2012 Copper equivalent amounts are based on previously announced LOM commodity prices: Cu at $2.75/lb, Ni at $8/lb, Pt at
$1600/oz, Pd at US$500/oz, Au at $1000/oz and Mo at $12/lb and excludes the impact of the Franco Nevada Agreement.
Total copper equivalent production in Q1 2013 increased to 38k tonnes* (83Mlbs) compared to 33k
tonnes (72Mlbs) in Q1 2012
Highest production growth in Q1 2013 was recorded in Robinson (+51%)
Continuous improvement in mill operating practices at Robinson mine have boosted production
rates, especially by increasing copper recovery rates and increase in mill throughput.

• Cu production 51% higher vs. Q1
2012 - higher recoveries and
increased milling rates
• C1 cost significantly lower than Q1

• The remainder of 2013
production will be transitioning
to include the Kimbley and
Liberty pits
• Improvement initiatives continue
around the mill performance
• Increased haulage fleet to allow
for accelerated stripping
Outlook
• Production 30% lower vs. Q1 2012 -
decreased volumes due to
substantial remedial work at the
Craig Shaft and lower grades
• Lateral development continued
• C1 cost higher on lower production
volumes and lower by product
revenues
• Higher production volumes are
expected as remediation work is
completed in May 2013
• Diamond drilling on the lower
portion of the Morrison orebody
has re-commenced in Q2 2013
Outlook
