GOLD PRODUCTION (OUNCES)
----- End of picture text -----
Midpoint of cumulative 2017-2019 production guidance/target range is based on 98% Probable Ore Reserves and 2% Inferred Mineral Resources (IMR). No Exploration Targets included.
Cautionary statement: there is a low level of geological confidence associated with IMR and there is no certainty that further exploration work will result in the determination of Indicated Mineral Resources or that the production target itself will be realised.

445,000 ounce (22%) increase in Ore Reserves in FY2016 net of depletion:
-
Maiden Ore Reserves of 226,000 ounces at Gloster and 136,000 ounces at Baneygo;
-
Addition of 81,000 ounces at Rosemont through extensional drilling and improved optimisations; and
-
Addition of 27,000 ounces at Moolart Well through infill drilling.

DUKETON KEEPS GIVING
-
Huge exploration effort in FY16:
-
155,000 metres drilled
-
20 projects
-
≈$15m spend
-
Delivering big rewards:
-
+1.4Moz resources added/upgraded
- Gloster, Baneygo & TW
-
+400Koz reserves added
- Gloster, Baneygo & Ops
-
Large tenure position
-
Proximity to 10mtpa mill capacity
-
Known gold hosting structures
-
Shallow & poorly tested
-
Strong extensions expected to continue

| (Mt) | (g/t) | (koz) | |
| Tooheys Well Inferred Mineral Resource | |||
| at 0.4g/t lower cut | 14.6 | 1.16 | 547 |
-
Resource above 1.0g/t cut-off is 6.7Mt at 1.77g/t for 379,000 ounces – 70% of quoted resource Indicative of the regular, wide intercepts of high grade mineralisation
-
Only 2.5km south of 5mtpa Garden Well processing plant and on a granted mining lease
-
Clearly a compelling substantial, high grade mill feed satellite project opportunity for GW
-
Infill drilling underway to update resource and form basis of Reserve estimation later in 2016
-
Tooheys Well shear zone extends 2kms north and 1km south and is poorly explored
-
Prospective geology currently being drilled to north and south
-
Broader Garden Well shear zone extends 30km north of GW and 10km south
-
Application of exploration methodology to broader package where the bulk of historic drilling is ineffective (<50m hole depths)
-
Less than $6 per resource ounce discovery cost
-
Cheapest growth option is in our own back yard
Tooheys Well maiden resource is confirmation of the value creation proposition presented by Regis’ targeted and aggressive organic growth strategy at Duketon

| Stripping ratio (w:o) | 4.89 | 5.10 | Above upper end of FY16 guidance of 275-305koz |
| Ore mined (Mtonnes) | 10.79 | 11.07 | COSTS FY16 cash costs $773/oz & AISC $927/oz |
| Ore milled (Mtonnes) | 10.25 | 9.84 | Both 6% lower than FY15 - cost efficiencies continue |
| Head grade (g/t) | 1.03 | 1.11 | Below lower end of FY16 guidance |

OPERATIONS OUTLOOK
FY2017 GUIDANCE
-
Gold production 300,000 – 330,000 ounces
-
Cash costs $840 – $910 per ounce
-
AISC $980 – $1,050 per ounce
-
Growth Capex: $27m
Major components of growth capital:
-
Gloster pre-production capital $7m
-
Erlistoun pre-production capital $2m
-
• Erlistoun pre-production mining $7m
-
Rosemont expansion mine cutback $7m

-
FY17 production guidance higher than FY16 range of 275-305koz and FY2016 actual of 305koz
-
Impact of positive grade impact of new operations
-
Optimisation to steady state of current operations
-
FY17 AISC guidance consistent with FY16 range of A$970-A$1,070
-
Guidance range slightly higher than FY16 actual A$927/oz due to early waste stripping requirements of start up operations Gloster and Erlistoun.
