The MILFORD MIRACLE tosses us a bone.......... This ought to freshen the board up a little bit as we assess our Christmas stocking.
"from a lot of approximately 500 tons recently produced at our mill"
I really think that the implication is that of a 500 ton accumulation received at Asarco that the following assay studies would have been applicable. Oh my, I am so amused by the sentence structure. Well, perhaps it means that part of 500 tons produced was shipped to Asarco and that these assay results pertain to that partial of the 500 tons produced. I am just not sure that I can draw any conclusions other than that the assay report looks promissing.
I just have to figure that the schools I went to taught a different kind of English or that the games continue or the exclusion of wording that would allow calculations of values have been intentionally omitted. Think so!
And this one: "This represents significant gold and silver above the average copper concentrate previously shipped and higher than the company had projected."
Who actually talks this way anyhow? How about adding a couple words so that the sentence really makes sense and means something. average contained in copper
