Do you have questions about how to comply with the disclosure requirements of NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects when reporting on your company’s material mineral properties? Are you unsure how to prepare complaint disclosure for the different development stages of a mineral project? Are you being asked to act as a Qualified Person within the Canadian capital markets but are unsure about what is involved in self-assessing your relevant experience? This half-day short course is designed like a quick start guide covering the key aspects of NI 43-101 that a professional should know, including the common misconceptions. Of course, you still need to “read the full manual”, but this course focuses on some fundamental aspects of the disclosure requirements that geoscientists, engineers, and mining company executives need to understand to provide compliant and decision-useful technical information for investors. Technical staff from the British Columbia and Ontario Securities Commissions and the Toronto Stock Exchange will discuss some of the common disclosure deficiencies observed during reviews and exchange listing applications including the top five disclosure deficiencies observed in technical reports which may require a technical report to be amended and refiled. Following the presentations there will be ample time to address attendee’s questions.
