CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ONFORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ONFORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

Certain information contained or incorporated by reference in this presentation, including any information as to our strategy, projects, plans or future financial or operating performance, constitutes "forward-looking statements”. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “believe”, "expect", “anticipate”, “contemplate”, “target”, “plan”, “intend”, “continue”, “budget”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “schedule” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by us, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Suchfactors include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in the spot and forward price of gold, copper or certain other commodities (such as silver, diesel fuel and electricity); changes in national and local government legislation, taxation, controls or regulations and/or changes in the administration of laws, policies and practices, expropriation or nationalization of property and political or economic developments in Canada, the United States and other jurisdictions in which the company does or may carry on business in the future; failure to comply with environmental and health and safety laws and regulations; timing of receipt of, or failure to comply with, necessary permits and approvals; diminishing quantities or grades of reserves; increased costs, delays, suspensions andtechnical challenges associated with the construction of capital projects; the impact of global liquidity and credit availability on the timing of cash flows and the values of assets and liabilities based on projected future cash flows; adverse changes in our credit rating; the impact of inflation; operating or technical difficulties in connection with mining or development activities; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development; risk of loss due to acts of war, terrorism, sabotage and civil disturbances; fluctuations in the currency markets; changes in U.S. dollar interest rates; risks arising from holding derivative instruments; litigation; contests over title to properties, particularly title to undeveloped properties, or over access to water, power and other required infrastructure; business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued by, us; our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions or complete divestitures; employee relations; availability and increased costs associated with mining inputs and labor; and the organization of our previously held African gold operations and properties under a separate listed company. In addition,there are risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmentalhazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion, copper cathode or gold or copper concentrate losses (and the risk of inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks). Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. All of the forward-looking statements made in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements.

Environmental InnovationEnvironmental Innovation

Due to Zaldívar’s unique, high altitude desert location, environmental stewardship is a key focus. Initiatives include:

Alternative Energy

Use of bio-mass and solar energy as a substitute for fossil fuels

Bio-energy expected to provide over 50% of fuel supply in 2014

Estimated 8% annual reduction in greenhouse gases

Water Recycling

90% of waste water from operations, camps and offices is reused

Treated via a series of green processes including a wood-chip filter using earthworms to eliminate particulate matterBy-product of this process is also a nutrient-rich fertilizer

Agri-Innovation

Multi-year program dedicated to testing viability of growing plants at high altitude, in cold temperatures and using limited water

Would enable isolated communities to produce and sell these plants as both a food and energy source

Opportunity

Develop a feasible leaching process to recover copper from the oxide fines collected from tertiary crushing

~13M tonnes of fines grading 0.7% Cu are currently stockpiled~8M tonnes grading 0.5% Cu are expected for remaining LOM

Next Steps Scoping study completed December 2013

Feasibility study expected by year end 2014

Potential Benefits

Estimated additional production of about 16Mlbs of Cu per yearProject considers >10 full years of operation

Includes processing of existing stockpiled fines and new fines produced throughout remaining life of mine

Opportunity

Improve secondary sulfide recovery from existing processing circuit

Performing trials to improve recovery via addition of chemical reagents and bacteria

Next Steps

Detailed trials completed using several different bacterial and chemical reagents at a variety of temperatures

Trial results being analyzed to determine optimal implementation strategy and timing

Potential Benefits

Improve LOM copper recovery by approximately 5% from ~60% to over 65%Negligible additional capital as relies on presently installed infrastructure

Next Steps

Stage 1 of prefeasibility study completed December 2013

Project is on hold at current metal prices

Plans are in place and ready to be revisited in a stronger copper price environment

Potential Benefits

Significant extension to mine life via 1 B incremental tonnes grading 0.34% with a strip ratio of 0.46(1)

Increases total production capacity via concentrator facility

Ability to recover by-product gold and silver

Looking to the Future Looking to the Future

Zaldívar is a low-cost copper deposit in a mining-friendly jurisdiction close to an established port Strong free cash flow producer with a solid track record of profitability Significant remaining mine life; several options to extend mine life currently under reviewOutlook for long term copper prices remains positive due to continued demand growth and supply-side challenges Tremendous leverage to higher metal prices given extensive potential for deep sulfide reserve growthZaldívar is very well positioned for the future

Industry Head Grade Trends (Weighted by Paid Copper)

Copper Grade OutlookCopper Grade Outlook

40

Positive Copper OutlookPositive Copper Outlook

Structural change in demand supported by urbanization of emerging markets, i.e. China/IndiaIn the long term, the industry will be challenged to mount a sufficient supply response due to:– aging, lower grade mines and operational disruptions– dearth of new discoveries– project delays and development/permitting challenges

with next generation of mines in riskier, more remote locations

Industry costs continue to rise– Chile produces 40% of the world’s copper and is

experiencing cost pressures for desalinated water, energy and labor
