The Board of Eclipse Metals Limited ( “ the Company ”) is pleased to provide the following commentary and Appendix 5B.

During the quarter, further preliminary investigations have been carried out over the company ’s granted and applied for exploration licence s in the Northern Territory and Queensland. Currently Eclipse Metals controls over 24,050 km[2] within the Northern Territory, Queensland and New South Wales hosting various types of mineral commodities. These include gold, manganese, iron, uranium, platinum, palladium, copper and bauxite.

Eclipse Metals currently holds over 710 km[2] granted exploration licences in the Northern Territory, targeting a range of commodity such as gold, uranium and iron. Table 1 below lists the granted tenements 3 of which are shown on the map in Figure 1 in relation to the various mineral prospects/mines. The Eclipse (EL24808) Project tenements are shown in Figure 2.

Highlights from review for the Mt Wells, West Bachelor and the Litchfield North

Projects:

Mt Wells: The review during the quarter highlighted the Mt Wells gold-base metal project as hosting a major structural target. The project is located approx. 27 km north-north-west from Pine Creek in the Northern Territory, situated proximal to major gold deposits (Spring Hill Gold Deposit: Indicated Resource 3.6Mt at 2.34g/t Au for 274,000 oz of gold) within the Pine Creek Geosyncline. Based on the interpreted magnetic data, a five kilometre shear zone is running in a NW-SE direction on the western portion of the tenement. This is highly encouraging as it may represent an important feature for controlling the localisation of gold bearing fluids within a structural corridor, indicating a strong exploration target for structurally controlled gold/base metal deposits.

The West Batchelor Iron Project: This is currently a high priority for the company with two iron prospects of interest including the Mt Tolmer and Table Top Iron areas. The review interpreted the Mt Tolmer Iron prospect as a flat-lying body occurring at the unconformity between slate and ferruginous sandstone. The deposit is mainly composed of hematite with some areas as thick as 12 metres and others around nine metres. Two types of material were assayed:

  1. Dense, fine grained hematite showing concretionary structures in some part and

  2. Strongly cellular material generally composed of a mixture of hematite and limonite and usually containing a small admixture of sand grains.

In places, the texture of the cellular material resembles a gossan with minor amounts of secondary copper minerals observed in a few specimens; the cellular type of material is always predominant.

Total Iron % Phosphorus % Copper % Sulphur %
61.8 0.19 0.0058 0.015

56.7 0.15 0.0046

The Table Top Iron Prospect is a deposit of laterite development beneath a plateau formed by flat-lying Upper Proterozoic quartz sandstone (Depot Creek Sandstone). The prospect is situated approx. 13.7 km north-east of the Mount Tolmer Iron Prospect. Magnetic beneficiation of the iron mineralisation appears feasible.

Litchfield North. A brief review of the Litchfield North tenement (EL27853) shows that the Wilson Uranium Prospect is located at the most northern boundary. Historic exploration work has confirmed the prospect occurs over a northerly length of about 1.5 km and a width of about 400m. Anomalous uranium and copper values from drilling occur near the water table, suggesting deposition from circulating groundwater by supergene processes. Through further work conducted by the company several radiometric and magnetic anomalies were identified which remain untested.

The Woolner Project (EL27702), North Moline (EL 25942 and EL25943) and Litchfield South (EL 27851) were identified as having minimal mineral prospectivity and therefore relinquished during the quarter

Eclipse also holds 30 exploration licences applications covering more than 22,267km[2] in the Northern Territory as shown in Table 2 and on the map in Figure 2.

The review over the West Arnhem Project has identified several highly prospective areas, including the Devil ’s Elbow uranium-gold-palladium prospect located within ELA27584. The tenement area has yielded historically high grade surface uranium, gold, platinum and palladium assays related to fractures within altered amygdaloidal basalt of the Nungbalgarri Volcanics. The prospect is located within the world class Alligator Rivers Uranium Field which hosts Ranger, Nabarlek and Jabiluka Uranium Mines. Large uranium deposits in the Alligator Rivers Uranium Field account for 96% of past production and 95% of known resources in the Northern Territory.

The Tanami 4 and 5 Gold Projects review indicated that much of the project areas are underlain by the Paleoproterozoic Killi Killi sediments which hosts the gold mineralisation at the Buccaneer, Old Pirate, Golden Hind and Coyote Mine (Coyote Mine: 30.25Mt tonnes grading 3.3g/t Au for 3,224,000oz of Au) being explored by ABU Resources. The Tanami-Arunta region is a world-class gold province, with several million ounce plus deposits (Callie, Granites, Tanami), and is considered to be one of the most under-explored major gold terrains in Australia. Proximal gold deposits such as Buccaneer Gold Deposit are located approximately 12 km NNE from ELA25999 (Resource: 15.3Mt @ 2.54g/t Au. Total: 1,254,500oz Au), Old Pirate Gold Deposit is 8.8 km NE from ELA25999 has a (total uncut mineral resource estimate of 1.88Mt @ 11.96g/t Au for 723,800oz Au) and Golden Hind Deposit all indicating that the Tanami 4 and 5 project areas are prospective to host gold mineralisation.

Review of the Yuendi copper-uranium project (ELA26487) outlined abundant radiometric/magnetic and structural targets within the tenement. The Yuendi project hosts the entire Rock Hill Copper Field which contains 10 copper prospects (which historically and currently remain relatively unexplored). Copper minerals occur at several localities along a 5 km strike. The lodes at the surface consist mainly of malachite and quartz with lesser amounts of azurite and chrysocolla. Tenorite and chalcocite are reported and one historical drill hole intersected about 1 metre of massive chalcopyrite at a depth of 37 metres. Fruzzetti recorded an average grade for chip and channel samples of 10% copper. The copper mineralisation from these veins occurs from surface to a maximum depth of 30 metres with an average length of 100 metres.

Walla Mines Pty Ltd (subsidiary of Eclipse Metals) holds eight granted exploration tenements licences covering more than 1,072 km2 in the Northern Territory, Queensland and New South Wales. The Projects are in the early stages of exploration with strong potential for delineation of further manganese-gold-iron mineralisation. Details of the granted exploration licences are included in Table 3, with locations illustrated in Figure 3.

The geological review over the Mary Valley Manganese Project (located approximately 14 km SW of Gympie Township in Queensland) showed historical manganese production over several prospects. The largest mine within the tenement area was at Amamoor No.1 Manganese Deposit which produced 19,630t @ 51% Mn. A total of 31,477 tonnes of ore was mined from the three Exploration Permit Mineral areas with the manganese grade ranging from 42% to 51% Mn. The dimensions of all the deposit are not known to date. Historical assays have also indicated that the Mn, Fe, Si and P levels are all within the direct shipping ore parameters which further confirm the economic potential of standalone mining operations over the Mary Valley Manganese Project. The project covers 198 square kilometres of favorable lithology within the three Exploration Licence (EPM) areas. Nearest shipping port from the project is at Brisbane approximately 165 rail kilometres.

The Yellow Jack Gold Project has a JORC Compliant Resource down to 50 metres vertical depth; INFERRED JORC RESOURCE: 855,000t @ 1.41 g/t Au (38,760 contained ounces of gold). Historical metallurgical studies have indicated that bottle roll cyanidation recoveries over oxide and transitional zone material gave cyanide recoveries averaging 88%.

The Moss Vale Bauxite Project is the subject of an option in favour of ABX Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of ASX listed Australian Bauxite Limited, whereby ABX2 Pty Ltd is required to meet expenditure commitments on the tenement and then has an option to purchase the tenement from Walla Mines Pty Ltd.

Commenting on these positive results, Carl Popal Executive Director stated, “We are delighted to have received such positive results, as it clearly demonstrates the mineral prospectivity currently held within Eclipse Metals tenement portfolio ”. “We are still focusing in developing an exploration strategy over the current exploration licences with a view to commence on ground exploration activities in the short term ”.
