Consensus re Scoping Study

Afternoon All,

Appreciate that this is a "how long is a piece of string" question, but is there a general consensus, based on what we already know, as to the effect the Scoping Study will have on our SP?

I know that there are all sorts of scenarios to consider (Takeover, Merger, partial project merger/JV) in the near term but given where we are at the moment and in light of various target prices (Bell Potter $11.10, Macquarie $10.55 back in March) what are people's expectations?

Obviously, none of us has a crystal ball but I would be interested to hear what others are thinking and why? I am also interested to understand what CapEx requirement would be to start a mining venture at Gonneville (both shallow and deeper).

I am very optimistic given what AD has said in recent interviews and can't help but think that CEO's don't make comparisons with the likes of Norilsk, Voisey's Bay lightly. However, that optimism is tempered by a rudimentary understanding that getting our company from explorer to miner is not a small undertaking.

Thanks in advance,
OB450
