By this Prospectus, the Company offers for subscription approximately 203,391,744 new Options pursuant to a non-renounceable entitlement issue to Shareholders of one (1) new Option for every four (4) Shares held at the Record Date at an issue price of $0.003 per Option.

Your completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form and cheque must reach the Company’s share registry at the address set out on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form by no later than 5:00pm WST on the Closing Date.

Payment by BPAY®

For payment by BPAY®, please follow the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You can only make a payment via BPAY® if you are the holder of an account with an Australian financial institution that supports BPAY® transactions. Please note that should you choose to pay by BPAY®:

  • (a) you do not need to submit the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to have made the declarations on that Entitlement and Acceptance Form; and

  • (b) if you do not pay for your Entitlement in full, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of Options which is covered in full by your application monies.

You should be aware that your financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regards to electronic payment and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment.

4.4

Overseas shareholders

Please contact the Company’s share registry, Advanced Share Registry, via email [email protected] or telephone on +618 9389 8033 for further instructions regarding remitting application funds from overseas.

4.5

Minimum subscription

There is no minimum subscription for the Entitlement Offer.

4.6

Shortfall Offer

Any Entitlement not taken up pursuant to the Entitlement Offer will form the Shortfall Offer.

The Shortfall Offer is a separate offer made pursuant to this Prospectus and will remain open for up to three months following the Closing Date. The issue price for each Option to be issued under the Shortfall Offer shall be $0.003, being the price at which Options have been offered under the Entitlement Offer.

The Directors reserve the right to issue Shortfall Options at their absolute discretion.

4.7

Potential impact of offer on control of the Company

Shareholders should note that if they do not participate in the Entitlement Offer, their holdings are likely to be diluted by up to approximately 20.0% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus) if the Options are exercised into Shares. Examples of how the dilution may impact Shareholders are set out in the table below:

Shareholder 5 100,000 0.01% 25,000 100,000 0.01%

Notes:

1. The dilutionary effect shown in the table is based on the assumption that all Entitlements are taken up under the Entitlement Offer or the Shortfall Offer and are subsequently exercised. In the event that fewer Options are issued, the dilutionary effect for each Shareholder not accepting their Entitlement will be less than as shown above.

The maximum number of Options which will be issued pursuant to the Entitlement Offer is 203,391,744. This equates to approximately 20% of all the issued securities in the Company following completion of the Offer, assuming all Entitlements are taken up and upon subsequent exercise of the Options.

4.8 ASX Listing

Application for Official Quotation by ASX of the Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus will be made within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus. If ASX does not grant Official Quotation of the Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus before the expiration of 3 months after the date of issue of the Prospectus, (or such period as modified by the ASIC), the Company will not issue any Options and will repay all application monies for the Options within the time prescribed under the Corporations Act, without interest.

The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation to the Options is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Options now offered for subscription.

4.9 Issue of Options

Options issued pursuant to the Offer will be allotted in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus.

Options issued pursuant to the Shortfall Offer will be allotted on a progressive basis. Where the number of Options issued is less than the number applied for, or where no allotment is made, surplus application monies will be refunded without any interest to the Applicant as soon as practicable after the closing date of the Shortfall Offer.

Pending the issue of the Options or payment of refunds pursuant to this Prospectus, all application monies will be held by the Company on trust for the Applicants in a separate bank account as required by the Corporations Act. The Company, however, will be entitled to retain all interest that accrues on the bank account and each Applicant waives the right to claim interest.

Holding statements for Options issued under the Entitlement Offer will be mailed in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus and for Shortfall Options issued under the Shortfall Offer as soon as practicable after their issue.

Disclosures for Singapore

This document and any other materials relating to the Options have not been, and will not be, lodged or registered as a prospectus in Singapore with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Accordingly, this document and any other document or materials in connection with the offer or sale, or invitation for subscription or purchase, of Options may not be issued, circulated or distributed, nor may these securities be offered or sold, or be made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase, whether directly or indirectly, to persons in Singapore except pursuant to and in accordance with exemptions in Subdivision (4) Division 1, Part XIII of the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore (the "SFA"), or as otherwise pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of any other applicable provisions of the SFA.

4.12 Currency Risk

The Offers may involve a currency exchange risk. The currency in which the Options are denominated is Australian dollars. The value of the Options will go up and down according to changes in the exchange rate between that currency and currencies in foreign jurisdictions. These changes may be significant.

4.13

Taxation Implications

The Directors do not consider that it is appropriate to give Applicants advice regarding the taxation consequences of applying for Options under this Prospectus, as it is not possible to provide a comprehensive summary of the possible taxation consequences. The Company, its advisers and officers, do not accept any responsibility or liability for any taxation consequences to Applicants. Potential Applicants should, therefore, consult their own professional tax adviser in connection with the taxation implications of the Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus.

4.14 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company will not be issuing option certificates. The Company is a participant in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.

Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Options allotted to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

4.15

Privacy

If you complete an application for Options, you will be providing personal information to the Company (directly or by the Company’s share registry). The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your application, service your needs as a holder of equity securities in the Company, facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a security holder and carry out administration.

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the Company’s share registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. Please contact the Company or its share registry if you wish to do so at the relevant contact numbers set out in this Prospectus.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the application for Options, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.

The dividend shall be payable on all shares in accordance with the Corporations Act.

The Directors may from time to time pay to the Shareholders any interim dividends as they may determine. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Directors may set aside out of the profits of the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be applied at the discretion of the Directors, for any purpose for which the profits of the Company may be properly applied.

Subject to the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Company may, by resolution of the Directors, implement a dividend reinvestment plan on such terms and conditions as the Directors think fit and which provides for any dividend which the Directors may declare from time to time payable on Shares which are participating Shares in the dividend reinvestment plan, less any amount which the Company shall either pursuant to the Constitution or any law be entitled or obliged 16 to retain, be applied by the Company to the payment of the subscription price of Shares.

(d) Winding-Up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, divide among the shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the shareholders or different classes of shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no shareholder is compelled to accept any shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

Where an order is made for the winding up of the Company or it is resolved by special resolution to wind up the Company, then on a distribution of assets to members, shares classified by ASX as restricted securities and which are subject to escrow restrictions at the time of the commencement of the winding up shall rank in priority after all other shares.

(e) Shareholder liability

As the Shares issued on conversion of the Options will be fully paid shares, they will not be subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(f) Transfer of Shares

Generally, shares in the Company are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act or the Listing Rules.

17

`

(g) Changes to Capital Structure

The Company may by ordinary resolution and subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules:

  • (i) increase its share capital by the issue of new shares of such amount as is specified in a resolution;

  • (ii) consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into shares of larger amounts than its existing shares;

  • (iii) sub-divide all or any of its shares into shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the Constitution, but so that in the sub-division the proportion between the amount paid and the amount (if any) unpaid on each such share of a smaller amount is the same as it was in the case of the share from which the share of a smaller amount is derived; and

  • (iv) cancel shares that, at the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person or have been forfeited and reduce its share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled.

(h) Variation of Rights

Pursuant to Section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of 17 the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(i)

Alteration of Constitution

In accordance with the Corporations Act, the Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. In addition at least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

7. RISK FACTORS

7.1 Introduction

The Options offered under this Prospectus are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors to consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and to consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Options pursuant to this Prospectus.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are other general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The risks identified in this section, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the securities.

The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

7.2 Risks Specific to the Company

Potential for significant dilution

Upon implementation of the Entitlement Offer, assuming all Entitlements are accepted, and upon subsequent exercise of the Options, the number of Shares in the Company will increase from 813,566,975 to 1,016,958,719. This means that each Share will represent a significantly lower proportion of the ownership of the Company.

It is not possible to predict what the value of the Company or a Share will be following the completion of the Offers and the Directors do not make any representation as to such matters.

The last trading price of Shares on ASX prior to this prospectus being lodged of $0.015 is not a reliable indicator as to the potential trading price of shares after implementation of the Entitlement Offer.

Additional Requirements for Capital

The Company’s activities will require substantial expenditures. There can be no guarantees that the funds raised through the Offer will be sufficient to successfully achieve all the objectives of the Company’s overall business strategy. If the Company is unable to use debt or equity to fund expansion after the substantial exhaustion of the net proceeds of the Offer there can be no assurances that the Company will have sufficient capital resources for that purpose, or other purposes, or that it will be able to obtain additional resources on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to security holders and any debt financing if available may involve restrictive covenants, which limit the Company’s operations and business strategy. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as required, it may have to reduce the scope of its operations and scale back its exploration programmes as the case may be.

Security holders should note that the reviewed Financial Report of the Company for the period ended 31 December 2015 was prepared on a going concern basis. However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and to meet planned and committed expenditure requirements is subject to the Company successfully exploiting the investments and mining projects owned by the Company and/or the raising of further equity and/or loan capital. In the event that the Company is not successful in raising further funds, the realisable value of the entity’s non-current assets may be significantly less than their current carrying values and the Company may not be able to continue in its present form.

The Company’s failure to raise capital, if and when needed, could delay or suspend the Company’s business strategy and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s activities.

19

`

Exploration Success

The future profitability of the Company and the value of its securities are directly related to the results of exploration. The exploration tenements held by the Company are at various stages of exploration, and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are high-risk undertakings.

There can be no assurance that exploration of the Company’s tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic resource. Even if an apparently viable resource is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited. In addition, the resources may become depleted, resulting in a reduction of the value of those tenements.

The exploration costs of the Company are based on certain assumptions with respect to the method and timing of exploration. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the actual costs may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the cost estimates and the underlying assumptions will be realised in practice, which may materially and adversely affect the Company’s viability.

Reliance on Key Management

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially on its senior management and its key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

Further risks specific to the Company

The current and future operations of the Company, including exploration, appraisal and production activities, may be affected by a range of factors, including:

  • (a) geological conditions;

  • (a) alteration to exploration and production programmes and budgets;

  • (b) unanticipated operational and technical difficulties;

  • (c) mechanical failure of operating plant and equipment, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and other force majeure events;

  • (d) unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment;

  • (e) prevention or restriction of access by reason of political unrest, outbreak of hostilities or inability to obtain consents or approvals (including access agreements entered into with Native Title claimants); and

  • (f) uninsured losses or liabilities.

7.3 General Risks

Economic Risks

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

Further, 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 such as:

20

`

  • general economic outlook;

  • interest rates and inflation rates;

  • currency fluctuations;

  • changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • terrorism or other hostilities.

Share Market Conditions

There are general risks associated with any investment in the share market. The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company.

Operating Risks

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining; operational and technical difficulties encountered in extraction; difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment; mechanical failure or plant breakdown; unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs; adverse weather conditions; industrial and environmental accidents; industrial disputes; and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

Environmental Risks

The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to State and Federal laws and regulation concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and extraction operations, the Company’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. It is the Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.

Title Risks and Native Title

Interests in tenements in Australia are governed by the respective State legislation and are evidenced by the granting of licences or leases. Each licence or lease is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose title to or its interest in tenements if licence conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet expenditure commitments.

It is also possible that, in relation to tenements which the Company has an interest in, or will in the future acquire such an interest, there may be areas over which legitimate common law native title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If native title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to tenements (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected. The Directors will closely monitor the potential effect of native title claims involving tenements in which the Company has or may have an interest.

21

`

Taxation

The acquisition and disposal of securities will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring securities from a taxation viewpoint and generally.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of subscribing for Options under this Prospectus.

7.4

Investment Speculative

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the securities offered under this Prospectus. Therefore, the Options to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those securities.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Options pursuant to this Prospectus.

8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

8.1 Continuous Disclosure Obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in Section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of Section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company’s securities.

This Prospectus is a “transaction specific prospectus”. In general terms “transaction specific prospectuses” are only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on the Company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the 3 months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in Section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

  • (i) the financial statements of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2015 being the last financial statements for a financial year, of the Company lodged with the ASIC before the issue of this Prospectus;

  • (ii) any half year financial statements of the Company lodged with ASIC since the lodgement of the last financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015 lodged with ASIC before the issue of this Prospectus; and

  • (iii) any documents used to notify ASX of information relating to the Company in the period from lodgement of the financial statements referred to in paragraph (i) above until the issue of the Prospectus in accordance with the Listing Rules as referred to in Section 674(1) of the Corporations Act.

Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal office hours.

8.8 Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.

8.9 Electronic Prospectus

If you have received this Prospectus as an electronic Prospectus, please ensure that you have received the entire Prospectus accompanied by the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. If you have not, please phone the Company and the Company will send you, for free, either a hard copy or a further electronic copy of the Prospectus, or both. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy of this Prospectus from the company announcements platform at www.asx.com.au.

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Entitlement and Acceptance Form or a Shortfall Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or replacement prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.
