Figure 1. Tenement Locations
Nardoo Well
Nardoo Well is a single granted exploration licence (E09/2114) located about 250km east of Carnarvon in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia and covers an area of 131km2. Access is gained via the sealed Carnarvon-Mullewa road to the east of Gascoyne Junction and then 90 km north on local gravel roads. The tenement area contains a number of recorded tungsten and base metal occurrences and is situated on the Mount Phillip, Eudamullah and Yinnietharra pastoral leases.
Geology
The northeast half of the project area is dominated by fine grained metasediments of the Leake Springs and Pooranoo Metamorphics (Figure 2). The Leake Spring Metamorphics (previously the 'Morrissey Metamorphic Suite') is a package of siliciclastic metasedimentary rocks, with some intercalated calcsilicate rock and amphibolite, which outcrops across the northern two-thirds of the Gascoyne Province.
To the southwest of these metasediment the sequence is intruded by the Thirty Three Supersuite, a foliated, leucocratic, biotite-muscovite (-tourmaline) monzogranite and granodiorite, as well as a
CORIZON LIMITED
belt of muscovite-tourmaline and rare element bearing pegmatite along the northern edge of the Mutherbukin Zone.
There are a number of pegmatites and quartz veins that are probably derived from granites belonging to the Thirty Three Supersuite. Some of these dykes contain abundant concentrations of rare earth elements (e.g. Bi, Be, Nb-Ta) and have been the subject of small-scale mining. The tantalum-niobium zoned pegmatites are present within a 65 kilometre by 15 kilometre west northwest-trending zone which passes through the southern part of the project area, with dykes up to 20 metres wide to shallowly dipping sheets reaching 200 m in thickness. The dykes and sheets are typically zoned, and contain cores of massive quartz.

Figure 2. Nardoo Well tenement E09/2114, geology, recorded tungsten occurrences and historical drilling
There are 23 recorded Tungsten occurrences within E09/2114, with a particular focus of occurrences at Nardoo Well over 6 kilometres of strike and Nardoo South over 3 kilometres of strike. Two styles of mineralisation have been identified; skarn and amphibolite hosted.
Skarns are located in two stratigraphic horizons within a partly calcareous micaceous quartzite, are fairly continuous over a length of several hundred metres, with pods of higher grade mineralisation. Mineralisation associated with amphibolites tends to occur as lower grade disseminations, in patches and elongated pods. These amphibolites are semi-continuous at several stratigraphic levels within the staurolite schist unit.
Previous Work
The Nardoo Well area, which had previously been partially explored by Whim Creek Consolidated (WCC) from 1980 to 1982, contains two styles of tungsten deposits. The main scheelite mineralisation occurs as high grade but patchy garnet-epidote vesuvianite skarns lenses within calcareous
CORIZON LIMITED
quartzites (channel samples up to 3m @ 1.64% WO₃) and disseminated within para-amphibolite over a strike length of 5-6km. A total of 3,734m in 192 vacuum holes were completed by WCC over the Quartzite, Main and Northern Skarns, with most drilling being relatively shallow between 15-35m. Drilling experienced poor sample recovery and results did not repeat the very encouraging surface observations.
In 1982 Westralian Sands Ltd looked briefly at the calc-silicate hosted tungsten potential of the ground, covering the western margin of E09/2114. Using mapping, and night (UV) lamping, channel and rock ship sampling they identified areas of tungsten that returned values of 0.35% to 7.72% WO₃ that were not followed-up.
From 1992 to 2003, Rare Resources NL investigated the elluvial and alluvial potential of the area for tantalite mineralisation. This work was on a very small scale, close to Beryl Hill and Bismuth Hill. Two Honours projects undertaken on Rare Resources' prospect; one a structural study and the other a mineralogical study (the latter is particularly useful), are contained within the 1992 annual report.
Fieldwork by Mincor began in April 2006 and finished in December 2006. A staged program of gridding, mapping, rock chip and channel sampling, petrography, stream sediment sampling and reverse circulation drilling was conducted. The program consisted of 51 holes for a total of 1,333 metres. A summary of the drilling activities can be found in the Appendix. With the exception of three holes drilled into a Magnetite skarn, all holes penetrated staurolite-biotite-garnet schist on the footwall side of the host quartzite. Results from Mincor's 2007 exploration report (A75498) show results of 1m @ 5485 ppm WO₃ and 1m @ 1.12% WO₃ from holes NRC 17 and 34, which were drilled adjacent to and along strike from the Main Skarn "Bonanza" pod respectively. Eighteen samples from twenty-two holes returned values greater than 100 ppm, with six holes returning tungsten values greater than 500ppm. No hole had more than one value >500 ppm W. The drilling failed to establish the strike or depth continuity of the high-grade zones seen and sampled on surface in the principal skarn.
Arrow Minerals Limited (ASX: AMD) formerly Segue Resources Limited (ASX: SEG) owns the Malinda Lithium Project adjacent to the Nardoo Well Project. In 2017 AMD completed a detailed soil sampling, rock chipping and stream sediment sampling program at their Tomahawk, T-Bone, Blade and Flank prospects, located 20km to the east of Nardoo Well. Follow up RC drilling identified a series of thick, moderately dipping pegmatites with elevated lithium and tantalum.
Mapping and sampling completed by RWG during 2016 identified a zone of pegmatite over a strike length of 2km. This pegmatite is open along strike to the north east and contains anomalous LiO₂ of up to 320ppm. Significant tungsten mineralisation of 3.4% WO₃ in a rock chip sample was also achieved in an area previously explored for tungsten.
Exploration Plan
Given the success of Arrow Minerals Limited's drilling programs on adjacent tenements, as well as the promising results from RWG's initial soil and rock chip sampling, the project area is deemed highly prospective for pegmatite hosted Lithium/Niobium/Tantalum mineralization within the 8.5km of strike of the Thirty-Three Supersuite contained within the tenement. Further soil and rock chip sampling should be undertaken around the identified highs from the RWG's first, broad spaced soil sampling program, in order to better define the anomalies and aid in the targeting of a reverse circulation drilling program.
Twin Hills
Twin Hills consists of a granted exploration licence (E29/950) located about 30km north east of Menzies and 150km north of Kalgoorlie in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia. The tenement covers an area of approximately 30km² and extends over about 10km of strike of the greenstone sequence that hosts the excised historical Twin Hills gold mine. The tenement covers the north and south extension of the high-grade Twin Hills gold mine.
CORIZON LIMITED
Geology
The tenement covers the northern extremity of the Menzies Greenstone Belt, which in the area is a 1km wide sequence of greenstone rocks between two granite plutons at the eastern boundary of the Menzies Terrane. The sequence consists of a lower ultramafic unit, overlain by basalts and topped by cherts and iron formations. The northern half of the tenement is largely covered by recent sediments and alluvium. Gold mineralisation is associated with banded brittle-ductile shear zones conformable with the north-south trend of the region and contains quartz carbonate veining. The mineralisation is characterised by biotite, sericite, fuchsite, pyrite and pervasive silicification.

Previous Exploration
The historical gold workings in excised M29/21 were discovered in 1928 and worked sporadically until 1986. The area has been subjected to a substantial amount of exploration activity during the period 1986 to 2005, with the majority of this activity on excised M29/21 and to a lesser extent excised
CORIZON LIMITED
M29/419. The work completed has included soil sampling, geological mapping, drilling, resource calculations and underground mining and development (on M29/21).
Golden Deeps NL completed a program of RAB drilling in 1998 on the portion of E29/950 directly adjoining the northern boundary of excised of M29/21. This program consisted of 71 RAB holes for 1.486m (for an average depth of 21m) and was designed to test a moderate tenor Au-in-soil anomaly trending to the north from M29/21. Details of the program and hole collars can be found in the Appendix in Table 2 taken from Gold Deeps 1998 Annual Technical Report A57635. The drilling returned two anomalous intersections; 3m @ 0.10g/t from 20m to EOH in TRAB-16 and 3m @ 0.11g/t from 24m to EOH on TRAB-28. No follow up drilling has been completed to test the down dip or along strike extension of these zones. The RAB drilling undertaken upon E29/950 despite being very shallow and broadly spaced did yield a significant intercept and two anomalous intercepts. With TRAB 044 yielding 8m @ 1.74 g/t from 4m.

Figure 4. Twin Hills Aerial Magnetic
CORIZON LIMITED
The historical soil sampling in the area also identified a 700m long and up to 400m wide +20ppb Au-in-soil geochemical anomaly immediately south of M29/21. This anomaly is stronger than that seen in the vicinity of the mine workings within M29/21 and has not been drill tested.
Exploration undertaken by RWG has included compiling all previous exploration results, field investigations and acquisition and processing of existing aerial magnetic data. All previous drilling and soil sampling results have been compiled and where appropriate coordinates converted to MGA94. An index of all available WAMEX reports has also been compiled summarising the various activities. Southern Geoscience Consultants were engaged to acquire and re-process public domain aerial magnetic data, with a series of magnetic and radiometric images produced.
Exploration Plan
Following evaluation of all past exploration activity on the tenement area Corizon intends to complete a detailed magnetic survey and modelling of the controls on mineralisation at the Twin Hills gold mine, based on publicly available data, to design a program of follow up exploration. The large +20ppb gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly identified immediately south of the historical mine workings within M29/21 is a priority for follow up exploration.
The reprocessed aerial magnetics clearly define the prospective greenstone belt and shows structures and demagnetized zones that may indicate alteration in a number of areas; including that of the large +20ppb gold-in-soil anomaly.
Targets generated from the detailed magnetic survey are expected to be tested with either shallow geochemical sampling in the northern portion of the tenement, utilising auger and/or shallow RAB drilling, or RAB/RC drilling of structural targets identified.
Cookes Creek
The Cookes Creek area is made up of two granted exploration licenses (E46/1095 and E46/1163) about 85km south east of Marble Bar in the East Pilbara of Western Australia that cover an area of 51km2. The tenement area contains a number of recorded tungsten, molybdenum and base metal occurrences and adjoins Tungsten Mining NL's (ASX: TGN) Big Hill Project which contains a JORC 2012 Mineral Resource of 11.5Mt at 0.15% WO₃ (Indicated Resource of 6.2Mt at 0.16% WO₃ and Inferred Resource of 5.3MT at 0.13% WO₃) (refer to TGN ASX announcement Big Hill Mineral Resource Update 22nd June 2016).
Geology
The Cookes Creek project area (Figure 1) is located within the Pilbara Craton, on the margin of the East Pilbara Terrane and Soanesville Basin. The Pilbara Craton has an exposed area of over 180,000 km2 and comprises Archean granite-greenstone successions intruded by granitoids complexes (northern Pilbara Craton), in addition to the unconformably overlying Neoarchaean to Paleoproterozoic volcanic and sedimentary units of the Hamersley Basin, which dominate the southern Pilbara Craton and form outliers in the northern Pilbara Craton.
The Cookes Creek project area is a well-preserved and well-exposed granite-greenstone belt, including granites and enveloping volcano-sedimentary rocks. It is located in the southeastern part of the East Pilbara Terrane, and within the northern part of the Kurrana Terrane. The area forms a part of the McPhee Dome (structurally) and comprises dominantly volcanic rocks of the Warrawoona volcanic-sedimentary Group.

Figure 5. Historic activity over E46/1095 and E46/1163 and TGN's Big Hill deposit to the south of the E46/1095 and west of E46/1163
The project area, belongs mainly to the Warrowoona Group (3525 to 3426 Ma) and to some extent to the Kelly Group (3420 to 3310 Ma). The Warrowoona Group is composed of mafic and ultramafic rocks, with lesser felsic volcanic rocks. The group is characterised by cycles of extrusions of (ultra)mafic to felsic rocks, which may have formed in an oceanic plateau. In the project area, the upper part of the Warrowoona Group is exposed and is characterised by the Apex Formation (mafic to ultramafic rocks) and Panorama Formation (felsic to intermediate rocks). The Cookes Creek group of workings is the largest historic producer of tungsten ore in the Pilbara. Most of the production occurred during the 1950's, and 1960's. Mining has focused on readily identifiable quartz – wolframite – scheelite veins and eluvial material.

Exploration history
E46/1095 contains 11 known historical tungsten occurrences/ mine working plus tungsten geochemical anomalies that are partially tested by modern exploration (see Figure). Trenching by
CORIZON LIMITED
Kalgoorlie Southern Gold Mines NL (KSGM) at Area A intersected up to 11m at 0.13% WO₃ and 5 metres at 0.78% WO₃ (WAMEX reports A16234, A16233, A16232, A14512, A14497, A12938). Table 6 in the Appendix shows all mineralised intervals identified in the Area A and B trenches. Results were followed up by 5 angled NQ holes for 464.6m. Better results include 2.25 metres @ 3.62% WO₃ from 18.05 – 20.3 metres in 83DDH2; 1.37 metres @ 0.77% WO₃ from 35.73 – 37.1 metres in 83DDH3⁸. Details of the drill program can be found in the Appendix in Table 4.
During 1983, KSGM conducted stream sediment sampling across the Cookes Creek project area and identified several stream sediment anomalies. A stream sediment anomaly on EL46/1163 is similar in size to that associated with the Big Hill deposit and the source to this anomaly has not been adequately explained. Trenching of the eastern strike extension to Big Hill (to the south of EL46/1163) intersected up to 6m at 0.14% WO₃, 10m at 0.09% WO₃ and 5m at 0.19% WO₃. These trenches are located within 160m of the EL46/1163 and mineralisation is open to the northeast onto EL46/1163. Potential exists to extend the Big Hill deposit onto ELA46/1163.
TGN's Big Hill Project immediately to the south of the project area contains a JORC 2012 Mineral Resource Estimate of 11.5Mt at 0.15% WO₃ (Indicated Resource of 6.2Mt at 0.16% WO₃ and Inferred Resource of 5.3MT at 0.13% WO₃) (refer to TGN ASX announcement Big Hill Mineral Resource Update 22nd June 2016). Preliminary metallurgical test work has produced high quality tungsten concentrates with acceptable scheelite recoveries with a potentially low-cost processing route.
Exploration Plan
Following detailed evaluation of all past exploration activity on the tenements to the south of the project area Corizon intends to initiate exploration by completing detailed surface mapping of historical workings to understand the structural setting of the historical workings and potential for further mineralisation along strike. This is likely to be carried out in conjunction with a broader focused geochemical soil sampling program to help identify any additional areas of potential economic mineralisation over the tenement area.
Risks
Investors should be aware that the performance of the Company may be affected and the value of its Shares may rise or fall over any given period. Some of the factors which investors should consider before they make a decision whether or not to take up their entitlement include, but are not limited to, the risks as below.
(i) Limited Operating History
The Company has a limited operating history in undertaking activities of a scale identified in this release. As an early stage business, the Company also has a limited financial history which may make it difficult for investors to assess its past performance. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve profitability in the future.
(ii) Exploration success
The tenements to be acquired have been subject to limited exploration and presently does not have any JORC Code compliant mineral resource estimates.
Mineral exploration and development are high-risk undertakings, and there is no assurance that exploration of the Tenements will result in the discovery of an economic resource deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.
The future exploration activities of the Company may be affected by a range of factors including geological conditions, limitations on activities due to permitting requirements, availability of appropriate exploration equipment, exploration costs, seasonal weather patterns, unanticipated operational and technical difficulties, industrial and environmental accidents and many other factors beyond the control of the Company.
CORIZON LIMITED
(iii) Resource estimates
There is not presently a JORC Code compliant resource in relation to the Tenements.
In the event a resource is delineated on the Tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired by the Company in the future, this would be an estimate only. An estimate is an expression of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates that were valid when originally calculated may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. In addition, by their very nature, resource estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may prove to be inaccurate. As further information becomes available through additional fieldwork and analysis, the estimates are likely to change. This may result in alterations to development and mining plans that may, in turn, adversely affect the Company's operations.
(iv) Operations
The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including failure to locate or identify mineral deposits, failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining, difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment, mechanical failure or plant breakdown, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.
No assurances can be given that the Company will achieve commercial viability through the successful exploration and/or mining of the Tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired by the Company in the future. Until the Company is able to realise value from its projects, it is likely to incur ongoing operating losses.
(v) Title
Interests in tenements in Australia are governed by the respective State legislation and are evidenced by the granting of licences or leases. Each licence or lease is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose title to or its interest in the Tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired by the Company in the future, if such conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet expenditure commitments.
(vi) Native title and Aboriginal heritage
In relation to the Tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired by the Company in the future, there may be areas over which legitimate common law native title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If native title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to those tenements (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected.
In addition, there may be areas or objects of Aboriginal heritage located on the Tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired by the Company in the future. The Company must ensure that it does not breach the Commonwealth and applicable State legislation relating to Aboriginal heritage. To ensure that it does not contravene such legislation, it would be prudent for the Company (and it would accord with industry practice and Aboriginal expectations) to conduct heritage surveys to determine if any Aboriginal heritage sites or objects exist within the area of the Tenements prior to commencing any activities. Any interference with these sites or objects must be in strict conformity with the provisions of the relevant legislation.
CORIZON LIMITED
If Aboriginal heritage sites or objects do exist, the Company may need to enter into agreements with the traditional owners of the sites. The ability of the Company to implement its work programme may be adversely affected in both time and cost.
The Directors will closely monitor the potential effect of native title claims and Aboriginal heritage involving the Tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired by the Company in the future.
(vii) Funding
At the date of this release, the Company has no income producing assets and will generate losses for the foreseeable future. Until it is able to develop a project and generate appropriate cash flow, it is dependent upon being able to obtain future equity debt funding to support long term exploration, after the expenditure of the net proceeds raised under the entitlement offer.
Neither the Company nor any of the Directors or any other party can provide any guarantee or assurance that if further funding is required, such funding can be raised on terms favourable to the Company.
Any additional equity funding may dilute existing Shareholders.
Also, no guarantee or assurance can be given as to when a project can be developed to the stage where it will generate cash flow. As such, a project would be dependent on many factors, for example exploration success, subsequent mine development, commissioning and operational performance.
(viii) Acquisition risk
The Company's proposed objectives involve acquiring and developing resource projects at various stages of development. The Directors of the Company will use their expertise and experience in the resources sector to assess the value and merit of potential projects that are likely to provide returns for Shareholders. However, there can be no guarantee that any new project may result in any return for the Company and its Shareholders.

NOTE
The proforma balance sheet as at 31 December 2017 shown above assume that the Acquisition has been completed and the Company has completed either the minimum capital raising of $3,150,000 (less capital raising costs) or the maximum capital raising of $3,650,000 (less capital raising costs). The accounts have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies normally adopted by the Company and reflect the changes to its financial position. The proforma adjustments include assets acquired assumed as reflected in Corizon Limited balance sheet as at 31 December 2017.
The directors have considered the application of AASB 3 Business Combinations to the transaction and the associated impact this has on the presentation and measurement of this transaction. RWG does not have any bank accounts or conduct any operations other than holding the tenements to be acquired. Expenditure incurred in order to maintain the tenement assets to date has been absorbed by the existing parent company. The existing parent company will write-off all intercompany loans which relate directly to expenditure incurred in respect to the RWG tenements. As part of the acquisition, the RWG confirms that there are no liabilities or assets, besides the tenements, to be assumed by Corizon as part of the acquisition. For accounting purposes, pursuant to AASB 3 Business Combinations, this transaction constitutes an acquisition with the result that Corizon Limited is identified as the acquirer of RWG (the "acquiree"). From date of acquisition, the financial statements reflect the results of the operations of the Company and RWG subsequent to the acquisition.

Further details of the timetable for the Capital Raising, including the record date for the entitlement issue, will be announced once determined.
Re-compliance with ASX Listing Rules Chapters 1 and 2
Since the Acquisition will result in a significant change to the nature and scale of the Company's activities, the Acquisition will require the Company's shareholders' approval under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 and will also require the Company to re-comply with Chapters 1 and 2 of the Listing Rules in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.1.3.
Shareholder approvals
A notice of meeting seeking shareholder approval for the resolutions required to give effect to the Acquisition will be sent to the Company's shareholders in due course. Those approvals will include:
CORIZON LIMITED
(a) the change in nature and scale of the Company's activities;
(b) the Consolidation; and
(c) the issue of Shares in connection with the Acquisition.
The Vendor has an interest in more than 10% of the Company's shares. Therefore, shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.1 is required for the Acquisition. This requires the inclusion of an independent expert's report with the notice of meeting.
The Company's securities are currently suspended from trading on ASX and it is anticipated that the Company's securities will remain suspended until completion of the Capital Raising, the Acquisition, re-compliance by the company with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules and compliance with any further conditions ASX imposes on such reinstatement.
ASX waivers and approvals and required
The Company intends to seek the following waiver from ASX:
(a) ASX Listing Rule 2.1 (Condition 2) to allow the Company to issue Shares with an issue price below $0.20 in connection with the Acquisition and Capital Raising.
Regulatory requirements generally
The Company notes that:
(a) the Acquisition requires shareholder approval under the Listing Rules and therefore may not proceed if that approval is not forthcoming;
(b) the Company is required to re-comply with ASX's requirements for admission and quotation and therefore the Acquisition may not proceed if those requirements are not met;
(c) ASX has an absolute discretion in deciding whether or not to re-admit the Company to the Official List and to quote its securities and therefore the Acquisition may not proceed if ASX exercises that discretion; and
(d) investors should take account of these uncertainties in deciding whether or not to buy or sell the Company's securities.
Furthermore, the Company:
(a) notes that ASX takes no responsibility for the contents of this announcement; and
(b) confirms that it is in compliance with its continuous disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rule 3.1.
The Company also confirms it has undertaken appropriate enquiries into the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses and prospectus of RWG for the board to be satisfied that the transaction is in the interests of the Company and shareholders.

2.1 Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Sampling techniques | • Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. | |
| • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. | ||
| • Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. | ||
| • In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. | • Twin hills - Historical exploration focused on the excised Twin Hills Gold Mine. | |
| • Cookes Creek Tungsten Project- Historical exploration is limited to 5 diamond drill holes which were completed by Bighill Resources in 2009. Core was cut in half in one metre intervals and analysed for Tungsten by XRF using Genalysis and ALS Chemex in Perth. | ||
| • Nardoo Well - A total of 3,734m in 192 vacuum holes were completed by WCC over the Quartzite, Main and Northern Skarns, with most drilling being relatively shallow between 15-35m. Mincor began in April 2006 and finished in December 2006 a staged program of gridding, mapping, rock chip and channel sampling, petrography, stream sediment sampling and reverse circulation drilling was conducted. Drill methodology has not been located. | ||
| • Data from all historical work is to be collated in to a database for detailed review. | ||
| Drilling techniques | • Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc). | • Historical drilling techniques include RAB, Vacuum, RC and DDH drilling. |
| Drill sample recovery | • Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. | |
| • Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. | ||
| • Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to | • No data with regard to sample recovery has been located |

| Drill hole Information | • A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: | • All drilling mentioned in the announcement is historical and is provide in the Appendix. No new drilling was undertaken as part of this proposed acquisition. |
CORIZON LIMITED
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| o easting and northing of the drill hole collar | ||
| o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar | ||
| o dip and azimuth of the hole | ||
| o down hole length and interception depth | ||
| o hole length. | ||
| • If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. | ||
| Data aggregation methods | • In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. | |
| • Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. | ||
| • The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. | • No data aggregation was undertaken | |
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths | • These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. | |
| • If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. | ||
| • If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’). | • Mineralisation at the projects is still yet to be defined and will require further drilling to determine true widths | |
| Diagrams | • Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. | • Not required |
| Balanced reporting | • Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results. | • No new Exploration Results have been reported. |
| • Historical data will be collated into a database for detailed review. | ||
| • Limited exploration has been conducted on the tenements |
