Southdown Magnetite Project PFS HighlightsgWhy is this project different to other <strong>magnetite</strong> projectsbeing built?• <strong>Grange</strong>’s extensive operating experience and existing IPdramatically reduces execution risk,• The project is well advanced:‣ Major permits for the mine and port are in place;‣ Land tenure is largely secure;‣ Metallurgical test work is well advanced;‣ Power line easements are established and permitted;May 2011 Slide 26


An Opportunity for WAThe Southdown Magnetite Project will delivera new long-term industry for Western Australiaand the Great Southern Region.It will improve local infrastructure,create regional employmentand further develop the City of Albanyas a regional economic centre.May 2011 Slide 27


Positive Outcomes for WA• A new industry in southern Western Australia• State Royalties of ~$50M per annum• State taxes ~ $5M per annum• Port enhancements secure Albany as a commercial port• Better infrastructure for water & power• Partnerships that benefit the State & region• training• community – non FIFO• tourism• environmental eg Commersonia speciesMay 2011 Slide 28
