Millennium Minerals Limited's core purpose is to create a profitable mid-tier gold producing company generating value for shareholders whilst continually seeking additional opportunities to increase shareholder value through further development of organic growth opportunities.

GOLD OPERATIONS

Results from the recently completed feasibility study indicate the following operational and financial metrics.
- Stage 1 Mining Ore Reserve of 10.45 Mt at 1.7g/t containing 567,000 ounces, using a cut-off grade of 0.5g/t.
- Initial mine life of 7 years, producing 504,000 ounces from CIL process plant.
- Process Plant and Infrastructure development capital cost $63 million.
- Owners cost $6.3 million, rehabilitation and closure $8 million (deferred).
- Native Title completed, final permitting largely complete.
- Inferred resource areas and depth extensions provide upside.
- Stage 2 scoping study to evaluate heap leach production from year 3.

OPERATIONAL STRATEGY
Mine design and scheduling is driven by a desire to maximise gold production in the first four years of the project life. The base case plan shows milling throughput rates of 1.50Mt per annum generating 72,000 ounces of gold.

The production plan recognises that upside exists in bringing other Inferred Mineral resources into the Measured and Indicated categories, allowing the capacity for Reserve status assessment and the additional potential to exploit mineralised waste and other material through a lower cost heap leach operation.

In addition, depth and strike extension potential exists that will require further exploration to define. These upside factors require assessment, and if their potential is realised, brought into the project well before Year 4 with the potential of producing an increase in gold output.
