Meeka has announced its adherence to the JORC Code 2012 for governance and internal controls over its Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates, ensuring transparency and accountability in reporting. The company’s Mineral Resource estimates are prepared by Mr James Lawrence, while Ore Reserve estimates are prepared by Mr Chris Davidson, both suitably qualified and experienced Competent Persons.
Material actions and disclosures
The Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates are subject to appropriate governance arrangements and internal controls, with annual reviews conducted as at 30 June. Drill hole data is captured in a validated industry-standard database with import validation protocols, QAQC monitoring of certified reference materials, blanks and duplicates, and visual validation of geological models.
The Ore Reserve estimates are based on Mineral Resources classified as Measured or Indicated, using mine designs, schedules, and financial evaluations completed to Definitive Feasibility Study level. Dilution, ore loss, cost, metallurgical recovery, and gold price assumptions are reviewed annually. Production is reconciled against the Resource and Reserve models monthly, with material variances investigated and taken into account in the annual review.
The annual Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve statement is reviewed by the Competent Persons, who have provided written consent to the inclusion of the estimates in the form and context in which they appear.
