Matt Sutcliffe ,Executive Chairman, said "Although the health of the world economy can hardly be said to be in the pink, equity markets have enjoyed an excellent start to 2013. Hopes are high that healthy world economic growth is within sight. Mining companies have battled these headwinds of economic uncertainty satisfactorily. However, there now seems to be an industry acceptance, based on investors' demands, that improving margins and a proper return on capital are paramount. During the period of my review, base metals' prices have been volatile and range bound, albeit weakening recently....With the progress and initiatives announced to date and those foreseeable, I am highly confident in Alexander's future."
