Chucka, Let us use the .007 figure x 1 short ton = 2000 lb /8.31 lb/gal=240.67 gal per st of water. One troy oz = 31.1 gm. .007x 31.1 = 0.2177 gm/st. Then at a rate of 400 gal/day/240 gal per ton= .362 gm per day x 7 day=2.5 gm/wk or 10 gm per month. In three months they could have an ounce. What we do is have the AZDOM monitor the process for 3 months, and then poke the one ounce down their throat and hope they choke!! Of course, it would probably be contaminated with a significant amount of platinum, but they would think it was all gold and die happy!! I do not have my chemical handbook handy, so I cannot tell if gold is soluble to that extent. I suspect that it is. If Sonny Lamont says it it, then I will believe him. There could also be colloidal gold involved. BTW 34,285 gal per day would yield one ounce of gold per day. That is less than your average railroad tank car. How much water is in the mine? Perhaps they better pump the water into a reservoir, they might need it later for processing. Might be an economic way to "dewater" the mine and startup "hardrock" operations. Thomas values AU .205 oz/ton PT .863 oz/ ton average value of assays on the Oro Grande! Also .128 value for PD and extremely high anomalous values for OS and IR multiple oz/ton for both. It has been my theory for a long time that the alluvial deposits near the H. Project have their origin in the area of the Oro Grande and the Rich Hill district. I would suspect high values of OS and IR in the H. Project pile if that is so. Perhaps no one has looked for it as those elements are not in great demand. Tharsgoldinthewater, Jack!!
