Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves

Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are the basis for the future viability of a mining company’s operations. They form the basis for the mines’ long-term mining plans and are the underlying data for many of the company’s major investments. Mineral Reserves are reduced every year through mining activities and new additions to the Resources and Reserves are, therefore, vital to the viability of the operations.

A Mineral Resource is a concentration or occurrence of solid material of economic interest in or on the Earth’s crust in such form, grade or quality and quantity that there are reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction.

Mineral Resources are subdivided, in order of increasing geological confidence, into Inferred, Indicated and Measured Mineral Resources, as indicated in Figure below.

A Mineral Reserve is the economically mineable part of a Measured and/or Indicated Mineral Resource.

It includes diluting materials and allowances for losses, which may occur when the material is mined or extracted and is defined by studies at Pre-Feasibility or Feasibility level as appropriate that include application of Modifying Factors. Such studies demonstrate that, at the time of reporting, extraction could reasonably be justified.

Mineral Reserves are sub-divided in order of increasing confidence into Probably Mineral Reserves and Proved Mineral Reserves

Boliden reports Mineral Reserves exclusive of Mineral Resources to avoid double counting. This means that quantities converted to Mineral Reserve are removed from Mineral Resource.

Boliden’s method of reporting Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves intends to comply with the Pan-European Standard for reporting of Exploration results, Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (The PERC Reporting standard 2017). It is an international reporting standard that has been adopted by the mining associations in Sweden (SveMin), Finland (FinnMin) and Norway (Norsk Bergindustri), to be used for exploration and mining companies within the Nordic counties.

Have you always thought of the time machine as an impossible invention from science fiction films? Think again! Soon, we’ll be able to look back billions of years and witness the beginning of the universe itself! The James Webb Space Telescope, or JWST, is the future of space and time exploration. A joint effort between  the   National Aeronautics and Space Administration   ( NASA ) , the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), JWST really is an international triumph in teamwork.             They are getting it ready for its October 2018 launch date when it will d...

 10.10.2020. Culturestudy Lesson 6 Theme: Portrait of a british family. Family traditions and values. Read the text and answer the questions Family The average British family has classically been understood as a  nuclear family  with their extended family living separately. However, today the archetypical family (husband, wife and children) can no longer be the exact social expectation. In the UK, one in three people is a step-parent, step-child, adult step-child, step-sibling or step-grandparent. According to the Office for National Statistics, more children are being raised in single parent households. Also, as the stigma associated with premarital intercourse has diminished, the number of unwed mothers has increased. Families are increasingly incorporating  LGBTQI + relationships. As such, children of same-sex couples are becoming more common.  However, while the traditional archetypal British family structure is no longer an expected cultural standard, the f...

School of Tomorrow. Word Building. 10D, 11D 18.02.2022 Topic: The role of prefixes and suffixes Study the theory block and do the task: Grammaticalization is not only something that creates a word, it is also what creates most prefixes and suffixes. How could someone not knowing any language, figure out what that first language was going to be? A close-up of the word 'prefix' in a dictionary. Prefixes and Suffixes If someone doesn’t know anything about English, French, or Spanish, and tries to figure out how the first language would be, would they stick endings on “I speak”? How likely is it that they would say, “I speak” and then stick something at the end? “Yo hablo,” “Tú hablas,” “You speak.” English speakers are used to dealing with that when learning other languages. Endings in a language start out as free-swimming words, kludging on to another word and wearing away. They’re like the male anglerfish, becoming just a bump in the end. Latin Words Dealing with Latin, w...
