QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT 30 June 2015

1. HIGHLIGHTS

  • Brockman signed a Native Title Mining Agreement with the Nyiyaparli people covering all tenements comprising the Ophthalmia Iron Ore Project. The signing of this agreement paves the way for the granting of mining leases over the project area once an infrastructure solution is established to facilitate development of the project.

  • Following the victory in the Supreme Court in September 2014 (in which the Supreme Court ruled that Brockman’s Access Proposal was valid and complied with the requirements of section 8 of the Access Code), Brockman has been awarded costs which will be deposited into our legal advisers trust account awaiting the outcome of the TPI appeal.

  • Brockman is carrying out cost optimisations of projected capital and operating costs for the Marillana Iron Ore Project in the current operating environment in preparation for the securing of a rail infrastructure solution for the project.

  • In line with current market conditions, Company-wide cost reductions have been implemented with reduced overheads to be realised in the coming quarter.

QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT 30 June 2015

2. CORPORATE REVIEW

Cash position

The consolidated cash position of the Group as at 30 June 2015 was HK$98.3 million .

The Company is also re-evaluating the mine plan to reduce haul distances, increase product yields in the early mine life and minimise rehandling of waste materials, all of which is anticipated to have a positive impact on mining costs.

3.2 Marillana Infrastructure

Corporate

Mr. Warren Talbot Beckwith resigned as a non-executive director of the Company on 2 July 2015, due to his other personal and family commitments. Mr Beckwith shall remain as a consultant to the Company following his resignation.

D u r i n g t h e q u a r t e r t h e C o m p a n y completed a Company-wide review of its administration, exploration and development outflows in line with current market conditions. Significant savings were secured with the full benefit to be recognised in future quarters.

3. MARILLANA IRON ORE PROJECT (100% INTEREST)

3.1 Marillana Development

Brockman has focussed its efforts on optimisation studies for the Marillana project. The current economic climate has presented cost saving opportunities and the project team is investigating the likely beneficial impact on previous capital and operating cost estimates for the Marillana project under the existing cost environment, in readiness for when an infrastructure solution is secured .

The development of the Marillana iron ore project remains dependent on securing a viable rail and port infrastructure solution .

Rail

In May 2013, Brockman commenced seeking access rights to The Pilbara Infrastructure Pty Ltd’s (“TPI’s”) belowrail infrastructure under the Western Australian Railways (Access) Code 2000 (WA) (“Code”), to allow it to haul up to 20 Mtpa of hematite iron ore product from its Marillana Iron Ore Project (“Marillana”), for a term of 20 years (“Access Proposal”). The access sought proposed to exit the TPI mainline at Port Hedland where North West Infrastructure (“NWI”) has a capacity allocation of 50 Mtpa at the proposed SP3 and the SP4 berths for iron ore export from South West Creek in the Inner Harbour.

As part of the Access Proposal, Brockman will procure the necessary spur lines and associated infrastructure to connect Marillana with the TPI railway and to connect it to the proposed NWI facilities in Port Hedland, which will include unloading, stockpiling and ship loading facilities in South West Creek, Port Hedland.

4

QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT 30 June 2015

Since May 2013, significant delays have occurred due to the validity challenge launched by TPI in October 2013. Since having the Supreme Court confirm that Brockman’s Access Proposal was valid for the purpose of s8 of the Code in September 2014, Brockman has continued to progress the required information for the Access Proposal under sections 14 and 15 of the Code. TPI has appealed the decision, with the appeal scheduled to be heard in August this year. Brockman has however been awarded costs for the original Supreme Court hearing, which will be deposited into a trust account with Brockman’s legal advisers until resolution of the appeal .

Brockman continues to investigate alternative infrastructure solutions for the Marillana Project.

Port

Brockman, as a foundation member of the North West Infrastructure joint venture (NWI), has a potential port solution through the Western Australian State Government conferral of 50Mtpa export capacity to NWI and the related potential port stock yards and berth locations (SP3 and SP4 in South West Creek in the Port Hedland inner harbour) set aside by the Pilbara Ports Authority. The NWI opportunity is reliant on securing a viable rail solution to connect potential users mines with the port.

NWI has completed a cost review and reduced outflows during this market cycle awaiting resolution of the rail solution. Brockman remains focussed on protecting its foundation shareholding position in NWI and remains vigilant to the opportunity for other aspirant Pilbara based junior developers and miners to support the future port development .

4. OPHTHALMIA IRON ORE PROJECT (100% INTEREST)

4.1 Ophthalmia exploration

Following the successful development of a substantial Mineral Resource at the Ophthalmia project (see ASX release dated 1 December 2014) exploration activities during the quarter were focussed on site rehabilitation .

4.2 Ophthalmia development

In May, the Company executed a Native Title Agreement with the Nyiyaparli people covering all tenements comprising the Ophthalmia Iron Ore Project.

The agreement was based on the existing agreement with the Nyiyaparli people covering the Marillana Iron Ore Project (signed in 2009) and takes into consideration the Nyiyaparli people’s interests with regard to the management of Cultural Heritage and Protection of the lands and environment at the Ophthalmia Project, as well as providing education and training opportunities for the local Nyiyaparli people.

The signing of this agreement paves the way for the granting of mining leases over the project area once Brockman has established an infrastructure solution to facilitate development of the project.

The PFS has been suspended pending securing of an infrastructure solution for the Company’s Marillana project.
