COMMENTARY ON RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

HIGHLIGHTS

• The results for this financial year were heavily impacted by the failure of the SAG mill which impacted the first 6 months of operations and accordingly, we would anticipate a material improvement in the coming 12 month period.
  
  
• All expenses in relation to the repair of the SAG Mill have been fully expensed in the 12 month period. Furthermore, any insurance claims arising therefrom, including a loss of profits insurance claim, have not been reflected in the current year results. Any insurance proceeds received subsequently will be disclosed as income in the period received.
  
  
• Whilst the results for the year were affected by the SAG Mill incident, following the recommencement of full production in January 2012, the six months to June 2012 has resulted in production of a record 100,013 ounces.
  
  
• In the six months to 30 June 2012, net profit after tax was US$28,109,938 (6 months to 30 June 2011: US$26,063,123) before allowing for non-recurring expenses on the SAG Mill of US$6,213,085 and impairment arising from the mark to market of investments of US$6,869,837.
  
  
• The plant continued to operate above expectations with availabilities for the 6 months to 30 June 2012 averaging 94.8%. Since recommissioning, the SAG Mill has consistently operated at or above 6.6Mtpa.
  
  
• The optimisation study commenced during the year is due for completion shortly and will look at various options to lift production rates to +10Mtpa.
  
  
• Net tangible assets per share increased from US73.42c per share at 30 June 2011 to 84.39c per share as at 30 June 2012. Net assets likewise increased from US$23,099,543 as at 30 June 2011, to US$321,263,390 as at 30 June 2012.
