Stage 1 – Development Strategy

12

DFS• Complete DFS in July 2012• Hydrological and geotechnical drilling currently underway• Mining and processing studies nearing completion• Permitting underway

Mining• Start with open pit mining at Belinau and Asmar – de-risk and reduce pre-production capital • Hire all open pit equipment but owner operate – reduce upfront capital • Develop portal access from within Belinau pit – early access to high grade ore (in-pit adits)• Sublevel-stoping with benching and backfill – maximum gold recovery ... keep it simple• Owner operator with majority local workforce ... follow other successful operator’s methods

Processing• Build a conventional CIL 400,000tpa gold plant ... keep the process simple and costs down• Secured design for previous plant enabling use of existing concrete foundations – significant savings• Historical production confirmed gold recoveries greater than 90%• Test work using oxygen to improve silver recoveries to greater than 85% underway• Option to upgrade existing tails dam to be confirmed in the DFS ... reduce upfront capex

and regulatory issues

• Tembang Project– Excellent early (within 6 months) cash producing asset– Low initial capital outlay– Production costs targeted for 1st quartile– Brownfields project means lower technical risk

• Major competitive advantage in Sumatra– Large tenement position and projects– Demonstrated capacity and ability to acquire projects, attract quality JV partners

• Experienced operators on the ground– Adi Sjoekri...director and geologist...permitted several projects prior joining Sumatra– Grant Harding...process engineer...20 years in Indonesia

Gold Equivalent Reporting

Gold Equivalent = gold assay + (silver assay / 50) where the number 50 represents the ratio where 50 g/t Ag = 1 g/t Au. This ratio was calculated from the average of the 12 months of Financial Year 2011 from July 2010 to June 2011 taken from published World Bank Commodity Price Data and rounded up from 47 to 50. (http://econ.worldbank.org/WBSITE/EXTERNAL/EXTDEC/EXTDECPROSPECTS/0,,contentMDK:21574907~menuPK:7859231~pagePK:64165401~piPK:64165026~theSitePK:476883,00.html).The metal prices thus used in the calculation are the average gold price of US$1,500 per ounce and average silver price of US$30 per ounce. Metal recoveries assumptions are 90% for gold and 80% recovery for silver for Belinau.
