LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Shareholder

On behalf of your Directors, I am pleased to invite you to participate in this non-renounceable pro-rata 1-for-4 Entitlement Offer at an issue price of $0.015 per Share to raise approximately $1,321,258 (before payment of costs).

The issue price represents a discount of approximately 8.11% per cent to the 15 day VWAP of the Shares prior to the date of this Prospectus, providing Shareholders with an opportunity to increase their holdings at an attractive price.

Eligible Shareholders also have the opportunity to subscribe for any Shares that are not subscribed for under the Entitlement Offer pursuant to the Shortfall Offer under this Prospectus, with Eligible Shareholders who currently hold less than Marketable Parcels of Shares to receive priority under the Shortfall Offer.

The Company has been successful in its application to participate in the Junior Mineral Exploration Incentive Scheme ( JMEI ) for the 2018 Financial Year and has applied to participate in the JMEI for the 2019 Financial Year. Eligible Shareholders who participate in the Offer may therefore be eligible to be issued with JMEI credits. Refer to Sections 1.4 and 4.1(b) for additional information.

The LG Dudfield Pension Fund, my self-managed superannuation fund, has agreed to partially underwrite the Offer up to $200,000 (see Section 5.2 of the Prospectus for a summary of the Underwriting Agreement). In addition, I intend to take up my entitlements under the Offer.

Use of Funds

Subject to the satisfactory completion of the Offer, funds raised under the Entitlement Offer will be primarily used to advance the recently acquired West Lynn Nickel-Cobalt Project (including reporting a maiden resource estimate in accordance with the JORC Code 2012 Edition and undertaking initial metallurgical test work) and to fund ground geophysics and further drilling at the Overflow Project to follow up encouraging gold and base metal intercepts, as well as for general working capital and the costs of the Offer.

The Board recommends that you take up your Entitlement under the Offer after reading this Prospectus in its entirety including the risks outlined in Section 4.

The Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable and therefore your Entitlements will not be tradeable on the ASX or otherwise transferable. Full details of the Offer are set out in this Prospectus.

I look forward to your continued support and on updating you on the Company’s progress.

Yours faithfully

INVESTMENT OVERVIEW

This Section is intended to highlight key information for potential investors. It is an overview only, and is not intended to replace the Prospectus. Potential investors should read the Prospectus in full before deciding to invest in Securities.

Key Information Further
Information
Transaction specific prospectus
This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of
continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and
has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations
Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public
offering prospectus. In making representations in this Prospectus regard
has been had to the fact that the Company is a disclosing entity for the
purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters may reasonably
be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom
potential investors may consult.
Section 5.3
Risk factors
Potential investors should be aware that subscribing for Shares in the
Company involves a number of risks. The key risk factors of which
investors should be aware are set out in Section 4, including (but not
limited to) risks in respect of:

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

Future capital needs and additional funding- The Company’s
future capital needs and additional funding may be required to
complete the proposed exploration program.

Securities investments and share market conditions- As a junior
explorer with no production or income, the Company is exposed to
general market and economic condition risks.
Section 4
Entitlement Offer
This Prospectus is for a non-renounceable entitlement issue of one new
Share for every four existing Shares held by Eligible Shareholders on the
Record Date at an issue price of $0.015 per new Share to raise up to
approximately $1,321,258 (before costs).
Section 1.1
Underwriting
The Offer is partially underwritten by the LG Dudfield Pension Fund, up
to $200,000, being a maximum of 13,333,333 Shares.
The Underwriter is a related party of the Company by virtue of being
controlled by Mr Lindsay Dudfield, a Director of the Company. The
Company, for the reasons outlined in Section 1.8, believes that the
Underwriting Agreement was negotiated at arm's length and has
therefore not sought Shareholder approval.
Sections 1.7,
1.8 and 5.2

Key Information Further
Information
Shortfall Offer
Any Entitlement not taken up pursuant to the Entitlement Offer will
form the Shortfall Offer.
Eligible Shareholders may apply for Shares under the Shortfall Offer
subject to such applications being received by the Closing Date.
The issue price for each new Share to be issued under the Shortfall
Offer shall be $0.015 being the price at which new Shares have been
offered under the Entitlement Offer.
The allocation policy for the Shortfall Offer is outlined in Section 1.2.
There is no guarantee that Eligible Shareholders will receive new
Shares applied for under the Shortfall Offer.
Any Shortfall Shares will be allocated firstly to Eligible Shareholders
who apply for Shortfall Shares and who currently hold a less than
Marketable Parcel of Shares to increase their holding to a Marketable
Parcel. Any remaining Shortfall Shares will then be allocated to all
Eligible Shareholders who apply for Shortfall Shares, and then to the
Underwriter.
Section 1.2
Eligible Shareholders
The Offer is made to Eligible Shareholders only. Eligible Shareholders
are those Shareholders who:

are the registered holder of Shares as at 5.00pm (WST) on the
Record Date; and

have a registered address in Australia or, subject to the offer
restrictions in Section 1.18, New Zealand.
Sections 1.17,
1.18 and 1.19
Use of funds
Funds raised under the Offer are intended to be used primarily to
advance the recently acquired West Lynn Nickel-Cobalt Project
(including reporting a maiden resource in accordance with the JORC
Code (2012 Edition) and undertaking initial metallurgical test work) and
to fund ground geophysics and further drilling at the Overflow Project,
as well as for general working capital and the costs of the Offer.
Section 1.3
Junior Mineral Exploration Incentive Scheme
The Company has applied to be a participant in the Federal
Government's Junior Mineral Exploration Incentive (JMEI) scheme for
the tax year ending 30 June 2019.
Subject to the Company receiving notification from the Australian Tax
Office (ATO) that its application has been accepted and that it has
been allocated JMEI credits, the JMEI scheme allows people who are
required to lodge a tax return in Australia and who apply for and are
issued Shares as part of the Company's capital raising activities
between 1 July 2018 and 30 June 2019 (JMEI Eligible Shareholders) to
receive JMEI credits from the ATO. JMEI credits entitle JMEI Eligible
Shareholders to refundable tax offsets (for individual shareholders or
superannuation funds) or franking credits (for companies).
The JMEI credits will be issued after the lodgement of the Company's 30
Sections 1.4 and
4.1(b)

Information
June 2019 tax return. JMEI Eligible Shareholders are expected to be
notified by the Company of their JMEI credit entitlement in the
approved form by 30 September 2019, and the JMEI credits will apply
to their income tax assessment for the year ended 30 June 2019.
Receiving a JMEI credit could have tax consequences and JMEI Eligible
Shareholders should obtain independent tax advice specific to their
personal circumstances.
Please refer to Section 4.1(b) for disclosure regarding the risks.
Effect on control of the Company
The Company is of the view that the Offer will not affect the control of
the Company. Shareholders should note that if they do not participate
in the Offer, their holdings will be diluted. Examples of how the
dilution may impact Shareholders are set out in a table in Section 1.10.
No other investor or existing Shareholder will hold a voting power
greater than 20% as a result of the Offer.
In the unlikely event that no Entitlements are taken up with the
exception of Mr Dudfield's Entitlement (including the Underwriter's
Entitlement, but excluding any participation by Jindalee Resources
Limited), and the Underwriter is required to subscribe for all the
Underwritten Shares, the maximum voting power of Mr Dudfield,
(including the Underwriter) will be approximately 10.44%.

1. Details of the Offer

1.1 Entitlement Offer

The Company is making a non-renounceable pro-rata offer of ordinary fully paid Shares at an issue price of $0.015 each to Eligible Shareholders on the basis of one Share for every four Shares held at 5:00pm (WST) on the Record Date ( Entitlement Offer ).

The market price of Shares at the date of this Prospectus is such that it is unlikely that any of the existing Options will be exercised before the Record Date. On the basis that no existing Options are exercised prior to the Record Date, the Entitlement Offer is for a maximum of 88,083,896 Shares, to raise up to approximately $1,321,258 (before costs).

Where the determination of the Entitlement of any Eligible Shareholder results in a fraction of a Share, such fraction will be rounded up to the nearest whole Share.

Further details on the rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares under the Offer are contained in Section 5.1.

1.2 Shortfall Offer

Any Entitlements not taken up pursuant to the Entitlement Offer will form the Shortfall Offer.

The Shortfall Offer is a separate offer made pursuant to this Prospectus. The issue price of any Shortfall Shares will be $0.015 each, which is the issue price at which Shares have been offered to Eligible Shareholders under the Entitlement Offer. Shortfall Shares will only be issued if the Entitlement Offer is undersubscribed and will only be issued to the extent necessary to make up any shortfall in subscriptions.

The allocation policy for the issuance of Shortfall will be as follows:

  • (a) To the extent there is a Shortfall ( First Shortfall ), each Eligible Shareholder with a less than Marketable Parcel who has validly applied for Shortfall Shares before the closing date of the Entitlement Offer will be allocated the number of Shortfall Shares necessary to bring their shareholding to a Marketable Parcel. If an Eligible Shareholder has made a valid application for Shortfall Shares but has applied for a lower number of Shortfall Shares than the amount of Shares which that shareholder would otherwise be allocated under this process, that Shareholder will be allocated the lower amount.

  • (b) If, following the allocation of the First Shortfall, there remains a Shortfall between the allocated new Shares and the total number of new Shares proposed to be issued under the Entitlement Offer ( Second Shortfall ), then each Eligible Shareholder who has validly applied for Shortfall Shares before the closing date of the Entitlement Offer will be allocated their proportionate share of the Second Shortfall in proportion to their Shareholding as at the Record Date. If an Eligible Shareholder has made a valid application for Shortfall Shares but has applied for a lower number of Shortfall Shares than the amount of Shares which that shareholder would otherwise be allocated under this process, that Shareholder will be allocated the lower amount.

1

  • (c) If, following the allocation of the Second Shortfall, there remains a Shortfall between the allocated new Shares and the total number of new Shares proposed to be issued under the Entitlement Offer ( Third Shortfall ), the above allocation process will be repeated in respect of the Third Shortfall and any subsequent shortfalls until either all the new Shares proposed to be issued under the Entitlement Offer have been allocated or all valid applications for Shortfall Shares have been satisfied in full.

  • (d) If, following allocation of the Third Shortfall and any subsequent shortfalls in accordance with the above, there remains a Shortfall between the allocated new Shares and the total number of new Shares proposed to be issued under the Entitlement Offer ( Remaining Shortfall ), that Remaining Shortfall will be subscribed for by the Underwriter pursuant to the Underwritten Agreement, to a maximum of the Underwritten Amount.

  • (e) If the Remaining Shortfall exceeds the Underwritten Amount, the balance of the Remaining Shortfall may be allocated at the discretion of the Directors within the three month period following the closing date of the Entitlement Offer.

Notwithstanding the above, no Shortfall Shares will be allocated or issued to any related party of the Company (including Directors and their associates (unless pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement)) or to any person to the extent that the Company is aware that to do so would result in a breach of the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules or any other relevant legislation or law, including without limitation, a breach of section 606 of the Corporations Act.

Applications by Eligible Shareholders for Shortfall Shares are to be made by completing the appropriate section on their Application Form or by making payment for such New Shares using BPAY® (refer to Section 2.3).

Excess Application Monies for the Shortfall Offer will be refunded without interest.

It is a term of the Shortfall Offer that, should the Company scale back applications for Shortfall Shares in accordance with the allocation policy described above, the Applicant will be bound to accept such lesser number allocated to them.

Subject to the above, Directors reserve the right to issue the Shortfall at their discretion.

New Shares issued under the Shortfall Offer will be issued as fully paid ordinary shares and will rank equally in all respects with the existing Shares on issue. Further details on the rights and liabilities attaching to the new Shares proposed to be issued under the Shortfall Offer are contained in Section 5.1.

1.3 Use of funds

Completion of the Offer will result in an increase in cash at hand of approximately $1,321,258 (before payment of costs).

The above is a statement of current intentions at the date of this Prospectus. Intervening events and new circumstances have the potential to affect the manner in which the funds are ultimately applied. The Board reserves the right to alter the way the funds are applied on this basis.

The amounts and timing of the actual expenditures and investments may vary significantly and will depend on numerous factors including the success of exploration activities, access conditions, weather and any changes in the business and economic environment.

1.4 Junior Mineral Exploration Incentive Scheme

The Company has applied to be a participant in the Federal Government's Junior Mineral Exploration Incentive ( JMEI ) scheme for the tax year ending 30 June 2019. Subject to the Company receiving notification from the Australian Tax Office ( ATO ) that its application has been accepted and that it has been allocated JMEI credits, the JMEI scheme allows JMEI Eligible Shareholders who applied for, and are issued, Shares in the Company's capital raising activities between 1 July 2018 and 30 June 2019 to receive JMEI credits, on a pro-rata basis, from the ATO. JMEI credits entitle JMEI Eligible Shareholders to refundable tax offsets (for individual shareholders or superannuation funds) or franking credits (for companies).

The JMEI credits will be issued after the lodgement of the Company's 30 June 2019 tax return. JMEI Eligible Shareholders are expected to be notified by the Company of

3

their JMEI credit entitlement in the approved form by 30 September 2019, and the JMEI credits will apply to their income tax assessment for the year ended 30 June 2019.

Receiving a JMEI credit could have tax consequences and JMEI Eligible Shareholders should obtain independent tax advice specific to their personal circumstances. Refer to Section 4.1(b) regarding the risks associated with the potential participation in the JMEI Scheme.

1.5 Opening and Closing Dates

For the Entitlement Offer, the Company will accept Entitlement and Acceptance Forms from the date it dispatches the Prospectus and Entitlement and Acceptance Forms until 5:00pm (WST) on Monday, 9 July 2018 or such other date as the Directors in their absolute discretion shall determine, subject to the requirements of the Listing Rules ( Closing Date ).

The Shortfall Offer will remain open for a period of up to three months from the Closing Date (or such shorter period as determined by the Directors), however Eligible Shareholders who wish to participate in the Shortfall Offer must submit their Applications to the Company by no later than the Closing Date.

1.6

Minimum subscription

There is no minimum subscription for the Entitlement Offer.

1.7

Underwriting

L Dudfield and Y Dudfield as trustees for the LG Dudfield Pension Fund have been appointed as the underwriter ( Underwriter ) to partially underwrite the Offer up to $200,000 ( Underwritten Amount ), being 13,333,333 Shares ( Underwritten Shares ).

A summary of the Underwriting Agreement is in Section 5.2.

Please refer to Section 1.2 for details regarding the allocation policy of the Shortfall.

1.8 Related Party Underwriting

The Underwriter is a related party of the Company by virtue of being controlled by Mr Lindsay Dudfield, a Director of the Company.

The Company has not sought Shareholder approval for the execution of the Underwriting Agreement on the basis that it contains terms that are considered more favourable to the Company than those available from a third party dealing at arm's length and therefore falls within the exception in section 210 of the Corporations Act.

In support of this, the Company advises that:

  • (a) Mr Dudfield has been excluded from any discussions by the Board in relation to the Underwriting Agreement;

  • (b) the Company considered a number of alternative potential independent underwriters but the terms offered by the Underwriter were the most favourable;

  • (c) the Underwriter will not benefit from the proposed use of capital, other than as a holder of Shares; and

4

(d) it is the view of the Directors that the Offer period gives Shareholders reasonable opportunity to accept the Offer.

1.9 Effect on control of the Company

(a) Summary

The total number of Shares proposed to be issued under the Offer is 88,083,896 which will constitute 20% of the Shares on issue following completion of the Offer (assuming no other Shares are issued or Securities exercised or converted to Shares prior to the Record Date).

The Company is of the view that the Offer will not affect the control (as defined by section 50AA of the Corporations Act) of the Company.

No nominee has been appointed for Ineligible Foreign Shareholders under section 615 of the Corporations Act and, as such, Eligible Shareholders will not be able to rely on the exception for rights issues in item 10 of section 611 of the Corporations Act. Accordingly, when an Eligible Shareholder applies for some or all of their Entitlement, they must have regard to section 606 of the Corporations Act. Eligible Shareholders who may be at risk of exceeding the 20% voting power threshold in section 606 as a result of acceptance of their Entitlement should seek professional advice before completing and returning their Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

(b) Majority Shareholder

The Company's largest Shareholder is Northern Star Resources Limited (ASX: NST ), which currently has a voting power in the Company of 14.19%. NST has indicated its intention to subscribe for a maximum of 12,500,000 Shares (equivalent to $187,500) under the Offer. In the unlikely event that NST is the only participant in the Entitlement Offer and it subscribes for its full Entitlement of 12,500,000 Shares, that is, $187,500, its voting power would increase to 17.13%. The Company will not issue Shares to NST under the Shortfall if it may result in NST acquiring a voting power in excess of the 20% threshold in section 606 of the Corporations Act.

(c) Other Shareholders

No other Shareholder’s voting power in the Company may increase to 20% or above as a result of the Offer.

(d) Underwriter

The Underwriter is an entity controlled by Mr Dudfield, a Director of the Company and Mr Dudfield and his associated entities are presently substantial Shareholders of the Company.

As noted above in Section 1.2, the Underwritten Shares will only be allocated after the Shortfall Offer.

Mr Dudfield and his associated entities (excluding Jindalee Resources Limited) currently have a voting power in the Company of 5.76%. Mr Dudfield has indicated his intention, and that of his associated entities, to subscribe for a maximum of 5,071,759 Shares (equivalent to $76,076) under the Offer. In the unlikely event that Mr Dudfield and his associated entities (excluding Jindalee Resources Limited) are the only participants in the Entitlement Offer and the LG Dudfield Pension Fund subscribes for all the Underwritten

5

Shares under the Underwriting Agreement his voting power would increase to 10.44%. If Jindalee Resources Limited also subscribes for its full Entitlement, and this is included with Mr Dudfield's voting power, the maximum voting power would increase to 16.14%. The Company will not issue Shares to Mr Dudfield if it may result in Mr Dudfield or his associated entities acquiring a voting power in excess of the 20% threshold in section 606 of the Corporations Act.

1.10 Potential dilution

Shareholders should note that if they do not participate in the Offer, their holdings are likely to be diluted (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus). Examples of how the dilution may impact Shareholders are set out in the table below:

Holder Holding as at

Shareholder 3 11,250,000 3.19 2,812,500 11,250,000 2.55
Shareholder 4 5,500,000 1.56 1,375,000 5,500,000 1.25
Shareholder 5 2,000,000 0.57 500,000 2,000,000 0.45

Notes:

  1. The dilution effect shown in the table is the maximum percentage on the assumption that those Entitlements not accepted are placed under the Shortfall Offer. In the event all Entitlements are not accepted and some or all of the resulting Shortfall is not subsequently placed, the dilution effect for each Shareholder not accepting their Entitlement would be a lesser percentage.

1.11 Substantial Shareholders

Based on available information as at the date of this Prospectus, those persons which together with their associates have a voting power in 5% or more of the Shares on issue are set out below:

Substantial Shareholder Number of Shares Voting power %

Mr Lindsay Dudfield2 20,287,036 5.76

Note:

  1. NST has indicated its intention to subscribe for a maximum of 12,500,000 Shares under the Offer.

  2. See Section 5.8(b) for details for Mr Dudfield's security holdings. See Sections 1.7 to 1.9 for details of the Underwriting Agreement.

1.12

No rights trading

The rights to Shares under the Entitlement Offer are non-renounceable. Accordingly, there will be no trading of rights on ASX and you may not dispose of your Entitlement

6

to any other party. If you do not take up your Entitlement to Shares under the Entitlement Offer by the Closing Date, the Entitlement Offer to you will lapse.

1.13 Issue Date and dispatch

All Securities under the Offer are expected to be issued on or before the date specified in the proposed timetable in this Prospectus.

Security holder statements will be dispatched at the end of the calendar month following the issue of the Shares under the Offer.

It is the responsibility of Applicants to determine their allocation prior to trading in the Shares. Applicants who sell Shares before they receive their holding statements do so at their own risk.

1.14

Application Monies held on trust

All Application Monies received for the Shares under the Offer will be held on trust in a bank account maintained solely for the purpose of depositing Application Monies received pursuant to this Prospectus until the Shares are issued. All Application Monies will be returned (without interest) if the Shares are not issued.

1.15 ASX quotation

Application has been or will be made for the official quotation of the Shares offered by this Prospectus. If permission is not granted by ASX for the official quotation of the Shares offered by this Prospectus within three months after the date of this Prospectus (or such period as the ASX allows), the Company will repay, as soon as practicable, without interest, all Application Monies received pursuant to this Prospectus.

1.16

CHESS

The Company participates in the Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System, known as CHESS. ASX Settlement Pty Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of ASX, operates CHESS in accordance with the Listing Rules and the ASX Settlement Operating Rules.

Under CHESS, Applicants will not receive a certificate but will receive a statement of their holding of Shares.

If you are broker sponsored, ASX Settlement Pty Limited will send you a CHESS statement.

The CHESS statement will specify the number of Shares issued under this Prospectus, provide details of your holder identification number, the participant identification number of the sponsor and the terms and conditions applicable to the Shares, including a notice to exercise the Shares.

If you are registered on the Issuer Sponsored sub-register, your statement will be dispatched by Security Transfer Australia Pty Ltd and will contain the number of 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.

1.17 Ineligible Foreign Shareholders

This Prospectus, and any accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form, do not, and is not intended to, constitute an offer of Securities in any place or jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or to issue this Prospectus or the Shares under the Offer.

The distribution of this Prospectus in jurisdictions outside Australia and New Zealand may be restricted by law and persons who come into possession of this Prospectus should seek advice on and observe any such restrictions. Any failure to comply with such restrictions may constitute a violation of applicable securities laws.

The Company believes that it is unreasonable to extend the Offer to Ineligible Foreign Shareholders. The Company has formed this view having considered:

  • (a) the number and value of the Securities that would be offered to those Shareholders; and

  • (b) the cost of complying with the legal requirements and the requirements of regulatory authorities in the overseas jurisdictions.

Accordingly, Ineligible Foreign Shareholders will not be entitled to participate in the Offer.

1.18 New Zealand offer restrictions

The Securities are not being offered or sold to the public within New Zealand other than to existing Shareholders of the Company with registered addresses in New Zealand at the Record Date.

This Prospectus has not been registered, filed with or approved by any New Zealand regulatory authority. This Prospectus is not an investment statement or prospectus under New Zealand law and is not required to, and may not, contain all the information that an investment statement or prospectus under New Zealand law is required to contain.

1.19 Notice to nominees and custodians

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 Shares. 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.

1.20 Risk factors

An investment in Securities should be regarded as speculative. In addition to the general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities, there are certain specific risks associated with an investment in the Company which are detailed in Section 4.

1.21 Taxation implications

The Directors do not consider it appropriate to give Applicants advice regarding the taxation consequences of subscribing for Securities under this Prospectus.

8

The Company, its advisers and its officers do not accept any responsibility or liability for any such taxation consequences to Applicants. As a result, Applicants should consult their professional tax adviser in connection with subscribing for Shares under this Prospectus.

1.22 Major activities and financial information

A summary of the major activities and financial information relating to the Company, for the financial year ended 30 June 2017, can be found in the Company's Annual Report announced on ASX on 18 August 2017 and, for the half-year ended 31 December 2017, the Half Year Accounts announced on ASX on 8 March 2018. The Company's continuous disclosure notices (i.e. ASX announcements) since 18 August 2017 are listed in Section 5.5. Copies of these documents are available free of charge from the Company. The Directors strongly recommend that Applicants review these and all other announcements prior to deciding whether or not to participate in the Offer.

1.23 Privacy

The Company collects information about each Applicant provided on an Entitlement and Acceptance Form for the purposes of processing the Acceptance and, if the Acceptance is successful, to administer the Applicant's Shareholding 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 bodies corporate, agents, contractors and third party service providers, including mailing houses and professional advisers, and to ASX and regulatory authorities.

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 Acceptance or Application (as applicable).

An Applicant has an entitlement to gain access to the information that the Company holds about that person subject to certain exemptions under law. A fee may be charged for access. Access requests must be made in writing to the Company's registered office.

2.5

Entitlement and Acceptance Form

Acceptance of a completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form by the Company creates a legally binding contract between the Applicant and the Company for the number of Shares accepted by the Company. The Entitlement and Acceptance Form does not need to be signed to be a binding acceptance of Shares.

If the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is not completed correctly it may still be treated as valid. The Directors’ decision as to whether to treat the Acceptance as valid and how to construe, amend or complete the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, is final.

4. Risk Factors

Activities in the Company and its controlled entities, as in any business, are subject to risks, which may impact on the Company's future performance. The Company and its controlled entities have implemented appropriate strategies, actions, systems and safeguards for known risks, however, some are outside its control.

The Directors consider that the following summary, which is not exhaustive, represents some of the major risk factors which Shareholders need to be aware of in evaluating the Company's business and risks of increasing your investment in the Company. Shareholders should carefully consider the following factors in addition to the other information presented in this Prospectus.

The principal risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

4.1 Risks specific to the Offer

(a) Tax

The acquisition of, and disposal of Shares will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Shares from a taxation point of view and generally.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisers accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of applying for Shares under this Prospectus.

(b) JMEI Credits

The Company has applied to be a participant in the Federal Government's Junior Mineral Exploration Incentive ( JMEI ) scheme for the tax year ending 30 June 2019. No allocation of JMEI credits to the Company has been made by the Australian Tax Office ( ATO ) as at the date of this Prospectus.

The JMEI scheme allows JMEI Eligible Shareholders who applied for, and are issued, Shares in the Company's capital raising activities between 1 July 2018 and 30 June 2019 to receive JMEI credits which will allow them to receive refundable tax offsets.

Subject to the Company receiving notification from the ATO that its application has been accepted and that it has been allocated JMEI credits, the JMEI scheme allows JMEI Eligible Shareholders who applied for, and are issued, Shares in the Company's capital raising activities between 1 July 2018 and 30 June 2019 to receive JMEI credits, on a pro-rata basis, from the ATO. JMEI credits entitle JMEI Eligible Shareholders to refundable tax offsets (for individual shareholders or superannuation funds) or franking credits (for companies).

The issuance of JMEI credits is dependent on the Company completing the issue of Shares under the Offer before 30 June 2019. Further, JMEI credits cannot be created or issued to JMEI Eligible Shareholders until the Company lodges its 2019 income tax return. If the Company does not lodge its 2019 income tax return in accordance with the applicable tax law, the JMEI credits cannot be created or issued and there is a risk that JMEI Eligible

16

Shareholders will not receive any JMEI credits. The Company also cautions investors that there is no certainty that its application will be accepted by the ATO and that it will be allocated with JMEI credits.

4.2 Risks specific to the Company

(a) 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.

(b) 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.

(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. There is also the potential for a dispute to arise regarding matters of contractual interpretation of the parties' respective rights and obligations. This may have an adverse effect on the interests and prospects of the Company.

(d) Title risk

The Company's granted tenements permit the Company to undertake exploration. Each tenement carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose title to or its interest in a tenement if the conditions are not met or if there are insufficient funds available to meet expenditure commitments.

17

The Company also has tenement applications. There is no guarantee that these tenements will be granted and as such they should not be considered as current assets or projects of the Company. Various conditions may also be imposed as a condition of grant of any of these tenements.

(e) Exploitation, exploration and mining licences

The tenements that have been granted only permit the Company to undertake exploration on the tenements. In the event that the Company successfully delineates economic deposits on any of the tenements, it will need to apply for a mining lease to undertake development and mining on the tenement. There is no guarantee that the Company will be granted a mining lease if one is applied for.

Potential investors should understand that mineral exploration is a high-risk undertaking. There can be no assurance that exploration of the Company’s exploration tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

(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 if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

18

(i) Native Title and Aboriginal heritage

The Cobar Basin / Lachlan Gold Project is located within an area that is the subject of a native title determination claim and the southern part of the Karonie Gold Project is located within the Ngadju People non-exclusive native title claim area (WCD2014/004). The Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) and related State native title legislation and aboriginal heritage legislation may affect the Company's ability to obtain access to certain exploration areas or to obtain mining production titles. Settling any such claims will incur costs to the Company. The degree to which this may impact on the Company's activities will depend on a number of factors, including the status of particular tenements and their locations. At this stage, the Company is not able to quantify the impact, if any, of such matters on its operations.

4.3 General Risks

(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.

4.4 Investment speculative

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Securities offered under this Prospectus.

Therefore, the Securities to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Securities.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is highly speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

5.1 Rights and liabilities attaching to Shares

A summary of the rights attaching to Shares in the Company is provided below. This summary is qualified by the full terms of the Constitution (a full copy of the Constitution is available from the Company on request free of charge) and does not purport to be exhaustive or to constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. These rights and liabilities can involve complex questions of law arising from an interaction of the Constitution with statutory and common law requirements. For a Shareholder to obtain a definitive assessment of the rights and liabilities which attach to Shares in any specific circumstances, the Shareholder should seek 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.

20

(f) Liquidation rights

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

(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

The Company has been admitted to trading on the Official List of the ASX. Accordingly, 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

21

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.
