I think otherwise. I think the info Falon posted about Gold extraction from placer sands is very useful. It shows that even novices can get before unexpected Gold from sands thanks to new REE magnets. Also, the part about the Yuba City, Ca. bulk processor whom extracted 2-3 ounces/ day from sands other smaller miners had already processed and discarded. Now couple these facts with the major Fact Sney has A Beckmann , a leading innovator in REE extraction and Gold refinement from sands, and I think it shows us that Sney will be getting every usable spec of Gold and other PMs out of what a lot would normally not bother with. That attention to maximum processing, I feel, can be the difference in success levels for a miner the size of SNEY.
