41(c) Quality control procedures.The author has no information on quality control procedures for sampleslisted in Tables 4 to 7.(d) Opinion on adequacy of sample preparation, security, analyticalprocedures.The author was not involved in the sampling program in Sept of 2010 or inMay of <strong>2011</strong> and has no opinion on sample preparation and security prior toanalyses. Analyses for REE were made by accepted and appropriate methods bymajor laboratories and leaching for loosely-held REE was done by a variant of astandard method (Chi (1988), Chi and Tian (2008)).12 DATA VERIFICATION(a) Data verification by qualified person.A principal purpose of the property visit by the author was to re-collect soilsfrom some sites where samples taken by J. Ishikawa in September 2010 werefound to contain easily-leachable REE (Table 4 and 7). Work done forverification purposes included re-analysis of three samples collected by J.Ishikawa in 2010, analysis of samples re-collected at 4 of the Ishikawa sites andat several other sites, two samples were checked for the identity of the clayminerals, two samples were screened for size distribution, and two soil samplesand one syenite were thin-sectioned and examined by petrographic microscope.Samples were exported on Export Permit EP 02911, issued by theCommissioner for Mines and Minerals of <strong>Malawi</strong> on 23August of <strong>2011</strong>.All analyses were done by ALS Chemex at their North Vancouver laboratory(2103 Dollarton Hwy, North Vancouver, BC, V7H 0A7) except for leachprocedure ME-MS04 which was done at their Perth laboratory (ALS Ammtec, 6Macadam Place, Balcatta, Western Australia, 6021). Both laboratories have ISO9001 accreditation, and also have ISO 17025 accreditation for their mostcommon procedures, but not for ME-MS81, MS-ICP06 or the selective leachesOne syenite rock analyzed for total REE was first crushed with procedureCRU-31 (fine crush below 2 mm) and it and the soils were then pulverized by
