"Three massive differences between BBX's ground and OGX's: our grades are 10 times theirs at ~360g/t, their reef is 50cm wide while ours is 600 metres, and theirs is an underground mine and our orebody starts at surface."
Three massive differences between OGX's Cascavel gold mine,

1) Cascavel's ore responds to conventional assay techniques and they've just got all approvals and built a laboratory on their project that can run 80 samples per batch whereas grades from BBX's properties are determined by an unconventional suite of metallurgical processes involving unknown amounts of energy consumption and unknown quantities of acid and which rely on the collection of bulk samples weighing 5-7 kg for all sample types.

2) The tenements surrounding Cascavel have attracted a JV with AngloGold Ashanti a global gold producer with 21 operations in four continents whereas the BBX tenements have failed to gain traction outside of a very closed group of investors and internet warrior who is prepared to continue to publish completely unsubstantiated information like this piece of unsubstantiated tripe...."their reef is 50cm wide while ours is 600 metres".

3) Thirdly and most importantly the gold in the rock samples at Cascavel is clearly there and visible to the naked eye as in these nice examples below show



whereas in BBX's core and rock samples, despite having reported visible metallic coloured amalgams and metallic flecks in the rock samples (and also possibly visible metal sulphides) there has never been any petrographic reporting on what these supposed alloys, flecks and sulphides are and the only direct proof aside from some very small amounts of gravity recoverable gold is the opaque metallurgical technique producing those metal buttons and spectra from 2micron wide electron beams that don't constitute a properly weighted measure of the concentration/grade of the metals in the rock because the scanning electron microscope that was used can not detect the presence of oxygen which is a major constituent of all silicate rocks.
