Cautionary Notes • Forward-looking statements • Certain statements contained herein constitute “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements look into the future and provide an opinion as to the effect of certain events and trends on the business. Forward-looking statements may include words such as “plans,” “intends,” anticipates,” “should,” “estimates,” “expects,” “believes,” “indicates,” “targeting,” “suggests,” “potential,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and entail various risks and uncertainties. Actual results may materially differ from expectations, if known and unknown risks or uncertainties affect our business, or if our estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate. Investors are advised to review the Company’s Annual Information Form filed at www.sedar.com for a detailed discussion of investment risks. The Company assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or any other reason. • Cautionary note regarding reserve and resource estimates • The material in this presentation has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Unless otherwise indicated, all resource and reserve estimates included in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification System. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators which establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and resource and reserve information contained herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “resource” does not equate to the term “reserves”. Investors should also understand that “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. The estimation of quantities of resources and reserves is complex, based on significant subjective assumptions and forward-looking information, including assumptions that arise from the evaluation of geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data for a given ore body. This data could change over time as a result of numerous factors, including new information gained from development activities, evolving production history and a reassessment of the viability of production under different economic conditions. • Changes in data and/or assumptions could cause reserve estimates to substantially change from period to period. No assurance can be given that the indicated level of mineral will be produced. Actual production could differ from expected production and an adverse change in mineral prices could make a reserve uneconomic to mine. Variations could also occur in actual ore grades and recovery rates from estimates.
警示性說明 前瞻性陳述 文中的某些陳述構成了“前瞻性陳述”。前瞻性陳述針對未來事件,提供了某些事件的影響及業務趨勢方面的意見。這些陳述可能包含“計劃”、“可能”、“預期”、“將會”、“預計”、“期待”、“相信”、“指示”、“目標”、“預示”、“潛力”等詞語或類似表述。前瞻性陳述基於當前預期,包括多種風險因素及不確定性。若已知或未知風險因素或不確定性影響公司業務,或公司預期或假設出現失誤,則實際結果可能與預期大不相同。投資者可在提交至www.sedar.com的公司年度信息表中查閱詳細的投資風險。公司沒有根據新信息、未來事件以及其它原因更新任何前瞻性陳述的義務。 關於資源量和儲量評估的警示說明 本報告中的材料都是按照加拿大證券法的要求準備的,而美國的證券法要求與此不同。除非特別指明,本報告中的資源量和儲量評估都符合礦業項目信息披露的NI43-101標準以及加拿大礦業和冶金研究機構分級體系。NI 43-101是由加拿大證券委員會制定的一套規則,規定了所有公開發佈的有關礦業項目的科學技術信息的標準。包括NI 43-101標準在內的加拿大標準與美國證券交易委員會的要求有很大的不同,因此本文中的資源量和儲量信息可能與美國公司公佈的類似信息不具有可比性。尤其需要注意的是,如果沒有對前述條文的一般性予以限制,資源量並不等同於儲量。投資者也需要清楚推斷資源量在存在性以及經濟和法律可行性上都有很大的不確定性。不能認為所有的或者任何推斷資源量都會升級到更高的資源級別。資源量和儲量的評估是一個複雜的過程,它建立在大量的主觀假設和前瞻性信息基礎之上,包括根據對給定礦體地質的、地球物理的、工程的和經濟方面的信息評估而做出的假設。隨著時間的推移這些數據會受一系列因素的影響而發生變化,包括開發活動獲得的新信息、不斷發展的生產歷史以及在不同經濟環境下對生產能力所做的新的評估。 數據和/或者假設條件的變化會導致儲量評估經常發生巨大的變化。同時不能保證處於控制資源量等級的礦物可以被生產出來。實際的產量可能與預計的產量不同,而礦物價格的不利變化也可能導致儲量開採不具有經濟可行性。實際的礦石品位和回收率也可能與評估的不同。
