NOTES
The 2019 in pit Resources, with a $7.5 per ton cutoff, were used as the feed for the sorting scanners.
Ore accept percentages are the material passing the sort. Initially a higher grade cutoff is used to determine the mill feed.
A second sort could be performed at lower cutoff to produce a stockpile for later processing.
Initial feed is material accepted by the scanners before any stockpile sorting is done.
It supplies the initial mine life. Stockpile material would be processed following the initial feed.
Metal recoveries are the amount of the metal in the resource that would be contained in the sort percent.
Mining and Milling costs are taken from the 2019 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).
The PEA base calls for the mining of 150,000 tons of mill feed and 150,000 tons of stockpile for a total of 300,000 tons,
which would become the feed for the sorting scanners.
Costs are net by-products for the particular metal.
Disclaimers: The preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature, and includes inferred resources that are considered too speculative
geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary
economic assessment will be realized.
An inferred mineral resource is that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence and sampling.
Geological evidence is sufficient to imply but not verify geological and grade or quality continuity. An inferred mineral resource has a lower level of confidence than that
applying to an indicated mineral resource and must not be converted to a mineral reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of inferred mineral resources could be
upgraded to indicated mineral resources with continued exploration.
Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
