If they have a vested interest in the success of the assays, how can they be responsible for a COC? It seems like a conflict of interests to me...I'd rather have someone who doesn't even know why they're drilling where they're drilling...it needs to be done blindly by those doing it. I'd hate to see anyone sprinkle gold into the samples just to prove their technology :) Alex
