Value Enhancement Opportunities

==> picture [721 x 7] intentionally omitted <==

Opportunity to increase the size of the forecast mine capability through further exploration

  • Inferred Resource material within the pit design has not been included in the mining inventory.

  • Infill drilling to test robust continuity of areas currently defined as inferred ounces.

  • Cannon Gold Resource remains open to the west.

Strong potential exists to build the Company’s resource base through exploration at the Cowarna Project, however Southern Gold’s current focus remains firmly on the Bulong Project

Cowarna Gold Project

  • 50km south-east of the Bulong Gold Project

  • Considerable scope for further structural target ng o i f go ld Resources

Discovery to development

==> picture [721 x 7] intentionally omitted <==

Cannon Gold Resource perfectly positioned for success and wider tenement position provides strong future outlook

Cannon Gold Resource

  • Only 30km east of Kalgoorlie

  • Development in 2014: early cashflow opportunity

  • Existing potential to grow the Resource base

Metals X transaction

  • Agreement will fast-track development and reduce project risk

  • Potential to lead to further optimisation of project costs and mine plan

The bigger picture

  • 250km[2] tenement holding, with 30 priority anomalies

  • Follow up work has prioritised 6 Tier 1 targets

  • Knowledge gained from work at the Cannon Gold Resource provides important structural and geochemical information to assess regional targets for similarities

Pre-Feasibility Study Results

The Optimisation announcement dated 13 February 2014 had no material changes to the methodology and assumptions used to determine the production target as detailed in the PFS announcement of 28 August 2013, and all of the key parameters continue to apply. The Optimisation announcement provided an update to the market of the reduction in the forecast operating costs. There have been no material changes to the methodology used to determine the operating costs as outlined in the PFS announcement.
