Sorry Touchรฉ, I stand corrected.
It was actually a 1cm wide quartz vein at 16.84m depth, with a '0.5mm clot of visible gold'. This is why it was a 0.5-meter sample, likely their minimum sample length.
Nothing but the facts, jack!
You think you can mine a 1cm wide quartz vein? Even with a teaspoon you're looking at significant dilution...

Did you read the 43-101 report? Doesn't matter, you probably didn't understand it.
That sample was a resample of one of the historical drill intercepts that ran 141g/t over a 0.5 meter sample. Half a meter dufus, that's 1.6 feet. Skinny as hell. It it was probably a several inch-wide quartz vein with a few specks of visible gold in it. That does not make a mine, a deposit, or even an interesting prospect. It's nothing. You can't mine a several inch wide quartz vein with a few specks of VG.
The previous companies have already drilled 40 holes into THE TANNAHILL!!! and walked away. Why? Because it's a dog. Woof!
Looking forward to assays from 2,000 samples from the 17 drill holes. If those holes are anything like the little core we saw in the pics from the Timmins mining show (b o r i n g!), I can tell you that Atascama didn't hit anything of interest in their drilling. Why beat a dead horse to death? I don't get it. Are they ignorant doorknobs, frauds, jerks, and arseholes? They sure don't seem very bright. Like you, touchy-feely. lol.
But between me and you pal, I don't believe there was more than one short drill hole. And I'm not sure they assayed it because the core looked like shit.

You're a potty mouthed little bugger, ain't ya Juanita?
Well, when you can't hold your own in a technical discussion due to lack of education and/or intellect, there's always profanity. Typical liberal.
Hey, here's one thing that is not a lie, Atascama announced in a PR that they commenced a drilling campaign on THE TANNAHILL!!! project back in February. A month later they announced that 2,000 drill samples were collected and were being submitted to an assay lab with awesome 3-day assay turnaround.
Four months (120 days!) from the start of drilling not a single assay has been released either by PR or CEO's Corner. And that is no lie!!
Very, very curious that. Gotta make you wonder if they conducted any assays (maybe the drill core was as boring as you, Jacinta), or maybe they didn't even conduct any drilling at all and the Atascammers are pulling your legs? Funny joke, eh?
