Inferred Mineral Resources are not known to the same degree of certainty as Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. A 65:1 silver to gold equivalency ratio was used to calculate gold equivalent ounces. The reserves above exclude approximately 20,300 equivalent ounces of metal contained in carbonaceous limestone discussed in MD&A April 30, 2015. Dave Gunning, P. Eng is the qualified person.
