Vastly improved mill performance – Q1/Q2 2009 production 88,026 oz Au at US$351/oz Au, on throughput of 1,139,000 tonnes ‐ An historical best for all categories for 6 months
Scoping Study showed positive expansion economics. Feasibility Study initiated to confirm viability of a significant expansion of the Choco Mill to 558k oz Au/yr 2012
Positive turn‐around in mill performance the culmination of improved haulage availabilities, mill availabilities, restructured haulage contract and a new kiln and carbon recovery system
Collective agreement with the unions established – Workers and Ministry pleased
14,500 oz per month target run‐rate achieved
Development HighlightsIncreible 6

Engineering completed for roads, waste dumps, and pit designs
New road construction connecting Increible 6 to Choco 10 completed
Mine permitting nearing completion
Material to be trucked to Choco 10, 8 km away, for processing
Gold production from surface oxides at Increible 6 during the 2nd half of 2009expected to add 1‐2 k oz Au/month until expansion at Choco Mill completed

Increible 6
Feasibility Initiated to Advance PreliminaryAssessment of Choco 10 and Increible 6
Preliminary Assessment (scoping study) completed by Micon International limited June 2009. The Assessment demonstrated positive economics on production of over 500,000 oz Au/yr at Choco 10, using a gold price of $700/oz Au
The most robust financial outcome of the PA is derived from combining existing hard‐rock milling capacity with a new 15,000 t/d mill, for a total

capacity of 20,000 t/d
Gold production at the expanded mine and mill is forecast to reach a max of 717,300 oz Au in Yr 10 with an average rate of 558,200 oz Au/yr over the 12 year LOM. LOM cash cost estimate US$331/oz
Capex costs estimated at US$208.5 million plus contingencies of US$30.8 million and sustaining capital of US$80.3 million LOM

Underlying reason Choco was purchased was the production growth potential from 100,000 oz Au/yr to more than 500,000 oz Au/yr near term

Economic Sensitivity to Gold Price*
At US$700 gold, payback is estimated at 2.1 years (discounted at 8%) on a LOM of 12 years
US$700 gold the PA estimates a LOM net revenue of US$3.77 billion and an average annual after tax cash flow of US$77 million

* In the PA the forecast gold price is quoted net of applicable taxes
Rusoro’s power and fuel costs are arguably the lowest in the world at $0.026/kWhr and $0.01/gal for gas or diesel
At a gold price of US$700/oz, the PA estimates the NPV (8%) to be US$449.7 million and an after‐tax IRR of 51.7%. Using US$850/oz, the project generates an NPV (8%) of US$ 741.9 million and an after‐tax IRR of 120.7%
