MEC’s business model is to acquire concessions and to put in place a strong in-house team, including industry veterans in the geological, mining and legal areas to lead exploration, development and compliance aspects relating to the concessions. In this sense it is “an energy and resources developer”. MEC’s business model is a focused, professional and realistic one.

Notes

1. Resource estimate for an open-pit mining operation to depth of up to 400 m

2. Includes in-seam partings up to 0.3 m thick

3. Includes mineable coals to a minimum overburden depth of 5 m

4. Includes material mined under the coal seams to allow for a 35º slope

Boyd calculated a Coal Resource estimate in accordance with the international JORC Standards for the two major seams at Khushuut

The Khushuut Mine resources consist of both premium coking coal and weathered coal that are surface minable
