On March 7th, 2012 Edgewater announced that Tetra Tech had been engaged
to complete a NI43-101 compliant Feasibility Study on the Corcoesto
Gold Project. Initial Feasibility planning meetings as well as site
visits by Tetra Tech personnel have now been completed. Additional
work on-going in support of the Feasibility Study includes detailed
metallurgical testing and geotechnical studies.
Sample preparation and analyses are conducted using industry standard
practices. Samples are delivered to Chemex Lab in Seville, Spain and
sample analyses completed at independent commercial facilities of ALS
Romania for Au and ALS Canada (Vancouver) for As. Both labs have the
certificate of ISO/IEC 17025:2005. Sampling and analyses include a
rigorous Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) program
consisting of the insertion of blanks, duplicate samples, and check
assays. A review of the QA/QC results shows no significant bias and
all results are considered highly reliable.
