Appendix 2: Reporting checklist<br />

1.0 - Reporting Criteria for Sampling Techniques and Data<br />

Item Criteria Essential Reporting Queries<br />

1.1<br />

1.2<br />

Sampling<br />

Techniques<br />

Drilling<br />

Techniques<br />

Has the nature and quality of sampling (e.g.<br />

cut channels, random chips, etc) and<br />

measures taken to ensure sample<br />

representativeness been noted?<br />

Has the drill type used (e.g. core, reverse<br />

circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air<br />

blast, auger, Bangka etc.) and the details of<br />

this <strong>drilling</strong> (e.g. core diameter, triple or<br />

standard tube, depth of <strong>diamond</strong> tails, face<br />

sampling bit or other type, whether core is<br />

oriented and if so, by what method, etc.) been<br />

specified?<br />

Were the core and chip sample recoveries<br />

properly recorded and results assessed?<br />

Yes, Item 13<br />

LG, JFT<br />

Yes, Item 14, the<br />

recovery is recorded in<br />

Gemcom databases<br />

and all the core is<br />

photographed<br />

1.3<br />

Drill Sample<br />

Recovery<br />

Were measures taken to maximize sample<br />

recovery and ensure representative nature of<br />

the samples?<br />

SAMREC- (Sect A:<br />

Criteria 3)<br />

Yes, Item 13 and 14,<br />

the sample recovery is<br />

cheked during the<br />

<strong>drilling</strong> and logging<br />

SME- (Criteria B.3)<br />

LG, JFT<br />

Is there a relationship between sample<br />

recovery and grade and has sample bias<br />

occurred due to preferential loss/gain of<br />

fine/coarse material?<br />

The recovery is<br />

excellent and there is<br />

no relationship between<br />

sample recovery and<br />

the REE grade.<br />

LG, JFT<br />

1.4 Logging<br />

Have core and chip samples been logged to a<br />

level of detail to support appropriate Mineral<br />

Resource estimation, mining studies and<br />

metallurgical studies?<br />

CIM-(<strong>43</strong>-<strong>101</strong>-Item<br />

14)<br />

Yes, Item 14, complete<br />

logging information are<br />

recorded in Gemcom<br />

databases<br />
