Romero P.J. Hayes Operations Manager Managing Director Geostats Laboratory Survey April 2013 Prepared for Zarazma Minerals Studies Company Confidential THIS IS A CONFIDENTIAL DOCUMENT BETWEEN GEOSTATS PTY LTD, CLIENT MINING HOUSES AND CLIENT ANALYTICAL COMPANIES. THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD NOT BE CIRCULATED OUTSIDE THE COMPANY WHOSE NAME APPEARS ON THE COVER. To the reader, This survey of laboratories undertaken by Geostats is performed as a service to both the Mining Industry and the Analytical Industry. It is envisaged that it can be used as a tool for the maintenance of high standards in both industries. The report to the Mining Houses identifies most commercial laboratories and should be treated as confidential information. Some commercial facilities prefer to pay for the inclusion of their sites and these are not identified to the Mining Houses. This report should not be circulated outside of the Client Company or reproduced for the benefit of other mining groups. It is not the intent of this survey to provide marketing tools for the analytical industry. A laboratory report is available which identifies only the laboratory or group requesting the report. This allows the laboratory to assess their performance in relation to the rest of the analytical industry. All the laboratories identified have taken advantage of this report and included it as part of their ongoing quality control procedures. Participation in these surveys is an indication of the laboratory's interest in quality and should be regarded as a positive sign regardless of the outcome. Many thanks to both the laboratories and the Mining Houses for their ongoing support of this survey.
