BRIGHTSTAR UPDATE
 Gold Increases to 384oz for 1st
week of July
 Ore grade increased to 3.3g/t
 Currently accessing richest part of the orebody

Latest estimates for gold produced during the first week of July increased to 384oz from 300oz (actual)
in the previous week in line with the increasing availability of dry ore for blending.

A total of 3,846 dry tonnes at a head grade of 3.3g/t was milled despite shut downs for planned
maintenance and wet weather affecting throughputs.

The 4th
of July represented the best production day to date recovering an estimated 3.4 kilograms of
gold from 779 tonnes @ 4.51g/t.

Mining has progressed to the 44mRL and is now commencing to access the richest part of the main Beta
orebody. This is the supergene zone where the ore body becomes significantly wider and higher grade
due to a blanket of secondary gold mineralisation which occurs in the weathering profile.
