SUPER HIGH-GRADE STRAND EXTENDED AND ENHANCED BY LABORATORY RESULTS AT COOLJARLOO NORTH

The high-grade core of the shallow heavy mineral (HM) strand recently discovered at Cooljarloo North(Target 1, ASX release 7 February 2007)) has now been drilled and extended from 2km to at least 2.5km in length within a strand which is 4.2km long and 100m wide (see attached map). The high-grade core of this strand is on average 40-80m in width and often between 4-8m in thickness at shallow depths of 2-6m from surface with mineralised overburden (refer to attached sections). The laboratory grades as shown in the following highlights and attached table are exceptionally high and are between 5 to 10 times the average grades being mined at the nearby world-class Tiwest Cooliarloo Mine, where the dry mining operations average between 4 to 5% HM. The laboratory results have been compared to the previously reported visual estimates (ASX release 7 February 2007) and have proved to be even higher in tenor as shown in the following highlights:

COOLJARLOO NORTH DRILLING HIGHLIGHTS

CN149 4m @ 24.5% 8m
CN198 2m @ 54.2% 2m
CN198 6m @ 23.5% 8m

Target 1 has been drilled on a 200m line spacing (see attached sections) and currently Target 2 is being drilled on the same spacing. Target 2 has been drilled in the past (ASX release 24 October 2006) and the current programme is designed to test higher amplitude magnetic targets similar to Target 1 (which have converted to very high grade results). The historical drilling is considered not to have adequately tested these higher amplitude targets. This drilling programme is expected to be completed by late March.

Image Resources has to date outlined over 12 km of high-grade near-surface strands at Cooljarloo (35AHD and 28000 strands) and Cooljarloo North (Target 1). Considering Image's excellent conversion of magnetic targets to new high-grade shallow strands, the number and length of new discoveries is expected to increase with approximately 40km of high amplitude targets remaining to test at Cooliarloo and a further 8 km to test at Cooliarloo North.

Further laboratory results are now expected for both Cooljarloo North (Targets 2, 3 and 4) and at Cooliarloo where both high amplitude strand targets and channel targets were investigated by recent drilling.
