| Indicated resource |
|
that part of a Mineral Resource for which tonnage, densities, shape,
physical characteristics, grade and mineral content can be estimated
with a reasonable level of confidence. It is based on exploration,
sampling and testing information gathered through appropriate
techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, working
and drill holes. The locations are too widely or inappropriately
spaced to confirm geological and/or grade continuity but are spaced
closely enough for continuity to be assumed |
| Inferred resource |
|
that part of a Mineral Resources for which tonnage, grade and
mineral content can be estimated with a low level of confidence. It
is inferred from geological evidence and assumed but not verified
geological and/or grade continuity. It is based on information
gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as
outcrops, trenches, pits, working and drill holes which may be
limited or of uncertain quality and reliability |
| Mineral resource |
|
a concentration [or occurrence] of material of economic interest in
or on the Earth’s crust in such form, quality and quantity that there
are reasonable and realistic prospects for eventual economic
extraction. The location, quantity, grade, continuity and other
geological characteristics of a Mineral Resources are known,
estimated from specific geological evidence and knowledge, or
interpreted from a well constrained and portrayed geological model.
Mineral Resources are sub-divided in order of increasing
confidence, in respect of geoscientific evidence, into Inferred,
Indicated and Measured categories |
