PhotonAssay™: Reporting Code Disclosure and the Route to Technology Adoption

What this note covers

• What CRIRSCO-based reporting codes (JORC, NI 43-101, PERC, SAMREC) actually require — and why “compliance” is the wrong question

• The correct disclosure framework for PhotonAssay™ across field sampling, laboratory preparation, assaying, and QA/QC

• The four-stage adoption journey — awareness, consideration, intent and implementation — and the role of the internal champion in moving an organisation through adoption

• Two recommended testwork approaches: the “Transitional Study” and “Heterogeneity Study” and when each is appropriate for due diligence

• How to interpret differences from fire assay, including why a positive difference in coarse-gold systems reflects a larger, more representative assay charge rather than analytical bias

• A review of some common barriers to adoption of PhotonAssay™
