About CSL

About 70 bulkers and Transhippers
CSL AFRICA
●
• 100 years old in 2013
• HQ in Montreal, Canada
• Handles approx 100 million tons bulk cargo annually
• Designs, builds, owns and operates maritime bulk material handling assets
• Global presence with operations in Asia, Australia, the Americas, Europe and Africa
Why Transhipment in West Africa(and therefore, why not big ports)
4
Oceanic Bathymetry
Few Natural deep water ports
But typically -25m found 5-10 nm from shore
Fragmented nature of mining developments
along coast prevents volume consolidation in
“mega-ports”
National borders, natural topography barriers,
long, uneven ramp up by neighbor projects
Uncertainty
Volume ramp-up, Price, Sovereign issues
Capital preservation
Lead time – Investment Decision to First Ore
Why TranshipmentSmall Port Development
5
A suitable strip of coastal land
Build a stock pile pad, or load direct from a rail car dumper
Construct a jetty
Add a conveyor and ship-loader …
Out to Depth of 5.0m
Why TranshipmentBig Vs. Smaller ships to China

Why Transhipment Cost and Lead Time
7
Transhipment Cost/Ton< $3.00
• An appropriately scaled system with a reasonable utilization (70-80%)
• High fixed / Low variable cost = utilization critical
• Distance, TSV size and load rate = obvious impact
Lead Time27 Months
• Shipyard selection/Class approval = 4 months
• Construction + trials = 21 months
• Positioning Voyage + On site commissioning = 2 months

Transhipment SolutionsWhich solution is right for you?
Iron ore in Whyalla – Gravity based SUL barge Iron ore in Whyalla – Gravity based TSV
Iron ore in West Africa – Gravity based SULVessel
Crane Based Storage Transhipper
Transhipment Solutions Approach

High Volume Systems
Gravity based
Reliable Built-for-Purpose solutions
“Incremental Engineering” around proven solution – No prototyping
Focus on safety/environment

Transhipment EvolutionGeneration Change
Iron ore in Whyalla – 1st Generation Iron ore in Whyalla – 2nd Generation
Interim Solutions – Iron Ore West Africa High Capacity TSV – 3rd Generation (?)
12
Transhipment Evolution
“Interim Solutions” – Existing Gravity Self-Unloaders
“Lakers” – topping off capes for export “Lakers ” – blending off-shore
“CSL Atlas” - transhipping Iron ore in Liberia “CSL Spirit” - transhipping Iron ore in Canada
Transhipment Evolution“1st Generation” – Project Specific Solution
