I totally forgot about the higher grade! Thanks for the reminder. Those boulders must be HEAVY!

Our geologist, Cesar Lemas, has spent the last few weeks analyzing all aspects at the mine and has produced a technical report which includes an operating plan. The Santa Elena mine has processed 16,000 tons of ore from Vein 2 which was the blasted material to a depth of 5 meters. New mineralized material is now being mined from the Julio structure. A low angle shear zone has just been uncovered at the footwall of the main Julio vein. This ore is being hauled directly to the pad after adding the required lime for PH control. Most of this material is pad ready and crushing is not needed. Samples from this new material were collected randomly and analyzed by Mr. Lemas at a local fire assay laboratory. One duplicate was split and pulverized then fire assayed in 10 gram portions. Results returned an average of 5 g/t Au and 18 g/t Ag. Quartz vein boulders from this system are being treated separately to be crushed and sampled. This material will be processed as high grade or hauled to the leach pad based on the results.

Next time you guys decide on pulling an all nighter, let me know! I see you guys were up burning the midnight oil last night and I missed out on all the fun.
