Overview of Iron Sands Project

Large & well tested (to JORC Standard) Iron Sands Mineral Resource in Java, Indonesia, equivalent 65 Mt of Iron Project NPV of $505M with projected net cash flows of $185M per annum and operating cost of $190 per tonne Targeting sales of concentrate commencing in mid 2008, generating $30M net cash flows Further substantial upside in project life, scale and operating costs Bankable Feasibility Study for Project due for completion in mid 2008 Significant Indonesian demand for end product (currently 100% imported) hence strong Government and Industry support for the project to proceed Excellent Local Infrastructure – power, water, rail, port Proven Technology being applied (used by Bluescope in NZ since ‘86) Regional Licence approved, Contract of Works in progress In partnership (70/30) with strong and well connected local Indonesian Group Experienced Board and Management with proven project development skills in the iron ore sector

Global JORC Resource

Ocean Land

  • 605 million tonnes of magnetite bearing sediment grading 10.8% Fe, which equates to an

equivalent contained iron of 65 million tonnes

  • Of the global resource, there is 273 million tonnes of magnetite rich surface sand down to 7

metres grading 14.2% Fe, sufficient for over 30 years of mining

  • Global resource based on 929 holes for a total of 14,468 metres of air core drilling

Project Summary

Location

Mineralisation occurs on the surface, allowing for low cost resource estimation and mining. The deposits are located close to key infrastructure:

  • Railways
  • Gas reserves
  • 500,000 kva power line
  • Transport infrastructure

These factors should see a reduction in the capital costs of a potential development and shorten overall construction time

Technology

The deposit is similar to the iron sand deposits that have been mined and processed by Bluescope Steel in New Zealand over the last 30 years - it is anticipated that mining and down stream processing at Jogjakarta will be based on this same simple and proven technology

Ownership

Indo Mines earning 70% of Project, currently owns 30% On completion of the BFS Indo Mines interest will increase to 70%

Scoping Study Results

Scoping Study completed in April by ProMet Engineers

1 Million tonne per annum of pig iron production NPV of $505M @ $362/tonne ($795M @$435/tonne) Projected annual cash flow of $185M with operating costs of $190/tonne $30M per year cash flow from early sales of concentrate, mid 2008 start up Capital cost of $700M URS reports no high risk Social or Environmental Issues Pig Iron production within 3 years

Upsides being considered

Alternative Hot Metal processing could see costs reduced by $30 per tonne Increase Concentrator Size to produce sufficient product for both pig iron and concentrate sale Downstream expansion to Specialty Steels from liquid pig iron

Indonesian Development

Contract of Works (CoW) application now in progress

Performance Bond paid Principle Regional Licence granted Letter of support obtained from local regions No determined forestry issues Negotiations are under way

Heads of Agreement with Krakatau Steel has been signed

100,000 tpa of pig iron product for 15 years Indonesia’s largest steel producer( >2 mtpa) Delivery to commence in 2010

There is strong interest for ferrous product from Indonesia as they currently import 100%, also interest from other regional steel producers Indo Mines / Jogja Magasa Mining Offices have been established in Jakarta and Jogjakarta
