In the three months ending September 2018, Dateline undertook the following activities:

Gold Links

  1. Assess the digitised data for the Gold Links Mine;

  2. Reviewed feasibility of recommencing operations from the 9450RL.

  3. Reviewed alternate methods to develop a second method of egress which will also give us access to lower areas of the mine; and

  4. Validated the results of the 1977 extension of the 2150 vein to 240ft below the main level of the Gold Links adit

Permitting

There were no new permitting developments for the September ’18 quarter.

Compliance

The Company remains in compliance of all regulatory requirements.

Sacramento zone

The Sacramento zone forms part of the Gold Links mine and is located a few hundred metres away from the 2150 Gold Links vein.

The Sacramento zone was last mined by shrink stooping in 1902. Mining occurred over three levels for only 75 metres below the surface (225ft) and for approximately 360m (1100ft) per level. In 1977 several diamond drill holes to test for mineralisation below the old workings returned encouraging results. The historical drill holes are non JORC compliant and cannot be relied upon for resource estimation.

The Company has finalised plans for a surface drilling program to test the Sacramento zone at depth. The program is dependent on funding and weather

Carter and Raymond Mines

As announced on 21 September 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of the land that hosts the historic Raymond and Carter Mines. This land parcel abuts our Gold Links property and has known vein structures that appear to be extensions of the veins identified at the Gold Links mine.

The Carter Mine was in production until 1982. An Atlas Precious Metals non JORC compliant Estimated Geological Resource report states that the Raymond and Carter properties have the potential to host 1.5million tonnes at 15.5 grams per tonne for a total of 750,000 ounces of gold.

This report cannot be verified and there is no JORC compliant evidence that the report is correct and nor is DTR stating that it will be successful in confirming this estimate. As part of our near-term strategy, we intend to conduct a JORC compliant exploration program over the area and report the results as they become available.

The Lucky Strike Mine and Mill Assets

Lucky Strike Mine

The Lucky Strike mine is located under 50km away from the Gold Links mine.

Permitting

There were no new permitting requirements for the September ’18 quarter.

Compliance

The Company remains in compliance of all regulatory requirements.

- Lucky Strike Mill Commissioning

Commissioning of the mill is now complete.

Permitting

No new permitting requirements for the September quarter.

Compliance

The Company remains in compliance of all regulatory requirements.

Udu – Fiji

The Company is still waiting on the results of metallurgical test-work being carried out on core samples which were collected from site in December 2017. We expect the test work to establish if the Udu ore is amenable to separation and floatation and if it is we would

actively seek a JV partner that is interested in completing a PFS for a 500,000tpa mining operation at Udu.

Finance

As disclosed in our annual report, the Company has been able to continue with operations and execute the Colorado strategy by obtaining loan funds. The tangible assets acquired in Colorado have been independently valued at USD14.4m (AU$20,000,000) excluding any value for the underlying minerals or prospectively thereof.
