“ 2.2 Mt/a of new production capacity is required by 2019....to offset

expected closures and attrition at base case operations and to meet

demand growth”

“ Developing ...new capacity in a timely fashion will be a significant

challenge for the zinc industry in the near to medium term ....as

todays metal prices and economic environment are not particularly

supportive to the financing of new mine capacity “

Zinc Market – Best fundamentals

in a long time

Wood Mackenzie , April 2014

“$7 billion is needed to finance 2 Mt/a Zn of project capacity “

CBH Priorities

Profitability and costs (including removal of carbon tax ! )

Future for Endeavor Mine ( replacement feed , leveraging

infrastructure )

Development of high grade Main Lode ore sources at Rasp, and

return to design throughput in 2015

The next orebody - exploration to remain focussed on areas

within vicinity of existing CBH mines

Business development opportunities (Targets Zn , Pb, Cu ,

Cu/Au )

Positioning for higher zinc and lead prices
