˃ Low ash raw coal means that the coal could be sold as a ROM thermal product, with no requirement for beneficiation except to remove mining dilution
˃ Sale of unprocessed coal provides substantial capital and operating cost advantage
High Quality Coal Quality

• Underground longwall mine design with capacity up to 5.5 Mtpa of ROM thermal coal with a single longwall
• Resource size and topography would support second longwall to give total capacity of 11.0 Mtpa of ROM coal
• Geological and geotechnical conditions enable high production
• Low gas content - not anticipated that pre-drainage will be required prior to mining
• Very low raw ash content ensures no requirement for coal processing

Productivity Optimisation Strategy • Current work focused on key drivers for a high production single
longwall achieving 7.5+ Mtpa ROM
• Have undertaken both Australian and International benchmarking studies including inspections of several US operations.
• US operations have similar m/op hr rates but obtain higher operating hours per week
• 3 pronged strategy to maximize operating hours involving:
• Layout optimisation
• Process mapping looking to remove bottlenecks
• Evaluation of technology available and working with the OEM’s
• Maintaining an extensive exploration program to improve knowledge
• Structure, geotechnical and coal dilution mitigation
• Gas domain
• Groundwater

Proposed Execution and Construction Strategy
Springsure Creek Joint Venture
Integrated Project Owner’s Team • Project Director • Operational Management • Design Engineers • Elect and Mech Engineers • Structural Engineers
Package #3 • Underground Development
Package #2 • Drift drivage – TBM
Package #1 • Cut and Cover excavation
Package #4 • Mine Site Infrastructure
Package #6 • Infrastructure Corridor
Package #10 • Longwall Equipment Supply
• Bandanna is not necessarily proposing to establish EPCM contractor. Recent experience of EPCM in Australia has shown significant risk of cost overruns and delays
• Best opportunity to develop project within cost target and on time is through use of dedicated and experienced Owner’s team with necessary Project Management and technical support
Package #7 • Rail loop
Package #5 • Coal Handling
Package #8 • Power/water
Package #9 • Accommodation Village
Page 21
Drift Development • Drift development remains major schedule and
cost issue for construction project
• Bandanna sought contractor proposals in early 2013
• Proposals received include:
> Tunnel Boring Machines (TBM) > Drill and Blast tunnel development > Continuous miner tunnel development > Road-header tunnel development
• Following review of proposals, TBM was determined to be the most advantageous due to shorter development timeframe and increased schedule certainty. No substantial cost disadvantage
• Procurement timeframe for TBM – 9 months means need to consider early commitment for construction 6 months ahead of commencement of site works
Page 22
Springsure Creek – Project Dev Packages
Key Construction And Development Items:
• Two 1:8 drifts to pit bottom. Ventilation shafts plus equipment

EIS Commitments
• Coexistence of cropping and mining
• Bandanna is seeking approval condition that ensures continued cropping and maintenance of agricultural productivity throughout life of project
• Groundwater monitoring network (up to 10km from project area) established pre-approval to ensure comprehensive baseline monitoring for up to three years prior to any longwall subsidence
• Commitment to deepen or replace any bores impacted by subsidence or drawdown
• Local road upgrades. Timing of over-dimension vehicle movements to avoid disruption
• Location and orientation of longwall panels to avoid impacts on creek and drainage flows
Page 27
Springsure Creek Agricultural Project
• The Project is located in high production cropping land. Bandanna proposes to ensure continued agricultural productivity throughout life of project
• Bandanna’s Agricultural Plan includes:
1. A Coexistence Strategy
2. Support for the Agricultural Coexistence Research Committee (ACRC)
3. A Research Program - $3M program with first research projects to commence late 2013
4. Land Management
5. Landowner Engagement - Bandanna owned land plus other landowners
Page 28
Bandanna’s Coexistence Policy includes … Vision The complementary conduct of mining and agricultural activities in a mutually beneficial and sustainable framework.
Objectives To mine natural resources in a way that provides an economic return for shareholders while maintaining and improving agricultural productivity on operating farming properties that are directly impacted by our mining projects.
How we define coexistence Coexistence is defined as:
Working together with the agricultural community to ensure agriculture and mining can occur concurrently in an economically sustainable manner.
Commitments include • Establishing and funding mine projects including specific agricultural plans • Involving landholders and other land use stakeholders in the development
and implementation of the project specific agricultural plans • Complying with the regulatory operating conditions as they relate to
productivity.

Financial Structure
Capital Cost A$
Stage 1 – Single Longwall (5.5Mtpa) 752M
Stage 2 – Second Longwall (5.5Mtpa + 5.5Mtpa) 437M
Total capital (11Mtpa) 1,189M
Project Capital Cost (A$)
Capital Intensity ($/tonne of annual production)
Springsure Creek $1,189M 108
Surat $6,000M 273
Galilee $10,000M 313
• Due to proximity of project to existing infrastructure and low capex profile, Springsure Creek has significantly lower capital intensity than other major proposed thermal coal projects in Australia
• Note: These capital costs are from the Dec 12 DFS and substantial work ongoing to refine these costs
Page 31
Operating Cost
Operating Cost (LOM average) A$/tonne
Mining cost (to top of pit) 28.24
Coal handling & crushing 0.99
Road haulage (to rail loop) 4.57
Total Free on Rail 33.80
Rail cost 16.84
Port cost 11.80
Other costs 3.17
Free on Board (FOB) excluding Royalty, taxes 65.61
Note: FOB cash cost excludes carbon tax. No MRRT payable at sale price assumptions.
• Operating costs very competitive with existing production costs and significantly more competitive compared with many proposed Greenfield projects in Australia and in other supplier countries
• Note: These capital costs are from the Dec 12 DFS and substantial work ongoing to refine these costs
