DZP Financial Summary
Front End Engineering Design (FEED) completed August 2015 on 1Mtpa ore processed
Capex US$0.97B / US$77M contingency Revenue US$430 - $470Mpa Opex US$195Mpa EBITDA US$235 - $275Mpa 20 year NPV US$0.92B (8%) and 17.5% IRR
Revenue based upon Chinese domestic rare earth prices and current spot ranges for Zr and Nb, and a long term sustainable Hf price.
Rare earth revenues largely derived from Pr, Nd, Tb, Dy and Y (for production of RE magnets and special ceramics/alloys)
==> picture [354 x 219] intentionally omitted <==
Operating costs to produce a kilogram of product range from US$7.00 to US$8.00/kg
Revenue averages US$17.00/kg (REO US$23/kg or US$56/kg without La/Ce; Zr US$8.26/kg; Hf US$800/kg; Nb US$40/kg) Capital intensity ~ US$35/kg of product

The DZP Advantage
==> picture [12 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
Internationally strategic with supply of several critical metals from non-Chinese sources
==> picture [12 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
Business case has robust revenues, even at current Chinese domestic RE and Zr prices
==> picture [12 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
Full spectrum of rare earth magnet materials – neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium and terbium produced, as well as other “heavy” rare earths and yttrium which have developing advanced materials applications
==> picture [12 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
The DZP’s diversified output gives a very different revenue profile to Lynas’ Mt Weld and Molycorp’s Mt Pass pure rare earth operations, providing increased stability in variable markets
==> picture [12 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
Production of zirconium chemicals not related to zircon or the mineral sands industry. New high purity zirconium product can generate increased revenue
==> picture [12 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
Potential to be the world’s largest hafnium producer and supply long term stable production and pricing into the expanding aerospace and industrial gas turbine industries, not related to the production of reactor grade zirconium metal
==> picture [12 x 13] intentionally omitted <==
Current estimated operating cost structure very competitive @ US$7 - $8/kg of product produced, which places the project in the lowest quartile producer

Forecast International: gas turbine power generation market has entered a period of sustained growth:
Both passenger and military aircraft growth at plus 100% over the next five years
- 18,800 gas turbine engines for power generation in the 2014-2028 period. The value of this production is US$341.7 billion.
Addition of 1%-2% Hf to NiCo alloys raises operating temperature from 1,400[o] C to 2,000[o] C providing fuel efficiencies and emission minimisation.
