The world s s first GPS+ Receiver Leica Geosystems launched the world s first Powered by system for mining in September 2012. It brings completely new capabilities to machine automation. Slides excerpted from s Business Development Presentation PowerPoint - Copyright Corporation Feb 2013
The Revolutionary Jps System Completely new capabilities for mines Leica Geosystems Mining has developed their all-new Jigsaw Positioning System (Jps) over a 4 year period, working with to integrate our technology directly into their pro, survey-grade GPS/Glonass receivers Leica s Swiss engineers have added signals to their Core Algorithm Library (CAL), using deep in their Kalman Filter as another constellation - giving the world its first true GPS+ receiver This GPS+ receiver is the first device to show the power of GPS 2.0 - s vision of the future of positioning where satellite+terrestrial signals are combined to produce a better, more robust GPS Real-world operational mine results? Spectacular!
The Revolutionary Jps System Leica call a game changer Leica launched the JPS Powered by Fleet Management System in September 2012 at the International MINExpo Convention in Las Vegas. The global launch was also published as a feature article in the September 2012 issue of International Mining Magazine (http://www.im-mining.com/). A 14-page White Paper on the world s first Jps install at the Newmont Boddington Gold Mine in Western Australia has been produced by Leica. It details the development, deployment and operational results at the mine - it is available from the website. We thank Leica for their consent to show some of their JPS slides, and publish the results shown below.

Results for the mines? Leica Global Technology Launch: 24 Sept 2012 QUOTE FROM LEICA WHITE PAPER INTERNATIONAL MINING MAG - SEPT 2012 In fact, with fitted to all 10 drills (for this period) the additional productivity given these results is on the order of $1,000,000 per month 22
Results for Newmont Operators? A very very happy happy Greg Greg Green Green (Newmont (Newmont Boddington Boddington Gold) Gold) in in the the cabin cabin of of Drill Drill Rig Rig #3. #3. Greg Greg is is the the world s world s first first drill drill rig rig operator operator to to use use the the new new GPS+ GPS+ technology. technology. The The results results above above show show his his -enabled -enabled Jps Jps Drill Drill #3 #3 compared compared to to GPS-alone. GPS-alone. Quote: Look, it s really simple. If had not invented the technology to help fix the GPS issues in a deep pit scenario I may as well have gone back home, started breeding pit ponies and sharpened up the picks and shovels Open Cut Mines, just like everyone else that depends heavily on satellite navigation, are already hitting the wall at the outer limits of GPS technology John Carr, Boddington Gold FMS
