DELIVERY OF PRIMARY ORE TO GLENCORE’S ERNEST HENRY MINE COMMENCES Rocklands Rectification and Re-commissioning Completed to Operational Capacity, with Potential for Significantly Increased Throughput The Company is pleased to advise shareholders that re-commissioning of the Rocklands Copper projects main crusher circuit has now been completed, with only fine tuning and small in-house modifications being implemented to increase operational time and to decrease operational down time. Feed rates up to the nameplate capacity of 550 tonnes per hour achieved. Indications are from our experienced crusher operators that up to an additional 200 tonnes per hour is achievable as a result of the rectification work undertaken. The Company has been carrying out rectification works to the Main Crushing circuit, which was supplied and installed by Queensland company Index Industrial Brokers (Index-EMS), from Brisbane.

The crushing circuit testwork has now operated satisfactorily at 500 tonnes per hour with room for increased feed rates.
