Norasa Mineral Reserve Estimate

The Mineral Reserve Estimate was prepared using industry best practise and reported in accordance with the NI 43-101 (OSC 2011) guidelines. The Mineral Reserve is based on pit optimisations using the resource models discussed previously and applying modifying factors such as costs and mining and metallurgical factors determined to be appropriate for the deposits and scale of operation to a feasibility study level of accuracy.

The Mineral Reserve Estimate for Norasa is tabulated below and has been assigned confidence levels of Proven and Probable Reserve using the guidelines within the NI 43-101. Mineral Resources that are not Minerals Reserves have not demonstrated economic viability, or have not fulfilled the company’s strategic criteria of cut-off grade.
