Jabal Sayid (50%) – drilling of regional targets will continue and the existing resource of 1.4Mt
@ 1.6g/t (61,600 ounces) expanded.
Jabal Shayban (100%) – the current resource of 1.8Mt @ 2.8g/t (160,595 ounces) does not
include drilling underway since March 2008. A RESOURCE UPGRADE IS DUE JUNE 2009.
