INNISFAIL CELEBRATES FOUR YEARS LOST TIME INJURY FREE
The past 12 months has been a difficult period for Bradken as we continue to weather the challenging market conditions throughout the global mining and industrial markets. We have been forced to make many tough decisions based on the current subdued market activity and while some of the decisions we have had to make were not always optimal, each decision taken was based on the best interests of maintaining the operational health of the company and the combined interests of our employees. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you all on your significant contributions throughout this challenging period. Globally, we have continued to pursue our Product Development activities, improve manufacturing efficiencies and streamline our internal operations. As a company, our ability to react to changing market conditions helps us to maintain a solid base from which to grow the business as we see markets begin to improve. On behalf of the Bradken Management team, I sincerely thank you for your efforts and wish you a safe and joyous holiday period.

WHAT IS AN OIL SAND OR BITUMINOUS DEPOSIT? Most of the oil sands of Canada are located in three major deposits in northern Alberta:
Fort Murray
1. Athabasca-Wabiskaw 2. Cold Lake 3. Peace River
AthabascaWabiskaw Oil Sands
Peace River Oil Sands
CANADA
Grande Prairie
ALBERTA
Between them, they cover over 140,000 square kilometres (54,000 sq miles) an area larger than England and hold proven reserves of 1.75 trillion barrels of bitumen in place.

We often hear the word Oil Sands in our Globaleyes stories. This is a type of mining many of us have little exposure or understanding of. To remedy this we hope you enjoy this story. Oil sand, tar sands or, more technically, bituminous sands, are a type of unconventional petroleum deposit. The oil sands are loose sand or partially consolidated sandstone containing naturally occurring mixtures of sand, clay, and water, saturated with a dense and extremely viscous form of petroleum technically referred to as bitumen. Natural bitumen deposits are reported in many countries, but in particular are found in extremely large quantities in Canada. Other large reserves are located in
Kazakhstan and Russia. The estimated worldwide deposits of oil are more than 2 trillion barrels (320 billion cubic metres), while over 70% of proven reserves of bitumen are in Canada. The use of bituminous deposits dates back to Paleolithic times. The earliest known use of bitumen was by Neanderthals, some 40,000 years ago. Bitumen has been found adhering to stone tools used by Neanderthals at sites in Syria. After the arrival of Homo sapiens, humans used bitumen for construction of buildings and waterproofing of
Resource: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_sands
reed boats, among other uses. In ancient Egypt, the use of bitumen was important in preparing Egyptian mummies. Today large amounts of bitumen are found covered by little overburden, making surface mining the most efficient method of extracting it. The oil sands themselves are typically 40 to 60 metres (130 to 200 ft) deep, sitting on top of flat limestone rock. In recent years miners have moved away from dragline mining to use the world’s largest shovels and trucks, which is why Bradken has been so successful in recent
years. Our skill and know-how allows us to work with our customers on product specific options that meet their unique mine site needs. Refer to the Opti-Trak story on page 4 for another great example. About two tons of oil sands are required to produce one barrel of oil. Originally, roughly 75% of the bitumen was recovered from the sand. Recent enhancements to this method have allowed recovery to increase to around 90%.

The machineis owned by mining contractor KMC who have been mining in Canada for over 30 years and are very experienced with the maintenance and operation of large mining excavators. During a service visit to inspect the wear on the Bradken Opti-Trak shoes, our Canadian Regional Sales Manager, Devon Award discussed the shoes with Darin Payne, KMC Superintendent of Shovel Maintenance. Darin was very
impressed with the product performance of the Opti-Trak shoes. At the 13,000 hour mark the shoes were inspected and showed no signs of breakage and just as importantly had resulted in NO DOWNTIME for that machine. Darin commented that this was an exceptional result compared to their other PC8000 who by 13,000 operational hours had replaced 46 broken shoes. Based on the performance to date we are hopeful the Bradken tracks will exceed 18,000 hours.

KMC commented that by switching to a Bradken crawler system they have achieved significant savings on their operational costs. Today, KMC operates with Bradken crawler shoes on their entire fleet of PC8000 shovels as well as on their RH200.

INNOVATION EXPANDING HORIZONS IN THE ALBERTA OIL SANDS Bradken has often been called a “doing company”. We see our strengths as being able to work hand in hand with our customers and provide innovation through differentiation.

Expansion Barrel on display at a recent tradeshow.
“ The Bradken Expansion Barrel marks the first true customer-driven solution of its type in the Oil Sands. With a strong customer base in this rapidly growing market, we are in a good position to leverage this solution throughout the industry.” Executive Vice President, Edmonton Len Wattamaniuk.
Bradken designed expansion barrels were installed in January 2010 and they were an instant success. Customer feedback on the design led to a number of minor design changes that helped to further enhance their performance. The first barrels were recently removed from service for full inspection after more than three years. Of the barrels removed, only six
required full replacement and twelve others required only partial replacement. Thanks to Bradken’s new modular design, our customer was able to order only the parts they needed rather than complete Expansion Barrels. Steve Roshko reports, “They no longer monitor Expansion Barrels on site. They are a forgotten problem. Our barrels are now a part of this customers

Bradken Mill Liner being installed.
Copper and its alloys have played an important role in society for more than 10,000 years. The reddish metal has many properties and uses that make it an integral part of everyday life.
Zambia has a mining history which spans over ninety years including the late 1960’s, when Zambia was the world’s third largest copper producer, after the US and the former Soviet Union. Mining was and remains central to the Zambian economy. It has played a key role in the social and economic development of the country. Zambia is Africa’s largest and the world’s seventh largest producer of copper.
CUSTOMER STORY
Although copper production was affected by low prices in the late 1990s and between 2008 and 2009, copper production in Zambia has been increasing since 2000 reaching just over 800,000 tons by the year 2012. It is projected that on account of current new mining projects under implementation, copper production will reach 1.5 million tons by the year 2016 if copper prices hold at current levels (over USD$7,000, Q2 2013).
In January 2013 Bradken mill liners were successfully installed in a 32ft SAG Mill at the FQML owned Kansanshi mine. The Kansanshi mine is the largest operational copper-gold mine in Zambia and Africa. The Vortex Discharge End, together with the Bullnose Discharge Cone and innovative design changes, has seen throughput increase by 20%. Continued on page 10.

CUSTOMER STORY
Partially completed mills at FQML Sentinel in Zambia.
Continued from page 9. After our success at the Kansanshi mine Bradken was given the opportunity to supply liners for the 38ft SAG Mill at the Barrick® owned Lumwana copper mine in Zambia. Bradken’s differentiated products, continuous improvement in product design, liner performances and scanning technology for wear monitoring were key aspects in becoming the preferred supplier at Lumwana. The 38ft SAG Mill at Lumwana with
its gearless mill drive is currently the biggest operational SAG Mill in Africa. Lumwana mine is a truck and shovel operation executed in open pits and in 2012, Lumwana produced 81,000 tons of copper. A new six tonne capacity reline machine was purchased to install the large castings with liner mass for the shell liners in excess of 4,000kg each. The Vortex Discharge End design and Bullnose Discharge cone (the second to be installed in Africa
after Kansanshi) were successfully installed into the Lumwana 38ft SAG Mill in June 2013. The nine Bullnose segments were installed in record time taking only 10 minutes per segment (a total of only 1.5 hours) which led to a considerable reduction in reline downtime and costs. Initial production figures are already showing the benefits of increased throughput and improved grind, with more data to be collected in the coming months.

Three 40ft SAG Mills and the largest ball mills in the world (28ft dia x 44ft long) are currently being built in Zambia as part of expansion projects and new mines, spurred by increased demand for metals from Asia, especially China. By adding value through differentiation and customer focused designs the future for Bradken’s Mineral Processing Division in Zambia looks bright.

PRODUCT STORY
WHEN WEAR RESISTANCE IS SERIOUS BUSINESS Rubatile速 is a new product line from the Fixed Plant Business that has shown impressive results to date.
The Fixed Plant Product Development team has developed another dream product for customers. The Rubatile uses hard alumina ceramic blocks bonded to an impact resistant natural rubber, which is not only a high performer on site but also a low cost option. Used as a modular liner system or as a customised liner they are ideal for use in moderate impact applications and severely abrasive environments found in the mineral processing industry.
AS3678-250 Plate
The Business believes use of rubber backed ceramics will replace polyurethane backed ceramics as well as many applications of metallic wear liners to become our highest selling product line. A recently completed 300 day mine trial showed approximately a 30% increase in wear life when compared to competitor products. Other testing shows our premium Rubatile product to be 170 times more wear resistant than stainless steel.

PRODUCT STORY
BRADKEN’S 1ST TRUCK TRAY MANUFACTURED AND IN OPERATION Rix’s Creek Mine owned by the Bloomfield Group are the new owners of the first modular truck tray designed by the Rail Division. This innovative design allows Bradken to centrally make the stage one truck tray “pieces” and then have them shipped globally to any site or facility for assembly. All pieces fit into 40 foot containers and all sections have locating dowels incorporated to aid final assembly. This concept allows Bradken to take advantage of the globally competitive material costs obtained through our Chinese supply teams, and
guarantees the highest quality welding and fabrication standards are maintained through Xuzhou’s stringent quality processes and skilled workforce. The Rix’s Creek tray was the result of an exceptional crossdivisional team effort. The Rail Product Development team, along with the Xuzhou and Singleton manufacturing facilities are to be commended on the first of hopefully many truck trays they will manufacture. This innovative design went into operation in September and is doing well.
