11 June 2011
Processed in total approximately 170,000 tonnes of ROM coal in June 2011

CHPP – 5Mtpa Operation Commencement
As of 30 June 2011, the 2nd Phase CHPP construction work was 62% completed and operational
commissioning is expected to start in November 2011
The 3rd Phase of CHPP construction work will begin in H2 2011 and the completion is expected by
the end of 2012
11
CHPP – 10Mtpa Capacity Expansion
The temporary suspension of all coal hauling on the road from the Tavan Tolgoi area to TKH for 23 days in
April-May 2011 and also fuel supply shortages affected the performance of some transportation contractors
in May-June 2011. As the Group maintained its mining operations as scheduled, this resulted in the
increased inventory at UHG mine in addition to the Group’s intention to build up approximately four weeks
ROM coal production tonnage as in-feed coal stockpile to support continuity of our CHPP operations.

China imported 19.15Mt of coking coal in 2011 H1 compared to 22.36Mt in 2010 H1 Mongolian share by volume in total Chinese coking coal import increased to approximately 41.2% in 2011 H1
compared to 31.8% in 2010 and 11.6% in 2009, respectively Flooding in Queensland/Australia caused supply shortage, which drove up coal prices in the seaborne market,
thus limiting the “appetite” of Chinese consumers for imported coking coal

The Government of Mongolia (GoM) has implemented a series of policies to further promote the growth of the mining and minerals processing industry in the country aiming to encourage value-added production.
Progressive Royalty
Effective from 1 January 2011, the amendment to the 2006 Minerals Law introduced progressive surtax royaltyrate in addition to the previous flat-rate royalty at 5%. The royalty rate payable under the Minerals Law will beincreased if the market price for the mineral in question reaches certain threshold. Besides the market price,level of the proposed progressive royalty will also depend on the level of processing of the minerals. Forexample, for raw coal, depending on the market price, the additional progressive royalty rate could vary in rangeof 1% to 5%, making the possible highest royalty rate at 10%. For processed coal this range is 1% to 3%,making the highest royalty at 8%.
VAT recoverability
On 21 July 2009, the Parliament of Mongolia has passed an Amendment to the Law on VAT of Mongolia,pursuant to which only exported “processed mineral products” become subject to “0” rate VAT. The actual listof so-called processed mineral products was approved by GoM in November 2010, making effective thedistinction between raw coal and wet processed (washed) coal .

Major Accomplishments in H1 2011
In June 2011, we successfully accomplished acquisition of entire issued share capital of QGX Coal Limited
(renamed to Baruun Naran Ltd), which was holding the mining license for BN coking coal deposit through its
wholly-owned subsidiary
UHG Mine ROM coal production reached 2.5Mt as scheduled
CHPP module I construction completed, commissioned by relevant authorities and started commercial
operations in June 2011
First batches of washed hard coking coal product delivered to customers in PRC, achieving pricing at GM
1,000 RMB/tonne (approximately 155 USD/tonne)
Milestones
29
Operational Objectives in H2 2011
Execute 7.0Mt ROM coal production annual target for UHG mine
Complete UHG – GS paved road construction and commissioning work in September 2011 together with
border-crossing capacity expansion by adding eight passing lines
Continue with processing capacity expansion and by completion of CHPP module II in Q4 2011, the Group’s
processing capacity projected to reach 10Mtpa
Increase the proportion of washed hard coking coal sales volume, aiming to sell only processed coal starting
from 2012. This will enable the Group to fully enjoy benefits of favorable royalty and VAT related regulations
set by the Mongolian government
Commissioning of BN mine by relevant authorities in Q4 2011
Strengthen strategic long-term relations with end-user customer base in PRC and at the same time continue to
explore for seaborne market access opportunities
