FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This presentation contains “forward looking information” or "forward looking statements" that involve a number of risks and uncertainties.Forward looking information and forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the future prices ofgold and other metals, the estimation of mineral reserves and resources, the realization of mineral estimates, the timing and amount ofestimated future production and output, costs of production, capital expenditures (including sustaining capex, non-discretionary capexand discretionary capex), costs and timing of the development of new deposits, success of exploration activities, permitting time lines,currency fluctuations, requirements for additional capital, government regulation of mining operations, environmental risks, unanticipatedreclamation expenses, title disputes or claims, limitations on insurance coverage and timing and possible outcome of pending litigation.Often, but not always, forward looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, or “does not expect”,“is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, or “does not anticipate”, or “believes”, or variationsof such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or beachieved.

SAFETY

• Best Smelter safety record ever achieved in 2015 (AIFR & LTIFR).

• Good trend on safety performance for all sites comparing well to North American metrics.

• The next Phase is to focus more specifically on behavioral safety to prevent the performance from flattening out.

OPERATIONS HISTORY AND REVIEW

TSX:DPM 12

• Built in 1960-62. Commissioned 1963.

• Designed to treat complex ores from TsumebMine containing high levels of copper, lead, zinc, arsenic and cadmium.

• Environmental and health challenges during ‘80s and ‘90s; Pb, As and SO₂ emissions above international standards for years.

• New furnace (Ausmelt) built and commissioned in 1996 to treat Lead.

• Namibia’s copper mines closed in 2008.

• Ausmelt re-commissioned 2008 for Copper treatment.

• DPM purchased the Smelter from Weatherly Mining in March 2010.

• Production capacity increased from 147,000 t concentrate in 2010 to a current capacity of 240,000 tpa.

SMELTER Business Proposition

Enablers

Additional discretionary upgrades to increase capacity and lower costs

• Successful occupational exposure controls with hygiene installations

• New dust management systems

• Acid Plant and Copper Converter Installations Curb SO2 emissions

• Oxygen and Acid Plant capacity installed for 370kt/a Smelting rate

• Installation of upgraded Ausmelt Cooling

• Installation of a Rotary Holding Furnace to release operational constraints with Continuous Ausmelt and Batch Copper Converters.

• Robust Cash flow generation through the commodity cycle (TC vs price linked).

• Able to Treat high Arsenic concentrates directly vs blended

Ongoing Activities

TRANSFORMATION OF A UNIQUE SMELTER EQUIPPED TO TREAT COMPLEX COPPER CONCENTRATES

• PFS Completed in 2015 for the Rotary Holding Furnace

• FS commenced in January

• Optimization of existing facilities

Value Proposition

TSX:DPM 18

Bulk Smelting Market

• Global copper concentrate sales have transparent benchmarks.

• These typically range from $90 to 130/t between contract and spot tonnage.

• Contract durations are normally 1-year and therefore negotiated annually.

• Concentrates need to be free of deleterious materials or face being rejected or attract penalties.

• Treating complex elements requires blending with clean concentrates.

Complex Concentrates Market

• Tsumeb is a niche complex concentrate treatment facility with core arsenic capability.

• Multi-year agreements attract premiums to the clean market of $30 to $50/t.

• Thresholds for core arsenic penalties vary but generally start above 0.5%

• Charges are on a $ per 0.1% increment over 0.5%.

• In some cases the $ per 0.1% penalty will increase as the arsenic level increases.

• Additional Penalties possible - Lead, Zinc, Se, Te, Bi, moisture, etc.

• Until Q3 2013 the smelter had 2 furnaces.

• Decommissioning of the Reverb furnace in 2013 significantly curbed emissions but exacerbated in-process inventories.

• EBITDA of $18.3M in 2014 was reduced to $8.7M in 2015 as a consequence of inefficiencies during construction and transitioning to a Toll Smelter.

• Completion of construction is expected to debottleneck production and improve EBITDA.

• Opportunities include improving smelter availability and reducing in-process recycles.

Capital expenditures - Growth

• The smelter fixed costs are current about 78% of the total

• There remains significant upside from optimization within 215-250kt targeted for 2015 (a 10% to 28% increase in smelting) and further potential to 265kt (a 30% increase) before running into Aisle logistics constraints.

• At the same time only $4M growth capital remains to spend in 2016 of the $350M for the acid plant, converter and occupational exposure controls.

• Sustaining capital is expected to continue at an estimated $12M rate going forward.

Management Operating Model

Differentiating DPM with management practices

• Chelopech is the prime example of successful change between the 2003 purchase and the current operation.

• That change included the introduction of new management practices and specifically better planning and scheduling of activities.

• This forms the core of our current “operational excellence” activity

• We are currently implementing our work management practices at Tsumeb with good success

• We have similarly seen success at Kapan with Capital Development rates

• These activities together with our organizational development practices improve productivity, costs and efficiencies

• Progressing this across the organization increases our capacity to implement at other or new sites
