#1NEWCREST MINING LIMITED Cadia New South Wales, Australia 18 November 2019#2Disclaimer Forward Looking Statements This presentation includes forward looking statements. Forward looking statements can generally be identified by the use of words such as "may", "will", "expect", "intend", "plan", "estimate", "anticipate", "continue", "outlook" and "guidance", or other similar words and may include, without limitation, statements regarding plans, strategies and objectives of management, anticipated production or construction commencement dates and expected costs or production outputs. The Company continues to distinguish between outlook and guidance. Guidance statements relate to the current financial year. Outlook statements relate to years subsequent to the current financial year. Forward looking statements inherently involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the Company's actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from statements in this presentation. Relevant factors may include, but are not limited to, changes in commodity prices, foreign exchange fluctuations and general economic conditions, increased costs and demand for production inputs, the speculative nature of exploration and project development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licences and permits and diminishing quantities or grades of reserves, political and social risks, changes to the regulatory framework within which the Company operates or may in the future operate, environmental conditions including extreme weather conditions, recruitment and retention of personnel, industrial relations issues and litigation. Forward looking statements are based on the Company's good faith assumptions as to the financial, market, regulatory and other relevant environments that will exist and affect the Company's business and operations in the future. The Company does not give any assurance that the assumptions will prove to be correct. There may be other factors that could cause actual results or events not to be as anticipated, and many events are beyond the reasonable control of the Company. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward looking statements. Forward looking statements in these materials speak only at the date of issue. Except as required by applicable laws or regulations, the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any of the forward looking statements or to advise of any change in assumptions on which any such statement is based. Competent Person's Statement The information in this presentation that relates to Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves has been extracted from the release titled "Annual Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves Statement -31 December 2018" dated 14 February 2019 (the original release). Newcrest confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original release and, in the case of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves, that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the original release continue to apply and have not materially changed. Newcrest confirms that the form and context in which the competent person's findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original release. Non-IFRS Financial Information Newcrest results are reported under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) including EBIT and EBITDA.

Significant projects in the period include projects to facilitate mining of Kapit ore-body, throughput and recovery related projects at Lihir. Depreciation and amortisation of mine site assets is determined on the basis of the lesser of the asset's useful economic life and the life of the mine. Life-of-mine assets are depreciated according to units of production and the remainder on a straight line basis. Depreciation and amortisation does not form part of All-In Sustaining Cost or All-in Cost with the exception of amortisation on reclamation and remediation (rehabilitation) assets. 19#65Biannual Shut Strategy being formulated Vision "To develop, implement and sustain an optimal comprehensive shutdown strategy that maximises plant uptime and provides operational stability at the lowest cost without negatively impacting on workplace safety or asset integrity." Current Shutdown Delivery Approximately 34 weeks in a year have a major shutdown event within the Lihir Process Plant, this includes Mills, Crushers, Autoclaves etc. Opportunity - FY21 Aug/Feb Improved alignment of maintenance shutdowns in the grinding and autoclave areas has potential to improve both plant uptime and recovery. A lower frequency of major shutdowns has benefits both in terms of operational stability and improved maintenance work management.
