UNDERGROUND MINING SERVICES

Downer EDI Limited (Downer) announced today that it had been awarded a contract with OZ

Minerals Carrapateena Pty Ltd (OZ Minerals), valued at approximately $660 million over six and a

half years, to provide underground mining services at the Carrapateena copper gold project in

South Australia.

The scope of work to be carried out by Downer includes:

 site setup and development to the top of the ore body and infrastructure excavation;

 production setup and ramp up; and

 bedding in steady-state operations at nameplate site capacity.

Downer is scheduled to commence mining services at Carrapateena from 1 July 2018.

This mining services contract is in addition to the engineering, procurement and construction

contract awarded to Downer, with its joint venture partner Ausenco Pty Ltd, in December 2017.

The Chief Executive Officer of Downer, Grant Fenn, said Downer was pleased to be expanding its

relationship with OZ Minerals at Carrapateena, which is located approximately 160 kilometres

north of Port Augusta in South Australia.

“This new contract is an excellent example of the breadth of services we can offer to customers in

Minerals to ensure this important project is delivered safely and efficiently.”
