UNDERGROUND DEVELOPMENT –

Q3 2011 UPDATE

• Excellent progress on underground development.

• Orebody

accessed and first level commenced.

• Raise boring of ventilation underway, paste fill commenced.

• On track for first ore to be produced from stoping by Q1 2012.

• Full mining rates (1.2Mtpa) by Q3 2012.

• Contributes 25,000t copper and 12,000oz gold per annum.

• Will enable production of 100,000t to 110,000t copper to be maintained.

• Pre-production capital increased to $148 million (<10% increase) due mainly to higher mining costs and extra plant requirements.
