Dear Mary,

Re: Casino Project –YESAB Water Balance to Include Climate Variability

1 – INTRODUCTION

The water balance submitted to the Yukon Environmental and Socio-Economic Assessment Board (YESAB) for the Casino Project (the project) has been updated to determine the potential impact of climate variability on modelled results. The objective of the water balance modelling exercise was to evaluate the quantity of flow of water in the ground, in the streams, and in various mine facilities under a variety of climate conditions. The water balance model also provided the platform on which the water quality model was developed.

The purpose of this letter is to outline the climate inputs and water management assumptions that were used for climate variability water balance modelling, and to present the results of the study. Only the water quantity model and results are discussed in this letter. The water quality model has been prepared by Source Environmental Associates Inc. (SEA) and will be documented separately.

2 – BACKGROUND AND MODELLING PHILOSOPHY

The water balance model submitted as part of the YESAB Proposal (the Proposal) was a deterministic model created using the GoldSim© software package based on mean monthly climate inputs. The deterministic water balance was based on the water management plan developed for the Proposal, as presented in the Knight Piésold (KP) report “Water Management Plan” (2013a). The deterministic water balance integrated the results of various models created to define the groundwater and surface water management plan for the site and these models included a watershed model, a numerical groundwater model, and the feasibility level operational mine site water balance model. The modelling methodology, assumptions and input parameters used to develop the deterministic water balance are presented in the KP report “YESAB Water Balance Model Report” (2013b), along with the results of the modelling. The water balance model presented in this letter involves variable climate inputs, but also includes modifications to the Proposal water management plan that were made in response to updated water quality predictions resulting from assessing the effects of the variable inputs.

Climate variability was modelled by systematically varying climatic inputs based on a 52 year historical climate record (precipitation and temperature) developed for the project site. The historical climate record was based on correlating available project site data with the measured data from the regional climate station at Pelly Ranch (ID 2100880), which is operated by Environment Canada (EC). Details of the development of the precipitation and temperature record for the project site are included in the KP Report “Casino Project – Baseline Climate Report” (2013c).

The water balance timeline included four years of baseline conditions (Year -8 to Year -5), four years of pre-production (Year -4 to Year -1), 22 years of operations (Year 1 to Year 22), 91 years of closure (Year 23 to Year 113), and 87 years of post-closure (Year 114 to Year 200). The 52 year net precipitation

2 of 15 VA15-01998 February 5, 2015

sequence therefore had to be repeated four times to produce a time series long enough for the 208 year simulation timeline. This approach maintained the inherent cyclical nature of the climate record. The climate variability model was run with 52 iterations for each year of simulated mine life, enabling a large number of combinations of resulting wet, dry, and median months and years of precipitation to be considered. The climate inputs were essentially cycled through the model, such that the monthly climate inputs for year 2 in the first run became the inputs for year 1 in the second run, and the inputs for year 3 in the first run became the inputs for year 2 in the second run, and so on. Each year of monthly climate values that was displaced was then tacked onto the end of the 208 year (4 x 52 years) time series. Model outputs, and in particular flow volumes, were then compiled as distributions for each month in each year, from which probabilities of occurrence could be determined. The probabilities of occurrence presented for the water balance results represent the following conditions: • Median scenario – 50% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given month or year; • 95th percentile scenario – 95% chance of the water volume or flow rate not being equaled or exceeded in

any given month or year (5% chance that it will be); also referred to as the 95th percentile wet; and • 5th percentile scenario – 5% chance of a water volume or flow rate not being equaled or exceeded in any

given month or year (95% chance that it will be); also referred to as the 95th percentile dry.

The climate variability water balance model was used to assess the effects of the variable climatic inputs on the project, and provided a range of water quantity predictions over the operations, closure and post-closure phases. The flow outputs from the climate variability water balance were used as the inputs to the corresponding water quality model prepared by SEA. The general arrangement for the maximum footprint of the project used for the water balance is shown on Figure 1.

3 – WATER MANAGEMENT ASSUMPTION UPDATES

The basic components of the water balance remain unchanged from those in the Proposal, but the water management plan was modified to address potential water quality issues identified by climate variability water quality modelling. The water management plan was modified as follows:

3.1 TAILINGS MANAGEMENT FACILITY AND OPEN PIT

Operations (Years 1 to 22): • The water management pond (WMP) to be constructed downstream of the TMF embankment will include a

seepage cut-off wall keyed into bedrock. The purpose of the cut-off wall will be to intercept all seepage from the TMF and force it to surface where it will collect in the storage pond. Previously, this seepage cut-off was to be implemented only at closure but now it will be constructed prior to operations in order to improve the capture of seepage from the TMF.

Closure Water Management Phase I (Years 23 to 34): • During the first 5 years of closure (Year 23 to 27), while the TMF pond water is being pumped to the Open

Pit, the seepage and runoff collected in the WMP will also be pumped directly to the Open Pit. Pumping of the WMP water directly to the Open Pit will help to facilitate ongoing improvement of water quality in the TMF pond.

• Following the 5 years of pumping TMF pond water to the Open Pit, the TMF pond will be allowed to fill naturally to the closure spillway elevation and then discharge to Casino Creek. Pumping of seepage from the WMP to the Open Pit will continue until the TMF pond reaches the approximate spillway elevation, which is predicted to occur in approximately Year 34 (under median conditions). The TMF filling time predicted in the climate variability water balance is similar to that predicted in the Proposal water balance; that is, approximately 10 to 15 years after the end of operations.

• The WMP will be expanded in closure to 600,000 m3 (unchanged from the Proposal) in order to accommodate runoff and seepage water collected from the TMF and store it during the winter months. In the Proposal, this pond was referred to as the “winter seepage mitigation pond” in closure. For simplicity, in the climate variability model this pond will be referred to as the “water management pond” in closure, since the pond features largely remain the same as in operations (i.e. seepage cut-off wall), with the exception of the increase in volume.

• The closure cover on the Heap Leach Facility (HLF) was assumed to be 80% effective at reducing infiltration for the climate variability water balance, as opposed to an assumption of 50% in the deterministic water balance. This increase in effectiveness is based on re-contouring of the heap surface slopes and the placement of a low permeability material on top of the heap, as described in the “Conceptual Closure and Reclamation Plan” (Brodie, 2013) submitted with the Proposal.

Closure Water Management Phase II (Years 35 to 109): • Seasonal discharge from the WMP will commence once the TMF is spilling and when natural flows in

Brynelson Creek are sufficient to provide substantial dilution. This constraint was implemented as a mitigation measure in order to prevent the discharge of seepage from the project at times when there is little to no dilution available from surface runoff. The seasonal timing and associated discharge rates from the WMP will be as follows: o In April, the WMP will be allowed to discharge naturally as required. o In May, once Brynelson Creek is flowing at a rate of 20 L/s or more, the WMP will discharge at a ratio of

0.8 times the Brynelson Creek flow. o From June to November the WMP will discharge at a ratio of 0.8 times the Brynelson Creek flow or 200

L/s, whichever is greater. This condition will ensure that the pond will be emptied by the end of November each year.

5 of 15 VA15-01998 February 5, 2015

• An additional mitigation measure adopted in the climate variability model included the discharge of surface water from the TMF to Casino Creek at the onset of freshet and through April and May to supplement the dilution of the seepage discharge from the WMP. A low-level outlet was incorporated into the TMF spillway and was assumed to discharge water at a ratio of 2.0 times the WMP seepage discharge in April and May, and then at a ratio of 1.2 until November, while still maintaining adequate water cover over the wetlands, tailings and waste rock stored in the TMF, under all climatic conditions.

• The TMF will continue to discharge excess water via the closure spillway under wet conditions, as necessary.

Closure Water Management Phase III (Year 109+): • The Open Pit is predicted to be full as of Year 109 (under median conditions), approximately 87 years after

the end of operations. This filling time is approximately 5 years less than the 92 years (Year 114) that was predicted with the deterministic water balance.

• Once the Open pit is completely flooded and discharging to the TMF, the TMF seasonal discharge (April through to November) ratio was assumed to increase to 2.5 times the WMP discharge.

4 – VARIABLE CLIMATE INPUTS AND ASSUMPTIONS

4.1 NET PRECIPITATION INPUTS

Climate variability was modelled using the net precipitation values from the calibrated watershed model described in Appendix A of the Casino Project – YESAB Water Balance Model Report (KP, 2013b). Net precipitation is the water available for groundwater recharge and runoff, determined as the total amount of precipitation (rainfall and snowmelt) less losses to the environment (e.g. evapotranspiration and soil moisture losses). The watershed model produced a 52 year time series of net precipitation values for baseline and mine development conditions, as presented in Appendices A and B (attached), respectively.

4.2 LAKE EVAPORATION

The deterministic water balance used an annual lake evaporation value of 300 mm for the project site, based on mean monthly values calculated using the Thornthwaite equation (without latitude correction), as presented in the baseline climate report (KP, 2013c). A subsequent review of lake evaporation for the project suggested that the annual value should be greater, and more in the range of 350 mm to 400 mm. Therefore the lake evaporation values in the climate variability water balance were revised to equate to an average annual value of approximately 390 mm, which was achieved by applying a latitude adjustment factor to the monthly values calculated using the Thornthwaite equation. The revised lake evaporation estimates are considered appropriate based on regional evaporation information currently available from the Yukon and Alaska. The estimated monthly lake evaporation values for the TMF pond and the Pit Lake, at an assumed elevation of 1400 m, are shown in Table C.1 in Appendix C.

4.3 DOWNSTREAM WATER QUALITY COMPLIANCE NODE

Flows at an additional node (W16) located downstream of the water balance model footprint were calculated for water quality purposes. Flows at this node were simulated by prorating flows from the upstream water balance model on the basis of drainage area.

5 – WATER BALANCE RESULTS

5.1 OVERVIEW

Using the climate variability approach, 52 different simulated flow values were generated for each node in the model. The water balance flow schematics, as previously developed for the deterministic water balance (KP, 2013b), were updated and are included in Appendix D. The annual flow volumes that correspond to the

6 of 15 VA15-01998 February 5, 2015

nodes presented in the flow schematics for each water management phase have also been summarized in Table D.1, based on the median case results.

The following sections present discussions of detailed water balance results for the TMF, Open Pit, Water Management Pond (WMP), and Heap Leach Facility (HLF). The results are presented as monthly and annual probabilistic values (median, 95th percentile wet and 5th percentile dry), as well as mean, maximum and minimum values derived from the 52 model iterations.

5.2 TAILINGS MANAGEMENT FACILITY

The water balance was used to determine the likelihood of having a surplus or a deficit water condition for mill operations. A deficit condition pertains to when the TMF pond volume is insufficient to maintain mill operations. The minimum required TMF pond volume during operations was assumed to be 15 Mm3, which is equal to approximately three months of mill requirements. Makeup water from the Yukon River was used to supplement the mill process water when deficit conditions occurred during years of mill operations (Years 1 to 22). The annual makeup flow requirements for the mill during operations are summarized in Table 1.

Prior to mill start up in Year 1, water from the Yukon River will be required to supplement the TMF pond to establish the minimum starting pond volume of 15 Mm3. The start-up water requirements from the Yukon River are summarized in Table 2. The Yukon River freshwater pipeline will be adequately sized to convey the makeup water requirements for all phases of the Project. Figure 2 presents the possible range of pond volumes in the TMF, for both pre-production and operations of the mine, under variable climate conditions.

The TMF makeup water requirements at start-up and during operations that are predicted by the climate variability water balance are consistent with but slightly lower than those predicted by the deterministic water balance. There is no makeup water required under all scenarios for Year 22 because the TMF is in a surplus condition and can supply all the required process water required by the mill.

Following the cessation of milling activities, water in the TMF pond will be pumped to the Open Pit to allow for the construction of the North and South TMF wetlands. The range of possible TMF pond water depths resulting from pumping under various climate scenarios are summarized in Table 3. Following the wetland establishment, the TMF pond will then fill at its natural inflow rate, and will take between 10 and 15 years to completely fill and begin spilling, depending on climate conditions.

Discharge from the TMF pond in closure will be via the constructed TMF spillway to Casino Creek downstream of the WMP. The discharge from the TMF pond will be a combination of the water released through the low-level outlet in the spillway and the excess flow through the main spillway during wet periods. The predicted total combined monthly and annual discharges through the TMF spillway (low-level + main spillway) are summarized in Table 6 for the varying climate conditions. The monthly and annual flow rates for Years 60 and 120 are shown, which represent the periods prior to the Open Pit spilling and after the Open Pit spilling.

5.3 OPEN PIT

During closure, the Open Pit will be allowed to fill and become a pit lake. The annual Pit Lake discharge volume will be released to the North TMF Wetland at a controlled rate through a gravity controlled discharge system during the warmest months of the year (June through September). The climate variability water balance was used to determine the Pit Lake filling time under variable climatic conditions. The climate variability water balance simulation shows that the Pit Lake will take approximately 87 years (Year 109) to fill after the end of operations for the median case, and 83 to 88 years to fill based on 95th percentile wet and 5th percentile dry scenarios, respectively.

Once pit filling is achieved, a controlled release flow averaging 180 L/s (June through September) will be required to maintain lake levels in the Pit at or below an elevation of 1095 masl, based on average climate conditions. Flows in excess of the controlled flow rate will be allowed to spill to the North TMF Wetland. Table 5 summarizes the release rates from the Pit Lake to the North TMF Wetland for Year 110. The climate variability water balance results show that the assumed release rate from the deterministic water balance of 180 L/s will still able to maintain the maximum Pit water level elevation of 1095 masl in closure, for the median and dry scenarios. For the 95th percentile wet scenario, the climate variability model predicts excess release rates to occur in the first 11 years (Years 109 to 119) following the commencement of the Pit Lake release. The surplus flows will be discharged downstream to the North TMF Wetland.

5.4 WATER MANAGEMENT POND

The Water Management Pond (WMP) that will be constructed prior to operations, downstream of the TMF main embankment, includes a groundwater seepage cut-off wall keyed into bedrock, which will function to collect seepage and embankment runoff. In closure, the WMP will be expanded to a volume of 600,000 m3 to allow for

11 of 15 VA15-01998 February 5, 2015

the collection and storage of all runoff and seepage over the winter. Initially in closure, the water collected will be pumped directly to the Open Pit for the duration of Closure Water Management Phase I. Once the TMF begins spilling (Closure Water Management Phase II), flows collected in the WMP will be stored during the low flow months (December through March) and discharged during the spring to coincide with periods of flows in Brynelson Creek and and/or discharge from TMF spillway (April through November). Discharge from the WMP will continue in Closure Water Management Phase III, once the Open Pit is full and spilling to the TMF pond. The flow releases from the WMP are summarized in Table 6 for Years 60 and 120, which represent the periods prior to and after the Open Pit is spilling to the TMF pond.

The water management pond flow release rates for the closure period predicted by both the climate variability and deterministic water balances are consistent on an annual basis, for the median scenario. However, the monthly distributions of the flow releases differ, as those for the climate variability water balance were modified to match the timing of higher flows in Brynelson Creek in order to achieve better dilution of the winter seepage releases. This modification results in higher discharges from the pond in May, compared to the deterministic water balance, with minimal releases in April and November. Overall, the water management pond in closure is still predicted to empty by the end of each year and provide adequate storage for the winter seepage and runoff.

5.5 HEAP LEACH FACILITY

The results of the climate variability water balance indicate that the Heap Leach Facility (HLF) will operate in a water deficit condition during all months of operations when ore stacking is active (Years -3 to 15). Table 7 summarizes the annual makeup water requirements during operations when ore is being actively irrigated with cyanide solution. As shown in Table 7, the makeup water requirements will decrease each year as water released from inactive areas becomes available and the environmental contributions will increase due to the increasing heap footprint. The makeup requirements predicted by the climate variability water balance are slightly lower than those predicted by the deterministic water balance; however, this also results in more

12 of 15 VA15-01998 February 5, 2015

discharge from the heap to the TMF pond and/or Open Pit in the active closure phases of heap operations, as shown on Figure 3.

Figure 3 presents estimates of the surplus water generated from the heap as well as the accumulated water stored in the heap, for the median and 95th percentile wet cases. The heap will be in a surplus condition from July to September, in Years 15 to 23 (median case), because the environmental inputs will exceed the leaching water requirements during these months. The surplus water from Years 15 to 18 (blue line) is assumed to be recycled to inactive areas of the heap, therefore adding to the water inventory in the heap. During the rinsing phase (Years 19 to 23) no additional water will accumulate in the heap because the surplus water (orange line) will be pumped to the Open Pit to aid in pit filling. Once the heap draindown commences in Year 24, the stacked ore is assumed to drain to the long-term residual moisture content of 5% (by mass) over 5 years until Year 29. During the heap draindown phase, the draindown water will be discharged from the heap at a constant rate of 52,535 m3/mon (1726 m3/day) plus whatever environmental inputs occur (rain plus snowmelt), which will result in the seasonal discharge pattern illustrated by the red line on Figure 3. The surplus water during this phase is assumed to be pumped to the Open Pit. Once the draindown flow reaches manageable levels, as of Year 29, the closure cover on the heap is assumed to become effective by reducing the infiltration through the heap by 80% of net precipitation, and accordingly the water discharged from the heap will be reduced, as shown by the green line. From this time onwards, in perpetuity, the heap discharge as well as the runoff from the closure cover will be routed naturally downstream to the TMF pond.

6 – SUMMARY

The deterministic (Proposal) water balance was updated to include climate variability. The purpose of the climate variability model was to evaluate the quantities and rates of flow of water in the ground, in the streams, and in various mine facilities under a variety of climate conditions. The climate variability water balance results were also used by SEA to develop a water quality model for the project. The key results of the water balance for varying climate conditions are as follows: • The project mine will be in a water deficit condition during operations; therefore, makeup water from the

Yukon River freshwater pipeline will be required to supplement the mill process. Makeup water requirements for dry conditions (5th percentile) will range from 12.6 Mm3/yr at the start of operations to 8.3 Mm3/yr at the end of operations, while for wet conditions (95th percentile) they will range from 5.3 Mm3/yr at the start of operations to 1.8 Mm3/yr at the end of operations.

• Prior to mill start up in Year 1, water from the Yukon River will be required to supplement the TMF pond to establish the minimum starting pond volume of 15 Mm3. The start-up water requirements from the Yukon River range from 12.6 Mm3 (5th percentile dry) to 4.0 Mm3 (95th percentile wet).

• Water in the TMF pond will be pumped to the Open Pit for five years following the end of operations, which will draw down the TMF pond level by approximately 0.5 m to 1.8 m, depending on the climate variability.

• The TMF will take approximately 10 to 15 years after the end of operations to begin spilling through the constructed spillway.

• Annual discharges from the TMF spillway will range from approximately 69 to 232 L/s (5th and 95th percentiles) following the TMF reaching its maximum capacity in closure, and range from approximately 118 to 303 L/s (5th and 95th percentiles) once the Pit Lake begins discharging.

• It will take approximately 83 to 88 years after the end of operations to establish the Pit Lake in the Open Pit, with an outlet elevation of 1095 masl.

• The release from the Pit Lake to the North TMF Wetland will have an average outflow of 180 L/s during June through September in order to maintain the Pit Lake elevation. For the 95th percentile wet scenario, additional water will be need to be released in the first 11 years after the Pit is full to maintain the Pit Lake elevation at 1095 m. Releases are not required under the median and dry scenarios.

• The water management pond (WMP) constructed downstream of the TMF will begin releasing flows when the TMF has reached its maximum capacity and begins spilling. The WMP will release flow from April to November, with the flow rates varying per month to match the flow in Brynelson Creek in order to provide the necessary dilution to maintain water quality standards. There will be no flow releases from December through March and the pond has been sized to collect and store seepage and runoff during the winter months.

• The heap leach facility will be in a water deficit condition during operations, with makeup water consistently required from the Yukon River. Makeup water requirements for dry conditions (5th percentile) will range from 0.08 Mm3/yr to 0.6 Mm3/yr, while for wet conditions (95th percentile) they will range from 0.1 Mm3/yr to 0.4 M m3/yr. After operations, the heap leach facility will be in a surplus condition and water will be discharged to the Open Pit until draindown is complete, after which it will be discharged to the TMF.
