This looks interesting--a cash up front ore buyer

I would be ...... Careful.......
 

Read the posting again.....It says "All proceeds go to charity". Scam?
 

I feel like i actually saw this posted on a facebook page earlier too.... Hmm :icon_scratch:



Edit: Just double checked it. He DID post to a facebook group earlier today too. 5 hours ago in fact. And hes a new member of that group as well. Paul Jones, has a picture of a rooster as his profile pic. Not a lot of info...

Paul Jones = Rooster Profile pic
Coincidence, Crazy Chicken's first post? Triple Cs.. .Look out!

You may go eat a bag of "rooster" of any size that can only be rounded down to the nearest metric ton.

Spamtackular.
 

Sure I'll send him a ton of ore....after the check clears for all the shipping!

Colorado prospectors, same post. Weird!

not really. some people even post on things like facebook :tongue3: never figured why,
when they have Tnet to post on. but I guess there is no accounting for Taste
 

So, to evaluate the OP's question, Link to eBay Item

not an expert only an enthusiast. the ebay item-- offer to test and buy Ore, it does not look professional
it does not give any indication of experience, the photos look to be taken from the main
photographer for a Mining Magazine. (copyrights?) Someone with little or no money
this might be a way to get something going, But, someone with proven Ore would find a processor
seems to be that this guy wants to set himself up as the middle man, possibly?,
All of what he is offering can be done yourself, have an assay done, find someone to refine or process your ore.
I sent him a message, sill didn't get a feeling of professionalism.

> Your message
I'm interested,
what type of tests are done on the Ore?
what types of extraction are you familiar with?
do you have references or know people in the mining community?
can the small amounts processed be scaled up to tonnage at a profit?
what is your experience? Thanks, Dennis

Hydrometallurgy: Chemical digestion and recovery Liquid liquid separation primarily. Other methods as appropriate.
Essentially turn everything to ionic "soup" and selectively removing the desired ions by several methods including a plasma furnace.
Precious metals and rare earths primarily. Professional field experience with ocean dredges, hard rock underground and surface crushing to rod mills size reduction, mechanical separation, flotation, spirals and chemically. Many ores have values that far exceed what has been initially identified because most small scale or part time miners lack the capability to identify or exploit them.

PMS has the background to do the work with their own equipment and their own money. We take a small sample and go through all the steps. If there is a probability of success we make an offer to purchase the materials. At no point do we request any funds from anyone for this work.
In this ad I put a $2. "buy it now" fee, which went directly to charity, to stop someone from sending a bucket of floor sweepings. There are some very unique folks out there.
The only expense to the sender is the shipping fees. I suggest the two pounds come by Post Office to keep their costs down.
I don't spend others money. HOPE THIS HELPS, REGARDS
