Public launch of PERC's Mineral Project Evaluation Report Template

This webinar will provide an introduction to PERC's Mineral Project Evaluation Report Template (MPER Template) which has been developed over the past year as part of an action agreed at PERC's 2023 AGM in April 2023.  

The MPER Template provides a framework to assist Competent Persons in the compilation of data, information, interpretations, assessments and conclusions relevant to Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves throughout a Mineral Project's life-cycle from early exploration through advanced mineral development to extraction operation.  The template is focused on assisting CPs in compiling such information in a manner that conforms with the requirements and recommendations outlined in the PERC Reporting Standard (see: https://percstandard.org/perc-standard/#2021).

The Template allows CPs to prepare a PERC Mineral Project Evaluation Report that is the foundation document from which appropriate extracts form the basis for the types of reports listed below and indicated schematically in header image:

1. Competent Person Reports (CPR) for Company listing requirements on the Securities Exchanges;
2. Company Public Reports that require Competent Person sign-off of released material;
3. Company Non-Public strategic reports on Mineral Asset development and management, such as exploration and target generation, and short-term or long-term mine planning;
4. Mineral Reporting in case of acquisition, purchase or selling of Mineral Assets;
5. Mineral Reporting requirements for regulatory authorities, typically for permit applications, such as a mining works programme;
6. Mineral Inventory reporting to national geological surveys;
7. Mineral Classification purposes for submissions on Critical Raw Material (CRM) Projects for the European Union (EU) using the United Nations Framework Classification (UNFC) System;

The webinar will provide a review of the overall structure of the report template together with details about the information which is to be recorded in each section.  Advice will also be provided on how CPs can use a Mineral Project Evaluation Report to facilitate the need to meet reporting requirements to different entities in a consistent manner.  Reference will also be made to the use of the template in the context of preparing reports to support JORC and NI 43-101 requirements.

Registrants for the event will be sent a link by email that will allow them to download the Mineral Project Evaluation Report Template prior to the webinar on 21st May.
