The Minister or Federal Cabinet will have four months in which to render a decision on the environmental assessment.

Ninety percent of niobium enters the market as ferro-niobium (FeNb); 15% of all steel produced worldwide contains FeNb, a number that may increase to 20% in the near future. The increase in demand for FeNb has resulted largely from the overall growth in the global steel industry and also from the increasing intensity of use in steels. Demand for ferro-niobium has grown at approximately 10% per annum in recent years and Taseko anticipates that growth to continue over the next 10 years. Taseko currently utilizes a $40/kg price assumption for Ferro-niobium. Currently, 90% of the world&#8217;s niobium is supplied by three mines: The CBMM (Companhia Brasileira de Metalurgia e Minera&#231;&#227;o), Anglo American in Brazil and the Niobec mine operated by Iamgold in Quebec, Canada.</font></font></div>

These holes intersected excellent grade niobium mineralization across an area measuring over 900 metres east-west and 350 metres north-south. Mineralized drill intercepts ranged up to over 200 metres in length. Niobium mineralization intersected was highly continuous and close to surface. The extensive body of niobium mineralization indicated by the 2010 drilling was open to expansion in at least three directions and to depth.</font></div>

The Minister or Federal Cabinet will have four months in which to render a decision on the environmental assessment.

Applications for Provincial permits were submitted in June 2010 but were put in abeyance following the November 2010 Federal decision. In November 2010, the Federal Minister of Environment announced that the New Prosperity Project, as proposed, could not be granted Federal authorizations to proceed. The Company submitted a new project description to the Federal Government in February 2011. Failure to obtain certificates and permits in a timely manner or at all will delay or even lead to abandonment of the New Prosperity Project, which could negatively affect the Company.</font></div>

The prices of these metals have historically been volatile, and the Company has no control of or influence on these prices, which are determined in international markets. There can be no assurance that the price of gold or copper will remain at current levels or that it will not decline below the prices assumed in the feasibility study.</font></div>

On May 12, 2010, the Company entered into a gold stream transaction agreement with Franco-Nevada Corporation (&#8220;Franco-Nevada&#8221;), whereby the Company may receive funding in staged deposits totalling US $350 million. The investment by Franco-Nevada is subject to (among other conditions) the condition precedent that the New Prosperity project plan that we had agreed with them must receive appropriate governmental approval. Because our revised New Prosperity project plan is not the one we agreed with Franco-Nevada in 2010, this condition will not be satisfied, and so Franco-Nevada may currently terminate this agreement on ten business days&#8217; written notice to Taseko. However, we believe Franco-Nevada currently has no economic incentive to do so and is awaiting the outcome of our new proposal to the Canadian federal environmental authorities. If our revised mine proposal is ultimately accepted by the authorities, we intend to seek Franco-Nevada agreement to reconfirm the terms of our gold stream transaction with them, but there is no assurance that Franco-Nevada will agree to provide such reconfirmation. Until then, Franco-Nevada could terminate the agreement. There is also a risk that Franco-Nevada will be unable to fund its obligations at the time we receive the necessary approvals. The investment by Franco-Nevada is also subject to certain other conditions precedent which the Company may not be able to satisfy. There can be no assurance that gold stream, debt or equity financing will be available on acceptable terms. Other general risks include those typical of very large construction projects, including the general uncertainties inherent in engineering and construction costs, the need to comply with generally increasing environmental regulation, and accommodation of local and community concerns. The economics of the feasibility study are sensitive to the US dollar and Canadian dollar exchange rate, and this rate has been subject to large fluctuations in the last several years.</font></div>

Significant competition exists for the acquisition of properties producing or capable of producing copper, gold or other metals. We may be at a competitive disadvantage in acquiring additional mining properties because we must compete with other individuals and companies, many of which have greater financial resources, operational experience and technical capabilities than we do. We may also encounter increasing competition from other mining companies in our efforts to hire experienced mining professionals. Competition for exploration resources at all levels is currently very intense. Increased competition could adversely affect our ability to attract necessary capital funding, or to acquire it on acceptable terms, or acquire suitable producing properties or prospects for mineral exploration in the future.</font></div>

Increased demand for and cost of services and equipment could cause project costs to increase materially, resulting in delays if services or equipment cannot be obtained in a timely manner due to inadequate availability, and increased potential for scheduling difficulties and cost increases due to the need to coordinate the availability of services or equipment, any of which could materially increase project exploration, development or construction costs, result in project delays, or both.</font></div>
