Quarterly Activities Report – March 2016

HIGHLIGHTS

Plavica Au-Ag-Cu Project

  • The extensional drilling program resumed at Plavica during the quarter ended 31 March 2016 ( Quarter ) following the end of winter. A total of 3 core holes were drilled for a total of 593.2m. Drilling is ongoing at Plavica and the Company plans to re-do the inferred resource in the middle of 2016.

  • Results were returned from the two outstanding holes drilled at the end of 2015, drilled at the eastern end of Plavica. Results were encouraging and included:

  • PNDD071: 46m @ 1.10 g/t Au & 38.8 g/t Ag from 17m.

EXPLORATION & DEVELOPMENT PROGRESS DURING THE QUARTER

REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA

PLAVICA HIGH SULPHIDATION EPITHERMAL GOLD-COPPER-SILVER PROJECT (Figures 1 & 2)

Following the granting of the 30 year Exploitation Licence at Plavica in May 2015, drilling since then has focussed on extending and better understanding the previously known mineralisation at both the Plavica and Maricanski Rid prospects. Following the winter break, drilling has resumed at both these prospects with the aim of re-doing the Inferred Resource at Plavica and completing a maiden Inferred Resource at Maricanski Rid. Drilling is on track with one core rig and one RC rig currently in operation.

Drilling resumed in the last week of March and therefore only 3 holes were drilled during the Quarter for 593.2m of HQ drill core. Results from these holes are pending. In addition, results have also been returned for two holes drilled last Quarter on the Plavica prospect that had not been previously reported. These holes are PNDD070 and PNDD071and include the following:

  • PNDD070: 19m @ 1.06 g/t Au & 87.7 g/t Ag from 28m.

  • PNDD070: 8m @ 1.28 g/t Au & 42.3 g/t Ag from 99m.

  • PNDD071: 13m @ 0.97 g/t Au & 43.9 g/t Ag from 0m.

  • PNDD071: 46m @ 1.10 g/t Au & 38.8 g/t Ag from 17m.

All intersections listed above are in oxide material. All the afore-mentioned drill hole locations are shown in Table 1 and Figure 2. Composites from results received this Quarter are shown in Table 2. A section from Plavica showing holes PNDD070 and 071 is shown in Figure 3.

Genesis aims to continue drilling and then complete a JORC compliant Resource in mid 2016. Genesis then expects to complete a feasibility study before October 2017, and has agreed to commit up to US $7.5m for these activities.

methods

In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of high
grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade
results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for
such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such
aggregations should be shown in detail.
A 0.4 g/t Au cut-off is used for reporting of Au grades and a 0.3 % for
Cu grades. No top cuts are used.
A minimum of 3m length is used for compositing and a maximum of
3m of internal waste is used. These parameters are considered
adequate for this deposit style.
No metal equivalents used

These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of
Exploration Results.
Core orientation and sectional interpretation suggest the mineralised
zones are sub-vertical.
mineralisation
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle

is known, its nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there
should be a clear statement to this effect (e.g. ‘down hole length, true
width not known’).
Holes are drilled on 45 to 60 degree angles to intersect the zones at
the highest angle possible but also taking into account the steep
topography of the area and the difficulty of locating drill pads. As a
result the mineralized zones are intersected at an oblique angle and
therefore down-hole lengths are not true widths.

  • (i) In September 2013, the Company entered into a loan agreement with an unrelated Malaysian based financing company pursuant to which the financing company made available a loan facility to the Company, with a $3 million facility limit ( First Loan Facility ). In April 2014, the parties reached an agreement to increase the First Loan Facility limit from $3 million to $7 million on the same terms and conditions provided for in the existing loan agreement. Total funds of $7 million remain available for draw down by Genesis under the First Loan Facility. In February 2016, 57,002,640 shares were issued at $0.055 per share in retirement of debt amounting to $2,600,000 plus accrued interest.

  • 2 The “Nature of interest” (items 6.1 and 6.2) includes options in respect of interests in mining tenements and petroleum tenements acquired, exercised or lapsed during the reporting period. If the entity is involved in a joint venture agreement and there are conditions precedent which will change its percentage interest in a mining tenement or petroleum tenement, it should disclose the change of percentage interest and conditions precedent in the list required for items 6.1 and 6.2.

  • 3 Issued and quoted securities The issue price and amount paid up is not required in items 7.1 and 7.3 for fully paid securities .

  • 4 The definitions in, and provisions of, AASB 6: Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources and AASB 107: Statement of Cash Flows apply to this report.
