1 · The exploration for any minor mineral deposit involves two stages namely, General Exploration (C2) and Detailed Exploration (C1): These stages of exploration lead to resource categories namely Inferred Mineral Resource and Indicated/ Measured Mineral Resource respectively reflecting the degree of geological assurance 2_ General Exploration (C2) involves the initial delineation of an identified deposit. Methods used include surface mapping, pittingl trenching/ drilling, followed by sampling for evaluation of mineral quantity and quality (including mineralogical tests on laboratory scale if required), and limited interpolation based on indirect methods of investigation: The objective is to establish the main geological features of a deposit; giving a reasonable indication of continuity and providing an initial estimate of size, shape, structure and grade. 3_ Detailed Exploration (C1) involves the detailed three-dimensional delineation of a known deposit achieved through sampling, such as from outcrops, pits, trenches, boreholes, shafts and tunnels etc. Sampling grids are closely spaced such that Size, shape, structure, grade and other relevant characteristics of the deposit are established with a high degree of accuracy. Processing tests involving bulk sampling may be required 4_ Mineral Resource is a concentration O occurrence of solid material of 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: The location, quantity, grade or quality, continuity and other geological characteristics of a Mineral Resource are known, estimated or interpreted from specific geological evidence and knowledge, including sampling: Mineral Resources are subdivided, in order of increasing geological confidence into Reconnaissance, Inferred, Indicated and Measured resource categories which are defined as follows:- (a) Inferred Mineral Resource is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence and sampling achieved through a stage of preliminary exploration: An Inferred Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and shall not be converted to a Mineral Reserve.
