(‘000 m 3 ) (KgSn/m3) (Tonnes)<br />

Measured 2,416 2.78 6,721<br />

Indicated 2,759 2.71 7,468<br />

Inferred 16,240 1.66 26,903<br />

TOTAL RESOURCES 21,415 1.92 41,092<br />

Footnote:<br />

RHT grades are Ore Volume grades, whereas PT Koba Tin grades are Total Volume grades (ore + waste). It is not appropriate to<br />

apply a ‘Whole-Of-Hole’ grade calculation to the RHT resource as these resources are primary, hard rock mineralization, which<br />

occurs in the form of veinlets, with various orientations from the top levels extending to depths. Waste materials also occur in<br />

between the veinlets. This differs from the alluvial PT Koba Tin resources and reserves, where a ‘Whole-Of-Hole’ grades can be<br />

calculated, as all the orebodies are horizontally emplaced and the ore : waste zones are clearly defined.<br />
