Sampling consisted of sawing the core in equal halves along the main axis and shipping one of the halves to the Activation Laboratories preparation in Dryden Ontario.  The samples are crushed and pulverized before being sent to Activation Laboratories analytical facility in Thunder Bay Ontario for analysis for gold by fire assay with ICP finish on 50 g aliquot.  All remaining elements were analyzed with an aqua regia digestion and multi-element ICP.  Champion Bear uses a comprehensive QA/QC protocol, including the insertion of blanks, standards and pulp duplicates.
