Ann: Gold Extraction Results from Ema and Tres Estados, page-18

Your question is reasonable.
One other thing I need clarification on. We have in the latest extraction trial a hydro leach process followed by a pyro smelting process. With leaching presumably we end up with a solution, and you cant smelt a solution. So I am presuming what we have is an initial leaching step, then presumably an intermediate step which causes the gold/silver to precipitate out of solution as a residue ( whatever this residue is chemically is not clear), this residue then being subjected to a smelting process to recover metallic Au and Ag. Anm I right?
