Metal in the ground
High grade (14gpt Au) and shallow (from surface) vein system
Previous DFS1 based upon a Mineral Resource of 358koz Au over 900m strike
Significant in situ Base Metal Sulphide and Silver potential credits of ~$ 160/t2
1-5 parallel vein systems developed on strike but not commercially mined
Ore-body found to be open along strike (>2km) and at depth (>340m) demonstrating, we believe, to have significant upside potential to at least double the Resource
The 2012 Development Plan – AUD 30-50 million
Complete purchase of project to 72.25% (July 2012)
Refurbish the mine to operate under the existing valid Mining License – in the style of KRM’s successful Way Linggo project
Complete metallurgical optimisation test-work, to improve on historic recoveries of 75% (target >85%), and construct plant accordingly
Enter into refining agreement with Indonesian entity to treat Au concentrates from 2013
The 2012 Development Plan: Production Ramp-Up
Produce 10-20koz of Au from existing development drives with access from declines from late 2013 at a cash cost of <USD 500/oz Au - lowest quartile
Expand the development along strike, and on sub-level stopes, re-commission the two vertical shafts to increase production to 30-40koz during 2014
Further expand the mining operation within the existing vein system increasing access declines to increase production to 40-60koz by 2015
Post 2015 - expand into resources identified by exploration
