Risks Associated with Our Business

Mineral resource estimates are inherently imprecise, involve substantial expenditures and are frequently non-productive.

We have released an estimate of mineral resources at the Richmond Hill property. Mineral resource figures based on estimates made by geologists are inherently imprecise and depend on geological interpretation and statistical inferences drawn from drilling and sampling that may prove to be unreliable or inaccurate. Substantial expenditures are required to: (i) establish the existence of a potential ore body through drilling and metallurgical and other testing techniques; (ii) determine metal content and metallurgical recovery processes to process metal from the ore; (iii) determine the feasibility of mine development and mineral extraction; and (iv) construct, renovate or expand mining and processing facilities. It usually takes several years from the initial mineral resource estimate until mineral extraction is possible, if at all. During this time, the economic feasibility of a project may change because of increased costs, lower metal prices or other factors. As a result of these uncertainties, our exploration programs may not result in the development of any particular property. We cannot assure you that our mineral resource estimates are accurate, and even if the estimates are accurate, the economic viability of the Richmond Hill property may not justify exploitation or the estimates may not accurately reflect the future revenue we receive from mineral extraction.
