Table 2 Gold intersections >1.0 g/t Au from RC drilling at Steves Prospect

The intersections define the mineralisation and can be traced over 450m and are open to the north and south. No estimate has been attempted of true thickness.

The mineralisation in the new holes continues the mineralisation to the north and south and it is still open in both directions. Although the "economic intersections" (>1 g/t Au) are not thick, the "mineralised zones" (>0.1g/t Au) are between 4 and 10m thick, with an average of over 7m and is listed below in Table 3.

The above mineralisation is mainly in the western area of Steves Prospect, with GRC94 being located 350m east of the main line. During the quarter a complete re-appraisal of the total lease package at Glandore was completed, with emphasis on the data from the last 6 months of intensive drilling and associated studies. By using the PIMA scanning of chips, Fluid Flow Modelling data and the HyMap information, a better understanding of the Glandore project and surrounding leases was gained.

QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES STATEMENT

FOR THE QUARTER ENDING 31 December 2013

The definition of several lines of mineralisation at Steves Prospect is now apparent, and with the Grunts line still to be followed up, the potential of the Glandore discoveries keeps increasing. Figure 2 below shows the Fluid Flow trends as unbroken red lines with the drill defined mineralisation trends as the dashed red lines.

The understanding of the local controls on mineralisation will be enhanced by the compilation of all the data, and re-interpretation of the models from all data sources. The timing of this activity will also be effective in controlling expenditure in the current equity market conditions.

Results from Gindalbie Project

The initial drilling at the Gindalbie Project was completed in following up 25.84g/t Au assay results and visible gold being found at location. The drilling consisted of 12 RC holes for 1,020m and the results show a large number of anomalous gold mineralisation around the Lady Lauren quartz veins.

Significant (>1.0g/t Au) gold intersections at Lady Lauren

The anomalous intersections are listed in Table 4 above and include 4 results greater than 1g/t Au. These results are to be followed up by soil sampling and potential further drilling in order to further map the extent of the gold anomalies found at the Lady Lauren quartz veins.

Future work will involve a more regional soil sampling approach to investigate some broad geochemical and HyMap anomalies. Up to five areas have been identified for appraisal in the coming quarter.

Jundee South Project

The Jundee South RC drilling was done in Q1 of the new financial year after heritage approval was gained. This consisted of 900m to define the mineralisation to a depth of 100m to 150m depth. This drilling intersected the fresh rock mineralisation which has helped the understanding of the trends for exploration for the rest of the lease.

The Jundee South Project (E53/1461) is located 60km east of Wiluna and 25km south of the Jundee Mine. The 2011-2012 RAB programs consisted of 2,562m of RAB in 75 vertical drill holes following up previously identified soil anomalies that had not been drilled. One soil sample result produced a 16.5g/t Au value in the area near the current Western Area of mineralisation (Normandy Mining Limited, 1992).

Figure 4 Drilling location plan with geochem and drilling anomalies and the RC target area as a blue ellipse

The west northwest trending structure can be seen in Figure 4 and reflects the structures that control the mineralisation at the nearby Gourdis and Vause Deposits. The complete tenement area has been evaluated again using geochemistry, structure and the HyMap/Magnetics in light of this discovery. The focus in the short term will be to investigate bedrock mineralisation at the Western Area to evaluate the thick and high grade mineralisation reported previously.

The significance of the RAB results was that the mineralisation was defined over a 400m by 100m zone and the high grade thick zones are located in a 40m wide by 100m long initial target. This is shown in Table 5 below.

The significance of the RC results are again the shallow depths (from 11m), thickness (12 to 16m), high grades (6m at 3.44g/t Au including 1m at 15.62g/t Au) in MRC10 and it is open to the west. The mineralisation is in several rock types indicating a LODE system, with associated quartz, sulphides and carbonates. The gold mineralisation is detailed in Table 6 and will be scanned with PIMA to map the alteration and mineralisation style before embarking on more drilling programs.

Glandore Hub Project

The Glandore Hub Project is located in a 60km radius of the Glandore Project. The possibility of satellite projects within easy trucking distance is a policy common to several successful producers (such as Integra Mining Limited, Silver Lake Resources Limited [now merged] and Saracen Mineral Holdings Limited in the area.

==> picture [421 x 319] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 5 Glandore Hub current leases and main focus area

The main leases that are advanced are Glandore and Gindalbie and the eastern leases have been dropped or surrendered. There are interesting anomalies in historical data being found at Bulong and the South-West PLs below Glandore at Clinker Hill. This fits with the aim of investigating the Salt Creek- Majestic Structure.

Geochemical surface sampling

Three large scale surface sampling programs have been conducted over Aruma’s projects to follow up previously identified anomalies and to investigate new targets generated through the review of historical data.

Jundee South

The primary target at Jundee South was the previously drilled Marks prospect. The geochemical analysis of this area is vital in understanding the mineralisation of not only the prospect but the wider area.

The analysis of the historical data and interpretation of the HyVista hyperspectral data identified several key targets in the south of the tenement. With this area being significantly underexplored the potential is high. These samples were taken at 100m intervals and the results were received in the New Year.

No gold anomalism was found in this latest sampling exercise, but the bismuth anomalies have defined areas of gold anomalism that are suspected to be associated with carbonation associated with broad scale alteration often associated with gold. These will be useful in planning the next exploration programs and reappraising the tenements.

Gindalbie

The geochemical surface sampling completed at Gindalbie followed up drill results at Lady Lauren prospect and investigated anomalism identified through HyVista. Lady Lauren prospect sampling was conducted over a tight 50m x 50m grid.

Areas that had minimal historical sampling or drilling were also targeted so a complete data package for the tenement could be compiled. These were sampled on wider grids from 100m x 100m to 200m x 200m.

Minor gold anomalism was found in this latest sampling exercise, with the copper anomalies also in the areas of gold anomalism. It is suspected to be associated with sulphides associated with with gold. These will be useful in planning the next exploration programs and reappraising the tenements.

Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or
specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate
to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma
sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should
not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity
and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems
used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the
Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be
relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1
m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge
for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required,
such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (e.g.
submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information.
Soil Samples are taken from 200mm deep holes and sieved at 80
microns to give nominal ~100g samples.
Rock chip samples of some ~500g are taken from outcrop and 50%
assayed and 50% kept as reference sample.
Trench or lake samples of ~500g are taken from surface pick lines of
various lengths and on random 1m subsamples on GDA lines.
All samples were 30g charge assayed according to Fe and Cl content
to ensure best accuracy. High Cl precludes FA and High Fe, S and
CO3 is not recommended for AR.
Drilling

Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air
blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. core diameter,
triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or
other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc.).

Drill hole
Information
A summary of all information material to the understanding of the
exploration results including a tabulation of the following information
for all Material drill holes:
o easting and northing of the drill hole collar
o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in
metres) of the drill hole collar
o dip and azimuth of the hole
o down hole length and interception depth
o hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the
information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from
the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly
explain why this is the case.
Complete.
Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high
grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade
results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used
for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of
such aggregations should be shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values
should be clearly stated.
Drill holes are oriented to get intersections as close to true widths as
possible.
Metal equivalents never used.

angle is known, its nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there
should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true
width not known’).
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of
intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being
reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of
drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views.
As done
Balanced
reporting
Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not
practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades
and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of
Exploration Results.
Null results are not reported and minimum intersection grades are
reported and detailed in each table.
Other

data
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported
including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical
survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and
method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density,
groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential
deleterious or contaminating substances.
