Site type

Definition

Mine

A deposit which is being mined, was previously mined, or is proposed to be mined.

Deposit

A mineral occurrence with probable economic value and for which there is an established resource.

Prospect

Any mineral occurrence where economic grades have been intersected over a significant width and strike length but for which there is not yet a resource, or any working or exploration activity that has found subeconomic mineral occurrences and from which there is no recorded production.

Occurrence

An occurrence (excluding those defined as mines, deposits or prospects) can be defined if an economic mineral has been identified in outcrop, or if assay results exceed an agreed concentration and size.

Unclassified

Mineralization site for which the "Target Commodity Group" does not reflect the specified commodity, and hence the "Site Type Description" is not applicable.
