Technical Question?, page-4

Here are some comments I made previously on the Zn at Southern Nights/Wagga Tank that might help.

I don’t really have much to add at this stage.

As far as SFR goes the bornite zone at Monty, which is in the primary ore has been touted as a potential area of DSO mining in company presentations. Grades in drill intersections there are as high as 36% Cu and they have broad widths in drill intersections as wide as 25.8m at 24.1% Cu. Silly idiots for selling this to SFR.

Below also attached is an SFR presenatation from Nov 2011 showing the supergene chalcocite zone at DeGrussa which at the time had an indicated resource of 250,000t at 17.6%Cu and 2.6g/t gold. The DSO resource from this zone at the time (I don’t know how much was eventually mined and shipped) was 140,000t at 25.6% Cu and 2.5g/t gold.

So as a general answer based on those examples circa 25% Cu seems to work but it would depend on a number of other factors in relation to the overall mine plan for the main deposit. Esh
