IMPORTANT NOTES

Shareholders should read this document in its entirety and, if in doubt, should consult their professional advisors.

This Prospectus is dated 17 June 2010 and a copy of this Prospectus was lodged with the ASIC on that date. The ASIC and ASX take no responsibility for the content of this Prospectus.

The expiry date of the Prospectus is 18 July 2011 (Expiry Date). No Options will be allotted or issued on the basis of this Prospectus after the Expiry Date.

Applications for Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be submitted on an original Entitlement and Acceptance Form which accompanies this Prospectus.

This Prospectus does not constitute an offer in any place in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer.

The distribution of this Prospectus in jurisdictions outside Australia may be restricted by law and persons who come into possession of this Prospectus should seek advice on and observe any of these restrictions. Failure to comply with these restrictions may violate securities laws. Applicants who are resident in countries other than Australia should consult their professional advisers as to whether any governmental or other consents are required or whether any other formalities need to be considered and followed.

NEW ZEALAND SHAREHOLDERS

The Offer to New Zealand investors is a regulated offer made under Australian and New Zealand law. In Australia, this is Chapter 8 of the Corporations Act and the Corporations Regulations 2001. In New Zealand, this is Part 5 of the Securities Act 1978 and the Securities (Mutual Recognition of Securities Offerings – Australia) Regulations 2008.

The Offer and the content of the Prospectus are principally governed by Australian rather than New Zealand law. In the main, the Corporations Act sets out how the Offer must be made.

There are differences in how securities are regulated under Australian law.

2

The rights, remedies, and compensation arrangements available to New Zealand investors in Australian securities may differ from the rights, remedies, and compensation arrangements for New Zealand securities.

Both the Australian and New Zealand securities regulators have enforcement responsibilities in relation to the Offer. If you need to make a complaint about the Offer, please contact the Securities Commission, Wellington, New Zealand. The Australian and New Zealand regulators will work together to settle your complaint.

The taxation treatment of Australian securities is not the same as for New Zealand securities.

If you are uncertain about whether this investment is appropriate for you, you should seek the advice of an appropriately qualified financial adviser.

The Offer may involve a currency exchange risk. The currency for the Options is not New Zealand dollars. The value of the Options will go up or down according to changes in the exchange rate between that currency and New Zealand dollars. These changes may be significant. If you expect the Options to pay any amounts in a currency that is not New Zealand dollars, you may incur significant fees in having the funds credited to a bank account in New Zealand in New Zealand dollars.

As noted in the Prospectus at Section 3.6, the Company will apply to the ASX for quotation of the Options offered under this Prospectus. If quotation is granted, the Options offered under this Prospectus will be able to be traded on the ASX. If you wish to trade the Options through that market, you will have to make arrangements for a participant in that market to sell the Options on your behalf. As the ASX does not operate in New Zealand, the way in which the market operates, the regulation of participants in that market, and the information available to you about the securities and trading may differ from securities markets that operate in New Zealand.

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.

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.

ELECTRONIC PROSPECTUS

Any person accessing the electronic version of this Prospectus for the purpose of making an investment in the Company must be an Australian resident and must only access the Prospectus from within Australia.

The Corporations Act prohibits any person passing onto another person an Entitlement and Acceptance Form unless it is attached to a hard copy of this Prospectus or it accompanies the complete and unaltered version of this Prospectus. Any person may obtain a hard copy of this Prospectus free of charge by contacting the Company.

RISK FACTORS

The Options offered by this Prospectus are of a speculative nature. Prospective investors in the Company should be aware that subscribing for Options the subject of this Prospectus involves a number of specific risks. Details of these specific risks and other general risks are set out in Section 6 of this Prospectus and investors are urged to consider

3

those risks carefully (and, if necessary, consult their professional adviser) before deciding whether to invest in the Company.

3. DETAILS OF THE OFFER

3.1 Offer

By this Prospectus, pursuant to a non-renounceable entitlement issue, the Company offers for subscription one (1) Option for every two (2) Shares held by Shareholders on the Record Date at an issue price of one cent ($0.01) per Option. Fractional entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

The Options issued will be exercisable at twenty cents ($0.20) per Share on or before 30 September 2012.

Based on the capital structure of the Company (and assuming no existing Options are exercised prior to the Record Date), the maximum number of Options to be issued pursuant to the Offer is approximately 25,964,091 Options. The Offer will raise approximately $250,000. The purpose of the Offer and the use of funds raised are set out in Section 4 of this Prospectus.

Holders of existing Options will not be entitled to participate in the Offer. The Company currently has 800,000 Options on issue as at the date of this Prospectus, which Options may be exercised by the Option holder prior to the Record Date in order to participate in the Offer.

3.2 How to Accept the Offer

Your acceptance of the Offer must be made on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form accompanying this Prospectus. Your acceptance must not exceed your Entitlement as shown on that form. If it does, your acceptance will be deemed to be for the maximum Entitlement.

You may participate in the Offer as follows:

  • (a) if you wish to accept your Entitlement in full:

  • (i) complete the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, filling in the details in the spaces provided; and

  • (ii) attach your cheque for the amount indicated on that relevant Entitlement and Acceptance Form; or

  • (b) if you only wish to accept part of your Entitlement:

  • (i) fill in the number of Securities you wish to accept in the space provided on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form; and

  • (ii) attach your cheque for the appropriate application monies (at $0.01 per Option); or

  • (c) if you do not wish to accept all or part of your Entitlement, you are not obliged to do anything.

All cheques must be drawn on an Australian bank or bank draft made payable in Australian currency to “Resource Star Limited – Trust Account” and crossed “Not Negotiable”.

Alternatively, Applicants may pay via BPAY by following the instructions set out on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

6

Your completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form and cheque must reach the Company’s share registry no later than 5.00pm WST on the Closing Date.

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

3.3 Minimum Subscription

There is no minimum subscription in respect of the Offer.

3.4 Underwriting

The Offer is not underwritten.

3.5 Shortfall

Any Entitlement not taken up pursuant to the Offer will form the Shortfall and will be dealt with in accordance with the Mandate with Allegra Capital Pty Ltd (Allegra). Accordingly, Shareholders should not apply for the Shortfall unless directed to do so by Allegra.

The offer of any Shortfall Options is a separate offer made pursuant to this Prospectus and will remain open after the Closing Date. The issue price of any Shortfall Options shall be $0.01 being the price and terms at which the Entitlement has been offered to Shareholders pursuant to this Prospectus.

3.6 Australian Securities Exchange Listing

Application for official quotation by ASX of the Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus will be made within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus. If approval is not obtained from ASX before the expiration of 3 months after the date of issue of the Prospectus, (or such period as modified by the ASIC), the Company will not issue any Options and will repay all application monies for the Securities within the time prescribed under the Corporations Act, without interest.

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

3.7 Allotment of Options

Options issued pursuant to the Offer will be allotted as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. The Company will allot the Options on the basis of a Shareholder’s Entitlement. Where the number of Options issued is less than the number applied for, or where no allotment is made, surplus application monies will be refunded without any interest to the applicant as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.

Pending the allotment and issue of the Options 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.

7

3.8 Overseas Shareholders

This Offer does not, and is not intended to, constitute an offer in any place or jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or to issue this Prospectus.

It is not practicable for the Company to comply with the securities laws of overseas jurisdictions having regard to the number of overseas Shareholders, the number and value of Securities these Shareholders would be offered and the cost of complying with regulatory requirements in each relevant jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Offer is not being extended and Securities will not be issued to Shareholders with a registered address which is outside Australia or New Zealand.

Shareholders resident in New Zealand should consult their professional advisors as to whether any government or other consents are required, or other formalities need to be observed, to enable them to exercise their Entitlements under the Offer.

3.9 Taxation Implications

The Directors do not consider that it is appropriate to give Applicants advice regarding the taxation consequences of applying for Securities under this Prospectus, as it is not possible to provide a comprehensive summary of the possible taxation consequences. The Company, its advisers and officers, do not accept any responsibility or liability for any taxation consequences to Applicants. Potential Applicants should, therefore, consult their own professional tax adviser in connection with the taxation implications of the Securities offered pursuant to this Prospectus.

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

The Company will not be issuing share certificates. The Company will apply to ASX to participate 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 Options allotted 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.

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.

3.11 Privacy Act

If you complete an application for Options, 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 Shareholder, facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a Shareholder and carry out administration.

8

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 ASTC Settlement Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the application for Options, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.

5. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO OPTIONS AND UNDERLYING SECURITIES

5.1 Rights Attaching to Options

The Options entitle the holder to subscribe for Shares on the following terms and conditions:

  • (a) Each Option gives the Option holder the right to subscribe for one Share. To obtain the right given by each Option, the Option holder must exercise the Options in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Options.

  • (b) The Options will expire at 5.00pm (WST) on 30 September 2012 (Expiry Date). Any Option not exercised before the Expiry Date will automatically lapse on the Expiry Date.

  • (c) The amount payable upon exercise of each Option will be $0.20 (Exercise Price).

  • (d) The Options held by each Option holder may be exercised in whole or in part, and if exercised in part, multiples of 1,000 must be exercised on each occasion.

  • (e) An Option holder may exercise their Options by lodging with the Company, before the Expiry Date:

  • (i) a written notice of exercise of Options specifying the number of Options being exercised (Exercise Notice); and

  • (ii) a cheque or electronic funds transfer for the Exercise Price for the number of Options being exercised.

  • (f) An Exercise Notice is only effective when the Company has received the full amount of the Exercise Price in cleared funds.

  • (g) Within 10 business days of receipt of the Exercise Notice accompanied by the Exercise Price, the Company will allot the number of Shares required under these terms and conditions in respect of the number of Options specified in the Exercise Notice.

  • (h) The Options are freely transferable.

  • (i) All Shares allotted upon the exercise of Options will upon allotment rank pari passu in all respects with other Shares.

  • (l) There are no participating rights or entitlements inherent in the Options and Option holders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to Shareholders during the currency of the Options. However, the Company will ensure that for the purposes of determining entitlements to any such issue, the Record Date will be at least 7 business days after the issue is announced. This will give Option holders the opportunity to exercise their Options prior to the date for determining entitlements to participate in any such issue.

13

  • (m) An Option does not confer the right to a change in exercise price or a change in the number of underlying securities over which the Option can be exercised.

5.2 Rights Attaching to Shares (being the underlying securities)

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

The rights, privileges and restrictions attaching to Shares can be summarised as follows:

(a) Notice of Meetings

Each Shareholder is entitled to receive notice of general meetings of the Company. Except in certain circumstances, Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to speak or to vote at general meetings of the Company or to join in demanding a poll. Shareholders may requisition general meetings in accordance with the Corporations Act.

(b)

Voting

At a general meeting, on a show of hands, every person present who is either a member, a proxy, an attorney or a representative of a Shareholder has one vote. At the taking of a poll, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy, attorney or representative has one vote for each Share held.

(c)

Dividends

The Directors may from time to time authorise and pay dividends out of the profits of the Company. Dividends are payable in proportion to the number of Shares held by Shareholders.

(d)

Winding Up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution, divide among the Shareholders the whole or any part of the property of the Company. The liquidator may also, with the sanction of a special resolution, vest the whole or any part of the property in a trustee on trust for Shareholders.

(e)

Transfer of Shares

A Shareholder may transfer any Share held by them by:

  • (i) an ASTC Transfer or any other method of transferring or dealing in Shares introduced by ASX or operated in accordance with the ASTC Settlement Rules or Listing Rules and in any such case recognised under the Corporations Act; or

  • (ii) An instrument in writing in any usual or common form or in any other form that the Directors approve.

14

(f) Allotment of Shares

The Directors may, subject to the Constitution, issue new Shares of such amount specified in the resolution.

15

6. RISK FACTORS

Applicants should consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, before deciding whether to apply for Shares. Potential Applicants should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Options.

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

6.1 Specific Australian Risks

Title Risks and Native Title

Interests in tenements in Australia are governed by the respective State legislation and are evidenced by the granting of licences or leases. Each licence or lease is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose title to or its interest in tenements if licence conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet expenditure commitments.

It is also possible that, in relation to tenements which the Company has an interest in or will in the future acquire such an interest, there may be areas over which legitimate common law native title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If native title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to tenements (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected.

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

Tenure and Access

Mining and exploration tenements are subject to periodic renewal. There is no guarantee that current or future tenements or future applications for production tenements will be approved.

The Company’s tenements are subject to numerous State-specific legislation conditions. The renewal of the term of a granted tenement is also subject to the discretion of the relevant Minister. Renewal conditions may include increased expenditure and work commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the tenements comprising the Company’s projects. The imposition of new conditions or the inability to meet those conditions may adversely affect the operations, financial position and/or performance of the Company

Uranium Specific Risks

The current and future operations of the Company in relation to uranium, including exploration, appraisal and production activities, may be affected by a range of factors, including:

Government regulation and policy

Uranium mining in Australia is subject to extensive regulation by State and Federal Governments in relation to exploration, development, production,

16

exports, taxes and royalties, labour standards, occupational health, waste disposal, protection and rehabilitation of the environment, mine reclamation, mine safety, toxic and radioactive substances, native title and other matters. Compliance with such laws and regulations may increase the costs of exploring, drilling, developing, constructing, operating and closing mines and other production facilities.

The Federal Government currently permits the mining and export of uranium under strict international agreements designed to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons. The export of uranium is controlled by the Federal Government through its licensing process and it is understood that Australian uranium can only be exported to those countries who undertake to use it for peaceful purposes.

Mining Policy

Both Federal Coalition and Labour Party policy favours the development of new uranium mines, albeit under strict environmental, heritage and nuclear safeguards. However, there can be no assurance that the policy will not change in the future and this may adversely affect the long-term prospects of the Company.

Mining uranium in Western Australia was prohibited under the policy of the former State Government from June 2002 until to September 2008. On November 17, 2008, the current State Government revoked the ban and is now focusing on developing this sector. Although the ban on uranium mining was only lifted recently, Western Australian regulators and the mining industry have been managing the safe mining, transport and export of radioactive material in the mineral sands and tantalum sectors for 40 years. The WA Government is working closely with other States to build on their industry experience and is committed to ensuring that further development of Western Australia’s regulatory framework is world’s best practice and that associated departments have the resources to deal with radiation issues associated with uranium mining.

Pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act 1953 (Cth) and the Northern Territory SelfGovernment) Regulations 1978 (Cth) the Commonwealth has reserved its powers on uranium mining in the Northern Territory. The NT Mining Act requires that the Northern Territory Minister for Mines must consult with the Commonwealth Minister for Industry, Tourism and Resources before granting a mining title that relates to uranium, and must act in accordance with any advice that the Commonwealth Minister provides.

The Tasmanian Government supports exploration to the usual mining and environmental approval processes. In 2007 the Government and Opposition jointly voted down a Greens party proposal to ban uranium exploration and development in Tasmania.

The Government of Malawi is currently in the process of putting in place a uranium mining legislation as the country does not currently have such legislation although it has approved uranium mining to an Australian company.

There can be no assurance that these policies will not change in the future and this may adversely affect the long-term prospects of the Company.

Export Policy

The Commonwealth Government maintains tight controls over the export of uranium through its licensing process. Uranium may only be sold and exported in

17

accordance with the Customs (Prohibited Exports) Regulations 1958 (Cth) and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation (Safeguards) Act 1987 (Cth). Australian uranium can only be exported to countries that undertake to use it for peaceful purposes. Uranium mining itself is also extensively regulated. Complying with these laws and regulations increases the cost of exploring, drilling, developing, constructing, operating and closing mines and other production facilities. The approvals required are more rigorous than those for the mining of other metals. There is a risk that should economic deposits of uranium be discovered, the requisite government approvals may not be granted or may be significantly delayed, thereby rendering the deposits uneconomic.

Competition from alternative energy and public perception

Nuclear energy is in direct competition with other, more conventional sources of energy which include oil, gas, coal and hydro-electricity. These conventional energy sources may be provided at lower cost resulting in a decrease in demand for uranium.

Furthermore, the growth of the nuclear power industry (and resulting increase in the demand for uranium) beyond its current level will depend upon continued and increased acceptance of nuclear technology as a means of generating electricity. The nuclear industry is currently subject to negative public opinion due to political, technological and environmental factors. This may have an adverse impact on the demand for uranium and increase the regulation of uranium mining.

One of the arguments for nuclear energy is its substantially reduced level of carbon emissions. Alternative energy systems such as wind or solar also have very low levels, if any, of carbon emissions. However, to date these have not been efficient enough to be relied upon. Technology changes may occur that make alternative energy systems more efficient and reliable.

6.2 Specific Malawian Risks

Government Regulation and Policy

All minerals in Malawi are vested in the President on behalf of the Malawian people. The exploration, mining and disposal of these minerals are governed by the Mines and Minerals Act 1981. The Administration of the Act is the responsibility of the Commissioner for Mines and Minerals in the Ministry of Energy and Mining.

There are numerous companies presently engaged in mining activities in Malawi.

The Directors of the Company are unaware of any legislation or policy within Malawi which could adversely affect the establishment of mining operations within the country.

There are risks attaching to exploration operations in a developing country which are not necessarily present in a developed country which can impact on a range of factors such as sovereign risk, safety, security, costs, ability to operate, country policy, fiscal provisions and laws and can lead to delays or even the suspension of operations.

No assurance can be given regarding future stability in Malawi or any other country in which the Company may have an interest.

18

Sovereign risk

Some of the Company’s project interests are located in Malawi which is considered to be a developing country and as such subject to emerging legal and political systems compared with the system in place in Australia.

Possible sovereign risks include without limitation changes in the terms of mining tenements, changes to royalty arrangements, changes to taxation rates and concessions and changes in the ability to enforce legal rights. Any of these factors may in the future adversely affect the financial performance of the Company and the market price of its Shares.

No assurance can be given regarding future stability in both Australia and Malawi.

Title Risks

The mining tenements in which the Company has or may acquire an interest in are subject to the applicable local laws and regulations. There is no guarantee that any tenement applications or conversions in which the Company has a current or potential interest will be granted.

Tenements (or applications) in which the Company has an interest are (or, if granted, will be) subject to the relevant conditions applying in Malawi. Failure to comply with these conditions may render the licences liable to forfeiture.

All of the projects in which the Company has an interest will be subject to application for tenement renewal from time to time. Renewal of the term of each tenement is subject to applicable legislation. If a tenement is not renewed for any reason, the Company may suffer significant damage through loss of the opportunity to develop and discover any mineral resources on that tenement. However, the Directors are not aware of any reason why renewal of the term of any tenement will not be granted.

The Company is reliant to a certain extent on the cooperation and compliance of parties to the agreements to which it is a party.

Legal System in Malawi

The legal system operating in Malawi may be less developed than more established countries, which may result in risk such as:

  • (a) political difficulties in obtaining effective legal redress in the courts whether in respect of a breach of law or regulation, or in an ownership dispute;

  • (b) a higher degree of discretion on the part of governmental agencies;

  • (c) inconsistencies or conflicts between and within various laws, regulations, decrees, orders and resolutions; or

  • (d) the relative inexperience of the judiciary and courts in such matters.

There can be no assurance joint ventures, licences, license application or other legal arrangements will not be adversely effected by the actions of the government authorities or others and the effectiveness of and enforcement of such arrangements cannot be assured.

19

6.3 No guarantee of exploration success

Mineral exploration is inherently associated with risk. Notwithstanding the experience, knowledge and careful evaluation a company brings to an exploration project there is no assurance that recoverable and saleable mineral resources will be identified. Even if mineral resources are identified, other factors such as technical difficulties, geological conditions, adverse changes in government policy or legislation or lack of access to sufficient funding may mean that the resource is not economically recoverable or may otherwise preclude the Company from successfully exploiting the discovery.

Investors should note that in relation to its Projects, any potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature and, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource in respect of the Projects at the date of this Prospectus apart from the Malawi Livingstonia Chombe Project which is currently being independently resource evaluated and that it is uncertain that further exploration will result in the determination of a mineral resource.

Mining and exploration tenements are subject to periodic renewal. There is no guarantee that current or future tenements or future applications for production tenements will be approved.

In Malawi, exploration expenditure is a warrant of expenditure and any deficit in expenditure is payable to the Malawi Government, unless exemption from expenditure is granted by the Minister.

6.4

Compulsory Work Obligations

Each of the Company’s tenements is subject to expenditure and work commitments which must be met in order to keep such tenements in good standing. These commitments may be varied on application by the tenement holder but any such variation is at the sole discretion of the Minister administering the relevant mining legislation. If no variation is approved, and there is failure to meet the commitments, this could lead to forfeiture of the tenement.

6.5 Competition Risk

The industry in which the Company will be involved is subject to domestic and global competition. While the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, which activities or actions may, positively or negatively, affect the operating and financial performance of the Company’s projects and business.

6.6 Funding Risk and Future Capital Needs

In the event the Company does not achieve the minimum subscription under this Prospectus, there is a risk that it may not be able to continue to fund its ongoing exploration programs (unless another funding source can be secured). This could adversely affect the ability of the Company to grow organically or through acquisitions.

In these circumstances, shareholders may face the loss of a substantial portion of their investment.

20

6.7 General Economic Climate

Factors such as inflation, currency fluctuations, interest rates, supply and demand of capital, commodity price, proposed resource super profits tax legislation and industrial disruption have an impact on business costs, commodity prices and stock market prices. The Company’s operating costs, possible future revenues and future profitability can be affected by these factors, which are beyond the control of the Company.

6.8 Potential Acquisitions

As part of its business strategy, the Company may make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, complementary companies, products or technologies. Any such future transactions would be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in making acquisitions of companies, products and technologies.

6.9 Reliance on Key Employees

The Company does and will rely on a number of key employees. The Company has in place employment contracts with key employees and has the objective of providing attractive employment conditions in general to assist in retaining key employees. However, there can be no guarantee that the Company can retain its key employees.

6.10 Share Market

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

  • (a) general economic outlook;

  • (b) interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (c) currency fluctuations;

  • (d) metal price fluctuations;

  • (e) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (f) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (g) terrorism or other hostilities.

6.11 Investment Speculative

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 Shares offered under this Prospectus. Therefore, the Shares 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 Shares.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Shares pursuant to this Prospectus.

21

8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

8.1 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 “transaction specific prospectuses” are only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on the 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 12 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

24

  • (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.

8.9 Update since the Company was relisted in February 2010

The Chintheche Project was situated about 240km north of the capital of Lilongwe and was originally targeted as a possible sandstone-hosted uranium opportunity.

The Company noted in its prospectus dated 11 December 2009 that analytical work was not yet completed to more fully understand the potential of the Chintheche tenement.

The Company’s exploration work has since concluded that the significant uranium-channel radiometric response seen in the UNDP airborne geophysical survey, which had been the focus of exploration, was most likely to be due to the monazite content of the heavy mineral sands discovered along the shore of Lake Malawi. As the Company does not have a mandate to explore for mineral sands deposits, it has decided to relinquish the tenement at the end of the current three year term.

As noted above, unless exemption from expenditure is granted by the Minister, any deficit in expenditure in relation to a tenement is payable to the Malawi Government. The Company has applied for exemption from expenditure in relation to the Chintheche tenement in order to avoid owing a debt of approximately US$294,000.00 to the Malawi Government. The Company is confident that the exemption will be granted on the grounds that the Company has expended over and above the expenditure requirement on other Malawi projects.
