CSA Global is excited to be part of the AusIMM JORC Fundamentals Workshop scheduled for Monday 29 October 2018 at the 5th Annual International Mining and Resources Conference (IMARC), Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.
The Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) Code sets the minimum standard for public reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves in Australia and New Zealand. The purpose of the code is to establish consistency in reporting of the resources and reserves of mining projects. This code is critical for investors who are looking to invest into Australian mining companies.
This workshop will run through a clear overview of these JORC Code fundamentals and implications for assessing resource value.
Attendees will leave this workshop with a clear understanding of the critical differences between Inferred, Indicated, and Measured Mineral Resources, and also Probable and Proved Ore Reserves.
The workshop will run from 9:00am to 5:30pm in Room 216, Level 2, Melbourne Convention Centre and includes presenters from industry: Mark Noppe (SRK Consulting), Steve Hunt (JORC Chair), Anne Marie Ebbels (SRK Consulting), Bill Shaw (Ore Control), Colin Sprott (AMC Consultants) Anna Littleboy (Professorial Research Fellow), Stephen Hancock (ConSoc), James Stoddard (AMC Consulting) and Graham Jeffress (CSA Global).
