Why MTB

“Northern Peru Copper is a ‘junior’ mining company, strong on geology, exploration, and financial know-how but short on the kind of comprehensive management resources necessary for detailed development of how, but short on the kind of comprehensive management resources necessary for detailed development of our El Galeno copper project. MTB stepped in and gave us exactly the kind of strong, knowledgeable management and oversight that we needed to keep our development progressing on time and within budget while ensuring that no critical steps, elements or information are overlooked. As we progress from prefeasibility into feasibility, we know that we can trust MTB to manage all our technical consultants, keep a watchful eye on the budget and schedule, anticipate and solve problems before they become critical, and to help us create the highest-quality and most accurate feasibility study possible.”

Marshall Koval, CEONorthern Peru Copper CorpNorthern Peru Copper Corp.

regarding MTB’s management of prefeasibility andfeasibility studies for the El Galeno Project in Peru

“MTB helped us develop and build our project as any owner desires: within budget and on schedule. Even p p p j y gthough these were great achievements, the fact that the mine started operations with no technical problems made MTB's contribution really outstanding.“

Miguel Aramburú, CEOHochschild Mining plc

regarding MTB's management of the development and construction of the Sipán Heap Leach Gold Project in northern Perú

Why MTB

“MTB came in during the middle of the project to help the contractor get a handle on the project's cost and schedule They assessed the situation quickly and made sure that I understood the problems honestly and schedule. They assessed the situation quickly and made sure that I understood the problems honestly and responsibly. These people are straight shooters intent on serving the project owner's interests. I was impressed and looked forward to bringing them in on my next project.“

"Without MTB, it might have been another year or more before the project actually got started. MTB entered an environment in which attitudes were hostile, negotiations were stalled, and no one could see a clear direction for the project. MTB produced the first project schedule, mediated different groups toward

t th d l i d id d i i th t thi j t ld b li h d Th i l h agreement on methodologies, and provided a vision that this project could be accomplished. Their value has only increased as the project has moved forward.“

Marshall Koval CEO

Northern Peru Copper Corp. regarding MTB’s management of prefeasibility and

feasibility studies for El Galeno Project in Peru “The mining industry is booming. All consulting engineers have more work than they can handle. Many mining companies are trying to move new projects toward production as fast as possible so that they may reap the benefits of high metal prices. Inca Pacific is such a company with a greenfield copper-molybdenum project in Peru. Without MTB to coordinate and manage our principle consultants, Inca Pacific would be unable to complete its definitive feasibility study on time and on budget. MTB brings discipline and control to the engineering process, which today is more crucial than at any time in recent history.”

Anthony “Tony” Floyd President and Director Inca Pacific Resources

regarding MTB’s management of prefeasibility and feasibility studies for the Magistral Project in Peru

“MTB’s management expertise, attention to detail, and creative problem solving have been essential to the success of Franconia Mineral’s efforts to advance the development of our Birch Lake project in northern Minnesota. Since we retained MTB in mid-2006 to manage our prefeasibility study, MTB has brought cost-effective management to all areas of our exploration operations and project development. They provide day-to-day management of our drilling and metallurgical testing work, in addition to managing the engineering, geotechnical and other consultants completing the study. In managing all of these activities and consultants, MTB has focused on controlling our budget and schedule. MTB has also provided invaluable assistance with our public information efforts.”

I have had the benefit of their guidance as both a business attorney in private practice and as President and General Counsel of a privately held precious metals reclamation company. MTB leaves no stone unturned, and gives 110% of their efforts and talent to every project, at every stage. They completed a feasibility study that has been the backbone of a company with which I have been working for four years. I am convinced that this company would have faltered without MTB's participation.
