Queensland Minerals 2016 Appendix 1
Appendix 1 Summary reports for operating mines in Queensland The following section presents detailed information for each of Queensland’s significant operating mines. Mineral deposits are presented in alphabetic order. Each mineral deposit report contains information about the location, commodities, size classification, production, resources/reserves, mining styles, tenures, host rocks, mineral deposit models, mineralisation ages and other comments. The resource information recorded does not duplicate resources documented as reserves or under any other resource classification. For example, if a published ‘measured, indicated and inferred resource’ includes the ‘proved and probable ore reserves’, these reserves are not recorded. However, if published reserves are in addition to the published resources they are recorded separately. Open file information sources such as company annual reports, quarterly reports and stock exchange announcements have been used, where available, to ensure current information is captured. Most resource and reserve figures are in accordance with the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC code), which is included as Appendix 9. Some older resource figures are not in accordance with the JORC code. Individual summary reports indicate whether or not the resource and reserve figures are JORC compliant. All sources used are referenced wherever possible. Queensland Minerals 2016 Queensland Minerals A Summary of Major Mineral Resources, Mines and Projects, 2016
