Not to mention that most evaluations of placer material do not even involve assays. Placer testing usually involves running bulk samples through the same kind of equipment that will be used to process the material. What is recovered in a wash plant or sluice setup is easy to separate using standard equipment like shaker tables - you weigh the recovered gold taking into account the original volume or weight of gravel processed, and voila, you have a grade (usually in grams/ton).
We have no idea if the bulk samples collected by Freddie were accurately weighed, how they were collected, by whom, or if larger boulders/cobbles were part of the equation (or were screened off prior to weighing). That is a mistake many operators make - the larger boulders have to be part of the equation. And I don't see any numbers for whatever coarse gold was recovered, only the concentrates.
It is all bogus.
