Interpretation before resource estimation

Rockline’s work may form an interpretation layer within a broader exploration and resource-development workflow. It should not be confused with a Mineral Resource statement.

The general sequence

01 — Interpretation

02 — Target

03 — Validation

04 — Geological Model

05 — Resource Estimation

06 — Independent Reporting

EXPLORATION TARGET

A target is not a Mineral Resource

Where the available information supports it, an interpreted connected body may provide a basis for defining an exploration target for subsequent investigation.

However, an exploration target is not a Mineral Resource.

Further exploration is required to establish sufficient geological and analytical information for resource-related work.

DENSITY AND COMPOSITION

What volume interpretation does not establish

Interpretation of spatial volume does not establish:

  • Density
  • Grade
  • Mineralogical composition
  • Recovery
  • Metallurgical characteristics
  • Economic viability

These require independent investigation.

Professional responsibility

Rockline provides interpretation.

The responsibility for determining whether information is sufficient for Mineral Resource estimation or reporting belongs to the appropriately qualified professional under the applicable reporting framework.

Rockline does not act as a Competent Person or Qualified Person unless separately engaged and appropriately qualified for that role.

Send us the project location, area of interest and available exploration data. We will assess whether the available information is suitable for system-level interpretation.
