JLA,

<<I understand the last two hole results are tainted, according to Ledoux, due to a change in the assay procedure which was instituted by Mr. Norton. Comments are welcome. >>

The results were tainted, according to LeDoux, because of their negligence in how they rotated the gold and silver used as collectors.
Unless Norton was in the lab doing the rotating(which of course he wasnt) then it certainly isnt his fault that Ledoux supposedly committed such a grievous yet simple error, your implications of Norton's fault aside.

The real question you should be asking is how a supposedly world class operation such as LeDoux could commit such a simple error? I find the "convienance" of their excuse to be interesting, and wonder if it could up to more extensive scrutiny. I certainly would like to find out, and wonder if others would too?

Mark

Sounds like some DD needs to be done. What did happen in Venezuela?
Find out and let us know.

How does a change in the prescribed procedure taint only one labs tests and not the two others? Sounds more like getting brought to task by checks and balances.

When it suits you, your rail against the fact that we have no word, no written confirmation about the past results, now you assume they are correct to make your point. Make up your mind what you believe.

If you can post anything factual, anything which you have checked that causes true concern about Mr. Nortons credentials, I want to hear that, but more of the same tired old song with no back up is really getting old.
