CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Dear Shareholders and Investors,

On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company, I am pleased to present to you the Offer set out in this prospectus.

The Offer provides investors the opportunity to participate in the growth of the Company.

The Company has acquired an interest in the Malaya Molybdenum Project which is located in Sulawesi in Indonesia.

The Project incorporates the most prospective sections of a former 3[rd] Generation Contract of Work (“COW”) held by Rio Tinto during 1977 to 1985 and for a period in joint venture with Santos Ltd during 1980 to 1982. Evidence of mineralization in the area was found during a reconnaissance geochemical exploration program, conducted by Rio Tinto Indonesia (“RTI”) in 1973. During this year a 17,200km2 area (Block 3) was investigated by reconnaissance stream sediment sampling and regional geological mapping. Eighteen geochemical anomalies were identified.

In the opinion of the Directors results have outlined several areas showing potential for deposits. A number of base metal and molybdenum stream sediment anomalies were detected in streams with catchments in excess of 15km2. Results from follow-up exploration concluded that Anomalies A, B, C and S were the most promising. Best results were obtained from Anomaly B where 36 diamond drill holes, totalling 7,864m were drilled during the period October 1977 to August 1982.

An exploration program to evaluate new areas and conduct a 2,500m diamond drilling campaign to test the new targets, confirm historic assay intervals, and upgrade geological resources known to date has been commenced. At the start of January 2009, the company is pleased to announce that it has successful completed the drilling of eight (8) holes (M37 to M44). The Company believes that the results of exploration to date are promising and the Directors and the Company look forward to receiving the results of the drilling program.

Potential investors should refer to the Company‟s recent announcements released on the ASX regarding the Company‟s recent exploration results and to the geologist‟s comments in Sections 3 and 4 of this Prospectus for further information regarding the Project.

My fellow Directors and I are delighted to provide new investors with this opportunity to participate in the further expansion of the Company and its projects.

Yours sincerely,

3 COMPANY AND PROJECT OVERVIEW

The information provided in this section is summary form only. Investors should read the remainder of this Prospectus which contains more detailed information before making a decision to apply for Shares. Investors should also read all of the Company‟s public announcements regarding recent results and developments in relation to the Company and its projects.

3.1 BACKGROUND

The Company was incorporated on 2 August 1985. The Company (formerly Framont Holdings Limited, Oka Motor Company Limited, Worldwide Technology Group Limited and Richfield Group Limited) was listed on the ASX on 7 December 1994 for the purpose to manufacture and sell the Oka Motor Vehicle. In 2000 the Company disposed of its Oka Motor Vehicle business assets and pursued the importation and distribution of LCD desktops, memory modules and other peripherals. These operations have ceased.

In December 2007, the Company entered into a Heads of Agreement with certain shareholders of Victory West Pty Ltd (“Vendors”, “Victory West”) to acquire 75% of the issued capital of Victory West. In consideration for the acquisition of the 75% interest in Victory West, the Company issued to the Vendors a total of 25 million Consideration Shares (post consolidation) at an issue price of $0.20 per share and 25 million unlisted Consideration Options post consolidation. Furthermore, the Company has the first right of refusal on agreed terms to acquire the remaining 25% of Victory West Pty Ltd.

At the Company‟s Annual General Meeting convened on 26 November 2008 shareholders approved this transaction.

Victory West Pty Ltd was incorporated in October 2007 to formalise a syndicate of Australian and Indonesian mining and resource parties and investors. The sole asset of Victory West Pty Ltd is the interests and title to the Malala Molybdenum Project in Sulawesi, Indonesia.

The Victory West Group identified the Malala Molybdenum Project as a significant world class resource and was subsequently successful in securing title to the project in late 2007.

3.2 MALALA MOLYBDENUM PROJECT REVIEW

3.2.1 Overview of project

Victory West holds the rights to explore the “Malala Molybdenum Project” indirectly through its 95% ownership of PT Sulawesi Molybdenum Management, which has entered into co-operation agreements with the six KP holders. The Malala Molybdenum Project comprising of six areas or Kuasa Pertambangan (KPs) in the Toli-Toli Regency on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia that cover 287.47km2. An additional KP has been identified and applied for subsequent to acquisition and analysis of imagery data.

Sulawesi is one of the four largest islands of Indonesia and is situated between Borneo and the Maluku Islands. In 2000, the population of Sulawesi was 14,946,488 which represents about 7.25% of Indonesia‟s total population at that time.

The Malala Molybdenum Project is located in the “neck” of Sulawesi that links the north “arm” and “trunk” of this tetrapod-shaped island. Toli Toli is accessible by sea and air from Indonesia‟s capital city, Jakarta.

14

3.2.2 History of the Malala Molybdenum Project

The KPs incorporate the most prospective sections of a former 3rd Generation Contract of Work (COW) held by Rio Tinto during 1977-1985 and for a period in joint venture with Santos Ltd during 1980-82.

The Malala Project Area encompasses deep-seated metamorphic rocks, Paleogene Tinombo Formation sediments, basalts of the Papayoto Volcanics with minor associated deep-sea sediments and extensive Dondo Batholith granitoids. These rocks occur in rugged mountain ranges up to 3,000m high.

Evidence of mineralization in the area was found during a reconnaissance geochemical exploration program conducted by Rio Tinto Indonesia (RTI) in 1973. During that year a 17,200km2 area (Block 3) was investigated by reconnaissance stream sediment sampling and regional geological mapping. Eighteen geochemical anomalies were identified.

Results outlined several areas showing high potential for ore deposits. A number of base metal and molybdenum stream sediment anomalies were detected in streams with catchments in excess of 15km2. One of these streams, the Takudan River, yielded encouraging anomalous values of 245ppm Cu, 390ppm Pb, 340ppm Zn and 15 ppm Mo. Follow-up sampling in 1976 led 7km upstream to a tributary where a sample assayed 567ppm Mo. A positive geological traverse along this creek discovered molybdenite in a quartz vein system.

Block 3 was reduced in stages until the retained area was limited to two blocks of 557km2 (Main Block) and 85.6 km2 (C Block).

Results from follow-up exploration led RTI to conclude that Anomalies A, B, C and S were the most promising. Best results were obtained from Anomaly B where 36 diamond drill holes, totaling 7,864m were drilled during the period October 1977 to August 1982. The most significant drill intersection was 234m @ 0.28% MoS2 in diamond hole DDH M12. This drilling outlined the Malala molybdenum deposit with a geological resource of 107Mt @ 0.14% MoS2 (see note below: Important Information Regarding Non-JORC Resource Estimates). The evaluation used the block method for calculating resources between eight vertical sections varying from 75 to 175 metres apart and is summarised in the Table below.

It should be noted that the preceding resource estimates are historical in nature and as such are based on prior data and reports prepared by previous operators. The work necessary to verify the classification of mineral resource estimates has not been completed and the resource estimates therefore cannot be treated as JORC resources verified by a qualified person. The historical estimates should not be relied upon and there can be no assurance that any of the resources, in whole or in part, will ever become economically viable.

A JV on Block 3 with Santos was signed in 1980 at a time when molybdenum prices were at historical highs (+$US10/lb). As of 31 August 1982, total expenditure was $US6.5M.

15

A scoping study carried out by Santos indicated that the Malala project would be viable at a long term molybdenum price of US$ 6.33/lb. The low molybdenum prices prevailing at the time (<$US5/lb) made the project uneconomic and in 1983 the contract area was returned to the Indonesian Government.

3.2.3 Subsequent Analysis

The historical drill results show apparent down-grading by at least 10% due to the use of inappropriate assaying techniques for molybdenum (AAS instead of XRF); incorrect diamond bits used in drilling and core cutting and sample preparation inaccuracies. Re-assaying of selected core intersections utilizing the latest laboratory techniques would confirm the mean actual molybdenum percentage lost.

The widespread areal distribution (>4km2) of molybdenum mineralisation and alteration indicates a high potential for the discovery of a major ore deposit at Malala.

Subsequent trenching to the drilling campaigns has highlighted the need for a complete reinterpretation of the structures controlling the molybdenum mineralisation at Malala. Trenching in the area of drill hole DDH M33, for instance, has indicated the probability that the mineralisation is steeply dipping to the west. Hence, all drilling has been down dip in this area and many drill metres wasted.

A number of drill holes have stopped in mineralisation, e.g. DDHM 8, 11, 22, 30 and 32. These promising intersections need deepening so as to evaluate the true length of the mineralized zone.

These drilling deficiencies strongly indicate that the Malala deposit still requires an extensive diamond drilling campaign. Good potential exists for identification of resources by re-orientation of future drill holes and by using the XRF method for molybdenum assays.

At the start of January 2009, the drilling progress for the Phase 1 drilling program was as follows:

Drilling Statistics – August to January 2009

The results obtained by the company to date, notwithstanding the fact that many assays are outstanding, have confirmed the Directors views on the quantum of the widths and grade of molybdenum mineralisation.

3.2.4 Important Information Regarding Non-JORC Resource Estimates

The following information is material to shareholders and should be read in conjunction and with reference to the above Historical Estimates. This information is in part extracted from the Independent Geological Report by Al Maynard and Associates dated 7 January 2009.

Previous estimates of quantum of mineralisation associated with the Malala deposit were generated prior to the introduction of the JORC code guidelines for the report of identified mineral resources and ore reserves. Due to a lack of original digital data, Al Maynard and Associates is unable to fully determine the consistency of the estimates with the December 2004 JORC code guidelines. On this basis, shareholders should be aware that the estimates therefore cannot be reported as ‘resources’ or ‘reserves’ under the JORC code guidelines. Whilst Al Maynard and Associates considers that the estimates of previous mineralisation generated for the Malala deposit provide a reasonable reflection of the quantum and grade of mineralisation, there is no guarantee the re-classification will occur in the short term or at all .

  1. The Historical Estimates included in this report are not reported in accordance with the JORC Code and it is uncertain that following evaluation and/or further exploration that the resource or reserve estimate will ever be reported in accordance with the JORC Code.

  2. The Historical Estimates are sourced from the following data sources.

  3. a) PT Rio Tinto Indonesia internal memorandum dated 15 December 1981 entitled “Possible and Potential Reserves Block III” and signed by Mr. Ken Ferguson, Exploration Manager and included geological cross-sections which formed the basis of the calculations.

  4. b) PT Rio Tinto Indonesia Report Number 340 dated March 1985, to the Department of Mines and Energy of the Republic of Indonesia entitled “Final Report, Block 3, Sulawesi, Indonesia” by Ken Ferguson, Exploration Manager.

  5. c) Journal of Geochemical Exploration 50 (1994) pp 279-315 entitled “Porphyry molybdenum mineralization in a continental collision setting at Malala, northwest Sulawesi, Indonesia” by Theo Van Leeuwen and others.

  6. d) Santos Ltd internal memorandum dated 29 December 1981 by L.E. Whitehouse in relation to the method by which an estimate of possible and notional tonnages of molybdenum mineralized rock amenable to open pit and underground mining methods was arrived at. These estimates were jointly made with C.C. Brooks, Consulting Geologist, during the period 9-14 December, 1981 and included accompanying level plans which formed the basis of the calculations.

  7. e) Santos Limited International Report No. 1982/5505/1 dated February 1982 entitled “Block 3, Sulawesi. Summary of Results to end December 1981” by Laurie E. Whitehouse, Senior Geologist.

  8. The Company believes that the previous resource studies by Rio Tinto are very relevant to the current work as they define the area and location of the current “Target Mineralisation” that is to be explored as proposed by the Company. It is believed that Rio Tinto engaged in the best practice at the time of this work and therefore it is reliable. It is also material because it demonstrates the potential for a JORC Code compliant resource to be defined. The Historical Estimates are further relevant as the tonnages and grades reported are economically significant when compared to deposits currently being mined elsewhere in the world and especially in light of current molybdenum prices. Rio Tinto completed a resource

17

evaluation study on the Malala molybdenum deposit and determined a resource of [email protected]% MoS2 for Malala (Ferguson 1985).

  1. The Company believes that the Historical Estimates were conducted in accordance with best practice methods available at the time, by large multinational resource companies. As a result the Company believes the Historical Estimate to be reliable.

Whilst the Company commonly refers to the mineralisation as “Target Mineralisation” and not Resources or Reserves under the JORC Code, the following points are covered so as to provide as much relevant information as possible to comply with reporting requirements.

SAMPLING TECHNIQUES AND DATA (as specifically related to the Malala deposit at Anomaly B)

Sampling Techniques: 362 pits up to 2 metres wide and 4 metres deep were dug to bedrock and sampled for assay. 7,300 metres of creek beds were mapped and 203 rock chips were taken for assay. Detailed pitting, soil sampling and in selected locations, trenching was carried out to help delineate more accurately the boundaries of mineralisation and to try to quantify the orientation of the higher grade zones.

Drilling Techniques: A total of 36 holes, totaling 7,864 metres were drilled during the periods October 1977-June 1978 and November 1980-December 1981 using helicopter supported Longyear 38 diamond drilling rigs and expatriate drillers contracted from Longyear Australia (Adelaide). Drilling utilized double and triple tube drilling techniques to maximize core recovery. Core sizes were predominantly HQ, although PQ was used to case the upper 10-20 metres of each hole and NQ core size was used in some deeper holes. Both face centered and side discharge bits were used.

Drill sample recovery: Measures used to maximize core recovery included the use of triple tube coring techniques and reducing drill run lengths if core recovery fell below an acceptable level. On the geological log sheets, sample runs and recoveries were recorded, as well as RQD. The company does not have access to these core logs and so is unable to ascertain with any certainty whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade, although it is believed that there was no overly undue bias due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.

It is recognized that assay grades may have been downgraded by as much as 5-10% in vuggy quartz vein rich zones as a result of water washing through the use of face centered and side discharge bits. The use of larger diameter (HQ) core mitigated some of these losses. It is a well known fact that rising on drill holes for bulk samples to check drill hole assays invariably produces higher grades than those reported. In some situations a 100% increase has been reported. No sludge samples have been collected whilst drilling at Anomaly B.

This was because:

(a) it was felt that it would be misleading to try to equate sludge values with core values because of the amount of sludge coming in from around the hole, and thus over-estimating molybdenum values

(b) because of the broken nature of the ground and the fact that many of the drill holes were drilled from ridges sub-parallel to the hill slope there was no water return for the first 100 to 200 metres. It is difficult to estimate how much molybdenum has been lost this way, although it has been commonly observed that where molybdenite is associated with thick pyrite and vuggy quartz veins, substantial loss has occurred.

18

Logging: The core was logged by highly experienced expatriate geologists trained in porphyry mineralisation and alteration identification, with drill core sheets recording mineralisation, alteration and structure both visually and quantitatively (scaled histograms of intensity). Core was routinely photographed before splitting and logging for future geotechnical studies. The company does not have access to these photographs.

Sub-sampling Techniques and Sample Preparation: Core was split using an electric driven diamond saw. Half core was sent to the laboratory and the other half retained undercover in a specially built core shed for future reference, including sporadic check assaying using quarter splits. Half core was an appropriate size of sample for the expected grades of mineralisation. It is recognized that some molybdenum may have been washed away during the core-cutting process and that assays may have been downgraded by at least 5% through this sampling technique. Mechanical splitting was shown to be too slow and inaccurate due to the nature of the core, whilst assaying of whole core was not deemed advisable due to the need to access the core for future re-logging, petrological and mineragraphic studies and check assaying of quarter core.

Molybdenum values may also have been downgraded by the use of a disc pulveriser in sample preparation. Experience has shown that when disc pulverisers are cleaned off properly with compressed air), there is very little contamination from one high value to an adjacent low value, but there is a significant loss of molybdenite, which tends to stick to the disc because of the sliding friction action. A Siebe technique swing mill which uses a crushing action has been recommended as being the most suitable reducing machine for sample preparation in the future.

Quality of Assay Data and Laboratory Tests: All samples (soil, rock chip, pits, trench, and drill core) were assayed at the PT Rio Tinto laboratory in Jakarta, which although not a commercial laboratory, was set up and quality controlled in accordance with proper assaying procedures. During the second phase of drilling, standards were prepared (and assayed by outside independent laboratories) from pulverized drill core from the earlier program. These standards were inserted into every batch of samples that were subsequently assayed. In addition, check samples were also sent to outside laboratories. Assaying was by an AAS method, which tended to downgrade the assays by 12% (see next section).

Verification of sampling and assaying: In early 1981, Santos sent 113 selected core samples from the 1977/78 drilling to Analabs, Perth for XRF analysis to check the reliability of the RTI results. The Analabs XRF results suggested that correlation with RTI's AAS results was good (± 5%), where Mo is less than 1,000 ppm, but where greater than 1,000 ppm, the AAS results are undervalued by 5-20%, with an overall undervaluing of 10%, ignoring three check samples from DDH M-6 (Samples M6-5, 6, 7) which showed a 60% undervaluing.

Subsequent XRF checks on selected samples from the 1981 drilling show a similar undervaluing. The Table below shows the comparison between RTI's Jakarta Laboratory AAS values and AMDEL's XRF values for drill-core samples from DDH M-24. The XRF samples show an overall 12% increase (or 15% increase if sample M24-56 is ignored) over the AAS values.

Whilst there has been no twinning of previously drilled holes, the grades and widths of mineralisation intersected during the second phase of drilling (Santos) was comparable to the results of the first phase of drilling (Rio Tinto).

Location of Data Points: All holes were surveyed by theodolite and tied into an established surveyed grid by registered surveyors from a recognized Indonesian survey contractor. A

20

network of control points had been earlier established in preparation for this survey. A topographic plan at a scale of 1:2500 with 20m contours was prepared based on ridge and creek surveys and surveys along cross-grid liners at 100 metre spacings. The quality and adequacy of this topographic control has been vindicated by the recent (February 2008) acquisition of Orthorectified Radar Imagery (ORI) with a 1.25 pixel resolution which results in a horizontal accuracy of 2 metres and a vertical accuracy of 5 metres .This imagery was flown in 2003 by Intermap Technologies as part of the NEXTMap Indonesia countrywide mapping project. There is very good correlation between the 20 metre contour topographic plan prepared by Rio Tinto in 1981 and the 5 metre contour topographic plan prepared based on the recent ORI.

Data Spacing and Distribution: The number and distribution of soil, rock and trench samples as well as the number and total meterage of drill holes is more than adequate for reporting of Exploration results. The spacing of drill holes is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity for a Mineral Resource estimation, but inadequate for the calculation of Ore Reserves. No sample compositing has been applied.

Orientation of Data in Relation To Geological Structure: Based on the recognition of cross faulting , trenching, topographic surveying and preparation of geological cross-sections through individual holes subsequent to the completion of the two phases of drilling ,it has been recognized that drilling carried out on Anomaly B has failed to adequately test the prospect because of the orientation of most of the drill holes because of the recognition of steep westerly dipping structures being the major controls to the distribution and grade of mineralisation. Therefore in properly assessing the resources indicated by drilling to date, the following drill-holes should be ignored:

  • (a) vertical holes (DDH‟s 2, 4, 6, 7, 18, and 20)

  • (b) holes with azimuths parallel or sub-parallel to 330-340[0] (DDH's M-1, 5, 8, 9, 10, 14, 17, 19)

  • (c) other holes with dips of 70[0] or more (DDH‟s M-22, bottom half of M-29)

  • (d) holes that failed to reach target (DDH's M-25, 27, 28, 32)

  • (e) holes drilled outside main zone of interest (DDH‟s M-21, 23, 31)

The following holes, therefore, are more reliable indicators of widths and grade of mineralisation:

M-11: tested 40 metres true width with indicated average grade of 0.29% MoS2.

M-12: tested 150 metres true width with indicated average grade of 0.28% MoS2.

M-13: tested 60 metres true width with indicated average grade of 0.24% MoS2.

M-16: tested 100 metres true width with indicated average grade of 0.12% MoS2.

M-24: tested 20 metres true width on western margin of main zone of interest. Intersected high grade veins.

M-26: tested 40 metres true width on eastern margin of 120 metre wide zone of interest with indicated average grade of 0.10% MoS2.

M-30: tested 100 metres true width on eastern margin of 250 metre wide zone of interest with indicated average grade of 0.11% MoS2.

  • M-33: tested 130 metres true width on western margin of main zone of interest. Intersected high grade veins.

M-34: drilled down barren zone.

M-35: tested 80 metres true width of eastern margin 120 metre wide zone with indicated average grade of 0.07% MoS2.

M-36: tested 140 metres true width of 250 metre wide zone of interest with indicated average grade of 0.14% MoS2, before intersecting a major fault.

21

It is to be noted that to obtain a representative indication of average grade across such structurally controlled zones of mineralisation, holes should have been drilled towards a NESE azimuth with relatively shallow declinations. Drill holes 11, 12, 13 (average grades 0.24% -0.29% MoS2,) were the only holes drilled with such azimuths and dips.

Audits or Reviews: The Company does not have copies of, nor is it aware of any independent audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data having been carried out.

  1. The method of calculation is still in standard use today and in terms of JORC would qualify for “Inferred Resource” as a minimum.

  2. Please see the Company‟s recent ASX Announcements regarding recent exploration results and activities.

  3. The Historical Estimates are consistent with the guidance contained in the Companies Update numbered 11/07 and 05/04.

  4. On the 28th of March 2008 the ASX granted a waiver to listing rule 5.6 to allow the Company to report the Historical Estimates.

  5. The Company intends to evaluate the matters listed in Table 1 of the JORC Code which are relevant to the estimate and to conduct exploration for the purposes of allowing a competent person to take responsibility for the estimate of mineral resources or ore reserves so that they may be reported by the Company in accordance with the JORC Code. Key points with regards to the proposed exploration are as follows:

  6. a) A work program and budget for the ongoing exploration and resource delineation drilling has been prepared for consideration by the board of Directors.

  7. b) Subject to board approval and financing, the company intends to implement this program as soon as possible.

  8. c) It is proposed to initially conduct geological mapping, stream sediment and pan concentrate sampling, reconnaissance level rock chip sampling and ridge, spur and river bank soil sampling across all of the granted KP‟s held by the Company.

  9. d) Follow-up exploration on these results would include trenching across delineated anomalies and ground magnetic and IP surveys to identify new drill targets.

  10. e) A diamond drilling campaign of 2,500m is planned to test these new targets, confirm historic assay intervals and upgrade geological resources known to date. A budget of $US990, 000 for year 1 is proposed with a further $US1,980,000 in year 2.

  11. f) An estimated exploration budget breakdown is given in the table overleaf.

4 GEOLOGIST’S REPORT

The Independent Geologist‟s Report set out in this Prospectus has been prepared in accordance with the code and Guidelines for Assessment and Valuation of Mineral Assets and Mineral Securities for Independent Expert Reports (Valmin Code) and the rules and guidelines relating to Independent Expert Reports set by the ASIC and ASX.

Previous estimates of quantum of mineralisation associated with the Malala Deposit were generated prior to the introduction of the JORC Code guidelines for the reporting of identified mineral resources and or reserves. Due to a lack of original digital data, Al Maynard and Associates is unable to fully determine the consistency of the estimates with the December 2004 JORC Code guidelines. Whilst Al Maynard and Associates considers that the estimates of previous mineralization generated for the Malala Deposit provide a reasonable reflection of the quantum and grade of mineralization, there is no guarantee the re-classification will occur in the short term or at all.

Please refer to the Independent Geologist‟s Report by Al Maynard and Associates for further information.

7[th] January, 2009

Dear Sirs,

INDEPENDENT REPORT ON MINERAL ASSETS

PREAMBLE

Al Maynard and Associates (“AM&A”) was engaged by Richfield Group (“Richfield”) (now renamed as Victory West Moly Limited) to prepare an Independent Geological Report of the mineral assets for a prospectus to be issued to raise up to A$1.4 million through the issue of 7.0 million shares at $0.20 each. This is for the acquisition of the Malala Molybdenum Project, Sulawesi, Indonesia by Richfield pursuant to the various agreements outlined elsewhere in this prospectus. Opinions are presented in accordance with the JORC Code (2005) and other regulations and guidelines that govern the preparation of such reports.

This report is to be lodged with ASIC on or about the 23[rd] of January, 2009.

The legal status is subject to a separate Independent Solicitor‟s Report, which is in preparation. These matters have not been independently verified by AM&A. The present status of tenements listed in this report is based on information provided by Richfield and the report has been prepared on the assumption that the tenements will prove lawfully accessible for evaluation and development.

The Richfield Mineral Assets comprise eight projects that are at various stages of exploration ranging from encouraging results from surface sampling and drilling to second stage investigation. All the projects have potential to host their target commodities as described hereunder and warrant the exploration and testing programs as set out. The projects are currently at an initial stage of exploration and have potential to host economic mineral deposits. The locations of the Mineral Assets are depicted in Figures 1 and 2.

==> picture [338 x 194] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 2: Location of the Mining Right in the Malala Project.

It is our opinion that the mineral properties described in this report warrant the proposed evaluation exploration and testing programs. It is noted that proposed programs may be subject to change according to results yielded as work is carried out. We are of the opinion that Richfield has satisfactorily defined exploration and expenditure programs which are reasonable, having regard to the stated objectives of Richfield.

In the course of the preparation of this report, access has been provided to all relevant data held by Richfield and various other technical reports and information quoted in the bibliography. We have made all reasonable endeavours to verify the accuracy and relevance of the database . Richfield has warranted to AM&A that full disclosure has been made of all material in its possession and that information provided, is to the best of its knowledge, accurate and true. None of the information provided by Richfield has been specified as being confidential and not to be disclosed in our report. The authors are familiar with the structural setting and mineralisation styles and targets of the areas covered by the Richfield Mineral Assets.

Previous estimates of quantum of mineralisation associated with the Malala Deposit were generated prior to the introduction of the JORC Code guidelines for the reporting of identified mineral resources and ore reserves. Due to lack of original digital data, AM&A is unable to fully determine the consistency of the estimates with the December 2004 JORC Code guidelines. On this basis, Applicants should be aware that the estimates therefore cannot be reported as 'resources' or 'reserves' under the JORC Code guidelines. Whilst AM&A considers that the estimates of previous mineralisation generated for the Malala Deposit are reliable and provide a reasonable reflection of the quantum and grade of mineralisation, there is no guarantee the re-classification, in whole or in part, will occur in the short term or at all. No more-recent estimates are available. Please refer to the Independent Geologist's Report below for further information.

Yours faithfully.

SUMMARY

The Richfield Group (“ASX-RCH”) holds the mining rights to the “Malala Molybdenum Project” comprising six areas or Kuasa Pertambangan (KPs) in the Toli-Toli Regency on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia that cover 287.47km[2] .

The KPs incorporate the most prospective sections of a former 3[rd] Generation Contract of Work (COW) held by Rio Tinto during 1977-1985 and for a period in joint venture with Santos Ltd during 1980-82.

The Malala Project Area encompasses deep-seated metamorphic rocks, Palaeogene Tinombo Formation sediments, basalts of the Papayoto Volcanics with minor associated deep-sea sediments and extensive Dondo Batholith granitoids. These rocks occur in rugged mountain ranges up to 3,000m high.

Evidence of mineralisation in the area was found during a reconnaissance geochemical exploration program conducted by Rio Tinto Indonesia (RTI) in 1973. During that year a 17,200km[2] area (Block 3) was investigated by reconnaissance stream sediment sampling and regional geological mapping. Eighteen geochemical anomalies were identified.

Results outlined several areas showing high potential for ore deposits. A number of base metal and molybdenum stream sediment anomalies were detected in streams with catchments in excess of 15km[2] . One of these streams, the Takudan River, yielded encouraging anomalous values of 245ppm Cu, 390ppm Pb, 340ppm Zn and 15ppm Mo. Follow-up sampling in 1976 led 7km upstream to a tributary where a sample assayed 567ppm Mo. A positive geological traverse along this creek discovered molybdenite in a quartz vein system.

Block 3 was reduced in stages until the retained area was limited to two blocks of 557km[2] (Main Block) and 85.6km[2] (C Block).

Results from follow-up exploration led RTI to conclude that Anomalies A, B, C and S were the most promising. Best results were obtained from Anomaly B where 36 diamond drill holes, totalling 7,864m were drilled during the period October 1977 to August 1982. The most significant drill intersection was 234m @ 0.28% MoS2 in diamond hole DDHM 12. This drilling outlined the Malala molybdenum deposit with a geological resource of 107Mt @ 0.14% MoS2.

A JV on Block 3 with Santos was signed in 1980 at a time when molybdenum prices were at historical highs (+$US10/lb). As of 31 August 1982, total expenditure was $US 6.5M.

A scoping study carried out by Santos indicated that the Malala project would be viable at a long term molybdenum price of US$6.33/lb. The low molybdenum prices prevailing at the time (<$US5/lb) made the project uneconomic and in 1983 the contract area was returned to the Indonesian Government.

The historical drill results show apparent down-grading by at least 10% due to the use of inappropriate assaying techniques for molybdenum (AAS instead of XRF); incorrect diamond bits used in drilling and core cutting and sample preparation inaccuracies. Re-assaying of selected core intersections utilizing the latest laboratory techniques would confirm the mean actual molybdenum percentage lost.

The widespread areal distribution (>4km2) of molybdenum mineralisation and alteration indicates a high potential for the discovery of a major ore deposit at Malala.

31

Subsequent trenching to the drilling campaigns has highlighted the need for a complete reinterpretation of the structures controlling the molybdenum mineralisation at Malala. Trenching in the area of drill hole DDHM 33, for instance, has exposed that in all probability the mineralisation is steeply dipping to the west. Hence, all previous drilling has been down dip in this area and many drill metres wasted.

A number of drill holes have ended in mineralisation, e.g. DDHM 8, 11, 22, 30 and 32. These promising intersections need deepening so as to evaluate the true length of the mineralised zone.

These drilling deficiencies strongly indicate that the Malala deposit still requires an extensive diamond drilling exploration campaign. Good potential exists for a major upgrade in historical resources in both tonnage and grade by re-orientation of future drill holes and by using the XRF method for molybdenum assays. This is anticipated to enable JORC Code Mineral Resource Estimates to be made.

An exploration program is proposed to evaluate new areas and conduct a 2,500m diamond drilling campaign to test these new targets, confirm historic assay intervals and upgrade geological resources known to date. A budget of $US990,000 for year 1 is proposed with a further $US1,980,000 in year 2.

Phase 1 drilling at the project area by the Company commenced during August, 2008. The information up to 30[th] November, 2008 is that 4 diamond drill holes (M37-M40) have been completed for a total depth of 1,256 metres and hole M41 has 136m completed out of planned depth of 250m and M42 has reached 60m out of the planned 400m. Further details of the recent holes are described below in Section 7.5.

LOCATION AND ACCESS

The Malala Molybdenum Project is located at latitude 0[0] 40‟N and longitude 120[0] 30‟E in the „neck‟ of Sulawesi that links the north „arm‟ and „trunk‟ of this tetrapod-shaped island (Figure 1).

Figure 3: Transportation Routes

32

There are two modes of transport used to reach Toli-Toli:

(a) Air Transportation

Palu, the provincial capital of Central Sulawesi, can be reached by daily Boeing 737-200 flights from Jakarta via Balikpapan or Ujung Pandang. However, the safety record and reliability of the airlines servicing Palu do not meet international standards.

From Palu, Merpati Air operates an irregular Twin Otter/Casa 212 service to the small town of ToliToli. This service is heavily booked and during the wet season can be unreliable. An overnight stay (or longer) in Palu is required in order to connect to this flight.

An alternative means of access is via a rough road that extends 150km from Palu and follows the southern coast to Tinombo (Figure 2). This trip normally takes 10 to 20 hours but delays can occur due to flooding at creek crossings and landslides.

From Toli-Toli, access to the project area is by speedboat (one hour) to the staging camp at Rio Beach on Malala Bay or by the rough road to Palu (2 to 4 hours). A good walking trail (10 hour strenuous walk) connects Rio Beach with the now disused Nancy Camp at Anomaly B.

Figure 4: Location Plan: Palu – Toli-Toli.

(b) Sea Transportation

Pelni operates an inter-island ferry (MV Dobonsolo – Plate 1) which services Toli-Toli on a twice-a month schedule from Jakarta to Manado via Balikpapan. The journey from either Balikpapan or Manado to Toli-Toli takes one day and one night and comfortable first class cabins are available. Using Garuda to fly to either Balikpapan or Manado and connecting to this ferry affords the safest and most reliable means of transportation to Toli-Toli, especially during the wet season.

Plate 1: MV Dobonsolo

The Meratus Line operates a weekly container shipping service from Surabaya to Toli-Toli. A deepwater harbour exists at Rio Beach and chartered vessels can unload directly onto a pontoon.

PHYSIOGRAPHY AND CLIMATE

The terrain is rugged, with altitudes of anomalies and environs ranging from 680m to over 2,000m (Plates 2, 3 and 4). Fast flowing streams, narrow gorges, waterfalls, steep mountain slopes and narrow ridges and spurs are characteristic. Many valleys are deeply incised and drop precipitously. The valleys are often choked with debris and brush, obscuring many rock outcrops.

The area is covered by tropical rain forest. Coastal communities grow rice and cultivate clove trees. Rainfall varies from 4,600 to 6,300mm per year and falls mostly between November to January.

PREVIOUS EXPLORATION

The recognition in the late 1960s of the importance of island arcs as a setting for porphyry copper deposits, combined with optimistic expectations for copper prices and favourable contract terms offered by the Indonesian Government, spurred intensive exploration in various regions of Indonesia during the early 1970s.

One of these regions is the northern part of Sulawesi, which was selected on the basis that the Philippine‟s porphyry copper province might extend into this part of Indonesia. This hypothesis was proven correct when a number of sub-economic copper-gold porphyry deposits were discovered in the Tapadaa and Tombulilato districts and drilled by Kennecott in 1973-75 and BHP/Utah in the 1980s.

More surprising was the discovery of porphyry-style molybdenum mineralisation in the Malala district located farther to the west, as hitherto, no significant porphyry molybdenum occurrences were known to exist in the Southeast Asian region.

Evidence of mineralisation in the area was found during a reconnaissance geochemical exploration program conducted by Rio Tinto Indonesia (RTI) in 1973. During that year, a 17,200km[2] area, known as Block 3 (Figure 5), was investigated by reconnaissance stream sediment sampling and regional geological mapping. Eighteen geochemical anomalies were located but follow-up work was delayed until negotiations with the Government as to exploration terms were completed in 1976.

Detailed investigations of these geochemical anomalies were carried out in 1976-77 under a Preliminary Survey Agreement (SIPP). Results of this exploration identified the existence of several areas showing high potential for ore deposits. A number of base metal and molybdenum stream sediment anomalies were detected in streams with catchments in excess of 15km[2] . One of these streams, the Takudan River, yielded encouraging anomalous values of 245ppm Cu, 390ppm Pb, 340ppm Zn and 15 ppm Mo. Follow-up sampling in 1976 led 7km upstream to a tributary where a sample assayed 567ppm Mo. A positive geological traverse along this creek discovered molybdenite in a quartz vein system.

38

On the 13th June, 1977, RTI signed a Third Generation Contract of Work (COW) with the Government of Indonesia. Block 3, centred on Latitude 1°00' S and Longitude 121°30' E, occurs in the province of Central Sulawesi, whose capital is Palu.

Initially, Block 3 covered 17,200 km[2] , but this was reduced in stages until the retained area was limited to two blocks of 557 km[2] (Main Block) and 85.6 km[2] (C Block).

Exploration results from high density stream sampling led RTI to conclude that Anomalies A, B, C and S were the most promising. Best results were obtained from Anomaly B where 36 diamond drill holes, totalling 7,864m were drilled during the period October 1977 to August 1982 (Plate 5). This drilling outlined the Malala molybdenum deposit with a „geological resource‟ (See Notes below) of 107Mt @ 0.14% MoS2.

Notes: The Company is treating this estimate as an „Exploration Target‟ or „Target Mineralisation‟ rather than any form of resource with a tonnage target range from 105Mt to 115Mt and the grade range from 0.11% MoS2 to 0.15% MoS2.

As stated in the introduction, the reference to previously outlined mineralisation before the JORC Code was promulgated has to be subject to conditions and qualifying statements. Thus, the term „geological resource‟ is no longer valid and we are replacing it with “Target Mineralisation‟ rather than any description of resource at all.

The Reader is cautioned that these “Target Mineralisation Estimates” have not been drilled sufficiently to allow definition according to JORC standards and future exploration may not define them at all. (Please note that this type of statement is required by ASX regulations under the JORC Code guidelines to be placed in proximity to any occurrence of reference to „Target Mineralisation‟.

A JV on Block 3 with Santos was signed in 1980 at a time when molybdenum prices were at historical highs (+$US10/lb). As of 31 August 1982, total expenditure was $US 6.5M.

A scoping study carried out by Santos indicated that the Malala project would be viable at a long term molybdenum price of US$ 6.33/lb. The low molybdenum prices prevailing at the time (<$US5/lb, see Plate 6) made the project uneconomic and in 1983 the contract area was returned to the Indonesian Government after negotiations aimed at seeking a retention lease on the deposit were unsuccessful.

In 1997, Rio Tinto (Rio) signed a 6[th] Generation COW in the name of PT Citra Palu Minerals for gold exploration covering essentially the same area as the previous Block 3 COW area. Rio focused it exploration efforts on defining a gold resource near Palu, but were frustrated by environmental (forestry) issues and subsequently sold the contract to PT Bumi Resources, an Indonesian company controlled by the powerful Bakrie Group conglomerate. Whilst the Malala molybdenum deposit lay within Block 3 of this COW, no exploration has been carried out on the deposit since 1982.

Plate 6: Molybdenum Prices: 1979-2007

Sampling Techniques: 362 pits, up to 2 metres wide and 4 metres deep were dug to bedrock and sampled for assay. 7,300 metres of creek beds were mapped and 203 rock chips were taken for assay. Detailed pitting, soil sampling and in selected locations, trenching was carried out to help delineate more accurately the boundaries of mineralisation and to try to quantify the orientation of the higher grade zones.

Drilling Techniques: A total of 36 holes, totalling 7,864 metres were drilled during the periods October 1977-June 1978 and November 1980-December 1981 using helicopter supported Longyear 38 diamond drilling rigs and expatriate drillers contracted from Longyear Australia (Adelaide). Drilling utilized double and triple tube drilling techniques to maximize core recovery. Core sizes were predominantly HQ, although PQ was used to case the upper 10-20 metres of each hole and NQ core size was used in some deeper holes. Both face centred and side discharge bits were used.

Drill sample recovery: Measures used to maximize core recovery included the use of triple tube coring techniques and reducing drill run lengths if core recovery fell below an acceptable level. On the geological log sheets, sample runs and recoveries were recorded, as well as RQD. The company does not have access to these core logs and so is unable to ascertain with any certainty whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade, although it is believed that there was no overly undue bias due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.

It is recognized that assay grades may have been downgraded by as much as 5-10% in vuggy quartz vein rich zones as a result of water washing through the use of face centred and side discharge bits. The use of larger diameter (HQ) core mitigated some of these losses. It is a well known fact that rising on drill holes for bulk samples to check drill hole assays invariably produces higher grades than those reported. In some situations a 100% increase has been reported. No sludge samples have been collected whilst drilling at Anomaly B.

This was because:

(a) it was felt that it would be misleading to try to equate sludge values with core values because of the amount of sludge coming in from around the hole, and thus over-estimating molybdenum values, and

(b) because of the broken nature of the ground and the fact that many of the drill holes were drilled from ridges sub-parallel to the hill slope there was no water return for the first 100 to 200 metres. It is difficult to estimate how much molybdenum has been lost this way, although it has been commonly observed that where molybdenite is associated with thick pyrite and vuggy quartz veins, substantial loss has occurred.

41

Logging: The core was logged by highly experienced expatriate geologists trained in porphyry mineralisation and alteration identification, with drill core sheets recording mineralisation, alteration and structure both visually and quantitatively (scaled histograms of intensity). Core was routinely photographed before splitting and logging for future geotechnical studies. The company does not have access to these photographs.

Sub-sampling Techniques and Sample Preparation: Core was split using an electric driven diamond saw. Half core was sent to the laboratory and the other half retained undercover in a specially built core shed for future reference, including sporadic check assaying using quarter splits. Half core was an appropriate size of sample for the expected grades of mineralisation. It is recognized that some molybdenum may have been washed away during the core-cutting process and that assays may have been downgraded by at least 5% through this sampling technique. Mechanical splitting was shown to be too slow and inaccurate due to the nature of the core, whilst assaying of whole core was not deemed advisable due to the need to access the core for future relogging, petrological and mineragraphic studies and check assaying of quarter core.

Molybdenum values may also have been downgraded by the use of a disc pulveriser in sample preparation. Experience has shown that when disc pulverisers are cleaned off properly with compressed air), there is very little contamination from one high value to an adjacent low value, but there is a significant loss of molybdenite, which tends to stick to the disc because of the sliding friction action. A Siebe technique swing mill which uses a crushing action has been recommended as being the most suitable reducing machine for sample preparation in the future.

Quality of Assay Data and Laboratory Tests: All samples (soil, rock chip, pits, trench, and drill core) were assayed at the PT Rio Tinto laboratory in Jakarta, which although not a commercial laboratory, was set up and quality controlled in accordance with proper assaying procedures. During the second phase of drilling, standards were prepared (and assayed by outside independent laboratories) from pulverized drill core from the earlier program. These standards were inserted into every batch of samples that were subsequently assayed. In addition, check samples were also sent to outside laboratories. Assaying was by an AAS method, which tended to downgrade the assays by 12% (see next section).

Verification of sampling and assaying: In early 1981, Santos sent 113 selected core samples from the 1977/78 drilling to Analabs, Perth for XRF analysis to check the reliability of the RTI results. The Analabs XRF results suggested that correlation with RTI's AAS results was good (± 5%), where Mo is less than 1,000 ppm, but where greater than 1,000 ppm, the AAS results are undervalued by 5-20%, with an overall undervaluing of 10%, ignoring three check samples from DDH M-6 (Samples M6-5, 6, 7) which showed a 60% undervaluing.

Subsequent XRF checks on selected samples from the 1981 drilling show a similar undervaluing. Table 3 shows the comparison between RTI's Jakarta Laboratory AAS values and AMDEL's XRF values for drill-core samples from DDH M-24. The XRF samples show an overall 12% increase (or 15% increase if sample M24-56 is ignored) over the AAS values.

Whilst there has been no twinning of previously drilled holes, the grades and widths of mineralisation intersected during the second phase of drilling (Santos) was comparable to the results of the first phase of drilling (Rio Tinto).

Location of Data Points: All holes were surveyed by theodolite and tied into an established surveyed grid by registered surveyors from a recognized Indonesian survey contractor. A network of control points had been earlier established in preparation for this survey. A topographic plan at a scale of 1:2500 with 20m contours was prepared based on ridge and creek surveys and surveys along cross-grid liners at 100 metre spacings. The quality and adequacy of this topographic control has been vindicated by the recent (February 2008) acquisition of Orthorectified Radar Imagery (ORI) with a 1.25 pixel resolution which results in a horizontal accuracy of 2 metres and a vertical accuracy of 5 metres .This imagery was flown in 2003 by Intermap Technologies as part of the NEXTMap Indonesia countrywide mapping project. There is very good correlation between the 20

43

metre contour topographic plan prepared by Rio Tinto in 1981 and the 5 metre contour topographic plan prepared based on the recent ORI.

Data Spacing and Distribution: The number and distribution of soil, rock and trench samples as well as the number and total metres of drill holes is more than adequate for reporting of Exploration results. The spacing of drill holes is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity for a Mineral Resource estimation, but inadequate for the calculation of Ore Reserves. No sample compositing has been applied.

Orientation of Data in Relation To Geological Structure: Based on the recognition of cross faulting , trenching, topographic surveying and preparation of geological cross-sections through individual holes subsequent to the completion of the two phases of drilling ,it has been recognized that drilling carried out on Anomaly B has failed to adequately test the prospect because of the orientation of most of the drill holes because of the recognition of steep westerly dipping structures being the major controls to the distribution and grade of mineralisation. Therefore in properly assessing the resources indicated by drilling to date, the following drill-holes should be ignored:

(a) vertical holes (DDHs 2, 4, 6, 7, 18, and 20)

  • (b) holes with azimuths parallel or sub-parallel to 330-340[0] (DDHs M-1, 5, 8, 9, 10, 14, 17,

  • 19)

  • (c) other holes with dips of 70[0] or more (DDHs M-22, bottom half of M-29)

  • (d) holes that failed to reach target (DDHs M-25, 27, 28, 32)

  • (e) holes drilled outside main zone of interest (DDHs M-21, 23, 31)

The following holes, therefore, are more reliable indicators of widths and grade of mineralisation:

M-11: tested 40 metres true width with indicated average grade of 0.29% MoS2,

M-12: tested 150 metres true width with indicated average grade of 0.28% MoS2,

M-13: tested 60 metres true width with indicated average grade of 0.24% MoS2,

M-16: tested 100 metres true width with indicated average grade of 0.12% MoS2,

M-24: tested 20 metres true width on western margin of main zone of interest. Intersected high grade veins.

M-26: tested 40 metres true width on eastern margin of 120 metre wide zone of interest with indicated average grade of 0.10% MoS2,

M-30: tested 100 metres true width on eastern margin of 250 metre wide zone of interest with indicated average grade of 0.11% MoS2,

M-33: tested 130 metres true width on western margin of main zone of interest. Intersected high grade veins.

M-34: drilled down barren zone

M-35: tested 80 metres true width of eastern margin 120 metre wide zone with indicated average grade of 0.07% MoS2,

M-36: tested 140 metres true width of 250 metre wide zone of interest with indicated average grade of 0.14% MoS2, before intersecting a major fault.

It is to be noted that to obtain a representative indication of average grade across such structurally controlled zones of mineralisation, holes should have been drilled towards a NE-SE azimuth with relatively shallow declinations. Drill holes 11, 12, 13 (average grades 0.24% -0.29% MoS2,) were the only holes drilled with such azimuths and dips.

Audits or Reviews: The Company does not have copies of, nor is it aware of any independent audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data having been carried out.

REPORTING OF EXPLORATION RESULTS

Mineral Tenement and Land Tenure Status: The Richfield Group (“ASX-RCH”) through various legal agreements with Indonesian parties holds the rights to six mining rights ( Kuasa

Database Integrity: Drillhole logs, assay reports and drill core are not available to the company and therefore cannot be used for Mineral Resource estimation purposes.

Geological Interpretation: Previously discussed in first section.

Dimensions: Copies of plans and working sheets available to the company which gives confidence in the estimates prepared by previous explorers.

Estimation of Modelling Techniques: The Rio Tinto resource estimate was based on widely spaced geological cross-sections which did not take into account the topography and how much of the resource could be reasonably expected to be possibly mined by open pit methods and/or underground methods with respect to the grade. The Santos resource estimate was prepared using stricter criteria that took into account topography, likely mining methods and was based on level plans. The resource only included drillhole intercepts greater than 9 metres (based on an industry standard bench height of six metres) grading plus 0.1% MoS2. In both cases, resource estimation was based on manual methods (i.e. not computer based block modelling methods).

The mineralogy of the deposit is dominantly molybdenite and as there would be no by-products such as copper or lead-zinc, these were not factored into the resource calculations.

Moisture: Tonnages were estimated on an in-situ basis and no moisture contents were factored in.

Cut-off parameters: In both resource estimates, a cut-off of 0.1% MoS2 was used

Mining Factors or Assumptions: See discussion above under estimation of modelling techniques

Metallurgical Factors or Assumptions: No assumptions were made other than the assumption that based on thin section and polished section petrography work, the liberation of molybdenum using established crushing and flotation procedures would be simple.

Bulk Density: An average SG of 2.5 was used based on limited SG work done on drill core and on the average SG of the intrusive rocks hosting the mineralisation.

Classification: The Rio Tinto resource estimate would fall into the category “Inferred Mineral Resource” because the estimates did not take into account topographical restraints. The Santos resource estimate, based on level plans and taking mining factors into account, would fall into the category “Indicated Mineral Resource” since the locations of the drill holes are too widely spaced or inappropriately spaced (with reference to the azimuth drilled in relation the structural control model) to confirm geological and/or grade continuity but are spaced closely enough for continuity to be assumed.

These resource estimates and classifications appropriately reflect the Competent Person‟s view of the deposit.

Audits or Reviews: The Company does not have copies of, nor is it aware of any independent audits or reviews of Mineral Resource estimates having been carried out.

GEOLOGY

Regional Geology of Indonesia

Indonesia is the largest archipelago in the world, comprising five major islands and 300 smaller island groups. There are 13,667 islands in total of which 6,000 are inhabited. The archipelago is situated where the Pacific and Indian Oceans join. Tectonically, the country is bounded by the south-eastern extension of the Eurasian Plate, to the south and west by the Indian Ocean Plate and to the east by the Philippine Sea and Pacific Plates (Figure 6).

The margins of these Plates are colliding, resulting in the consumption of plates along subduction zones, the creation of volcanic arcs and formation of compressional and oblique slip structures. A regional geological map is shown in Figure 7.

The physiographic setting of the Indonesian archipelago is dominated by two continental shelves. The Sunda Shelf lies to the west and the Sahul Shelf lies to the east, separated by a geologically complex region of deep sea basins and island arcs.

Figure 9: Regional Geology of Indonesia.

Regional Geology of Sulawesi Island

Sulawesi Island and its surrounding area is a complex geological region due to the convergence between three major tectonic Plates. Regional geology and tectonics of Sulawesi are shown on Figure 8.

Based on lithologic association and tectonic development, Sulawesi and its surrounding islands are divided into 5 tectonic provinces:

  • (i) Tertiary, Western Sulawesi Volcanic Arc

  • (ii) Quaternary, Minahasa-Sangihe Volcanic Arc

  • (iii) Cretaceous-Palaeogene, Central Sulawesi Metamorphic Belt

  • (iv) Cretaceous, Eastern Sulawesi Ophiolite Belt

  • (v) Palaeozoic, Banda-Sula micro-continental fragments derived from the Australian continent.

The Western Sulawesi Volcanic Arc, in which the Malala molybdenum deposit occurs, consists of two distinct elements, the Northern Sulawesi magmatic arc and the Western Sulawesi magmatic arc.

The Northern Sulawesi magmatic arc is composed of a series of spatially overlapping andesitic to rhyodacitic volcanic arcs overlying an Eocene-Oligocene marine basaltic basement which is probably underlain by oceanic crust. These rocks are intruded by Mio-Pliocene granodiorite and quartz diorite batholiths, stocks and dykes. The Tombuilato-Tapadaa-Cabang Kiri copper-gold porphyry deposits are related to the quartz diorite stocks.

The Lanut, Mesel and Toka Tindung epithermal gold occurrences are hosted by Mio-Pliocene volcanics.

In contrast to the young island arc setting of Northern Sulawesi, the Western Sulawesi magmatic arc displays a more continental character and has a longer, more complex history. The region is underlain by Mesozoic through Quaternary volcano-sedimentary formations that are juxtaposed with or overlie metamorphic rocks of Early Cretaceous and younger ages. These formations are intruded by granitoids of predominantly granodioritic to granitic composition.

47

Known mineralisation in Western Sulawesi includes a small syenite-monzonite hosted porphyry copper deposit, a Kuroko-type massive sulphide occurrence and the Malala molybdenum deposit.

Regional Geology of Malala Project Area

The Malala Project Area encompasses the „neck‟ and western extremity of the „north arm‟ of Sulawesi. This part of the western arc has been strongly uplifted, exposing deep-seated metamorphic rocks, Paleogene sedimentary rocks with interbedded volcanic rocks (Tinombo Formation), basaltic rocks with minor associated deep-sea sedimentary rocks (Papayoto Volcanics) and large granitoids bodies (Dondo Batholith). These rocks occur in rugged mountain ranges up to 3,000m high. Neogene sedimentary deposits (Buol Sediments; Celebes Molasse) and volcanic deposits (Ongka Volcanics) have been locally preserved at lower elevations in coastal areas (Figure 9).

In addition to the Malala molybdenum deposit, the Dondo Batholith hosts several other molybdenum occurrences and extensive areas of low-grade pyrite, galena and sphalerite mineralisation in contact zones between the Batholith and Tinombo Formation.

Local Geology of Malala Molybdenum Deposit

The Malala molybdenum deposit occurs within a porphyritic batholith embayment intruding Eocene age tuffaceous sediments (Figure 10). The batholith which has an approximate age of 4Ma (van Leeuwen et al. 1994) is a southeasterly extension of the larger Dondo Batholith and ranges from quartz monzonite-granodiorite to diorite. Tinombo Group sediments and volcanics partially surround the Malala deposit and extend as a 20km wide belt trending north east to south west. Within the prospect area, Tinombo Group rocks occur as wallrock and roof pendants composed of tuffs, phyllites and quartz argillites.

Major structures, including the Dondo lineament, the Takudan fault and AB linear are considered to be of economic importance and are shown in Figure 10. The Dondo lineament is an assumed fault line and forms the eastern edge of a horst-graben complex with west block down.

Rock Types

(a) Tinombo Rock Types

The volcanic-sediment wallrocks that occur in the Malala molybdenum deposit are believed to be Eocene in age and are dominated by tuffaceous meta-sediments, tuffs and contact hybrid rocks. In

50

the field, these rocks are grey phyllite, black phyllite, silicified phyllite, quartz-banded argillite and tuff.

(b) Hybrid Rock Types

Tinombo-intrusive hybrids are often developed at intrusive-Tinombo contacts and are common in drill core. Generally the thickness of these hybrids is only a few metres but in some drill holes, thicknesses of tens of metres have been noted. In areas of strong phyllic alteration it is difficult to distinguish between highly altered contaminated intrusives and Tinombo hybrids. The nature of the hybrids suggests passive metasomatic replacement of the Tinombo by the intrusive body rather than a forceful intrusion. Intrusive breccias are rare.

(c) Intrusives -General

Intrusive rocks found at the Malala deposit consist dominantly of quartz monzonite porphyry. Diorite and granodiorite are rare but common at Anomalies A and S. Rare dolerite, found in float, has been seen in drill core to be a highly differentiated basic phase of Tinombo metavolcanics.

(d) Intrusives -Quartz Monzonite Porphyry (QMP)

In areas away from hydrothermal alteration, mineralisation and faults, QMP is a very distinctive rock. Pink orthoclase phenocrysts up to 2cm across and quartz phenocrysts with diameters up to 8mm are set in a light grey matrix of orthoclase, plagioclase and lesser biotite. With increasing alteration, orthoclase phenocrysts become bleached and are progressively replaced by carbonate-sericite-clay assemblages.

(e) SAFI

The acronym "SAFI" is a field term denoting "Silica Altered Fragmented Intrusive” and has been used to avoid any implication as to origin until this could be established. It is found within or near mineralised zones and hence is of importance. In essence, SAFI is a quartz stockwork with sharpedged intersecting quartz veins surrounding angular non-rotated fragments of altered quartz monzonite porphyry. SAFI 1 is a term used to denote that quartz forms at least 50% of the rock by volume. SAFI 2 is used to denote gradations between 15% and 50% quartz by volume.

Alteration

At the Malala molybdenum deposit there is a number of distinct alteration assemblages (Ferguson 1985). Their relative ages, based on overprinting relationships, have been observed in drill core. The earliest alteration assemblage is a potassic assemblage, characterized by secondary biotite and potassium-rich feldspars. Secondary biotite is predominantly found as red-brown „hairline‟ veinlets pervading the matrix although fine brown disseminations are not uncommon. Potassiumrich feldspar is less common and is found as veins generally less than 1cm thick and although sometimes associated with secondary biotite, it is general spatially separated and possibly older than the secondary biotite.

The next assemblage is characterised by clay-sericite-quartz-carbonate minerals as progressive pervasive replacement of feldspars and matrix, as narrow crackle veinlets and as thicker veins. In Tinombo rocks, talc, calc-silicate and serpentinite are found in place of biotite in quartz-biotite schists and argillites.

Overprinting this assemblage is a phase of chlorite-magnetite-calcite veining, often with green sericite alteration envelopes, and also pervasive replacement, especially in Tinombo rocks. Associated with this phase and possibly younger, are massive pyrite veins and quartz-sericite-

51

chalcopyrite veins with green sericite haloes which overlap the earlier phases which, in turn, overprint unaltered intrusive.

The next youngest alteration assemblage is propylitic in nature, with calcite-chlorite, chlorite-calcite and magnetite-epidote being the dominant minerals. This assemblage shows weak development in generally unaltered rock. Minor silicification, as a result of barren quartz veining, is also associated with this phase. It is sometimes difficult to separate this phase from the potassic zone as overlapping and retrograde relationships are commonly observed.

A younger event appears to be post mineral sericite-quartz hydrothermal washing and argillisation along fault zones, as seen in DDHM22 and M36, whilst the youngest event appears to be barren carbonate veining which is ubiquitous over the whole area.

One alteration type that is difficult to place in the above sequence of alteration assemblages is the relationship of SAFI to the hydrothermal events. SAFI and quartz veined intrusive rocks approaching SAFI are spatially related to potassic zones with thick massive quartz veins often enclosing fragments of secondary biotite altered QMP and also clay-sericite-carbonate altered QMP. These rocks, however, have not suffered any of the later alteration phases. In addition, the linear nature of the distribution of SAFI rocks and proximity to major faults is suggestive that at least some SAFI has been formed as a result of silica-infilling along both early and late faults.

Mineralisation

Molybdenum mineralisation with alteration occurs over an area of 4km[2] (van Leeuwen et al 1994). The molybdenum-in-soil anomaly (Figure 11) reflects the near-surface distribution of molybdenum in rock. In general, the mineralisation forms a zone of molybdenite, up to 50m thick, located at the intrusive contact. Some mineralisation also occurs within Tinombo Formation rocks. Subsequent block faulting and erosion has resulted in the irregular distribution of the exposed molybdenum mineralisation. Highest grades occur in the East Zone, an elongate, NW trending mineralised zone located in a steeply dipping, fault-controlled setting.

The East Zone is approximately 1,850m long, 30 to 300m wide and has been drill-tested to depths of 200m. Drill results are discussed in Chapter 7.

Figure 13: Molybdenum Geochemistry over the Malala Deposit.

52

To date, four main stages of molybdenum mineralisation and alteration have been recognized:

Stage I is an early phase of barren quartz veining

Stage II is represented by potassic alteration, quartz veining and molybdenite mineralisation

Stage III is characterised by sericite-chlorite-carbonate alteration accompanied by base metal mineralisation and locally by molybdenite

Stage IV is dominated by carbonate and clay alteration and lacks sulphide mineralisation.

Sulphide minerals include molybdenite and pyrite, with minor chalcopyrite, galena, sphalerite and pyrrhotite and constitute less than 2% of the host rock. The average molybdenum to copper ratio in the East Zone is approximately 4 to 1.

A generalized paragenetic sequence for vein stages I to IV, including the presence and relative abundance of each mineral are shown in Figure 12.

DISCUSSION

Rio Tinto’s 1977-1978 Drilling Program

The Malala molybdenum deposit was explored by Rio Tinto from 1977 to 1979 and culminated in 21 diamond drill holes for 3,873 m being drilled (Aspinall 1978, 1979 and 1980). Significant results are shown in Table 5.

The 1976 soil and stream geochemical survey located surface zones of molybdenite mineralisation. Within a 5km[2] area five mineralised exposures were discovered in creeks that range from 60m to 600m of continuous molybdenite (Mo) mineralisation. All Mo showings at Malala are located in creeks. Locally, the Mo mineralisation is in fractures and stockworks associated with shears and faults. So far, no disseminated Mo mineralisation has been observed and invariably accompanied with alteration. Surface work indicated mineralised fractures may have had a preferred orientation.

Mineralisation principally consists of molybdenum with minor copper and traces of lead and zinc. Drilling results have indicated that molybdenite occurs in quartz monzonite porphyry (“QMP”) down to a depth of at least 200m. The mineralised zone appears to represent a "halo" of molybdenitebearing QMP formed primarily below the Tinombo-QMP contact.

In spite of the fact of numerous molybdenite exposures at Malala, drilling has indicated that Mo mineralisation is mainly concentrated in the east section, with a smaller deposit in the western part of Malala. Estimated geological resources in the eastern and western sections were 54.8Mt @ 0.24% MoS2 and 8.4Mt @ 0.13% MoS2, respectively.

Santos’ 1981 Drilling Program

In 1980, Santos Ltd acquired an option over the property and completed an additional 3,991 m of drilling in 15 holes (Whitehouse 1982). Best intersection yielded 363m @ 0.10 % MoS2 in drill hole DDHM 30. Other significant results are shown in Table 6.

The company reinterpreted controls to the Mo mineralisation and considered shallow dipping zones associated with fracture systems parallel to the roof of the main batholith were present at the Malala deposit.

The main zone, 50 to 100m thick, was postulated to show continuity between DDHM20, M6, M19, M1, M12 and M14. An upper zone, 100 to 300m thick, was believed to lie approximately 100m above the main zone and show a similar strike and dip. The upper blanket was characteristically lead- and zinc-rich with molybdenum mineralisation being patchy.

Santos considered a cupola model for the Mo mineralisation at Malala. Cupolas were envisaged as being developed in irregularities in the roof zone of the main batholith (Figures 13 and 14). Drilling to test this model was unsuccessful as many holes failed to reach target and others yielded confusing results.

A change of strategy resulted in resource drilling in the area bounded by DDHM 19, and DDHM11, M12 and M13. It was decided that a series of holes be drilled at 200m intervals from S. Takudan to DDHM19. Each hole was to be 350m in length so that the whole width of the eastern limb could be intersected and drilling was to be towards the southwest.

High-grade intersections, up to 1.68% MoS2 over 12m in DDHM 24 and extensive zones of Mo mineralisation, up to 363m in length @ 0.10% MoS2 in DDHM 30 were cut. However, correlation between drill holes was poor and possibly due to intersecting different vein systems.

A preliminary economic evaluation was then undertaken including tonnage and grade of molybdenum mineralisation required at the Malala deposit for economic viability. The results of this evaluation are discussed in Section 7.4.

Molybdenum Losses in Drilling Assay Results

The historical drill results show apparent down-grading due to the use of inappropriate assaying techniques, incorrect diamond bits used in drilling and core cutting and sample preparation inaccuracies.

In Rio Tinto‟s 1977-78 drilling campaign, all core samples were analysed by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) at the company‟s Jakarta laboratory rather than by XRF methods.

In 1981, Santos sent 113 core samples from the 1977-78 drilling to Analabs, Perth for XRF analysis to check the reliability of the RTI results. The Analabs XRF results suggested that correlation with RTI's AAS results was good (± 5%), where Mo is less than 1,000 ppm, but where greater than 1,000 ppm, the AAS results are undervalued by 5-20%, with an average undervaluing of 10%, ignoring three check samples from DDH M 6 (Samples M6-5, 6, 7) which showed a 60% down-grading. Subsequent XRF checks on selected samples from the 1981 drilling show a similar undervaluing.

A comparison between AAS (RTI's Jakarta Laboratory) and XRF (AMDEL) values for drill-core samples from DDHM 24 is given in Table 7. The XRF samples show an average increase of 12%.

It is considered molybdenum results were downgraded by the washing of core whilst drilling with face and side discharge bits. No sludge check samples were collected whilst drilling at the Malala deposit.

This was due to no water return in the first 100 to 200m because of broken ground. It was difficult to estimate molybdenum lost during drilling and substantial losses are believed to have occurred in the massive, friable pyrite and vughy quartz vein zones.

Notes:

1. A1 and A2 are 100gm splits of the same sample after passing through the disc mill

2. B and C are 100gm splits of the same sample after passing through the roller mill but before passing through the disc mill

3. % increase is the difference between the Amdel XRF value and the RTI AAS value for the A1, A2 samples and the B, C samples

Molybdenum values are thought to have been further downgraded by the loss of molybdenite through the core saw washing action. No sludges from diamond saw operations were collected and assayed.

The fourth downgrading of molybdenum values may have occurred with the use of a disc pulveriser in sample preparation. In future, a Siebe swing mill which uses a crushing action will be utilized for sample preparation.

In summary, molybdenum assays from historical drilling have apparently been down-graded by at least 10% but could be higher. Re-assaying of selected core intersections utilizing the latest laboratory techniques would confirm the mean actual molybdenum percentage lost.

Previous Estimate of Resources at Malala Deposit

Rio Tinto completed a resource evaluation study on the Malala molybdenum deposit and determined a resource of 107Mt @ 0.14% MoS2 for Malala (Ferguson 1985). This previous resource study by Rio Tinto is very relevant to the current work as it defines the area and location of the current “Target Mineralisation” that is to be explored as proposed by Richfield. It is believed that Rio Tinto engaged in the best practice at the time of this work and therefore it is reliable. It is also material because it demonstrates the potential for a JORC Code compliant resource to be defined. The method of calculation is still in standard use today and would qualify for “Inferred Resource” as a minimum. However Richfield is being very conservative by describing it as “Target Mineralisation”See Note below.

The evaluation used the block method for calculating resources between eight vertical sections varying from 75 to 175m apart and is summarised in Table 8

Method: Interpolation of mineralised blocks using vertical cross-sections.

Table 8: Block Summary of Historical Resources at Malala Deposit.

It should be noted that the preceding resource estimates are historical in nature and as such are based on prior data and reports prepared by previous operators. The work necessary to verify the classification of mineral resource estimates has not been completed and the resource estimates therefore cannot be treated as JORC resources verified by a qualified person. The historical estimates should not be relied upon and there can be no assurance that any of the resources, in whole or in part, will ever become economically viable.

(a) Drill Hole M37

The first hole of the current Richfield Phase 1 drilling program, drillhole M37 (see Figure 1) was collared at location “A”, approx. 5 metres from the collar of M11, 12, 13.

This hole was also designed to see if the weakly mineralised Tinombo Formation rock type that it ended in (from 279-317m) was an isolated raft or whether there was additional mineralised QMP intrusive further to the northeast.

The drilling not only strongly suggested that the latter was the case, but also that it is quite probable that the strong molybdenum anomaly to be tested by drillhole F represents a separate sheeted veined system lying along the NW-SE structural trend.

If this is shown to be true, then the total width of the mineralised system would at least double.

It had been proposed to continue drillhole M37 past its planned depth of 400 metres for as long as strongly mineralised QMP intrusive rocks were encountered in drilling. Unfortunately, drillhole M37 was abandoned at a depth of 404.85 metres on 9 September, 2008 due to drilling problems.

Visual observations by on-site geologists of drill core have confirmed that the deposit is a sheeted vein system. The assay results have confirmed the continuance of the mineralised sheeted vein system to a down-hole depth of 250 metres.

The combined intercept for the first 250 metres of hole M37 is as follows:

Table 11: Assay Intercepts for Drillhole M37.

Based on an arbitrary 1,000ppm Mo assay cut-off, the mineralised sheeted vein intervals above have a total combined down-hole width and assay of 110 metres at 0.35% MoS2 (0.21% Mo) and 0.48 ppm Re.

From 246 – 333 metres downhole depth, hole M37 intersected phyllite wallrock and the relative impermeability of this rock type in comparison to the upper clay-sericite-carbonate intrusive has resulted in a lower, sub-economic grade of molybdenum mineralisation being encountered in this interval.

Final assays show an average intercept for the interval 250-357 metres of 107 metres at 0.04% MoS2 (0.022% Mo), 0.02% Re. What is significant, however, is the fact that structurally controlled molybdenum mineralisation is showing continuity through the phyllite wallrock, thus increasing the potential width of the main NW trending structurally -controlled mineralised zone.

From 357 metres until the end of the hole, drillhole M37 penetrated a major fault zone in which all mineralisation has been leached out. This is reflected in the assays which show Mo contents of less than 10ppm in this zone.

The rhenium (Re) assays show that there is a direct correlation between the higher grade molybdenum assays and the higher grade rhenium assays. The average rhenium assay is 0.26 ppm (g/t) over the first 250 metres of this hole.

With a current spot price of US$10,000/kg ($10/gm or US$2.60 for 0.26ppm), these assays show that the economics of a possible future mining operation would be significantly enhanced by the sale proceeds of a rhenium by-product contained within the molybdenum concentrates. The highest rhenium assay returned was 3.08 ppm from a one metre interval assaying 1.07% Mo.

It was hoped that drillhole M37 would replicate the results of Rio Tinto drillhole M12 (234m at 0.28% MoS2 from 45-279m) but whilst the width of mineralisation was similar (245 metres), the grade was significantly lower (0.20% MoS2). In hindsight and with reference to Figure 2 below, the assay

61

interval in drillhole M12 was heavily influenced by the one sample interval (3m) assaying 3.2% MoS2. If this interval were to be cut to 1%, the assay results of the two holes (M12 and M37) would be similar.

Figure 18: Histogram of Assays for Drillhole M12.

(b) Drill Hole M38

This hole had the twin objective of defining the western contact of the main mineralised zone [objective 1] and to test for the continuity of molybdenum mineralisation intersected in the upper part of drillhole M37 down to a vertical depth of at least 325 metres below surface [objective 2] (see Figure 3).

Drillhole M38 commenced on 12 September 2008 and drilling was plagued by continual mechanical breakdowns and the hard rock formation encountered (silica altered fractured intrusive or “SAFI”).

The hole drilled out of the thick zone of SAFI at approximately 225 metres and has continued to intersect an alternating sequence of silicified and potassic altered quartz monzonite, narrow zones of high grade molybdenite veining at high angles to core axis and clay-carbonate altered quartz monzonite with weak stockwork molybdenite mineralisation.

This hole also confirmed a steep (85[0] ) westerly dip of the structurally controlled mineralisation. The visual apparently high grade intervals (estimated in the percentage range) were disappointingly lower than expected and only averaged in the 0.4% Mo (0.67% MoS2) range as follows (reference to the pictures shown in the ASX release dated 14 October 2008) :

Plate 9: 290m Assay interval 290-291m – 0.20% Mo (0.33% MoS2) and 291-292m 0.44% Mo (0.73% MoS2)

Closer examination of the core now that it has dried out showed that much of the dark grey material thought to have been mostly molybdenite was in fact a combination of fault gouge, smeared out molybdenite, crushed fine pyrite, and a dark grey-black copper mineral (tetrahedrite?) (as evidenced by copper assays up to 0.48%) which makes visual estimation of grade from wet drill core quite misleading.

Overall, the results are still very positive as shown by the following intercepts in Table 12.

Visual inspection and estimates of molybdenite mineralisation from the following intercepts:

358-366m (8m); 381 – 406m (25m); 416-438m (22m); 444-451.75m (EOH) (8m) suggested similar assay results but unfortunately that was not the case, based on the assay results received. Most of what was initially identified as molybdenite is another unknown mineral (graphite?). Petrographic and XRD studies will be carried out during December to determine what this mineral is and whether it has any commercial value or not.

(d) Drill Holes M40, M42

Two holes were planned to be drilled at Site “B” (see Figure 1).

The first hole, which has been completed as drill hole M40 to a total depth of 226.95 metres was designed to test the western contact of the main NW trending mineralised zone and was until the

65

SAFI zone was reached. This hole penetrated clay-sericite-carbonate altered quartz monzonite porphyry with intervals of potassic (secondary biotite) alteration for most of its length. Assay results received to date down to a depth of 45.10 metres have confirmed visual observations of only weak molybdenite mineralisation in this hole.

The second hole, currently being drilled as M42 is designed to test the mineralised zone previously tested by drill holes M30, M14 and M16 (see Figure 5), to get a better indication of the average grade of mineralisation along this section. Samples have yet to be submitted from this hole for assay.

Figure 21: Cross Section through the two proposed holes at Drill Pad “B”

It is Richfield‟s intent to mobilize two new man portable rigs arrive from another drilling contractor in January 2008. One of these rigs will be used to drill a fence of holes along a cross-line situated 200 metres NW from the drill holes M37 and M38. This fence of holes will cross drill pads “D” and “E” on Figure 1 and are designed to test the width and grade of the main mineralised zone 200 metres NW of drill holes M37 and M38. Following the completion of these holes, a JORC-compliant resource for a 400 metre long subset of the NW trending mineralised zone can be estimated as per the first objective of the Phase 1 drilling program. The second rig is proposed to be used to drill exploration holes elsewhere within the Malala deposit to highlight its potential to contain a far greater resource than that currently known.

(e) Drill Holes M39, M41

A smaller, man portable drilling rig (IAR 500) capable of drilling to depths of 250 metres with HQ core size was mobilized from Balikpapan on 13 October 2008 and on 23 October 2008 commenced drilling the first of a series of holes at the top of the main ridge (Plate 1 and Figure 6), at an elevation of approximately 500 metres vertically above the collar of the current hole at Nancy Camp.

Figure 22: Location Plan of the first 4 holes using the man portable rig.

The objective of these first four holes is to test the large molybdenum-in soil anomaly shown on Figure 6 and to extend the strike length of the main NW trending mineralised zone by a further 350 metres to 1,350 metres.

The first hole, M39 has been completed to a total depth of 172.50 metres. Unfortunately this hole was sited to far east and by the time it had reached the base of oxidation at a depth of 102 metres, it

67

had passed through the eastern contact zone and well into highly pyritic Tinombo metasediments (average 5-10% pyrite and weak chalcopyrite (copper) veining.. Assay results received for the first 97 metres confirm low grade molybdenum mineralisation (average 0.035% MoS2) within the oxide zone.

The second hole, M41 is currently at 136.20 m (at 30/11/08) and drilling ahead to a planned total depth of 250 metres. The base of oxidation was reached at a depth of 74 metres and thereafter the hole has been drilling though Tinombo metasediments with abundant quartz veining parallel to foliation and visible molybdenite mineralisation (0.1-0.2% molybdenite). Samples have yet to be submitted to the laboratory for assay.

EXPLORATION POTENTIAL

General Background Summary

The widespread areal distribution (>4km[2] ) of molybdenum mineralisation and alteration demonstrates a high potential for the discovery of a major ore deposit at Malala.

The Exploration Target or Target Mineralisation here comprises a tonnage target range from 105Mt to 115Mt and a grade range from 0.11% MoS2 to 0.15% MoS2.

The reader is cautioned that these “Target Mineralisation Estimates” have not been drilled sufficiently to allow definition according to JORC standards and future exploration may not define them in part or at all.

Subsequent trenching to the drilling campaigns has highlighted the need for a complete reinterpretation of the structures controlling the molybdenum mineralisation at Malala. Trenching in the area of drill hole DDHM 33, for instance, has exposed that probably the mineralisation is steeply dipping to the west. Hence, all drilling has been down dip in this area and many drill metres wasted.

The probability that areas of high molybdenum-in-soil geochemical anomalies, which reflect at depth the steep, westerly-dipping molybdenum mineralisation, have not been previously drilled in the correct orientation is being demonstrated by the current drilling.

This implies that the earlier drilling was poorly executed in these areas and therefore potential for mineralisation being intersected on correct orientations is good. It is believed DDM22, drilled at a 70[0] dip, only tested a 20m section of a 140m wide surface zone of highly anomalous molybdenum geochemistry. Also, on sections 200N and 300N, potential mineralisation occurs at depth as a significant 90m wide molybdenum geochemical anomaly at surface has not been drill-tested (Whitehouse 1982).

On review, drilling should have been on a NE azimuth with relatively shallow declinations. DDHM11, M12 & M13 (average grades 0.24% to 0.29% MoS2,) were the only holes drilled with such azimuths and dips. In Figure 15 which shows a plan of the molybdenum geochemistry, seven areas, totalling 1,102,230m[2] have been marked. These areas have either not been tested or have been inadequately tested by drilling. In particular, a 538,700m[2] area centred on DDHM 2 and 4 remains untested.

A number of drill holes have stopped in mineralisation, e.g. DDHM8, M11, M22, M30 and M32. These promising intersections need deepening so as to evaluate the true length of the mineralised zone. DDHM8 ended in mineralisation which appears to fringe an untested 130m wide zone of anomalous molybdenum geochemistry in Tinombo Formation wall rocks.

The above earlier drilling deficiencies strongly indicate that the Malala deposit still requires an extensive diamond drilling campaign. Good potential exists for a major upgrade in current resources

68

in both tonnage and grade by re-orientation of future drill holes and by using the XRF method for molybdenum assays.

Salient Features

  • Potential mineral deposits may occur at other geochemical anomalies that were identified in 1973 from regional stream work (Plates 7, 8 and 9)

  • Anomaly A (Pb-Zn) covering 15km[2] ; with Pb values up to 14,000ppm in soil samples and located on KP 188.45/2534. Geological setting is apparently mineralisation along a contact zone. Further work including drilling is warranted

  • Anomaly C (Cu-Mo-Pb) covering 5km[2] on KP 188.45/2537. Cu, Mo and Pb „highs‟ up to 800ppm, 8ppm and 800ppm, respectively over a 600m x 1000m zone. More work is necessary

  • Anomaly K (Pb-Mo) covering 10km2; with Mo values up to 11ppm in stream samples and situated on KP 188.45/2533. Geological setting is apparently a contact zone of biotite granite with porphyry. More exploration is warranted (Whitehouse 1982)

  • The current drilling program by the Company confirmed the continuance of the mineralised sheeted vein system to a down-hole depth of 250 metres in hole M37 with „Moly” assay values ranging from 0.19% to 1.69% MoS2

  • There is significant potential for Rhenium to be a valuable by-product from possible future mining operations (subject to further drilling results)

  • Good potential exists for a major upgrade of the historical resources – now termed “Exploration Target”- in both tonnage and grade by re-orientation of future drill holes and by using the XRF method for molybdenum assays. This is anticipated to enable JORC Code Mineral Resource Estimates to be made subject to successful drilling and assay results. Again, the reader is cautioned that future exploration may not define any resources.

PROPOSED EXPLORATION AND BUDGET

It is proposed to initially conduct geological mapping, stream sediment and pan concentrate sampling, reconnaissance level rock chip sampling and ridge, spur and river bank soil sampling across all of the granted KPs held by the Richfield Group.

Follow-up exploration on these results should include trenching across delineated anomalies and ground magnetic and IP surveys to identify new drill targets.

A diamond drilling campaign of 2,500m is planned to test these new targets, confirm historic assay intervals and upgrade geological resources known to date. A budget of $US990,000 for year 1 is proposed with a further $US1,980,000 in year 2.

An estimated exploration budget breakdown is given in Table 13 below.

7.3 Income Statement and Cashflows for the year ended 30 June 2008

It is considered impractical to present proforma financial information in respect to historical financial performance and cash flows of the company prior to 1 July 2008, because the additional structural changes made will give rise to significantly different revenues and cost structures to those experiences historically.

At the time of preparing the historical financial information, the Company had not obtained control of Victory West Pty Ltd. The Company‟s historical financial information has accounted for the company‟s investment in the project and Victory West Pty Ltd by way of a loan.

7.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The historical financial information covers the consolidated entity of Victory West Moly Limited and controlled entities, and Victory West Moly Limited as an individual parent entity.

The significant policies that have been adopted in the preparation of the historical financial information are:

(a) Basis of Preparation

This historical financial information has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 .

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.

118

The historical financial information has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected noncurrent assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

(b) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations

A number of Australian Accounting Standards had been issued or amended and are applicable to the parent and consolidated group but were not yet effective at 30 June 2008. They were not adopted in the preparation of the historical financial information at reporting date.

(c) Principles of Consolidation

The historical consolidated financial information incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of the Company or Parent Entity as at 30 June 2008 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. The Company and its subsidiaries together are referred to as the “consolidated entity” or “group”.

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the company controls another entity.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the individual financial statements of Victory West Moly Limited.

All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated entity, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the parent entity.

Where controlled entities have entered or left the consolidated entity during the year, their operating results have been included/excluded from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased.

If applicable, minority equity interests in the equity and results of the entities that are controlled are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial report.

(d) Income Tax

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

119

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the consolidated entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.

(e) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Overheads are applied on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned on the basis of weighted average costs.

(f) Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Plant and Equipment

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset‟s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the consolidated entity includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset‟s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future consolidated benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including building and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the consolidated entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

The assets‟ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

An asset‟s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset‟s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

120

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings

(e) Leases

A distinction is made between finance leases which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of leased non-current assets, and operating leases under which the lessor effectively retains substantially all such risks and benefits.

Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period.

Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term.

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term.

(f) Financial Instruments

Recognition and Initial Measurement

Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is adopted for financial assets that are delivered within timeframes established by marketplace convention.

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below.

De-Recognition

Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expire. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised as profit or loss.

Classification and Subsequent Measurement

  • i. Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss Financial assets are classified at fair value through profit or loss when they are held for trading for the purpose of short term profit taking, where they are derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or

121

investment strategy. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

ii. Loans and receivables

  • Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

iii. Held-to-maturity investments

  • Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the group‟s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

iv. Available-for-sale financial assets

  • Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated as such or that are not classified in any of the other categories. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.

v. Financial liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

vi. Derivative instruments

Derivative instruments are measured at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are taken to the income statement unless they are designated as hedges.

Victory West Moly Limited and Controlled Entities designate certain derivatives as either

  • (i) Hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or a firm commitment (fair value hedge)

  • (ii) Hedges of highly probably forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).

At the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions is documented.

Assessments, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items, are also documented.

(i) Fair value hedge

Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the income statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedge asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk.

(ii) Cash flow hedge

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is deferred to a hedge reserve in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement.

Amounts accumulated in the hedge reserve in equity are transferred to the income statement in the periods when the hedged item will affect profit or loss.

122

Fair value

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm‟s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.

Impairment

At each reporting date, the group assess whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.

(g) Impairment of Assets

At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset‟s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset‟s carrying value. Any excess of the asset‟s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

(g) Intangibles

Goodwill

Goodwill and goodwill on consolidation are initially recorded at the amount by which the purchase price for a business or for an ownership interest in a controlled entity exceeds the fair value attributed to its net assets at date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in investments in associates. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

(h) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the group‟s entities is measured using the currency of the primary consolidated environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity‟s functional and presentation currency.

Transaction and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

123

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the income statement.

Group Companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group‟s presentation currency are translated as follows:

  • assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date

  • income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period

  • retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group‟s foreign currency translation reserve in the balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which the operation is disposed.

(i) Employee Entitlements

Provision is made for the company‟s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.

(j) Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other shortterm highly liquid investments with original maturities of one month or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.

(k) Revenue

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers.

Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.

Revenue from investment properties is recognised on an accruals basis or straight-line basis in accordance with leases agreements.

Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. Dividends received from associates and joint venture entities are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting.

Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

(l) Borrowing Costs

124

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

(m) Trade and Other Creditors

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Consolidated Entity prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

(n) Contributed Equity

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

(o) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST.

Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

(p) Going Concern

The historical financial information has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business and on the assumption of sufficient funds becoming available for the operations of the consolidated entity.

The basis of adopting the going concern assumption is dependent upon the Victory West Moly Ltd and controlled entities raising additional funds from debt or equity sources, or operations becoming profitable in the future.

(q) Comparative Figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

(r) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The Directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the group.

Key Estimates — Impairment

125

The group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the group that may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. Value-in-use calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates.

7.5 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES

The group‟s principal financial instruments comprise mainly of deposits with banks, receivables, payables and available for sale investments.

The Group manages its exposure to key financial risks, including interest rate and currency risk in accordance with the Group's financial risk management policy. The objective of the policy is to support the delivery of the Group's financial targets whilst protecting future financial security.

Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of the risks identified below.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the members of Richfield Group Limited

Report on the Financial Report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Richfield Group Limited, (the company) which comprises the balance sheet as at 30 June 2008, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies, other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001. This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that compliance with the Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s

judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Electronic Presentation of Audited Financial Report

This auditor’s report relates to the financial report of Richfield Group Limited (the company) for the year ended 30 June 2008 included on the company’s web site. The company’s directors are responsible for the integrity of the company’s web site. We have not been engaged to report on the integrity of the company’s web site.

Independence

In conducting our audit, we complied with applicable independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

Auditor’s Opinion

In our opinion:

  • (a) the financial report of Richfield Group Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

  • i. giving a true and fair view of the company’s and consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2008 and of their performance for the year ended on that date; and

  • ii. complying with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Regulations 2001; and

  • (b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1

Significant uncertainty regarding continuation as a going concern

Without qualification to the audit opinion expressed above, attention is drawn to the following matter. As a result of the matters described in Note 1(r) in the financial report which indicates that the company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the company raising additional funds from debt or equity sources, or operations becoming profitable in the future, there exists a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether it will realize its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

9 RISK FACTORS

As with any share investment, there are risks involved. This section identifies the major areas of risk associated with an investment in Victory West Moly Limited, but should not be taken as an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company and its shareholders are exposed. These risks are both specific to the Company and also relate to the general business and economic environment. Potential investors should read the entire Prospectus and consult their professional advisor before deciding whether to apply for Shares, as they may adversely affect the value of the Company‟s assets and Shares.

The Company can mitigate some of these risks by the use of appropriate safeguards and commercial action but some are outside the control of the Company and cannot be mitigated.

9.1 INVESTMENT RISK

The Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus should be considered speculative. They carry no guarantee as to payment of dividends, return of capital or the market value of the Shares. The prices at which an investor may be able to trade the Shares may be above or below the Offer Price paid for the Shares. While the Directors commend the Offer, prospective investors must make their own assessment of the likely risks and determine whether an investment in Victory West Moly Limited is appropriate to their own circumstances.

9.2 SHARE MARKET

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company‟s quoted securities regardless of the Company‟s operating performance.

Share market conditions are affected by many factors including but not limited to the following:

  • General economic outlook

  • Interest rates and inflation rates

  • Currency fluctuations

  • Mineral price fluctuations

  • Changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors

  • The demand for, and supply of, capital

  • Terrorism or other hostilities

  • Other factors beyond the control of the Company

9.3 CURRENCY RISK

As the Company‟s potential earnings will be largely derived from the sale of mineral commodities, either in processed or concentrate forms, the Company‟s future revenues and cash flows will be impacted by changes in the prices of these commodities. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include current and expected future supply and demand, forward selling by producers, production cost levels in major metal producing centers as well as macroeconomic conditions such as inflation and interest rates.

Furthermore, the international prices of most commodities are denominated in United States dollars while the Company cost base will be in Australian dollars. Consequently changes in the Australian dollar exchange rate will impact on the earnings of the Company. The exchange rate is affected by

133

numerous factors beyond the control of the Company, including interest rates, inflation and the general economic outlook.

9.4 INSURANCE RISKS

The Company intends to adequately insure its operations in accordance with industry practice. However, in certain circumstances, the Company‟s insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the Company.

Insurance of all risks associated with mineral exploration and production is not always available and where available the costs can be prohibitive as such the Directors will use their business judgment to determine what level of cover is appropriate in the circumstances.

9.5 COMMERCIALISATION RISKS

Even if the Company discovers commercial quantities of minerals, there is a risk the Company will not achieve a commercial return. The Company may not be able to transport the minerals at a reasonable cost or may not be able to sell the minerals to customers at a rate which would cover its operating and capital costs. The Company has to receive regulatory and environmental approval to convert its exploration permits into production concessions. While the Directors will take all available actions to ensure the profitability of the operations of the Company, there is a risk that these approvals may not be obtained and that the product may not be able to be commercialised.

9.6

COMPETITION RISK

The industry in which the Company will be involved is subject to domestic and global competition. While the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, which activities or actions may, positively or negatively, affect the operating and financial performance of the Company‟s projects and business.

9.7 NO PROFIT TO DATE

The Company has incurred losses since its inception and it is therefore not possible to evaluate its prospects based on past performance. Since the Company intends to continue investing in its exploration and development program the Directors anticipate making further losses in the foreseeable future.

While the Directors have confidence in the future revenue-earning potential of the Company, there can be no certainty that the Company will achieve or sustain profitability or achieve or sustain positive cash flow from its operating activities.

9.8 FUTURE CAPITAL NEEDS

Further funding of projects may be required by the Company to support its ongoing activities and operations. There can be no assurance that such funding will be available on satisfactory terms or at all. Any inability to obtain funding will adversely affect the business and financial condition of the Company and, consequently, its performance.

134

9.9 ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS

The Company‟s projects are subject to International, Regional and Federal laws and regulations regarding environmental matters in the Australia. Many of the activities and operations of the Company cannot be carried out without prior approval from and compliance with all relevant authorities. The Company intends to conduct its activities in an environmentally responsible manner and in accordance with all applicable laws. However, the Company could be subject to liability due to risks inherent to its activities, such as accidental spills, leakages or other unforeseen circumstances.

9.10 ECONOMIC AND GOVERNMENT RISKS

The future viability of the Company is also dependent on a number of other factors affecting performance of all industries and not just the exploration and mining industries including, but not limited to, the following:

  • General economic conditions in Australia, Indonesia and their major trading partners

  • Changes in Australian or Indonesian Government policies, taxation and other laws, including but not limited to the passing of the new Mineral and Coal Mining Law in Indonesia on 16 December 2008 (please refer to Section 5 and Section 9.13 for comments regarding this change and associated risks with its implementation).

  • The strength of the equity and share markets in Australia and throughout the world, and in particular investor sentiment towards the commodities (resources) sector

  • Movement in, or outlook on, interest rates and inflation rates

  • Natural disasters, social upheaval or war in Indonesia, Australia or the Asia Pacific Region.

9.11 COMMODITY PRICE AND EXCHANGE RATE RISK

As the Company‟s potential earnings will be largely derived front the sale of mineral commodities, either in processed or concentrate form, the Company‟s future revenues and cash flows will be impacted by changes in the prices of these commodities. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include current and expected future supply and demand, forward selling by producers, production cost levels in major metal producing centers as well as macroeconomic conditions such as inflation and interest rates.

Furthermore, the international prices of most commodities are denominated in United States dollars while the Company‟s cost base will be in Australian dollars. Consequently changes in the Australian dollar exchange rate will impact on the earnings of the Company. The exchange rate is affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company, including interest rates, inflation and the general economic outlook.

9.12 RESOURCE ESTIMATES

Resource estimates included in this Prospectus have not been prepared in accordance with the JORC Code and the Company has obtained a waiver from ASX Listing Rule 5.6 in order to prepare these estimates in accordance with company‟s update 11/07.

Resource estimates are expressions of judgment based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates which 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

135

likely to change. This may result in alterations to development and mining plans which may in turn adversely affect the Company‟s operations and the value of its securities.

9.13 COMPLIANCE AND PERMIT MAINTENANCE RISK

The Company has acquired an interest in various mining tenements. Title to these tenements is subject to the Company, as tenement holder, complying with the terms and conditions of each tenement, including any minimum annual expenditure commitments. There are also various licenses associated with the KP Holder Entities including forestry requirements that the Company is undertaking the necessary approval processes. In this respect, the Company has made the appropriate submissions and applications and is awaiting formal approval from the Ministry of Forestry. The company is not aware of any reasons why these licenses will not be granted. There is a risk that if the Company does not comply with the terms and conditions of each tenement, it may lose its interest in the relevant tenement.

The Company has commissioned a legal report, which is set out in this Prospectus and has conducted thorough due diligence regarding legal ownership and rights that comprise the proposed Molybdenum Project. The Company is not aware of any circumstances that have occurred that may affect the Company‟s legal rights and ability to conduct and develop the Molybdenum Project. The Company‟s interest in the tenements has been issued under the authority of the Toli Toli Regency for a two year exploration period, which is recognised and supported by the Indonesian Central Government.

As mentioned in the legal report (refer to Section 5 of this prospectus) on 16 December 2008 the Parliament of the Republic of Indonesia passed a new Mining Law, the Mineral and Coal Mining Law (“new mining law”). Up until this time, there were two systems of title and it could not be guaranteed that conflicts of the two systems would not occur until resolved by the Indonesian Government. At the date of this prospectus, there is a current lack of certainty as to the status of KP‟s and the transition between the current system(s) and the regime under the new mining law. There are currently no savings or transitional provisions in respect of KP‟s and KP‟s are not mentioned in the new mining law. Implementation regulations are to be issued, which may help provide some clarity to the uncertainties surrounding the new mining laws however, it is unknown when or if such regulations will clarify all uncertainties and ambiguities.

The Company has developed appropriate policies and practices to mitigate the risk that the terms and conditions attaching to all of the assets it has acquired an interest in will not be complied with.

9.14 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT CONSTRAINTS

The Company‟s exploration and appraisal programs will, in general, be subject to approval by government authorities. Development of any molybdenum resources will be dependent on the project meeting environmental guidelines and gaining approvals by governmental bodies.

9.15 ASX LISTING RULES RE-COMPLIANCE

Shareholders approved the change in nature and scale of activities of the Company at the Annual General Meeting convened on 26 November 2008. As such, the Company was suspended by the ASX until it has re-complied with Chapters 1 & 2 of the ASX Listing Rules.

Although the company is taking the appropriate measures to ensure re-compliance with these ASX Listing Rules, Shareholders should be aware that some factors which may impact the Company‟s ability to re-comply with these rules are outside of the control of the Company.

136

9.16 UNFORESEEN EXPENDITURE

Expenditure may need to be incurred that has not been taken into account in the preparation of this Prospectus. Although the Company is not aware of any such additional expenditure requirements, if such expenditure is subsequently incurred, this may adversely affect the expenditure proposals and value of the Company.

137

  • (h) The New Share Options carry no right (without exercising the New Share Options) to participate in any rights issue which may be offered by the company to its shareholders after the date of the issue of the New Share Options.

The number of additional shares is the number of shares which would have been issued to it under that bonus issue ("bonus shares") if on the date on which entitlements were calculated it had been registered as the holder of the number of shares which it would have been registered as holder if immediately before that date it had exercised its Vendor Options.

  • (k) In the event of any reconstruction (including consolidation, subdivision, reduction, cancellation or return) of the issued capital of the Company before the expiry of any Vendor Options, all rights of the option holder will be reconstructed (as appropriate) in accordance with the Listing Rules applying to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.

  • (l) Shares allotted pursuant to the exercise of the Vendor Options will rank equally with the then issued shares of the Company.

  • (n) Other than as referred to above, an Option does not confer the right to a change in Exercise Price, or a change to the number of underlying securities over which it can be exercised.
