I was reading another forum and they are talking about 6-8 weeks, based on the fact that ALS Thunder Bay won't be fully functional until May. However, after checking the ALS Chemex website, it looks as if they are currently capable of running 20,000 samples per month, by doing the crushing in TB, then shipping the assays to Vancouver for analysis. That should speed things up nicely.

I guess it will depend on how they send the assays out to ALS - all at once, or as the cores are completed.
