Notes:
The resource was estimated using an Ordinary Kriging algorithm by Golder Associates.
The screened recovery (Rec) has been applied to the models. Head grades and tonnages are for all material less than 2 mm in diameter. Davis Tube Concentrate (DTC) grades are for the magnetically recoverable portion of the sample. Head grades were estimated using samples weighted by Rec.
The Davis Tube Recovery (DTR) is a laboratory scale representation of the expected metallurgical recovery of the processing plant.
