You would love it if there was a 100 to 1 ratio reduction. You would love it if GPGI was a total failure. I suspect you are not even short but are just a negative person.

The fact is that the Hassayampa pile of 500,000+ tons ( really much more) is head ore. Head ore is defined as raw ore which has been screened (in this case) to one half to three quarters inch mesh. This size material can be run through the ball mill with subsequent leaching etc. It is not necessary to screen the ore with a lower mesh in order to process the Hassayampa ore. If you wanted to remove the half inch material the reduction of the Hassaympa material would result in a loss of perhaps 10-20%. But in that case you might lose some values. Where in blazes did you get your 100 to 1 ratio. You are either stupid, evil, destructive or a shill.
