Training and Recruiting Machine Health

Condition Monitoring Emissions Reduction

Rosemont Relationship

• Best In class

• Machine Availability/Fleet Size • Condition Monitoring

• Collaboration with Mine Personnel

• Operator Training

• Use of Technology • Fully Engineered 3-D mine

• “Living” Mine Plans

• Reclamation as they are Mining

• Machines Communicating Peer to Peer

Mining Background

• Old mining vs. Todays new mining process – Today federally permitted, fully engineered – best practices,

mandatory environmental, air and water impact mitigations, public input

– Old way - Bring in equipment and start working-no environmental control

– Regulations came after operations began • Always playing catch up

• Greenfield Mining opportunities U.S.A – Produce safe working conditions for miners

– Produce safe environmental impacts for local communities

– Positive Economic impacts for communities

– United States can lead the world in environmental mining stewardship

MEET THE MACHINES

Did You Know?

• 793F 260 ton class truck – Production takes 6-12 month depending on market conditions

– Takes 5 loads per truck to assemble including tires

– Takes 7 working days and 350 man hours to assemble

– A typical Caterpillar truck will be rebuilt 1 time every 4-5 years and total rebuild at 20 years

– Has all the comforts of today’s modern vehicles

– 3,734 of 793 models built worldwide; 240+ in Arizona alone

• Tinaja Hills Training Center Tourism Impact, 2013 – 5,087 visitors

Machine Order Process

• No equipment built today

• Orders pending final ROD and mine permits

• Rosemont ordered the best available technology – Emissions

– Noise

– Dust Control

• Empire will deliver best available technology

• Caterpillar produces equipment with the best possible emissions and most integrated safety and technology available

Our Values In Action

• Our Values In Action remain the foundation of our strategy

• Reaffirmed and strengthened our values by elevating Sustainability

Committed to Sustainability
