Disclaimer
This presentation contains forward looking statements that are subject to risk factors associated with the exploration and mining industry.
It is believed that the expectations reflected in these statements are reasonable, but they may be effected by a variety of variables which could cause actual results or trends to differ materially.
Competent person
The information in this PRESENTATION that relates to Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves is based on information compiled by Mr K Lines who is a member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Lines is an employee of ERO Mining Limited. He has more than five years of relevant experience in the style of mineralisation and types of deposit under consideration and consents to inclusion of the information in this report in the form and context in which it appears. He qualifies as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”.
exploration targets
Exploration Targets are reported according to Clause 18 of the JORC Code. This means that the potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature and that considerable further exploration, is necessary before any Identified Mineral Resource can be reported. It is uncertain if further exploration will lead to a larger, smaller or any Mineral Resource.

-
Targeting lithium in saline brines within the Lake Frome basin.
-
Exploration initiated in mid2011 with single sonic drill hole, WT2, on lake margin.
-
Analytical results indicate drilling encountered elevated levels of lithium but lower than earlier work.
-
More drilling is warranted when the Company is in a stronger capital position.

- As previously announced ERO is selling the Georgetown Alluvial Gold Operations.
• Decision followed disappointing operating results and flood damage associated with severe cyclone activity.
- Sale process is now well advanced with the preferred buyer having paid a non-refundable deposit and undertaking the necessary duediligence.
• The Company is hopeful that the sale can be finalised by the end of calendar 2011, with any surplus funds then applied to exploration.

-
Billa Kalina JV – A positive result from the ground gravity survey will support re-capitalisation of ERO and justify a deep drilling program at this exciting project.
-
Padthaway JV – Continuation of the exploration programs initiated in 2011 by the mineral sands major, Iluka Resources Limited.
-
Development of the Tanami exploration portfolio with on-ground exploration at Talbot North and Suplejack. Potential to JV.
-
Sale of the Georgetown Alluvial Gold Operations allowing undivided corporate focus on the exploration portfolio.
-
Re-commencement of the lithium exploration initiative at Wertaloona (subject to funding).
