EBITDA estimates include approximately $40 million of 2014 inventory expenses related to molybdenum inventory sold in 2015, which is net of third party molybdenum purchases and sales. EBITDA equals operating income excluding the deferred revenue from the Gold Stream Arrangement, depreciation, depletion and amortization, accretion expense and any asset impairments. Does not include any additional severance costs for Endako Mine. 2 EBITDA estimates in (1) above, were updated utilizing a foreign exchange rate of US$1.00 = C$1.25 $150 $180 $200 $220 Exchange Rate US$1.00 = C$1.15 Exchange Rate US$1.00 = C$1.25

32 Mount Milligan Secondary Crushing Circuit Management has determined that additional crushing capacity is necessary to reach 60,000 tpd on a consistent basis Due to current metal prices, construction of a secondary crushing circuit will not commence until market conditions improve During 2015, detailed engineering phase is expected to be completed and commitments are expected to be made for the long lead items Temporary crushing will be utilized during 2015 and management expects to reach throughput of approximately 60,000 tpd by year-end 2015 Once the secondary crushing circuit is installed and commissioned, design mill throughput is expected to increase to 62,500 tpd


 
33 Jacques Perron President, Chief Executive Officer and Director Closing Remarks


 
34 Key Messages Ended the year with approximately $266 million of cash Mount Milligan’s operating costs are positively impacted by current Canadian exchange rate; 90% of costs are in C$ 2015 production and unit cash cost guidance Unit cash cost of $0.60 to $0.85 per pound on a by-product basis, making Mount Milligan one of the world’s lowest-cost copper producers on a by- product basis 90 to 100 million pounds of copper 220,000 to 240,000 ounces of gold Secondary crushing circuit to be constructed at Mount Milligan once market conditions improve; with the utilization of temporary crusher we expect to reach 60,000 tpd by year-end 2015


 
35 Key Messages (continued) Current business strategy: Conduct our operations safely and in an environmentally responsible manner Achieve design recoveries and mill throughput at Mount Milligan Mine by the end of 2015, while containing costs Transition Langeloth into one of the largest third party molybdenum conversion plants in the world, which is expected to contribute to positive cash flow from our molybdenum business in 2015 Maintain the optionality of our molybdenum business Improve our balance sheet and our competitive position in the industry
