About CSL
CSL’s WORLDWIDE FLEET
5
About 70 bulkers and transhippers
A quicker route to market
Earlier cash-flows, to fund the high cost of upstream infrastructure projects
Earlier royalty payments to fund Government projects
Earlier economic stimulus trickling down through the economy
Reduced risk of environmental wars
Transhipment – The Benefits
6
Economies of Scale not otherwise available (up scaling to Cape vessels)
Minimal Investment in Shore side Infrastructure
Minimal Port Infrastructure
Minimal or No Dredging
Minimal Environmental Impact
Transhipment – The Savings

Transhipment in The Pilbara - Potential
11
Oceanic Bathymetry
Limited opportunity for new deep water ports … little spare capacity in the current deep water ports
Typically – deep water (25m) found 10 - 20 nm from shore; means significant channel dredging to accommodate cape ships
Capital & Environment
$billion savings in infrastructure & port dredging
Limited environmental impact minimizing the “eco-wars”
Uncertainty
Volume ramp-up, Fluctuating iron ore price,
Lead time
Reduced Capex because of smaller infrastructure
Smoother approval process
Leads to earlier start up
PORT HEDLAND
14m channel + tide = max depth ~ 22m
Cape ship departures restricted to high tides
Transhipment – Better Port Utilization
