The production target underpinning the forecast financial information is contained in the graphs on slide 23 and is based on utilisation of 100% of the Cadia East Ore Reserves. Refer to slides 41 and 42 for
the Cadia East Ore Reserves as at 31 December 2018 but note that such figures are subject to depletions for the period from 1 January 2019.
Processing volumes are expected to progressively ramp up to be in the range of 33-35mtpa, subject to ore presentation from the mine which will vary over time according to draw rates, cave
maturity and cave interaction as further caves are developed. For financial evaluation purposes, the projected mine and processing volumes post completion of the expansion are shown at
the midpoint of this 33-35mtpa range.
