Important Information for US Investors
This presentation may use the terms “measured", “indicated“, “inferred" and “historical” mineral resources. U.S. investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. “Inferred mineral resources" and “historical estimates” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource or a historical estimate will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. Further, historical estimates are not recognized under Canada’s NI 43-101. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be converted to mineral reserves.
