TOUCHSTONES-GOLD® Collaborative Design
Welcome to the TOUCHSTONES-GOLD* design web site.
Your interests in large-scale, Archean silicate systems; in predictive models for gold deposits are welcome. Also welcome are related interests in
-technical-scientific, quality control, QA/QC, "data verification" issues; risk, project feasibility, mineral economic and metal market analyses;
-applied probability and statistics;
-physicochemical geology, thermodynamics (equilibrium, nonequilibrium; reversible, irreversible; linear, nonlinear; classical / CIT, rational or extended /EIT; continuum);
-mineral resource management and public policy issues.
You might visit the mission statement for planned collaborative R & D on other deposits (copper, zinc, silver, VMS - associated; copper, nickel, PGE platinum-group, massive sulphides, diamonds). Please send along your comments or your R & D interests. Thank you for visiting!

ANNUAL SUMMARY
2007: We've moved! Wawa, Ontario is an exceptional location for its scenic attractions and its convenient position in the Northern Ontario, Archean project area.
a) fieldwork for control (standard, blank) sample extraction, site analysis;
b) comprehensive whole-rock, petrographic and petrofabric analyses;
c) industrial nomenclature, classification systems and adaptations
d) Ontario-portfolio screening and generation (existing development work, exploration projects, prospects and under-recognized gold potential).
2006: Visualization, Geo-statistical and Mineral Economic (Feasibility) Algorithm Development- Zone- to System-Scale (continuing)
2005: Design conformance, documentation and technical editing (continuing)
2004: TOUCHSTONES-GOLD® improved design and predictive capability to 2% level of significance at 0.91 power of test (from 5% sig., 0.90 pwr.). Together with high resolution of system characteristics and system distributions, the new design will close the gap between R & D and field applications. Under-recognized mineral potential (highest) is indicated at 9% of the system population in a "mature" terrain. This will mark the "discrete" design improvement over the state-of-art.
