Regional Setting. For the last half-century, sediment-hosted, C▇▇▇▇▇-type gold systems have accounted for most economic gold discoveries in Nevada. Mineralization in these environments lies mainly in four geographic belts of mostly Paleozoic carbonate rocks. These belts are located in north-central Nevada, and the three most productive pass through the townsites of Carlin (“C▇▇▇▇▇ Trend”), Battle Mountain (“Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend”) and Golconda (“G▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trend”). The fourth belt, the “Independence Trend”, is located north of the town of Elko and is the location of the Jerritt Canyon group of mines (Queenstake Resources) and the Big Springs Mine (Golden Gate Resources). Collectively, these belts hold a geochemical endowment of over 200 million ounces of gold. A key to understanding this endowment lies in understanding the structural relationships of the stratigraphic section. The Paleozoic era throughout north-central Nevada is a period in which a craton extended from the Mid-Continent westward to about the longitude of present-day Battle Mountain (S▇▇▇▇▇▇, 1980). East of the inferred craton margin was a gently sloping (miogeoclinal) carbonate shelf, consisting of a variety of quiet-water quartzite, limestone, and intrabasinal shale (“Eastern Assemblage” rocks); and west of the margin was a much deeper oceanic environment depositing a sequence of siliciclastic sediments, largely composed of deep-water shale, chert, and volcanic ashes and flows (“Western Assemblage” rocks). During the Paleozoic, sedimentary rocks were structurally deformed by a series of east-directed compressional tectonic events. There were at least two such events of primary importance: A Devonian-Mississippian event, transporting pre-Devonian deep-water sediments eastward ("Antler orogeny") created the R▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mountain and associated thrust faults. This was followed by a Permo-Triassic event, transporting Mississippian to Permian age deep-water sediments eastward ("Sonoma orogeny") creating the Golconda and Humboldt Thrust faults. A period of tectonic quiescence, allowing for the deposition of local basin sands and conglomerates and shallow limestones of the “overlap” sequence, marked erosion and subsidence during Mississippian to Permian times, and separated the two compressional events. Both compressional events deformed rock units into a series of folds, and thrust the western assemblage siliciclastic rocks over the eastern assemblage carbonate rocks, forming one of the principal structural trap...

Regional Setting. The Pingo Canadian Landmark is situated on the Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula. The peninsula is part of an old delta of the Mackenzie River that formed between 12,000 and 600,000 years ago in what is referred to in the geologic time chart as the Pleistocene Epoch. Its hummocky terrain of lake- strewn tundra contains approximately 1,450 conical pingos which project upward from the surrounding landscape in an area that includes the coastal plain of the Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Island, and the south side of Husky Lakes. The Pingo Canadian Landmark is located on the shore of Kugmallit Bay adjacent to the Hamlet of Tuktoyaktuk at approximately 69°23' N and 133°9' W. Tuktoyaktuk is located approximately 120 km northeast from Inuvik, Northwest Territories.

  • Final Settlement The Parties agree and acknowledge that this Compromise Agreement shall constitute a final settlement between the Parties. This Compromise Agreement resolves only issues addressed in the Compromise Agreement.

  • Full and Final Settlement 21.1 This agreement is in full and final settlement of all Union or employee claims relating to employee rights and entitlements. Accordingly, the Union or employees shall not pursue any extra claims, nor take any industrial or protest action concerning any matter explicitly or implicitly dealt with in this agreement. 21.2 In any event: (a) Any work that commences or resumes on a day or shift following a stoppage of work not authorised by management, shall attract ordinary time rates of pay until the full duration of the normal ordinary time period has actually been worked, so that employees shall not be over compensated for work that would have been done in ordinary time but for the stoppage. (b) The Union or employees under this agreement shall not encourage or incite employees (or other persons) not covered by this agreement to take industrial or protest action of any kind.

  • CLOSING AND SETTLEMENT Seller/Landlord shall determine the title company at which settlement shall occur and shall inform Buyer/Tenant of this location in writing. Buyer/Tenant agrees that closing costs in their entirety, including any points, fees, and other charges required by the third-party lender, shall be the sole responsibility of Buyer/Tenant. The only expense related to closing costs apportioned to Seller/Landlord shall be the pro-rated share of the ad valorem taxes due at the time of closing, for which Seller/Landlord is solely responsible.

  • Shift Exchange The Employer and the Union agree that shift exchanges are a useful process to allow employees more flexibility and improved work/life balance. Employees within an institution who have the same job classification will be allowed to exchange full shifts for positions in which they are qualified. The shift exchange process will not be used to circumvent the bid system or the supervisory chain of command. Shift exchanges will be in accordance with the following: A. Request for shift exchanges will be submitted seven (7) calendar days in advance of the exchange, when practicable. B. Requests for shift exchanges will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The requested shift exchange is voluntary, and is agreed to in writing by both employees, and approved in writing by the supervisor(s). Requests for shift exchanges will be submitted to the appropriate Appointing Authority or designee for approval. ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ exchanges may be denied. If denied, the employee will be provided the reason(s) in writing. D. Employees will not submit requests for shift exchanges which would result in overtime. Each employee will be considered to have worked their regular schedule. E. For shift exchanges that occur on an employee’s designated holiday, the employee who is regularly scheduled to work on that holiday will receive the holiday compensation, regardless of who physically worked on that day. F. The failure of an employee who has exchanged shifts to work the agreed upon shift without appropriate cause may be a basis for disciplinary action.

  • Final Settlement Statement (a) As soon as practical and, in any event, no later than ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing Date, Sellers shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) setting forth Sellers’ calculation of the adjustments to the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2.04. The Final Settlement Statement shall be prepared in accordance with this Agreement and on a basis consistent with the preparation of the Closing Statement as described in Section 2.04(d), and shall set forth Sellers’ calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price. (b) Following the delivery of the Final Settlement Statement, Sellers shall afford Buyer the opportunity to examine the Final Settlement Statement and Sellers’ calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price, and such supporting schedules and analyses as are reasonably necessary and appropriate in connection with such review. Sellers shall cooperate with Buyer in such examination, including responding to questions asked by Buyer, and Sellers shall make available to Buyer any records under Sellers’ control that are requested by Buyer in connection with such review. (c) If, within thirty (30) calendar days following delivery of the Final Settlement Statement to Buyer, Buyer has not delivered to Sellers written notice (the “Objection Notice”) of Buyer’s objections to the Final Settlement Statement or Sellers’ calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price (which Objection Notice in order to be valid must contain a statement describing in reasonable detail the items objected to, the basis of such objections and Buyer’s calculation of the amount(s) for the items objected to that Buyer asserts should be used for purposes of the Final Settlement Statement), then the Adjusted Purchase Price as set forth in such Final Settlement Statement shall be deemed final and conclusive. In addition, any of Sellers’ calculations of the Adjusted Purchase Price as set forth in the Final Settlement Statement which are not objected to in the Objection Notice shall be deemed final and conclusive. (d) If Buyer delivers the Objection Notice satisfying Section 2.06(c) above, within such thirty (30)-day period, then Sellers and Buyer shall endeavor in good faith to resolve the objections of Buyer set forth in the Objection Notice for a period not to exceed fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of delivery of the Objection Notice. If at the end of such fifteen (15)-day period there are any objections that remain in dispute, then either Buyer or Sellers may require by written notice to the other that the remaining objections in dispute be submitted for resolution to the Dallas, Texas office of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or to such other independent accounting firm as may be selected jointly by Buyer and Sellers within the ten (10) calendar days following a written request by Buyer or Sellers (▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or such jointly selected accounting firm, the “Referee”). The Referee’s engagement shall be limited to the resolution of disputed amounts set forth in the Final Settlement Statement that have been identified by Buyer in the Objection Notice, which resolution shall be in accordance with this Agreement and no other matter relating to the Final Settlement Statement shall be subject to determination by the Referee except to the extent affected by resolution of the disputed amounts. In connection with the engagement of the Referee, each of Buyer and Sellers shall execute any engagement, indemnity and other agreement as the Referee shall require as a condition to such engagement. If ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP is unable or unwilling to serve as the Referee and Buyer and Sellers are unable to agree upon the designation of a Person as substitute arbitrator, then Buyer or Sellers, or either of them, may in writing request the Bankruptcy Court to appoint the substitute referee; provided that such Person so appointed shall be a national or regional accounting firm with no prior material relationships with Buyer or Sellers or their respective Affiliates and shall have experience in auditing companies engaged in oil and gas wellsite service activities. (e) The Referee shall determine such items of the calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price as are disputed within thirty (30) calendar days after the objections that remain in dispute are submitted to it. (f) If any disputed items are submitted to the Referee for resolution, (i) each of Buyer and Sellers shall furnish to the Referee such workpapers and other documents and information relating to such disputed items as the Referee may request and are available to that Party or its Affiliates (or its independent public accountants) and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Referee any materials relating to the determination of the matters in dispute and to discuss such determination with the Referee prior to any written notice of determination hereunder being delivered by the Referee; (ii) the Referee shall not assign a value to such objection that is greater than the greatest value for such objection claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such objection claimed by either Party; (iii) the determination by the Referee of items of the calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price, as applicable, as set forth in a written notice delivered to Sellers and Buyer by the Referee, shall be made in accordance with this Agreement and shall be binding and conclusive on the Parties and shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and unappealable (absent manifest error or fraud) and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereof; and (iv) the fees and expenses of the Referee (the “Audit Fees”) shall be paid by and apportioned between Buyer and Sellers based on the aggregate dollar amount in dispute and the relative recovery as determined by the Referee or Sellers and Buyer, respectively (such that, by way of example, if the amount in dispute is $100 and it is resolved $70 in favor of Buyer and $30 in favor of Sellers, then Sellers would bear 70% of the Audit Fees and Buyer would bear 30% of the Audit Fees).
