[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 397382, member: 4485"] Rock chip sampling is exactly how it sounds. Chips of surface rock outcrops that are potentially mineral bearing are collected & analysed. The "chips" could come from a variety of methods like geologist hammer, hammer & chisel, broken existing in-situ fragments etc. If favourable results are returned from rock chip samples exploration companies will then usually undertake other sampling programs like soil sampling then drilling based on the results from these.
