- The Mineral Reserves have been estimated using the definitions of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM).
- The Mineral Reserves have been estimated using the following metal prices: $20.00/oz silver, $1.00/lb zinc, $0.95/lb lead using a revenue factor 1.00 pit shell as a basis for the pit design.
- Only pre-mineral tuff type of material has been considered as reserves.
- NSR Cutoff grades used are equal or higher than: $10.79/t.
- The effective date for these Mineral Reserves is 5 November 2019.
- Totals / Averages may not add up due to rounding of individual tonnes and grades.
- The tonnes and grades shown above are considered a Mineral Reserve because they have been demonstrated to be economically viable through the Corani Project financial model using the following metal prices: $18.00/oz silver, $1.10/lb zinc, $0.95/lb lead.
