Notice of Annual General Meeting (AGM) and Stephen Bartrop not seeking Re-election at AGM

Attached is the Notice and Proxy for the AGM to be held on 16 September 2010. The Board decided to hold the AGM at Port Douglas in order to give shareholders the opportunity to visit the Company’s proposed Mt Carbine Mine Site on the day following the AGM. Shareholders interested in visiting Mt Carbine should contact Dawn Hendrick on 03 6231 3948 or [email protected].

At the 2010 AGM Mr Stephen Bartrop was scheduled to retire as a Director by rotation. With Icon about to fundamentally change its form from explorer to producer at Mt Carbine, Steve considers that this is a logical time for him to leave the Board and he will not be standing for re-election at the AGM. On behalf of all shareholders, the Company thanks Steve for his past efforts for the Company and wishes him well with his many other endeavours. The Board would like to acknowledge the role that Steve played in the formation of Icon, bringing it to IPO and assisting the Company through its formative years.
