Gold equivalent used in this presentation is estimated using 2011 PA Base Case of $1000/oz. Au, $16/oz. Silver and $2.75 Cu metal prices: (Ag oz.* $16)/$1000 = gold oz., (Cu lbs* $2.75)/$1000 = gold oz. It must be noted that the ounces gold equivalent does not represent actual ounces of gold in the mine plan, but rather their calculated equivalent value.
