Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line

Mineral

back 5

any substance, extracted for value, occurring naturally in or on the Earth,
in or under water or in tailings, residues or stockpiles, having been formed
by or subjected to a geological process but excludes water, oil and gas.

front 6

Grade (a.k.a. quality)

back 6

Any physical or chemical measurement of the characteristics of the
material of interest in samples or product. The units of measurement
should be stated when figures are reported.

front 7

Cut-off Grade

back 7

- The lowest grade, or quality, of mineralized material that qualifies as
economically mineable and available in a given mineral deposit. May be
defined on the basis of economic evaluation, or on physical or chemical
attributes that define an acceptable product.

front 8

Tonnage (a.k.a. quantity or in volume)

back 8

An expression of the amount of material of interest irrespective of the
units of measurement (which should be stated when figures are reported).

front 9

Recovery (%)

back 9

The percentage of material of initial interest that is extracted during
mining and/or processing. A measure of mining or processing efficiency

front 10

Mineral Resource

back 10

a concentration or occurrence of solid
material of intrinsic economic interest in
or on the Earth’s crust in such form,
grade (or quality) and quantity that
there are reasonable prospects for
eventual economic extraction.

front 11

Mineral* Reserve

back 11

economically mineable part of a
Measured and/or Indicated Mineral
Resource; includes diluting materials
and allowances for losses, which may
occur when the material is mined or
extracted and is defined by Prefeasibility or Feasibility studies.

front 12

Exploration Target

back 12

a statement or estimate of the exploration potential of a mineral deposit in a
defined geological setting where the statement or estimate, quoted as a range
of tonnage and a range of grade (or quality),relates to mineralization for which
there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource

SCOPING STUDY

back 13

a.k.a. Conceptual Study

an initial appraisal carried out early in the life of a resource project based on
initial drilling and informed assumptions, and commonly include an elementary
mine plan.

PRE-FEASIBILITY STUDY

back 14

a.k.a. Preliminary Feasibility Study

◉ assessment of the Indicated and/or Measured Mineral Resources to determine if
it can be considered as an Ore Reserve that can be mined at a profit taking into
consideration relevant parameters such as:

FINAL FEASIBILITY STUDY

back 19

a.k.a. Comprehensive/Definitive/Bankable Feasibility Study

◉ detailed assessment to ascertain the technical reliability and economic viability
of a mining project covering the Ore Reserve verified by the Preliminary
Feasibility Study to come up with a sound investment decision and realistic
financing plan
