Interesting write-up, you have a good feel for this stuff.

Now add a pH 12-13 environment with zeolyte and you start to get the
FL mixture. We may have 2 assay procedures, but the real key, if the
PGM's are there in quantity(Ag DEFINITELY is), will be:
a single recovery procedure that either works for both configurations and the mixture; or
separates the 2 economically and then extracts using different procedures.

There are some existing smarts in this area -- Sanguinetti for geology and my friend Wendell for assay / extraction.

Just wanted to extend my thanks to you and Rich M for your contribution to the thread.
