Lobo Gold Project Dual StrategyTo Establish Low Cost Production Then Expand With Exploration

1. Established resources of 444,000 ounces* of gold, Definitive Feasibility Study and final permitting well

advanced for initial open pit, high grade, gold project at Batangas, only 120km south of Manila in the

Philippines

2. Immediate exploration upside for further high grade gold discoveries, based on defined targets with high-

grade surface trench intersections: e.g. 8.35m @ 18.4 g/t Au), 2.6m @ 28.6 g/t Au and 3m @ 22.2 g/t Au (ASX

announcements 12/02/14 and 07/01/14)

Dual strategy to develop the initial gold project, get into gold production, increase high-grade gold

resources through on-going exploration and then expand the project

The Batangas Gold Project has a number of advantages:

• Granted Mining Licences (Philippines MPSA’s), all with established resources and exploration upside

• Ideal location, access and local infrastructure - only 20km from the major industrial port city of Batangas

• Simple project, low operating cost (US$703/oz) with rapid capital payback potential (<18 months at current gold

price)

• Strong local government endorsement and community support to underpin final permitting to develop the mine

* JORC 2012 Indicated and Inferred resource as at 30 June 2014

Lobo Gold ProjectGold Plant Facts

• The Carbon in Pulp (CIP) gold plant will process 100ktpa from SWB (45um grind, 48

hours leach) during the first 3 years and then 250ktpa from Kay Tanda (106um grind, 24

hours leach) for the remainder of the mine life.

• During the processing of SWB the gold plant requires water input at the rate of 16.7

m3/hr. of which 60% or 10m3/hr will come from residue liquor reclaim.

• While processing the KTW ore, the total water requirement will be 35 m3/hr. of which

60% or 21m3/hr will come from residue liquor reclaim.

• These numbers assume a “steady state” operation and that 60% of the water contained

in the tailings will be returned to the plant to be re-used as process water (ie the fresh

water requirement is over and above the water returned from the tailings dam).

• The plant and mine site will require power supply of 1,271 kW, with the expected load to

be 1,080 kW.

• This will come from diesel generators on site. There is an option in year 2 or 3 to

participate in funding a 67kVa power line from Batangas City or Taysan but this is still

being studied.

Page 38: Egerton Gold Philippines Inc September 2018 - confer.nz · • Victoria Gold Mine of Lepanto Mining in Mankayan • Padcal Copper Mine of Philex • Didpio Project of Oceana Gold

Water and Residue Management

• All water from the mine sites will be directed or pumped to settling ponds where it will be allowed to settle and treated if

necessary to meet Philippine standards for release into the watercourse

• All water from roads, cleared areas mill site and other disturbed areas will be similarly treated. Silt traps will be installed

and best international practices for water management and silt control will be implemented

• It is expected that once the mine operation is underway these areas will be vegetated or dressed with crushed rock

which will minimise further silt runoff.

• Residue and slurry from the Gold Plant operation will contain crushed and ground rock along with residual cyanide and

some metals in solution

• A cyanide destruction module will minimise cyanide in the released residue then resulting water will be resident in the

RSF and will undergo polishing in a separate downstream polishing pond before being released

• These waters, when released will comply with Philippine stream water quality standards (i.e. free CN< 0.05 mg/l)

• Water balance studies suggest that Residue Storage Facility (RSF) will be dry, i.e. more water will be pumped out and

recycled to the plant than will fall on its surface so release will only be under controlled conditions during prolonged

rainfall.

• The RSF will be given extra freeboard and will be used to store water from the wet season into the dry season to

minimise the requirement for other sources.

Lobo Gold Project Residue Storage Facility

• A very clear 5 month wet season with a very dry January to April

• The water balance shows the RSF to be dry (no outflow) in the dry season due to 60% recovery of water for the gold plant via reclaim pump.

• Some controlled outflow will occur in the wet season.

• Generally, the RSF dam will be used to store water during the wet season for use between November and May. It is designed with extra freeboard for this purpose

• Some makeup fresh water may be required and this would be taken from deep wells in alluvial sediments at the base of the valley or a nearby river. This is yet to be determined.

• The RSF will be constructed using the downstream construction method with at least three lifts being built over the life of mine

• It is designed to hold 1.5 Mt of Ore or 1,000,000 m3 of residue/slurry assuming that the slurry will be delivered at a specific gravity of 1.4

Lobo Gold ProjectFinancial Model

• DFS is on initial production of >100,000oz gold over 5 years from only high-grade, open-pit,

Indicated Resources

• Low operating costs (pre taxes, charges and capital costs) of ¹US$703/oz Au (A$873/oz Au)

• Strong projected operating cash flow including taxes/royalties of ¹US$ 54.6 (A$67m), and free

cash flow of ¹US$36.7 (A$45m) over initial 5.2 years of the 10 years project

• Pre production capital of only ¹ US$15 million (A$18.4 million) including A$15 million installed

capital (Gold Plant and Tailings Dam)

¹Based on interim DFS financial model update released to ASX 23 January 2015

Lobo Gold Project Taxes and Advantages to the Local Community

• Currently the majority of household wage earners in the project area earn between P1,000 (NZ 26.00) and P10,000 (NZ 260.00) per month.

• Wages for local employees in unskilled to technical positions are expected to be between P9,000 (NZ 236.00) and P90,000 per month.

• Environmental and Community expenditure for the life of mine will be P270M (NZ 7.11M)

• Taxes for the life of mine AUD 12M

• Initial Capex of AUD16.5M (P668,250,000) and a total project Capex of AUD22M (P891,000,000), 10M to be spent on the Gold Plant in Australia and the remainder 12M almost entirely spent in the Philippines on goods and services and much of this can be spent in Batangas.

• Operating costs of AUD120M (4,860,000,000) for the life of mine include wages, mining and processing costs, camp costs, vehicles, spare parts, maintenance, and local goods and services.

• A large proportion of the Opex costs is Diesel Power. The Lobo Mayor has a plan for a commercial centre at Lobo but needs a high voltage line from Batangas. We aim to study how we can help to establish this power line and transformers, and take off the power that we require for the plant thus halving our power costs and benefitting Lobo Municipality.

We, the staff and management of EGPI, MRL Gold and Red Mountain are proud of

our track record over the past 12 years, working with and within the local Lobo

communities on exploration, environmental improvement, community development

and social programs. We have presented our project and the advances and

improvements that we feel we can bring to the people of Lobo at a number of public

hearings and we will continue to do so in public forums.

We have been open and honest in all our dealings with the local community and the

government authorities and we believe this approach is best for all stakeholders.
