Event Summary: What is National Instrument 43-101? What is its role in the mining industry? How can the general public benefit from it? Developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA), NI 43-101 is a regulatory standard that governs how companies disclose information about mineral projects to the public in Canada.  As the name suggests, this “National Instrument” applies uniformly across all provincial and territorial legislatures, ensuring transparent reporting. The Disclosure Instrument applies to both oral statements and written documents, including websites, ensuring transparency and accuracy in reporting of mining-related information.  Canadian mining and mineral exploration companies must follow specific rules for public disclosure which are designed to improve the accuracy and integrity of the information they provide on properties material to the company. During the webinar, the prescribed format for the 43-101 Technical Document will be discussed.  The presentation will include discussions on:

• How the disclosure standards apply to oral statements as well as written documents and websites.
• NI 43-101 does not apply to disclosure concerning petroleum, natural gas, bituminous sands or shales, groundwater, or coal bed methane.
  • The disclosure must be based on information provided by a “qualified person”.
  • In some circumstances, the qualified person has to be independent of the company and the property.
  • A company is required to use specified terminology defined by CIM when disclosing mineral resources and mineral reserves.
