Cautionary Statements Regarding
Estimates of Mineral Resources
This news release uses the terms indicated and
inferred mineral resources as a relative measure of the level of
confidence in the resource estimate. Readers are cautioned that
mineral resources are not mineral reserves and that the economic
viability of resources that are not mineral reserves has not been
demonstrated. The mineral resource estimate disclosed in this news
release may be materially affected by geology, environmental,
permitting, legal, title, socio-political, marketing or other
relevant issues. It is reasonably expected that the majority of
Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral
Resources with continued drilling. The mineral resource estimate is
classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining,
Metallurgy and Petroleum’s “CIM Definition Standards on Mineral
Resources and Mineral Reserves” incorporated by reference into NI
43-101 (“CIM”). Under NI 43-101, estimates of inferred mineral
resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility
studies or economic studies except for preliminary economic
assessments. Readers are cautioned not to assume that further work
on the stated resources will lead to mineral reserves that can be
mined economically.

constitute “forward-looking information” or “forward-looking

forward-looking information is subject to many risks and

There are many factors which may cause such disparity, especially
the instability of metal market prices, the results of fluctuations

conditions, political risks brought on by mining in developing
countries, regulatory and governmental policy changes (laws and
policies), failure to obtain the requisite permits and approvals
from government bodies, or any other risk relating to mining and
development. There is no guarantee that the circumstances
anticipated in this forward-looking information will occur, or if
they do occur, how they will benefit Komet. The forward-looking
