No, you misunderstood not only the drilling, but what I said about it, and what I concluded about what you said about it.

It is not true that saying it is false that it is uneconomic is tantamount to saying that it is economic. This is not zero sum, binary concept. The correct response is that it is undetermined. You are wrong to say what you did, as you are not a mining engineer, or any other qualified person under 43-101 guidelines. Moreover, you did not qualify what you said, at that time, as being merely your amateur opinion.

The SGH does not tell you depth. And it is unlikely to work well on disturbed ground. It may not work well on deposits just below the surface, either. There is much to be learned about it. That said, when your drill core does not explain the geochemical anomaly, the further test is to do more drilling. Again, it is premature to conclude anything, because science does not prove negatives.
