REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



Lima, Peru



March 30, 2015



To the shareholders of



Minera Yanacocha S.R.L.



In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet and the related
income statements, statements of changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows statements, present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Minera Yanacocha S.R.L at December 31, 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2014 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards
as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these financial statements in accordance with the Standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit of financial statements
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statements presentation.
We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
