Figure 1: Tenement Locations

The permits exhibit excellent geological attributes, including:

• ─ major regional structures;

• ─ favourable host rocks within Birimian Greenstone Belts;

• ─ areas of artisanal mining;

• ─ numerous significant ‘gold-in-soil’ anomalies and rock chip samples up to 65.5 g/t Au, and;

• ─ the permits are considered highly prospective for the discovery of large gold deposits with several permits being located along strike from major gold deposits including (Konkera - 2.2M oz Au) and operating gold mines (Youga – 1.1M oz Au and Kalska - 0.6M oz Au).

Cursory Golden Rim exploration programmes have already identified multiple drilling targets within each permit.

Mr Moore, Managing Director of Riedel said “This permit package offers Riedel a compelling opportunity to establish a significant position in the fastest growing gold producing region in the world. When coupled with our Marymia Project located in the Doolgunna – Thaduna region of WA, Riedel has significant tenement holdings in two of the most prospective precious- and base-metals minerals provinces in Western Australia and West Africa.

These opportunities represent an outstanding business case for prospective investors with significant exploration upside from a modest market capitalisation base. We also consider it a major advantage to be able to commence a partnership with Golden Rim who have a substantial exploration footprint together with demonstrable exploration success and a highly developed knowledge base in West Africa and specifically, in Burkina Faso”.

Riedel has already commenced due diligence on the tenements with site visits undertaken by Company personnel in late September 2011 and many aspects of the legal reviews underway. The Company has also taken the opportunity to identify and select in-country exploration management and preferred contractors for commencement of field operations for the current field season. The due diligence period for the transaction is expected to be completed by mid December 2011, with initial field operations including geochemical sampling and auger drilling planned for immediate commencement thereafter.

Full details of the agreement terms and technical summary follows.

About the Tenement Package

Galgouli South Permit

Galgouli South is located in southern Burkina Faso and covers an area of 250km[2] . The Permit lies approximately 330km to the south-west of the capital city, Ouagadougou and approximately 40km north-west of Ampella Mining Ltd’s 2.2Moz Au Konkera deposit.

==> picture [141 x 56] intentionally omitted <==

Galgouli South lies at the southern end of, and along the eastern margin of the north-south trending Houndé greenstone belt. The Houndé greenstone belt hosts several major gold deposits.

A structural interpretation using regional airborne magnetic survey data highlighted a wide north-east trending structural corridor which intersects WNW–ESE structures related to a splay fault system running eastward into Ampella’s Konkera deposit area (see Figure 2) . This WNW–ESE trending fault sytem (Konkera Shear Zone) is interpreted to be a splay off the shear zone that hosts the Konkera deposit ([1] Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources of 42.4Mt @ 1.6 g/t gold for 2.2M oz of gold, at a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t Au) .

A series of active and abandoned artisanal diggings have been observed throughout the Permit area along a broad north-south trending corridor. Artisanal miners are exploiting gold from narrow quartz veins and altered host rocks.

Work to date has included geological mapping, rock and soil sampling and orientation auger drilling.

==> picture [141 x 56] intentionally omitted <==

Soil sampling has covered several areas characterised by artisanal diggings or airborne magnetic anomalies. Results from the Wewekera Prospect soil sampling programme identified an anomalous 2.5km x 0.5km area (see Figure 3) which returned assay values up to 1.13g/t Au and rock chip sample results up to 2.39g/t Au . The highest rock chip sample results are coincident with the gold-in-soil anomaly and this key area of gold anomalism lies within the Konkera Shear Zone.

Gonsin Permit

Gonsin is located in the central northern part of Burkina Faso, approximately 110km northwest of Ouagadougou. The Permit has an area of 239.5km[2] and is located along strike from the 0.6M oz Kalsaka gold mine, operated by Cluff Gold plc.

Gonsin lies on a north-east trending belt of Birimian volcano-sedimentary rocks. On the surrounding properties held by Cluff, the operating Kalsaka gold mine is hosted by ENEstriking shear zones which can be traced through the Gonsin Permit before they converge with the Sabce Fault Zone. The Sabce Fault Zone is a major gold mineralised, regional fault or structural zone which hosts High River Gold’s 1.7M oz Au Bissa Hill Deposit, located 50km to the east of Kalsaka (see Figure 4) .

Figure 4: Geology and Tenement Map - Gonsin Project

To date, the only area which has been explored by Golden Rim is a 4km[2] area immediately surrounding artisanal gold mining workings at the Kougtanga prospect. Initial exploration activities included soil sampling, rock chip sampling, basic geological mapping and reverse circulation drilling which returned narrow gold intercepts up to 2.23g/t Au. The highest soil

Page 5 of 8

==> picture [141 x 56] intentionally omitted <==

sample result was 7.04g/t Au and soil sampling defined a number of discontinuous anomalies trending northeast-southwest for up to 2.3 kilometres. Rock chip samples were collected primarily from around the artisanal workings and returned values of up to 6.07g/t Au .

Gold mineralisation observed at Kougtanga consists of multiple auriferous quartz/pyrite veins and artisanal mining is developed on two parallel quartz vein systems up to 2m wide and associated vein stockworks to depths of approximately 30m.

The remainder of the Permit area is yet to be visited.

Tagou Permit

Tagou covers an area of 205.5km² and is located in south-east Burkina Faso, approximately 250km south-east Ouagadougou. The Tagou Permit lies along the north-east trending Fada greenstone belt in a similar geological setting as that hosting Mount Isa Metals’ high-grade Nabanga gold discovery, located 30km to the south.

Artisanal diggings have been observed throughout the Permit area in diverse geolgical settings. Gold mineralization exists in quartz-sulphides veins, siliceous pegmatites and sulphide-magnetite-bearing conglomerates. Veins up to 20 metres in width are present, generally oriented parallel to the trend of the major regional north-east trending shear zone that traverses the Permit.

At Tagou, geological mapping has been completed in conjunction with reconnaissance rock chip sampling, returning excellent assay results up to 65.5g/t Au, 28.0g/t Au and 14.3g/t Au . Subsequent, selective soil sampling completed over five prospective targets areas outlined significant gold-in-soil anomalism with values up to 300ppb Au.

An interpretation of regional airborne magnetic data suggests there may be a plus 10 kilometre wide, north-east trending structural corridor characterised by multiple-parallel faults that bisects the Permit area over a strike distance of approximately 10 kilometres.

Moaga Permit

Moaga covers an area of 242km² and is located in south-east Burkina Faso, 220km from Ouagadougou on the north-east trending Tenkodogo greenstone belt. A major regional structure, the Youga Shear, passes through the Permit area and this structure hosts Endeavour Mining Corporation’s 1.1M oz Youga gold deposits, 60km along strike to the south-west. The Youga Shear is a splay structure related to the Markoye Fault, a structure which is interpreted to control a number of multi-million ounce gold deposits in Burkina Faso.

The geology at Moaga is dominated by mafic to intermediate volcanics and sediments which have been interrupted by a series of gabbro, diorite, granodiorite and granite intrusives.

During 2011, field activities at Moaga included geological mapping and cursory reconnaissance rock chip sampling, however, as yet no systematic geochemical sampling has been conducted.

Keri Permit

Keri covers an area of 139km² and is situated in north-east Burkina Faso along the border with Niger, approximately 365km to the north-east of Ouagadougou. Keri covers part of the

Page 6 of 8

==> picture [141 x 56] intentionally omitted <==

north-east trending Sebba greenstone belt and a major shear splay related to the regional Markoye Fault system.

In the western portion of the Keri Permit the geology is dominated by a north-east trending belt of volcano-sedimentary rocks and in the east by a sequence of granitoids. The volcanosedimentary sequence is intruded by a number of mafic and felsic units which are generally orientated northeast-southwest and the structural architecture of the Permit is dominated by major northeast-southwest trending faults that appear to define the boundaries of the volcano-sedimentary package. Significant north-west trending cross structures can be identified in the regional magnetic data, cutting the granitic sequence in the east.

Mineralization identified to date at Keri is related to gold-bearing quartz veins. A number of major artisanal mining sites have been located within the Permit area where sulphidic and manganiferous quartz veins are being exploited. The most extensive artisanal workings observed are developed on a sheeted quartz vein system which is exposed over a strike length of 400 metres.

In April 2011 a detailed airborne magnetic/radiometric survey was flown over Keri with subsequent interpretation identifying several major zones of faulting, offering prospective target areas for exploration. Notwithstanding, only limited field work has been carried out at Keri, focussed on geological mapping and rock chip sampling. No systematic geochemical sampling has yet been conducted.
