Overview / South East Asia Energy Resources Pte Ltd

SEAE is a Singapore company which currently holds, and has the ability to secure further, interests in a number of Indonesian thermal and coking coal projects. It currently has an interest in the Penajam East thermal coal project and has identified a number of additional projects for future review. SEAE is also a party to certain service contracts which will provide the necessary skills to acquire, explore, develop and mine Indonesian coal assets.

The acquisition is consistent with SEAE’s current stated business objectives of acquiring and developing resources projects in South East Asia.

SEAE is highly experienced in the identification of high quality resource assets in both Indonesia and Australia, and have a well-connected team of local based and expatriate engineers and geologists who work with local and regional mine concession owners on a regular basis. Upon completion, SEAE’s team will combine with SEAE’s management team to identify potential mineral, thermal and coking coal assets, review existing assets, and conduct full asset due diligence (legal and technical) with an aim of securing significant JORC Code compliant resources for SEAE.

The team has been working together for the last seven years with a focus in Indonesia, Australia and Mongolia. For the past three years they have focused on identifying projects in Indonesia.

SEAE has a mining services agreement with United Asia Energy ( UAE ) in Singapore. Under the terms of the agreement between PT1 (defined below) and SEAE, UAE may nominate the Indonesian party to conduct mining services with respect to the conduct of mining activities in the concessions.

The acquisition was satisfied by 110 million performance shares and 33 million SEAE options and a cash payment of $750,000, together with a further 220 million fully paid ordinary shares should future performance hurdles be met. Agreed milestones are in place for full payment of consideration as announced by the Company on 24 December 2012.

Penajam East Project

The Penajam East coal project consists of two concessions located in the Penajam Regency of East Kalimantan, Indonesia. The project is within the Kutai Basin and includes a haul road and port facilities. The Penajam East project has been subject to previous mining and exploration which should advance the development process however, this information has not been obtained for review by SEAE.

Highlights of the Penajam East project include the following:

• Substantial concession areas of 185.13ha, with mining approval over the entire concession areas with granting of Production Operation IUP’s.

• 5 mining pits already open with overburden removed, and available for recommissioning leading to reduced start-up costs and time.

• Coal outcrop/exposed coal only found in ex mining activities. Coal thickness ranges between 0.45m and 1.1m.

• Additional opportunities for further exploration.

• Both concessions share the same haul road and jetty infrastructure.

• Rights to use haul road and jetty/port services granted to PT1, or a party nominated by PT1;

• Short transportation with distance to the jetty only 8 – 10 kms.

• Low progressive entry for entry in imminent mining concessions.

• Availability of third party coal in the immediate region identified for blending.

• Significant growth opportunities with minimal future investment.

• Future growth potential to take-over surrounding concessions.

The development/production strategy is to begin operations in concession 1 in the most recently mined open pit, where the coal seam is exposed. Coal produced from concession is expected to have medium to high sulphur. The Company proposes to blend this coal with appropriate medium grade, low sulphur coal to reduce the project’s sulphur content to produce medium grade coal with less than >1% sulphur suitable for exporting.

Following initial production, stage 2 of production will involve further exploration of the concession, in particular concession 2. Further drilling and exploration will continue throughout both concessions to look for additional mining opportunities.

The concessions are currently owned by cooperatives of local landowners, who have entered into exclusive coal sales contracts with a local special purpose Indonesian PT company ( PT1 ), with rights to reject coal of less than agreed specifications. PT1 has entered into an exclusive coal sales contract with SEAE for the sale of all coal from the concessions.

Management Committees, consisting of representatives of SEAE, PT1 and the respective concession holders, will give directions to the concession holders with respect to exploration and mining of coal, including the party to be appointed to undertake mining activities.

The haul road and jetty to service both concessions is owned by one of the concession holders. PT1 has rights to use the haul road and jetty services, or nominate a third party to use such services.

Malala Molybdenum Project, Sulawesi, Indonesia

The Malala Project is located in the Toli Toli Regency of Central Sulawesi Province, Indonesia, approximately 150km to the north of Palu (Figure 1). The project comprises five IUP concessions: PT Inti Cemerlang, PT Promistis, PT Era Moreco, PT Sembilan Sumber Mas & PT Indo Surya. The total area forming the Malala Project is in excess of 240km2 (Figure 2) spread across the five concessions all of which are located within 15km of the coast.

Since acquisition, SEAE has worked diligently at compiling and reviewing the historical data and reinitiating the exploration process. The majority of work has targeted Anomaly B, the key area of Rio Tinto/Santos exploration efforts in the 1970’s and 1980’s. Rio Tinto had defined a non-JORC compliant resource at Anomaly B which is the basis of SEAE’s exploration target of 105-115Mt @ 660-900ppm Mo[1] . In FY2009, SEAE began the task of proving up this initial exploration target, with this work continuing throughout FY2010. The Company has significantly advanced its understanding of the Anomaly B prospect area, with detailed trenching and geophysical surveying making large contributions to this improved understanding.

1 In accordance with Clause 18 of the JORC Code, it is important to note that no JORC Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves have been established on these tenements and any current assessment remains subject to ongoing exploration work and drilling. The current interpretation remains preliminary and is based on exploration, evaluation and resource definition work performed by Rio Tinto, Santos and SEAE.

* JORC Exploration Targets

It is common practice for a company to comment on and discuss its exploration in terms of target size and type. The information in this announcement relating to exploration targets should not be misunderstood or misconstrued as an estimate of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves. Hence the terms Resource(s) or Reserves(s) have not been used in this context. The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, since there has been insufficient work completed to define them beyond exploration targets and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. In accordance with Clause 18 of the JORC Code, it is important to note that no JORC Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves have been established on these tenements and any current assessment remains subject to ongoing exploration work and drilling. The current interpretation remains preliminary and is based on exploration, evaluation and resource definition work performed by previous owners.
