Modifying Factors definition

Modifying Factors means the considerations used to convert Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves. These include, but are not restricted to mining, processing, metallurgical, infrastructure, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social and governmental factors.
Modifying Factors means, under S-K 1300, are the factors that a qualified person must apply to Indicated and Measured Mineral Resources and then evaluate in order to establish the economic viability of Mineral Reserves. A qualified person must apply and evaluate modifying factors to convert Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources to Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves. These factors include, but are not restricted to: mining; processing; metallurgical; infrastructure; economic; marketing; legal; environmental compliance; plans, negotiations, or agreements with local individuals or groups; and governmental factors. The number, type and specific characteristics of the modifying factors applied will necessarily be a function of and depend upon the mineral, mine, property, or project.
Modifying Factors means considerations used to convert Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves. These include, but are not restricted to, mining, processing, metallurgical, infrastructure, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social and governmental factors. “MRE” means a Mineral Resource estimate. “Mtpa” means million tonnes per annum. “NPV” means net present value. “Pre-Feasibility Study” means a comprehensive study of the viability of a mineral project that has advanced to a stage where the mining method, in the case of underground mining, or the pit configuration, in the case of an open pit, has been established and an effective method of mineral processing has been determined, and includes a financial analysis based on reasonable assumptions of technical, engineering, legal, operating, economic, social, and environmental factors and the evaluation of other relevant factors which are sufficient for a Qualified Person, acting reasonably, to determine if all or part of the Mineral Resource may be classified as a Mineral Reserve. A Pre-Feasibility Study is at a lower confidence level than a Feasibility Study. “Probable Mineral Reserve” means the economically mineable part of an Indicated and, in some circumstances, a Measured Mineral Resource demonstrated by at least a Pre-Feasibility Study. The confidence in the Modifying Factors applying to a Probable Mineral Reserve is lower than that applying to a Proven Mineral Reserve. “Proven Mineral Reserve” means the economically mineable part of a Measured Mineral Resource demonstrated by at least a Pre-Feasibility Study. A Proven Mineral Reserve implies a high degree of confidence in the Modifying Factors. “QP” or “Qualified Person” means a “qualified person” as defined by NI 43-101. “t” or “tonne” means a measure of weight equal to 1,000 kilograms or 2,204 pounds. “waste” means barren rock in a mine, or mineralized material that is too low in grade to be mined and milled at a profit. “wmt” means wet metric tonne.
