Nova progress

All major long lead items now on site

Nova mine layout

Designed for flexibility and productivity

1.5Mtpa Nova processing plant

Conventional design with best in class components

Improved mine schedule adds value

Updated mining sequence improved project NPV by 26%(1)

Updated production delivers:

FY17 & FY18

Consistent 1.5Mtpa production profile

Accelerated ramp-up to 1.5Mtpa in

High NSR ore brought forward early in the LOM

Results in improved early cash flow and additional project value

Nova concentrates

Highly marketable concentrates

Nickel concentrates

• Nickel concentrate grading 13.5% Ni
• No Arsenic
• High Fe to MgO ratio preferred by smelters

Nickel offtake agreements

• Three year contract
• 50% contracted with BHPB Nickel West, delivered via road to Kambalda
• 50% contracted with Glencore, exported via port of Esperance

Copper concentrates

• Copper concentrate grading 29%

Capital costs reduced

Benefiting from downturn in construction industry

Capital Cost	Unit	Optimisation Study	% Variance to DFS
Initial Capital(1)	\$M	443	6%
Sustaining Capital(2)	\$M	148	3%

Initial capital cost revised down to \$443M

• Resulted from increased competitiveness in cost inputs
• Included \$22M contingency

Additional capital costs through scope changes absorbed:

• Upgrade in size of the concentrate filter and concentrate handling area
• Continued acceleration of underground mining rates
• Additional hydrogeological drilling and dewatering
• Commencement of upgrade to the LOM ventilation capacity

1) The revised Initial Capital Cost was reported on the 27 January 2015.

2) Sustaining capital costs includes closure costs estimated at \$25M

Competitive operating costs(1)

Optimisation Study added 36% more value - reduced risk - future growth

Operating Cost	Unit	Optimisatio n Study	% Variance to DFS
C1 cash costs in concentrate(3)	\$/lb	1.21	27%
costs payable(3) C1 cash	\$/lb	1.65
in concentrate(4) AISC	\$/lb	1.83	21%

1) Refer to Nova Optimisation Study ASX release dated 14 December 2015

2) Shipping costs per tonne of ore assumes 50% of the nickel concentrate treated at BHPB (Nickel West), hence no shipping costs is allocated to this parcel of ore

• 3) C1 cash costs are Life of Mine average cash costs and include all operating costs (excluding royalties) and are presented after by product credits
