Taylor Collison Limited 19 December 2013 Iron Road Limited Page 3 of 18 Company Overview Iron Road Limited (“Iron Road” or “The Company”) is an ASX listed resource company with a focus on magnetite gneiss iron ore deposits in South Australia. Iron Road’s flagship project is the Central Eyre Iron Project (“CEIP”) which is located on the Eyre Peninsula, ~330km NW of Adelaide near the regional town of Wudinna (Fig. 1). The Definitive Feasibility Study currently underway on the CEIP is evaluating the development of a large-scale mine and ore treatment facility augmented by scalable rail and export facilities. The CEIP has a JORC compliant Total Mineral Resource of 3.7Bt @ 16% Fe, including 2.7Bt in the Measured and Indicated Resource categories. Mineralisation is coarse-grained, shallow, continuous and compositionally consistent over more than 6km of strike length. This makes it amenable to large-scale, open pit mining methods. The existing Mineral Resource defined for the CEIP offers the potential for an operating mine life in excess of 30 years. There is ample scope to increase the potential mine life as the Company has identified a conceptual exploration target of 8–17Bt at 14–20% Fe of magnetite gneiss. Iron Road has determined that treatment of the magnetite gneiss ore by conventional crushing, milling and magnetic separation can produce a premium magnetite concentrate containing ~67% Fe at the relatively coarse grainsize of -106µm (p80). The Company is also assessing the potential to incorporate a gravity circuit into the processing facilities after the rough magnetic separation stage. This would separate relatively coarse (up to -200µm) iron ore prior to finer grinding and final magnetic separation. Such a process has the potential to reduce the volume of material passing through the entire processing facilities with flow-on benefits including reductions in power consumption and infrastructure requirements. In addition, the average grain size of the concentrate could increase to >-130µm (p80) which increases the marketability of the CEIP product. Marketing studies have indicated the CEIP product can be used as a high quality blending feedstock to the international sinter market which feeds the majority of blast furnaces. The Company is currently finalising the Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”) for the CEIP in which it is assessing the production of 20Mtpa of magnetite concentrate, up from 12.4Mtpa being assessed in the Prefeasibility Study. Final capital expenditure (“Capex”) estimates for all aspects of the project will be detailed in the DFS. The Company has indicated that estimates on operating expenditure (“Opex”) will be similar to that in the PFS, at A$59/t FOB. This places the CEIP in a competitive position in the second quartile of the price adjusted CFR China cost curve. An important aspect of the DFS is the infrastructure component of the project which includes scalable rail and Capesize capable port facilities. The DFS is assessing a capacity of 30Mtpa for these facilities but they will be designed to be able to be expanded up to 90Mtpa. This is a critical aspect of the CEIP as it allows the owners of the rail and port to benefit from servicing other primary producers in the region. There is also potential to tap into the existing Trans-Australian railway network which would allow ~25% of Australia’s land mass access to the port. Preliminary DCF modelling of the 20Mtpa CEIP, assuming full ownership, mine life of 30 years, Capex of A$4.5b, a long-term 67% Fe iron ore price of US$105/t

    ELECTRANET PTY LTD EYRE PENINSULA ANALYSIS WS:ANZ_Active:41075381:v1 08 June 2018 Mr. Brad Parker ElectraNet Pty Ltd 52-55 East Terrace Adelaide, SA 5000 AUSTRALIA Dear Mr. Parker, RE: Eyre Peninsula Analysis AME Consulting Pty Ltd (“AME”) has been engaged by ElectraNet Pty Ltd (“ElectraNet”, or the “Client”) to assess the Iron Ore projects on the Eyre Peninsula and discuss the likelihood of the projects commencing over the next 20 years (the “Report”). We understand and acknowledge that ElectraNet will use this report, in whole or part, with their advisors, on their planning report for network upgrades on the Eyre Peninsula. Production and Cost Analysis Available data varies greatly between operations and projects. Much information is not reliable due to language difficulties, the confidential nature of the information, the inability to estimate the reliability of AME’s sources and general lack of data. Consequently, much information has to be estimated and the quality, accuracy and completeness of the resulting cost comparisons will reflect this and cannot be guaranteed. Furthermore, forecast costs embody a number of significant assumptions with respect to exchange rates and other technical variables. Because of these factors, direct comparability between individual projects may be limited and, as such, our supply and cost estimates must be treated with caution and cannot be relied upon. Supply/Demand Analysis In addition, AME has supplied tables of historical data and estimated future supply, demand and market trends by compiling, interpreting and analysing engineering, supply, economic, statistical and technical information from many third-party sources. Such company and country statistics usually contain inconsistencies and utilise sampling data techniques and, thus, should not be relied upon.

  • The ISA Discussion Paper (DP) Identifies The
    The ISA Discussion Paper (DP) identifies the following four projects within the Eyre & Western Region as priorities ‐• 6‐Star $500m International Holiday Resort • Competitive Export Pathways for Primary Industries • Super School in Whyalla Education & Training Precinct • Energy Transmission and Generation on EP. This information is sourced (acknowledged) from the RDSA Infrastructure Priorities Report. The priorities require updating to reflect changes since the report was published and the report, within the context of this region and ISA’s objectives, requires a broader perspective. For instance RDAWEP has successfully supported and advocated for; the $100m Super School (due for completion in 2021) and has broadened the agenda to advocate for an integrated Education and Innovation Precinct (EIP) an $280m upgrade of the energy transmission network (Electranet due to commence construction in 2020) and is progressing various energy generation projects across the region – however the planned transmission upgrade will be at maximum capacity when completed and therefore requires greater capacity than is planned Competitive Export Pathways for Primary Industries which is a catch‐all for the ports of Thevenard, Port Lincoln, Lucky Bay, Whyalla, approved port at Cape Hardy together with bulk handling, storage and transport network efficiencies, including road & rail, for agriculture, mining and processing – this catch‐all represents many projects that drives efficiency, enhances global competitiveness and collectively exceeds $1bn, ranging from maintenance and enhancement of existing assets (i.e. dredging Thevenard) to building new Infrastructure (i.e. Cape Hardy Port and connection to national rail grid) Early high level master planning, identification of key stakeholders, location & land acquisition and potential partners for a multi experience International Resort.
