3. IMPORTANT NOTES

This Prospectus is dated 28 June 2019 and was lodged with the ASIC on that date. The ASIC and its officers take no responsibility for the contents of this Prospectus or the merits of the investment to which this Prospectus relates.

No Securities may be issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.

No person is authorised to give information or to make any representation in connection with this Prospectus, which is not contained in the Prospectus. Any information or representation not so contained may not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with this Prospectus.

It is important that investors read this Prospectus in its entirety and seek professional advice where necessary. The Shares the subject of this Prospectus should be considered highly speculative.

Applications for Securities offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be submitted on an original Entitlement and Acceptance Form or Shortfall Application Form.

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus. In making representations in this Prospectus regard has been had to the fact that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom potential investors may consult.

3.1 Risk factors

Potential investors should be aware that subscribing for Securities in the Company involves a number of risks. The key risk factors of which investors should be aware are set out in Section 7 of this Prospectus.

Relevantly, the Company has a “going concern” emphasis of matter in its half yearly report for the six months ended 31 December 2018 ( Half Yearly Report ).

As disclosed in the review report in the Half Yearly Report, the Company recorded a loss of $316,435 and experienced net operating and investing cash outflows of $1,216,788. As at period end, the Company has net current assets of $596,550.

These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on securing additional funding through capital raising activities.

There is no certainty that the Company will be successful in raising capital. Further details of these specific risks are set out in Sections 7.2 (a) and 7.2 (b).

These risks together with other general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities not specifically referred to, may affect the value of the Securities in the future. Accordingly, an investment in the Company should be considered highly speculative. Investors should consider consulting their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

3.2 Forward-looking statements

This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements which are identified by words such as ‘may’, ‘could’, ‘believes’, ‘estimates’, ‘targets’, ‘expects’, or ‘intends’ and other similar words that involve risks and uncertainties.

These statements are based on an assessment of present economic and operating conditions, and on a number of assumptions regarding future events and actions that, as at the date of this Prospectus, are expected to take place.

Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are beyond the control of our Company, the Directors and our management.

We cannot and do not give any assurance that the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus will actually occur and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

We have no intention to update or revise forward-looking statements, or to publish prospective financial information in the future, regardless of whether new information, future events or any other factors affect the information contained in this prospectus, except where required by law.

These forward looking statements are subject to various risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or anticipated in these statements. These risk factors are set out in section 7 of this Prospectus.

  • (ii) attach your cheque, drawn on an Australian bank or bank draft made payable in Australian currency, for the appropriate application monies (at $0.003 per Share); or

4.5 Payment by BPAY®

For payment by BPAY®, please follow the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You can only make a payment via BPAY® if you are the holder of an account with an Australian financial institution that supports BPAY® transactions. Please note that should you choose to pay by BPAY®:

  • (a) you do not need to submit the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to have made the declarations on that Entitlement and Acceptance Form; and

  • (b) if you do not pay for your Entitlement in full, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of Securities which is covered in full by your application monies.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your BPAY® payment is received by the share registry by no later than 3:00 pm (WST) on the Closing Date. You should be aware that your financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regards to electronic payment and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment.

6

Any application monies received for more than your final allocation of Securities (only where the amount is $1.00 or greater) will be refunded. No interest will be paid on any application monies received or refunded.

The Offer is non-renounceable. Accordingly, a Shareholder may not sell or transfer all or part of their Entitlement.

4.6 Shortfall Offer

Any Entitlement not taken up pursuant to the Offer will form the Shortfall Offer.

The Shortfall Offer is a separate offer made pursuant to this Prospectus and will remain open for up to three months following the Closing Date. The issue price for each Share to be issued under the Shortfall Offer shall be $0.003 being the price at which Shares have been offered under the Offer.

Eligible Shareholders who wish to subscribe for Securities above their Entitlement are invited to apply for additional Securities under the Shortfall Offer by completing the appropriate section on their Entitlement and Acceptance Form or by making payment for such Securities in accordance with Section 4.3 above.

The Directors reserve the right to issue Shortfall Securities at their absolute discretion. There is no guarantee that Eligible Shareholders will receive Securities applied for under the Shortfall Offer.

The Company notes that no Securities will be issued to an applicant under this Prospectus or via the Shortfall Offer if the issue of Securities would contravene the takeover prohibition in section 606 of the Corporations Act. Similarly, no Securities will be issued via the Shortfall Offer to any related parties of the Company.

4.7 ASX Listing

Application for Official Quotation of the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus will be made in accordance with the timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus. If ASX does not grant Official Quotation of the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus before the expiration of 3 months after the date of issue of the Prospectus, (or such period as varied by the ASIC), the Company will not issue any Shares and will repay all application monies for the Shares within the time prescribed under the Corporations Act, without interest.

The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation to the Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Shares now offered for subscription.

The Company may make application to ASX for Official Quotation of the New Options in the future if conditions for listing those Options are satisfied. The New Options are offered on the basis that they are unlisted and there will be no secondary market available for sale of the New Options.

The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation to the New Options in the future is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Options now offered for subscription.

7

4.8 Issue of Securities

Securities issued pursuant to the Offer will be issued in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus.

Securities issued pursuant to the Shortfall Offer will be issued on a progressive basis. Where the number of Shares issued is less than the number applied for, or where no issue is made surplus application monies will be refunded without any interest to the Applicant as soon as practicable after the closing date of the Shortfall Offer.

Pending the issue of the Securities or payment of refunds pursuant to this Prospectus, all application monies will be held by the Company in trust for the Applicants in a separate bank account as required by the Corporations Act. The Company, however, will be entitled to retain all interest that accrues on the bank account and each Applicant waives the right to claim interest.

Holding statements for Securities issued under the Offer will be mailed in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus and for Shortfall Securities issued under the Shortfall Offer as soon as practicable after their issue.

4.9

5.5 Details of substantial holders

Based on publicly available information as at the date of this Prospectus, those persons which (together with their associates) have a relevant interest in 5% or more of the Shares on issue are set out below:

Shareholder Shares %
Ron Gajewski1 48,291,364 6.5%

Notes:

  1. Comprising 46,291,364 shares held by Vienna Holdings Pty Ltd of which Mr Gajewski is a director; and 2,000,000 shares held by Redtown Enterprises Pty Ltd owned by and directed by an associate of Mr Gajewski.

11

In the event all Entitlements are accepted there will be no change to the substantial holders on completion of the Offer.

5.6 Effect of the Offer on the Control of the Company

As at the date of this Prospectus the Company’s largest substantial holder is Vienna Holdings Pty Ltd and Redtown Enterprises Pty Ltd (joint notice lodged) ( Substantial Holder ). Both entities are controlled by a Director of the Company, Mr Ron Gajewski and hold a combined total of 48,291,364 Shares, being a voting power in the Company equal to approximately 6.5%.

The Substantial Holder’s present relevant interest and changes under several scenarios are set out in the table below and are based on the assumption that he takes up his full Entitlement of 48,291,364 Shares under each scenario.

Event Shares held by
Substantial Holder
Voting power of
Substantial Holder
Date of Prospectus 48,291,346 6.5%
Completion of Offer

Fully subscribed
96,582,692 6.5%

50% subscribed
96,582,692 8.7%

25% subscribed
96,582,692 10.4%

The number of Shares held by the Substantial Holder and its voting power in the table above show the potential effect of the take up of the Offer. However, the Company considers it is unlikely that no Shareholder (other than the Substantial Holder) takes up any of their Entitlement.

5.7 Potential Dilution

Shareholders should note that if they do not participate in the Offer, their holdings are likely to be diluted by approximately 50% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus). Examples of how the dilution may impact Shareholders is set out in the table below:

Holder Holding as
at Record
date
% at Record
Date

Shareholder 1 100,000,000 13.46% 100,000,000 100,000,000 6.73%
Shareholder 2 50,000,000 6.73% 50,000,000 50,000,000 3.36%
Shareholder 3 15,000,000 2.02% 15,000,000 15,000,000 1.01%
Shareholder 4 4,000,000 0.54% 4,000,000 4,000,000 0.27%
Shareholder 5 500,000 0.07% 500,000 500,000 0.03%

Notes:

  1. The dilutionary effect shown in the table is the maximum percentage on the assumption that those Entitlements not accepted are placed under the Shortfall Offer. In the event all Entitlements are not accepted and some or all of the resulting Shortfall was not subsequently placed, the dilution effect for each Shareholder not accepting their Entitlement would be a lesser percentage.

6. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SECURITIES

6.1 Shares

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Shares being offered pursuant to this Prospectus. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a) General meetings

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Constitution of the Company.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at general meetings of shareholders or classes of shareholders:

  • (i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid Share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for each Share held, but in respect of partly paid shares shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such Shares registered in the Shareholder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(c) Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of holders of any Shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividends (at present there are none), any dividend as declared shall be payable on all Shares in proportion to the amount of capital for the time being paid up or credited as paid up in respect of such Shares.

13

(d) Winding-up

Subject to the rights of holders of Shares with special rights in a windingup (at present there are none), on a winding-up of the Company all monies and property that are to be legally distributed among holders of Shares will be distributed in proportion to the amounts paid up (or which at the commencement of the winding-up ought to have been paid up) on those Shares compared with the total paid-up capital of the Company.

(e) Shareholder liability

As the Shares issued will be fully paid shares, they will not be subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(f) Transfer of shares

Subject to the Constitution, the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules and any other applicable laws of Australia, and subject to any restrictions applicable to Shares that have been designated by the ASX as “restricted securities”, Shares are freely transferable.

(g) Future increase in capital

The issue of any new Shares is under the control of the Directors of the Company. Subject to restrictions on the issue or grant of Securities contained in the ASX Listing Rules, the Constitution and the Corporations Act (and without affecting any special right previously conferred on the holder of an existing share or class of shares), the Directors may issue Shares as they shall, in their absolute discretion, determine.

(h)

Variation of rights

Under section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to shares.

7. RISK FACTORS

7.1 Introduction

The Securities offered under this Prospectus are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors to consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and to consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are other general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The risks identified in this section, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the Securities.

The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

7.2 Company specific

(a) Going concern

The Company’s financial report for the half year ended 31 December 2018 included a note on the financial condition of the Company and the possible existence of a material uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company had incurred a loss for the period after tax of $316,435 (2017: $207,111) and experienced net operating and investing cash outflows of $1,216,788. As at 31 December 2018, the Company had net current assets of $596,550.

The Directors consider that additional funding will be required to enable the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date of the Half Yearly Report. Such additional funding is potentially available from a number of sources including further capital raisings. However, should these funding initiatives be unsuccessful, there exists a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the Group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Directors believe that the Company will obtain sufficient funding from one or more of the funding opportunities detailed above (which includes the Offer under this document) to enable it to continue as a going concern.

If the Offer is not completed successfully, there is significant uncertainty as to whether the Company can continue as a going concern.

(b) Future Capital Requirements

The Company’s current business will require ongoing expenditures. The funds raised from the Offer will not be sufficient to successfully achieve all the objectives of the Company's overall business strategy and it will be required to raise further funds in the future. The Company may seek

17

to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures, production sharing arrangements or other means. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed or, if available, the terms of the financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to Shareholders.

If the Company is unable to source additional capital after exhaustion of the net proceeds of the Offer and existing working capital, there can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient capital to continue as a going concern.

Any additional equity financing would most likely be dilutive to the Company’s existing Shareholders and any debt financing if available, may involve restrictive covenants, which may limit the Company’s business strategy. The Company’s failure to raise capital if and when needed could delay or suspend the Company’s business strategy and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s activities.

The Company, in the ordinary course of its operations and developments, may be required to issue financial assurances, particularly insurances and bond/bank guarantee instruments to secure statutory and environmental performance undertakings and commercial arrangements. The Company’s ability to provide such assurances is subject to external financial and credit market assessments, and its own financial position.

Loan agreements and other financing rearrangements such as debt facilities, convertible note issue and finance leases (and any related guarantee and security) that may be entered into by the Company may contain covenants, undertakings and other provisions which, if breached, may entitle lenders to accelerate repayment of loans and there is no assurance that the Company would be able to repay such loans in the event of an acceleration. Enforcement of any security granted by the Company or default under a finance lease could also result in the loss of assets.

The Company is exposed to risks associated with its financial instruments (consisting of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities due to third parties from time to time). This includes the risk that a third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations; the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due; and the risk that market prices may vary which will affect the Company’s income.

(c) Kikagati Project acquisition risk

As announced, the Company has entered into an exclusive and binding Option to Earn-In Agreement ( Agreement ) with African Panther Resources (U) Limited AG ( APRU ) to acquire 70% of the Kikagati Tin (Sn) Project, located in Uganda ( Acquisition ).

The Acquisition was conditional upon the Company completing 2,000 metres of diamond core drilling on the project before 30 June 2019 ( Milestone ). The Company announced on 27 June 2019 that it has achieved the Milestone and has advised APRU of its intention to continue to “earn in” and on execution of a formal Earn-In Agreement ( Formal Agreement ), Carnavale will have earned a 51% interest in APRU.

18

There is a risk that Carnavale and APRU may not be able to agree key commercial terms with respect to the Formal Agreement and that could delay the advancement of the Kikagati Project.

Should the Company not be able to negotiate terms that are beneficial to the Company it will continue to progress with its Grey Dam NickelCobalt project in Western Australia as well as continuing to identify other resource projects for acquisition.

(d) Tenure, access and grant of applications

All of the permits or licences in which the Company has or may earn an interest in will be subject to applications for renewal or grant (as the case may be). The renewal or grant of the terms of each permit or licence is usually at the discretion of the relevant government authority.

Additionally, permits are subject to a number of government specific legislative conditions. The inability to meet these conditions could affect the standing of a permit or restrict its ability to be renewed.

If a permit or licence is not renewed or granted, the Company may suffer significant damage through loss of the opportunity to develop and discover any mineral resources on that permit.

(e)

Management

The Company’s operational success depends substantially on the continuing efforts of Directors and senior management. The loss of services of one or more Directors or senior management may have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations. Furthermore, if the Company is unable to attract, train and retain key individuals and other highly skilled employees and consultants, its business may be adversely affected. Key personnel have been covered by executive services agreements and contractor agreements and in most instances, incentive plans to ensure that key personnel are incentivised and rewarded for performance.

(f)

Exploration success

The tenements are at various stages of exploration, and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are high-risk undertakings.

There can be no assurance that exploration of the tenements, or any other licenses that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of mineral resources or an economic ore deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

(g) Exploration costs

The exploration costs of the Company are based on certain assumptions with respect to the method and timing of exploration. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the actual costs may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the cost estimates and the underlying assumptions will be

19

realised in practice, which may materially and adversely affect the Company’s viability.

(h) Sovereign and Country Risk

The Company’s operations in respect of the Kikagati Project which is located in Uganda are exposed to various levels of political, economic and other risks and uncertainties associated with operating in a foreign jurisdiction. In addition, any material adverse changes in government policies or legislation in Uganda affecting foreign ownership of mineral interests, taxation, profit repatriation, royalties, labour relations, and mining and exploration activities, may adversely affect the viability and profitability of the Company's assets in that country.

(i)

Metals and Currency Price Volatility

The Company's ability to proceed with the development of its Projects and benefit from any future mining operations will depend on market factors, some of which may be beyond its control. The world market for minerals is subject to many variables and may fluctuate markedly.

These variables include world demand for tin, cobalt, nickel and gold, forward selling by producers and production cost levels in major mineral-producing regions. Minerals prices are also affected by macroeconomic factors such as general global economic conditions and expectations regarding inflation and interest rates. These factors may have an adverse effect on the Company's exploration, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

Tin, cobalt, nickel and gold ore are principally sold throughout the world in US dollars. The Company's cost base will be payable in various currencies including Australian dollars, and US dollars. As a result, any significant and/or sustained fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Australian dollar and the US dollar could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's operations, financial position (including revenue and profitability) and performance. The Company may undertake measures, where deemed necessary by the Board to mitigate such risks.

(j)

Potential for significant dilution

Upon implementation of the Offer, assuming all Entitlements are accepted, and no Options are exercised prior to the Record Date the number of Shares in the Company will increase from 742,999,560 currently on issue to 1,485,999,120. This means that each Share will represent a significantly lower proportion of the ownership of the Company.

It is not possible to predict what the value of the Company or a Share will be following the completion of the Offer being implemented and the Directors do not make any representation as to such matters.

The last trading price of Shares on ASX prior to the prospectus being lodged of $0.003 is not a reliable indicator as to the potential trading price of Shares after implementation of the Offer.

20

7.3 Industry specific

(a) Environmental

The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to laws and regulations concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. It is the Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.

Significant liabilities could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean-up costs or penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous operations or non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations.

(b) Mineral Resources Estimates

Mineral Resource estimates are expressions of judgment based on drilling results, past experience with mining properties, knowledge, experience, industry practice and many other factors. Estimates which are valid when made may change substantially when new information becomes available.

The actual quality and characteristics of mineral deposits cannot be known until mining takes place and will almost always differ from the assumptions used to develop Mineral Resources. Consequently, the actual Mineral Resources may differ from those estimated, which may result in either a positive or negative effect on operations.

Should the Company’s projects encounter mineralisation or formations different from those predicted by past drilling, sampling and similar examinations, Mineral Resource estimates may have to be adjusted and mining plans may have to be altered in a way which could adversely affect the Company’s operations.

(c)

Exploration risk

The exploration for, and development of, mineral deposits involves a high degree of risk. Few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. Resource exploration and development is a speculative business, characterised by a number of significant risks, including, among other things, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits, but also from finding mineral deposits that, although present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production. The marketability of minerals acquired or discovered by the Company may be affected by numerous factors that are beyond the control of the Company and that cannot be accurately predicted, such as market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral markets and processing equipment, and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals, and environmental protection, the combination of which factors may result in the Company not receiving an adequate return on investment capital.

21

(d) Safety risks

Safety is a fundamental risk for any exploration and production company in regard to personal injury, damage to property and equipment and other losses. The occurrence of any of these risks could result in legal proceedings against the Company and substantial losses to the Company due to injury or loss of life, damage to or destruction of property, regulatory investigation, and penalties or suspension of operations. Damage occurring to third parties as a result of such risks may give rise to claims against the Company.

The Company intends on developing a set of safety procedures to identify issues and mitigation strategies.

(e)

Native title

The Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) recognises and protects the rights and interests in Australia of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in land and waters, according to their traditional laws and customs. There is significant uncertainty associated with native title in Australia and this may impact on the Company’s operations and future plans.

Native title can be extinguished by valid grants of land or waters to people other than the native title holders or by valid use of land or waters. It can also be extinguished if the indigenous group has lost their connection with the relevant land or waters. Native title is not extinguished by the grant of mining leases, as they are not considered to be grants of exclusive possession. A valid mining lease prevails over native title to the extent of any inconsistency for the duration of the title.

For tenements to be validly granted (or renewed) after 23 December 1996 the special “right to negotiate” regime established by the Native Title Act must be followed.

It is important to note that the existence of a native title claim is not an indication that native title in fact exists to the land covered by the claim, as this is a matter ultimately determined by the Federal Court.

The Company must also comply with Aboriginal heritage legislation requirements which require heritage survey work to be undertaken ahead of the commencement of exploration and mining operations.

The Directors will closely monitor the potential effect of native title claims involving tenements in which the Company has or may have an interest.

(f)

Government Regulation

Any material adverse changes in government policies or legislation that affect mining, processing, development and mineral exploration activities, income tax laws, royalty regulations, government subsidies and environmental issues may affect the viability and profitability of the Company’s current and future projects.

The mining, processing, development and mineral exploration activities of the Company’s projects are subject to various laws governing prospecting, development, production, taxes, labour standards and occupational health, mine safety, toxic substances, land use, water use, indigenous land claims, and other matters. Furthermore, no assurance

22

can be given that new rules and regulations will not be enacted or that existing rules and regulations will not be applied in a manner which could limit or curtail production or development. Amendments to current laws and regulations governing operations and activities of mining or more stringent implementation thereof could have a substantial adverse impact on the current and any future project and hence the Company.

(g) Equipment and availability

The Company’s ability to undertake mining and exploration activities is dependent upon its ability to source and acquire appropriate mining equipment. Equipment is not always available and the market for mining equipment experiences fluctuations in supply and demand. If the Company is unable to source appropriate equipment economically or at all then this would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial or trading position.

7.4 General risks

(a) Economic

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

(b)

Market conditions

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • general economic outlook;

  • introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;

  • interest rates and inflation rates;

  • changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • terrorism or other hostilities.

The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company.

(c) Taxation

The acquisition and disposal of Securities will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Securities from a taxation viewpoint and generally.

23

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of subscribing for Securities under this Prospectus.

(d)

Regulatory Risks

The Company’s exploration and development activities are subject to extensive laws and regulations relating to numerous matters including resource licence consent, conditions including environmental compliance and rehabilitation, health and worker safety, waste disposal, protection of the environment, native title and heritage matters, and other matters. The Company may require permits from regulatory authorities to authorise the Company’s operations. These permits relate to exploration, development, production and rehabilitation activities.

Obtaining necessary permits can be a time consuming process and there is a risk that Company will not obtain these permits on acceptable terms, in a timely manner or at all. The costs and delays associated with obtaining necessary permits and complying with these permits and applicable laws and regulations could materially delay or restrict the Company from proceeding with the development of a Project or the operation or development of a mine. Any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or permits, even if inadvertent, could result in material fines, penalties or other liabilities. In extreme cases, failure could result in suspension of the Company’s activities or forfeiture of one or more of the Tenements.

7.5 Speculative 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 Prospectus

Therefore, the Securities to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those 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 pursuant to this Prospectus.

24

8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

8.1 Litigation

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company is not involved in any legal proceedings and the Directors are not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.

8.2 Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company’s securities.

This Prospectus is a “transaction specific prospectus”. In general terms a “transaction specific prospectus” is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the 3 months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

(i) the annual financial report most recently lodged by the Company with the ASIC;

  • (ii) any half-year financial report lodged by the Company with the ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC; and

25

(iii) any continuous disclosure documents given by the Company to ASX in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules as referred to in section 674(1) of the Corporations Act after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC.

Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal office hours.

Details of documents lodged by the Company with ASX since the date of lodgement of the Company’s latest annual financial report and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC are set out in the table below.

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is initially set by the Constitution and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of non-executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director. The current amount has been set at an amount not to exceed $200,000 per annum.

A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (ie non-cash performance incentives such as Options, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

The following table shows the total (and proposed) annual remuneration paid/ (payable) to both executive and non-executive directors.

8.8 Electronic prospectus

If you have received this Prospectus as an electronic Prospectus, please ensure that you have received the entire Prospectus accompanied by the Application Form. If you have not, please phone the Company on +61 8 9380 9098 and the Company will send you, for free, either a hard copy or a further electronic copy of the Prospectus, or both. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy of this Prospectus from the Company’s website at www.carnavaleresources.com.

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or replacement prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.

8.9 Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.

8.10 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company will not be issuing share or option certificates. The Company is a participant in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.

Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Securities issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

30

Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

8.11 Privacy Act

If you complete an application for Securities, you will be providing personal information to the Company (directly or by the Company’s share registry). The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your application, service your needs as a holder of equity securities in the Company, facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a Securityholder and carry out administration.

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the Company’s share registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. Please contact the Company or its share registry if you wish to do so at the relevant contact numbers set out in this Prospectus.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the application for Securities, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.
