Executive Summary
We are pleased to present the October edition of the PCF ResourcesThermometer including the PCFGroup150, a ranking of the
top 150 ASX listed resources companies (excluding oil and gas), by market capitalisation.
September resulted in another month of negative territory, as the value of the PCF Group 150 decreased by A$22.4 billion or 8%
to A$257.0 billion. BHP Billiton declined $15.1 billion (-11.4%) and Rio Tinto $6.1 billion (-10.2%) respectively.
With the recent release of 30 June 2015 annual reports, we have prepared an analysis of the remuneration for the key executive,
for the 12 month period to 30 June 2015 for each member of the PCF Group 150. Analysis excludes companies with anything
other than a 30 June year end.
Information presented in this document references data as at 30 September 2015. Explanatory Notes on page 30 may be of
assistance when interpreting information contained throughout this document.
SNAPSHOT
PCF Group 150
• Market value of PCF Group 150 was A$257.0 billion, down A$22.4 billion (-8.0%) from August.
• Of the top 25 companies, positive increments were only recorded by the gold producers!!
Price
Performance
• Positive share price movements were highlights for the Gold and Iron Ore sectors, whilst the Copper
and Nickel sectors overall were in the red.
• Azure Minerals was the stand out following a significant high grade silver discovery at its Alacran
Project in Mexico and a well-supported capital raising - share price up 230% for the month.
• Analyst optimism remains positive, as evidenced by the trajectory of the commodity price forecast
curves, although they appear to be flattening - refer page 8.
Peer Company
Valuations
• Reflective of underlying price or specific corporate activity, average peer valuations for Gold improved
whilst Nickel decreased. Copper and Iron Ore sector valuations remained relatively flat in September.
Liquidity &
Short Positions
• Gold liquidity increased dramatically, reflective of the sector interest.
• In Copper, the notable movement was a lift in Azure Mineral’s liquidity post the capital raising.
• In Nickel, there was a material fall in the liquidity levels of both Independence and Segue.
• Overall short positions remained stable month on month for all sectors, with the only notable
movement being the fall in short positions in Independence.
Transaction
Metrics
• September was a quiet month in terms of project level transaction announcements, with the following:
• Aditya Birla announced the sale of its Mt Gordon Copper Project.
• Sphere Minerals’granting of an option to purchase an 80% interest in its Askaf Magnetite Project.
• Project level transactions that completed during the month of September included:
• Centaurus Metals’sale of the Candonga Iron Ore Project.
• Metals X’s acquisition of the Mt Henry Gold Project.

Note: Bar chart illustrates monthly share turnover as a percentage of total shares on issue, from largest to smallest. An increase in share turnover (month-on-month) is represented by a light blue bar on top of the
prior month’s share turnover (being the dark blue bar). A decrease in share liquidity (month-on-month) is represented by the red bar (representing the prior month’s share turnover) falling to the dark blue bar
component (being the current month’s turnover).
Note: Bar chart illustrates reported short positions as a percentage of total shares on issue, from largest to smallest result. An increase in short positions (month-on-month) is represented by a light blue bar on
top of the prior month’s short positions (being the dark blue bar). A decrease in short positions (month-on-month) is represented by the red bar (representing the prior month’s short positions) falling to the dark
blue bar component (being the current month’s short positions). Compares data from 25/08/2015 to 24/09/2015.

Market Analysis
Price
Performance
• 1, 3 and 12 month share price performance in percentage terms is illustrated
for each sector along with relevant commodity price and index performance for
comparison purposes
Peer Company
Valuations
• Market-based valuation metrics (or‘peer’metrics) are calculated based upon:
• end-of-month market capitalisation (MC) data;
• most recent balance date net debt (cash) figures to determine enterprise
value (EV); and
• most recent published Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves (where appropriate)
Liquidity
• Liquidity is calculated as the number of shares traded in the month as a
percentage of total shares on issue. Liquidity bar charts illustrate the change in
liquidity from the previous to the current month
• Companies are presented in order with the most liquid company in the current
month on the LHS of the bar chart
Short Positions
• ‘Short’data is sourced from the ASIC published short position data
• Short Positions are calculated as the number of shares traded and reported as a
‘short sale’in the month, as a percentage of total shares on issue. Short Position
bar charts illustrate the change in Short Positions from the previous to the current
month
• Companies are presented in order with the most‘shorted’company in the current
month on the LHS of the bar chart
Transaction
Metrics
• Transaction Metrics relate to completed asset (or project) transactions. Corporate-
level transactions (such as‘change of control’transactions), as well as Options and
JV/Farm-In style transactions do not form part of this analysis
• Announced transactions still in progress and yet to complete do not form part of
this analysis
