Pilbara Cu-Zn

Feasibility Study

  • Simple Mining Operation

  • Underground mine, expanded open pits at Whim Creek/Mons Cupri

  • Processing Hub at Sulphur Springs

  • 1.0 Mtpa, conventional flotation, Copper and Zinc concentrates

Surface Infrastructure Layout

LOM Payable Production

  • 136,000t Cu, 246,000t Zn, 1.7Mozs Ag

  • Mine Life – 8.5 years+

  • Other deposits provide conceptual 11+ year project life before exploration success

  • Enhancement Program underway

Sulphur Springs Underground Mine Design

Pilbara Cu-Zn

Enhancement Program

Several Key Objectives

  • Increased scale – focussed exploration to increase Project scale

  • Expand existing Salt Creek, Evelyn and Kangaroo Caves resources

  • Regional green fields focus

  • Production Optimisation - optimisation of the mine(s) development sequence to maximise Project value.

  • CAPEX Refinement – reduce capital intensity

  • modular construction

  • power generation options

==> picture [387 x 46] intentionally omitted <==

  • Infrastructure sharing, joint Haul Road under construction

  • Permitting – securing development approvals.

Exploration

Increased Exploration Focus

Significant Exploration Upside

Brownfields

==> picture [357 x 245] intentionally omitted <==

  • Resource Expansion

  • First 4,700 metre RC drilling program at Kangaroo Caves completed, high grade zinc-copper results

Greenfields exploration

  • New targets identified
