EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Resource Evaluations (ResEval) was commissioned by Herald Resources Ltd (Herald) on behalf of PT Dairi Prima Mineral to conduct a review of drilling, sampling and assaying procedures in May 2004 and carry out mineral resource estimates in June and August 2004 for the Anjing Hitam Zn-Pb-Ag deposit. The deposit is located within the Generation VII Dairi Contract of Work (CoW) in North Sumatra, Indonesia, 120km south southwest of the provincial capital Medan and 3km south of the village of Sopokomil. PT Dairi Prima Mineral is the current owner of the Dairi CoW which is a joint venture between Herald (80%) and PT Aneka Tambang (Persero) of Indonesia (20%). The deposit was discovered by Herald in 1997. The review and estimation process included: • A site visit to examine drilling and sampling procedures and contract sample

preparation and assay laboratory procedures. • The incorporation of major lithostratigraphical and structural features within the

deposit. • Resource estimation for Zn, Pb, Ag and Zn_Eq (zinc equivalent). The ResEval Mineral Resource estimate is summarised in Table 1.

Table1. Anjing Hitam August 2004 Mineral Resource Summary

Note: The ResEval August 2004 mineral resource estimate was carried out using 3-D wireframes created in Surpac software and interpolated using Datamine software.

The mineral resource estimate complies with recommendations in the Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves prepared in 1999 by the Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC). It is therefore suitable for public reporting. The drilling, sampling and assaying procedures comply with industry standards and are appropriate for use in the Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS).

The mineral resource estimate was completed using the following parameters: • The Anjing Hitam resource area extends over a strike length of 720m (from

9,440mN to 10,160mN) and includes the 300m interval from 830mRL to -530mRL.

• Drill holes used in the estimate included 103 diamond core holes for 24,189.7m.

• Holes in the Anjing Hitam area were drilled at spacings of 50m x 50m and 50m x 30m.

• Core was either triple tube HQ or NQ size. The core was sampled by cutting half core at intervals up to 1m and was sampled to geological boundaries.

• Samples were sent to Intertek Testing Services (ITS) sample preparation facility

in Medan. Following preparation, pulp samples were sent to the ITS laboratory in Jakarta where the samples were subjected to a screening analysis for Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn by AAS geochemical analysis using a perchloric/hydrochloric acid digest.

• Quality control data was available. Results were reviewed by ResEval and were

satisfactory. • Drillhole collars have been accurately surveyed in UTM grid. • Downhole surveys were carried out on all holes using an Eastman single shot

camera. • Wireframes were constructed using cross sectional interpretations based on

mineralised envelopes constructed at a nominal 5% zinc equivalent cut-off grade. Samples within the wireframes were composited to even 1.0m intervals.

• The zinc equivalent used was: Zn assay + 0.8 x Pb assay. This is based on long

term metal prices of $US1050/t for zinc and $US650/t for lead and differential “typical” smelter payments and charges.

• A block model was created for the estimate having block size of 10m EW x 20m

NS x 2m vertical with sub-cells of 2.5m x 5m x 0.5m. • Ordinary kriging (OK) was selected for grade interpolation to incorporate deposit

variography into the model. Kriging was only attempted on the Main Mineralised Horizon (MMH) due to the small number of samples in the minor zones, hence restricting variography for these zones. The minor zones were estimated using inverse distance squared (ID2) grade interpolation. The results of the variography generally matched the interpreted geology and geometry of the MMH with an overall northerly strike and moderate easterly dip to the mineralisation. The low nugget and long ranges evident in the variograms confirm the excellent continuity of grade which was observed in the drilling data.

• The short range structures in the main axis for Zn and Pb were both 75m, which

is greater than the typical drill hole spacing and suggests that the drilling should have defined the grade of the deposit with a high degree of confidence.

• The ID2 grade interpolation used a search ellipse with a first pass radius of 60m,

a second pass radius of 120m and a third pass radius of 300m, with the ellipse oriented to match the overall dip and strike of the mineralised zones.

• Bulk density data was measured for the majority of sample intervals in this

resource. These values were used to interpolate density values into the block model.

• Resource classification was carried out on the basis of continuity of

mineralisation and drill hole spacing. The mineral resource was largely classified as Measured and Indicated due to the excellent continuity of the MMH and the adequate drillhole spacing for this style of deposit. Some of the upper lenses were also classified as Indicated where there was sufficient drilling to identify a continuous horizon. Peripheral zones of mineralisation were classed as Inferred due to the lack of continuity, the small number of drill intersections and/or the reduced confidence of structure.

The estimate was completed under the overall supervision and direction of Gerry Fahey who is a Competent Person as defined by the Australasian Code for the Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC Code) 1999 Edition and who consents to the inclusion in this report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. The team of people involved in the preparation of this report are listed as follows: • Mr A Green (ResEval Consultant) responsible for interpretation, digitising,

wireframe construction, statistical analysis and Mineral Resource estimation.

• Mr P Payne (ResEval Principal) responsible for the statistical analysis and Ordinary Kriging estimation (June 2004 estimate).

• Dr N Reynolds (CSA Consultants) responsible for geological interpretation. • Mr L Widenbar (Widenbar and Associates) responsible for the statistical analysis

and Ordinary Kriging estimation (August 2004 estimate). • Mr G Fahey (ResEval Principal) responsible for overall due diligence and

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Scope of Work Resource Evaluations Pty Ltd (ResEval) was commissioned by Mr T.W. Middleton, International Exploration Manager of Herald Resources Ltd (Herald) to undertake a review of drilling, logging, sampling and assaying procedures at the Anjing Hitam Zn-Pb deposit and carry out a mineral resource estimate. During the period 18th – 25th May 2004, Gerry Fahey of ResEval conducted a review of drilling, logging and surveying procedures on site at Anjing Hitam, inspected the Pt Intertek Utama Services (ITS) sample preparation facilities at Medan in Sumatra and reviewed the geochemical analysis procedures at the ITS laboratory in Jakarta. The conclusion from the site visit is that all procedures have been carried out to acceptable industry standards. A structurally focused geological assessment of the deposit was carried out by Dr Neal Reynolds of CSA Australia Pty Ltd (CSA) which provided the basis for an updated sectional interpretation of the resource based on the 2004 infill and extension drill programme. This study was then used to develop a 3-D geological and resource model created by ResEval as part of the Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS). 1.2 Project Location and Access The Project lies in the Regency of Dairi, Province of North Sumatra. The Generation VII Dairi Contract of Work (CoW), which covers 27,420 ha was initially issued to PT Dairi Prima Mineral (Herald 80%, PT Aneka Tambang of Indonesia 20%) in 1998. The Dairi CoW is located about 120km south southwest of the provincial capital Medan and 25 km west northwest of the Regency seat of Sidikalang (see Figure 1). It is centred at about 2 0 55 N, 98 010E. The project area is accessed by bitumen highway from Medan to Sidikalang and by lower grade provincial roads to the village of Sopokomil, the remaining 3km access to the Base Camp is by foot-path. Located in the rugged Barisan Ranges, which form the backbone of Sumatra, the project area rises from a northwest sloping valley terrace level of 300-500m ASL to over 1300m ASL to the southwest. 1.3 Data Supplied ResEval was supplied with Surpac format collar surveys, down-hole surveys, assays, lithology, structure and bulk density files of the PT Dairi Prima Mineral project area. ResEval extracted the drillhole data for the Anjing Hitam deposit and carried out detailed validation of the data.

2.0 GEOLOGY AND MINERALISATION

2.1 Regional Setting 1 The Dairi Project is situated within the Tapanuli Group, Lower Palaeozoic basement rocks of North Sumatra. These consist of a mixed sequence of flysch and carbonate lithologies assigned to the Carboniferous–Permian and is based on limited macro-fossil localities and may also extend into the Upper Devonian. The Tapanuli Group forms the oldest known basement sequence exposed in this region and has suffered polyphase deformation and low grade metamorphism as part of the Permo-Triassic Indosinian event. The Anjing Hitam deposit forms part of the Dairi Project and occurs as a large shale hosted massive sulphide Zn-Pb system within polyphase deformed rocks of Late Carboniferous or Early Permian age. This stratabound massive sulphide mineralisation has been interpreted as predating deformation, but may postdate sedimentation and early diagenesis. The majority of the mineralisation drilled to date occurs within a suitable host lithology cut by early NW and ENE trending structures, within a fault-bounded sub-basin on a platform margin. 2.2 Project Geology, Structure and Mineralisation

The project area is centred on the Sopokomil Dome, an antiformal structure which exposes black shale and carbonate units underlying a calciturbidite sequence of the late Palaeozoic Tapanuli Group. The Tapanuli Group in the Sopokomil Dome area has been subdivided into informal local stratigraphic units by PT Dairi Prima Mineral as shown in Table 2. The rocks have suffered polyphase deformation, including two major phases of fabric forming penetrative deformation, D1 and D2 with D3 and D4 producing more open folding, bedding slip and brittle faulting. However, due to the lateral variations and facies changes within lithostratigraphical units and the lack of well defined marker horizons it is difficult to decipher the detailed effects of the D1 – D4 deformation phases on the Anjing Hitam resource. In effect, the Main Mineralised Horizon (MMH) unit is often the most consistent and laterally continuous stratigraphic unit. The limited deformation within the thick MMH largely reflects the fact that most of the strain has been taken up by the carbonaceous shale host rocks, especially the hangingwall “pinstripe shales”. Mineralisation within the MMH is characteristically fine grained, massive and banded with compositional bands which are brassy (pyrite dominant) or bronzy (sphalerite dominant). Where the MMH becomes thinner at the margins and in the minor mineralisation in the hangingwall, structural complexity is more common with

zones of bifurcation occurring on the western and northern margins of the deposit. Two faults were modelled within the deposit; the Jaluk Fault and the South Fault. The Jaluk Fault (Figures 2 and 3) is a significant north-south striking normal fault zone which dips steeply to the east. It offsets the MMH by approximately 15-20m vertically and has been intersected downhole in SOP144D. The South Fault is located around 9500N and strikes at approximately 260°, dipping vertically. This fault has not been intersected in any drilling and has been inferred to explain the offset of the MMH.

3.0 EXPLORATION HISTORY

3.1 Discovery Exploration work was carried out by PT Aneka Tambang in the early 1990s which located lead-zinc mineralisation in veins and anomalous stream sediments containing very high values. Follow up work by Herald in 1997 located bedded massive sulphides within the basement stratigraphy and the stratabound nature of the deposit was recognised and drilled in 1998.

Resource drilling at Anjing Hitam up to July 2004 has been carried out exclusively by diamond drilling totalling 24,189.72m in 103 holes (Table 3 and Figure 3). The focus of the BFS has been on the most coherent and drilled out prospect called the Anjing Hitam Deposit. Other prospects in the vicinity include the Basecamp and Lae Jehe (Figure 1) were estimated in 2003 and classified as Inferred Mineral Resources. These deposits will require further drilling prior to carrying out mining studies.

4.0 DATA COLLECTION AND PROCEDURES

4.1 Introduction A review of drilling, logging and surveying procedures on site at Anjing Hitam and an inspection of the Pt Intertek Utama Services (ITS) sample preparation facilities at Medan in Sumatra and the geochemical analysis procedures at the ITS laboratory in Jakarta was carried out. The site visit investigation criteria were as follows: • Checking drilling practice: core removal, orientation marks, core loss

recording, core competency, depth markers, downhole deviation measurement methodology.

• Check core storage, core orientation, core cutting, sampling procedures

and historical inspections of core to hard copy assay and geology plots on randomly selected holes.

• Check the methodology of specific gravity determination and the formulae

employed. • Check outcrops and mapping to confirm geological understanding. • Check collar positions, grid transformations and general site layout

against plans.

4.2 Diamond Drilling Diamond drilling was carried out initially by a local contractor using a light man portable rig and then by Pt Boart Longyear of Jakarta (Boart) using experienced Indonesian drillers. Boart was contracted in 1998 and used an Edson 431 and later a second larger rig (LF70) for the deeper drill holes. Both rigs are used on site and are moved from site to site by self winching along jungle tracks and by helicopter when necessary (Eupene, 2001). Drilling is carried out on 2 shifts (7am – 5pm – 3am). All drilling has been diamond cored using wireline triple tube HQ or NQ core sizes. The core is oriented where possible using orientation spear points.

During the site visit the methods observed from the drilling practice were satisfactory and there were no fundamental flaws or problems observed from this methodology. Core recovery was generally good (95% - 100%), apart from within the fault zones and in some of the more deformed shale horizons. Diamond drilling for the BFS was carried out to: • Increase the confidence in the geological and resource model. • Define the mineralisation at Anjing Hitam to an appropriate level of

accuracy in order to develop an Ore Reserve. • Gain an understanding of the structural framework of the orebody and

gather geotechnical information for use in the underground mine design. • Provide additional sulphide material for metallurgical testwork.

4.3 Surveying

4.3.1 Grid Control

Surveying at PT Dairi has been completed using licensed surveyors PT Surtech Utama Indonesia (Surtech). Surveying is carried out on the UTM grid. The adopted datum (horizontal and vertical) for the project area is the current Indonesian National Datum “DGN-95” and for all intents and purposes is identical to the GPS datum – “WGS84” and the spheroid is defined as follows: Semi Major Axis 6378137m Flattening 298.25722

Page 15: Resource Evaluations Pty Ltdptdpm.co.id/id/images/stories/file/resource-evaluations...initially issued to PT Dairi Prima Mineral (Herald 80%, PT Aneka Tambang of Indonesia 20%) in

Page 12

Prior to the formal surveying a local ground grid was installed using tape and compass – this ground grid is neither rectilinear nor orthogonal. The local grid used in the generation of local grid plans and cross sections (Table 4) is based on the following transformation of two widely spaced “ground grid” points which yielded the best fit of the ground grid to an idealised version of the local grid:

Table 4: Local Grid and UTM Grid

The angular rotation between the UTM grid and the idealised local grid is 19.05o anticlockwise whilst the ground grid has a nominal rotation of 20o. During 2004, tests were conducted on the difference between UTM north and magnetic north. A total station instrument was used to determine the UTM bearings whilst a reflex instrument was used for the magnetic bearings. Eight separate readings were recorded with an average difference of + 0o 17’ 11” or + 0.286o for magnetic north over UTM north, i.e. magnetic north is UTM north + 0.286o. No corrections to the UTM north bearings in the drilling database were made as a result of this very small difference.

4.3.2 Collar Surveys

All the drillhole collars have been surveyed by Surtech to total station electronic distance EDM accuracy in UTM co-ordinates. A separate survey of topography was carried out in 2000 using GPS survey control on the Indonesian National Datum (DGN 95). This included the surveying of drillhole collars (as checks) and topographic surveys (2m contour plan). In conclusion, the surveying of drillhole positions matches the regional setting and has been partly validated by cross over surveys.

4.3.3 Downhole Surveying Downhole Eastman (Figure 5) single-shot surveys were taken nominally every 30m through the drill bit and at the end of holes. Drillhole deviations were generally less than 100 in both dip and azimuth.

Figure 5: Eastman digital down-hole camera

An orientation spear is run nominally every 10m and after each run in the Julu Unit and in mineralisation. Whole diamond drill core is orientated using the orientation spear points. Metre intervals are marked and recoveries are measured. Orientation marks are generally adequate to allow orientation of the core and subsequently measure the attitudes of the geological features. Problems have occurred obtaining favourable orientation marks in the more broken shale horizons in the Julu Unit and within fault zones.

The combined collar and downhole survey data indicate that the locations of the core samples are defined to sufficient accuracy to be used in a mineral resource estimate.

4.4 Core Handling, Photography and Storage Block markers for depth were routinely added and the core is stored in 1m long timber core trays and carried down to the core shed by teams of handlers. Core recovery is generally good except in fault structures. Core photography is carried out using a Nikon SQ megapixel digital camera for drilling prior to sampling and logging. The use of core trays with depth blocks, orientation marks for core orientation, tray identification and documentation were satisfactory and comply with industry standards. Core was laid out in an orientation cradle, reassembled and marked by pen for the cutting line (Figure 6).

4.5 Logging

Whole diamond drill core is logged in detail by site geologists using an evolved company standardised log form. Lithology, mineralisation, structure (Figure 7) and RQD is recorded for every metre. One criticism about this logging is that some data gathered may not be utilised and that there also there is very little room for any graphic logging on the proforma log sheet.

A summary log is created for each drillhole by the Senior Geology Manager Ian Bruce, which contains survey data, lithostratigraphy summary and descriptions of the mineralised units. Coupled with this, a drill hole cover sheet is written up containing details of the downhole surveys and contains a written section for objectives/results/comments. ResEval’s review of the drillhole logging data indicates that the standard of geological, structural and geotechnical logging is high and suitable for the development of resource models. The Julu/Jehe contact is relatively consistent and can be modelled as a 3-D surface, while the Julu/Dagang contact is more irregular and difficult to define. The Jaluk Fault and the Southern Fault have been modelled as 3-D surfaces based on the cross sectional interpretations.

4.6 Core Sampling Due to the visible nature of the metal sulphide mineralisation, assay sampling can be restricted to the mineralised intercepts. Generally the geologists sample 1m of the waste core both footwall and hangingwall to the mineralisation and sample the mineralised zones in 1m intervals. The core is marked out with a cutting line by the geologists and core sampling is carried out by an experienced sampling geotechnician using an industry standard diamond saw. After the core has been logged in detail, sawn half core samples are bagged on site in calico bags. One piece of core approximately 15cm long is placed in a plastic sample bag inside the calico bag for SG determination by water displacement methods at the ITS prep laboratory at Medan. Sample numbers are written on the bags and on tags placed inside the bags and the samples are then sealed and boxed for carrying to the Sopokomil village where they are transported by a vehicle to Medan by a senior company employee. 4.7 Mapping

Outcrop mapping has been carried out throughout the Sopokomil Dome area by Herald exploration geologists and by Neal Reynolds, mainly along stream sections and access tracks. The mapped surface outcrops were used as much as possible when developing the 3-D geological and resource model. 4.8 Sample Preparation Core samples are sent to the ITS sample preparation facility in Medan and checked against the submission sheets. The total sample submitted is dried for approximately 10 hrs, to a core temperature of 1100C. The samples are then crushed using a Jaques 8“ by 4“ laboratory jaw crusher. The material is milled in a LM5 mill to a nominal 90% passing 75 microns. All crushing material goes directly to pulverizing. An analytical pulp of approximately 200–250g is subsampled from the bulk and the milled

residue is retained for future reference. The sample preparation procedure is illustrated in Figure 8. All preparation equipment is cleaned with barren quartz prior to the commencement of the job. High pressure air is applied to clean the working jaw crusher and dust extraction was also used to minimise contamination. The pulp is stored in the paper bags of 200–250g each.

4.9 Geochemical Analysis Following preparation, pulp samples are sent to the ITS laboratory in Jakarta where the samples (apart from those designated as “ore grade” by site) are subjected to a screening analysis for Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn by AAS geochemical analysis using a perchloric/hydrochloric acid digest as follows: Stage 1: All samples are initially analysed as a first pass screening process for Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn by geochemical analysis using a perchloric/hydrochloric acid digest (HCl / HClO4) with an AAS finish. Stage 2: Samples designated as “ore grade” and those exceeding upper limits for the previous digest are re-digested for a “total digest” using a triple acid digestion of perchloric/nitric and hydrochloric acid (HCl/HNO3/HClO4) followed by an accurate volumetric finish in order to allow high concentrations of the elements to be analysed. 4.10 Bulk Density Data Specific gravity (SG) measurements were obtained from full core samples using a cradle to weigh the dry weight and then the wet weight after being submerged in a bucket of water. The cradle weight was then subtracted from each measurement. The core was not waxed, however the core was competent and there were no minor voids and in most cases no fracture zones within the core that would bias the determination. SG and bulk density testing was carried out on the majority of samples sent for analysis to the ITS prep laboratory at Medan used the following procedures:

1. Approximately 15cm of drill core was used per each 1m sample of mineralisation.

2. The sample is first weighed as wet weight (W1) 3. It is then dried at 105°C for 12 hours and weighed in air (W2) 4. The sample is weighed in water (W3)

SG is calculated according to the following formula:

SG = weight in air / (weight in air – weight in water)

SG = (W2) / (W2) – (W3)

4.11 Quality Control PT Dairi Prima Mineral used the following quality control practices during their drilling programme at Anjing Hitam: • Insertion of a standard every 20 m with the core samples (Figure 9). • External check analyses were performed by Cominco on 12 mineralised

half core samples crushed to -2mm, when they entered the project (Figure 10).

• In 2000, 42 coarse crushed residues analysed by Amdel laboratory in Perth resulted in good correlation with the ITS laboratory.

Page 21: Resource Evaluations Pty Ltdptdpm.co.id/id/images/stories/file/resource-evaluations...initially issued to PT Dairi Prima Mineral (Herald 80%, PT Aneka Tambang of Indonesia 20%) in

Page 18

• In 2004, 134 coarse crushed residues were analysed by Amdel laboratory in Perth which resulted in good correlation (Figures 11-13).

ResEval considers the quality control procedures used by PT Dairi Prima Mineral to be appropriate. Internal procedures for monitoring quality control are routinely carried out by ITS. These include the use of external standards and blanks supplied by Canmet and Gannet. Reports on internal standard monitoring are provided to the client. A sample tracking system known as the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) for sample tracking, quality control and reporting using bar coding is employed by ITS. ITS is ISO 17025 accredited and involved in an international (Geostats) round robin laboratory checking system.

Examination of the sample preparation and the assay laboratory indicated a high standard of operation. The testing procedures were of high quality, and the management well directed.

5.0 DATABASE DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION

5.1 Introduction Data used for the resource estimate was provided to ResEval by Herald and included an Access database of exploration drillholes and Surpac data files with up-to-date drilling information. These included collar surveys, down-hole surveys, assays, lithology, structure and bulk density files for the PT Dairi Prima Mineral project area. ResEval extracted the drillhole data for the Anjing Hitam deposit and carried out detailed validation of the data. 5.2 Collar and Downhole Survey Data Database verification was carried out by ResEval on a selected number of holes for collar location, survey information and assays. The review was carried out in the Herald Perth Office. A total of 30 holes were checked against original collar surveys, 17 holes for downhole surveys and 13 holes for assays against original laboratory reports. Table 5 below lists drillholes checked. All collar and assay data was found to be correct when compared with the original data, however, a few discrepancies were found (albeit minor in all cases) in the downhole survey data. The discrepancies appeared to be a result of transcription or data entry error given that data was taken from the single-shot camera and manually written on drillhole logs, whilst also being manually entered into the database.

5.3 Assay Data Checks were carried out on total hole depth, final sample depth, overlapping and missing samples and also detection limits and zinc equivalent formulas were checked.

6.0 GEOLOGICAL MODELLING

6.1 Introduction East-west drill hole resource cross-sections were extracted at 50m intervals using the local grid. For all cross sections, the assay fields Zn, Pb and Ag were plotted with the geology field called lithology. Mineralisation at Anjing Hitam occurs as massive sulphides within the Julu Carbonaceous Shale. The MMH occurs as a discrete sulphide lens up to 25 thick (averaging ~12m) which strikes approximately NW-SE, dipping at about 400 to the east. Several other mineralised lenses occur throughout the shale unit although they are generally less than 5m thick and of lower tenor than the MMH. Sectional interpretations by N. Reynolds were used as a guide for the ResEval interpretations. Units were then digitised and reviewed with him on screen to validate the interpretations three-dimensionally. No minimum downhole length was used as the interpretation included massive sulphide zones down to 20cm wide with no edge dilution. Minor intervals of internal dilution were included, particularly in the peripheral zones of the deposit where the mineralisation became more disseminated, to maintain consistency of the geological model. Two faults were modelled within the deposit: the Jaluk Fault and the South Fault. The Jaluk Fault is a significant north-south striking normal fault zone which dips steeply to the east. It offsets the MMH by approximately 15-20m vertically and has been intersected downhole in SOP144D. The South Fault is located around 9500N and strikes at approximately 260°, dipping vertically. This fault has not been intersected in any drilling and has been inferred to explain the offset of the MMH. Weathering profiles were provided to ResEval in hard copy cross sections and based on the information in the drillhole database all material was considered to be fresh rock for the estimation. 6.2 Preparation of Wireframes The interpreted sectional outlines were manually triangulated to form three-dimensional models (wireframes) as shown in Figures 14 and 15. The MMH is made up of objects 1-3, whilst peripheral zones consist of objects 10-21. In order to form ends to the wireframes, the end section strings were copied to a position midway to the next section and adjusted to match the dip, strike

and plunge of the zone. The wireframed objects were validated using Surpac software and set as solids. A wireframe was also constructed for the Julu Footwall (footwall1.dtm) based on interpretations provided by N. Reynolds.

7.0 STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

7.1 Introduction

An Access database containing all drill holes in the Anjing Hitam sector was provided to ResEval by Herald. Surpac string and data files for the previous (Kirkpatrick, 2003) estimate were also provided by Herald. A summary of the drilling data within the project area is shown in Table 6.

7.2 Sample Length Analysis

The 3DMs of the mineralised zones were used to code the database to allow identification of the resource intersections. Separate intersection files were generated for each object. The samples inside the resource wireframes were then extracted to allow analysis of the various sample lengths. The majority of samples were clearly shown to be 1m in length as shown in Figure 16 below.

Surpac software was used to extract 1.0m downhole composites within the intervals coded as resource intersections. The composites were checked for spatial correlation with the objects, the location of the rejected composites, and zero composite values. Individual composite files were created for each object in the wireframe models.

7.3 Compositing and Data Coding The composite sample data and the original sample data for the resource zone were imported into GeoAccess software for analysis. The data was separated into the MMH and other peripheral mineralisation. Summary statistics for the MMH are shown in Table 7.

7.4 Descriptive Statistics and Application of Cut-off Grades To assist in the selection of appropriate high grade cuts, the composite data for the main zone was imported into GeoAccess software and a log-probability plot was generated (Figure 17). It was decided that no high grade cut would be used due to the absence of erratic high grade outliers in the sample populations for each element.

8.0 VARIOGRAPHY STUDY

8.1 Methodology

The 1m assay composites from only the MMH mineralisation were reviewed. It was considered that due to the relatively small number of samples in most of the minor zones, variographic analysis was not warranted. Therefore ID2 interpolation was to be used in the minor zones.

8.2 Model Variography

Variography of the main zone was carried out using GeoAccess software. To determine the nugget, an omnidirectional variogram with a 1m lag was used, reflecting the down-hole composite interval. This resulted in a well structured variogram for Zn, Pb and Ag. The Zn variogram is shown in Figure 18. It was fitted to a nested two structure spherical model.

Figure 18: Omnidirectional variogram for Zn main zone

Page 30: Resource Evaluations Pty Ltdptdpm.co.id/id/images/stories/file/resource-evaluations...initially issued to PT Dairi Prima Mineral (Herald 80%, PT Aneka Tambang of Indonesia 20%) in

Page 27

Horizontal directional variograms were then derived using 25m lags reflecting the average drill hole spacing in the better-drilled area. The direction of greatest continuity was found to be 010o as shown in Figure 19 and was modelled using the nugget derived from the omni-directional variogram.

Figure 19: 010o horizontal variogram for Zn main zone

Down dip variograms were then derived in a plan perpendicular to that direction. The down dip variograms were generally poor. The greatest continuity was found to be in a dip direction of 30o to the east. The down dip variogram was fitted using the nugget, C1 and C2 values determined from the horizontal model.

Figure 20: Down dip variogram at -30o to 100o for Zn main zone

Comprehensive plots of the variograms are included in Appendix 3. A summary of the fitted variogram models is shown in Table 8. The results of the variography generally matched the interpreted geology and geometry of the main Primary Zone with an overall approximately northerly strike and moderate easterly dip to the mineralisation. The low nugget and long ranges evident in the variograms confirm the excellent continuity of grade which was observed in the drilling data. The short range structures in the main axis for Zn and Pb were both 75m, which is greater than the typical drill hole spacing and suggests that the

drilling should have defined the grade of the deposit with a high degree of confidence.

9.0 BLOCK MODEL DEVELOPMENT

9.1 Introduction The current estimate was carried out in the ResEval Perth office during August 2004. Resource outlines were prepared at a 5% zinc equivalent cut-off grade and used to create wireframes within which resource estimation was carried out. Surpac Mining software and Datamine software were used for all modelling and estimation procedures.

9.2 Block Model Extents and Block Size A block model was created to encompass the full extent of the deposit. Block model parameters are listed in Table 9. The block model used a primary block size of 10m EW by 20m NS by 2m vertical with sub-blocking to 2.5m by 5m by 0.5m. The parent block size was selected on the basis of 50% of the average drill hole spacing. The small sub-block size was necessary to provide sufficient resolution to the block model within narrow parts of the wireframe.

Table 9: Anjing Hitam deposit block model parameters

9.3 Density Assignments

The database provided by Herald included fields for laboratory derived densities (‘sg_lab’) and resource densities (‘sg_res’). The ‘sg_res’ field included all the ‘sg_lab’ data, plus estimates of the density for other zones within the wireframes not measured by the laboratory. The ‘sg_lab’ data includes the results from laboratory density determinations using the ‘Immersion’ method. A total of 719 measurements were available. For the ‘sg_res’ field, estimates were provided by B. Kirkpatrick of Herald and took into account the rock type, sulphide composition and grade. Approximately 30% of the values in the ‘sg_res’ were estimates. The ‘sg_res’ field was then interpolated within the ID2 estimate, using the same parameters as for the Zn, Pb and Ag fields. The average density for the deposit was estimated to be 4.23t/m3. Figure 21 shows the interpolated densities for the MMH.

9.4 Block Model Validation

In order to check that the interpolation of the block model correctly honoured the drilling data, validation was carried out by comparing the interpolated blocks to the sample composite data for both the MMH (objects 1-3) and the whole deposit (objects 1-3,10-21). Validation results for the MMH are summarised in Figures 22 and 23 and Table 10. Full details of the validation are included in Appendix 2 of this report.

10.0 GRADE ESTIMATION

10.1 Introduction

The last published Mineral Resource estimate was completed by Herald in March 2003 for PT Dairi Prima Mineral (Kirkpatrick, 2003). The method used was ID3 and reported using a lower cut-off value of 5% zinc equivalent (where 1% Pb was equivalent to 0.55% Zn and 1g/t Ag is equivalent to 0.005% Zn). An estimate using similar parameters was also completed by Eupene in 2001. A summary of the results and a comparison with the ResEval estimate is shown in Table 11.

Table 11: Previous mineral resource estimates The similarity of the resource estimates demonstrates the robustness of the deposit in both tonnes and grade. The difference between the zinc equivalent values is a function of the changing zinc and lead prices. 10.2 Ordinary Kriging Ordinary kriging (OK) was initially selected for grade interpolation to incorporate deposit variography into the model. Kriging was only attempted on the MMH due to the small number of samples in most other zones, hence restricting variography for these zones. OK parameters used in the OK estimate are shown in Table 12.

For the peripheral zones of the deposit (other than the MMH), the ID2 algorithm was used for grade interpolation. An ID2 check estimate was also performed on the MMH. All objects used an oriented ellipsoid search for the interpolation. For the MMH (objects 1 & 2), a search radius of 60m was used along strike by 30m down dip by 10m across strike. This was based on lode geometry and drill hole spacing. The remaining objects used an isotropic search. Almost all blocks were estimated in the first pass (97.8%). Those remaining unestimated after the first pass were then interpolated by doubling the search distance to 120m (2.1%). A third pass run with the search distance increased to 300m filled all blocks in the model. Parameters used in the estimate are listed in Table 13.

To show the spatial distribution of grade through the Anjing Hitam MMH, a plan projection of the resource blocks has been prepared and is shown in Figure 24. The figure shows a core of high grade mineralisation (>30% Zn_Equivalent) around the Jaluk Fault (and possibly displaced dextrally).

Figure 26: Anjing Hitam grade-tonnage curve The uniformly high grade nature of the deposit is demonstrated by the grade-tonnage curve. The majority of the resource has a grade greater than 20% zinc equivalent.

An Inverse Distance squared (ID2) check model was completed for the Anjing Hitam deposit to compare to the Ordinary Kriging estimate. The results were almost identical, with the Kriging model producing slightly higher grades for both zinc and lead. The results are shown in Table 15 below.

11.0 RESOURCE REPORTING

11.1 Resource Classification The Anjing Hitam deposit shows strong continuity of the MMH allowing the drillhole intersections to be modelled into a coherent, geologically robust wireframe. Good consistency is evident in the thickness of the structure and the grade distribution appears regular.

Page 39: Resource Evaluations Pty Ltdptdpm.co.id/id/images/stories/file/resource-evaluations...initially issued to PT Dairi Prima Mineral (Herald 80%, PT Aneka Tambang of Indonesia 20%) in

Page 36

The average drillhole cross section spacing for this style of deposit is considered adequate to define the resource zones in thickness, lateral extent and attitude with a reasonable degree of confidence. This is supported by the average hole spacing (50m) being less than the range of continuity measured by the variography (75m for Zn and Pb). ResEval considers that the confidence level is sufficient to categorise the majority of the mineralisation as a Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource. The central portion of the MMH was classed as Measured. The Indicated portion of the resource included: • the western side of the MMH where the zone bifurcates; • the north-eastern end of the MMH (object 2) where the mineralisation

becomes more stockwork rather than massive sulphide; • the MMH north of 9990N; • the south-east corner of the MMH (object 2) where the orientation and dip

of the mineralisation changes; • the MMH immediately south of the South Fault; and • some peripheral zones which displayed good continuity.

The resource block model has an attribute “class” for all blocks within the resource wireframes coded as either “mes” for Measured, “ind” for Indicated or “inf” for Inferred. The Measured Indicated and Inferred portions of the deposit are shown in Figures 27

12.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The Anjing Hitam resource represents a significant zone of high grade Zn-Pb-Ag mineralisation with consistent grade distribution. The main mineralised horizon (MMH) shows excellent continuity along strike and down-dip with consistent thickness and well defined boundaries. The site visit procedures review is summarised as follows:

• Core recovery is reasonably good apart from the deformed shale horizons and within fault zones

• Recording of drill depths was correct • The current drill programme was well organised, efficiently run and all

holes reached planned targets and depths. • Downhole surveys were accurate and frequent • Core storage is adequate, the facility will need to be expanded when

underground drilling takes place • Core cutting, bagging, sampling and dispatch methods were

satisfactory • SG determination methodology was satisfactory as was the formula

applied to the weights • Sample preparation and analysis were carried out to Australian mining

industry standards • The grid transformations and the transformation of the azimuth

direction was correct • Collar elevations were not checked • The current geological understanding demonstrates good continuity

between sections for the lodes and domains • A check of the hardcopy sections and the grade database correlated

with the randomly selected drillholes inspected on site was carried out and proved to be accurate.

There appears to be little potential to expand the Anjing Hitam resource beyond its existing limits. It is possible that some of the minor hangingwall lenses, may prove to be larger than currently defined, however their potential to enhance production may be reduced by the difficult ground conditions expected in the hangingwall Julu sequence.

Further work on the deposit should include drilling of both the Jaluk and South Fault zones, however this will need to be done from underground due to the orientation of the faults and the lack of appropriate surface drill locations. The deposit appears to have excellent potential for profitable exploitation by underground mining. Appropriate dilution parameters need to be included in any mining studies on the deposit.
