About Dateline
Dateline holds a 100% beneficial interest in and is the legal owner of 99.9995% of the shares in Matai, a Fijian incorporated private company with exploration and development activities located on the far northeast of Vanua Levu Island, the second largest of the islands in the Republic of Fiji.
Matai was incorporated in Fiji in 1996 as a private mineral exploration company and has spent approximately A$4.5M on exploration and development activities on the Nukudamu Project.
Persuant to the Agreement, the Company and the shareholders of Dateline intend to establish an incorporated Joint Venture to explore the Nukudamu Project.
Dateline is wholly owned by Mr Mark Johnson, a Fijian born resident of Australia. Mr Johnson was formerly the Deputy Chairman of Macquarie Bank Ltd and was the second longest serving member of the Macquarie Bank Board. Mr Johnson is one of the most accomplished and experienced corporate advisers in Australia having joined Macquarie Bank’s predecessor, Hill Samuel, in 1971 as Joint Managing Director with Mr David Clarke.
Subject to shareholder approval, Mr Johnson will be appointed to the Board of the Company in the capacity of Executive Chairman. Mr Johnson is also the Chairman of Alinta Energy and an Independent Director of ASX Listed Westfield Group (ASX:WDC).
The Nukudamu Project
Location and Access
The Nukudamu Project is located approximately 70km north east of Labasa, the largest town on the island of Vanua Levu, Fiji. Access to the project area is via boat from Labasa. Footpaths and logging tracks exist across the project area.
Resources
An Inferred Resource of 4.5 million tonnes at 1.2% copper ( Cu ), 3.9% zinc ( Zn ), 29g/t silver ( Ag ) and 0.3g/t gold ( Au ) in accordance with the JORC Guidelines has been estimated for the project area, located in the vicinity of the historical open pit Udu Copper Mine.

A total of 37 diamond drill holes have been completed across the Nukudamu Project area, consisting of:
-
21 HQ diamond drill holes for 2,066.6m of drilling by Matai in 2008 (UDH020-040);
-
12 PQ diamond drill holes for 1,427.4mof drilling by Matai in 1997 (MUHPDD1-12); and
-
4 HQ diamond drill holes for 222.8m of drilling by Geopacific in 1990 (GPDDH1-4).
-
All drill holes were used in the current resource estimation.
Recent drill holes (UDH020-040): were located using a hand held GPS (UTM WGS84, Zone 60); surveyed using an Eastman single shot downhole survey camera at approximately 30m intervals; and, comprised of angled holes (generally -60[o] ) orientated to approximately 319[o] magnetic, so as to be close to orthogonal to the mineralisation as possible. The drilling has an approximate section spacing of 80m over a strike length of 650m, with holes at intervals of approximately 40m per section. Historical holes that could be located were picked up using hand held GPS.
Density data was collected from the drill core by physically measuring segments of half core with engineering calipers, then weighing the core.
The resource estimation was undertaken using classical end area sectional techniques due to the relatively wide spacing of drilling and complexity of the mineralisation. Outlined mineralised blocks were projected half of the distance between each drill section and half the distance between adjacent holes on each section. Mineralised drill intersections, which form the interpreted mineralisation blocks, were composed on the basis of a lower cutoff of 0.5% Zinc, with up to 2m of continuous internal dilution included within the composite. Copper, lead, gold, silver and arsenic grades were composited over the same intervals.
Mineralisation has been extrapolated from surface to a maximum depth of 100m below the surface.
Significant potential for resource growth remains in the recently modeled, scantly drill tested, mineralised footwall strata. A subtle soil anomaly associated with this zone lies on the northern side of the resource. Additional mineralisation potential lies along strike to the north east and within the immediate vicinity of the Udu mine area as indicated by coincident geochemical and VTEM anomalies.
Exploration Targets
The target mineralisation style is similar to the VMS copper/zinc mineralisation found at the Udu Mine. Typically this style of mineralisation occurs in clusters and additional mineralisation is likely to be hosted in basin sediments which broadly trend south west from the mine area, and beneath a covering blanket of ignimbrite rock.
Potential disseminated mineralisation that might be associated with a larger porphyry body at depth forms a secondary target. The presence of a deeper porphyry stock from which mineralisation in the mine area might be sourced, is suggested by the significant magnetic low immediately south of the mine area, which has also been identified in mapping.
A later market announcement will discuss the imminent drilling of three additional regional targets.

Mineralisation
The Udu Deposit is a hybrid VMS system wherein both low and high sulphidation styles of mineralisation are recognised. These styles represent two stages of mineralisation within an evolving hydrothermal system in an emerging basin environment. The mineralisation is hosted in a sequence of felsic dominated sediments which were largely sourced from an adjacent porphyry which was intruded and unroofed during basin development.
Low sulphidation mineralisation is comprised of zinc rich massive sulphide (with subsidiary copper, lead, silver and gold) with abundant barite. It occurs as a series of lenses that span the deposition of the host basin sequence. It contains low iron sphalerite and crystalline barite and is consistent with a low temperature sea floor exhaliative origin.
==> picture [423 x 249] intentionally omitted <==
Stratabound low sulphidation massive sphalerite (UDH035: 45m)
Structurally controlled copper rich high sulphidation mineralisation (with subsidiary zinc, silver and gold), occurs in dilational zones and cross cuts the stratigraphy. Some associated strata bound mineralisation is interpreted to be the result of fluids leaking into surrounding permeable stratigraphy.
The two mineralisation systems spatially and temporally overlap, with the low sulphidation zinc mineralisation generally pre dating the structurally hosted high sulphidation mineralisation, which may in part have remobilised the earlier low sulphidation mineralisation.
Historical Exploration
Between 1986 and 1991 the Udu Mine was held under SPL by Geopacific Limited (Geopacific), who explored the area mainly for its gold potential. Geopacific mapped and sampled gossans and drilled four diamond drillholes within and adjacent to the open pit.
Conto Resources Limited (ASX:CNO)

==> picture [150 x 80] intentionally omitted <==
Recent Exploration
Matai Holdings applied for a Special Prospecting Licence ( SPL ) over the Udu Mine area in 1995 (SPL1387) which was granted in 1996. Two additional licences SPL 1396 and SPL 1494 were applied for and granted in 1998 and 2012 respectively.
Geophysics
An Induced Polarisation ( IP ) and resistivity survey was conducted in 2003. The survey produced chargeability high and a small resistivity low over the open pit area. Drilling subsequently completed over these targets suggests that the chargeability high is associated with low sulphidation zinc mineralisation, and the resistivity low associated with the high sulphidation mineralisation.
In addition the survey detected a moderate chargeability high and adjacent resistivity low to the west of the open pit, in an area known as Mikeles Ridge. Both anomalies are beneath ignimbrite rocks which blanket this area and mask any geochemical signature at surface.
Geochemistry
Soil geochemistry has been conducted to the south and east of the mine area. Additional soil sampling has been conducted on regional traverse lines elsewhere within the project.
Gridding and sampling across the Udu Mine and near mine area was conducted on 100m spacing, with infill lines of 50m spacing across areas of interest.

Drilling
Matai have conducted two programmes of diamond drilling in the Udu Mine area.
The initial programme in 1997 comprised 1,427m in 12 vertical, PQ triple tube holes (MHUPDD0112). The drilling was largely designed to test for significant southern extensions to the mineralisation;
- A subsequent 2008 drill programme comprised 2,066m of HQ triple tube drilling in 21 holes (UDH020-40). The drilling comprised of angled holes (generally -60º to grid 330º) surveyed in 25m increments. The drilling was dual purpose to better understand the geology and mineralisation and to promote the preparation of a resource estimate.

About Fiji
Geography
Fiji is an archipelago of more than 320 islands, atolls and islets with a total landmass of 18,274 square kilometres in the southwest Pacific. Its geographic location and size has long made Fiji a transportation and communications hub for the South Pacific islands, including being an ethnically and culturally diverse population.
Economy
Fiji is one of the most developed of the South Pacific economies with natural resources in arable land, forestry, minerals, and fisheries. Fiji has been an independent country since October 1970 when it ceased being a British colony. Its legal system reflects this colonial heritage being based on British common law. Many of its commercial statutes are modelled on Australian, English and New Zealand legislation for precedents and practice.

==> picture [150 x 80] intentionally omitted <==
Political Status
Despite its developing state status, Fiji is the leading independent country within the Pacific Islands region in terms of its civil service, economic development, and state capacity. It has a well-developed legal system and police service necessary for effective domestic law and order. These have remained remarkably intact despite the episodic political instability at the apex of the governance process Fiji has exhibited from time to time.
Fiji has been governed since December 2006 by a military appointed government headed by Prime Minister Frank Bainimarama. The Bainimarama Government abrogated the 1997 constitution and in July 2009 issued a five-year plan known as the “Roadmap” for returning Fiji to a parliamentary democracy. Under this plan, the Government has scheduled elections for September 2014.
The Bainimarama Government has adopted a national development strategy that seeks to promote economic growth outside the Suva-Nausori corridor on Viti Levu. This has been a key Government focus. In addition, the Government stated in mid-2011 that they aim to make mining a major source of income (equalling sugar and tourism). These have provided a positive climate for investment in Vanua Levu and the outlying islands.
On July 30, 2012 Australia and New Zealand moved to restore ties with Fiji agreeing to restore high commissioners between the three countries.
Transaction Details
The Company, Dateline and the Dateline shareholders have conditionally agreed to enter into an incorporated joint venture ( Joint Venture ) for the purposes of exploring for minerals in the area covered by the SPLs ( Project ) and pursuant to which the Company has the right to acquire up to a 100% interest in Dateline.

Existing Projects
Lone Wolf and Cardinia Bore Projects
The Lone Wolf and Cardinia Bore Projects are located north-east of Leonora within the North Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia.
Conto Resources Limited (ASX:CNO)
11
==> picture [150 x 80] intentionally omitted <==
As outlined in the Company’s 2011 IPO Prospectus, the Company entered into an option and farm-in agreement to acquire up to an 80% interest in the Cardinia Bore Project. Complete details on the farm-in agreement can be found in the Company’s IPO Prospectus on ASX and the Company’s website.
The Lone Wolf Project licence areas were granted in June 2012, and available historical reports identified a number of significant drill intercepts of gold mineralisation, including drilling intercepts of up to 6m @ 3.35g/t Au. The limited, wide spaced drilling outlined a continuous mineralised strike of 830m.
Exploration Programme – Existing Projects
A Mobile Metal Ion ( MMI ) and rock chip sampling work programme conducted at the Cardinia Bore Project defined numerous low level anomalies of limited areal extent, not warranting further investigation at this point in time. On-ground inspection of the mineralisation indicated that the vein widths at surface were of limited width and extent.
A work program to investigate the potential of the Lone Wolf Project is currently being conducted to investigate extent of mineralization and determine further work to be conducted across the project.
In light of the recent results at the Cardinia Bore Project, all work has been postponed until the completion of the initial phase of field based reconnaissance and target ranking at the Lone Wolf Project.
The Company is investigating additional tenement acquisition opportunities in the vicinity of the Cardinia Bore Project that demonstrate higher prospectivity.
Cash Position
The Company’s cash position as at 30 September 2012 was $3,715,820. It is proposed that the Company’s estimated expenditure from those funds over the following quarter to 31 December 2012 (the end of the First Farm-in Period) ( Q4, 2012 ) will be as set out in the table below:
| Item | Amount (A$) |
|---|---|
| Estimated costs of the Transaction | 100,000 |
| Cardinia Bore Project | 6,250 |
| Lone Wolf Project | 75,000 |
| Nukudamu Project | 450,000 |
| Corporate administration | 110,000 |
| Working capital* | 2,974,570 |
| TOTAL | 3,715,820 |
*Allocation of working capital beyond Q4, 2012 will be determined following review of exploration results.
Following review of the results from Company’s activities on the Lone Wolf and Cardinia Bore Projects and the Nukudamu Project (including results from the Phase 1 Exploration Programme) during Q4, 2012, the Company will determine whether or not to continue sole funding the Nukudamu Project and will review its planned expenditure on all assets for the following quarter.
