Sample Size and Meaningful Gold Analysis USGS
· The ~·ach of this paper also differs frmn the work of Gy, de Magnee, and Prigogine in its us~ of relative approximately 50 percent larger or smaller than the gold content obtained by chemical analysis of a sample. Jiowever, because of random variation in gold content from sample to sample, it is impossible to be completely certain that the true gold content will be within a given
