|---|---|---|---|
| Oremined (tonnes) | 655,101 | 622,119 | 621,862 |
| Ore milled (tonnes) | 636,114 | 624,053 | 644,179 |
| Head grade (g/t) | 1.39 | 1.42 | 1.34 |
| Recovery (%) | 92 | 94 | 94 |
| Gold production (ounces) | 26,228 | 26,683 | 26,025 |
| Cashcost perounce (A$/oz)–preroyalties | A$532 | A$519 | A$510 |
| Cashcost perounce (A$/oz)– incl royalties | A$611 | A$585 | A$589 |
Regis completed another strong quarter of operations at the Moolart Well Gold Mine producing 26,228 ounces of gold at a pre-royalty cash cost of production of A$532 per ounce. Gold production for the year to 30 June 2012 was 105,413 ounces at a pre-royalty cash cost of A$512 per ounce.
Mining
During the quarter 291,000 bcm of ore and 1,315,000 bcm of waste were mined from the Moolart Well open pits for a total material movement of 1.60 million bcm; representing a 14% increase in material mined from the March 2012 quarter. The increase in mined volume is a result of better dig rates achieved in blasted waste in the laterite pits.
The ore mined to reserve reconciliation was positive for the quarter by 901 ounces (3.1%). Mining generated 655,101 tonnes of ore at 1.43g/t for 30,042 ounces compared to the reserve of 510,679 tonnes at 1.77g/t for 29,141 ounces. Mining for the quarter returned lower grade due partly to the mining of additional lower grade ore (as defined by grade control) from outside the reserve areas and partly due to mining dilution in the reserve areas mined.

Erection and painting of the CIL tanks and installation of the top of tank steelwork was completed in the March 2012 quarter.
Structural Steel Erection
Approximately 98% of all structural steel and plate work packages have been delivered to site with overall erection 70% complete by the end of the quarter.
Mechanical Installation
Mechanical installation of the ball mill and scrubber was 90% complete by the end of the quarter. Plant wide mechanical installation works were 60% complete by the end of the quarter.
Electrical Installation and Commissioning
All major electrical equipment had been installed in all areas by the end of the quarter. Electrical pre-commissioning of the ball mill and scrubber commenced during the quarter in preparation for ore commissioning. Plant wide electrical and instrumentation installation works were 70% complete by the end of the quarter with the milling and leaching areas fully complete.
Plant Piping
Fabrication and installation of plant piping progressed well during the quarter and was approximately 60% complete by the end of the quarter. Piping is now an area of significant focus in the period leading up to completion of construction and commencement of commissioning.
Tails Storage Facility
Excavation of the TSF keyway was completed in the March 2012 quarter. The construction of the walls of the stage one TSF was completed during the quarter with 650,000 BCM of material placed to take the walls to the required 505mRL level.

Preproduction Mining
Mining in the June 2012 quarter was conducted in the Stage 1 Garden Well open pit down to the 460 mRL from both free dig and blasted cap rock material. A total of 3.0 million BCM of material (predominantly waste) was mined during the quarter. The waste material mined during the quarter was used for construction of the ROM, the western waste dump and the TSF. By the end of the quarter a total of 6.1 million BCM of material had been mined from the stage 1 pit. A small amount (76,000 tonnes) of ore was mined in the June 2012 quarter and carted to the ROM. Significant areas of oxide ore had been exposed in the pit by the end of the quarter to provide ore supply for commencement of milling operations in August 2012.
Development Timetable and Expenditure
Development of the project is on target for commissioning of the processing plant early in August 2012 and commencement of commercial gold production shortly after.
Expenditure committed on project development to the end of the quarter was approximately $138.3 million, being $101.1 million on plant construction and $37.2 million on pre-production mining. The total amount spent to the end of the quarter was $123.8 million, being $91.8 million on plant construction and $32.0 million on pre-production mining.

The down dip extent of this new gold mineralisation has not been fully defined. RC and diamond drilling is planned to test this new mineralisation down to 300 metres below surface. RC drilling will also continue further south of line 6911640mN (southern extremity of current drilling) with a focus on defining the southern extent of gold mineralisation. A further 60 RC holes are planned to fully define the gold mineralised zone down dip and to the south.
This drilling will continue in the September 2012 quarter and is expected to form the basis of updated Resource and Reserve estimations to be completed in the December 2012 quarter.
Rosemont Gold Deposit
The Rosemont gold project is located approximately 9 kilometres north-west of the Garden Well gold project. Rosemont has a Resource of 21.3MT at 1.57 g/t for 1.08 million ounces of gold and a Reserve of 8.7MT at 1.73g/t for 487,000 ounces of gold. The development of the project is currently the subject of a feasibility study due for completion in the September 2012 quarter.
RC drilling commenced at Rosemont in March 2012 to define the extent of gold mineralisation immediately north of the current Rosemont open pit design. The Resource extends approximately 800 metres north of the current open pit design. In this area the Resource is based on shallow RC and Aircore drilling and is entirely in the Inferred category. The drilling programme completed during the quarter consisted of 51 RC holes for 13,634 metres was designed to convert Resources into the Indicated category and to extend the resource envelope.

Petra Gold Deposit
The Petra gold deposit is located 15 kilometres east-southeast of the Moolart Well gold plant and has an Inferred gold resource of 400,000 tonnes at 3.12g/t for 42,000 ounces. Previous Aircore drilling has defined a significant quartz lode containing gold mineralisation over a 600 metre strike length. Previous drilling was conducted on lines 180 to 200 metres apart.
Aircore and RC drilling was completed during the March 2012 quarter. Results were received during the June 2012 quarter for the last 19 Aircore holes of the programme. Significant gold assay results from those holes include:

This drilling will be used to complete an updated resource estimate in the September 2012 quarter. Whilst there is little scope for further increasing the gold resources at depth at Petra, there is potential for further gold mineralisation to the north along strike of the current mineralisation envelope. Further RC drilling will continue along strike to the north of the Petra gold deposit. The potential to extend the mineralisation along strike to the north can now be tested following the recent grant of a prospecting licence which covers a 300 metre northern strike extension to the existing quartz lode.
Regional Gold Exploration
Anchor South Gold Target
During the March 2012 quarter 35 Aircore holes (CPAC020-054) were drilled at Anchor South (4.5 kilometres south of the Anchor pit) to follow up anomalous gold mineralisation identified by drilling in 2011. The target was the main gold shear zone extending south through the Anchor open pit under shallow palaeochannel material. Gold mineralisation trends north-south over a strike distance of 500 metres and has a moderate east dip. Gold grades are strongly influenced by the saprock weathering interface.
Results of the first 19 holes were included in the March 2012 quarterly report. Significant assays results for the last 16 holes in the programme are shown below.

Gum Well Corridor
Numerous gold targets have been identified under shallow palaeochannel cover in the Gum Well to Hootanui corridor over a 20-30 kilometre strike north west of Rosemont. The gold bearing shear zone hosts significant known gold deposits (the largest of which is Rosemont) and to date very limited effective drilling has been undertaken to test the strike extent of the structure.
During the quarter 223 Aircore holes were drilled (RRLSSAC044-266) for 18,700 metres in the Gum Well Corridor area. All drilling was sampled on 4 metre composite intervals and analysed for gold and base metals. Analytical results were received for 4 metre composite samples for holes RRLSSAC019-207, and 1 metre re-samples from holes RRLSSAC017, 054, and 081. Results for RRLSSAC208-266 are pending.
Significant gold results from assays received to date include:

All coordinates are AGD 84. Holes drilled at -60° to 090°
All Intercepts calculated using a 0.5g/t lower cut, no upper cut, maximum 2m internal dilution. All assays determined on 4m composite samples or 1m re-samples by aqua regia assay.
This is very early stage regional drilling with drill traverses on average 1 kilometre apart and holes on each line approximately 160 metres apart. Significant further drilling is required to follow up this early work.
