South American Ferro: Updated Jorc Resource Statement
(firmenpresse) -
UPDATED JORC RESOURCE STATEMENT
South American Ferro Metals Limited (ASX: SFZ) (SAFM or the Company) is pleased to announce that its JORC Mining Resource has increased by 34%, from 301.1 Mt to 403.71 Mt , which is set out in the following JORC Resource statement:
Ponto Verde Iron Ore Project
Grade x Tonnage Table - Cut-off Grade Applied: 20% Fe
Resource Class Tonnes (Mt) Fe (%)
Measured 83.82 40.44
Indicated 157.79 41.01
Measured + Indicated 241.61 40.81
Inferred 162.10 39.68
Additional resource information has been gathered from an additional 12 diamond drill and 162 samples from 584.5 metres of trenching which confirms the continuity of the mineralization.
SAFM is currently re-evaluating the overall scope of its current Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS) in
light of this additional information with a view to enlarging the initial reserve for mining.
The majority of the updated Resource has been calculated to an average depth of 70 metres below the surface. However, exploration drilling at depth has highlighted that mineralisation extends to over 320 metres depth. Based on this, SAFM will plan a drilling program to target the core of the deposit at depth which will have the potential to further increase the size of the deposit.
SAFM Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director Stephen Turner said:
The Board SAFM is pleased with this latest 34% increase of its Ponto Verde resource. The enlarged resource underpins SAFMs expansion plans. Work is underway to define a new JORC compliant resource calculation which we expect to be material.
