Development fully in ore (limited dilution)

Note: Single lift Hanging Wall Span typically 32m (HR=6.15)

14 /

Mining method

• Long hole stoping with fill

• North & South access on two dual lift levels gives 4 mining areas

• Greater percentage of free bogging increases productivity of each stope

• Sill drives fully in ore –reduces development dilution

• Production drilling parallel to hanging-wall to reduce blast induced dilution

Gwalia Site Visit Presentation / May 2018

Stope Cycles targeting higher production

Stope Cycle Time – 6 months per stope• ‘Bogging’ (extracting ore from the stope) represents just under 50% of stope cycle time • Filling and curing around 30% of stope cycle time• Adjacent stopes (beside, above, below) cannot be developed until curing complete• The maximum numbers of stopes ‘in cycle’ is four (on three levels)• Approximately 2 stopes ‘in production’ (blasting and bogging) at all times means overall

production rate influenced by draw-point productivity (which is current focus of business improvement activity)

• Mining commences on a new level (approx. 40 metres depth) approx. each 12 months• Commence with ‘centre slot’ on new level

Objective: Maximise production, constrained by:1) Waiting for adjacent/above stope’s paste fill

to dry2) Geotech considerations – not too many
