To all Winspereans. I remember a few days ago someone ( I think you were associated with those post Mr. Metals) asking if there was a new 500kg sample of kimberlite being used in the caustic fusion analysis or was it the same old stuff already sifted. I don't recall anyone clearing it up so I asked Sophie to help me out. I have been informed that the C F A (not come from away) is being done on 500kg of the material already at the plant from which the diamond screening has already been completed. FYI below is her comments... >> The 500 kilogram sample we are currently waiting for constitutes 250 kg from each of the two pits where the two 100 tonne samples were extracted earlier this year. During the processing of the 200 tonnes, all diamonds below 1.2 mm were discarded. We kept 500 kg aside for caustic fusion analysis in order to recover those smaller stones to help build a grade-predictive model, against which we can compare all microdiamond results from future drill holes. << She could give no time on the expected results but said it would be SOON...(my emphasis). It is therefore clear that we will not see such grades and CPT from this as we did in the previous NR where all the big diamonds were counted and graded. What we are going to hear about is the grade expectation of the Micro diamonds below 1.2 mm. Would some one like to comment on how these result may help or hinder the markets expectation on WSP for the foreseeable future? Ray the Reaper
