AGENDA
Overview Projects Looking Forward
Corporate / Financial Overview
Impact of Global Financial Crisis
Preserve core mineral assets and conserve cash
Gold & base metal explorer, WA
Listed: October 2007
Strategy – unchanged;
core business – gold & base metal explorer, WA
Turned over 3 projects; spent $1.3 million
VTEM, gravity, RC drilling, aircore drilling, geochemistry
create value by :
Organic growth – project generation initiatives
Cash: $2.1 million
Investments: 112,410 AGO shares
Acquisition – advanced mineral projects
Requires discipline & patience
Status
Market Cap: $1.9 million (at $0.06) Listed Shares: 32,040,010 Unlisted Options: 8,750,000 (June 2012)
Tight capital structure
Sound financial position
Top 20: ~ 60% R Smit 10.4% MZM 6.3%

SW Prickle Prospect, Cross‐Section NE
granite gabbro dunite gabbro
Weakly elevated
~ 50 m
gold, copper, lead, zinc
ultramafic
~ 20 m
----- End of picture text -----
75 shallow aircore holes
Testing of gold targets failed to detect mineralisation
Testing of Prickle target detected elevated gold (41 ppb) – copper (348 ppm) – lead (121 ppm) – zinc (2523 ppm) from weathered mafic gneiss
Lithotypes at Prickle includes dunite
Dempster Project – greenfields nickel search
Prospective rock package (distinctive magnetic character) – includes dunite
Over large area (> 30 km strike length; up to 7 km wide)
Never explored
Similarities to Thompson Nickel Belt, Canada
Proterozoic rocks along margin of Archaean craton
High–grade metamorphic belt; orogenic zone Dunite intrudes in to sulphide bearing host rocks
Test with EM

Zanthus Project
==> picture [307 x 448] intentionally omitted <==
Major break in gravity ridge
Large domes & low strain
Gold mineralisation associated with N‐S faults
Main target is magnetic dome adjacent to N‐S fault
Regional calcrete samples to the south indicate elevated gold values
Eelya Hill Project – VMS style
==> picture [435 x 439] intentionally omitted <==
----- Start of picture text -----
10m at 1.1% Cu
17m at 1.4% Cu
Gold Intersections
3m at 3.5 g/t from 6m Gold Intersections
11m at 2.4 g/t from 14m 3m at 10.6 g/t from 4m
2m at 4.0 g/t from 37m 3m at 19.7 g/t from 26m
7m at 6.1 g/t from 30m

Felsic volcanic complex; gossans
Gossans drilled in 1960’s indicated base metal suphides;
Gold district with Tuckabianna to the south.
Eelya South & Laterite Hill Prospects
Gold explorers intersected base metal sulphides at felsic‐mafic contact.
Exploration strategy – drill beneath best intercept

Project Evaluation
Dempster – airborne EM survey
Driven by key decision points Eelya Hill – RC Drilling
Project Generation
Zanthus – calcrete geochemistry
Strength, low key, low cost
Project Acquisition
Continue search & risk assessment
Opportunity, look for value
