The South African code for the reporting of exploration results, mineral resources and mineral reserves (SAMREC)

The South African Code for the Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (the SAMREC Code) sets out minimum standards, recommendations and guidelines for Public Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves in South Africa

The definitions in this edition of the SAMREC Code are either identical to, or not materially different from, those existing standard definitions published in the CRIRSCO Reporting Template 2013.

The Code is applicable to the reporting of all styles of solid mineralisation or economic deposit. Certain commodities, namely coal, diamonds/gemstones and industrial minerals, have specific additional reporting requirements and these are dealt with from Clause 48 onwards. The Code does not apply to oil, gas or water. The South Africa Oil and Gas Code (SAMOG) is applicable for oil and gas.
