Paterson Copper Projects
This portfolio of copper projects comprises the Nifty Copper Mine, Maroochydore Copper Project and
Paterson Exploration Project.
The Nifty Copper Mine (“Nifty”) is located on the western edge of the Great Sandy Desert in the northeastern Pilbara region of Western Australia, approximately 330km southeast of Port Hedland. Nifty
contains a 2012 JORC Mineral Resource of 940,200 tonnes of contained copper i. Cyprium is focussed on
a business plan to develop a large open pit mine. Initially to provide ore to an existing heap leach SX-EW
operation and to retreat the current heap leach pads. The restart of the existing copper concentrator to
treat open pit sulphide material will commence once technical studies and approvals have been obtained
for the larger operating footprint expected within 4 years. Combined target production rate is 65,000
tonnes of copper in cathode and concentrate.
The Maroochydore deposit is located ~85km southeast of Nifty and includes a shallow 2012 JORC Mineral
Resource of 486,000 tonnes of contained copper ii. Cyprium will commence a scoping studies targeting
development of a +10 year 20,000 to 30,000 tonne per year copper metal producing leach-SXEW operation
to commence once Nifty is fully developed and achieves stable profitable production.
An exploration earn-in joint venture has been entered into with IGO Limited on ~2,400km2 of the Paterson
Exploration Project. Under the agreement, IGO is to sole fund $32 million of exploration activities over 6.5
years to earn a 70% interest in the Paterson Exploration Project, including a minimum expenditure of $11
million over the first 3.5 years. Upon earning a 70% interest, the Joint Venture will form and IGO will freecarry Paterson Copper to the completion of a pre-feasibility study (PFS) on a new mineral discovery.

the Murchison District of Western Australia, within mining lease M51/887, includes the Nanadie Well
Copper-Gold Mineral Resources of 162,000 tonnes contained copper iv, which is open at depth and along
strike to the north. Exploration will continue to define the scale and potential of this large prospective
muti element geological footprint.

at the Cue Copper-Gold Project, which is located ~20km to the east of Cue and includes the Hollandaire
Copper-Gold Mineral Resources of 51,500 tonnes contained copper iii.
Nanadie Well and Cue Copper-Gold projects are included in an ongoing scoping study, to determine the
parameters required to develop a copper project in the region which will determine optimal resource
development and exploration work going forward.
