ReserveNotes
Ore Reserves at Whim Creek, Mons Cupri, Salt Creek and Liberty-Indee were estimated using a Net Smelter Return calculation on a cost, insurance and freight (CIF) basis and incorporating variable TC/RC terms and metal prices of: copper US$7715/t, zinc US$2205/t; lead US$2161/t; silver US$19.8/oz; and, gold US$1200/oz. The applied exchange rate is A$1.0=US$0.89. Reserve cut-off grades are: Mons Cupri open pit 0.62% Cu Eq; Whim Creek open pit 0.65% Cu Eq; Salt Creek open pit 0.72% Cu Eq; Evelyn open pit 0.76% Cu Eq; Salt Creek underground 1.96% Cu Eq; and Evelyn underground 1.4% Cu Eq.
A pre-feasibility level underground mine design for the Panorama deposit was completed by SN Consulting in December 2009. The design was developed from detailed geological information provided by CBH geologists and geotechnical input from Coffey Mining. A production rate of 600,000 tpa was selected as optimal for the low tonnage high grade options based on achievable extractions rates and expected mine life balanced against capital cost of infrastructure. This is greater than the proposed production rate of 500,000tpa in the Venturex combined operations scenario. The mining design incorporates a combination of bottom-up bench stoping in the narrow (less than 20m wide) sections of the ore body with long hole open stoping for the wider central zones. The bench stoping areas utilise a 25m level interval whereas the open stopes have a 40m interval (with a 20m sub-level drill drive). As the orebody is made up of a number of discrete ore zones, several stopes can be mined on each level concurrently. Production from stoping would be dependent on the advance of the decline. Stope shapes were designed based on the 10% Zinc equivalent ore body. The orebody solid was sectioned at 5m levels for use in stope design. Stope outlines were created by digitising practical mining shapes based on the ore body level plans and creating solid models. Each resulting solid was checked with the 5m ore body level plans to check continuity between levels and in some cases modified with intermediate outlines where rapid change in ore body shape were evident. Where the practical stope shape takes in waste or low grade material this is included in the reserve as planned dilution. Mining dilution has been estimated as 5% at a grade of 4.8%Zn and 1.5%Cu. The dilution grade has been calculated by modeling the potential over break then extracting the tonnes and grade from the block model. A stoping recovery factor of 95% was applied to the bench stoping method. The ore loss is attributable to the ability to handle oversize rocks, stope bogging efficiency and blasting the ore onto unconsolidated rock fill.

Risk Factors Expanded
----- End of picture text -----
General
There are various risks associated with investing in Venturex, as with any stock market investment and, specifically, because of the nature of Venturex’s exploration business and the present stage of development of the Company's operations. Potential investors should consider whether the securities offered are a suitable investment having regard to their own personal investment objectives and financial circumstances and the risk factors set out below. Many of those risk factors are outside the control of the Directors. While some common risk factors are set out below, it is not possible to produce an exhaustive list. The Directors recommend that potential investors consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for securities pursuant to this Offer.
It is important to recognise that share prices might fall or rise and shareholders may or may not be entitled to receive dividends. Factors affecting the operating and financial performance of Venturex and the market price of Venturex securities include domestic and international economic conditions and outlook, changes in government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies, changes in interest rates and inflation rates, the announcement of new technologies and variations in general market conditions and/or market conditions which are specific to a particular industry. In addition, share prices of many companies are affected by factors which might be unrelated to the operating performance of the relevant company. Such factors might adversely affect the market price of Venturex securities.
Adverse changes to Government policy and taxation
Changes in relevant taxation laws, interest rates, other legal, legislative and administrative regimes, and government policies, may have an adverse effect on the assets, operations and ultimately the financial performance of Venturex. These factors may ultimately affect the financial performance of Venturex and the market price of Venturex securities. Any future increases in federal or state taxes, duties or royalties may not be able to be passed on in full to customers or may result in Venturex’s pricing becoming uncompetitive in the international market.
In addition, mining is an industry that has become subject to increasing environmental responsibility and liability. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which will require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There is no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect the Company's operations. The disposal of mining and process waste and mine water discharge are under constant legislative scrutiny and regulation.
Industry and commodity cycles
The demand for, and price of, metals is highly dependent on a variety of factors, including international supply and demand, actions taken by governments, and global economic and political developments. Adverse changes in market sentiment or conditions can and will impact Venturex’s ability to manage operating costs and have sales meet installed production capacity. These impacts could lead to a reduction in earnings and the carrying value of assets that are outside of Venturex’s control.
Exploration and development projects
Venturex’s projects are still at an exploration or development stage. Exploration and mine development generally involves a high degree of risk and is subject to hazards and risks including unusual and unexpected geological formations, seismic activity, rock bursts, cave-ins, flooding and other conditions involved in the drilling and removal of material, any of which could result in damage to, or destruction of, any facilities, damage to life or property, environmental damage and possible legal liability.
Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve Estimates
The information provided in this presentation in relation to Venturex's projects is the current estimate of resources and reserves, capital and operating costs, as determined from geological data obtained from drill holes and other exploration techniques and feasibility studies conducted to date. Resource estimates are stated to the JORC Code and are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. These estimates were appropriate when made, but may change significantly when new information becomes available. For example, further exploration may result in changes to the estimated size and quality of reserves and the estimated costs of recoveries from the exploration projects, affecting the viability of those projects. Development projects, such as Mons Cupri, Sulphur Springs and Whim Creek, may take longer and/or cost more to develop than planned and expected production rates may not be achieved.

Risk Factors Expanded
----- End of picture text -----
Productions Risks
Venturex Resources is currently not in production. Actual future production may vary from the targets and projections for a variety of reasons, including adjustments to Minerals Resources and Ore Reserves, technical restrictions on planned rates of mining, changes to the planned scale of production, availability of skilled labour, availability of machinery and mining supplies, delays in statutory approvals (including environmental licences), land access restrictions and adverse weather conditions. Although extensive metallurgical test work has been conducted on the Mineral Resources included in development concepts, actual metallurgical recoveries and concentrate specifications may vary from projections; particularly during operational commissioning.
Infrastructure and Transport
Venturex’s ability to achieve production targets, receive goods and services and export its concentrate products may be restricted by access to power networks, roads, rail and ports.
Impact of inflation on costs
Higher than expected inflation rates generally, or specific to the mining industry in particular, could be expected to increase operating and development costs and potentially reduce the value of future project developments.
Exchange rate risks and hedging
Venturex will sell the majority of its product overseas and such sales are priced in USD. Accordingly fluctuations in the AUD relative to the USD may materially affect the cash flow and earnings which Venturex will realise from its operations in AUD terms.
Land and resource tenure
Venturex’s land and resource tenure may be disputed resulting in disruption and/or impediment in the operation or development of a resource. Any new mine development or expansion of existing operations will require landholder, native title and cultural heritage issues to be addressed, which can have significant timing and cost implications.
General operational risks
Venturex’s operations may encounter difficulties that may impact on the amount of production at its mines, delay deliveries or increase the cost of mining for a varying length of time. Such difficulties include weather and natural disasters, availability of personnel with appropriate skills, unexpected maintenance or technical problems and failure of key equipment.
Safety legislation
Current and future mines are subject to a range of safety legislation which may change in a manner that may include requirements in addition to those now in effect, and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their directors and employees.
Claims, liability and litigation
The risk of litigation is a general risk of Venturex’s business. Venturex may incur costs in making payments to settle any such claims which may not be adequately covered by insurance or at all. Such payment may have an adverse impact on Venturex’s profitability and/or financial position.
Changes in accounting policies
Changes in accounting policies may have an adverse impact on Venturex.
Industrial action
Venturex is subject to the risk of industrial action and work stoppages by employees and contractors who provide services which are necessary for the continued operation of the businesses of Venturex.
Refinancing risks
To the extent that Venturex has any material debt in the future, its ability to service that debt from time to time will depend on its future performance and cashflows, which will be affected by many factors, some of which are beyond Venturex’s control.
If Venturex is unable to refinance existing facilities or secure new facilities on acceptable terms, this funding may need to be provided through cashflows of the business or from shareholder equity. Any inability of Venturex to refinance its existing finance facilities could have a material adverse effect on Venturex.
