By rereading some of the recent pressreleases, I see there is an "highly"-oxidized cap, but that the 50-tonne bulk sample was taken from exposed "fresh"(I have never seen this term used before and I follow about 100 gold exploration companies)rock below the cap. I also note in one release that the cap would have higher gold values than those found below (this seems to be born out by high earlier values such as 390 grans per tonne etc,....and the value of 3.2 grams per tonne in the bulk sample). So, will the drilling now apparently underway provide more cap information or underlying rock information or both?? As an example, Anatolia (ANO)(which I also own)today announced drill results from their Copler property where they drill selectively for cap gold values and supergene copper values etc. How about someone here giving us an idea as to what Rennie is targeting on the present drill program. Cheers, jrg

Fresh is a common word to use to mean non-oxidized rock below the weathered layer. It is a geo's term.

The one thing I fear from the high grade samples and the low grade bulk is that the zone is spread artificially (by combining the bulk into one one mass) over a wide area, where in reality it may be one narrow richer zone.

And yes, that is commonly why an oxidized sample is higher grade than a fresh rock sample. But the very high differential is suspiciouser still. Sounds like some of those samples were as they say "selected".

Them's the breaks.

My bet is that the entire zone is not pervasively mineralized with gold.
