Qualifying Statements
Au_Eq grade calculated using gold to silver ratio of 1:60. The gold: silver ratio is determined using metal price and recovery factors and determined according to the parameters
below:
– Au Price US$1500/oz
– Ag Price US$28/oz
– Au processing recovery 90%
– Ag processing recovery 80%
– Metal prices approximate three year averages for each of gold and silver.
– Processing recoveries were determined from updated metallurgical testwork carried out by independent consultants on diamond drill core from Casposo.
The equivalency factor is calculated by the formula:
Gold to Silver ratio = (gold price ÷ silver price) x (gold recovery ÷ silver recovery)
= (1500 ÷ 28) x (.90 ÷ .80)
= 60
Gold equivalency (Au_Eq) is calculated by the formula: Au_Eq g/t = Au g/t + (Ag g/t ÷ 60.00)
