1 Copper Bay Limited Presentation March 2014

2 Copper Bay Limited – Investor Presentation – March 2014 2 Overview  A Chilean-focused resources company  Holds exploitation licences and have applied for maritime concessions covering 15.25sqkm at Chañaral Bay where at least 116 million tonnes of copper tailings have been deposited on the beach.  Copper Bay Limited plans to remove the copper from the tailings and therefore substantially reduce the toxic nature of this material.  It is hoped that the revenue from the sale of the copper that is removed from the tailings will pay for the whole operation at Chañaral and reward our backers with a return on their investment.  Economic value will be added to the natural and social environment by detoxifying the existing beach in Chañaral  Because of the low grade of the tailings as compared with conventional copper projects our strategy is focussed on low operating and capital costs.  Planned production is in 3 years from now
