In response to "1 ounce is 28 grams. -- nm" by loosilu

this caused one of my favourite geology screwups. 1 troy ounce is 31.1035 grams. someone at a company I once reviewed didn't know the difference.

assay results are reported in grams per tonne, total contained metal is reported in troy ounces. so they accidentally over-reported their resource by like 10% by converting to ounces instead of troy ounces.
