Bill, Quite interesting, and in general I like what you wrote here. One thing though, I don't think the words "actually predict" are quite right in looking for oil, or ore deposits either. There still are a lot more misses than hits. Thanks for the interest in my stated facts, but as stated in the previous question, I am not the best source of any of this information. (Also your statement is not correct after you change my present day gold grade down to less than 0.1 ounce and as low as 0.3 (and lower). That puts it commonly at less than 1/10th of what was commonly mined in the past. Anyway, try the US Bureau of Mines (Washington DC) for better statistics. Lanny
