The Martabe Mine benefits from its close proximity to key infrastructure in North Sumatra. Martabe is adjacent to the Trans-Sumatra highway and is about 350 kilometres away by major arterial road from Medan, which is the regional centre of Sumatra and the third largest city in Indonesia. Martabe is only 40 kilometres from the town of Sibolga, which has airport and port facilities available.
Martabe also has good access to a reliable supply of water and electricity — two key inputs for mining operations. A reliable and sufficient supply of water is available on-site from streams and watercourses. Power will be provided from the local high voltage Sumatra power network, which has recently been supplemented by the commissioning of a power station in Sibolga. Telecommunications infrastructure, supporting international communications, is already in place. In addition, the Martabe operation can take advantage of a large pool of capable and professional Indonesian mining personnel.

There is significant potential to extend the life of the mine and Mineral Resource base
