  5. KYRGYZ REPUBLIC Kyrgyz Republic • Country well connected by rail • direct rail access to markets in Kazakhstan, China, Russia and Europe • Long history of gold mining (Kumtor production 500,000oz per annum) • Population 5 million • Other Western companies active in the resources sector: • Centerra • Goldfields • Santos • Manas Resources • Chaarat Talas Valley

  6. Andash Overview ANDASH PROJECT • One of the world’s lowest cost gold mines • Low Strip Open pit • Standard Flotation • High grade concentrate • Significant resource & reserve base • Excellent Exploration Potential • Further upside from Zones 2 & 3 • Potential 10+ yrs mine life • Local approval imminent • Strong engagement at federal level • Government to own 20% of project • 12 month construction programme • All machines commissioned 9.9m @ 7.9g/t Au 8m @ 6 g/t Au 57m @ at 1.5g/t Au, 1.4% Cu 6

  7. ANDASH PROJECT Overview (cont’d) • Easy topography • Low elevation • Good road access • Nearby rail • Nearby power • Nearby water Above: View from Andashore body looking south 7

  8. ANDASH PROJECT Andash Long Section • Wide ore body, bulk mining • Outcrops • Low strip ratio 0.72:1 • Conventional open pit & flotation • Base of pit follows footwall • High grade starter pit Gold g/t 8

  9. ANDASH PROJECT Andash Cross Section 320 m E

  10. Andash JORC Resource & Reserve ANDASH PROJECT *Ore Reserve estimated using assumptions of US$525/oz gold and US$3,000/t copper 10

  11. Andash Project Economics (KGL 80%) ANDASH PROJECT Project NPV (US$) *capital cost under review, to be confirmed prior to development **after Cu credits and royalty at a long term Cu price of US$2.75/Ib • 3 stage crush, grind, float process • 1.6mtpa to 3.2mtpa throughput • Initial mine life 6 years • Zone 2 and 3 potential to extend mine life to 10+ yrs • Further upside from nearby exploration targets • Annual production of 70,000 oz Au and 7,400t Cu • Capital Cost US$96m* • Cash cost US$29/oz Au** • High grade concentrate 24.5% Cu and 72 g/t Au • No deleterious elements • Royalties – Gold 5%, Copper 3% 11

  12. Andash Zone 2 and 3 ANDASH PROJECT • Explored by adits • 30 diamond drill holes • Located 1 km west of Andash Zone 1 • Exploration target of 5 to 10 mt of ore @ 1 to 1.5 g/t gold* • Potential to increase Andash mine life to 10 yrs + * The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target are conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. 12

  13. Jervois Copper Project JERVOIS PROJECT (AUSTRALIA) • 100% Interest • Granted Mining License • Land Holding 38 km2 • 12km of prospective strike Outcropping Copper Ore 13
