Webinar: An update on the JORC Code Review

Join JORC for their webinar: An update on the JORC Code Review.

About this event

The Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves ('the JORC Code') is a professional code of practice that sets minimum standards for Public Reporting of minerals Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves.

The Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) initiated an update to the Code to address issues identified in the application of the Code since it was last revised, and a draft was released in August 2024 for public consultation.

During this consultation phase, over 8,200 comments were received on the draft documents. JORC working groups have reviewed and considered all feedback received.

JORC will present an update on the JORC Code Review, including feedback received and the direction of changes to date. There will be an opportunity to submit questions.

The webinar will be recorded and made available on the JORC website when available.

JORC Parent Bodies: AusIMM, AIG and MCA.

Webinar time: 7.00pm - 8.00pm AEST.
