Plow, that assay is from an August 8th, 2007 Press Release on Pringle Bench assays. The 5.22 Toz/tn value from Trench H was so high, they re-assayed and came up with ~ the same number. However (from p12 of the Annual report period ending Nov., 2008),
"It should be noted that Trench H revealed a 16.4 ft interval (sample number 07H03) with an erratic gold grade. The Company instructed ALS Chemex to re-assay the pulp of the specific sample which confirmed the previous gold value. The Company also decided to re-sample Trench H. Re-sampling did not reproduce the grades of the previous sampling campaign, but confirmed the presence of gold and antimony mineralization. The stibnite-quartz veins in the Nolan area are known to contain coarse gold which can result in a “nugget effect” when assayed."
I appreciate that it was and is an encourging assay, but it is ONE encouraging assay that has yet to be reproduced, hence, time to go back to that area find out what's really there.
