In 2017, we designed a detailed process for the preparation of technical reports required for the declaration of our mineral reserves and mineral resources in all of our mines and greenfield projects, which were in accordance with the standards set forth in Canada’s National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Industry Guide 7.
In October 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted amendments to its current disclosure rules to modernize the mineral property disclosure requirements for mining registrants. The amendments include the adoption of a new subpart 1300 of regulation S-K (“S-K 1300”), which will govern disclosure for mining registrants (the “SEC Mining Modernization Rules”). The SEC Mining Modernization Rules replace the historical property disclosure requirements for mining registrants that were included in the SEC’s Industry Guide 7 and better align disclosure with international industry and regulatory practices, including the NI 43-101.
Nexa notes that it has voluntarily adopted the SEC’s new disclosure requirements for mining reserves and resources under S-K 1300 for the financial year ended December 31, 2020, which are required to be adopted by registrants in annual reports for the fiscal year beginning on or after January 1, 2021.
We are always working on the updated of our mineral reserves and mineral resources, as presented below. The technical reports, mining reports and press releases related to mineral reserves and mineral resources are available on www.sedar.com and www.sec.gov.
Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources
Nexa Resources announced on March 27, 2024, the publication of updated information relating to mineral reserves and resources as of December 31, 2023. All Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates of the Company disclosed or referenced in this news release have been prepared in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) Definition Standards on Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources dated May 10, 2014 (“2014 CIM Definition Standards”), whose definitions are incorporated by reference in NI 43-101, for the metals indicated per mine and project. Accordingly, such information may not be comparable to the information that is presented in our annual report on Form 20-F prepared in accordance with S-K 1300.

Mineral Resources have effective date as of December 31, 2021. The Qualified Person for the Mineral Resources estimate is Jerry Huaman Abalos, B.Geo., MAusIMM CP (Geo), a Nexa Resources employee. Mineral Resources are reported on a 100% ownership basis. Nexa owns 83.48%. Mineral Resources are estimated at NSR cut-off values of US$5.99/t for porphyry, US$5.51/t for mixed, and US$5.48/t for skarn rock types. Metallurgical recoveries are accounted for in the NSR calculations based on metallurgical data and vary from 79.3% in skarn to 92.5% in San Ernesto porphyry for Cu, 51.3% in skarn and 79.2% in San Ernesto porphyry for Mo, and 70% for Ag. Mineral Resources are estimated using an average long term metal prices of US$7,193.45/t Cu, US$21.34/oz Ag, and US$9.90/lb of Mo. Mineral Resources are reported constrained within a Whittle optimized pit shell. Mineral Resources are stated considering dilution into the regularized block. Bulk density varies depending on mineralization domain.
