Dear Shareholder

Partially underwritten non-renounceable entitlement offer to raise approximately $2.48 million

On 25 October 2013, Chinalco Yunnan Copper Resources Ltd (ASX:CYU) ( Company ) announced a pro-rata, non-renounceable rights issue to eligible shareholders, on the basis of 1 new fully paid ordinary share ( New Shares ) for every 4 shares held, at an issue price of $0.04 per New Share, to raise approximately $2.48 million before costs ( Offer ). The Offer will be available to all eligible shareholders who hold shares as at 7:00pm (AEDT) on the record date of 4 November 2013. Following quotation, the New Shares will rank equally in all respects from the date of allotment with existing quoted shares on issue.

The Offer is underwritten up to approximately $1.06 million, representing 42.8% of the total Offer, by China Yunnan Copper (Australia) Investment and Development Co. Ltd, the Company’s largest shareholder. The underwriting means that the receipt of almost 50% of the funds sought under the Offer can be guaranteed and the Company will be able to implement its planned activities. A nominal $1 fee is being charged in relation to the underwriting provided.

The Offer is being undertaken pursuant to a prospectus issued under section 713 of the Corporations Act ( Prospectus ), which was lodged with ASIC and ASX on 25 October 2013. Full details of the Offer are set out in the Prospectus. It is available on the ASX website and also on the Company’s website, www.cycal.com.au. The Prospectus, along with an Entitlement and Acceptance Form, will be dispatched to eligible shareholders on 11 November 2013. Potential investors should consider the Prospectus in full in deciding whether to acquire the securities offered. Anyone who wants to acquire the securities offered will need to follow the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will accompany the Prospectus.

The Company has determined that only those shareholders with registered addresses in Australia or New Zealand will be eligible to participate in the Offer.

The funds raised under the Offer (after payment of costs) will be used to continue to develop the Company’s business and meet its strategic goals as identified in Section 1.5 of the Prospectus. More particularly, funds raised under the Offer have been earmarked for exploration activities mostly in Australia where CYU’s current Mt Isa projects are held, and working capital purposes.

A proposed timetable for the Offer is set out below:

Any extension of the Closing Date will have a consequential effect on the issue date of New Shares.

Further information

The Company anticipates that up to 61,998,545 New Shares will be issued under the Offer. The New Shares will be issued for $0.04 each. Upon completion of the Offer, the issued capital of the Company will comprise approximately 309,992,728 shares.

Entitlements to New Shares pursuant to the Offer are non-renounceable and accordingly will not be traded on the ASX.

Fractional entitlements under the Offer will be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

Trading in the New Shares on the ASX is expected to commence on or about 4 December 2013. An Appendix 3B applying for quotation of the New Shares has been lodged with ASX. The Company encourages all eligible shareholders to participate in the Offer.
