Reserve & Resource Estimation
The reserve number drives the valuation, the mine plan, and the disclosure. It deserves better than a spreadsheet someone inherited. We build reserves from the drill hole up and defend every assumption in writing.
What this covers
Geologic modeling
Drill-hole databases validated, sections cut, surfaces built, and the deposit modeled at the level of confidence the data actually supports.
Reserve estimation
Classification, modifying factors, dilution, recovery, and cutoff logic applied to recognized code standards — documented so an auditor can follow it.
Reporting-code support
Technical report summaries and supporting workings for SEC S-K 1300 filings; JORC and NI 43-101 framework familiarity for cross-border assets.
Reserve audits & reviews
Second-opinion reviews of existing statements before they go to a lender, a buyer, or a filing.
Reconciliation
Model-to-mill and plan-to-actual reconciliation that tells you whether the model or the operation is lying.
Deliverables
- Reserve statement with full methodology documentation
- Cross-sections, plan maps, and tonnage-grade tables
- Technical report summary sections ready for counsel review
- Audit memo with findings ranked by materiality
When you need this
Annual reserve updates, pre-transaction verification, first-time S-K 1300 compliance, or when the numbers stopped reconciling and nobody can say why.
