1 DETAILS OF THE OFFER
1.1 The Offer
The Company is making a non-renounceable pro-rata offer of New Shares at an issue price of 3 cents each on the basis of one (1) New Share for every two (2) Shares held on the Record Date (the Offer).
The Company intends to apply the funds raised from the Offer towards the ongoing exploration programs at the Company’s projects, the costs of the Offer and general working capital. The cash costs of the Offer will be approximately $10,000.
As at 1 April 2009, the Company had on issue:
-
38,200,649 listed Shares; and
-
37,423,649 listed Options exercisable at 20 cents each by 30 November 2009.
The above capital structure may change if existing Options are exercised before the Record Date. Any increase to the number of Shares on issue will increase the number of New Shares which may be issued under the Offer by a corresponding amount. New Shares are fully paid ordinary shares which upon issue will rank equally with existing Shares on issue.
Optionholders who do not hold Shares on the Record Date are not entitled to participate in the Offer. Where the determination of the Entitlement of any Eligible Shareholder results in a fraction such fraction will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
1.2 Effect of the Offer on the Capital Structure and Financial Position of the Company
The capital structure of the Company following completion of the Offer is summarised below:
| Shares | Number | |
|---|---|---|
| Shares on issue at the date ofthe Offer1 | 38,200,649 | |
| NewSharesnowoffered underthe Offer2 | 19,100,325 | |
| TotalShares on issue at completionofthe Offer | 57,300,974 | |
| Options | Number | |
| Options on issue at the date ofthe Offerand at completionofthe Offer1 | 37,423,649 |
1. The Shares on issue at the date of the Offer may increase if existing Options are exercised before the Record Date, and the Options on issue will correspondingly decrease.
2. The New Shares to be offered may increase if existing Options are exercised before the Record Date.
The Company’s cash reserves following completion of the Offer, assuming the Offer, or the Shortfall Offer if any, is fully subscribed, will increase by approximately $563,000, being the gross proceeds of the Offer, less the costs of the Offer.

Any application monies received for more than your final allocation of Additional New Shares will be refunded (without interest) by the Company in accordance with the provisions of the Corporations Act. The Company does not guarantee that you will receive any Shortfall Securities.
The Directors reserve the right to deal with, at their absolute discretion, any New Shares and Additional New Shares which are not taken up by Eligible Shareholders under the Offer within 3 months after the Closing Date.

3 RISK FACTORS
3.1 General
The Securities offered under this Offer Document should be considered speculative because of the nature of the Company’s business.
Whilst the Directors recommend that Shareholders take up their Entitlement, there are however numerous risk factors involved. Some of these risks can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate systems and controls, but some are outside the control of the Company and cannot be mitigated. Accordingly, an investment in the Company carries no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital or price at which Securities will trade.
The following is a summary of the more material matters to be considered and should be read in conjunction with specific matters referred to in the Company’s announcements and reports. However, the summary is not exhaustive and potential investors should examine the contents of this Offer Document in its entirety and consult their professional advisors before deciding whether to apply for the Shares.
3.2 General Economic Climate
Factors such as inflation, currency fluctuation, interest rates and supply and demand have an impact on opening costs, commodity prices and stock market prices. The Company’s future revenues and Share price may be affected by these factors, as well as by fluctuations in the price of gold or other minerals, which are beyond the Company’s control.
3.3 Operational Risks
The business of mining and mineral exploration, development and production by its nature contains significant risks. The business depends on, amongst other things, successful exploration and identification of mineral reserves, security of tenure, the availability of adequate funding, satisfactory performance of mining operations, good industrial relations and competent management. Profitability and asset values can be affected by unforeseen changes in operating circumstances, mineral reserves and geotechnical considerations.
3.4 Land Access
There is a substantial level of regulation and restriction on the ability of mining companies to have access to land in Australia. Mabo or native title claims are an example. The Native Titles Act (1993) gives statutory recognition to claims of native title. Claims of this nature have been made, and may be made in the future over the Company’s mining interests.
3.5 Sharemarket Conditions
The market price of the Company’s Securities may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and resources stocks in particular.
3.6 Environment Risks
Mining is an industry which has become subject to increasing environmental responsibility and liability. The potential liability is an ever-present risk. The use and disposal of chemicals in the mining industry is under constant legislative scrutiny and regulation.
10
==> picture [91 x 38] intentionally omitted <==
3.7 Speculative Nature of Investment
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 Offer Document. Therefore, the Securities offered pursuant to this Offer Document carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital of the market value of the Securities.
Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities.
