At Caracle Creek, our team of Qualified Persons (QP) can conduct thorough and efficient reviews and reporting on your project to improve exploration viability and mining reality.
Industry Standard Reporting (NI 43-101, JORC, SAMREC), Caracle Creek has completed technical reviews and reports for its international clients and has experience in database compilation (geological, geophysical and geochemical) including data interpretation and management, and in composing Independent Technical Reports on properties involving numerous commodity types.
As part of this process, we assess the economic, political and environmental factors which may preclude the project from becoming viable. The Due Diligence process is outlined in the following steps:
A sensible Property Valuation of your mineral exploration property will assess its current (market) and potential value. In order to get the most out of a Property Valuation for a mineral property at the exploration stage, it is important that both the valuator and the user of the valuation understand the uncertainties involved. A good source for understanding the process is the CIMVal Standards and Guidelines for Valuation of Mineral Properties (www.cim.org).
It is important that the Valuator be independent and have the necessary qualifications and exploration experience relevant to the property being valued, so that the requirements of the relevant national reporting standard (CIMVal Standards and Guidelines, Canada/SAMVAL Code, South Africa/VALMINCode, Australia) can be satisfied.
Although a valuation should be based on using more than one valuation method, the primary method applied depends on the nature of the valuation, the development status of the mineral property and the reliability of available information. In the mining industry, there are three generally accepted valuation approaches: (1) Income Approach; (2) Market Approach; and, (3) Cost Approach.
Cost or Market approaches are applied to exploration and early-stage properties with mineral resources whereas the Income Approach would be applied to later-stage properties with mineral resources/reserves.
As veterans in mineral exploration and mineral/mining lands management, we have experience in many of the mining jurisdictions around the world including Canada, the USA, Chile, Peru, and parts of Africa.
We can help you acquire and manage your mineral/mining lands:
We can assist your team in the application for new tenements, prospecting permits, and mineral exploration permits. We offer land monitoring services and alerts to keep you informed of any activities that are happening around your current tenements, due dates (claims and assessment work), royalty and option payments, and taxes. We can even monitor claims of areas of interest.
With almost 30 years in the mineral exploration and mining industry and as Past President (2010-2012) and a past Director (2002-2010) of the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC), Caracle Creek’s President & CEO, Dr. Scott Jobin-Bevans, has developed an extensive international network in the extractives industry.
By leveraging this extensive network along with networks through Caracle Creek’s offices Scott and his team can work with you and your team to market your projects, properties, and services, and help you to increase your industry profile and to assist in the raising of capital from the financial markets.
