The Preliminary Economic Assessment for the Bermejal Underground Expansion Project (The “Bermejal Underground PEA” or “PEA”) is a conceptual study of the potential viability of Mineral Resources of the Bermejal Underground project. The PEA is not a Prefeasibility Study or Feasibility Study, as the economics and technical viability of the Bermejal Underground project have not been demonstrated at this time. The PEA is preliminary in nature, and is based on inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
