Denis. don't expect to hear of quality of the stones any time soon. I think that Ashton would be happy if they NEVER report the % gem quality stones. The diamond industry has been very secretive about things like this. It is the Canadian diamond play that has started to change this. In the pursuit of financings and promotion companies like Winspear have thrown out industry standard, in many categories for the reporting of results. (ie: reporting a couple hundred kg sample in carats per ton.). This has led investors to want and demand more info. from reporting companies. This however can often be detremental to the long term objectives of the company! I am guessing but I think that ACA may comment on the % of gem quality stones after a full bulk sample has been taken. I will try and confirm this sometime next week!
