• Emerging economies have adopted emission control standards that mandate the use of
catalytic converters
• Advancing to a higher level of emission controls results in higher PGM loadings in the
catalytic converter
• Each time China increases to higher standard, it adds approximately 10% to the
loadings of palladium to autocatalysts
• Tightening emission control regulations for heavy-duty trucks
11
13. Use of Palladium in
CATALYTIC CONVERTERS
Gasoline Engines Hybrids & Other New Forms
• Use +90% palladium • Neutral impact on PGM use
• Gasoline hybrids tend to use as much palladium as
normal gasoline engines
Diesel Engines
• Currently account for only 1% of global cars sales1
• Historically used platinum due to
technical requirements • Forecasted to be 14% of overall market by 20202
• Now 25% palladium, with scope to
increase to 50% due to advent of Electric
low sulphur diesel fuel
• No requirement for catalytic converters
• Challenged by lack of infrastructure to recharge,
high costs, long charging periods and short driving
range
• Forecasted to account for only 2% of global car
sales by 20202

Palladium Mill Recovery 81% 80%
Cash Costs1 ($US/oz) $283 $450
Note: 2010 production consisted entirely of underground ore. Reduced 2011 head grade is due to
blending of lower grade surface stockpiles with higher grade underground ore. Surface stockpiles will
be exhausted at the end of 2011.
1. Total cash costs per ounce is a non-IFRS measure. For reconciliation of historical total cash costs per ounce to production
costs, please refer to the Company‟s financial statements. Cash costs per ounce are presented net of byproduct credits
and can be materially affected by changes in byproduct metal prices, as well as the Canadian/US dollar exchange rate.
17
19. 2012
MINING OPERATIONS
• Will consist entirely of underground production from three sources:
– Remaining Roby Zone ore (including potential extensions)
– Upper Offset Zone ore
– Development Offset Zone ore
• Head grades expected to average 5.5 - 6.0 g/t
• Detailed guidance for production and cash costs will be released in January
2012
• Cash costs per ounce are expected to be considerably lower than 2011 as
higher grade underground ore will not be diluted by blending lower grade
surface stockpiles

44. Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning
MINERAL RESERVES AND MINERAL RESOURCE
Mineral reserves and mineral resources have been calculated in accordance with National
Instrument 43-101 as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. For United States
reporting purposes, Industry Guide 7, (under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934), as
interpreted by Staff of the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC), applies different standards
in order to classify mineralization as a reserve. In addition, while the terms “measured”,
“indicated” and “inferred” mineral resources are required pursuant to National Instrument 43-
101, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize such terms. Canadian
standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC, and mineral resource
information contained herein is not comparable to similar information regarding mineral
reserves disclosed in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission. U.S. investors should understand that “inferred” mineral resources have a great
amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and
legal feasibility. In addition, U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of
NAP's mineral resources constitute or will be converted into reserves. For a more detailed
description of the key assumptions, parameters and methods used in calculating NAP‟s
mineral reserves and mineral resources, see NAP‟s most recent Annual Information Form/Form
40-F on file with Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities and the SEC.

2. CIM definitions were followed for the estimation of Mineral Reserves.
3. Mineral Reserves for the underground Roby Zone were estimated at a cut-off grade of 4.5 g/t Pd.
4. Metal price assumptions of US$375/oz palladium, US$1,500/oz platinum, US$900/oz gold,US$7.00/lb nickel, and
US$2.50/lb copper were used in the estimation of cut-off grade. A US$/C$ exchange rate of 1.11 was used.
5. Variable dilution has been applied according to anticipated over-break on footwall or hanging wall, and to
the location of stopes with respect to hanging wall structures that affect over-break.
6. Mining extraction for the crown pillar is 100%. For Roby Zone stopes, extraction is 95%.

NOTES:
1. Prepared by Jason Cox, P.Eng., Supervisor of Mine Engineering for URS/Scot Wilson, an independent Qualified Person within the meaning of NI 43-101.
2. CIM definitions were followed for the estimation of Mineral Resources.
3. Mineral Resources are inclusive of Mineral Reserves, which are contained in the Roby Zone underground mine.
4. Mineral Resource cut-off grades were estimated for a 14,000 tpd production scenario. Open pit and RGO stockpile resources are not economic at the current production rate.
5. Open Pit Mineral Resources were estimated at a pit discard cut-off grade of 1.8 g/t palladium equivalent (PdEq), within an optimized pit shell. Additional mineralization is present
outside of the pit shell.
6. Mineral Resources in stockpiles were estimated at a cut-off grade of 1.9 g/t PdEq.
7. Mineral Resources for the Roby Zone underground mine were estimated at a cut-off grade of 5.8 g/t PdEq. Resources include sill, rib, and crown pillars.
8. Mineral Resources for the underground Offset Zone were estimated at a cut-off grade of 4.0 g/t Pd (6.0 g/t PdEq).
9. PdEq factors were calculated separately for each area, based on operating cost and metallurgical performance estimates appropriate for those areas.
10. Metal price assumptions of US$350/oz palladium, US$1,400/oz platinum, US$850/oz gold, US$6.50/lb nickel, and US$2.00/lb copper were used in the estimation
of PdEq and cut-off grade. A US$/C$ exchange rate of 1.11 was used. For the Offset Zone, metal price basis is: US$400/oz Pd; US$1,400/oz Pt;US$1,000/oz Au; US$3.00/lb Cu;
US$8.50/lb Ni; US$20/lb Co. Exchange rate is 1.11 US$/C$.
11. Effective dates are variable for the various areas of Mineral Resources.
