Let's take a look at this mornings video from SDRC.

Here we have Steve Dobson, the geologist from Western Frontier Exploration (a Third Party Contractor of Sidney Resources Corp) chipping off vein material underground to be sent off for a lab assay at Florin Analytical Services.



The video was 1 minute long, but was noted to have been recorded on the morning of the 31st, immediately after Gitreal last accused the company of basing projections off of "statistically invalid sample results." How these samples are chosen, nor how many samples will be collected before the company releases lab results, hasn't been made clear yet, but it looks like these particular samples are selected and gathered visually. From the looks of the video, and based on the sampling size recommended from the labs, this will also be collected in 5 gallon buckets until 50 lbs is attained. They will then crush and concentrate that down to a 1 oz sample to send to the lab. I am wondering if they will have FAS do some of these for them in order to compare theirs with a 3rd party’s so to simultaneously measure the effectiveness of their concentration process?

Anybody can ascertain information about FAS’s process of lab analysis, lead times, and what kind of reporting of results we can expect by going to Florin Analytical Services’s website. All their info and forms are public, and their process looks to be as thorough and good as I would expect any metallurgical lab to be. Lead times for sample analysis are typically 7-10 business days upon receipt but rush service can also be ordered.

It was November 8th that SDRC said they sent out the samples for analysis of the stockpiles, “taken from multiple regions, including the top, middle, and toe sections of each of the five stockpiles.” These are separate from the vein material showcased today. If testing has been ongoing since then, SDRC must have collected quite a bit of assay data already. It looks to me that we should be getting a detailed report sometime soon synthesizing all this data together. A preview of this can be found on FAS’s website, under the title of “FAS QA/QC Procedures”
