AGM PRESENTATION MATERIALS
Force Commodities Limited (Force or the Company) (ASX: 4CE) hereby provides a copy of the presentation materials that will be addressed by the Company's Chairman and Executive Director at the Company's 2017 Annual General Meeting (AGM) to be held at llam (WST) today.
Yours sincerely FORC£,COMMDITIES LIMITED
MICHAEL FRY COMPANY SECRETARY

Chairman's Address - 2017 AGM
"As was mentioned in my Chairman's Letter which accompanied the 2016 Annual Report, the resources industry has experienced a recent period of uncertainty but now enters an era of renewed interest and optimism, with commodity prices having shown improvement, and increased investment market activity in terms of raisings and M&A activity.
Structural adjustments are often required in changing times and at Force we too are adjusting with these changing times.
Our Company has recently taken the strategic decision to bring in a new Board and management to reinvigorate our Company and to bring in the necessary skills and disciplines required to take your Company forward.
Myself and my fellow directors, with the exception of Patrick, are all newcomers to your Company.
Besides having strong expertise in our chosen fields, I am confident in saying to you, our shareholders, that we three are men of strong principle and ethics. Indeed a number of shareholders have telephoned the Company to congratulate us, the newcomers, on what many consider to be a much improved quality of ASX announcements and the level of disclosure being made. I can assure shareholders that as long as I am Chairman and as long as men of the calibre of Alistair and Peter are involved this will continue to be the case.
The new Board together with a new management team are all well versed in the areas of finance, geology, mining and metallurgy.
As a Company we have aggressive plans to advance the Company's projects and in so doing expect investors and analysts to better understand our projects, their prospects and most importantly their value.
We look forward to reporting back to you on our progress as calendar year 2017 unfolds."
MARK DARRAS CHAIRMAN

Halls Peak Project - Overview

- □ Located 65 km SW of Armidale, NSW
- Intermittent small-scale mining of Zn/Pb/Cu/Ag ores across multiple locations within the Halls Peak project area between 1916 and 1967
- $\Box$ No mining activity since 1967
- Recent drilling (2014 -2016) intercepted significant widths of high grade Zn/Pb/Cu/Ag mineralisation
- $\Box$ Drilling results indicate the strong potential for development of multiple, shallow, high grade Zn/Pb/Cu/Ag deposits
- $\Box$ Initial focus is at Gibsons
- Gibsons is located on Crown Land Special Mining Reserve
- $\Box$ No Native Title
- □ Near established infrastructure (road, rail, power)
- Access to skilled labour from Armidale region EL4474, EL5339: 100% owned EL7679: 55% owned

Halls Peak Project - Gibsons
Mineralisation - Gibsons
- $\Box$ Interpreted to be a volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposit
- □ Mineralisation exposed at surface and much of the mineralisation identified from drilling lies in up to four different sub-vertical horizons (lenses)
- □ Lenses with typical dimensions of:
- widths 0.30 to 20m; $\mathbf{u}$
- lengths of up to 150m; $\blacksquare$
- depths of at least 100m; open $\blacksquare$
- $\Box$ Mineralisation grades reported of up to 48% Zn, 27% Pb, 7% Cu and 1900 g/t Ag
- □ Metallurgical test-work indicates substantial density difference between gangue and base metal minerals, indicating low cost gravity concentration techniques are applicable

- □ regionally situated at the southern end of the Lachlan Fold belt, a zone in New South Wales containing many mineral deposits and mines
- located west of the Gilmore $\Box$ Suture, a major north northwest trending tectonic feature
- The Gilmore Suture broadly defines a 300km long belt of gold mineralisation in which several significant mines and numerous prospects are located including Lake Cowal, West Wyalong, Gidginbung-Temora and Mt Adrah
