Brownfield programme delivering high value additions
Significant discovery of Pablo vein
• Wide, high grade vein discovered at 100% owned mine
• Impressive width of 12.6m - low cost production
• 2,000 tpd of spare plant capacity available―Pablo increases throughput to 2,000-2,200 tpd
• Low capex requirements: <1km from existing developments
• Adjusted mine plan to transition to Pablo later in 2016
• $64m NAV at spot prices
• 2016: 5,500m drilling programme on Pablo/Yurika veins

LONG EXPERIENCE IN KEY MINING JURISDICTIONS IN THE AMERICAS
Argentina: transforming cashflow potential
15
• One of the key mining jurisdictions in Americas
• Competitive advantage from Hochschild’s Southern Peru Cluster
• Positive effects from ongoing Sol devaluation on operating costs
• Strong Peruvian government support for mining
• National election presidential run-off due in June 2016 – both candidates expected to be pro-business
Positive Peruvian environment
• Peso devaluation ― Approximately 40% in Dec 2015― 70% of operating costs incurred in pesos― Material impact on cost position
• Port rebate― Rebate from exports thru Patagonian ports restored Nov 2015― ≈ 9% FOB value of exports: ≈ $15 million p.a. for HOC
• Tax Elimination― 10% export taxes on conc sales eliminated as of 12 Feb ≈$8-10m p.a.
benefit (50% production) ― 5% export taxes on dore sales also eliminated ≈$4-5m p.a. ― Regional 1% tax on reserves eliminated
