CARPENTARIA EXPLORATION Company Business Plan

REGION : Eastern Seaboard – very focussed

• Pedigree World Class ore bodies : Mt Isa; Mt Morgan; CadiaRidgeway; North Parkes; Broken Hill; Olympic Dam; Cobar; Mt Lyell : Cu, Au, Pb, Zn, Ag

• Quality ground becoming available

• COMMODITIES : Iron, Gold, Tungsten, Base Metals PHILOSOPHY : Not wedded to projects and turn over

• In house project generation to discover mineralised systems

• Use in house expertise; Govt’ records; and acquisition of quality assets through simple project JV’s

• Add value through exploration and JV / sell if interested party but retain % share or royalty

• Counter cyclical on gold

RESULT : Still have significant working capital and 2 resources on books

1 The potential quantity and grade of the exploration targets is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

HAWSONS IRON PROJECT The Way Forward – State Significant Project Carpentaria’s Plan

• Optimise production rates utilising existing infrastructure for Stage 1 but maintain project scalability (Stage 2)

• Continue EIS

• Focus on stakeholder engagement and associated activities

• Water permitting requirements for site and transport infrastructure

• Completing EIS by Nov.2014

• Lodge Mining Lease Application

• Explore options to accelerate the BFS

HAWSONS IRON PROJECT Global Challenges

Challenge

• Extreme tightening in capital markets

• Cautious Chinese magnetite investment

• Slowed development of many projects

Response

• Investigating lower capital cost options

• Deal with Pure Metals for $5.0m extra funding to the project

• Additional capital for CAP

Quality of the Hawsons Project has met most of these challenges

New deal with Pure Metals will maintain project momentum
