The NiEq value was assigned to all sample intervals to assist with the geological<br />

interpretation of the mineralization of both the West and East Zones. The NiEq value<br />

is based on a long range pricing index updated quarterly. At the time the resource<br />

models were <strong>com</strong>pleted, the following <strong>com</strong>modity prices were used:<br />

• nickel – US$9.40/lb<br />

• copper – US$2.96/lb<br />

• cobalt – US$15.80/lb<br />

• gold – US$1,200/ troy oz<br />

• platinum – US$1938/ troy oz<br />

• palladium – US$816 troy oz<br />

The equation for the NiEq value is as follows:<br />

NiEq = ((Ni grade x Ni price x 22.04622) + (Cu grade x Cu price x 22.04622) +<br />

(Co grade x Co price x 22.04622) + (Au grade x Au price x 0.02916) + (Pt grade x<br />

Pt price x 0.02916) + (Pd grade x Pd price x 0.02916)) / (Ni price x 22.04622)<br />

Recovery has been assumed to be 100% in situ on all metals, as there has been no<br />

metallurgical recovery testing <strong>com</strong>pleted on the targeted material at the time the<br />

resource model was constructed.<br />

Sectional interpretations were digitized in Datamine Studio 3 (v. 3.19.3638.0)<br />

software, and these interpretations were linked with tag strings and triangulated to<br />

build three dimensional solids. Table 14.6 tabulates the solids and associated<br />

volumes. The solids were validated in Datamine and no errors were found.<br />

The zones of mineralization interpreted for each area were generally contiguous.<br />

However, due to the nature of the mineralization, there are portions of the wireframe<br />

that have grades less than 0.2% but are still within the mineralizing trend.<br />

The non-assayed intervals were assigned void (-) value. Tetra Tech believes that<br />

non-assayed material should not be assigned a zero value, as this does not reflect<br />

the true value of the material.<br />
