    Matilda-Wiluna Gold Operation
     Operations generate positive cash flows again in the June quarter
     Jun’18 gold production of 19,393oz (Mar’18 quarter: 20,631oz), in line with previous quarter, resulting in a
    record six months of gold production to Jun'18 of 40,024 oz (Dec'17 half: 30,541oz), a 31% increase on last half
     Record throughput of 535kt milled for the quarter (Mar’18 Qtr: 477kt), a 12% increase on last quarter
     Mill feed grade of 1.44g/t consistent with prior quarter (Mar’18 Qtr: 1.51g/t)
     Process recoveries reduced to 78.6% (Mar’18 Qtr: 89.4%) due to the main ore source being the transitional and
    fresh ore from the now completed M4 pit, a one-off isolated issue which was the primary constraint to achieving
    higher production in the quarter and half year, as well as increasing AISC/oz
     Process recoveries in the first three weeks of July are 91% due to the main ore feed source again being Matilda
    oxide ore
     All in sustaining costs per ounce (‘AISC’) for the quarter of A$1,509/oz (Mar’18 Qtr: A$1,092/oz)
     Stripping ratio for the quarter increased to 7.9 times (Mar’18 Qtr: 2.9 times) representing an investment in next
    quarter’s production and a large contributor to the higher AISC in the Jun’18 quarter
     Average realised gold price of A$1,685/oz for the half, and A$1,696/oz for the Jun ’18 quarter
    Corporate
     Current gold forward sales contracts of 26,189oz @ A$1,742/oz over the next 8 months
