MOOLART WELL

  • Q3 production run rate 7% lower than mid point of FY2016 guidance range due to lower scheduled grade

  • YTD production run rate in line with mid point of FY2016 guidance range

  • Strip ratio slightly higher than guidance - availability of bigger excavator to advance prestrip at Wellington

  • All in sustaining cost $941/oz in line with guidance – lower production offset by mining contract extension repricing efficiencies

ROSEMONT

  • Higher grade reflects positive reconciliation to reserve grade

  • Strip ratio in line with schedule and forecast, higher than Q2 as waste mining catches up

  • Throughput and recovery in line with guidance

  • As in Q2, Q3 production run rate above top of guidance range and AISC below bottom of guidance range

  • Cutback cost of $5.0m treated as expansionary capex (non AISC) as per FY2016 guidance

Oil price peaked at US$110/b in 2013 – now around US$40/b

Regis base diesel price peaked at A$0.95/litre, trending down since 2014 now around A$0.40/litre

  • Significant impact on operating unit costs

Regis diesel hedge:

  • Diesel is largest individual cost line in operating cost base.

 Hedged volume over 12 month period is approx 2/3 of total annual usage at Duketon operations (mining & milling)

  • 12 & 18 month hedges undertaken at close to the lowest ever base diesel price recorded at Duketon to date

  • Strong medium term risk management and value creation opportunity
