  • JORC resource of 269Mt @ 57.3% Fe*
  • Strong working relationship with major JV partner
  • High grade haematite with coarse, friable magnetite
  • Positive Initial Pre-feasibility Study
  • Substantial potential to increase resources

*See Appendix 1 to this presentation for a breakdown of the total mineral resource at this project into JORC categories and per concession, along with the JORC Code competent person statement.

Apurimac Concessions: Opaban 1 & 3: short term target of 300 – 350Mt*

Target mineralisation is based on

  • Undrilled gravity and magnetic anomalies
  • Both deposits open at depth
  • Broad mineralised zones
  • Skarn and hydrothermal mineralisation styles

Substantial exploration up-side

  • 79,000 Ha under concessions
  • 60% Fe in several areas

  • Extensive structural corridor (Opaban)
  • 60Mt potential at Colcabamba in top 100m

  • Cusco resource estimate and exploration
  • Numerous untested ironstones and magnetic targets

Opaban has Excellent Metallurgical Properties

Berau Thermal Coal Project – partner status

  • Dialogue and negotiations over last 12 months regarding restructure of Cooperation Agreement
  • Extensive meetings during second half of 2010
  • Numerous (generous) proposals offered to partner – all rejected
  • Proposal by partner unfair and not acceptable
  • Door remains open for constructive, good faith negotiations but legal options being explored

Looking Back……..

• Peru

  • o AF Partner dispute settled and Peru team re-established
  • o Excellent relations established with major AF partner but more to do
  • o Resource doubled at Opaban, more required
  • o Community engagement achieved despite legacy issues
  • o Drilling delays as community approvals slower than expected
  • o Transport options progressed and widened
  • Berau
    • o Approvals and key contracts progressed..... partner issues remain
  • Corporate
    • o Board restructure undertaken and new MD appointed

Moving Forward

  • Drilling at Colcabamba from December, 2010
  • Cusco resource estimate in December, 2010
  • Revised (realistic) plan and budget being prepared
  • Opaban drilling and PFS timing will driven by community approvals
  • Continue to strengthen partner and community relations
  • Further strengthen Lima management team
  • Continue studies to optimise products, process flowsheet and transport options
  • Expand iron ore resource base
  • Secure agreement with Berau partner and then pursue development options

Formal Business

Appendix 2 – Berau Project JORC Code Information

The Coal Resource at the Berau Coal Project in East Kalimantan is 27.7 million tonnes (Mt). Of the 27.7 Mt JORC Resources, 11 Mt is in the Measured category, 11.1 Mt is in the Indicated category and 5.6 Mt is in the Inferred category. The Resource is inclusive of a Probable Reserve of 7.7Mt.

Basis of JORC Estimation

The latest increase in the JORC assessment (an increase of 6.9Mt to the present Resource of 27.7Mt) was conducted by independent consultants, SRK Consulting, based upon a 9,866 metre HQ diamond core drilling program, comprised of 8697.55m open hole and 1169.35m full core drill holes. A total of 94 vertical holes were drilled. Down-hole geophysical logging was performed on all drill holes. The 6.9Mt resource upgrade to 27.7Mt was performed within the Nyapa East block only.

Coal Resources for both blocks in the Berau project are summarised below:
