RE: Amine Software for Resource Estimates...

RE: Amine Software for Resource Estimates...

My point was that you CAN use Amine for resource estimation, but MOST companies use the other packages I mentioned which have more "tools" and allow you to do a broader number of things in modeling your geology and interpolating grades. Amine is more of a mine planning package. See for yourself on their website: https://www.flairbase.com/WEBSITE/EN/amine.html .

There's nothing inherently wrong with Amine, but it's not designed primarily as a resource estimation tool where the other packages are. I think that's why you rarely see it mentioned in NI43-101 compliant resource estimates. In my opinion, for a deposit of the reported size and geological complexity as Cow Mountain, I think you would want to use the best modeling package available to best interpolate the grades. If you were doing your tax return, would you use an abacus, a pen and paper or a calculator/computer? (probably a computer to calculate all your capital gains from your BGM investment, right? ;-) )

Anyhow, you probably get the point...
