 Our mission is to build a major iron ore mining
company in Latin America.
 Cerro Rojo project in Eastern Bolivia hosts high
grade +50% Fe resources.
 Develop projects like Cerro Rojo which are
scalable. Start small, low capex and scale up.
 Grade, Fe chemistry and infrastructure are keys to
achieving this strategy.
 Active project generation strategy.
Cerro Rojo BIF ridge strikes for more than 4 km
Focus On Low Capex, Scalable Fe Projects in Latin America

 Ferrum’s leading project is the Bolivian “Cerro Rojo”
deposit.
 Cerro Rojo part of Corumba/Urucum trend in Brazil –
RTZ “new iron ore province…” (1)
 Vale currently producing +6 mtpy and ships via barges
down river.
 Excellent infrastructure with rail, road access to site. Gas
lines and surplus power available.
 Community support is strong and committed to
development.

 Program testing near surface Fe mineralization
successfully completed in late 2012.
 Wide spaced program designed to outline open
pit, high grade starter pit.
 Drilling intersected consistently high grades
across 2,800 m of strike.

 Cerro Rojo Norte target defined by BIF outcrop and +50% Fe grab samples
 Probable parallel zone to main Cerro Rojo deposit. Potential to double resources
 Cerro Rojo Norte strikes for more than 4 km and has never been drill tested
 Global exploration potential of 1 billion tonnes at +45% Fe grades
 The Company conducted preliminary metallurgical studies at Cerro Rojo on a 157-kilogram sample collected
from four surface locations along 500 metres of strike.
 Average sample head grade 54% Fe.
 The ore can be upgraded using simple magnetic separation techniques with low yield loss.
 Grind size: 150 Microns (100 mesh), product of 63.33% Fe obtained with a 78% mass yield.
 Grind size: 106 Microns (150 mesh), product of 63.79% Fe obtained with a 72.71% mass yield.
12
(1) Samples were sent to Nomos Laboratory, an ISO 9001 certified assay and metallurgical testing company based in Duque de Caxias, Brazil, for assay and basic magnetic
separation tests.
The new Metal Bulletin 58% Iron Ore price
Index, one of several in the marketplace,
reflects the steel industry's growing
acceptance of and demand for 58% iron
ore product
 Ferrum intends to conduct a second phase and more comprehensive study based on representative samples
from across the entire deposit and from drill core later this year.
The Cerro Rojo ore is very close to this new
benchmark grade and creates a potential for
producing a Direct Shipping Ore ("DSO")
product.
 Located near Puerto Suarez, Bolivia near
Brazil
 Project is 8 km from rail line
 55 km by rail to port, 150 km to P. Busch
 Excellent road access to site
 P. Busch port development to south will
save 7 days barging – new infrastructure
initiative
 New $180 m Votoratim cement plant
near Cerro Rojo helping drive initiative
Rail crossing near project site
Gas line parallels near project site rail line
13
An Infrastructure Advantage
 A viable shipping solution for bulk commodities regionally and to the Atlantic.
 Barge convoys attractive for bulk transport of Fe. Up to 50,000 t capacities.
 More than 14 regional steel mills in Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay
region.
 Cerro Rojo well positioned to service this market
 Vale’s Corumba System and MMX use barge convoys to transport Fe to
Atlantic shipping
14
Latin America’s Gateway to Local Markets
 Production Urucum-Corumba
 Q3 2011 production of 1.6Mt Fe
production (annualized total: 6.5 mM.) – all barged.
 Study to expand capacity to 15 Mt – all barged.
15
 Two major producers already barging
product on the Hidrovia
 Total Corumba Production: +8.5
million tonnes/year
(1) Source: UABL Paraguay, Investor Presentation, 2011
 Production Urucum-Corumba
 Annual production of approx. 2.1
mt.
 MMX barges from Port of Laderia in Brazil, to
Argentina for load out to Panamax ships.
Corumba, Brazil - Expanding Production on the Hidrovia
 Preliminary logistics and transportation cost study.
 Complete additional beneficiation work to determine final
product and process by second quarter.
 Prospect and sample new Cerro Rojo Norte target area.
 Complete Preliminary Economic Assessment by third
quarter.

PROJECT GENERATION INITIATIVES AND OBJECTIVES
 Due diligence reviews in progress in Chile.
 Data verification on El Gato – lump DSO project, Bolivia
PROJECT CRITERIA
 Small capex, scalable projects. Mitigate project financing risks.
 Scalable, meaning start small 500,000 tpy but with capability to
expand to +1 million tpy.
 Open pit.
 Access to infrastructure including power, water, roads/rail and port
facilities.
 Pro mining jurisdiction in South/North America.

 Secondary enriched material forms colluvium fans
 Colluvium wash and screening sorts +60% Fe lump (6 mm)
 Small capex $5 million to complete plant and site
 Vendor estimates 15 mt resource to 6 m depth
 Ferrum estimates considerable resource potential upside
 Low risk-high reward characteristics

Small Cap – Significant Re-Rating Upside
 Cerro Rojo project potential for small capex and scalable
project. High grades +50% Fe and open pit.
 Cerro Rojo has an infrastructure advantage over far more
remote projects in the world.
 Proximity to the Hidrovia – Latin America's Mississippi River
system – an attractive shipping option for bulk commodities.
 Strategic plan – advance Cerro Rojo in 2013 and build our
Fe asset base in the Americas.
 Catalysts in early 2013 logistical/metallurgical studies. New
project acquisition.
 Small capitalization provides significant option value and
growth as projects are advanced and milestones are met.

  • 11. 11  Cerro Rojo Norte target defined by BIF outcrop and +50% Fe grab samples  Probable parallel zone to main Cerro Rojo deposit. Potential to double resources  Cerro Rojo Norte strikes for more than 4 km and has never been drill tested  Global exploration potential of 1 billion tonnes at +45% Fe grades
  • 12.  The Company conducted preliminary metallurgical studies at Cerro Rojo on a 157-kilogram sample collected from four surface locations along 500 metres of strike.  Average sample head grade 54% Fe.  The ore can be upgraded using simple magnetic separation techniques with low yield loss.  Grind size: 150 Microns (100 mesh), product of 63.33% Fe obtained with a 78% mass yield.  Grind size: 106 Microns (150 mesh), product of 63.79% Fe obtained with a 72.71% mass yield. 12 (1) Samples were sent to Nomos Laboratory, an ISO 9001 certified assay and metallurgical testing company based in Duque de Caxias, Brazil, for assay and basic magnetic separation tests. The new Metal Bulletin 58% Iron Ore price Index, one of several in the marketplace, reflects the steel industry's growing acceptance of and demand for 58% iron ore product  Ferrum intends to conduct a second phase and more comprehensive study based on representative samples from across the entire deposit and from drill core later this year. The Cerro Rojo ore is very close to this new benchmark grade and creates a potential for producing a Direct Shipping Ore ("DSO") product.
