For full details of the current Mineral Resource and results of the Preliminary Economic Assessment please refer to the technical report entitled “Pegmont Mineral Resource Update and PEA” with an effective date of 21 January 2019, available under the Company’s website and on SEDAR.

 

The current Pegmont Mineral Resource Estimate is summarised below,

Indicated 5,758 Kt @ 6.5% Pb, 2.6% Zn, 11 g/t Ag
Inferred 8,277 Kt @ 5.1% Pb, 2.8% Zn, 8 g/t Ag

  2. CIM Definition Standards (2014) were used to report the Mineral Resources.
  3. Cut-off grade applied to the open pit Mineral Resources is 3% Pb+Zn and that applied to the underground is 5% Pb+Zn.
  4. Based on the following metal prices: US$0.95/lb for Pb, US$1.05/lb for Zn, and US$16.5/oz for Ag.
  5. Exchange rate of US$0.75:A$1.0
  6. Metallurgical recoveries vary by zone and material type as follows:
    • Lead to Lead concentrate: from 80.6% to 91.3% for transition and 88.0% to 92.7% for sulphide.
    • Zinc to Zinc concentrate: from 19.3% to 75.2% for transition and 61.8% to 78.5% for sulphide.

  8. Mineral Resource tonnages have been rounded to reflect the accuracy of the estimate, and numbers may not add due to rounding.

 

The PEA outlined a 10-year mine plan that generates a strong economic return with a (base case) pre-tax IRR of 32% (after tax 24%) and NPV8% of A$201M (A$124M after tax) using long term consensus metal prices of US$0.94/lb lead, US$1.09/lb zinc and US$16.50/oz silver. The PEA indicated a strong sensitivity to metal prices and US$:A$ exchange rate with a pre-tax IRR of 37% (after tax 27%) and NPV8% of A$249M (A$158M after tax), using metal prices as of January 22, 2019 of US$0.91/lb lead, US$1.18/lb zinc and US$15.31/oz silver and US$:A$ of $0.71.

 

The PEA is preliminary in nature. It includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves. There is no certainty that the results of the PEA will be realized.
