Dore bars are of varying grades from pour to pour, as they contain copper and other trace elemenets. SGR dore bars are estimated as usually being between 75% and 85% actual gold content - this is what we discovered when visiting the mine last year. The bars that are 99+ pure gold are those that come out of the processing facility in Ontario (Oakville, I believe?).
