ASX Listing Rule 5 requirements
This presentation includes estimates of mineral resources and ore reserves in relation to Hastings' mining projects. Hastings has previously reported these estimates in the ASX announcements "Yangibana Project updated Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource Tonnes up by | ||
54%, TREO oxides up 32%", dated 5 May 2021 and "Yangibana Rare Earths Project Significant Ore Reserve Tonnes increase of 37%, NdPr Tonnes up 18% to 58Kt", dated 27 July 2021 and "Hastings to Acquire 30% Yangibana Joint Venture Interest from Cadence Minerals Plc" | ||
only | ||
dated 23 June 2022. Hastings confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original market announcements and all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the original market | ||
announcements continue to apply and have not materially changed. | ||
This presentation contains production targets and forecast financial information derived from a production target. Hastings has previously reported the production targets and forecast financial information in the ASX announcement "Yangibana Project NPV8 Increases 84% to A$1 | ||
bi ion (post tax)", dated 21 February 2022. Hastings confirms that all material assumptions underpinning the production targets, and the forecast financial information derived from the production targets, continue to apply and have not materially changed. | ||
JORC Code | ||
It is a requirement of the ASX Listing Rules that the reporting of ore reserves and mineral resources in Australia comply with the Joint Ore Reserves Committee's Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves ("JORC Code"). Investors outside Australia | ||
should note that while ore reserve and mineral resource estimates of the Company in this document comply with the JORC Code (such JORC Code-compliant ore reserves and mineral resources being "Ore Reserves" and "Mineral Resources" respectively), they may not comply with | ||
the relevant guidelines in other countries and, in particular, do not comply with (i) National Instrument 43-101 (Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects) of the Canadian Securities Administrators (the "Canadian NI 43-101 Standards"); or (ii) Industry Guide 7, which governs | ||
disclosures of mineral reserves in registration statements filed with the SEC. Information contained in this document describing mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of Canadian | ||
or US securities laws. In particular, Industry Guide 7 does not recognise classifications other than proven and probable reserves and, as a result, the SEC generally does not permit mining companies to disclose their mineral resources in SEC filings. You should not assume that | ||
quantities reported as "resources" will be converted to reserves under the JORC Code or any other reporting regime or that the Company will be able to legally and economically extract them. | ||
