Syama: a robust, long life flagship

• Underground Definitive Feasibility Study

(DFS) published June 2016

• Life of Mine All-in-Sustaining-Costs of US$881 per ounce

• Initial operating life of more than 12 years

• Total Syama Gold Mine production will grow to 250,000 ounces per annum

• Pre-production capital of US$95 million -fully funded from current balance sheet and future operating cash flows

• Substantial upside with opportunities to extend mine life, increase mining recovery and further reduce All-In-Sustaining-Costs

Innovation and improvement focus

• Processing enhancements

Flotation Tails CIL: the calcine CIL circuit will be repurposed to treat the flotation tails

New Calcine CIL: a new dedicated calcine CIL circuit will be designed and installed

Regrind: the coarse calcine product will now be reground prior to CIL

Upgrade of current flotation circuit

• Mine design upgrades

Twin decline design: ventilation and haulage capacity increased

Now able to consider alternative haulage e.g. conveyor

Internal ore passes: reduces tramming and improves loading efficiency

Draw points orientated perpendicular to regional stress direction
