ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

15 October 2015

Bonnie Vale Mineral Resource Modelling Commenced Following Further High Grade Intercepts

Focus Minerals Ltd. (“Focus” or “the Company”) is pleased to report the exploration assay results for its recently completed drilling at Coolgardie. Focus’ Interim CEO, Wanghong Yang, is pleased to announce that “following receipt of these most recent high grade results at Bonnie Vale, including the identification of a new mineralised reef, Focus is progressing Mineral Resource modelling for Bonnie Vale and expects to release a Maiden Resource in November.”

Highlight Intersections from Recent Bonnie Vale Drilling*

2.0m @ 17.52 g/t Au from 134m in BONC090 2.0m @ 6.40 g/t Au from 115m in BONC103 3.0m @ 11.64 g/t Au from 102m in BONC110 4.0m @ 14.31 g/t Au from 117m in BONC114

*Other significant intersections are presented in Table A below

The most recent Coolgardie campaign included a total of 51 RC holes for 9,470m across several targets close to Focus’ Three Mile Hill Processing Plant (Figure 1 shows the target locations).

Bonnie Vale

35 RC holes were drilled at Bonnie Vale for 6,138 m (Figure 2). The program was designed to test the extension and continuity of the high grade quartz reefs (See the 2014 ASX releases of July 30, October 9 and the 2015 ASX releases of January 21 and July 24) and to confirm the existence of additional high grade gold mineralisation in the area. Some infill holes were also drilled to enable Mineral Resource definition work to commence.

Several holes in the most recent drilling intersected high grade gold mineralisation, including holes BONC090 and BONC114, which returned high-grade gold mineralisation of 2m @ 17.52g/t Au from 134m and 4m @ 14.31g/t Au from 117m, respectively. This high grade gold mineralisation is particularly interesting as it is separate from the Main Quartz Reef and Focus believes it is an extension of the historically mined Westralia Lower Quartz Reef.

Westralia Lower Reef is located about 500m NW of the Main Quartz Reef and the mineralisation is controlled by a north-south structure. Focus believes this area has strong potential as limited exploration has been conducted in this area over the past 30 years, with most of historic drilling limited to 60m in depth. Further drilling in the area has been planned.

The drilling at Bonnie Vale’s Main Quartz Reef has extended the known gold mineralisation along strike and up dip (Figures 3-5).

The Company is very pleased with the results at Bonnie Vale and a maiden Mineral Resource is expected to be released in early November.

Bayleys Extension

The Bayleys style of mineralisation remains one of the most important mineralisation types in Coolgardie area; Bayleys UG produced 289,000oz @ 16.1g/t Au. Further review of the historic drilling and production data indicates that there is still good potential to locate additional high grade gold mineralisation at depth under the existing historic mining area and along the strike of Bayleys mineralisation trend. In the most recent campaign, 6 RC holes were completed for 1,476m. The best results include 1m @ 4.58g/t from 225m in BSEC004, 4m @ 2.06g/t from 124m and 6m @ 1.33g/t from 137m in BSEC002 (Table A).

The wide range of gold mineralisation intercepted in BSEC002 indicates the Bayleys style mineralisation continues to extend to the south, so further drilling is being planned to further explore the Bayleys SE extension.

Future Coolgardie Exploration

The Company is currently conducting further drilling in the Coolgardie area. As well as following up gold mineralisation anomaly areas delineated in the regional exploration program, the Company intends to target its future efforts on the Tindals and Bayleys areas.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections)

Coolgardie
Gold Project
This report relates to results for Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling of Focus
Minerals Coolgardie area.
RC percussion drill chips were collected through a cyclone and cone splitter.
Samples were collected on a 1m basis. In total 51 RC holes were drilled for
9,470 meters.
RC chips were passed through a cone splitter to achieve a sample weight of
approximately 3kg. The splitter was levelled at the beginning of each hole
using a bullseye level.
At the assay laboratory all samples were oven dried and weighed. Samples in
excess of 3kg in weight were riffle split to achieve a maximum 3kg sample
weight before being pulverized to 85% passing 75µm.
The samples were then prepared for fire assay.
When visible gold was observed in RC chips, this sample was then flagged by
the supervising geologist for the benefit of the laboratory.
Drilling
techniques
All RC drilling was completed using a face sampling hammer. All holes were
surveyed using DGPS to obtain the coordinates (MGA94) upon completion of
drilling. Selected holes are surveyed with azimuth and dip using a north-
seeking gyroscope.
Drill
sample
recovery
Sample recovery was recorded by a visual estimate during the logging
process.
All samples were drilled dry whenever possible to maximize recovery, with
water injection on the outside return to minimise dust.
Study of sample recovery versus gold grade does not indicate a bias in the
gold grade caused by any drop in sample recovery.
Logging All RC samples were geologically logged to record weathering, regolith, rock
type, colour, alteration, mineralisation, structure and texture and any other
notable features that are present.
The logging information was recorded into acQuire format using a Toughbook
notepad and then transferred into the company’s drilling database once the log
was complete.
Logging was qualitative, however the geologists often recorded quantitative
mineral percentage ranges for the sulphide minerals present.
Samples from RC holes were archived in standard 20m plastic chip trays.
The entire length of all holes are logged.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and sample
preparation
RC samples were cone split to a nominal 2.5kg to 3kg sample weight. The
drilling method was designed to maximise sample recovery and delivery of a
clean, representative sample into the calico bag.
Where possible all RC samples were drilled dry to maximise recovery. The use
of a booster and auxiliary compressor provide dry sample for depths below the
water table.
Sample condition was recorded (wet, dry or damp) at the time of sampling and
recorded in the database.
The samples were collected in a pre-numbered calico bag bearing a unique
sample ID.

7

==> picture [59 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

Samples were crushed to 75µm at the laboratory and riffle split (if required) to
a maximum 3kg sample weight.
Gold analysis was determined by a 50g fire assay with an AAS Finish.
The assay laboratories’ sample preparation procedures follow industry best
practice, with techniques and practices that are appropriate for this style of
mineralisation.
Pulp duplicates were taken at the pulverising stage and selective repeats
conducted at the laboratories’ discretion.
FML inserts 2 standards and takes 4 duplicates for every 100 samples.
Field duplicates were collected from the cone splitter on the rig for RC samples
at a frequency of one duplicate every 20 samples, excluding the 100th sample
as this was a standard.
Regular reviews of the sampling were carried out by the supervising geologist
and senior field staff, to ensure all procedures were followed and best industry
practice carried out.
The sample sizes were considered to be appropriate for the type, style and
consistency of mineralisationencountered during this phase ofexploration.
The assay method and laboratory procedures were appropriate for this style of
mineralisation. The fire assay technique was designed to measure total gold in
the sample.
Quality of
assay data
and
laboratory
tests
No geophysical tools, spectrometers or handheld XRF instruments were used.
The QA/QC process described above was sufficient to establish acceptable
levels of accuracy and precision.
All results from assay standards and duplicates were scrutinised to ensure
they fell within acceptable tolerances.
Significant intervals were visually inspected by company geologists to correlate
assay results to logged mineralisation. Consultants were not used for this
process.
Verification
of sampling
and assaying
Normally if old historic drilling was present, twinned holes are occasionally
drilled to test the veracity of historic assay data; however no twinned holes
were drilled during this program.
Primary data is sent in digital format to the company’s Database Administrator
(DBA) as often as was practicable. The DBA imports the data into an acQuire
database, with assay results merged into the database upon receipt from the
laboratory.
Once loaded, data was extracted for verification by the geologist in charge of
the project.
No adjustments were made to any current or historic data. If data could not be
validated to a reasonable level of certainty it was not used in any resource
estimations.
RC drill collars were surveyed after completion, using a DGPS instrument.
Down-hole surveys were completed using a north-seeking gyroscope operated
by a qualified contractor.
Location of
data points
All coordinates and bearings use the MGA94 Zone 51 grid system.
RC drilling locations were determined by hand‐held GPS, with an accuracy of
5m in Northing and Easting. After finishing the drilling RC holes locations were
picked up by DGPS with accuracy of 20cm.
Drillspacing across the Coolgardie prospectsvaried depending onthe

exploration stage that the drill target currently existed.
Data spacing
and
distribution
The data spacing of the drilling across Focus’s prospects during this campaign
was not considered sufficient to be used in a Mineral Resource; the majority of
drilling was completed to establish continuity of mineralisation and alteration at
depth.
Intercepted mineralisation will be digitized and incorporated into existing
models or to create new models as required.
Additional infill drilling would be required before this mineralisation can be used
in the estimation of a Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve.
Sample compositing has not been applied to the reporting of exploration
results.
Drilling was designed based on known geological models, field mapping,
verified historical data and cross-sectional interpretation.
Drill holes oriented at right angles to strike of deposit, with dip optimised for
drill capabilities and the dip of the ore body.
Orientation of
data in
relation to
geological
structure
No orientation and sampling bias has been recognised in the drilling data to
date.
Sample
security
All samples were reconciled against the sample submission with any
omissions or variations reported to FML.
All samples were bagged in a tied numbered calico bag, grouped into green
plastic bags. The bags were placed into cages with a sample submission sheet
and delivered directly from site to the Kalgoorlie laboratories by FML personnel
on a daily basis.
Audits or
reviews
A review of sampling techniques was carried out by Roredata Pty Ltd in late
2013 as part of a database amalgamation project. Their only recommendation
was to change the QA/QC intervals to bring them into line with the FML
Laverton system, which uses the same frequency of standards and duplicates
but has them inserted at different points within the numbering sequence.

Francis mined a small trial pit in 1997 which reconciled poorly between grade
control and milling.
At Bayleys extension the narrow shafts were initially mined at Hanover from
1897-1906, modern exploration work was done by Coolgardie Gold NL in 1990s.
There are two small historic mined open pits at New Australasian but little is
known about the history. Recent drilling were mainly conducted by Focus
Minerals
Geology Bonnie Vale mineralisation is historically contained within large (300m strike
length) planar reef structures on or near the contact of the Bonnie Vale tonalite
and an overlying ultramafic unit. FML drilling is investigating potential extensions
to these structures at depth and along strike.
The Brilliant mineralisation is mainly associated with altered porphyries on or
near sheared mafic/ ultramafic contacts. Sulphide rich quartz vein stockworks
are common.
The mineralisation at Lord Bob is related to an anastomosing array of quartz
veins hosted in an Archean granite.
At Bayleys, the mineralisation appears to be associated with the quartz, shale
and felsic units along lithological contacts. there are two parallel lodes, Bayleys
and Prices The Prices and Bayleys underground mines produced over 300,000
ounces along a strike length of 1.1km throughout the 20th century
The New Australasian prospect is hosted within the pillowed Lindsays Basalt
and is associated with a NNE trending shear and associated intrusive
porphyries. The deposit site lies on the southern and NE-trending limb of a
regional E-W D2 anticline that forms a significant geological feature around the
Tindalsmining block.

Data
aggregation
methods
Mineralised intersections are reported at a 1.00g/t Au cut-off with a minimum
reporting width of 1m, reported as length-weighted average grades.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
Holes were drilled orthogonal to mineralisation as much as possible, however
the exact relationship between intercept width and true width cannot be
estimated exactly in all cases.
Diagrams Accurate collar plans are included in this announcement. Representative cross
sections are included to depict the attitude and style of mineralised structures.
Balanced
reporting
Drilling results are reported in a balanced reporting style. The ASX
announcement shows actual locations of holes drilled, and representative
sections as appropriate.
Holes shown on the collar location plan which are not reported in the table of
significant intercepts did not intersect reportable mineralisation.
Other
substantive
exploration
data
There is no other material exploration data to report at this time.
Further work The company is designing drilling program to follow up results from Bonnie Vale,
Bayleys extension
