Definitions of resources and reserves are based on National Instrument 43-101, as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities.
2
Definitions of resources and reserves are based on the Australasian Code for the Reporting of Identified Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves
issued by the Joint Committee for the Australasian Institute of Geoscientists and the Australian Mining Industry Council.
3
Formerly known as Chocolate Reef.

Note that, in most cases, the grade of resources is lower than the grade for reserves, but in this case, the grade of the less economic material is higher,
leading to the paradox of a higher resource grade.
