4. Overview
 Toledo Mining is focused on nickel
laterites in the Philippines
 Large, nickel resource base in 4 * TMC interest 56.1%
deposits on Palawan Island *
*
*
 Focused on ‘value add’
downstream processing
(TMC interest 52%)
 Supportive major shareholders
Sumitomo’s Coral Bay

5. Strategy
 Maintain Toledo’s substantial asset base and good standing with
local partners and government
 Negotiate binding agreements with third party investors and
consumers for value added processing
 Be ready to resume economic direct ore shipping (DOS) operations
to satisfy demand
 Ongoing drive to reduce operating and overhead expenses

6. The Philippines
 Proximity to Asian markets
 2004 marked clarity and legal certainty with the Mining Act
 2004 Minerals Action Plan
 2005 formation of the Minerals Development Council
 Foreign direct ownership of projects currently restricted to 40% of mining
operations and investments of less than US$50 million, but no limit on
economic ownership
 Palawan Island is stable & has history of mining and beneficiation, e.g.
Sumitomo’s Coral Bay nickel laterite HPAL plant
 Successful election of new President Noynoy Aquino, who is pro-mining

7. Berong Nickel Corporation (BNC)
 Current JORC resource of 10Mt @1.55% Ni (155,000t contained Ni)
sufficient to supply DOS operation for 15 years
 Exploration programme underway to prove up additional 30Mt – 40Mt
resource required to support 20,000tpa nickel processing operation
 DOS: suspended in 2009 due to market conditions, actively seeking long
term contracts
 Mining can recommence at short notice
 Ongoing discussions with potential strategic partners
 Metallurgical test work has confirmed Berong ore highly amenable to
leaching process

8. Berong Exploration Programme
• Exploration programme targeting increase in JORC resource to 40Mt
• Programme commenced late 2009, anticipated completion Q4 2010
• 20,000m drill programme with 6 rigs on site & mobilised
• Resource Upgrade due Q1 2011
• Drilling commenced in Parcel 4, the largest of 6 parcels granted under
the Exploration Permit
• Infill drilling in existing pit area: 54 holes drilled, possibility to drill more
holes once interpretation of 54 holes completed – this is expected to
increase the current reserve tonnage
 Long Point drilling to commence once Local Government (LG) approval is
received, which is anticipated Q3 2010
 Dangla drilling to commence once LG approval is received, which is
anticipated Q4 2010

15. Ipilan Nickel Corp (INC)
 Current JORC resource: 30.6Mt @ av. grade 1.36%
Ni at a 1% grade cut-off (416,000t contained nickel)
 Sufficient to support long life mining and processing
operation
 Potential to increase the size of the resource
 Recently obtained crucial municipality endorsement
for a mining operation
 This, along with endorsement of the four local
councils (barangay) demonstrates community
support for the project
 Final step in permitting is the endorsement of the
Palawan Provincial government and the Palawan Sumitomo’s Coral Bay
Council for Sustainable Development
 DOS operation could commence in 2011 if warranted
by market conditions
15

16. The DOS Market
 Chinese imports of nickel ore recovered in early 2010 BUT import demand now for 2 product groups:
 Iron substitute: high iron(>40%) / low nickel (<1%)
 Ferrous nickel production: high nickel (>2+%)
 Prices for traditional product (+/-1.5% Ni, 30% Fe) remain weak
 BUT evidence Japanese demand beginning to exert upward price pressure
1616

17. Moving Forward
 Complete exploration programme at Berong
 Complete permitting process at Ipilan
 Actively pursue DOS contracts - currently in negotiations with 2 major
nickel producers for long term nickel ore supply
 Reinvigorate discussions with strategic partners regarding value adding
 European Nickel, now merger with Rusina completed
 JXTC, now involved with financially strong partner Chinalco
