3 CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Dear Eligible Shareholder,

On behalf of Alchemy Resources Limited, I am pleased to invite you to participate in the partially underwritten 1 for 2 non-renounceable pro-rata entitlement offer at an issue price of $0.025 per New Share to raise up to approximately $1,960,662 (before costs). The issue price represents a 37.5% discount to the VWAP of the closing price on the ASX over the last 20 trading days prior to the announcement to ASX on 11 December 2013.

As contemplated in the last Annual Report, the funds available for exploration were to be expended on the strike-extensive target zones at the Magnus Prospect. This program was completed in the September quarter with numerous untested targets delineated over a 15 km zone of mineralisation (see ASX announcement on 11 November 2013).

In conjunction with the above program, targeted drilling at the Seaborg Prospect confirmed previous high-grade gold intersections and confirmed the gold- prospectivity of the Bryah Basin Project.

The Board has now refocused the short term exploration objectives onto the Seaborg Prospect and the other gold targets in this area and the majority of the funds raised in this Non-renounceable Issue will be used to advance drilling activities at the Company’s Bryah Basin gold prospects which are scheduled to commence in February 2014.

The drilling will initially target high-grade gold at the Seaborg and Central Bore West prospects and will thereafter start testing historic gold-only intercepts and gold-in-soil anomalies in the potential strike extensions from these prospects and other high priority targets.

A portion of the funds raised, together with existing cash reserves and expected inflow from a research and development rebate claim in preparation, will be used for exploration activities on the Company’s other gold projects in Western Australia’s Murchison and for general working capital.

It is also planned to reduce to cash burn rate for the company by seeking joint venture partners for the prospective copper-gold prospects/untested targets within the Company’s tenement holdings

The Offer is underwritten by entities controlled by Messrs Oscar Aamodt and Lindsay Dudfield for a total of $350,000.

This Prospectus and personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form should be read carefully and in their entirety before deciding whether or not to participate in this Offer. In particular Eligible Shareholders should consider the key risk factors outlined in section 6 of this Prospectus.

Eligible Shareholders can, in addition to their Entitlement, also apply for Shortfall Shares.

On behalf of your Board, I invite you to consider this investment opportunity and thank you for your ongoing support for our Company.

Yours faithfully,

Oscar Aamodt Non-Executive Chairman

5 PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE OFFER

5.1 Introduction

The Company is seeking to raise approximately $1,960,662 before issue costs under the Offer, a non-renounceable pro rata offer to Eligible Shareholders at a price of $0.025 per Share on the basis of 1 New Share for every 2 Existing Shares held as at the Record Date.

Entities controlled by Messrs Oscar Aamodt (the Company’s chairman) and Lindsay Dudfield (non-executive Director) have agreed to underwrite the Offer for $100,000 and $250,000 respectively. See section for 8.4 details.

5.2

Purpose of the Offer

The Directors intend to apply the proceeds from the Offer as follows:

Use of funds Underwritten Full
Amount Subscription
Exploration on the Bryah Basin Project with a particular $330,000 $1,450,000
emphasis on exploration for high-grade gold deposits.
Exploration will be dominated by follow-up RC,
targeted Aircore and shallow geochemical drilling
programs testing priority gold prospects and targets
Working Capital $0 $405,162
Costs of the Offer $20,000 $105,500
Total $350,000 $1,960,662

In the event the Company raises more than the Underwritten Amount but not full Subscription, the funds raised (after payment of expenses of the Offer) will be applied proportionally between exploration and working capital.

This table is a statement of current intentions as at the date of this Prospectus. As with any budget, intervening events (including exploration success or failure) and new circumstances have the potential to affect the way funds will be applied. The Board reserves the right to vary the way funds are applied on this basis.

5.3 Top up by Shareholders with less than a marketable parcel

As of 9 December 2013, the Company had 1,465 Shareholders, with 655 Shareholders holding less than a marketable parcel (being 13,157 Shares at the last traded price of the Company’s Shares of $0.038) ( Unmarketable Parcel Shareholder ). The large number of Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders adds significant compliance costs to the Company.

The Board has resolved that Shortfall Shares will be issued firstly to eligible Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders so that each eligible Unmarketable Parcel Shareholder will have a marketable parcel. This will allow eligible Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders who are issued Shortfall Shares to sell their holdings on market.

Page 8

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

To reduce the number of Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders, the Company may, following the Offer, undertake a sale of the Shares held by Shareholders holding less than a marketable parcel. This will simplify the Company’s share register and significantly reduce compliance costs.

No assurance is given that any sale of non-marketable parcels will take place, or the terms (including price) of any sale. Eligible Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders wishing to realise their Shares should consider applying for Shortfall Shares and then selling their Shares on market.

5.4 Effect of the Offer on the Company’s securities

The effect of the Offer will, assuming that no Options are exercised and that Entitlements are taken up in full, be that:

  • (a) cash reserves will increase by approximately $1,855,162 (after costs);

  • (b) the number of Options on issue will remain the same at 975,000; and

  • (c) the number of Shares on issue will increase from 156,852,955 to 235,279,432.

The terms of the Options on issue do not allow for the exercise price to change following a rights issue, and there will be no change to the exercise price of Options.

5.5 Consolidated capital structure

Assuming that Entitlements are taken up in full and that no Options are exercised prior to the Record Date, at the close of the Offer, the capital structure of the Company will be:

Shares
Number %
Existing Shares 156,852,955 66.67
New Shares offered under this Prospectus 78,426,477 33.33
Total Shares 235,279,432 100

5.7 Effect on control and potential dilution

Entities controlled by Messrs Oscar Aamodt (the Company’s chairman) and Lindsay Dudfield (non-executive Director) have separately agreed to underwrite the Offer for $100,000 and $250,000 respectively. See section 8.4 for terms of the underwriting.

Page 10

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

(a) Oscar Aamodt

Mr Aamodt currently has a relevant interest in 280,134 Shares, or a voting power of 0.18%. The maximum voting power he will acquire is 2.51%, assuming the Underwritten Amount is raised.

(b) Lindsay Dudfield

Mr Dudfield currently has a relevant interest in 18,114,907 Shares (including 17,469,759 Shares registered in the name of Jindalee Resources Limited, of which Mr Dudfield is the managing director, and has a voting power of 29.69% in), or a voting power of 11.55%.

The maximum voting power he will acquire is 19.99%, assuming his associates are issued approximately 7,547,305 New Shares (being the maximum number of New Shares it can be issued for Mr Dudfield’s voting power to remain below 20%) but no other Entitlement is taken up and Shortfall Shares equal to the Underwritten Amount are issued to the Underwriters.

(c) Others

As the Offer is non-renounceable, the Company has not appointed a nominee for the purposes of section 615 of the Corporations Act and Shareholders may not rely upon item 10 of section 611 of the Corporations Act to have a voting power of 20% or more.

Other than as disclosed in this Prospectus, no person’s voting power in the Company may increase to 20% or more as a result of the issue of New Shares.

(d)

Dilution

Shareholders who do not participate in the Offer will have their holdings diluted. Following is a table which sets out the dilutionary effect assuming only the Underwritten Amount is raised:

6 RISK FACTORS

An investment in the New Shares the subject of this Prospectus is highly speculative as the Company is a resource exploration company. Please consider the risks described below and the information contained in other sections of this Prospectus. You should also consider consulting with your professional advisers before deciding whether or not to apply for the New Shares.

The following is a list of the material risks that may affect the financial position of the Company, the value of an investment in the Company, as well as the Company’s operations.

6.1 Risks specific to the Offer

The minimum amount to be raised under the Offer is $350,000, being the Underwritten Amount. This amount will be sufficient to meet the costs of the Offer and limited exploration. However there is a risk that it may not be sufficient to undertake the Company’s proposed exploration program. There is a risk that, with a limited exploration program, the Company may be required to relinquish or farm-out certain of its tenements.

6.2 Company and industry risks

The risks outlined below are specific to the Company’s operations and to the resource exploration industry in which the Company operates.

(a) Going concern

The Company recorded a net loss of $2,132,950 and a net outflow from operating and investing activities of $2,348,192 for the year ending 30 June 2013. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon the Company raising additional capital, primarily under the Offer.

(b) Exploration

Whilst exploration by the Company and others justifies further exploration, the Company’s tenements carry exploration risk.

Exploration is a high risk undertaking. The Company does not give any assurance that exploration of its current projects or any future projects will result in the delineation or discovery of a significant mineral resource. Even if a significant mineral resource is identified, there can be no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

(c) Joint venture

The Company is currently, and may in the future become a party to joint venture agreements governing the exploration and development of its projects. There is a risk that one of the Company’s joint venture partners may default in their joint venture obligations or not act in the best interests of the joint venture. This may have an adverse effect on the interests and prospects of the Company.

(d) Title risk

Mining tenements are governed by the respective State legislation and each tenement is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments as well as other conditions requiring compliance. There is a risk that

Page 12

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

the Company could lose title to one or more of its tenements if tenement conditions or annual expenditure commitments are not met.

(e)

Future capital needs and additional funding

The funds raised by the Offer will primarily be used to fund exploration on the Company’s projects. There is a risk that these funds will not be sufficient to complete the proposed exploration and that further funding will be required.

The Company’s ability to raise further capital (equity or debt) within an acceptable time, of a sufficient amount and on terms acceptable to the Company will vary according to a number of factors, including prospectivity of projects (existing and future), the results of exploration, subsequent feasibility studies, development and mining, stock market and industry conditions and the price of relevant commodities and exchange rates.

No assurance can be given that future funding will be available to the Company on favourable terms (or at all). If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms the Company may not be able to further develop its projects and it may impact on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

(f) Commodity prices

Commodities prices fluctuate and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include worldwide and regional supply and demand for commodities, general world economic conditions and the outlook for interest rates, inflation and other economic factors on both a regional and global basis. These factors may have a positive or negative effect on the Company's exploration, project development and production plans and activities, together with the ability to fund those plans and activities.

(g) Environmental

The Company's projects are subject to rules and regulations regarding environmental matters and the discharge of hazardous wastes and materials. As with all mineral projects, the Company’s projects are expected to have a variety of environmental impacts should development proceed. Development of any of the Company's projects will be dependent on the Company satisfying environmental guidelines and, where required, being approved by government authorities.

The Company intends to conduct its activities in an environmentally responsible manner and in accordance with all applicable laws, but may still be subject to accidents or other unforeseen events which may compromise its environmental performance and which may have adverse financial implications.

(h) Key personnel

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the Company’s strategic management depends substantially on its senior management and key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company is one or more of these employees cease their employment.

Page 13

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

6.3 General investment risks

The risks outlined below are some of the general risks that may affect an investment in the Company.

  • (a) Securities investments and share market conditions

There are risks associated with any securities investment. The prices at which the securities trade may fluctuate in response to a number of factors.

Furthermore, the stock market, and in particular the market for exploration and mining companies may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that may be unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. These factors may materially adversely affect the market price of the securities of the Company regardless of the Company's operational performance. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company, or any return of an investment in the Company.

  • (b) Liquidity risk

The market for the Company’s Shares may be illiquid. As a consequence investors may be unable to readily exit or realise their investment.

  • (c) Economic risk

Changes in both Australia and world economic conditions may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company. Factors such as inflation, currency fluctuations, interest rates, industrial disruption and economic growth may impact on future operations and earnings.

  • (b) apply for Shortfall Shares (see section 7.3); or

  • (c) allow all or part of your Entitlement to lapse (see section 7.4).

7.2

To subscribe for all of your Entitlement

Applicants should read this Prospectus in its entirety in order to make an informed decision on the prospects of the Company and the rights attaching to the New Shares offered by this Prospectus before deciding to apply for Shares. If you do not understand this Prospectus you should consult your stockbroker, accountant or other professional adviser in order to satisfy yourself as to the contents of this Prospectus.

If you wish to subscribe for all of your Entitlement, complete the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form in accordance with the instructions set out on that form. The Entitlement and Acceptance Form sets out the number of New Shares you are entitled to subscribe for.

7.3 To apply for Shortfall Shares

Eligible Shareholders may, in addition to their Entitlement, apply for Shortfall Shares regardless of the size of their present holding by completing the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form in accordance with the instructions set out on that form. See section 8.7 for details on how Shortfall Shares will be allocated.

Surplus application moneys will be returned to Applicants as soon as practicable following the close of the Offer.

7.4 Entitlements not taken up

If you are an Eligible Shareholder and do not wish to accept all (or part) of your Entitlement, you are not obliged to do anything. You will receive no benefit or New Shares and your Entitlement will become available as Shortfall Shares.

If you wish to receive a benefit, you must take action to accept your Entitlement in accordance with the instructions above and on the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

The number of Existing Shares you hold as at the Record Date and the rights attached to those Existing Shares will not be affected if you choose not to accept any of your Entitlement.

7.5 Payment methods

Cheque, bank draft or money order

The completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form must be accompanied by a cheque, bank draft or money order made payable to ‘Alchemy Resources Limited’ and crossed ‘Not Negotiable’ for the appropriate application money in Australian dollars calculated at $0.025

Page 15

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

per New Share accepted. Your cheque, bank draft or money order must be paid in Australian currency and be drawn on an Australian branch of an Australian financial institution. The Company will present the cheque or bank draft on or around the day of receipt of the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You must ensure that your cheque account has sufficient funds to cover your payment, as your cheque will be presented for payment on receipt. If your bank dishonours your cheque your application will be rejected. Dishonoured cheques will not be represented.

If the amount of your cheque(s), bank draft(s) or money order(s) for application money (or the amount for which those cheque(s) or bank draft(s) clear in time for allocation) is insufficient to pay for the number of New Shares you have applied for in your Entitlement and Acceptance Form, you may be taken to have applied for such lower number of New Shares as your cleared application money will pay for (and to have specified that number of New Shares in your Entitlement and Acceptance Form) or your Application may be rejected.

The Entitlement and Acceptance Form must be received by the Company at the following address by no later than 5.00 pm (WST) on the Closing Date:

By Post To: By Delivery To:
Alchemy Resources Limited Alchemy Resources Limited
c/- Security Transfer Registrars Pty Ltd c/- Security Transfer Registrars Pty Ltd
PO Box 535 770 Canning Highway
Applecross WA 6953 Applecross WA 6153

BPAY

Alternatively, if you are paying by BPAY, refer to your personalised instructions on your Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Shareholders who wish to pay by BPAY must ensure that payment is received by no later than 5pm Australian Eastern Daylight Saving Time (2pm (WST)) on the Closing Date.

You should be aware that your own financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regard to electronic payment, and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment. It is your responsibility to ensure that funds submitted through BPAY are received by 5pm Australia Eastern Daylight Saving Time (2pm (WST)) on the Closing Date.

If you have more than one shareholding and consequently receive more than one Entitlement and Acceptance Form, when taking up your Entitlement in respect of one of those shareholdings only use the Customer Reference Number specific to that shareholding as set out in the applicable Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Do not use the same Customer Reference Number for more than one of your shareholdings. This can result in your application monies being applied to your Entitlement in respect of only one of your shareholdings (with the result that any application in respect of your remaining shareholdings will not be recognised as valid).

The Company shall not be responsible for any postal or delivery delays or delay in the receipt of the BPAY payment.

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

7.6 Entitlement and Acceptance Form is binding

A completed and lodged Entitlement and Acceptance Form together with a cheque, bank draft or money order for the application moneys, or by making a payment in respect of an Application by BPay, constitutes a binding application to acquire New Shares on the terms and conditions set out in this Prospectus and, once lodged, cannot be withdrawn.

By completing and returning your Entitlement and Acceptance Form with the requisite application monies, or by making a payment in respect of an Application by BPay, you will be deemed to have represented that you are an Eligible Shareholder. In addition, you will also be deemed to have represented and warranted on behalf of yourself or each person on whose account you are acting that the law in your place of residence and/or where you have been given the Prospectus, does not prohibit you from being given the Prospectus and that you:

  • (a) agree to be bound by the terms of the Offer;

  • (b) declare that all details and statements in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form are complete and accurate;

  • (c) declare that you are over 18 years of age and have full legal capacity and power to perform all your rights and obligations under the Entitlement and Acceptance Form;

  • (d) authorise the Company and its respective officers or agents, to do anything on your behalf necessary for the New Shares to be issued to you, including to act on instructions of the Company’s share registry upon using the contact details set out in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form;

  • (e) declare that you are the current registered holder of Shares and are an Australian or New Zealand resident, and you are not in the United States or a US Person, or acting for the account or benefit of a US Person;

  • (f) acknowledge that the information contained in, or accompanying, the Prospectus is not investment or financial product advice or a recommendation that New Shares are suitable for you given your investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs; and

  • (g) acknowledge that the New Shares have not, and will not be, registered under the securities laws in any other jurisdictions outside Australia and New Zealand and accordingly, the New Shares may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except in accordance with an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of applicable securities laws in particular the US Securities Act.

Page 17

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

The Entitlement and Acceptance Form does not need to be signed to be a valid application. An Application will be deemed to have been accepted by the Company upon allotment of the New Shares.

If the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is not completed correctly or if the accompanying payment of the application moneys is for the wrong amount, it may still be treated as a valid application for New Shares. The Directors’ decision whether to treat an acceptance as valid and how to construe, amend or complete the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is final. However, an Applicant will not be treated as having applied for more Shares than is indicated by the amount of the cheque for the application moneys.

8 DETAILS OF THE OFFER

8.1 Shares offered for subscription

By this Prospectus the Company makes a non-renounceable pro rata offer of 1 New Share for every 2 Existing Shares held as at the Record Date at a price of $0.025 per New Share to raise up to approximately $1,960,662 before issue costs ( Offer ). Fractional entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

The Offer is only open to Eligible Shareholders. The Company reserves the right to reject any application that it believes comes from a person who is not an Eligible Shareholder.

Details of how to apply for New Shares are set out at section 7.

All New Shares offered under this Prospectus will rank equally with Existing Shares. The rights and liabilities of the New Shares offered under this Prospectus are summarised in section 9.

8.2 Minimum Subscription

There is no minimum subscription for the Offer.

8.3

Acceptances

This Offer may be accepted in whole or in part prior to the Closing Date subject to the rights of the Company to extend the Offer period.

Instructions for accepting your Entitlement are set out in section 7 and on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form which accompanies this Prospectus.

The Directors reserve the right to scale back an Application where they are aware that issuing Shares under the Application will result in a person breaching section 606 of the Corporations Act (the “20% rule”).

8.4 Underwriting

Cardinal Management Services Pty Ltd, an entity controlled by Mr Oscar Aamodt (the Company’s chairman) and Lindsay Dudfield and Yvonne Dudfield as trustee of the LG Dudfield Pension Fund, an entity controlled by Lindsay Dudfield (non-executive Director) have severally agreed to underwrite the Offer for up to 4,000,000 and 10,000,000 New Shares ( Underwritten Shares ), or up to $100,000 and $250,000 respectively, in accordance with the Underwriting Agreements. The Underwriters’ obligation is reduced only once the Company receives Applications in excess of the difference between the total number of New Shares offered and the number of New Shares underwritten by each Underwriter.

The Underwriting Agreements are on the same terms. The Underwriters will not be paid a fee. The Company will be required to reimburse each Underwriter for all of the reasonable costs incurred by the Underwriters in relation to the Offer.

In accordance with the Underwriting Agreements and as is customary with these types of arrangements:

  • (a) the Company has (subject to certain limitations) agreed to indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, employees, advisers and related bodies corporate, and

Page 19

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

the officers, employees and advisers of any of its related bodies corporate against losses suffered or incurred in connection with the Offer;

  • (b) the Company and the Underwriters have given representations, warranties and undertakings in connection with (among other things) the conduct of the Offer;

  • (c) each Underwriter may (in certain circumstances, including having regard to the materiality of the relevant event) terminate their Underwriting Agreement and be released from their obligations under it on the occurrence of certain events, including (but not limited to) where:

  • (i) there are adverse changes or disruptions to the financial markets of key countries or hostilities commence or escalate in key countries;

  • (ii) the S&P/ASX 200 Index is on any two consecutive trading days prior to the allotment date more than 15% below the level of that Index at the close of normal trading on the trading day before the date the Underwriting Agreements were signed;

  • (iii) there is an adverse change, or an event occurs which is likely to give rise to an adverse change, in the financial position or performance, shareholder’s equity, profits, losses, results, condition, operations or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries; or

  • (iv) the daily average of the VWAP of the Company’s Shares as quoted by the ASX over a five day period is less than $0.025.

The Underwriters are related parties of the Company for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act. The Directors, other than Messrs Aamodt and Dudfield, consider the terms of the Underwriting Agreements to be reasonable in the circumstances as if the Underwriters and the Company were dealing on arm’s length terms. For that reason, Shareholder approval was not sought for the Underwriting Agreements. Messrs Aamodt and Dudfield were not involved in Board deliberations in relation to the terms of the Underwriting Agreements.

8.5 Entitlement to Offer

The Offer is made to Eligible Shareholders, who are those Shareholders that:

  • (a) are the registered holder of Shares as at 7pm (AEDT) on the Record Date; and

  • (b) have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand.

8.6 Rights trading

The Offer is non-renounceable. This means that the rights of Eligible Shareholders to subscribe for New Shares under this Prospectus are not transferable and there will be no trading of rights on ASX. Eligible Shareholders who choose not to take up their rights will receive no benefit and their shareholding in the Company will be diluted as a result.

8.7 Shortfall Shares

Any Shares not applied for under the Offer are Shortfall Shares. Subject to the terms set out below, the Directors reserve the right to issue any Shortfall Shares at their discretion within 3 months after the Closing Date ( Shortfall Offer ).

Page 20

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

The Shortfall Offer is, to the extent it is made in Australia, made under this Prospectus. To the extent the Shortfall Offer is made outside Australia, the Shortfall Offer is made without disclosure, a prospectus, lodgement, filing or registration, or other requirements of any applicable securities law, and only in circumstances where it is lawful to do so (such as to institutional or sophisticated investors).

Eligible Shareholders may apply for Shortfall Shares by completing the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form in accordance with the instructions set out on that form. Other investors who are not Eligible Shareholders may apply for Shortfall Shares using the Shortfall Application Form attached to this Prospectus. Persons outside Australia doing so represent to the Company that they can apply for Shortfall Shares in circumstances which do not require the offer for Shortfall Shares or this Prospectus to be registered.

It is possible that there may be few or no Shortfall Shares available for issue, depending on the level of take up of Entitlements by Shareholders. The Company will allocate Shortfall Shares as follows:

  • (a) firstly, to Shareholders who apply for Shortfall Shares and who hold less than a marketable parcel (to the extent required for them to each have a marketable parcel); and

  • (b) then, at the Directors’ discretion.

Subject to the above, the Directors reserve the right at their absolute discretion to reject any application for Shortfall Shares or to issue a lesser number of Shortfall Shares than that applied for, and it is an express term of the Shortfall Offer that applicants for Shortfall Shares will be bound to accept a lesser number of Shortfall Shares allocated to them than applied for. If a lesser number is allocated, excess application money will be refunded without interest as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.

8.8 Offer outside Australia and New Zealand

This Prospectus does not constitute an offer of securities in any jurisdiction where, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to issue the Prospectus or make the Offer. No action has been taken to register or qualify the New Shares or the Offer or otherwise to permit an offering of the New Shares in any jurisdiction outside Australia and New Zealand.

This document is not for publication or distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States of America (including its territories and possessions, any state of the US and the District of Columbia). This document is not an offer of securities for sale into the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, US Persons. The securities referred to herein have not been and will not be registered under the US Securities Act of 1933 , as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, US Persons. No public offering of securities is being made in the United States.

Recipients may not send or otherwise distribute this Prospectus or the Entitlement and Acceptance Form to any person outside Australia or New Zealand.

8.9 Treatment of Overseas Shareholders

Given the small number of Shareholders with registered addresses outside Australia or New Zealand and the cost of complying with applicable regulations in those jurisdictions, the Company has decided that it would be unreasonable to extend the Offer to any

Page 21

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

Shareholder, as at the Record Date, whose registered address is not situated in Australia and New Zealand. The Prospectus will not be sent to those Shareholders.

The Offer contained in this Prospectus to Eligible Shareholders with registered addresses in New Zealand is made in reliance on the Securities Act (Overseas Companies) Exemption Notice 2002 (New Zealand). Members of the public in New Zealand who are not existing Shareholders on the Record Date are not entitled to apply for any New Shares.

Recipients may not send or otherwise distribute this Prospectus or the Entitlement and Acceptance Form to any person outside Australia or New Zealand (other than to Eligible Shareholders).

8.10 Beneficial holders, nominees, trustees and custodians

The foreign selling restrictions under the Offer summarised in section 8.9 of this Prospectus apply to the underlying beneficial holder. Nominees, trustees and custodians must not apply on behalf of any beneficial holder that would not itself be an Eligible Shareholder. Shareholders who are nominees, trustees or custodians are advised to seek independent advice as to how they should proceed. Shareholders who hold Shares on behalf of persons whose registered address is not in Australia or New Zealand are responsible for ensuring that applying for New Shares does not breach securities laws in the relevant overseas jurisdictions.

Nominees and custodians that hold Shares should note that the Offer is available only to Eligible Shareholders. The Company is not required to determine whether or not any registered holder is acting as a nominee or the identity or residence of any beneficial owners of securities. If any nominee or custodian is acting on behalf of a foreign person, that holder, in dealing with its beneficiary, will need to assess whether indirect participation by the beneficiary in the Offer is compatible with applicable foreign laws.

8.11 Allotment and application money

New Shares will be issued only after all application money has been received and ASX has granted permission for the New Shares to be quoted. It is expected that New Shares will be issued on 4 February 2014 and normal trading of the New Shares on ASX is expected to commence on 5 February 2014.

All application moneys will be deposited into a separate bank account of the Company and held in trust for Applicants until the Shares are issued or application moneys returned. Any interest that accrues will be retained by the Company and will not be paid to Applicants.

8.12 Quotation

The Company will apply to ASX within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus for quotation of the New Shares offered by this Prospectus on ASX. If ASX does not grant permission for the quotation of the New Shares offered under this Prospectus within 3 months after the date of this Prospectus, or such longer period as modified by ASIC, none of the New Shares offered by this Prospectus will be allotted or issued. In these circumstances, all Applications will be dealt with in accordance with the Corporations Act including the return of all application moneys without interest.

A decision by ASX to grant official quotation of the New Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of ASX's view as to the merits of the Company or of the New Shares.

Page 22

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

Quotation, if granted, of the New Shares offered by this Prospectus will commence as soon as practicable after statements of holdings of the New Shares are dispatched.

8.13 Market prices of Existing Shares on ASX

The highest and lowest market sale price of the Existing Shares, which are on the same terms and conditions as the New Shares being offered under this Prospectus, during the 3 months immediately preceding the lodgment of this Prospectus with the ASIC, and the last market sale price on the date before the lodgment date of this Prospectus, are set out below.

3 month high 3 month low Last market sale price
Price
$0.065 on 15 Oct 2013
$0.038 on 4 Dec 2013 $0.038 on 11 Dec 2013

8.14 CHESS

The Company participates in the Clearing House Electronic Subregister System ( CHESS ). CHESS is operated by ASX Settlement Pty Ltd ( ASPL ), a wholly owned subsidiary of ASX.

Under CHESS, the Company does not issue certificates to investors. Instead, security holders will receive a statement of their holdings in the Company, including New Shares issued under this Prospectus. If an investor is broker sponsored, ASPL will send a CHESS statement.

The CHESS statement will set out the number of New Shares issued under this Prospectus, provide details of your holder identification number and give the participation identification number of the sponsor.

If you are registered on the issuer sponsored sub register, your statement will be dispatched by the Company’s share registrar and will contain the number of New Shares issued to you under this Prospectus and your security holder reference number.

A CHESS statement or issuer sponsored statement will routinely be sent to Shareholders at the end of any calendar month during which the balance of their shareholding changes. Shareholders may request a statement at any other time, however, a charge may be made for additional statements.

8.15 Taxation and duty implications

The Directors do not consider that it is appropriate to give Shareholders advice regarding the taxation consequences of the Company conducting the Offer or Shareholders applying for New Shares under this Prospectus, as it is not possible to provide a comprehensive summary of the possible taxation positions of Shareholders. The Company, its advisers and officers, do not accept any responsibility or liability for any taxation consequences to Shareholders in the Offer. Shareholders should, therefore, consult their own professional tax adviser in connection with the taxation implications of the Offer.

No brokerage or stamp duty is payable by Applicants in respect of Applications for New Shares under this Prospectus.

Page 23

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

8.16 Privacy

The Company collects information about each Applicant provided on an Entitlement and Acceptance Form for the purposes of processing the Application and, if the Application is successful, to administer the Applicant’s security holding in the Company.

By submitting an Entitlement and Acceptance Form, each Applicant agrees that the Company may use the information provided by an Applicant on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form for the purposes set out in this privacy disclosure statement and may disclose it for those purposes to the Share Registry, the Company’s related body corporates, agents, contractors and third party service providers, including mailing houses and professional advisors, and to ASX and regulatory authorities.

If an Applicant becomes a Shareholder, the Corporations Act requires the Company to include information about the Shareholder (including name, address and details of the Shares held) in its public register. The information contained in the Company’s public register must remain there even if that person ceases to be a Shareholder. Information contained in the Company’s register is also used to facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications (including the Company’s financial results, annual reports and other information that the Company may wish to communicate to its security holders) and compliance by the Company with legal and regulatory requirements.

If you do not provide the information required on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, the Company may not be able to accept or process your Application. An Applicant has the right to gain access to the information that the Company holds about that person subject to certain exceptions under law. A fee may be charged for access. Such requests must be made in writing to the Company’s registered office.

9 RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SHARES

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares are:

  • detailed in the Constitution, a copy of which can be inspected, free of charge, at the registered office of the Company during normal business hours; and

  • regulated by the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules and the general law.

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

(a) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at a general meeting of members every member has one vote on a show of hands and one vote per Share on a poll. Voting may be in person or by proxy, attorney or representative.

(b) Dividends

Subject to the rights of holders of shares issued with any special rights (at present there are none), the profits of the Company which the Board may from time to time determine to distribute by way of dividend are divisible to each share of a class on which the Board resolves to pay a dividend in proportion to the amount for the time being paid on a share bears to the total issue price of the share. All Shares currently on issue and the shares to be issued under this Prospectus are fully paid Shares.

(c) Future issues of securities

Subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, the Directors may issue, grant options over, or otherwise dispose of unissued shares in the Company at the times and on the terms that the Directors think proper and a share may be issued with preferential or special rights.

(d) Transfer of Shares

A shareholder may transfer Shares by a market transfer in accordance with any computerised or electronic system established or recognised by ASX for the purpose of facilitating transfers in Shares or by an instrument in writing in a form approved by ASX or the Board.

(e) Meetings and notices

Each shareholder is entitled to receive notice of, and to attend, general meetings for the Company and to receive all notices, accounts and other documents required to be sent to shareholders under the Constitution, the Corporations Act or the Listing Rules. Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with the Corporations Act.

(f) Liquidation rights

The Company has one class of shares on issue, ordinary shares, which rank equally in liquidation.

Page 25

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

(g) Variation of rights

Subject to the Listing Rules, the rights attached to the Shares may be varied with the consent in writing of shareholders holding three-quarters of the Shares or by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares in accordance with the Corporations Act

(h) Election of directors

There must be a minimum of 3 but not more than 10 Directors. At every annual general meeting one third of the Directors (rounded to the nearest whole number) must retire from office. Any Director who would have held office for more than 3 years if that Director remains in office until the next general meeting must retire. These retirement rules do not apply to certain appointments including the managing director.

(i) Indemnities

To the extent permitted by law the Company must indemnify each past and present Director and secretary against any liability incurred by that person as an officer of the Company and any legal costs incurred in defending an action in respect of such liability.

(j) Winding up

Subject to the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules and any rights or restrictions attached to a class of shares, on a winding up of the Company any surplus must be divided among the shareholders of the Company.

(k) Shareholder liability

The New Shares are fully paid Shares, they are not subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(l) Alteration to the Constitution

The Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. At least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

(m) Listing Rules

If the Company is admitted to trading on the Official List, then despite anything in the Constitution, if the Listing Rules prohibit an act being done, the act must not be done. Nothing in the Constitution prevents an act being done that the Listing Rules require to be done. If the Listing Rules require an act to be done or not to be done, authority is given for that act to be done or not to be done (as the case may be). If the Listing Rules require the Constitution to contain a provision and it does not contain such a provision, the Constitution is deemed to contain that provision. If the Listing Rules require the Constitution not to contain a provision and it contains such a provision, the Constitution is deemed not to contain that provision. If a provision of the Constitution is inconsistent with the Listing Rules, the Constitution is deemed not to contain that provision to the extent of the inconsistency.

10 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

10.1 Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a ‘disclosing entity’ (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company's securities. The New Shares which will be issued pursuant to this Prospectus are in the same class of Shares that have been quoted on the official list of the ASX during the 12 months prior to the issue of this Prospectus.

This Prospectus is a "transaction specific prospectus" to which the special content rules under section 713 of the Corporations Act apply. That provision allows the issue of a more concise prospectus in relation to an offer of securities in a class which has been continuously quoted by ASX in the three months prior to the date of the prospectus. In general terms "transaction specific prospectuses" are only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of New Shares on the Company and the rights attaching to the New Shares. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the period from lodgment of the Company’s annual financial statements of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2013 to the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

Page 27

Alchemy Resources Limited Prospectus

  • (i) the annual financial statements of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2013 being the last financial statements for a financial year, of the Company lodged with the ASIC before the issue of this Prospectus; and

  • (ii) any continuous disclosure notices given by the Company after the lodgment of the financial statements referred to in paragraph (i) and before the lodgment of this Prospectus with ASIC.

Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be obtained free of charge from the Company’s registered office during normal office hours.

The Company has lodged the following announcements with ASX since the 2013 audited financial statements:

Date Description of Announcement
26-Nov-13 AGM Presentation
26-Nov-13 Results of Annual General Meeting
11-Nov-13 Bryah Basin Exploration Update
