exploration to scout drilling, to advanced project management and resource definition drilling

• Selecting, staking and acquiring exploration and mineral properties; generating and maintaining the GIS database; capture and verification of historical data

• Reconnaissance exploration techniques (remote sensing, geochemical sampling, project mapping and geophysical surveys); timelines and costs; what to expect at this stage; limitations and interpretation of data; project ranking

• Advanced exploration techniques including detailed mapping, infill geochemical sampling and channel sampling, infill geophysics, drill targeting and drilling; timelines and costs; what to expect at this stage; limitations and interpretation of data

• Resource definition drilling; geotechnical, metallurgical and other studies; scoping, pre-feasibility and bankable feasibility; costs and timelines; understanding resources, reserves and studies




DAY THREE

Module 6 – 4 HoursInvesting in Exploration and Mining Companies• Overview of junior, mid-tier and major mining companies; how they manage risk and fund exploration, capital

requirements and sustaining costs; the difference between exploration and production; investment strategies for each

• Explorers: Understand the very low odds of discovery success; key elements of a successful discovery; evaluating risk and reward; Junior company value curve; press-releases - spotting value, and red flags and fatal flaws; case studies

• Producers: how will a mining project position itself on the capital and operating cost curves; how to value a mining project through its life cycle; peer comparisons and case studies

• How does cut-off grade and head grade, technical studies, management team, company structure, and geopolitical climate affect investment appetite, take-over potential, and overall value

• Scoping, pre-feasibility and bankable feasibility studies: what are they and what do they tell us; can we rely on them; what do they tell us about a projects profitability

Module 5 – 4 HoursMining and Processing Methods, Life of Mine and Sustainable Mining

• What is mining; open pit versus underground mining; understand how deposit type, size, grade and commodity affect choice of mining method; impact of environmental, social and physiographic factors

• Open pit and underground mining methods and equipment; permitting and construction process; timeline; CAPEX requirements; recent trends in mine development, stalled and shelved projects, and CAPEX overruns; economic viability and project feasibility

• Crushing, milling and metallurgical flowpath and equipment; factors affecting choice of process and recovery efficiency; costs of processing ore; final product (metals versus concentrate), transport, warehousing and sale; tailings and waste management

• Life of Mine and reserve/resource replenishment; mine closure and decommissioning; post-mine responsibility; social, environmental and economic considerations
