22.0 ECONOMIC A NALYSIS<br />

22.1 I NTRODUCTION<br />

This PEA is preliminary in nature and includes Inferred Mineral Resources that<br />

are considered too speculative geologically, on which to apply economic<br />

considerations to categorize them as mineral reserves. There is no certainty<br />

that this PEA will be realized.<br />

This PEA has been <strong>com</strong>pleted to a +/-40% level of accuracy.<br />

An economic evaluation of the <strong>Wellgreen</strong> project was prepared by Tetra Tech based<br />

on a pre-tax financial model. For the 37-year LOM and 405 Mt Indicated Resources<br />

and Inferred Resources, the pre-tax financial model was based on the following:<br />

• LME three year trailing metal prices, effective date July 6, 2012 (see Table<br />

22.1).<br />

• Cdn$/US$ exchange rate based on a two year forecast, in effect Q2 2012<br />

(Source: Foreign Exchange Consensus Forecasts (FECF) effective date<br />

April 10, 2012) (see Table 22.2).<br />
