SUMMARY OVERVIEW We are the largest lead and zinc pure mining company in Yunnan Province in terms of resources with abundant and high-grade silver reserves, according to the Hatch Report. We will also be the first non-ferrous metal pure mining company(1) listed on the Stock Exchange. As a pure mining company, we only conduct upstream operations in exploration, mining and primary processing of mineral resources with no downstream operations in smelting and refining. We currently own and operate a large-scale, high-grade lead-zinc-silver polymetallic mine in Yunnan Province, the Shizishan Mine, which contains abundant and high-grade silver reserves. The mining permit for the Shizishan Mine has a term of 15 years ending in April 2026 and covers an area of 3.20 sq. km. We are currently at the commercial production stage of the Shizishan Mine with a current mining capacity of 700 tpd. We started trial production at the Shizishan Mine at the end of July 2011 and commenced commercial production in October 2011. Based on the JORC ore reserves of 8,024,000 tonnes at the Shizishan Mine and our current estimated production level of 48 ktpa (350 tpd) in 2011, 419 ktpa (1,270 tpd) in 2012, and 660 ktpa (2,000 tpd) from 2013 and onwards, the ore reserves at the Shizishan Mine are estimated to support approximately 12.5 years of mine operation. We also own an exploration permit to the Dazhupeng Mine, a lead-zinc-silver polymetallic mine in Yunnan Province. We have not obtained a mining permit for the Dazhupeng Mine and may not conduct mining activities at the Dazhupeng Mine at this stage. In line with our vision to be a leading non-ferrous metal pure mining company in China and in order to leverage on our transferable experience and skills of processing lead-zinc-silver ore, we have also secured exclusive long-term, low-cost polymetallic tungsten-tin raw ore supply from the Lushan Mine, a tungsten-tin polymetallic mine in Yunnan Province.
