The JORC Code is the Australasian code for reporting of exploration results, mineral resources, and ore reserves used as a professional code of practice that sets minimum standards for public reporting of results. It provides a mandatory system for the classification of minerals exploration results, mineral resources, and ore reserves according to the levels of confidence in geological knowledge and technical and economic considerations in public reports. It has been incorporated in the listing rules of the Australian (ASX) and New Zealand (NZX) stock exchange, making compliance mandatory for listing public companies in the respective countries.
