Mongolia – A Very Simple Story for Investors
Mongolia is all about

Mongolia will
undergo
transformational
change over the

 Driven by emerging market global demand for resources
 Truly undiscovered mining frontier
 World class assets - Tavan Tolgoi and Oyu Tolgoi
 Significant potential
- 6,000 mining deposits over 80 minerals
- 75% of Mongolia mapped at only 200,000:1
- only 17% of Mongolia under exploration, 0.3% under mining license
