They had a recovery test done in 1992 at the Crater-Cone Stuff...I just saw the results in a file...had four sets of floation type numbers ...all over the board from low ( but economic) to like..one opt + AU. So, maybe they wil have a consistant process and or make that dam roosting chicken into Chicken L'Orange! And serve my favorite Ruth Wakefield Toll House Cookies for dessert ( or is it desert) The Old News Release was like...well, the tailings were tested at ....from - 0.03 up to a tailing figure of 0.41 OPT AU from cinder ore in that first mini plant I was talking about from times in the past. I found the old news release. It is old history no need to talk any other details, but waiting for the NEW NEWS NOW! Hang Tuff MGAU: DATE: November 30, 1992 MARIAH-GUILD MARK ANNOUNCE PILOT MILL TEST RESULTS Mariah International and Guild Mark Industries, a Phoenix-based Joint Venture, announced completion of pilot mill bulk testing of their gold recovery process today. The companies reported 124 tons of ore processed resulting in a recovery of 11.4 ounces of refined gold ingot. Assay comparisons of the head ore with the actual ounces of gold recovered indicate a recovery rate of 70.4 percent. Company president Lawrence Olson stated that the gold was recovered from ore taken from the joint venture's Merrill Crater property. According to geologist John Rud, the company has identified proven mineable reserves of 5.5 million tons at an average grade of .142 ounces of gold per ton, with a production cost not exceeding $150 per ounce. Because extensive testing the company has completed on this type of ore has shown it to be relatively homogeneous, the Merrill Crater's probable reserves are in excess of 500 million tons of this mineralized material. The joint venture retained the services of several firms, well known within the mining industry, including Alpine Assay of Twin Falls, Idaho, Deister Flotation Company, David Fell and Company, and General Kinematics of Chicago. These firms were instrumental in the construction of the pilot mill and completion of the test run. Based on these results, and geologist Rud's recommendations, the Mariah - Guild Mark joint venture is proceeding with discussions regarding financing the construction and operation of a full scale production facility and finalizing permits for operations on properties currently owned or under claim. For more specific information pertaining to this announcement, please contact Lawrence Olson, president and CEO of Mariah International and Guild Mark Industries. ...>>> Remember 1992 Chuca ( General Kinematics was that the one used by Dale Runyon and invented the Vibra Mill in which Maxam Gold bought two and installed them at Peoria -7 Mill Site? ) Yes!
