Matsa is very pleased to report that Panoramic Resources (ASX:PAN) has released results from its recently completed Mt Henry Gold Project Feasibility Study (MHFS). Since acquiring a 70% interest in the Project from Matsa in July 2012, Panoramic has completed and released a positive Scoping Study (December 2012), undertaken a significant resource infill drilling campaign in 2013, which increased the confidence in the resources and, over the last two years, determined and evaluated a development path to maximise the economics of the Project via the delivery of the MHFS.

Matsa Executive Chairman Mr Paul Poli said “Firstly, let me thank Panoramic and their entire team led by Mr Peter Harold for delivering on every aspect of their agreement with Matsa. They are an exceptionally talented group of people. We sincerely hold them in high regard and recommend Panoramic to any future joint venture partners as a quality group of people to do business with. “

Mr Poli added “Their meticulous work in the MHFS confirms without doubt the value that the Mt Henry Project holds and the value that the project will bring to Matsa. This project provides another example of Matsa’s deliberate strategy of holding a pipeline of high quality projects which will underpin Matsa’s growth in shareholder value for the future. The task of monetising this asset into substantial cold hard cash is now underway.”

PAN announcement which includes all information as required under JORC 2012 is included as an attachment to this

release.

Mount Henry Feasibility Study Outcomes

The MHFS on a 100% Project basis, is based on a mining inventory of 21.1Mt @1.41g/t (contained gold 961,000oz.) assuming ore is sourced from three open pit Resources, Mt Henry, Selene and North Scotia. 95.6% of the Mining Inventory is based on the Probable Ore Reserve estimate of 20.2Mt @ 1.42g/t Au (contained gold 922,900oz) . Mining is to be undertaken by conventional open pit mining methods. Ore would be processed on site through a centrally located 3Mtpa conventional Carbon in Leach (“CIL”) process plant at an average gold recovery of 90%. Processing uses a three stage crushing circuit, followed by two stage ball milling to achieve a target grind size of P80 38µm. Key Feasibility Study outcomes are given in Table 1.

Key Risks

A number of key risks were identified by PAN that may impact (either positively or negatively) on the economics of the Mt Henry Project. These risks include, but are not limited to:

  • US$ Gold price and A$:US$ FX rate

  • Capital and operating costs

  • Processing optimisation and recoveries

  • Project financing

  • Regulatory approvals

Next Steps

Matsa is pleased and encouraged that the MHFS Base Case demonstrates a robust project. As announced PAN have already received indicative terms sheets from two Australian banks for debt financing of the project, which indicate that a significant portion of the project’s construction cost could be debt funded.

Whilst the Joint Venture parties could proceed to financing and development of Mt Henry it is the view of both parties that shareholders are best served by exploring alternative avenues to realise value. To this end, the Joint Venture parties are preparing to commence a dual IPO/trade sale process to realise value.

Details

Panoramic Resources Limited (“Panoramic”) is pleased to report the results of the recently completed Mt Henry Gold Project Feasibility Study (“MHFS”). Since acquiring a 70% interest in the Project from Matsa Resources Limited (“Matsa”) in July 2012, Panoramic has:

  • completed and released a positive Scoping Study ( refer to ASX announcement of 18 December 2012 );

  • undertaken a significant Resource infill drilling campaign in 2013, which increased the confidence in the Resources; and

  • over the last two years, determined and evaluated a development path to maximise the economics of the Project via the delivery of the MHFS.

The MHFS is based on a Mining Inventory of 21.1Mt @1.41g/t Au containing 961,000oz Au, with ore sourced from three open pit Resources, Mt Henry, Selene and North Scotia. Approximately 96% of the Mining Inventory is based on the Probable Ore Reserve estimate of 20.2Mt @1.42g/t Au containing 922,900oz Au, with mining to be undertaken by conventional open pit mining methods. Ore will be processed on site through a centrally located 3Mtpa conventional Carbon in Leach (“CIL”) process plant achieving an average gold recovery of 90%. Ore processing will use a three stage crushing circuit, followed by two stage ball milling to achieve a target grind size of P80 38µm. Key Feasibility Study outcomes of the Mt Henry Gold Project (“MHGP”) are detailed in Table 1.

Key Assumptions of the MHFS

Financial

  • Base Case gold price of A$1,500/oz (US$1,200/oz and A$:$US0.80).

  • No annual escalation applied to revenue or costs.

  • Net Present Value estimation is on a post-tax basis using a post-tax real discount rate of 8%.

  • Construction time of 16 months, first gold production in Month 17.

Costs

  • Pre-production capital cost of A$161M, including the construction of the Process Plant and associated infrastructure (i.e. access roads, offices, workshop, water supply, accommodation village, tailings storage facility) and pre-production mining costs (i.e. contractor mobilisation and establishment, clearing and top soil conservation, pre-strip).

  • Mine operating cost estimates were supplied by a large, well established WA mining contractor, experienced in this type of open pit mining. Excavating, loading, haul, drill and blasting makes up ~93% of the total mining cost base. Mining costs average A$3.10/tonne of material moved over the life of the Project. The diesel price has been estimated at A$1.00/litre (after the diesel fuel rebate).

  • Processing and administration costs are built up from first principles (labour, reagents and grinding media usage, power cost and consumption, maintenance costs), and average A$25.68/tonne of ore treated .

  • The MHGP will access gas from the Kambalda to Esperance Gas Pipeline (“KEGP”). A take-off valve is located 2.5km from the main processing plant area. It is assumed that power would be supplied by a contract provider under a build own operate transfer (“BOOT”) arrangement. The unit cost of power is estimated to be 15.3 cents/kWhr.

Physicals

  • Ore is hauled to the process plant ROM pad on a continuous basis using two truck fleets operating in both the Selene and Mt Henry open pits. The feed to the process plant is blended in accordance with the delivery schedule of ore from each open pit. Ore is blended to optimise mill performance and throughput.

  • A conventional CIL process plant with 3Mtpa capacity at 94% availability.

  • Metallurgical testwork on the three MHGP Resources resulted in a range of gold recoveries from 90-93%. An average gold recovery of 90% has been used in the MHFS.

  • The Mining Inventory of 21.1Mt was derived using a combination of Whittle 4X analysis and open pit design. Approximately 96% of the mining inventory is sourced from material in the Indicated Resource category. The Mining Inventory includes a small portion of material currently classified in the Inferred Resource category. In the mining schedule, this material only represents ~4% of ore delivered to the processing plant. The mining schedule assumes that ongoing Resource and grade control drilling will increase the confidence on the Inferred material prior to mining. As required by Listing Rule 5.16, it is noted that 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 will be realised.

  • While there is currently no infrastructure at the site, the Project is only 20km from Norseman and ~190km from Kalgoorlie. This region has significant resources of skilled labour, infrastructure and mining services.

  • A paleo-channel borefield has been identified immediately west of the proposed process plant. It is of sufficient size and quality to satisfy the water requirements of the process plant over the estimated life of the Project. A potable water supply is available in the town of Norseman.

Other Relevant Information

Location and Tenure

The MHGP is located 700km east of Perth and 20km south of Norseman in Western Australia ( Figure 2 ). The Project area straddles the sealed Goldfields to Esperance Highway, linking the Goldfields town of Kalgoorlie to the port town of Esperance on the south coast of Western Australia. The Project is located entirely on vacant crown land, within the Shire of Dundas. The MHGP Resources are located immediately to the west of the northern arm of Lake Dundas. Lake Dundas is a large salt lake typical of the WA Eastern Goldfields region.

Figure 2 – MHGP Location

==> picture [492 x 506] intentionally omitted <==

The entire MHGP, including exploration areas, covers an area of approximately 53 km². The MHGP open pits are on granted Mining Leases, M63/515 and M63/516. The land designated for the process plant and some other infrastructure is subject to the granting of a General Purpose Lease and Miscellaneous Licences. A tenement swap with a local mining company is in progress in order to increase the area for the placement of waste west of Mt Henry open pit. Once this transaction has been completed, the area will also be the subject of a General Purpose Lease Application.

Figure 3 – MHGP Tenements

==> picture [436 x 625] intentionally omitted <==

Page 5 of 40

==> picture [595 x 107] intentionally omitted <==

The MHGP falls within an area in respect of which the Federal Court has made a formal Determination of native title held by the Ngadju People. A Mining Agreement between Matsa, the Ngadju People and Goldfields Land and Sea Council Aboriginal Corporation was signed in June 2010 and covers the MHGP Mining Leases.

Geology and Mineralisation

The MHGP is located at the southern end of the Wiluna-Norseman Greenstone belt of the WA Eastern Goldfields. Whilst the greenstone rocks from the Norseman region can be broadly correlated with those of the Kalgoorlie-Kambalda region, they form a distinct lithology which is bounded on all sides by major regional shears.

The Mt Henry lode is an elongated ore body that is 1.9km long, 6-10 metres wide and dips 65-75 degrees towards the west ( Figure 4 ). The host rock is predominantly a banded iron formation (“BIF”) with minor meta-basalts and dolerites. Sulphide minerals range from trace to 10%. The predominant sulphide is pyrrhotite with minor pyrite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite and marcasite.

The host rock of the Selene Resource is also a BIF which is intruded by numerous dolerite sills. The footwall contact is characterised by metamorphic sedimentary schist and the hanging wall by the overlying dolerites of the Woolyeener Formation. The Selene deposit extends for 1.3km along strike and extends 550 metres down-dip at a shallow angle of around 20 degrees. The lode thickens in the central part of the deposit up to a true thickness of 35 to 40 metres ( Figure 5 ).

The North Scotia Resource covers a strike length of 600 metres within Achaean mafic rocks of the Woolyeenyer Formation. The Woolyeenyer Formation is host to the auriferous quartz veins that have been mined in the Norseman district for 80 years. Gold mineralisation is hosted by laminated quartz veins that dip at around 70[0] towards the west. Sulphides present include pyrite and galena ( Figure 6) .

Resources

The MHGP Mineral Resources have previously been reported in compliance with the 2012 JORC Code ( refer to ASX announcement of 30 September 2014 ). On a 100% project basis, the MHGP Mineral Resources total 43.2Mt @ 1.19g/t Au for 1.66Moz contained gold, at a 0.40g/t Au cut-off grade ( Table 3 ). Table 4 details the Mt Henry and Selene Resources reported at a cut-off grade of 0.6g/t and 1.0g/t respectively. The Mt Henry, Selene and North Scotia Resources remain open at depth.

Mining and Reserves

The mine designs and mining schedules in the MHFS are based on 2012 JORC compliant Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources for the Mt Henry, Selene and North Scotia ore bodies ( refer Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 ). The Mt Henry and Selene modelling optimisations were based on Resources reported at a 0.6g/t Au cut-off grade. Mining is based on production from the three open pits, using contract mining. The pit designs will be staged to optimise the delivery of ore to the process plant run-of-mine ore pad.

A Probable Reserve of 922,900oz of contained gold is reported for the project in Table 5, on a 100% project basis. Further relevant disclosures are detailed in Appendix 1 and Appendix 3. It is noted that Panoramic‟s equity share of the Ore Reserves is 70%.

The average life of mine stripping ratio across all the open pits is 4.2 to 1 (waste to ore ratio). Conceptual pit shells were optimised at a gold price of A$1,470/oz (Mt Henry and Selene) and A$1,400/oz (North Scotia) using the Whittle software. A breakdown of the open pit Mining Inventory is shown in Table 6. Figures 7, 8 and 9 illustrate the design and waste dump layouts for the three open pits.

Waste Management

The footwall of both the Mt Henry and Selene deposits is non-mineralised BIF, which is classified as potentially acid forming (“PAF”). The North Scotia deposit has no PAF material. The mining schedules are designed to ensure that all PAF waste is progressively encapsulated as it is mined. Figure 7 shows the Mt Henry open pit and waste dumps and Figure 8 shows the Selene open pit, waste dumps and the process plant tailings dam as an integrated waste landform combining encapsulation of the PAF waste with thickened tailings surrounded by NAF waste rock. Figure 9 shows the North Scotia open pit.

Processing

An extensive metallurgical testwork program based on a range of core samples obtained from the 2013 drilling program was undertaken for the MHFS. Previous work by GR Engineering Services Ltd (“GR”) and others had indicated that the BIF ore was very competent. MHGP test work indicated ore would have Bond Ball Mill Work Indices in the range of 13.7-19.4kWhr/t and unconfined compressive strength (“UCS”) measurements in the range of 112-412Mpa for both Mt Henry and Selene ore. Recovery is related to grind size with recovery improving as grind size is reduced.

CPC Engineering and Project Design (“CPC”) estimated the capital and operating costs for a conventional 3Mtpa whole ore grind CIL flowsheet consisting of:

  • Three stage crushing of coarse run of mine ore to P80 10mm.

  • Grinding circuit consisting of two large ball mills in series (each with installed power of 6300kW) with target primary grind size of P80 38µm.

  • Dual Knelson gravity gold concentrators to ensure the maximum amount of gravity gold is recovered prior to the leaching circuit.

  • Leaching and adsorption tanks providing pre-oxidation and a leaching time of 48 hours to maximise recovery.

  • Thickening via a high rate above ground thickener to ensure maximum process water recovery ahead of the tailings storage facility (“TSF”) and hence minimise additional reagents required for make-up raw water from the borefield

  • Tailings disposal to TSF.

  • Gold recovery to dore via Zadra style stripping circuit combined with atmospheric electrowinning.

  • Reagent mixing.

Extractive testwork results confirmed that at a 38µm grind, recoveries would be in the range of 90-93%. An average recovery of 90% has been used in the MHFS.

Capital Costs

Pre-development capital is estimated at A$161M out of a total capital cost of A$187M. Sustaining and closure capital costs over the mine life are estimated at A$26M. Infrastructure includes roads, fuel farm, administration buildings, water storage, laboratory, workshop, borefield, accommodation village and mobile equipment. A summary of the MHFS capital cost estimates are shown in Table 7.

Panoramic believes that, due to the current market conditions within the WA resources sector, significant capital cost reductions may be possible, especially under competitive tender. No contingency has been applied to the capital costs, however the estimates are viewed as conservative.

Operating Costs

Open pit mining costs were based on estimates provided by a large established WA based mining contractor, after reviewing the proposed production schedules and rock property information (specific gravity, hardness and abrasion). Mining is based on conventional drill and blast on 5m and 10m benches with a combination of 200t and 100t excavators loading 100t capacity dump trucks. Ore is directly trucked to the ROM pad. Under a competitive bid situation, Panoramic would expect final mining rates to be lower.

==> picture [595 x 107] intentionally omitted <==

Process plant operating costs (reagents, grinding media, labour and power) were estimated by CPC. The Project is adjacent to the Kambalda to Esperance Gas Pipeline and discussions with the pipeline operator and investigation of the WA gas market indicate that sufficient gas will be available to generate power for the site. Processing costs are impacted by the work indices (hardness) of the ore and the quality of the bore field water for processing. A summary of the MHFS operating cost estimates is shown in Table 8.

(A$M)
Item A$/t ore
Total Mining (Contractor, MHGM salaries and Grade Control) 343 16
Processing 510 24
General and Administrative 33 2
Total 886 42

The MHFS achieves a C1 operating cost of A$1,024/oz Au and an “all in sustaining cost” (“AISC”) of A$1,106/oz Au. Both measures are similar as all waste mined once processing commences is treated as an operating expense and minimal sustaining capital is required.

Panoramic believes that, due to the current market conditions within the WA resources sector, significant operating cost reductions may be possible. No contingency has been applied to the operating costs, however the estimates are conservative.

Environmental Studies and Permitting

A broad range of baseline studies has been undertaken to ensure that any potential impacts of the MHGP on the environment are minimised and can be effectively managed through good planning. Studies undertaken include (but are not limited to) flora and vegetation mapping, fauna (terrestrial, invertebrate and aquatic), waste characterisation of waste rock and tailings, groundwater studies (hydrogeology setting of the open pits, pit lake formation), design of a TSF and assessment of impacts of developing a groundwater supply. Additional studies included European and Aboriginal Heritage. Based on these studies, no material environmental issues have been identified.

A range of stakeholder consultation has been undertaken including the Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP), Department of Environmental Regulation (DER), Department of Water (DoW) and the Shire of Dundas. The objective of site planning and scheduling is to ensure that all landforms are stable and non-polluting in the long term and that the risks of acid rock drainage are minimised.

A Mining Proposal is being prepared for submission to the DMP. Following a decision to mine, additional approvals will be required including, but not limited to, Works Approval from the DER, a license to take water and a licence to construct water bores.

Key Risks Cautionary Statements

A number of key risks have been identified that may impact (either positively or negatively) on the economics of the MHGP. These risks include, but are not limited to:

  • US$ Gold price and A$:US$ FX rate.

  • Capital and operating costs.

  • Processing optimisation and recoveries.

  • Project financing.

  • Regulatory approvals.

Next Steps

Panoramic is pleased and that the MHFS Base Case demonstrates a robust Project. The Company has already received indicative terms sheets from two Australian banks for debt financing of the project. These indicative term sheets indicate that a significant portion of the Project‟s development cost could be debt funded.

While the Joint Venture could proceed to financing and development of Mt Henry, the Company is exploring alternatives to maximise value for shareholders which could involve an IPO or trade sale and is making preparations in this regard.

MHGP Resource and Reserve Material Information Summary

In accordance with the ASX Listing Rules, a fair and balanced representation of the information provided in Appendix 1 must also be presented in the body of the ASX announcement. That representation follows. This information applies only to the MHGP where a material change has occurred with the release of the maiden MHGP Ore Reserve. For completeness, a summary of each of the supporting Resource and Reserve disclosures is included in Appendix 2 and Appendix 3.

Sampling and Assaying

The deposits have been extensively sampled using Reverse Circulation (RC) and Diamond drilling (DD) techniques, and the drill grid spacing over the extent of the mineralisation is approximately 25m x 25m for Mt Henry, 40m x 40m for Selene and 20m x 20m for North Scotia. RC holes were sampled by collecting 1m samples and splitting then down using either on-board rig or manual riffle splitters to produce an assay sample of ~3kg size. Diamond holes are typically NQ2 (NQ for some historical holes) & occasionally HQ size and were sampled by cutting the core in half or quarter for the HQ core over geologically logged intervals between 20cm and 1m in length. Samples assayed by Panoramic have utilised the Fire Assay technique.

Geology and Geological Interpretation

There is a strong geological control to the mineralisation and interpretation at Mt Henry and Selene. The deposits are essentially strata hosted within a sheared Banded Iron Formation (BIF). The shear is essentially contiguous along the upper contact of the BIF and an overlying mafic unit. There is some interpreted supergene mineralisation in the northern extents of the deposit that is controlled by weathering horizons and typically cross cuts stratigraphy at shallow levels. The geological and grade continuity is strata controlled, there are series of late pegmatites that cross cut mineralisation and lithology. These pegmatites are generally unmineralised and have been modelled into the resource with a background grade of 0.1g/t Au.

Database

Logging was completed in logging code protected MS Excel templates and loaded into Panoramic‟s SQL Server database for validation and storage. Geological and assay information was printed on hard copy plans and visually validated against original logs and assay results to ensure the digital copy agrees with the original format. Data validation was completed internally in SQL Server by setting allowable and expected values. For Resource estimation a subset of the SQL Server database , restricting the data to the Mt Henry Resource area was exported into an MS Access database.

Estimation methodology

Grade estimation was completed using Ordinary Kriging (OK) in Surpac[TM] software. Variogram analysis and modelling was completed using Supervisor software. Two metre composites were generated from the drill hole database and then tagged according to mineralised wireframes generated at a 0.4g/t Au lower grade. The wireframe modelling conditions included a minimum downhole mineralisation width of 2m; internal dilution of up to 3m could be included if the entire intercept graded above 0.4 g/t Au. If dilution was greater than 3m then separate lodes were generated if geological/grade continuity was supported by nearby holes. Variogram models generated confirmed geological stratigraphy as the key controlling factor on mineralisation.

Cut-off Grade

The mineralisation wireframes for Resources were modelled on a gold lower grade cut-off of 0.4g/t Au. This value was determined by visual assessment of grade continuity in Surpac[TM] . Models were also generated at 0.6 g/t and 1.0g/t Au cut-off grades for comparison. Cut-off grades applied to the Ore Reserves reflect the marginal breakeven cost of ore production based on the planned throughput rate and processing cost and recovery parameters determined by the Feasibility Study. A value of 0.7g/t was used for Mt Henry and Selene. A value of 0.4g/t was used for North Scotia.

Mining Assumptions

The deposits all outcrop and will be mined as open pits. Open pits have been optimised using Whittle 4X software and all inputs were based on detailed studies. Excavation is by conventional dump truck and hydraulic excavator. Bench heights will vary from 5 to 10m. Overall pit slopes vary from 45 -55 degrees. Most of the pit wall exposures are in fresh, competent rock. At Selene and Mt Henry, mining dilution of 5% at a diluent grade of 0.5g/t has been included. No mining loss has been assumed. At North Scotia, 10% dilution at zero grade has been applied with no ore loss. Inferred Mineral Resource was included in pit optimisation and is reported in the Mining Inventory (4.4% of total) but is excluded from the Ore Reserve estimate.

Page 14 of 40

==> picture [595 x 107] intentionally omitted <==

Metallurgical Assumptions

A standard Carbon in Leach (“CIL”) flowsheet for gold extraction is proposed to treat the ores of the Project. The flowsheet is designed to treated 3Mtpa and will consist of three stage crushing followed by whole ore grind to a target size of p80=38 µm. The process is well tested and extensively used throughout the industry. Metallurgical testwork was completed on representative samples from the three deposits. Samples were from a range of locations across the deposits. Metallurgical testwork consisted of determining a range of standard comminution factors such as UCS, abrasion index, Bond Rod and Ball Mill Work Indexes. Recovery (gravity plus leaching) varies slightly across the three deposits ranging from 90-93%. An average recovery of 90% has been used as the majority of the ore to be treated is primary in nature.

Revenue factors

Head grade is determined by the mining sequence and reflects the spatial variation within and between the three deposits. Costs are based on current quotations, designs and proposals and have been assumed to be constant for the life of mine (LOM). A gold price of A$1,500/oz has been used to report Reserves and economic outcomes of the MHFS. The price has been derived by reviewing a range of bank and broker forecasts for the US$ gold price and A$:US$ exchange rate.

Classification

The MHGP Probable Ore Reserve is based entirely on the MHGP Indicated Mineral Resource lying within the pit designs with appropriate modifying factors applied.

About the Company

Panoramic Resources Limited (ASX code: PAN) is a Western Australian mining company formed in 2001 for the purpose of developing the Savannah Nickel Project in the East Kimberley. Panoramic successfully commissioned the $65 million Savannah Project in late 2004 and then in 2005 purchased and restarted the Lanfranchi Nickel Project, near Kambalda. In FY2014, the Company produced a record 22,256t contained nickel and is forecasting to produce approximately 19,500t contained nickel in FY2015.

Following the successful development of the nickel projects, the Company diversified its resource base to include gold and platinum group metals (PGM). The Gold Division consists of the Gidgee Project located near Wiluna and the Mt Henry Project (70% interest), near Norseman. Both projects are currently under feasibility study. The PGM Division consists of the Panton Project, located 60km south of the Savannah Project and the Thunder Bay North Project in Northern Ontario, Canada.

Panoramic has been a consistent dividend payer and has paid out a total of $111 million in fully franked dividends since 2008. At 31 March 2015, Panoramic had $61 million in cash, no bank debt and employed approximately 400 people.

The Company‟s vision is to broaden its exploration and production base, with the aim of becoming a major, diversified mining company in the S&P/ASX 100 Index. The growth path will include developing existing resources, discovering new ore bodies, acquiring additional projects and is being led by an experienced exploration-to-production team with a proven track record.

Description of how the geological interpretation was used
The geology of the deposit is similar in many respects to
to control the resource estimates. the nearby Selene Deposit. Mineralisation is confined to
a series of shears within the silicate facies, Banded Iron
Formation (Noganyer Formation). The footwall to the BIF
is a metamorphic sedimentary schist unit and the
hanging wall is defined by mafic flows and dykes of the
Woolyeener Formation. The vast majority of the
mineralisation is confined to a single shear running
contiguously along the upper contact of the BIF
Noganyer Formation and the overlying Woolyeener
Formation. The mineralisation interpretation is consistent
with the shape and continuity of this BIF unit contact
zone.

Site visits

Comment on any site visits undertaken by the
Competent Person and the outcome of those visits.

If no site visits have been undertaken indicate why this
is the case.

The Mt Henry project is a greenfields site. Mr Williams has
visited the site on six occasions to inspect topography,
determine site layout, inspect drill core, consider environmental
impacts of the project being developed, consultation with local
stakeholders.
Study status

The type and level of study undertaken to enable
Mineral Resources to be converted to Ore Reserves.

The Code requires that a study to at least Pre-
Feasibility Study level has been undertaken to convert
Mineral Resources to Ore Reserves. Such studies will
have been carried out and will have determined a mine
plan that is technically achievable and economically
viable, and that material Modifying Factors have been
considered.

A feasibility level study has been completed on the three
deposits demonstrating that the project is technically viable.

The level of studies has considered detailed designs and
schedules, estimation of capital and operating costs based on
quotes and schedules of service supply.

Modifying factors (described below) have been applied.

Discounted cash flow analysis has been used to demonstrate
that the project is financially viable at an assumed gold price of
A$1,500/oz
Cut-off
parameters

The basis of the cut-off grade(s) or quality parameters
applied.

Cut-off grades applied to the Ore Reserves reflect the marginal
breakeven cost of ore production based on the planned
throughput rate and processing cost and recovery parameters
determined by the Feasibility Study. A value of 0.7g/t was used
for Mt Henryand Selene and 0.6g/t for North Scotia.
Mining factors
or
assumptions

The method and assumptions used as reported in the
Pre-Feasibility or Feasibility Study to convert the
Mineral Resource to an Ore Reserve (i.e. either by
application of appropriate factors by optimisation or by
preliminary or detailed design).

The choice, nature and appropriateness of the selected
mining method(s) and other mining parameters
including associated design issues such as pre-strip,
access, etc.

The assumptions made regarding geotechnical
parameters (eg pit slopes, stope sizes, etc), grade
control and pre-production drilling.

The major assumptions made and Mineral Resource
model used for pit and stope optimisation (if
appropriate).

The mining dilution factors used.

The mining recovery factors used.

Any minimum mining widths used.

The manner in which Inferred Mineral Resources are
utilised in mining studies and the sensitivity of the
outcome to their inclusion.

The deposits all outcrop and will be mined as open pits.

Open pits have been optimized using Whittle 4X software. All
cost inputs, metallurgical and mining parameters were based
on detailed studies.

The mining method is conventional and reflects the large
scale, shallow nature of the deposits.

Excavation by conventional dump truck and hydraulic
excavator is planned. Bench heights will vary from 5 to 10m
with mining by 2.5m flitches.

Detailed pit and dump designs were generated with
geotechnical parameters determined by independent
consultants and based on analysis of an extensive local data
set. Overall pit slopes vary from 45 -55 degrees. Ramps are
12-22m wide, berms are mainly 8m wide with some larger 15m
wide berms, batter angles are mostly 75 degrees but have
been flattened to 65 degrees in the upper parts of Mt Henry
east wall. Most of the pit wall exposures are in fresh,
competent rock. An allowance has been made to install rock
catch fences and install mesh drapes over batters if required.

Grade control drilling will be required and has been included as
an operational cost.

Inferred Mineral Resource was included in pit optimization and
is reported in the Mining Inventory (4.4% of total) but is
excluded from the Ore Reserve estimate.
A significant portion of the inferred inventory at Selene is
mined late in the mining schedule and therefore has very little

The Kambalda to Esperance Gas pipeline is located adjacent
to the highway with an existing take-off point on the pipeline
from which it is proposed to build a high pressure pipeline to
supply gas to a power station. The power station will supply all
of the power for the project. Consultation with the pipeline
manager has confirmed that sufficient gas will be available to
meet the needs of the project.
A large paleo-channel has been defined which will be the basis

based on a detailed task breakdown of closure activities with
industry average unit rates. Sustaining costs are a nominal
amount per year. Mining pre-production costs (establishment &
excavation until processing commences) (7%) are based on a
quote from a mining contractor and the associated schedule
developed from the mine plan. Owner‟s costs (5%) are costs
incurred by the company whilst the process plant and
infrastructure is constructed.
