Short Courses
THREE DAY SHORT COURSE | SUNDAY DECEMBER 1 MONDAY DECEMBER 2 & TUESDAY DECEMBER 3
USING SRCE VERSION 2.0 –
NEW AND UPDATED TRAINING
Cost: $650 ~ Cascade 1
Instructor: Jeff Parshley, P.G., C.P.G., C.E.M, Group Chairman, SRK Consulting (U.S.), Inc., Reno, NV
Course Description
The Standardized Reclamation Cost Estimator (SRCE) is a public domain Microsoft
Excel-based tool that has been used in Nevada for more than 10 years to calculate mine closure costs for financial assurance. The SRCE uses straightforward user inputs to create a first-principles estimate of closure costs. In addition to the Nevada-specific version, another version of SRCE is available for use in other states and internationally.
Over the last two years the non-Nevada version has been significantly upgraded with nu- merous new features and improved performance to create SRCE 2.0. The new features greatly expand the capabilities and functionality of the model – so much that we have completely re-vamped our standard SRCE training short course.
Because so many of the new features focus on things like detailed cost scheduling, filter- ing, and tracking costs by category, we have completely updated our curriculum to focus on strategizing the model setup based on site or company specific needs, and the type and intent of the cost estimate.
There will still be a heavy emphasis on hands-on training, but after an initial few simple exercises, we will focus on closure cost types, how to set up a closure chart of accounts, developing useful filters, and effective scheduling for project-specific needs. Because the scope of the training has expanded beyond the introductory nature of previous short courses, this will be a three-day short course.
Attendees will need to bring a laptop computer and engineering scale ruler for the hands-on exercises. If users wish to bring an existing SRCE model from a previous ver- sion, we will show them the process of importing that model into SRCE Version 2.0.
TWO DAY SHORT COURSES | MONDAY DECEMBER 2 & TUESDAY DECEMBER 3
MISSION CRITICAL TRAINING FOR MINE PERMITTING ON FEDERAL LANDS
Cost: $450 ~ Cascade 3
Instructors: Mike Doran, Mining Geologist – Mineral Property Evaluation, LLC, Federal Certified Mineral Examiner, Boise, ID

UNDERSTANDING THE SEC’S NEW MINING
DISCLOSURE RULE: S-K 1300
Cost: $450 ~ Cascade 2
Instructors: Greg Gosson, Technical Director, Geology & Compliance, Wood, Vancouver,
BC Canada
Stella Searston, Consulting Geologist, Mine Technical Services, Denver, CO
Course Description
The new SEC rule rescinds Industry Guide 7 and consolidates all mineral property disclosure requirements into Regulation S-K 1300. The new rule modernizes disclosure requirements since IG 7 dates back to 1982, and provides investors with a more com- prehensive understanding of registrant’s mineral properties. The new rule more closely aligns the SEC’s disclosure requirements and policies for mineral properties with current industry and global regulatory practices and standards. S-K 1300 became effective Feb- ruary 25, 2019 and mining registrants can voluntarily immediately comply with the new rule. All mining registrants with the SEC must comply from January 1st, 2021 onward.
This short course will compare Regulation S-K 1300 disclosure requirements to the cur- rent SEC Industry Guide 7 and will cover the following topics on Regulation S-K 1300:
Course participants will be provided with a course completion certificate.
SECURITY MANAGEMENT COURSE
Cost: $450 ~ Cascade 4
Instructor: Joe Fifield, Safety & Security Manager, SRK Exploration Services Ltd, Stock- port, UK
Course Description
Due to increasing foreign exploration budgets and mining investment in developing nations the minerals industry is faced with new and more frequent threats from human and natural sources. Kidnapping has become commonplace in some parts of the world as are natural disasters in locations with minimal emergency response plan. Sadly, vio- lent extremism or terrorism and the minerals industry are beginning to occupy some of the same spaces.
This two-day short course is designed for both management and field personnel. It explores a number of critical issues and possible risk situations related to working in high risk, uncontrollable, environments. In addition to an overview of current risks, we will talk about how to develop security management plans, threat assessment, preparing travel risk assessments, security risk management, and how to respond to a crisis. We will consider situations created from both natural and human causes, such as kidnap- ping, violent extremism, and earthquakes.
The course will be taught by a former British special forces operative who has been consulting with the minerals industry for more than 20 years in security management in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and South America.

Cost: $300 ~ Redwood 6
Instructor: Uwe Kӧnig, Product Marketing XRD, Malvern Panalytical, Netherlands
Course Description
This workshop aims to provide mining professionals an overview of analytical techniques that can add efficiency and productivity to today’s mining operations. Analytical techni- ques covered include X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry, X-ray Diffraction, fusion sample preparation, particle size analysis, elemental analyzers on-line, Near Infrared (NIR), and analysis automation for the production process, from mineral exploration to quality control and environmental impacts. Attendees will learn about the practical useage of these techniques at different types of mining operations, performance specifications, typical applications, and comparison of techniques. Proper analytical techniques can ensure maximum useage of minerals and mining waste materials, assure product quality and consistency, reduce environmental impact by monitoring of waste streams, detect problematic phases such as swelling clays, and provide valuable feedback to optimize control of operations such as grinding/milling.
HEAP LEACHING TECHNOLOGY
Cost: $ 300 ~ Cascade 5
Instructor: Thom Seal, Ph.D.,P.E., Q.P., Mining – Metallurgical – Mineral Process Engineer, Director of the Institute of Mineral Resource Studies Barrick Gold of North America Professor, Mackay School of Earth Sciences and Engineering, Univer- sity of Nevada, Reno
Course Description
The technology of heap leaching gold and silver ores originated at the University of Nevada, Reno and the US Bureau of Mines on the campus. The class will cover the history of the evolution of this technology to today’s heap leach operations which represented about 10% of the gold production in 2004. Gold and silver heap leaching in Nevada is big with man made mountains that provide the economics for the large open pit mines to be profitable from material that was previously waste rock.
Presentations in the class will be made by leaders in the field led by Dr. Thom Seal, PE, a UNR professor and inventor and developer of the Hydro-JexTM 3-D heap leaching technology, who will address the history and theory of heap leaching. Dr. Carl Nesbitt, Principal Metallurgist for Welsh Hagen of Reno will add his expertise on the hydrometallurgy occurring in the heap leaching process. Dr. Seal will inform the class
participants on the proper sampling of material for heap leach testing, while elaborating on agglomeration, column leaching and metallurgical lab tests. Expert consultants will lay the foundation for the construction of heap leach pads by a presentation on the Geotechnical Aspects of Heap Leaching. Heap Leach operations and optimization will be presented by Dr. Seal. A representative from UNR will present basic economic data on the heap leach technology. Dr. Seal will conclude the class on the subject of closure and reclamation of heap leach pads.
Preliminary presentations include:

NEW MINING IN OLD DISTRICTS –
Are they the future of new mine development in the U.S.?
Area of Interest – Operations ~ Room – Cascade 3
Chaired by: Doug Stiles, General Manager, Hecla Montana, Hecla Mining Company, Coeur d’Alene, ID
Session Description:
Sometimes, the best place to find a new prospect is in an area with historical success. Not only can historic mining districts present a wealth of geologic and past production information, but existing infrastructure and favorable land positions present many new project attractants. Furthermore, yesterday’s cut-off grade could be today’s high-grade AND yesterday’s no-value byproduct could be today’s primary resource. With greenfield development in the US becoming more difficult, do old districts hold special promise as providing safe(r) harbor for new project development? In this session, we will hear from a number of new prospects arising from past projects or within known mining districts. The project proponents will provide their view on how known resource areas could be the future of new mine development in the US.

LARGE LEFT LATERAL LEAPS TO GEOLOGIC
Area of Interest – Mineral Deposits, Geology & Exploration ~ Room – Cascade 2 Chaired by: E. Max Baker, VP Exploration, Integra Resources Corp., Reno, NV Session Description:
In keeping with tradition of the LLL session of lively and provocative but light-hearted talks
with some cold beverages to lubricate the process. This year’s talks will focus on recent innovations and improvements which can help circumvent some of the ‘bottle-necks’ we encounter in the process of exploring for non-outcropping mineral deposits. Discoveries from outcrop are becoming a thing of the past, todays explorers are forced to explore for concealed targets with progressively dwindling funds, can we do it? Faced with these seemingly insurmountable challenges, the innovative use of both new and old but improved technologies, such as those to be discussed here, provides the adventurous explorer with a clear competitive advantage over the competition;

MINING HYDROLOGY – PIT LAKES
Area of Interest – Operations ~ Room – Cascade 3
Chaired by: Mike Hardy, Senior Project Manager, Lumos & Associates, Reno, NV and
Ronald Parratt Jr., Environmental Specialist, Newmont Mining Corporation, Reno, NV
Session Description:
Pit Lakes are commonly the end result of large scale surface mining operations which in- tercepted the groundwater table. These lakes form when active dewatering is terminat- ed once the mineral resource has been mined. The filling of the pit with water continues for several years until the lake surface is approximately equal to the original elevation of the groundwater table. Regulations associated with pit lakes state generally that mining operations cannot degrade the quality of groundwater below pre-defined standards or the water quality in the area before it was mined. Even more specific to pit lakes, the pit lake cannot pose an adverse threat to human, terrestrial or avian life. In addition, the annual evaporation (Consumptive Use) that occurs from these lakes need to have senior water rights associated with them. This year’s Mining Hydrology session will present the permitting, regulatory, and reclamation challenges associated with pit lakes.

Session Description:
This interactive session will include some brief presentations on the road that the indus- try traveled during the last three years to successfully defeat the Obama administration’s CERCLA 108b draft rule, which could have been an existential threat to the industry.
There were a lot of moving parts in the effort and numerous parties working together to dodge this bullet.
And now we are facing several new potential existential threats such as the Grijalva bill (H.R. 2579). In this session we will analyze what worked in the 108b battle, why those things worked, and attempt to develop an industry collaboration framework that we can used to deflect the next existential threat heading our way and any that follow.
Audience participation mandatory. Beer will be served to lubricate the discussions. Panel members include:
