Exploration

Mallee Bull Project: Copper, Silver, Gold, Lead, Zinc; Western NSW (PEX 50% and Manager, CBH 50%).

Targets: Cobar-style polymetallic mineralisation; Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide mineralisation.

The Mallee Bull project is a 50:50 Joint Venture with CBH Resources Limited (CBH). A maiden JORC compliant Mineral Resource estimate was completed in May 2014, and comprises 3.9Mt at 2.3% copper, 32 g/t silver and 0.3 g/t gold; details can be found in the announcement released 27 May 2014 "High Grade Copper Resource at Mallee Bull".

Orion 3D DC-IP-MT Survey and Targets

During the March quarter, investigations at Mallee Bull continued, with the primary aim of increasing the scale of the known mineralised system. Activities included the completion of an Orion 3D DC-IP-MT survey, which covered approximately 5km[2] centred on the Mallee Bull deposit, along with the completion of high-resolution (50m line-spacing) airborne magnetics survey and subsequent 3D inversion modelling of data.

Orion 3D is a state-of-the-art geophysical system that acquires three sets of data in multiple directions – DC (direct current), IP (induced polarisation) and MT (magnetotellurics) – providing a high-resolution and deep-penetrating three dimensional survey. Analysis of the IP and DC data has revealed numerous anomalies, while modelling and interpretation of the MT data is still continuing.

The survey data only appears to highlight the deeper levels of the Mallee Bull system as a strong chargeable anomaly. Counterintuitively, this result is analogous with IP chargeable responses from many massive sulphide mineralised systems. Importantly, however, two areas of strong chargeability occur in close proximity to Mallee Bull and these have been identified as priority targets for drill testing.

The first area (T1) is located in an up-dip position centred at ~150m below surface,to the east of Mallee Bull. It is defined by a very strong chargeable and low resistivity response and is located in area that has seen minimal drilling. This area was previously identified for follow-up drilling, as significant mineralised drill intercepts are located nearby. Four 250m deep RC drillholes are planned for T1.

The second area (T2) is located ~250m to the west of Mallee Bull commencing at ~250m below surface and continuing to about ~450m below surface. It is defined by three separate but adjacent, strong chargeable responses. No drilling has been completed in this area although several RC pre-collars positioned immediately above this zone contained anomalous but low grade gold intercepts. A single 500m deep diamond drillhole is planned for T2.

High-resolution Airborne Magnetic Survey, 3D Inversion and Targets

3D inversion modeling of high-resolution airborne magnetic data that was recently flown over Mallee Bull and the broader tenement has also identified several anomalies for drill targeting:

Target 3 (T3) is a substantial remanent (negative) magnetic feature located ~500m southeast of Mallee Bull. T3 is located in close proximity to the centre of the historic 4-Mile gold workings and has anomalous surface and RAB drillhole geochemistry (Au-As) located above it. A single 800m deep diamond drillhole is planned for T3.

Target 4 (T4) is a small, strong magnetic high located ~1,200m to the east of Mallee Bull. T4 is a relatively shallow target and has anomalous surface geochemistry (As-Pb-Zn) located above it. A single 350m deep RC drillhole is planned for T4.

Cobar Superbasin Project: Copper, Silver, Gold, Lead, Zinc; Western NSW (PEX 100%;

JOGMEC earning up to 50%).

Targets: Cobar-style polymetallic mineralisation; Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide mineralisation.

As announced in the September 2014 quarter, the Cobar Superbasin Project is subject to a Memorandum of Agreement with Japan Oil, Gas, and Metals National Corporation (JOGMEC), under which JOGMEC may earn up to 50% interest by funding up to $7 million of exploration. The first stage of exploration under this MoA was completed in March, encompassing $1 million expenditure; activities this quarter included diamond, RC and RAB drilling at the Sandy Creek, Red Shaft, Wirlong and Burthong prospects.

Wirlong

During the quarter, Peel reported that results from its maiden drill programme at Wirlong; these results are considered highly encouraging particularly given the prospect’s early-stage of investigation. In total, 6 RC drillholes were successfully completed at Wirlong - 3 drillholes (WLRC001, 003 and 004) were drilled to test chargeable IP geophysical anomalies and 3 drillholes (WLRC005, 006 and 007) were drilled to test geochemical anomalies. WLRC002 was terminated early due to excessive lift. All three drillholes targeting geochemical anomalies returned strong base metals mineralisation including:

  • 4m @ 3.04% Cu, 12 g/t Ag, 0.19% Zn from 196m in WLRC005;

  • o 2m @ 2.99% Cu, 1.08 g/t Au, 16 g/t Ag, 0.41% Zn from 322m in WLRC006; o 2m @ 2.30% Zn, 0.81% Pb, 4 g/t Ag from 139m in WLRC007.

WLRC001 (356m) was completed without encountering any explanation for the chargeable IP target, however it was noted that the drillhole steepened significantly from its planned trace, and as a result failed to properly test the chargeability anomaly.

WLRC002 (72m) was terminated early due to excessive lift.

WLRC003 (342m) was collared adjacent to WLRC002 and drilled at a steeper angle in an attempt to counter any excessive lift that might occur. Regardless, WLRC003 lifted significantly, and as a result failed to properly test the chargeable IP anomaly. Of note, several zones of anomalous base metal values occurred at downhole positions proximal to the assumed IP chargeable zones.

WLRC004 (300m) was completed without encountering any explanation for the chargeable IP target, however, similar to WLRC001, it was noted that the drillhole steepened significantly from the planned trace, and as a result failed to properly test the chargeable IP anomaly.

WLRC005 (360m) was designed to test a strong surface lead geochemical anomaly with coincident shearing and sericite alteration, and a moderate chargeable IP anomaly. WLRC005 encountered several broad zones of highly anomalous base metals mineralisation within sheared sediments and felsic volcanic rocks. Sulphide minerals of note include pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena. A strong

interval of chalcopyrite-rich mineralisation was recorded at 196-200m downhole - 4m @ 3.04% Cu, 12 g/t Ag, 0.19% Zn - which occurs in a down dip position from a moderate chargeable IP anomaly. A best individual metre (196m-197m) grade of 6.22% Cu indicates the potential of the mineralised system at Wirlong.

WLRC006 (360m) was designed to test a strong surface lead-copper geochemical anomaly with coincident shearing and alteration and a deep chargeable IP anomaly. WLRC006 was collared about 130m North of WLRC005 and encountered several broad zones of highly anomalous base metals mineralisation within sheared predominantly felsic volcanic rocks. Sulphide minerals of note include pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena. A strong interval of chalcopyrite-rich mineralisation with associated moderate-strong chlorite alteration was recorded at 322-324m downhole - 2m @ 2.99% Cu, 1.06 g/t Au, 16 g/t Ag, 0.41% Zn .

WLRC007 (234m), located about 1.4km North of WLRC006 and 2.2km North of the historic Wirlong workings, was designed to test beneath WLRAB004 which returned 9m @ 2.19% Pb, 0.11% Zn from 1m and 6m @ 1.01% Pb from 13m . Broad intervals of highly anomalous base metals mineralisation were returned including 2m @ 2.30% Zn, 0.81% Pb, 4 g/t Ag from 139m .

Peel also completed 52 RAB drillholes at the Northern end of the Wirlong prospect, about 2 km North of the historic Wirlong workings. The majority of these drillholes intersected highly anomalous base metals mineralisation including the aforementioned WLRAB004.

Results indicate that Wirlong represents a very large, mineralised, hydrothermal system, with a strike length of more than 2.5km, open to the North and South. Furthermore, the prospective stratigraphy that hosts mineralisation at Wirlong is traceable to the Red Shaft prospect, indicating a mineralised trend covering more than 6km of strike. Wirlong shares many attributes similar to other Cobar-style deposits including the Shuttleton copper deposit (6km to the West) and the Peak/Perseverance goldcopper deposits with mineralisation being hosted in sheared felsic volcanics and sediments with strong sericite and chlorite alteration.

Red Shaft

Drilling at Red Shaft was completed during the December and March quarters and comprised 2 RC drillholes for 303m and 40 RAB drillholes for 1,953m. Strong base and precious metals mineralisation was returned from multiple drillholes. Red Shaft bares many similarities to Wirlong with mineralisation hosted within sheared felsic volcanics and sediments.

RSRC001 (189m) was designed to test a strong surface copper anomaly in close proximity to the main historic working at Red Shaft however only weak copper-zinc anomalism was returned.

RSRC002 (114m) was designed to test beneath significant gold-base metals mineralisation returned from RSRAB035: 15m @ 0.86 g/t Au from 7m . Highly anomalous base metal values were returned from several broad zones within RSRC002, however, only minor gold values were present.

Interpretation of Red Shaft results is continuing.

Sandy Creek

Drilling at Sandy Creek was completed during the December and March quarters and comprised: 4 RC drillholes for 752m; 1 RC precollar with diamond tail drillhole for 308m RC and 208m diamond; and 1 diamond drillhole for 600m. A further 51 RAB drillholes for 1,786m were also completed. Drillholes PSCRCDD002 and PSCDD002 encountered encouraging mineralisation which continues to highlight the potential of the Sandy Creek prospect.

PSCRC001 (160m) and PSCRC003 (160m) were both designed to test shallow IP resistivity targets however no significant results were returned.

PSCRCDD002 (516m) was designed to test a strong chargeable IP anomaly at the Northern end of the Sandy Creek prospect. An RC pre-collar was completed to 308m which was then followed by a 208m diamond tail. PSCRCDD002 predominantly encountered fine-to-medium grained turbiditic sediments, with noticeable volcaniclastic components in places. Pyrrhotite and pyrite sulphide mineralisation occurs at deeper levels (below 350m downhole) and are interpreted as contributing to the IP response. In places, fine mudstone units are fractured with thin network-type veins and/or shearing in places. Several minor sphalerite/chalcopyrite/pyrrhotite/galena veins occur in fractures with anomalous but generally low base metal values returned from these zones. DHEM surveying of PSCRCDD002 show several on- and off-hole conductors, with offhole conductors positioned below the drillhole. Further downhole modelling is planned.

PSCRC004 (282m) and PSCRC005 (150m) were drilled in an attempt to target a strong chargeable IP and DHEM anomaly situated about 500m below surface in the central part of the main area of interest at Sandy Creek. PSCRC004 was terminated at 282m after significant deviation from drillhole design. PSCRC005 was collared in a scissor position, however was also prematurely terminated following deviation from drillhole design and high water inflows.

PSCDD002 (600.2m) was designed to target the aforementioned anomaly unsuccessfully tested by PSCRC004 and PSCRC005. PSCDD002 predominantly encountered fine-to-medium grained turbiditic sediments. At about 490m, a 20m-wide zone of quartz-healed brecciated turbiditic sediments was encountered with several intervals of locally strong pyrrhotite-pyrite-sphalerite-chalcopyrite-galena mineralisation occurring in narrow massive veins and fracture fills with associated sericite and chlorite alteration. Significant results included 1m @ 82.3 g/t Ag, 1.48% Cu, 9.16% Pb, 5.36% Zn from 499m and 1m @ 25.4 g/t Ag, 3.65% Pb, 6.91% Zn from 502m. The results continue to highlight the potential of Sandy Creek to host economic mineralisation.

Burthong

At the Burthong prospect, strong coherent Pb, Zn, Cu and As soil anomalies have previously been defined by portable XRF sampling, with additional rock chip samples returning up to 50ppm Ag. An IP survey was completed during the December quarter, delineating a coincident low order chargeable/low resistivity anomaly 50-150m west of the As anomalous zone. To follow-up, 45 RAB holes were drilled during the March quarter for a total 711m. Results are encouraging, with significant intercepts including 12m @ 3.3 g/t Ag, 0.50% Pb, 0.11% Zn from 0m to EOH in BTRAB020 and 24m @ 0.23% Zn from 0m to EOH in BTRAB021.

Exploration activities at the Apollo Hill Project continued to focus on prospective areas away from the main resource deposit, in particular to the southeast where several exploration and prospecting licences have been recently granted.

At the Mud Hut prospect on E31/1063, geochemical sampling by Peel has previously identified an area of anomalous gold, with values including 42.0 g/t Au, 10.9 g/t Au and 7.39 g/t Au; details can be found in the September quarter 2014 activities report. In March 2015, a small orientation auger survey was undertaken as follow-up at Mud Hut and anomalous gold values were returned including a 0.21 g/t Au sample north-northeast along the same strike trend as the aforementioned high grade Au samples.

An additional small auger orientation survey was completed over the Stockdale prospect on E31/1039, however Au values were generally minor. A programme of work has now been submitted to drill test the Mud Hut area, comprising up to 30 RAB holes with drilling to commence once approvals are received.

During the quarter, samples from drilling completed by Peel at Apollo Hill were submitted for re-assay, utilising the ME-MS61 analytical method for its lower detection limit, and also for hyperspectral analysis. The multi-element and hyperspectral results were to be examined in an effort to better understand the mineral and alteration geochemistry present at Apollo Hill and to aid vestoring for future drill targeting.

Other Projects

No fieldwork was undertaken on any other project during the quarter.

Corporate

Peel received a tax refund of $1.37m (including interest and before costs) for 2012/13 year in relation to Research & Development activities undertaken by the Company.

Table 1 - Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data for Mallee Bull/Cobar Superbasin Project

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels,
random chips, or specific specialised industry
standard measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as down hole
gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc).
These examples should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure
sample
representivity
and
the
appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or systems
used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that
are Material to the Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been
done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples
from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g
charge for fire assay’). In other cases more
explanation may be required, such as where there
is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems.
Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg
submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailed information.
 Diamond, reverse circulation (RC) and
Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drilling were used
to obtain samples for geological logging
and assaying.
 Diamond core was cut and sampled at 1m
intervals. RC and RAB drill holes were
sampled at 1m intervals and split using a
cone splitter attached to the cyclone to
generate a split of 2-4kg to ensure sample
representivity.
 Multi-element readings were taken of the
RC and RAB drill chips using an Olympus
Delta Innov-X portable XRF tool. The
portable XRF was calibrated against
standards after every 30 readings.
Drilling
techniques
Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole
hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc)
and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard
tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or
other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by
what method, etc).
 Drilling to date has been a combination of
diamond, reverse circulation and rotary
air blast. Reverse circulation drilling
utilised a 5 1/2 inch diameter hammer. A
blade bit was predominantly used for RAB
drilling. NQ and HQ coring was used for
diamond drilling.
Drill
sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing core and chip
sample recoveries and results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and
ensure representative nature of the samples.
Whether a relationship exists between sample
recovery and grade and whether sample bias may
have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of
fine/coarse material.
 Core recoveries are recorded by the
drillers in the field at the time of drilling
and checked by a geologist or technician
 RC and RAB samples are not weighed on a
regular basis due to the exploration
nature of drilling but no significant sample
recovery issues have been encountered in
a drilling program to date.
 Diamond core is reconstructed into
continuous runs on an angle iron cradle
for orientation marking and depths are
checked against the depths recorded on
core blocks. Rod counts are routinely
undertaken by drillers.
 When
poor
sample
recovery
is
encountered during drilling, the geologist
and driller have endeavoured to rectify
the problem to ensure maximum sample
recovery.
 Sample recoveries to date have generally
been high. Insufficient data is available at
present to determine if a relationship

exists between recovery and grade. This
will be assessed once a statistically valid
amount of data is available to make a
determination.
Logging Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of
detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource
estimation, mining studies and metallurgical
studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in
nature.

photography.
The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.
 All core and drill chip samples are
geologically logged. Core samples are
orientated and logged for geotechnical
information. Drill chip samples are logged
at 1m intervals from surface to the
bottom of each individual hole to a level
that will support appropriate future
Mineral Resource studies.
 Logging of diamond core, RC and RAB
samples records lithology, mineralogy,
mineralisation, structure (DDH only),
weathering, colour and other features of
the samples. Core is photographed as
both wet and dry.
 All diamond, RC and RAB drill holes in the
current program were geologically logged
in full.
Sub-sampling

for
field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain
size of the material being sampled.
 Drill core was cut with a core saw and half
core taken.
 The RC and RAB drilling rigs were
equipped with an in-built cyclone and
splitting system, which provided one bulk
sample of approximately 20kg and a sub-
sample of 2-4kg per metre drilled.
 All samples were split using the system
described
above
to
maximise
and
maintain consistent representivity. The
majority of samples were dry.
 Bulk samples were placed in green plastic
bags, with the sub-samples collected
placed in calico sample bags
 Field duplicates were collected by re-
splitting the bulk samples from large
plastic bags. These duplicates were
designed for lab checks.
 A sample size of 2-4kg was collected and
considered
appropriate
and
representative for the grain size and style
of mineralisation.

Duplicates for drill core are collected by
the lab every 30 samples after the core
sample is pulverised. Duplicates for
percussion drilling are collected directly
from the drill rig or the metre sample bag
using a half round section of pipe. In-

 All geological logging and sampling
information is completed in spreadsheets,
which are then transferred to a database
for validation and compilation at the Peel
head office. Electronic copies of all
information are backed up periodically.
 No adjustments of assay data are
considered necessary.

of
data points
Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill
holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches,
mine workings and other locations used in Mineral
Resource estimation.
Specification of the grid system used.
Quality and adequacy of topographic control.
 A Garmin hand-held GPS is used to define
the location of the samples. Standard
practice is for the GPS to be left at the site
of the collar for a period of 10 minutes to
obtain a steady reading. Collars are picked
up after by DGPS. Down-hole surveys are
conducted by the drill contractors using
predominantly a Reflex gyroscopic tool
with readings every 10m after drill hole
completion.
On
occasion
a
Reflex
electronic multi-shot camera will be used
with readings for dip and magnetic
azimuth taken every 30m down-hole.
QA/QC in the field involves calibration
using a test stand. The instrument is
positioned with a stainless steel drill rod
so as not to affect the magnetic azimuth.
 Grid system used is MGA 94 (Zone 55). All
down-hole
magnetic
surveys
were
converted to MGA94grid.
Data spacing

Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.
Whether the data spacing and distribution is
sufficient to establish the degree of geological and
grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s)
and classifications applied.
Whether sample compositing has been applied.
 Data/drill hole spacing is variable and

Data
aggregation
methods
In
reporting
Exploration
Results,
weighting
averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum
grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and
cut-off grades are usually Material and should be
stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short
lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of
low grade results, the procedure used for such
aggregation should be stated and some typical
examples of such aggregations should be shown in
detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal
equivalent values should be clearly stated.
 No length weighting or top-cuts have
been applied.
 No metal equivalent values are used for
reporting exploration results.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths
and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important in
the reporting of Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect
to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should
be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths
are reported, there should be a clear statement to
this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not
_known’). _

True widths are generally estimated to be
about 60% of the downhole width.
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and
tabulations of intercepts should be included for any
significant discovery being reported These should
include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill

 There has been no production to date at
Mallee Bull.
 Comparative check modelling included
construction of un-cut estimates. A model
was also constructed with composite
sulphur grades factored to compensate
for the apparent understatement of by
aqua regia assaying. This model did not
give

boundaries.
 Drill hole intercept spacing varies from
around 20 by 20 m and locally tighter in
central areas of the mineralisation to
greater than 80 by 80 m in peripheral
areas and at depth.
 Estimation included a four pass octant
based search strategy, with ellipsoids

 Search ellipsoid radii (across strike, along
strike, down dip) and minimum data
requirements for these searches range
from 10 by 50 by 50m (8 data) for search

the estimates reflect Peel’s interpretation
of potential commodity prices, costs and
recoveries.
Mining factors
or assumptions
Assumptions made regarding possible mining
methods, minimum mining dimensions and
internal (or, if applicable, external) mining
dilution. It is always necessary as part of the
process of determining reasonable prospects for
eventual economic extraction to consider
potential mining methods, but the assumptions
made regarding mining methods and parameters
when estimating Mineral Resources may not
always be rigorous. Where this is the case, this
should be reported with an explanation of the
basis of the mining assumptions made.
 Economic evaluation of the Mallee Bull

Metallurgical
factors or

The basis for assumptions or predictions regarding
metallurgical amenability. It is always necessary
as part of the process of determining reasonable
prospects for eventual economic extraction to
consider potential metallurgical methods, but the
assumptions regarding metallurgical treatment
processes and parameters made when reporting
Mineral Resources may not always be rigorous.
 First pass test work undertaken by Peel

lead and zinc.
Environmen-tal
factors or
assumptions
Assumptions made regarding possible waste and
process residue disposal options. It is always
necessary as part of the process of determining
reasonable prospects for eventual economic
extraction to consider the potential environmental
impacts of the mining and processing operation.
While at this stage the determination of potential
environmental impacts, particularly for a
greenfields project, may not always be well
advanced, the status of early consideration of
these potential environmental impacts should be
reported. Where these aspects have not been
considered this should be reported with an
explanation of the environmental assumptions
made.
 Economic evaluation of the Mallee Bull
deposit is at an early stage, and
environmental
considerations
for
potential mining have not yet been
evaluated in detail. Information available
to Peel indicates that there are unlikely to
be any specific environmental issues that
would
preclude
potential
eventual
economic extraction.
Bulk density Whether assumed or determined. If assumed, the
basis for the assumptions. If determined, the
method used, whether wet or dry, the frequency
of the measurements, the nature, size and
representativeness of the samples.
The bulk density for bulk material must have been
measured by methods that adequately account for
void spaces (vugs, porosity, etc), moisture and
differences between rock and alteration zones
within the deposit.
Discuss assumptions for bulk density estimates
used in the evaluation process of the different
materials.
 Peel routinely performed immersion
density measurements on air dried
samples of drill core with results available
for 2,308 samples.
 The
reliability
of
Peels
density
measurements was confirmed by 97
repeat measurements performed by ALS
on oven dried samples.
 Density
measurements
show
an
association between increasing density
and sulphur grade reflecting increasing
concentration of sulphide minerals.
 Densities were assigned to the current
block model from Kriged sulphur values
using the following formula derived from
the available density measurements:
Density (t/m3) = 2.80 + 0.04 x S(%)
 Average estimated densities range from
approximately 2.9 t/m3 for the footwall
and central domains to approximately 3.7
t/m3
for
the
more
sulphide
rich
hangingwall domain.
 The available information suggests that
the
density
measurements
are
representative of the mineralisation.
Classification The basis for the classification of the Mineral
Resources into varying confidence categories.
 Estimated resources are extrapolated to
generally around 40 m from drill
intercepts and classified as Indicated and
Inferred on the basis of estimation search
pass and polygons defining areas of
relatively consistent drill hole spacing.
 For the hangingwall and upper footwall
domains, estimates for mineralisation
with consistently 40 by 40 m or closer
spaced

are
classified
as

Whether appropriate account has been taken of
all relevant factors (ie relative confidence in
tonnage/grade estimations, reliability of input
data, confidence in continuity of geology and
metal values, quality, quantity and distribution of
the data).
 The resource classification accounts for
all relevant factors.
Whether the result appropriately reflects the
Competent Person’s view of the deposit.
 The resource classifications reflect the
Competent Person’s views of the deposit.
Audits or
reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of Mineral
Resource estimates.
 The resource estimates
have been
reviewed by Peel geologists, and are
considered to appropriately reflect the
mineralisation and drillingdata.
Discussion of
relative
accuracy/
confidence
Where appropriate a statement of the relative
accuracy and confidence level in the Mineral
Resource estimate using an approach or
procedure deemed appropriate by the Competent
Person. For example, the application of statistical
or geostatistical procedures to quantify the
relative accuracy of the resource within stated
confidence limits, or, if such an approach is not
deemed appropriate, a qualitative discussion of
the factors that could affect the relative accuracy
and confidence of the estimate.
The statement should specify whether it relates to
global or local estimates, and, if local, state the
relevant tonnages, which should be relevant to
technical and economic evaluation.
Documentation should include assumptions made
and the procedures used.
These statements of relative accuracy and
confidence of the estimate should be compared
with production data, where available.
 Confidence in the relative accuracy of the
estimates is reflected by the classification
of estimates as Indicated and Inferred.

In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been
done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse
