The QP/CP has to weigh up his/her experience to make a reasonable judgement of the estimate. There may also be legal, economic, geotechnical and metallurgical reasons as to why an estimate cannot be treated as a resource.
The drilling or sampling density must be sufficient to support measured, indicated and inferred resources. Resources should exhibit a “reasonable expectation of being of sufficient quality and quantity to be economically and legally extracted”. Normally this means that measured and indicated resources should fall within an optimized pit or underground mine design based upon reasonable economic, technical and legal criteria.
