QUARTERLY REPORT For the Quarter Ended 31 December 2007
==> picture [97 x 108] intentionally omitted <==
___________
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Drilling of Target 2 at Cooljarloo North confirms high grades within 2 main strands over a combined strike length of 9 km.
-
Cumulative magnetic target lengths at Cooljarloo and Cooljarloo North increased to 120km with preliminary resource estimations in progress on 38km of mineralised strands.
-
A new large magnetic target, interpreted to be channel style mineralisation, some 18km in length averaging 500m in width identified at Bidaminna. The target is parallel to the Bidaminna Inferred Resource (44Mt @ 3% HM) which is 6km long and 400m wide, indicating scope to significantly increase the resource.
-
Image’s North Perth basin tenement holdings increased to 2047 square kilometres.
-
Three tenements at granted Serpentine Lakes in the Eucla Basin, paving the way for heritage clearances, ground magnetic surveys and exploration drilling. Orientation surveys indicate adjacent mineralised strands may extend into the tenements for some 28km, providing a major exploration target.
-
Depth extensions of nickel sulphides confirmed in the first hole of the current drilling programme at Emu Lake and a strong off-hole conductor identified.
-
Early encouragement from airborne geophysical surveys at the Kambalda West nickel project.
-
The Emu Nickel IPO is currently open and, subject to market conditions, is aimed at listing on ASX at the end of February 2008.
COOLJARLOO NORTH (Image 100%)
During the quarter 932 samples were processed from Target 2, with the laboratory results summarised in Figure 1 and Table 1. This prospect is comprised of two separate strandlines that are continuous over a strike length of over 4 km. A third dissected strandline is also evident between the two main strands. The strandlines are preserved against the Gingin Scarp, in the same geological position as Iluka’s operating Gingin minesite and several other prospects and mines in the region. Preliminary estimations indicate that this prospect is likely to be economic and as such Image’s ranks this project alongside the high grade Hyperion deposit on the same tenement. Drilling has confirmed the continuity of high-grade mineralisation over a 4.5km length on each of the two major strands comprising the target. Further drilling is planned during the first quarter of calendar 2008.

Image has applied for a single graticule exploration licence, E70/3328, which extends the strike length of Target 2 held by Image by about 500 metres.
In December, 27 holes were drilled at Hyperion to better define the mineralisation. The total number of holes on this prospect is now 306, and these drill holes will add valuable information for the resource estimate. A further 13 holes were drilled on other magnetic targets, two of which intersected significant heavy minerals, see Table 3. These encouraging results provide targets for further drilling.

NEW PERTH BASIN TENEMENTS (Image 100%)
Four new tenements have been applied for as shown in Figure 2. These bring Image’s land holdings to 2047sq km. Several of these tenements have aeromagnetic targets identified by a recent survey and highlight their prospectivity. Image is now preparing ground magnetic programmes similar to those carried out over its existing tenements. These surveys will prioritise targets for follow up drilling when the new tenements are granted.

As previously reported, concentrates from 27 composite samples have been generated by wet tabling and are currently being processed by heavy liquid separation, high intensity magnetic separation, electrostatic separation and by XRF analysis of the resulting fractions. The results of this testwork will better define the markets for which these products are suited and provide firmer estimates of product pricing.
Table 7 summarises the results of further laboratory processing of channel intersections that were drilled in previous quarters.

The magnetic data for Cooljarloo and Cooljarloo North has been reviewed and a further 42km of targets have been identified at Cooljarloo. Drilling of these extensive targets in 2008 is currently being planned.

BIDAMINNA (Image 100%)
Following reprocessing of geophysical data and reinterpretation of drilling results over the Bidaminna resource, Image has outlined a very large channel/strand target at Bidaminna which is 18km long and averages 500m in width with sections up to 1km in width (see Figure 3). This target is much larger than the channels drilled to date at Cooljarloo.

The Bidaminna Inferred Resource (44Mt @ 3% HM), which was previously drilled out by Geopeko outlining a deposit some 6km in length and 400m in width, is situated just 1km to the west of the new target. This augers well for the new target zone which is three times the length and is 100m wider on average. In addition, the interpreted magnetic data for this new target is high in quality, with good line to line correlation. The average ground magnetic amplitude of the anomaly outlining the new target zone is 0.9nT which is similar to that at the Bidaminna resource.
Image holds tenements over 40% of the extent of the Bidaminna resource. It also has an additional 6km long target directly along strike and north of the resource. In total there are more than 30km of new targets which have been identified by this recent work outside Bidaminna resource.
The tenement is expected to be granted in February. Image is now planning to carry out heritage and botanical surveys followed up by a drilling programme over the 18km new target and the northern extension of the Bidaminna resource. The new target zone opens up the southern part of the North Perth Basin for the discovery of large, high volume channel deposits of the type identified by Image in the Cooljarloo area.
OTHER NORTH PERTH BASIN PROJECTS (Image 100%)
282km of first-pass ground magnetic surveys were conducted on several of Image’s tenements as summarised in Table 8.

SERPENTINE LAKES, EUCLA BASIN (Image 100%)
An access and compensation agreement was signed with the native title holders of the land within the project area with subsequent grant of the tenements. A programme of work application has been submitted to DOIR outlining a magnetometer survey and air core drilling. Heritage surveys are expected to commence in March or April 2008.
During the quarter, 80 line-km orientation ground magnetic and radiometric surveys were completed over Diatreme Resources’ (ASX:DRX) Cyclone heavy mineral discovery on its adjoining tenement. This revealed a correlation of high amplitude linear NW trending ground magnetic targets with the higher grade mineralisation intersected by Diatreme in at least 6 separate targets (see Figure 4). This supports the interpretation that 3 palaeo coastlines pass into the Image tenements. A prospective zone some 28km long and up to 9km wide based on interpretation of elevation models, geology and magnetic trends has been identified for future exploration.

EMU LAKE (Image 33⅓%)
As foreshadowed in the September 2007 quarterly report, Jubilee Mines has commenced diamond drilling at the Binti Gossan Zone, targeting the depth extensions of previously intersected high grade nickel sulphide mineralisation on an ultramafic contact. During the quarter, three diamond drill holes were completed with preliminary assays (nickel only, no copper or PGE results yet) available from the first hole (ELD27) as shown in Figure 5. ELD27 intersected a narrow (0.1m) massive nickel sulphide stringer close to the contact overlain by a significant zone of disseminated nickel sulphides. Preliminary assay results are shown in Table 9. The ultramafic contact is overturned, hence the stratigraphically higher disseminated mineralisation is intersected below the massive contact mineralisation.

The intersections in ELD27 confirm the extension of both massive and disseminated nickel sulphide mineralisation on or close to the ultramafic contact some 450m below surface, open at depth and laterally. Drill hole ELD28 intersected the ultramafic contact approximately 300m below surface with minor sulphides evident in the ultramafic. Drill hole ELD29 intersected the ultramafic contact at approximately 500m below surface with disseminated sulphides evident over a 0.85m interval close to the contact.

Down-hole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys identified off-hole conductors in all three drill holes. ELD29 was targeted at a strong off-hole conductor identified in ELD27 and appears to have just missed the conductor. It is anticipated that these conductor targets will be drilled in the ongoing drilling programme. Image is encouraged by the confirmation of massive nickel sulphides and an EM conductor some 250m down plunge of the high grade intercepts (2m at 6.20% Ni, 1.78% Cu and 2m at 2.63% Ni, 1.05% Cu) in previous drill hole ELD15 in addition to other untested EM conductors identified in the recent drilling.
WOONGARING (Image 100%)
A 125-hole, 4,269m aircore drilling programme was completed over several nickel and gold targets in the Woongaring greenstone belt. The drilling intersected sequences of sediments, mafic and ultramafic rocks and banded iron formation frequently intruded by granitic rocks. Receipt of assay results is in progress together with assessment of the results.
KAMBALDA WEST (Image 100%, diluting)
A Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM) survey totalling 1,266 line-km was completed over several target areas within the joint venture tenements late in the quarter. VTEM is an airborne electromagnetic technique with demonstrated ability to detect highly conductive rock bodies such as massive sulphides at depths of several hundred metres. Several conductor anomalies were identified by the survey. Significantly, some of these VTEM anomalies are coincident with aeromagnetic anomalies which may reflect the presence of ultramafic rocks with potential to host nickel sulphides. Field verification of the anomalies has been delayed by extensive bushfires in the region.
CORPORATE
EMU NICKEL IPO
As previously reported (ASX release 1 November 2007), the ex-entitlement date for Image shareholders to participate in the bonus issue of shares in the proposed Emu Nickel IPO was 13 November 2007. A prospectus has been prepared and distributed for the raising of between $10 million and $20 million for the purpose of exploring a package of nickel properties in joint venture with Image. The properties include Emu Lake, Kambalda West, Woongaring and several other nickel projects. As a result of recent market changes the nominated closing date of the offer has been amended to 14 February 2008 with the aim of listing on ASX at the end of February.
