AUSTRALASIA GOLD LIMITED ARN 93 104 757 904 EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared to assist shareholders in consideration of resolutions proposed for the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company to be held on 24 July 2007 at 64 Greenhill Road WAYVILLE, SA commencing at 11.00am.

It should be read in conjunction with the Notice of Meeting.

Resolution 1 - Approval for an issue of securities

Resolution 1 seeks approval, pursuant to Australian Securities Exchange ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of 1,100,000 shares to members of the Murninnie Mine syndicate, notified to the ASX on 28 May 2007.

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, a company may not issue more than 15% of issued capital in any 12 month period without obtaining shareholder approval or being within certain exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.2.

The effect of this resolution will be the granting of authority to the Directors to issue the above securities at any time within 3 months of the Extraordinary General Meeting (or a longer period if approved by ASX) without impacting the Company's 15% capacity.

Listing Rule 7.3 requires the following information be provided to Shareholders when seeking approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1:

    1. The maximum number of securities to be issued pursuant to this resolution is 1,100,000 ordinary shares.
    1. The Directors intend to issue the securities within 1 week of securing approval.
    1. The securities will be issued to members of the Murninnie Mine syndicate, none of whom are related parties of the Company.
    1. The shares will rank equally with all other ordinary shares in the Company.
    1. The securities are issued as consideration for the acquisition of additional equity in the Murninnie Mine PM156 and exploration licence EL3542, taking the Company's equity in these tenements from 45% to 90%.
    1. Allotment of the securities is scheduled for 25th July 2007.

The Company will disregard any votes cast on this resolution by members of the Murninnie Mine syndicate or any associate of that entity.

However the company will not disregard a vote if:

  • It is cast by a person as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote in accordance with the directions on the proxy form; or
  • It is cast by a person chairing the meeting as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote in accordance with a direction on the proxy form to vote as the proxy decides.

Resolution 2 - Ratification of an issue of securities

Resolution 1 seeks ratification, pursuant to Australian Securities Exchange ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 4.545.453 shares to Taycol Nominees Pty Ltd, notified to the ASX on 16 March 2007 and subsequently issued on 30th March 2007.

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, a company may not issue more than 15% of issued capital in any 12 month period without obtaining shareholder approval or being within certain exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.2. ASX Listing Rule 7.4 states that an issue of securities made without approval under Listing Rule 7.1 will be made with approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 if the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 and holders of ordinary shares subsequently approve the issue.

Shareholder approval is therefore retrospectively sought pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 4.545.453 shares to Taycol Nominees Pty Ltd at 16.5 cents per share. The shares shall be issued on the same terms as all existing shares in the Company.

Funds raised from this issue are directed at the Company's exploration program, in particular towards the Murninnie project in South Australia.

Although the issue of these securities was not in excess of the limits prescribed by ASX Listing Rule 7.1. shareholder approval is sought to ensure the Company maintains flexibility during the upcoming 12 month period to supplement the Company's working capital requirements, should the Board determine this to be in the best interests of the Company.

The Company will disregard any votes cast on this resolution by Taycol Nominees Pty Ltd or any associate of that entity.

However the company will not disregard a vote if:

  • It is cast by a person as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote in accordance with the directions on the proxy form; or
  • It is cast by a person chairing the meeting as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote in accordance with a direction on the proxy form to vote as the proxy decides.

Resolution 3 - Approval for an issue of securities

Resolution 3 seeks approval, pursuant to Australian Securities Exchange ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 1,000,000 options to acquire shares at 25 cents per share expiring 31 March 2011, to Taycol Nominees Pty Ltd.

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, a company may not issue more than 15% of issued capital in any 12 month period without obtaining shareholder approval or being within certain exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.2.

The effect of this resolution will be the granting of authority to the Directors to issue the above securities at any time within 3 months of the Extraordinary General Meeting (or a longer period if approved by ASX) without impacting the Company's 15% capacity.

Listing Rule 7.3 requires the following information be provided to Shareholders when seeking approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1:
