  30. Slide 30: Ore Haulage

    Ore Haulage  Ore will be hauled from Saramacca to Rosebel process plant, approximately 25 km  Requirement of 230 to 460 tph  Recent resources will be used for further evaluation  After internal preliminary comparison, 2 preferred options:  Conventional road trucks  Railway  Trade-off (third p

  31. Slide 31: Metallurgy

    Metallurgy  Preliminary metallurgical test work done:  9 composites from Saramacca drill core interval  Grade ranging from 0.7 to 7.7 g/t  Early recoveries:  Saprolite 97.0 %  Transition 76.0 %  Hard rock 82.0 %  Laterite must be tested in next metallurgical test work  Need further:  Ore c

  32. Slide 32: Potential Infrastructure Requirements

    Potential Infrastructure Requirements  Small maintenance shop  Explosive magazines  Lunch room  Telecom tower  Generators  Security infrastructure  Fuel tanks  Fueling station  Small office  Small warehouse  Camp for workers (Saramacca vs Rosebel)  First aid station 32

  33. Slide 33: Potential Equipment Requirements

    Potential Equipment Requirements  Mining equipment  Ore haulage equipment  Road maintenance equipment  Field maintenance equipment  Light vehicles 33

  34. Slide 34: Next Steps - Permitting

    Next Steps - Permitting Target Objective Date Establish operative UJV agreement - Accounting manual Step - Power plan agreement Q4’17 1 - Ore transport and mill configuration studies Complete Environmental and Social Impact Study (ESIA) - Social baseline studies Step - Environmental management plans

  35. Slide 35: Next Steps – Project Development

    Next Steps – Project Development  Conduct geotechnical, hydrogeology and geochemical drilling campaign  Award scoping study firm  Build integrated project team  Kick-off scoping study  Start mine design and planning with resources BM  Start ore haulage trade-off  Implement project controls 
