1. Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder

On 16 May 2013 the Company announced that it had completed a value engineering review to improve the economics of the Dolphin Project. A copy of that announcement is attached to this booklet.

Further to this announcement, the Company is seeking to raise approximately $1,969,000 via a nonrenounceable Rights Issue. This raising will fund working capital for the Company for at least the next 12 months, during which the Company will undertake some exploration drilling, update the definitive feasibility study and approvals required for the amended development plan as well as progress funding arrangements for the Dolphin Project.

The Rights Issue will be underwritten by several existing Shareholders, each of whom will take up their own Rights. They include FinMin Solutions, an entity associated with myself and Chrysalis Investments an entity associated with Chris Ellis who is a fellow Director and substantial shareholder. The Offer is underwritten up to approximately $1,640,000, this being the total capital being raised less those Rights held by the Underwriters.

This Offer provides Eligible Shareholders with the right to purchase 2 New Shares for every 5 Shares they currently hold, at an issue price of $0.051 per New Share. This will raise approximately $1,969,000.

There is also a facility for you to apply for additional Shares, in addition to your Rights, under the Top Up Facility.

This Offer is non-renounceable. Consequently, you are not able to sell your Rights on market or otherwise transfer your Rights. For you to subscribe to this Offer, please note the following important dates:

Announcement Wednesday 29 May 2013
Record date (7:00pm AEST) Friday 7 June 2013
Closing date (5:00pm AEST) Thursday 4 July 2013

Information about this Offer, the key risks of investing in the Company and instructions on how to accept this Offer are set out in this Information Booklet. Further information, including, an update on the Company and its projects as well as financial information relevant to the Offer is included in the investor presentation lodged with ASX in conjunction with this Information Booklet on Wednesday 29 May 2013.

Please read this Information Booklet and the information contained in the investor presentation lodged with the ASX in its entirety before making your investment decision. On behalf of the Board I encourage you to take up this Offer and look forward to your continuing support.

Yours sincerely

3. Description and Effect of the Offer

3.1. Overview

The Company is making a pro rata non-renounceable offer of New Shares to Eligible Shareholders who are on the register of Shareholders on the Record Date, being 7:00pm (AEST) on Friday 7 June 2013, to acquire 2 New Shares for every 5 Shares held on the Record Date, at an Offer price of $0.051 per New Share. Fractional Rights will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares.

The Offer Price represents a discount of approximately 20% to the volume weighted average market price for the Shares on the thirty trading days preceding this Offer.

Your Rights

An Acceptance Form setting out your Rights to New Shares accompanies this Information Booklet. As a result of this Offer, Eligible Shareholders who do not take up all of their Rights will have their percentage shareholding in the Company diluted. Eligible Shareholders have the opportunity to subscribe for all, part or none of their Rights to New Shares.

Top Up Facility and Shortfall

In addition, certain Eligible Shareholders may apply for additional New Shares over and above their Rights. The Top Up Share pool will be limited to the amount of Shortfall available under the Offer, so there is no guarantee they will receive the amount applied for, or any, Top Up Shares.

There is no cap on the number of additional New Shares Eligible Shareholders may apply for. The Directors have the discretion to reject any application for Top Up Shares and to determine how the Shortfall Shares will be allocated.

The Directors will not, in the exercise of their discretion, issue any Top Up Shares to:

  • Related Parties, (however, they may be issued New Shares as Underwriters to the Offer and only after all applications for Top Up Shares have been satisfied).

  • Any Shareholder that, as a result of the issue of Top Up Shares, would contravene section 606 of the Corporations Act.

Any New Shares not taken up by the Closing Date will comprise the pool of Top Up Shares. If Applications for the Top Up Shares do not utilise the available pool, the Underwriters will purchase these Shortfall Shares.

Dispersion strategy

It is envisaged that Eligible Shareholders applying for Top Up Shares will each receive the lower of their applications and $15,000 worth of New Shares (to the extent this number of New Shares is available) and then any further allocation of New Shares will be on a pro rata basis.

3.2. Use of Proceeds

The table below provides an indication of the proposed use of the proceeds of this Offer.

Total Rights Issue
Pay Offer Costs $100,000
Update the Definitive Feasibility Study including exploration drilling $1,200,000
Fund general working capital requirements $669,000
Total (approximate amount to be raised under the Offer) $1,969,000

3.3. Effect on Capital Structure

The effect of the Offer on the capital structure of the Company is set out below:

Total Rights Issue
Existing Shares on issue at the date of this Information Booklet 96,537,291
Approximate new Shares issued under this Information Booklet 38,614,916
Approximate total number of Shares after issue of New Shares under this
Information Booklet
135,152,207
Approximate amount to be raised under the Offer (before Offer Costs) $1,969,000
Approximate market capitalisation of Shares and New Shares at the Offer Price $6,893,000
Options on issue at the date of this Information Booklet 4,500,000

The above figures assume that no existing Options over the Company’s Shares will be exercised prior to the Record Date. There are 4,500,000 existing Options, comprising:

  • 1,000,000 Tranche 1 Options vested on 1 January 2010 with an exercise price of $0.25

  • 1,500,000 Tranche 2 Options vested on 1 January 2011, with an exercise price of $0.50

  • 2,000,000 Tranche 3 Options vesting on 1 January 2012, with an exercise price of $1.00

All of the Options are held by the Company’s chief executive officer, Simon Bird, and lapse if Mr Bird does not continue to be employed at the vesting date. All options expire on 31 December 2013.

The Board considers it is unlikely that any existing Options will be exercised prior to the Record Date. In the event that any existing Options are exercised, however, any proceeds raised will be applied to the general working capital of the Company.

3.4. Underwriting

Several existing Shareholders including FinMin Solutions (an entity associated with Director and Chairman Johann Jacobs) and Chrysalis Investments (an entity associated with Director Chris Ellis) will underwrite this Offer up to $1,640,000 on the terms set out in the Underwriting Agreements. Each of the Underwriters has committed to take up their Rights and this underwritten amount represents the balance of the Offer. A list of the Underwriters is set out in section 6.6.

8 | P a g e

The Underwriters will, collectively, receive an underwriting fee of $52,110 (which represents approximately 3-4% of the Underwritten Amount). The fees will be allocated among the Underwriters in the manner set out in section 6.6.

The Directors who are not associated with the Underwriters believe that this Underwriting structure provides the Company with the most efficient method for successfully completing the Offer.

If there is a Shortfall, it would result in Chris Ellis (and his associates) increasing his voting power in the Company to a maximum of 17.84%. Further details on the underwriting and details of the potential voting power of each Underwriter based on a range of outcomes are set out in section 6.6.

3.5 Minimum Application

Applications for New Shares must be the lesser of 14,000 New Shares and the Shareholder’s Rights.

3.6 Ineligible Shareholders

The Offer is not being extended to any Shareholder as at the Record Date whose registered address is situated outside Australia, New Zealand, or the Channel Islands because of the small number of such Shareholders, the number and value of the Shares they hold and the cost of complying with applicable regulations in those jurisdictions.

Furthermore, the New Shares (or Rights) have not been and will not be registered under the USA Securities Act and may not be offered, sold or resold in, or to persons in, the USA except in accordance with an available exemption from registration. Accordingly, the Offer is not being made in the USA.

3.7. Ranking of New Shares

The New Shares will be fully paid and rank equally with Existing Shares. The rights attaching to the New Shares will be the same as the rights attaching to the Existing Shares issued in The Company.

3.8. Allotment

The Company will make application within seven days from the date of this Offer for quotation of the New Shares on ASX. It is expected that allotment of the New Shares under the Offer will take place no more than 15 Business Days after the close of the Offer. If approval of ASX to the official quotation of the New Shares is not obtained within three months after the date of this Offer, all Application Monies will be repaid, without interest, in accordance with the Corporations Act. Application Monies will be held by the Company on trust for Applicants in a trust account until the New Shares are allotted.

Any Application Monies received for more than each Applicant’s final allocation of Shares (only where the amount is $1.00 or greater) will be refunded.

No interest will be paid on Application Monies.

3.9. No brokerage or stamp duty

No brokerage or stamp duty will be payable by Shareholders.

5. Principal Risk Factors

A. General market risks

Investors should be aware that the market price of the Company’s securities may be influenced by a number of factors. General movements in local and international securities markets, exchange rates, prevailing economic conditions, investor sentiment and interest rates could all affect the market price of the Company's securities. These risks apply generally to any investment on a securities market. In addition to the general risks associated with investing in a securities market, there are risks specific to investing in any particular entity. Some risks may be outside the Company’s control and not capable of mitigation. If in doubt about the general or specific risks associated with the Company's securities, you should seek advice from your professional advisers.

11 | P a g e

B. Company specific risks

Below is an analysis of some of the specific business risks facing the Company in the conduct of its activities:

Approval for an extension to the Company’s existing tenements

Exploration, mining and retention licences held by the Company will require renewal or extension from time to time. There is no guarantee that renewals or extensions will be granted to the Company on terms that are acceptable or at all.

The Company may need to raise additional funds

The Company believes the proceeds raised by this Offer will be sufficient to fund the actions described in this Information Booklet. However, the Company is likely to require additional funds to proceed with future stages and development of its projects.

Commodity prices and exchange rate risk

If the Company’s activities lead to production, future revenue will be derived through the sale of minerals which exposes the Company to commodity price risk. Commodity prices are dependent upon a number of factors which are outside of the Company’s control. Commodity prices are usually denominated in USA dollars whereas the income and expenditure of the Company is denominated in Australian dollars which exposes the Company to fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the USA dollar and the Australian dollar.

Fluctuations in commodity prices and the Australian dollar exchange rate could have a material effect on the financial and operating performance of the Company.

Land access and title risk

The Company has obligations in relation to expenditure levels and environmental matters for its tenements as well as responsibilities to various government entities and any landowners affected by its activities. A contravention of these obligations could affect the right to hold mining tenements in a given area. The Company’s mining tenements may be affected by land access issues for any land the Company does not own.

Environmental risk

As part of the mining industry, the Company is subject to State and Federal legislation regarding environmental obligations and liabilities. The legislative and regulatory requirements impose significant environmental obligations on the Company in relation to its operations. Compliance with these obligations and any future obligations (such as any carbon tax or carbon pollution reduction scheme imposed by the government) could have a material adverse effect on the financial and operating performance of the Company.

Retention of key employees

The Company is highly dependent upon qualified, scientific, technical and managerial personnel. There is significant competition for qualified personnel in the Company’s business. The Company may not be able to attract and retain the qualified personnel necessary for the development of its business. The loss of the services of existing personnel, as well as the failure to recruit additional key scientific, technical, managerial and other personnel in a timely manner could harm the Company’s business.

12 | P a g e

6. Additional Information

6.1 Rights Attaching to New Shares

From allotment and issue, the New Shares will rank equally in all respects with Existing Shares.

6.2 Interests of Directors

Directors are entitled to take up their Rights to New Shares, however, Related Parties will not be issued any Top Up Shares.

6.3 ASX quotation

The Company will make an application to ASX for the New Shares to be granted quotation on ASX. If permission is not granted for quotation of the New Shares on ASX, then no allotment and issue of any New Shares will take place and Application Monies (without interest) will be returned in full to Applicants. There will be trading of New Shares on a deferred settlement basis. Trading of New Shares will, subject to ASX approval, occur on or about the date specified in the Timetable.

6.4 Allotment and Despatch of Shareholding Statements

Subject to the New Shares being granted quotation on ASX, the New Shares will be allotted and issued and holding statements dispatched in accordance with the Timetable. It is expected that allotment and issue of New Shares will take place on or about Thursday 11 July 2013. It is expected that holding statements for the New Shares will be dispatched on Friday 12 July 2013. Application Monies will be held in trust in a subscription account until allotment and issue of the New Shares.

Any Application Monies received for more than each Applicant’s final allocation of Shares (only where the amount is $1.00 or greater) will be refunded.

No interest will be paid to Applicants.

6.5 CHESS

The Company will apply to have the New Shares issued under this Offer admitted to participate in CHESS in accordance with the Listing Rules and the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. The Company will operate an electronic issuer-sponsored sub-register and an electronic CHESS sub-register. The two sub-registers together will make up the principal register of New Shares.

6.6 Details of the Underwriters and Underwriting Agreements

Up to $1,640,000 of the Offer is underwritten by the Underwriters pursuant to an underwriting agreement entered into on or about Tuesday 28 May 2013 by the Company and the Underwriters. This amount represents the balance of the Offer after the Underwriters have taken up their Rights.

Details of the Underwriters and the potential impact on voting power of the underwriting

The Underwriters are as follows:

13 | P a g e

Underwriter Current voting power
Mr Richard Willmot Chadwick and Mrs Gwenda Ann Chadwick 8.38%
Chrysalis Investments (an entity associated with Director Chris
Ellis)
5.69%
FinMin Solutions (an entity associated with Director Johann
Jacobs)
0.03%
Mr Giuseppe Coronica 2.61%

The table below indicates the potential voting power of each Underwriter assuming that there is a Shortfall of 0%, 50% and 100% respectively:

Shortfall 0% 50% 100%
Underwriter Voting power
Mr Richard Willmot Chadwick and Mrs Gwenda Ann Chadwick 8.38% 11.89% 17.84%
Chrysalis Investments 5.69% 11.89% 17.84%
FinMin Solutions 0.03% 0.76% 0.76%
Mr Giuseppe Coronica 2.61% 4.06% 4.06%

The Company’s board has determined as follows:

  • Where the Shortfall totals up to $150,000, it would be allocated by pro-rating between FinMin Solutions (1/3) and Mr Giuseppe Coronica (2/3); and

  • A Shortfall totalling in excess of $150,000 will first be allocated to FinMin Solutions ($50,000) and Mr Giuseppe Coronica ($100,000). The balance of the Shortfall (after the issue to FinMin Solutions and Mr Giuseppe Coronica) will first be allocated to Chrysalis Investments to the extent required to ensure it holds similar voting power as Mr Richard Willmot Chadwick and Mrs Gwenda Ann Chadwick. Following that allocation, the remainder will be allocated to Mr Richard Willmot Chadwick and Mrs Gwenda Ann Chadwick, and Chrysalis Investments equally, so their respective voting powers are similar after the Offer.

Obligation to Underwrite and Fees payable

Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreements, the Underwriters, collectively, will apply for, or procure applications for the number of New Shares not taken up by Eligible Shareholders under the Offer up to the Underwritten Amount.

The number of New Shares and amount underwritten by each Underwriter, and the fee each Underwriter will be paid is as follows:

14 | P a g e

Underwriter No. of New Shares

Amount underwritten Fee payable on

and Mrs Gwenda Ann Chadwick
12,792,023 $652,393 $20,376

Conditions

This underwriting obligation is conditional on the Company informing the Underwriters of the number of Shortfall Shares two Business Days after the close of the Offer. Further, the Underwriters have no obligation to lodge applications for the Shortfall Shares if the Company has failed to materially comply with its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement and that failure, in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters:

  • results in a material diminution in the value of the assets or a material increase in the value of the liabilities of the Company which, in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters acting bona fide after consultation with the independent Directors, will have a material adverse effect on the success of the Offer; or

  • is an event which, in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters acting in good faith, will have a materially adverse effect on the success of the Offer.

Company's obligations, representations, warranties and indemnity

The Company has various obligations under the Underwriting Agreements, including:

  • ensuring the Offer takes place in compliance with the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules and all other applicable legal requirements;

  • unless otherwise agreed with the Underwriters, conducting the Offer in accordance with the timetable specified in the Underwriting Agreement (which largely reflects the Timetable); and

  • informing the Underwriters of any material breach of, or default under, the Underwriting Agreements.

The Company also provides various representations and warranties to the Underwriters relating to, inter alia, the conduct of the Offer and the ability of the Company to enter into the Underwriting Agreements and conduct the Offer. The Company indemnifies the Underwriters for losses incurred by it, its directors, agents and staff arising in connection with the Offer.

The value engineering of the Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”) confirms significantly improved project economics.

Key elements include:

  • shelving tailings retreatment plans thereby removing substantial upfront costs;

  • accessing additional resources at the base of the former open pit to generate strong early cash flow and increase the mine life;

  • deferring the underground mine re-opening and associated costs by several years; and

  • identifying further potential to remove or defer other significant expenditure.

King Island Scheelite Limited (KIS) is pleased to announce the completion of a value engineering study to further optimise the redevelopment of its world class tungsten mine on King Island, Tasmania.

This study has successfully confirmed the potential to improve on the DFS completed in 2012. The original plan involved reprocessing tailings for the first year while re-establishing access to the former underground mine. The current market conditions make reprocessing former tailings marginal at best.

The study identified a resource of 1.25Mt of ore at 0.67% WO3 in the existing pit floor and walls which can be mined during the first 3 years. This production will be in addition to the original underground mine plan, which can now be deferred until year 4.

Shelving the retreatment of tailings and deferring the underground production substantially improves the economics of this project. While the metallurgical process remains unchanged, certain cost savings have also been identified. Incorporating these changes into a revised DFS is expected to be completed in around six months.

- Dolphin Project Value Engineering study

The Dolphin Project is focused on reopening the tungsten mine on King island, Tasmania.

A DFS to process former tailings and reopen the underground mine was completed in 2012. Once reopened, the underground mine would produce 350,000 tonnes of tungsten ore per annum at an average grade of 1.04% WO3. A process using ‘whole ore flotation’ would recover 91% WO3 into an industry standard 65% tungsten concentrate. This could provide up to 25% of the world’s current nonChinese supply over a 10 year mine life with scope from down-dip exploration to substantially extend this.

Market conditions required a review of the DFS resulting in a value engineering study being undertaken.

This study has now been completed, confirming a significant improvement in the project economics and a reduction in the risk profile. Key outcomes of the study are outlined below.

1. Shelve the tailings retreatment plan

At current prices the economics of reprocessing this material are marginal. A focus on high grade ore in the former open pit and underground will provide better returns and save some $14M of capital associated with the original tailings retreatment plan.

2. Cut-back the existing pit wall

Significant tungsten ore remains in the existing pit floor and down dip from the toe of the Eastern and Northern high-walls. A review of geotechnical data and cut-back designs confirmed the potential to recover this ore, with negligible extension of the existing pit at surface.

JORC Resources within the proposed cut-back are 1.25Mt of ore at 0.67% WO3. Detailed mine planning will be undertaken in the short term to convert these into a JORC Reserve.

This ore is included in the current Dolphin Mine Resource of 4.76Mt at 1.29% WO3, however it is not included in the DFS mine plan and is therefore not part of the Dolphin Mine Reserve of 2.69Mt at 1.04% WO3.

It is expected that the open-cut ore can be mined with minimal dilution and a waste to ore ratio of 3.6:1 (tonne:tonne) over a period of 3 years.

3. Defer the underground re-opening

Re-opening the former underground will now be deferred while the cut-back is mined. Capital costs ($33M) associated with this re-opening (including a paste plant) will be deferred accordingly. While certain modifications to the current underground plan and schedule will be required, these are not expected to be substantial.

4. Other cost savings

Costs associated with bringing Bold Head, a deposit approximately 2kms from the Dolphin Mine, into production ($9.5M) can be substantially deferred.

2 | P a g e

The flow sheet and recovery process remain as proposed in the original DFS; however areas have been identified through procurement and contractual arrangements for further reductions in capital costs on the project.

Through recent developments, additional reductions to infrastructure and operating costs (power in particular) have also been targeted.

The next steps include:

  • Update the DFS to incorporate the revisions, in particular:

  • develop a detailed cut-back mine plan and confirm associated JORC Reserves;

  • update the underground mine plan and production schedule;

  • update the plant design, schedule and associated costs; and

  • obtain environmental and development approval for these amendments where necessary; and

  • Secure off-take arrangements and re-engage with potential financiers to ensure the project is adequately funded.

This work is expected to take approximately six months.
