Exeter Resource Corp., a Canadian exploration company, controls 100% of the world class Caspiche gold-copper discovery in Chile. Exeter recently completed a prefeasibility study modeling average annual production rates of 700,000 oz gold and 244,000,000 lb copper over a mine life of 19 years. The study showed robust economics with an NPV5 of $2.8 billion, an IRR of 11.5% and total revenue of $27.4 billion (please see study filed on SEDAR for complete details). The Caspiche asset is unique, being the largest advanced stage project in Chile not owned by a major company. Resources total 30.1 Moz gold equivalent* in the Proven & Probable Reserve categories. The company has a treasury of $68 million and no debt.

*Gold equivalent value is based on gold and copper revenues (prices and recoveries involved) at 1,150 US$/oz gold and 2.50 US$/lb copper, and assuming recoveries of 65 % and 85 % respectively for sulphide material, and 78 % for Au and 11 % for Cu in the oxide zone

Expert Analysis

Daniel Earle, TD Newcrest (1/18/12) "Exeter Resource Corp.'s pre-feasibility study (PFS) for its Caspiche project marks the first study of the megaproject and builds on the June 2011 PFS for a standalone heap-leach project. . .the study demonstrates the potential to develop a world-class open-pit mine with reserves of 19.3 Moz gold and 4.6 Blbs copper. Average annual gold production was estimated at 696 Koz, at net cash costs of US$18/oz after byproduct copper production of 244 Mlbs/year at an assumed copper price of US$2.75/lb. . .the completion of the PFS establishes Caspiche as one of the largest undeveloped gold and copper reserves in the world. . .we are upgrading our recommendation to Speculative Buy."

Morning Coffee (1/18/12) "Exeter Resource Corp. rallied after releasing the awaited results of the prefeasibility study (PFS) on its 100%-owned Caspiche Au-Cu-Ag project in Chile. . .based on the 'Super Pit' oxide-sulphide mining and in-pit crushing and conveying (IPCC) option, the company anticipates an average annual production of 696 Koz Au and 244 Mlbs Cu per year (1.17 Moz Au eq), at US$606/oz Au eq cash costs, over a 19-year mine life, with 2P reserves of 19.3 Moz Au and 4.62 Blb Cu."

Wendell Zerb, Canaccord Genuity (1/18/12) "Exeter Resource Corp. has released the prefeasibility study for its 100%-owned Caspiche Au-Cu-Ag project, with results as expected. We maintain our Speculative Buy rating and 12-month CA$9.35 target price. . .Exeter's Caspiche deposit remains one of the most significant new Au-Cu-Ag discoveries in the last decade; located in the Maricunga belt in Chile and adjacent to Barrick's Cerro Casale and Kinross' Maricunga (Refugio) deposits, Caspiche is well located as this prolific district expands. . .we continue to value Exeter on metrics related to it ultimately being acquired."

John Hayes, BMO Capital Markets (1/17/12) "Exeter Resource Corp. has released a prefeasibility study examining a combined oxide/sulfide development for its Caspiche copper-gold project in Chile; the study examined several mining scenarios, with the preferred development a super open-pit operation using in-pit crushing and a conveyor system to move ore out of the pit. Oxide ore would be mined and heap-leached to produce metal onsite; sulfides would be milled and treated in a roaster (to reduce arsenic content) to produce concentrate. . .Exeter is planning to complete a standalone feasibility study on the oxide-only project."

Wendell Zerb, Canaccord Genuity (11/30/11) "We are reiterating our Speculative Buy recommendation and 12-month target price of CA$9.35 on Exeter Resource Corp. . .the company's 100%-owned Caspiche deposit remains one of the most significant new Au-Cu-Ag discoveries in the last decade. . .adjacent to Barrick's Cerro Casale and Kinross' Maricunga (Refugio) deposits, Caspiche is well located as this prolific district expands. . .in addition, the company has started a new drilling campaign. . .drilling will test new porphyry targets in close proximity to Caspiche, including the Sideral project held under option from Xstrata."
