A mining and energy & power project portfolio supports the

company’s future growth.

In addition, the capacity of energy & power generation for its own

necessities is one of Volcan’s main advantages. Currently, it

generates 17% of its energy & power requirements; however, in

2012 it would generate approximately 50% and in 2016 it is

expected to approach 100%, reducing significantly the operative

costs.

The implementation of mining projects (expansions in current

operations, metallurgical projects and new projects) will generate a

significant production growth. In 2014, we expect Volcan to

increase its silver production in 55%; and in 2015, with Rondoni’s

project implementation it will increase its copper production in

900%.

Currently, Chungar's concentration plant operates 4,500 tons per day.

www.kallpasab.com 2

Main metals (silver and zinc) represented 90% and 87% of the company’s revenue in 2011 and Q2 2012,

respectively. In addition, copper and gold production represented 3% and 0% of the company’s income in

2011 and 3% and 0% in Q2 2012, respectively.

Actually, the production is carried out through its three Mining Units. However, Volcan has mining projects in progress

that will enter into production in the next 3 - 4 years.

Three expansion projects in mining units currently into production are being executed in order to expand the mineral

treatment capacity: Victoria & Andaychagua (Yauli) and Animon (Chungar). These projects will start up operations in late

2012 and involve a USD 15 million investment. Since 2011, an operating optimization process is being carried out in

Cerro de Pasco UEA, that conducted to an increase in treated mineral. The process target is to reinforce the

underground mine’s operations and the mining unit’s reorientation, turning it into Volcan’s main silver contributor with

the implementation of metallurgical projects. Currently, Cerro de Pasco UEA operates at 50% of its installed capacity, we

expect it to gradually reach 100% of its installed capacity by 2014.

Volcan’s Valuation

We value Volcan using the Discounted Cash Flow to the Firm methodology @ 9.0%. The valuation’s analysis period is

between 2012 and 2016, and then we assume a perpetual flow with a 2.5% constant growth rate. We value each single

UEA and mining project, without including exploration projects (blue sky ).

Volcan has a limited amount of reserves/resources (more than 37 years LOM in measured & indicated resources). We

assume a perpetuity since 2017 AS we believe Volcan has a high exploration potential in its UEAs, projects and

unexplored concessions. From a total of 315,000 hectares, Volcan only produces/explores in 75,000 hectares (24%). In

order to justify this potential, we include, within the perpetual flow, an exploration investment that will ensure the

production continuity.

Volcan is a poly – metallic mining company that produces the following metals: zinc, silver, lead, copper and gold in

minority. The fine concentrate production’s evolution in the last years is the following:

Status: Up to date, simultaneous metallurgical tests have been carried out in floatation/lixiviation plants with silver

recovery results of 60%; however, Volcan keeps on optimizing its metallurgical process then to continue with the

engineering that is necessary for the construction of a 4,000 TPD treatment plant. The start up of operations is

expected between 2014 – 2015.

c.1) Rondoni: It is a Volcan’s single copper project. It is located in the region of Huanuco and it has a mining site

with resources of 60MT @ 0.6% Cu, 0.14% Zn and 0.19 g/t Ag. It should be noted that Acejar project is located

2km from Rondoni, and it has shown similar geophysical anomalies.

b) Metallurgical projects which aim the recovering of metallic content (silver and gold) with mineral treatment through

floatation/leaching processes. The Silver Oxides and Silver Pyrites projects belong to Cerro de Pasco UEA.

b.1) Silver Oxides: Cerro de Pasco UEA has 8.9MT oxidized mineral with silver and gold content in stockpiles

(3.5MT @ 7.7 g/t Ag and 0.1 g/t Au) and, additionally, 5.4MT @ 4.4 g/t Ag and 1.40 g/t Au in southern of Raul Rojas

open pit. These minerals would be processed in a leaching plant (cyanide) with a 2,500 TPD treatment capacity,

expandable to 4,000 TPD in order to obtain silver and gold fine concentrates.

Status: It has an approved Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). Volcan expects the granting of final permits in

order to start up its construction and subsequent start up of operations in Q2 2013.

b.2) Silver Pyrites: Explotation works in Raul Rojas mine caused the accumulation of pyrite – silica stockpiles with a

high silver content associated with the mine stripping. The stockpiles represent 20.4MT @ 5.4 g/t Ag in resources.

Chungar plant’s expansion will increase the treatment capacity in 25% from 4,200 to 5,200 TPD with a start up of

operations expected in November 2012. Volcan estimates that this will contribute to increase the silver annual production

by 1.5 – 2.0M Oz. Ag, contributing with 10% of the total production and decreasing the UEA’s operating cost in 15%.

a) Expansion projects in current operations, that aim to increase plant treatment capacity (Victoria, Andaychagua and

Chungar), projects that were previously explained.

Update

Currently, Volcan has four kinds of projects:

Expected production: 3 - 5M Oz Ag (10 years LOM) + gold content.

Expected production: 4 - 6M Oz Ag.

c) New mining projects: Rondoni and Alpamarca/Pallanga River

Status: Currently, Volcan is in the process of defining the resources (drilling campaigns) necessary to determine the

mineralization continuity for which it has estimated a USD 27 million investment in 2012. In addition, it is developing

the project’s pre – feasibility study with AMEC and subsequently submitting the EIA to Ministerio de Energia y Minas

(Ministry of Energy & Mining). Volcan expects Rondoni’s start up of operations in 2015.

c.2) Alpamarca / Rio Pallanga: The mining site is composed by poly – metallic veins (lead, zinc, silver and copper)

which together represent 2.6MT @ 0.11% Cu, 1.44% Pb, 1.8% Zn and 3.75 g/t Ag in measured & indicated resources.

Status: In 2011, Management decided to retake operations in the UEA with the implementation of Alpamarca project.

Its development involves the construction of a 2,000 – 3,000 TPD concentration plant to be fed by Rio Pallanga

underground mine (500 TPD) and Alpamarca open pit (1,500 TPD). The project counts with a feasibility study, and

approved EIA and agreements with the communities. Volcan expects the start up of operations in mid 2013.

d) Exploration projects: San Sebastian, Palma, Zoraida, Vinchos, Shalca, Carhuacayan, Ticlio Norte, El Muqui, among

others, which represent a potential blue – sky in our valuation.

2010 2011 2012e 2013e 2014e 2015e

Expected production: 40 - 50K MT Cu. Our estimation for Rondoni’s production is more conservative and it ranges

Volcan’s production costs differ in accordance to each UEA. As of Q2 2012, the consolidated cost reached USD/MT 55.4

(+12.7% YoY) versus the USD/MT 52.8 reached in 2011 (+4.92%).

Mining industry has registered a cost inflation as a consequence of the increase in labor costs, supplies/provisions

(energy), social and security costs, among others. Particularly, the Peruvian mining industry has suffered the effect of the

revaluation of PEN versus USD, since most of the costs are expressed in local currency. According to Volcan, in 2011

the mining industry inflation regionally reached 18% to 23%. The operating costs by UEA are the following:

For the first five years within the valuation horizon (2012 – 2016), we use Bloomberg’s consensus prices; however, for

the next years (long – term or perpetual flow) we incorporate an additional 15% discount, applied over metal quotations in

the last year within the analysis period previously mentioned.

The following table shows our investment estimations (CAPEX) for the next years that include: a) mining projects and b)

energy & power projects. It should be noted that, within our valuation, we include a long – term investment component

(perpetuity) that will support future production and a 2.5% perpetual flow growth.

In line with the above, we estimate a 10% average cost inflation for 2012 – 2016; however, we believe that this will be

partially offset with the cost decrease as a consequence of the concentration plant’s expansions (specially in Chungar)

and, basically, with the energy & power projects’ implementation (hydroelectric stations). As of Q2 2012, 17% of its

energy & power needs is auto generated by Volcan; however, the implementation of Baños V, Chancay and Belo

Horizonte will generate 50% of the energy in late 2012 and 100% towards 2016, being this an important saving for the

UEAs. It should be noted that 8% of the operating costs are related to energy & power consumption.

We sensitize this 15% discount applied to long – term metal prices (zinc, lead, copper and silver) in order to reflect the

potential effect of variations in long – term prices in our fair value per VOLCAB1 share. This discount applies to all metal

prices equally.

8.99%

For the calculation of VOLCABC1 and VOLCAAC1’s fair value per share, we calculate the weighting of each share class

in the equity without taking into account shares in treasury. Currently, the equity attributable to class A and class B

represent 37.2% and 62.8%, respectively. We assume an additional 15% premium in class A’s nominal value by effect of

the voting rights and we recalculate the weighting of Volcan’s equity: class A (42.78%) and class B (57.22%). Thus, after

redistributing the equity’s fair value when following the new weightings, class A and class B share’s fair value are PEN

4.19 and PEN 3.32, respectively.

Volcan’s equity is represented by class A common shares (1.36 million) and class B common shares (2.04 million), both

with a nominal value of PEN 1.0. Class A shares have voting rights; while class B shares have only dividends rights.

In addition, approximately 155.30 million class A shares belong to Empresa Minera Paragsha SAC, Empresa

Administradora Chungar SAC and Compañia Minera Alpamarca SAC subsidiaries.

In the following analysis, we carry out our fair value’s sensitivity analysis taking into account changes in long – term

metal prices and in the discount rate (WACC).

As previously mentioned, our vector of prices uses Bloomberg consensus prices during the first five years of the

valuation horizon (2012 – 2016); however, for the following years (long – term or perpetual flow) we incorporate a 15%

additional discount applied over price estimations in the last year within the analysis period previously mentioned.
