Chuca, I have shipped to Sabin. I do not ship there any more. I used to send them gold scrap from computers for refining, full of fiberglass etc that made lots of slag. I got very low results. Then one fine day I was called to another company to solve a problem in Kirkland Lake and they were milling and doing flotation on slag from Sabin. This slag had more than 1 ounce per ton gold in it. I also learned that they had been asked to do some baghouse dust that had over 3 OPT of gold in it, but they could not do it properly and demurred. I later heard they ship that dust to holland now. I was not given any slag credit or baghouse credit, so I xepct this material is in effect stolen from the clients. I also found out that by increasing the furnace temperature you can increase gold sumblimation on to the baghouse dust..... Now that is why I only do large batches now and use a house that give me both a slag and a dust check sample. Bill
