The estimates I highlighted in green are the INDICATED ones, that is, much more accurate than INFERRED but without the extra sampling and geologist validation of MEASURED resources.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_resource_classification:

Indicated resources are simply economic mineral occurrences that have been sampled (from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits and drillholes) to a point where an estimate has been made, at a reasonable level of confidence, of their contained metal, grade, tonnage, shape, densities, physical characteristics[3].
