re: Ann: TRF: Explains High Grade Exploration...
It's a reasonable amount of silver in just that core. For what it's worth, calculated as a single blob of native silver it represents a cube with sides of 2.3cm by my calcs. Could you miss that pasted over 17.6m peaking at 0.6% over 2m? Possibly on the initial core log. Would you not go back over the core and hunt for it after the assays? Presumably they did, hence the statement, the silver is not visible. My query - for what explanation can't it be "reliably detected" by the specific XRF unit they borrowed? Panning it is also an option they could have looked at if they thought it was native silver.
If the silver was ever native silver then it seems it is not now. The close correlation with copper goes some way to support that as well.
My head hurts and I might be calculating it wrong:
1750cm (length) x 6.4cm (diam HQ core) x Pi (volume of core) x 2.8 (SG for mass) x 0.0012 (1200ppm Ag) / 10 (SG Ag) ^1/3 (cube)= 2.3cm
