EMPEROR CONFIRMS THE SALE OF VATUKOULA MINE AND THE FIJI ASSETS OF EMPEROR
MINES LIMITED

Emperor Mines Limited (“Emperor”) (ASX:EMP) announces that it has signed an agreement to sell all its
Fijian assets, including the foundation Vatukoula Mine, to Westech Gold PTY Limited (“Westech”), a
private company incorporated in Australia.

Under the agreement, Emperor is selling 100% of its shares in the Australian incorporated companies, which
in turn own the Fijian assets of the Emperor group.

With immediate effect, all assets and liabilities of the Emperor Fijian operations will be transferred to
Westech.

Announcing the sale in Brisbane today, Emperor Chief Executive, Mr Brad Gordon, said that the sale and
transfer of Fiji assets and liabilities was particularly important at this time, because it allowed the company
to draw a line under its activities in Fiji, and concentrate on the restructuring process announced earlier this
year.

“We can now confirm the sale of all Fijian company assets, something we considered essential to stem the
cash flow drain on the Emperor group occasioned by the ongoing costs of care and maintenance at
Vatukoula.”

Frazer Bourchier, the former General Manager of Fiji operations for Emperor Mines, said today that the sale
paves the way forward for future operations and investment in the Vatukoula district by the new owners, and
represents the end of a chapter for Emperor Mines.

“I would like to personally thank those who have been involved in this process and I truly believe we have
achieved an outcome that is good for the companies involved, good for the community of Vatukoula, and
good for the Republic of Fiji.”
