Silver Lake’s goal is to build a significant resource base and to become a high margin gold

producer. With this in mind, Silver Lake has acquired assets with certain attributes including:

near term production ability

dominant position in highly prospective regions

existing Inferred and Indicated resources with significant scope to extend these resources

sound economic indicators (relatively low entry cost, good widths/grades, close to existing

infrastructure, low discovery costs)

lack of previous systematic exploration (particularly at depth) with potential to discover new

deposits

We have focussed on gold projects because we believe the macro environment remains supportive

of the gold price. Gold has long held a role in financial markets as a reserve currency and an

inflation hedge.
