Saudi Arabia Investment Update

Fast Facts - February 2013

Further to the update regarding progress on the Saudi Arabian transaction in the Company’s quarterly report of corporate activity on 31 January 2013, the Directors of Lawson Gold Limited (ASX: LSN or Company) wish to advise that a number of conditions precedent to the transaction completing were not met and Mawarid Investments Limited have now advised that they do not wish to pursue the equity joint venture contemplated by the announcements of 2 April and 8 August 2012, at the present time. The Directors understand that Mawarid will seek to secure long term tenure of their exploration licences, which currently expire in July – September 2013, before revisiting options for commercial exploitation.

This is clearly a significant disappointment for the Company. Having spent nearly two years and a significant amount of money in pursuing the opportunity, we had hoped for, and expected success. The independent report by Coffey Mining (available on the Company’s website) clearly indicates that the opportunity to participate in the exploration of the Saudi licences was worth pursuing diligently.

The Directors remain in cordial discussions with the management of Mawarid Investments Limited and the parties will continue to exchange ideas. The Directors are however, unable at this stage to say whether a transaction can be revived in the future. Lawson is entitled to reimbursement of some costs incurred in pursuing the Saudi transaction and will make every effort to realise these promptly.
