SUMMARY AUDIT REPORT <br />1. PRODUCTION Encourage responsible cyanide manufacturing by purchasing <br />from manufacturers that operate in a safe and environmentally protective manner. <br />Standard of Practice <br />1.1 Purchase cyanide from manufacturers employing appropriate practices and <br />procedures to limit exposure of their workforce to cyanide, and to prevent <br />releases of cyanide to the environment. <br />The operation is: <br />• in full compliance <br />❑ in substantial compliance <br />❑ not in compliance...with Standard of Practice 1.1 <br />Discuss the basis for this Finding/Deficiencies Identified: <br />CC &V's cyanide procurement arrangements have not changed since the June 2007 <br />ICMC certification audit. Through 2008, CC &V was contracted to CyPlus for cyanide <br />supply and delivery services. However, in 2008 CyPlus divested its gold mining supply <br />operations in Canada and the US, ownership of which was assumed by Cyanco. Cyanco <br />assumed responsibility for the CC &V supply contract as part of the 2008 acquisition of <br />CyPlus's North American assets, and has continued the subcontract arrangement without <br />any substantial modifications. <br />The intent for mutual compliance with the ICMC was recognized in the initial wording of <br />the 2002 contract between CyPlus and CC &V, which was modified in 2007 (Change <br />Order 003) to specifically require that the manufacturer and hauler be certified to the <br />ICMC. Change order 004 extended the contractual period of performance through the <br />end of 2014. <br />Cyanco's services to CC &V were originally managed from CyPlus's operation in <br />Cadillac, Quebec, which was certified to the ICMC in January 2007, acquired by Cyanco <br />in 2008, and (as Cyanco) recertified in November 2009. <br />2. TRANSPORTATION Protect communities and the environment during cyanide <br />transport. <br />Standards of Practice <br />2.1 Establish clear lines of responsibility for safety, security, release prevention, <br />training and emergency response in written agreements with producers, <br />distributors and transporters. <br />Cresson Project <br />Name of Mine <br />September 22, 2010 <br />Signature of Lead Auditor Date <br />Page 4 of 36 <br />
