Message: photo of leach pad on Tesoro

Some investors havent seen this, so I am reposting it again. By the coordinates given, this leach pad is in the area of the Zona Incognito on the Tesoro property.

Here is what a leach pad is used for;

Here is the photo;

It is hard to estimate a size of the pad from this photo, whereas it only shows a corner, but rough math may suggest a considerable size to 300 tons of ore and quite possibly much bigger. This this leach pad may have been used for metalurgics, in determining the recovery rate of gold from sulfides and/or disseminated gold within the host rock. We were told that most of the gold on the Tesoro was free milling and a nominal rate of return was around 90%, these figures and info arrived from data received from the ore sent to Dynacors mill. Since there has been no info publicly submitted about this leach pad, we can only speculate onto its true purpose, and I should add, that as far as I can tell, its showing the pad being on the Tesoro property, so because of this, I am assuming it is ours.

I should also mention, that there must be a sizable crusher nearby, or this leach pad of this size, may not be there. The amount of ore that a leach pad of this size could hold, would not be crushed by the primitive informale way, it would take an unreasonable amount of time to crush that much ore. So therefore, machinery most likely supplied/s this leach pad.

IMO
