CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
Dear Shareholders,
By way of this prospectus Jutt Holdings Limited ("Jutt Holdings" or "the Company") invites you to participate in this four for five non-renounceable entitlements issue of options.
Jutt Holdings has recently entered into an agreement to acquire an option over an initial 60% of the TayMunglinup tenements near Ravensthorpe in WA. These tenements cover a recently identified greenstone belt that Jutt believes is part of the same complex as the Ravensthorpe greenstone belt.
This area is very lightly explored and Jutt will initially conduct a helicopter borne survey over what it believes are the most prospective areas of the tenements. It is anticipated that the information gained from the data will better define areas that may be suitable for drilling.
Jutt continues to make progress on its other tenements and is working towards drilling at its Range and Turtle prospects in the Onslow Project. It is also working towards starting on ground exploration at its Liberty-Indee project.
The board of Jutt encourages you to take up your entitlements pursuant to this issue and looks forward to your continued participation in Jutt’s future.
Yours faithfully

1. SUMMARY OF THE RIGHTS ISSUE
The Rights Issue
Jutt Holdings Limited ACN 122 180 205 ("the Company") offers its Shareholders, as recorded on the share registry on the Record Date, the right to participate in a non-renounceable rights issue of 4 Options for every 5 Shares held at an issue price of one cent per Option. Each Option has an exercise price of twenty cents each and expires on 31 July 2009 (“the Rights Issue”).
The Rights Issue is non-renounceable. This means the right of each shareholder to subscribe for his or her entitlement pursuant to the Rights Issue may not be transferred to another person. In the calculation of any entitlement, fractions will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
Capital Structure
| Full | |
|---|---|
| Subscription | |
| Shares currently on issue | 43,480,297 |
| Existing options currently on issue | 1,957,148 |
| Maximum Number of new Options to be issued if all existing options are exercised before the Record Date |
36,349,956 |
Upon exercise of Options acquired under the Rights Issue, the percentage shareholding in the Company of Shareholders who do not take up all of their rights and exercise them will be diluted, unless they otherwise purchase Shares on ASX. Shareholders who take up all of their rights and exercise them will not have their percentage shareholding in Jutt Holdings Limited diluted by reason of the Rights Issue if and when options are exercised.
New Tenements
As announced to the market on 21 June 2007 the Company has acquired an option to take up an initial 60% interest in the Tay-Munglinup Tenements, covering approximately 540 square kilometres and 120km strike length over a prospective greenstone belt near Ravensthorpe, Western Australia. Further information in respect of the Tay-Munglinup Tenements is set out in Section 2. The Company has entered into an arrangement with Geoforce Pty Ltd ("Geoforce") pursuant to which Geoforce will carry out a helicopter borne survey over the Tay-Munglinup Tenements.
Purpose of the Offer
The purpose of the Rights Issue is to raise funds for initial exploration on the Tay-Munglinup Tenements.
Funds Raised
If all shareholders take up their entitlement to existing options, the offer will raise $363,499.56 before costs of the issue. The costs of the issue will be approximately $20,000.
Use of Funds
The funds raised by the offer will be applied to the Company’s initial helicopter borne survey of the TayMunglinup Tenements. The use of the money arising from the exercise of the options will be evaluated at the time of exercise and against the economic conditions and opportunities at that time.
- 5 -
Underwriting
Pursuant to an underwriting agreement with Findlay & Co Stockbrokers (Underwriters) Pty Ltd (ABN 38 078 379 683) (“the Underwriter”) will fully underwrite the Rights Issue and in doing so it has agreed to acquire the difference between 36,349,956 Options and the number of Options applied for by Shareholders. The Underwriter is the holder of Australian Financial Services License Number 247089. The underwriting fee is $10,000 plus GST.
In the event that not all of the options are subscribed for pursuant to the Rights Issue the Underwriter is obliged, within three business days of being notified by the Company, to subscribed for the shortfall.
Either the Underwriter or the Company may terminate its obligations under the arrangement by notice to the other party on or before the allotment of all the Options one of the following events occurs:
-
There is a breach of any obligation and such breach is not rectified within 7 days of the party not in default giving notice of the breach to the defaulting party;
-
If the S&P/ASX 200 Share Price Index is, at anytime at the close of normal trading 10% or more below its level as at the close of trading on 31 July 2007;
-
If the price of gold on the London Metals Exchange is, at anytime at the close of normal trading, 5% or more below its level at the close of trading on 31 July 2007.
At the date of this Prospectus the Underwriter holds a relevant interest in a total of 500,000 ordinary shares in the issued capital of the Company, being 1.15% of the voting power in the Company. If all of the current options are exercised, and none of the entitlements to Options under this Prospectus are accepted, the Underwriters voting power in the Company will increase to 46.16% upon exercise of the Options it acquires under the underwriting agreement.
Minimum Subscription
There is no minimum subscription.

The Tay-Munglinup Tenements in respect of which the Company has acquired an option to take up an initial 60% interest in may be summarised in the following table. Details of the option that the Company has acquired to take up this interest are summarised below.
| Tenement | Registered Holder | Date of Grant |
Date of Expiry | Blocks | Annual Expenditure |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E74/310 | Paul Askins and Golden Archer Resources Pty Ltd |
24 January 2006 |

An exploration licence in Western Australia remains in force for up to five years from the date of grant. Subject to any conditions imposed on the grant of licence, the holder of an exploration licence is permitted to carry out exploratory activities and is required to meet annual expenditure commitments. Failure to meet such requirements may result in forfeiture of the licence. The general conditions that the Company must adhere to include the capping of any drill holes, the rehabilitation of any disturbances to the land, the removal of any rubbish or equipment at the end of an exploration program and approval from the Department of Industry and resources before any mechanised equipment is used for surface disturbance.
In relation to E74/317 and E74/318 consent must be obtained from the Department of Industry and Resources before mining on any designated reserves and land covered by native vegetation. The Company cannot guarantee that consent will be given.
Subject to the Mining Act and receipt of Ministerial consent, the holder of an exploration licence may apply for a mining lease over the land the subject of the exploration licence. A mining lease is valid for up to 21 years from the date of grant and may be reviewed for a further 21 years.
Native title describes the rights and interests of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in land and waters, according to their traditional laws and customs, that are recognised under Australian law. The Tenements are affected by native title claims of the Esperance Nyungers (WC96/064) and the Ngadju (WC99/02).
The Directors have not undertaken the considerable research that would be required to determine the likelihood that existing claims may be successful, or the possibility of any further native title claims being made in the future. The Company cannot guarantee that a native title determination will not impact upon the Tenements. Compensatory obligations may be necessary in settling native title claims or in gaining access to conduct its current activities as native title and Aboriginal cultural heritage issues may affect the Company’s ability to gain access to its Tenements.
Askins and Golden Archer have entered into a Regional Standard Heritage Agreement ("Heritage Agreement") with the Goldfields Land and Sea Council on behalf of the Esperance Nyungars. The Heritage Agreement sets out a procedure for the completion of a survey report in relation to applications applied for by Askins and Golden Archer giving recommendations for the protection of any Aboriginal sites of significance. Furthermore, the Company has not sighted an access and clearance agreement in respect of E74/317 and E74/318, and as such, the Company is unable to state that access and clearance arrangements exist at all.
The Aboriginal Heritage Act (WA) applies in relation to the protection of places and objects, which may be of importance and significance to people of Aboriginal descent in Western Australia. In particular it applies to places and objects that may have sacred, ceremonial and ritual significance. Such sites must be reported and registered and may be declared protected areas. It is an offence for anyone to excavate, destroy, damage, conceal, alter, or deal in any way with an Aboriginal site or object, and to take possession of and/or deal with any object under or on an Aboriginal site. The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders Heritage Protection Act 1984 (Cth) requires the Company to protect from injury or desecration significant Aboriginal areas on objects. The Company intends to comply with its obligations under these Acts and as a result, despite the Heritage Agreement, the Company cannot guarantee clearance in respect of its future exploration activities.
Novation of Tay-Munglinup Option (Deed of Novation)
Pursuant to a Deed between Mr Paul Askins, Mr James Stewart and Golden Archer Pty Ltd ("the Vendors") and Minemakers Australia NL ("Minemakers") the Company acquired an option to take up an interest in the Tay-Munglinup Tenements. The purchase price is $500,000 of which the Company will be required to pay $375,000 and Minemakers the balance. A payment of $150,000 will be made on the first anniversary of the listing of Minemakers, namely 10 October 2007, half of which will be paid by Minemakers and half by Jutt. On each subsequent anniversary, namely 10 October of each year after 2007, a payment of $200,000 will be due. Jutt will be required to pay 75% ($150,000) of these subsequent repayments and Minemakers the balance. Half of the total of these payments will be deduced from the purchase price. These payments will
- 8 -
continue until the earlier of the Option being exercised or the full purchase price being repaid. The issue of Company shares to Mr. Askins, Mr. Stewart and Golden Archer Pty Ltd will satisfy any of these payments. The share price will be based on a volume-weighted average in the lead up to completion.
Before the option is exercised the Company is required to meet the minimum expenditure requirements and pay any of the fees or costs associated with the Tay-Munglinup Tenements. Minemakers will make a contribution in respect of 25% of these expenses.
Upon exercise of the option the Vendors will transfer an 80% interest in the Tay-Munglinup Tenements, 60% of which will be transferred to the Company and 20% of which will be transferred to Minemakers. The Company and Minemakers are given a first right of refusal should the Vendors wish to sell their remaining 20% interest in the Tay-Munglinup Tenements. If the Company and Minemakers do not exercise this first right of refusal then the Vendors may sell their remaining 20% to a third party on terms no more favourable.
In consideration of the option the Company agreed to allot Minemakers or its nominee 400,000 ordinary shares and 300,000 options (each to acquire one share in the issued capital of the Company).
The Company is required to pay any stamp duty in respect of the Deed.
3. RISK FACTORS
Specific Risks
The future performance of the Company and the Shares offered under this Prospectus may be influenced by the following specific risks. These specific risks are also outlined at the beginning of this Prospectus.
Exploration
There is no guarantee that exploration activities will identify mineral resources that will be of economic benefit to the Company.
Native title
The Tenements are affected by the native title claims of the Esperance Nyungers (WC96/064) and the Ngadju (WC99/02). The Company cannot guarantee that a native title determination will not impact upon the Tenements. Compensatory obligations may be necessary in settling native title claims or in gaining access to conduct its current activities as native title and Aboriginal cultural heritage issues may affect the Company’s ability to gain access to its Tenements. Furthermore, the Company cannot guarantee that it will enter into access or clearance arrangements in respect of E74/317 and E74/318 within a reasonable period of time or at all.
Legislative changes, Government policy and approvals
Changes in government regulations and policies may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company. For example, any increased rentals under the Mining Act may impact on the Company’s actual financial statements. The Company’s capacity to explore and mine, in particular the Company’ ability to explore and mine any reserves, may be affected by changes in government policy, which are beyond the control of the Company.
Funding Risks
The Company is only raising sufficient funds to carry out the proposed exploration on the Tay-Munglinup Tenements described at the beginning of this Prospectus in the first year of its exploration program. The Company cannot guarantee that it, or Minemakers, will have sufficient funding to meet annual expenditure requirements in relation to the Tay-Munglinup Tenements in the second year of its exploration program. If, based on the results of the helicopter borne survey, the Company exercises the option described above, the Company cannot guarantee that it, or Minemakers, will have the funds required to complete the acquisition of the Tay-Munglinup Tenements as described in this Prospectus.
- 9 -
General Risks
In addition to the above risks, the future performance of the Company and the Shares offered under this Prospectus may be influenced by the following general risks.
Economic climate
Changes in the general economic climate in which the Company operates may adversely affect the exploration activities of the Company. Factors that may contribute to that economic climate include the general level of economic activity, interest rates, inflation and other economic factors, such as the cost of production and general global economic conditions. In particular, the price of commodities and level of activity within the mineral and resources sector together with market fluctuations will also be of particular relevance to the Company.
Unforeseen expenses
While the Company is not aware of any expenses that may need to be incurred that have not been taken into account, if such expenses were subsequently incurred, the anticipated budgets of the Company may be adversely affected.
Operation and development risks
By its nature, the business of exploration, mineral development and production is subject to a variety of risks which are beyond the control of the Company. These risks may adversely impact the Company’s activities and include, but are not limited to, force majeure events such as adverse weather, industrial accidents, technical failures, labour disputes, acts of terrorism, earthquake, fire and explosion. However, the Company anticipates that upon completion of the capital raising and upon commencement of its activities described in this Prospectus the Company will take out such insurance as and when necessary in an endeavour to minimise these risks.
Environmental risks
The Company’s operations and projects are subject to State and Federal laws and regulations regarding environmental hazards. The Company’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment. Whilst the Company intends to conduct its activities in an environmentally responsible manner, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, there can be no guarantee that it will comply as the cost and complexity of compliance may prevent it from doing so.
Reliance on key personnel
In formulating and implementing its exploration programs, the Company relies to a significant extent upon the experience and expertise of key personnel. Although information concerning the Company and the TayMunglinup Tenements has been chronicled, the loss of one or more of these key personnel may adversely affect the Company’s prospects of pursuing its activities.
