Seriously, a number of posters feel that with a standard lead fire assay that the gold could be recovered with "conventional gold processing". Does anyone know which conventional gold process will work on this ore?

Conventional processes for a placer deposit involves some form of dredging or sluicing along with gravity tables etc.

Conventional hard rock techniques include heap leach or various different process including possibly roasting, vat leaching, floatation, gravity, attrition, thickening, etc. etc.

Conventional does not necessarily mean cheap. Does anyone know the answer.
