Does the industry accept resource model of Laterite Nickel deposits where the samples were assayed using Handheld XRF ?

If the samples were pulverized and homogenized before using the handheld XRF analyzer, you could get good information. If the sample was not pulverized, only you will have information on the surface of the drill core sample or hand rock chip, consequently, there will not be good and reliable information.
