Note: The Mineral Resource has been classified as Inferred due to the lack of QAQC on the historic drilling and due to
uncertainty as to the extent of historic mining. Differences may occur due to rounding
A total of 180 diamond and reverse circulation (RC) drill holes were used to compile the resource
estimate (Table 3).
