Tim, there have been a lot of holes drilled but only to 5 ft.

>Although we have only sampled to a depth of five feet, our research indicates that the mountain is quite homogenous in mineralization.<

The crater is a cinder cone, not a rock pile.

Try as I might, I can't find a site for the USGA that doesn't have "golf" in it.

Can you direct me to a site that might expand on your definition of "ore?"

Ore. The naturally occurring material from which a mineral(s) (metal) of economic value can be extracted at a reasonable profit.

IOW, in order to make sure that you have an orebody of X tons, you must do enough exploration to prove that X tons exist and that they contain X quantity of recoverable metals per ton.

You must also do a study that will confirm that the metals can be recovered at a profit in a commercial operation.
