The study identifies a mining reserve of 7.7 million tonnes of ore at grades of 1.80 grams per tonne ('g/t') gold, 15.9 g/t silver and 0.29% copper. Gold, silver and copper production over the mine life has been conservatively estimated to be 311,154 oz of gold, 1,959,109 oz of silver and 17,424,960 lbs of copper respectively. Under the JORC code the mining reserve is in the 'probable' mineral reserve category. Additional ore is expected to be found from the inferred ore within the current pit boundaries, extensions of the mineralisation already identified outside the pit and from old mine stockpiles produced from previous underground mining of the Gedabek deposit.
