The preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature, and it includes 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. There is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. Numbers may not add exactly due to rounding. Cash cost includes all operating costs, royalties, refining charges, environmental monitoring, tenure fees as well as general and administration costs. Cash cost excludes any capital cost, either initial or sustaining and closure and remediation costs.

Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability

The PEA was based on the July 15, 2014 NI 43-101 Inferred Mineral Resource estimate prepared by WSP which as a result of the PEA is being restated using a 0.5 g/t cut-off. (see Table 1 for details).

Table 1 Enchi Gold Project - Inferred Mineral Resource (0.5 g/t Cut-Off)
Cut-off Zone Tonnes Grade Contained Gold
Au (g/t) Au (g/t) (ounces)
0.5 Boin 15,872,000 0.96 489,892
0.5 Nyamebekyere 5,350,000 0.96 165,129
0.5 Sewum 16,135,000 0.82 423,676
TOTAL 37,357,000 0.90 1,078,697
  1. CIM definition standards were followed for the resource estimate.
  2. The 2014 resource models used ordinary kriging (OK) grade estimation within a three-dimensional block model with mineralized zones defined by wireframed solids.
  3. A base cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t Au was used for reporting resources with a capping of gold grades at 18 g/t.
  4. A US$1,300/ounce gold price, open pit with heap leach operation was used to determine the cut-off grade.
  5. A density of 2.45 g/cm3 was applied.
  6. Numbers may not add exactly due to rounding.
  7. Mineral Resources that are not mineral reserves do not have economic viability

The 2014 Mineral Resource estimate was based on 52,385 metres of diamond and RC drilling in 646 holes as well as data from 102 surface trenches totalling 13,799 metres. The drilling is generally spaced at 25 to 50 metre intervals.
