Operational Results Operational Results

On Target:

Production FY06 – 140,071 ozs, just below target Mill throughput – at new nameplate 2.3-2.4 mtpa Gold grade 2.4g/t – on target for FY06 Strip ratio 7.0 – on target for FY06

Costs & pressures

Low costs maintained due:

  • Grid power, few expats, source materials locally

Cost pressures continue industry wide:

  • Consumables, explosives, cyanide
  • Diesel fuel subsidy removed fully

Forecast Forecast

Forecast FY07:

Similar production to FY06

  • from main Chatree pits & A pit at Chatree Nth

Costs similar to June Qtr’06, but industry wide cost pressures exist Higher Mill throughput of 2.3-2.4 mtpa Mine plan adjusted due to timing of granting of Chatree North mining leases Greater leverage to gold price as <59,000ozs to be delivered in FY07 to close hedge book Only third of FY07 production hedged (US$317/oz)
