AGM Presentation AGM Presentation CEO Peter Blight

17 October 2011

Focused on tin

  • Rapidly advancing Heemskirk Tin near Zeehan, Tasmania – single commodity - single project focus
  • High grade tin development - established mining region
  • Significant resource upside potential
  • Positive scoping study takes project to pre-feasibility
  • Pre-feasibility drilling underway
  • Environmental scoping completed
  • Project remains on target for production in 2014

Tin prices set to recover

Tin demand rising to 372,000 tonnes in 2011 Indonesia suspends exports from 1st October 2011 LME stocks down to 20kt or 20 days demand Price rebound to US$22,750/tonne

Growth dominated by solder

Tin recycling is becoming more important, particularly in China, and nowrepresents 22% of global demand

Where is tin mined?

Need for 80ktpa of new production

Scoping study greenlight

  • Internal rate of return of 21% & 3.5yr payback advance project to pre-feasibility stage
  • US$12,780/t cash cost positions project competitively on the industry cost curve
  • Life of mine revenue of $673 million net of smelter charges
  • 600,000 tpa throughput over 7.6 years provides economies of scale
  • 3,900 tpa of tin in concentrate production ranks project as 2nd in Australia to Renison Bell

Competitive cost structure

Positive Metallurgy

  • Traditional high-sulphide tin ore processing circuit proposed – comparable with Renison Bell circuit
  • Tin present as cassiterite rather than more difficult to treat stannite
  • Pre-concentration works well
  • Good liberation characteristics down to finer fraction
  • Mineral characterisation shows potential to produce 50% tin concentrate at 70% recovery

Feasibility Program

  • Advanced tin project
  • Positive scoping study outcome adds momentum
  • Highest grade tin project with JORC resource
  • Metallurgical testing on-going with positive outcomes
  • Excellent exploration potential around known deposits
  • Project located near mining infrastructure Well positioned to smelters in SE Asia & China
