The figures presented above are extracted from the report entitled “Annual Mineral Resources and Ore Reserve Statement 2017” released to ASX on 19 April 2018. To view this report click here.
Full details of the Ernest Henry Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves are provided in the report entitled “Glencore Resources and Reserves as at 31 December 2017” released February 2018 and available to view at www.glencore.com.
The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the Reports and that all material assumptions and parameters underpinning the estimates in the Reports continue to apply and have not materially changed. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Persons’ findings are presented have not been materially modified from the Reports.
Ernest Henry Resource is reported on a 100% basis for gold and 30% for copper. (Evolution Mining has rights to 100% of the revenue from future gold production and 30% of future copper and silver produced from an agreed life of mine area and 49% of future gold, copper and silver produced from the Ernest Henry Resource outside the agreed life of mine area). Apportioning of the resource into the specific rights does not constitute a material change to the reported figures.
