4. Outlook
Growth strategy to generate shareholder value
1. Deliver forecast cash flow from Fossey Mine
-
Complete drill out and feasibility study on Fossey East.
-
Ongoing project/systems/risk review.
2. Increase mine life to underpin long-term cash flow
-
Resources to reserves (Fossey East/Hellyer/Que River).
-
extensional exploration drilling around known resources.
3. Assess & potentially develop 1.5M oz gold(eq) resource
-
Gold DFS in progress.
-
Seek technical and or financial partners for development.
4. Review external project and corporate opportunities

Notes on Metal Prices and Gold Equivalence
-
Metal prices effecting the gold equivalent calculation are : Gold A$1,430/oz and silver A$35.6/ozs. This generates a Au:Ag ration of 1:40.1. This has been conservatively modified to 1:45 to complete the equivalence calculation based only on contained silver and gold in the respective resources in Table 4 and 5.
-
The g rades for the calculation of a Au e q uivalent g rade are from the res p ective combined resource estimates p resented in Tables 4 and 5.
-
• No recoveries or other modifying factors have been applied in the calculation. Au is the chosen metal for reporting equivalence as it is potentially the more valuable.
