Introduction

• Arising from this work, Straits announced in March 2011 a Mineral Resource increase of 56%, subsequently updated as at 31 December 2011 to a combined Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource* of 19.54 mt at 1.9 g/tonne Au and 42 g/tonne Ag for 1.214 million oz. gold and 26.4 million oz. of silver, primarily from a single resource drillout pass to 250 metres in depth below the Serujan open pit.

• A 6 year open pit mine plan has now been established that will deliver a minimum of 100,000 plus oz. Au Eq. from FY2013 underwritten by an increase in Ore Reserves** to 734,000 oz AuEq as at 31 December 2011.

• This Probable Ore Reserve* comprises 6.82 million tonnes at 2.5 g/tonne Au and 59 g/tonne Ag for 515,000 oz Au recovered and 9,680,000 oz Ag recovered.

• This plan, now being executed, will deliver reducing cash costs as production increases, with the plan targeting

• A reduction of cash costs from the current level of US$1,400/oz AuEq to US$550/oz AuEq by year six.

• Average cash costs of US$775/oz AuEq over the six year plan or approximately US$915/oz AuEq inclusive of capitalised waste.

• At 31 December 2011. Classified Mineral Resource estimates can be found at Page 28. ** At 31 December 2011. Classified Ore Reserves can be found at Page 34.

Introduction

• Our future focus is to

• Complete the pre strip and ramp up of the Serujan mine, stabilise production and reduce costs.

• Continue drilling out and testing the five principal epithermal systems to a minimum depth of 250 metres (approx US$12 million exploration spend in FY13).

• Continue to define the open pittable planning envelopes and extend the Mineral Resources and Reserves in order to deliver in excess of 100,000 oz AuEq per annum over the longer term.

• Define the gross underground resource envelopes so as to shape future targeted underground exploration.

• Maximize the throughput of the Mt Muro process plant, currently operating at 53% capacity.

Business Plan

15

Business Plan

• Straits‟ strategy at Mt Muro is to create growth and value by drawing on our long term investment and presence in Indonesia (20 years), our installed infrastructure, our established counterparty, local and government relationships but more importantly our established position with respect to the latent geological opportunity which is still revealing itself.

• Flowing from our recapitalisation program commenced in 2010, Mt Muro now has sufficient Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves to underpin a 6 year mine plan which will deliver in excess of 100,000 oz pa of gold equivalent by FY2013 principally from the Serujan and Bantian re-developments.

• Exploration based growth and value will be delivered by continuing with the execution of the brownfields / near mine exploration strategy, conservatively less than 10% completed, which is targeted to

• Test mineralised structures to a minimum of 250 metres vertical depth to define the overall open pit planning envelope.

• Replenish mine depletion whilst extending Ore Reserves to target a possible 150,000 oz AuEq production rate over a minimum eight to ten year mine life.

• Continue to explore the Mt Muro volcanic terrain in accordance with the exploration plan and target discoveries capable of delivering incremental bolt on increases of 100,000 to 150,000 oz AuEq per annum from new sources.

• Test deeper structural positions to identify further underground potential.

• Production based growth and value will be delivered by

Mt Muro Grinding Circuit and Serujan Open Pit.

• Completing the mine development and prestrip phases at Serujan to establish a base production source.

• Targeting a future production rate of 150,000 oz AuEq

• Maximising mill throughput (current capacity of 1.7 mtpa) as additional production sources at Bantian, Hulubai and Permata are brought online.

16

Production Plan

Current Mine Production Plan

• Straits current scheduled production plan delivers well in excess of 100,000 oz of gold equivalent per annum by FY2013 from the Serujan and Bantian mines.

• A one year program targeting site optimisation and debottlenecking is in progress.

• This project is expected to assist with the incremental improvement of mine performance, as well as reinforcing production, productivity and cost improvements to target cash operating costs of US$900/oz AuEq in FY2013 and average costs of US$775/oz AuEq over the six year plan (approximately US$915/oz AuEq. inclusive of capitalised waste).

• Resource definition (mine exploration) spend is now increasing from $9 million pa in 2010/11 and the first half of 2011/12 to the current level of $12 million pa to accelerate the identification of mineral resources and ore reserves to underwrite delivery of our longer term targeted production level of 150,000 oz AuEq.

• Should this level be achieved, target cash operating costs will be supported at levels between US$600 and US$700/oz AuEq.

Exploration & Geology

18

Exploration

• We consider Mt Muro to be a minimum 8 million ounce gold (equivalent) system.

• The global pre mine Mineral Resource inventory at Mt Muro to date is estimated as

Tonnes Au oz Ag oz AuEq Mined to Dec 2011 14.76 million 1.79 moz 40.2 moz 2.70 moz Mineral Resource 19.54 million 1.21 moz 26.4 moz 1.82 moz Total 34.30 million 4.52 moz*

In addition, our Exploration Targets*** ranges separated into Open Pit and Underground are

Tonnes AuEq g/t AuEq Open Pit 9.2 to 18 million 4 to 5 g/tonne 1.1 to 2.7 moz Underground 5.4 to 10.6 9 to 10 g/tonne 1.5 to 3.4 moz Total 14.6 to 28.6 6 to 7 g/tonne 2.6 to 6.1 moz*

• The target pre mine inventory at Mt Muro is therefore estimated as being between 7.1 and 10.6 million oz AuEq.

• Au Eq. means gold equivalent, and in this paper is calculated using US$1,500/oz Au and US$34/oz Ag.

• ** At 31 December 2011. Classified Mineral Resource estimates can be found at Page 28. *** Exploration Target quantities and grades described in this paper only relate to Serujan, Bantian, Kerikil, Hulubai and Permata, are conceptual in nature, and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource (other than those explicitly stated). It is uncertain that further exploration will result in the determination of additional Mineral Resources. The basis for Exploration Target quantities are described in more detail in Slide 52.

19

Exploration

• Exploration based growth is being driven by a strategy commenced in 2010 to determine the potential of the principal Serujan, Kerikil, Permata and Hulubai structures to host mineralisation below the existing mined areas.

• The initial plan is to drill test resources to approximately 250 metres vertical depth and define the overall open pittable planning envelope at these deposits.

• We currently estimate that we have completed less than 10% of this program.

• The program also provides for the testing of the higher grade shoots to the base of the Exploration Target*** at 550 metres depth as well as beyond, some of which has already commenced.

• This program has so far resulted in an increase of the Mineral Resource** estimate to 1,815,000 oz. AuEq as at December 2011, a 93% increase.

• Au Eq. means gold equivalent, and in this paper is calculated using US$1,500/oz Au and US$34/oz Ag.

• ** At 31 December 2011. Classified Mineral Resource estimates can be found at Page 28. *** Exploration Target quantities and grades described in this paper only relate to Serujan, Bantian, Kerikil, Hulubai and Permata, are conceptual in nature, and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource (other than those explicitly stated).

Geology

• The Mt Muro Gold – Silver Mine is located in the Central Kalimantan Volcanic Suture.

• Mineralisation at Mt Muro is polyphase, and veins are usually re-annealed tectonic breccia‟s with quartz-sulphides in hydrothermally layered fault and fracture zones which cross cut the andesitic volcanic and pyroclastic rocks. Veins are dominantly composed of quartz and/or carbonate with subordinate sericite, illite, adularia and abundant kaolinite. Veins are often coliform to crustiform with banded quartz and banded carbonate.

• Veins are typically 0.5 to 15 metres wide, with footwall breccias 0.3 to 2 metres wide, hangingwall alteration haloes up to 6 metres in thickness and occasional hangingwall stockwork zones. The (oxidised) Serujan vein is shown at bottom right.

Geology

• There are a few key points to note with respect to the geology of the Mt Muro Gold – Silver Mine

• The Mt Muro Contract of Work area is a well endowed mineral field whose production has exceeded 2.7 million ounces of gold equivalent, mostly from within the top 100 metres.

• The five main gold bearing structures hosting the Permata, Hulubai, Bantian and Serujan pits have historically produced 1.7 million oz. of gold equivalent and Kerikil produced 0.425 million oz gold equivalent alone. The cumulative strike length of ore bearing structures at these systems is greater than 10 km.

• This does not include systems that have been mined post 2005 by Straits Resources (Gerantung, Tengkanong, Arong Maan, Jalan, Bukit etc) that warrant further exploration at depth.

• The five historical open pits have been mined to depths ranging from 50 to 150 metres, generally to 55 to 80 metres and the ratio of strike length to pit depth is 15:1

• The major Mt Muro vein systems have the potential to host significant additional epithermal gold and silver formed by multiple mineralisation events below the existing pits to depths of at least 500 metres.

22

Geology – Serujan

• The Serujan Mine is located 2 km by haul road from the mill and was originally mined as two pits between September 1994 and February 1999 (Serujan Central) and between September 1999 and August 2000 (Serujan East). Mining was undertaken to depths ranging from 10 to 80 metres over a combined strike length of 1,500 metres, with the majority undertaken to approximately 60 to 70 metres.

• The pre mining measured and indicated resource as stated by Aurora / Kilborn above a 1.0 g/tonne Au cog as 2,555,680 tonnes at 3.67 g/tonne Au and 121.3 g/tonne Ag.

• Extensional drill programs under Serujan which Straits commenced in 2010, confirmed lode continuity over 1,500 metres, with veins continuing to dip at 60º north and at true widths of up to 20 metres.

• As a result of this recent work, Serujan mineral resources were increased from 240,000 oz. Au Eq. to 583,000 oz AuEq or 4.2 mt at 2.7 g/tonne Au and 70 g/tonne Ag as at 31 December 2011.

Geology – Bantian

• Bantian is located approximately 10 km by road from the mill and 600 metres to the West of the Permata – Hulubai system.

• The Bantian vein system was originally mined to approximately 50 metres depth over a strike length 2,800 metres and drilled to 60 metres.

• The original pre mining measured and indicated resource was stated by Aurora / Kilborn above a 1.0 g/tonne Au cog as 338,000 tonnes at 3.91 g/tonne Au and 114.8 g/tonne Ag.

• Resource drilling below the historical pits that commenced in 2010 focused on Serujan, however a targeted 100 metre pass was conducted along the strike of the Bantian lode system which resulted in confirmation of lode continuity and preferential structural positions of high grade shoots within the overall structure which strikes over 3 km long, dipping to the west at approximately 70 degrees.

• As a result, Bantian mineral resources were increased from zero at the start of the program to 363,000 oz AuEq or 5.2 mt at 1.4 g/tonne Au and 33 g/tonne Ag as at 31 December 2011.

Geology – Permata

• Permata is located approximately 9 km from the mill and was originally mined between January 1996 and April 2002 to depths ranging from 80 to 100 metres over a 1,200 metre strike.

• The original pre mining measured and indicated resource was stated by Aurora / Kilborn above a 1.0 g/tonne Au cog as 1,425,000 tonnes at 3.0 g/tonne Au and 78 g/tonne Ag.

• Lodes at Permata – Hulubai are emplaced along a regional north – northwest striking fault zone of combined strike length of 2.4 km.

• Resource drilling below the historical pits that commenced in 2010 focused on Serujan, however a limited amount of drilling was conducted at Permata targeting interpreted plunging shoots.

• As a result of this limited drilling, Permata mineral resources were increased from zero prior to this program, to 91,000 oz AuEq or 0.6 mt at 2.6 g/tonne Au and 94 g/tonne Ag as at 31 December 2011.

Geology – Hulubai

• Hulubai is the northern extension of the eastern limb of the Permata system. Hulubai was mined between May 1996 and May 2002 to depths ranging from 70 to 100 metres over a strike length of 1,200 metres, with most mining conducted to approximately 80 metres. Drilling was conducted to approximately 80 metres.

• The original pre mining measured and indicated resource was stated by Aurora / Kilborn above a 1.0 g/tonne Au cog as 2,010,000 tonnes at 4.6 g/tonne Au and 67 g/tonne Ag.

• Resource drilling below the historical pits that commenced in 2010 focused on Serujan, however a limited amount of drilling was conducted at Hulubai.

• As a result of this limited drilling, Hulubai mineral resources were increased from zero prior to this program to 118,000 oz AuEq or 0.64 mt at 3.0 g/tonne Au and 121 g/tonne Ag as at 31 December 2011.

Mining Operations – Serujan Mine

• The Serujan mine is a conventional drill blast, load and haul operation utilising rigid and articulated trucks and backhoe configured excavators.

• The extensional drilling program that commenced in 2010,

• Demonstrated lode continuity between Serujan East and Serujan Central,

• Allowed optimisations and mine planning which resulted in the joining and the deepening of the two historical pits into a single large Serujan open cut mine, and

Original Serujan East open pit mine, as designed, looking North East. Original Serujan Central mine to bottom left.

• As a result, led to an increase of the Ore Reserve from 730,000 tonnes at 2.3 g/tonne Au and 83.6 g/tonne Ag in 2010 to a Probable Ore Reserve* of 3.12 million tonnes at 2.9 g/tonne Au and 79 g/tonne Au or 4.2 g/tonne AuEq for 407,000 oz AuEq recovered as at 31 December 2011.

• The adjacent images show the original historical open pits, the initial starter pit located over Serujan East, and (lower) the current Serujan design pit, now in development.

Processing

35

Processing Operations

• The Mt Muro processing plant was designed and built by BHP Engineering from Perth, Western Australia in 1993/94.

• Run of mine ore is dumped by front end loader or directly by dump trucks into both Run of Mine (ROM) bins, equipped with static 500 mm slotted grizzly's.

• Grizzly underflow feeds two automatically controlled variable speed apron feeders which supply ore at rates of up to 150 tph to each of the primary jaw crushers.

• The jaw crushers used are Brown Lennox 120 model (42” x 36” aperture) and an ANI 120 XS model (42” x 30”/36” aperture), both rated at 75kW. Crusher product, nominally p100 of 150mm is fed directly via conveyors to the single stage SAG mill.

• Both jaw crushers feed the SAG mill at a current maximum throughput of 185 tph controlled via weightometer and variable speed crusher aprons. The SAG mill is a 3,500 kW Morgardshammar 5.35 m ID x 7.3 m EGL.

Mt Muro CIP / Merrill-Crowe Processing Plant

• Gold is cyanide leached within the Leach circuit, comprising 4 x 2,600 m[3] tanks which provide 72 hours retention. Leach feed is preconditioned at the SAG mill with lime (sourced locally) or caustic as pH and viscosity modifiers.

• Leach discharge is directed to the carbon in pulp circuit (CIP) for recovery of gold and silver to carbon. Comprising eight tanks of 483 m[3] each, residence time is nominally 18 hours.

• Carbon advances counter-currently through the CIP circuit and loaded carbon is directed to one of two AARL 11.5 x 1.66 m elution columns. Each column processes 10.5 tonnes of carbon with gold and silver stripped from the carbon using a cyanide/caustic pre-soak followed by water elution.

Operations Staff

36

Processing Operations

• Gold and silver is recovered via a Merrill Crowe zinc precipitation process. The gold and silver bearing solution (eluate) is drawn manually from a deaeration tower where zinc powder is added to the process as it is pumped to the filter presses.

• Gold and silver precipitates from the solution, which is then filtered in two Perrin, 38 chamber 1,200 mm filter presses. Precipitate from the presses is batch recovered daily and calcinated prior to smelting. The electric calcine ovens heat the precipitate to 800º C over 4 to 6 hours to convert residual Pb, Cu and Fe oxides prior to smelting.

• Smelting of the precipitate is conducted in a tilting distillate fired furnace.

Sales and Marketing

• PT IMK produces doré, a combined silver and gold product.

• As mandated by the Indonesian Government, all doré is refined at PT. Logam Mulia (PT. LM) in Jakarta. In Mt Muro‟s case, doré is refined into gold and silver granules for export.

• Gold and silver content in doré is variable as a result of differences in mine feed grades and which mines are operating, but will typically average 4 to 5% gold and 85 to 90% silver, the balance being impurities that are removed during the refining process at PT. LM.

Environment

• Disturbances at Mt Muro are rehabilitated as soon as practically possible and it is common for planting and rehabilitation to commence the same day that landform construction is completed.

• Rehabilitation involves the profiling of waste rock dumps, development of suitable drainage channels and drop down structures, wetland areas where suitable, placement of topsoil, revegetation with grown covers and local tree species.

Planting

• In this high rainfall environment, vegetation is rapid, which coupled with the development of water control structures aids early soil erosion control and minimises sediment runoff.

• Mt Muro manages an award winning and extensive plant nursery, where local species are propagated for future rehabilitation planting.

Community

• PT. IMK operates in the Regency of Murung Raya, Province of Central Kalimantan, Indonesia.

• The Regency is approximately 24,000 km[2] in area of which 75% is forest. It contains 10 separate districts and 125 villages and a population of approximately 100,000 persons.

• Of the 125 villages, 25, or approximately 15,000 people are our immediate neighbours.

• There are a mixture of peoples, comprising Dayak Siang, Dayak Murung, Dayak Bakumpai and Barjar, „transmigrassi‟ Indonesians from Java, Sumatra, Sulewesi and elsewhere in Indonesia, as well as Chinese and other Asian immigrants.

• The Regency has „inland‟ and „river‟ areas, each with its own unique characteristics.

Mt Muro river (Barito) communities

• The principal economic activity is slash and burn agriculture (ladangs), rubber trees and artisanal, or community mining practices.

• PT. IMK works with the Indonesian Government bodies to try and improve the living conditions and long term sustainability of the communities in which it operates and under Straits‟ ownership, has been working with the community and the government delivering structured community development programs since 2004.

• These programs focus on community empowerment, primarily through training and capacity building programs and the fostering of self help groups.

Artisanal Mining

• The distribution of small and large high grade vein systems across the Mt Muro area, and across the Kalimantan volcanic belt in general, means that artisanal mining is an activity that is widely available to the population and has been practiced for many, and possibly hundreds of years.

• Mining is undertaken by dredging and sluicing of alluvial placer deposits, recovering gold and silver shed from the countryside, or underground mining via small shafts accessing small veins (typically uneconomic to PT. IMK).

• Not sanctioned by the Government, which has policies and programs in place to reduce these practices, nonetheless artisanal mining provides a significant part of the communities income with low barriers to entry.

• Of concern are the health and safety issues arising from people operating unregulated in small underground excavations as well as the use of mercury and occasionally cyanide, to extract the gold from the ore they mine.

Artisanal shaft mining

• Artisanal mining does not materially interfere with PT. IMK‟s assets, plans and operations.

• PT. IMK deals with artisanal mining in the Contract of Work area through

• Collaboration with the local and provincial governments to assist with the implementation of their management and education programs,

• Engagement and collaboration with the local communities, providing training and education programs, particularly with respect to the dangers and health impacts of using mercury for gold recovery,

• Monitoring, and

• Physical separation of artisanal mining from PT.IMK‟s current and future operating area‟s.

Exploration Targets

• The basis of the Exploration Targets referred to in this presentation are set out below.

• Assumptions made include

• the potential volume of mineralised material under the five mentioned open pits based on the known (existing and exposed) strike length, an assumed vein width, an assumed depth, an estimated specific density and an estimation of the percent of mineralised material to derive an Exploration Target mineralised tonnage.

• In the case of open pits, Exploration Target grade ranges have been based on current mineral resource grades.

• In the case of underground Exploration Target grade ranges, these are estimated from available drill data.

• These assumptions have been based on our 2D and 3D modeling, our reviews of the metallogenic and grade / structural relationships within each shoot based on existing data and an estimation of mineralised volume and grade within each structure.

Exploration Target quantities and grades described in this paper only relate to the Serujan, Bantian, Kerikil, Hulubai and Permata deposits, are conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource (other than those explicitly stated).

It is uncertain that further exploration will result in the determination of additional Mineral Resources.
