This Production Target must be read in conjunction with the disclaimers and cautionary statements provided in this presentation. For the avoidance of doubt the Production Target reported includes material classified as Reserve and Inferred Mineral Resources. Material classified as Reserve contributes ~66% of the material within the Production Target and Inferred Resources contribute ~34% of material included within the Production Target. There is a low level of geological confidence associated with Inferred Mineral Resources and there is no certainty that further exploration work will result in the determination of Indicated Mineral Resources or that the Production Target itself will be realised.
