Indicated reserves

Sometimes called probable reserves. This category has much in common with measured reserves, except the level of testing is less thorough and therefore confidence in the amount of reserves is less certain. As they are still called reserves, they are economically viable to be extracted and are likely to have more testing conducted on them to determine an accurate quantity at which point they would be reclassified as measured reserves.
