Murray Zircon MOU
Image Resources NL(Image)has signed a non-binding Memorandum of
Understanding(MOU)with Murray Zircon Pty Ltd(Murray Zircon) and its parent,
Guangdong Orient Zirconic Ind Sci & Tech Co., Ltd(Orient Zirconic)which has a
market capitalisation of A$1.6BN. The MOU is directed at fast-tracking the
development of Image’s 100%-owned high grade Boonanarring mineral sands deposit
in 2016 followed by the Atlas deposit.
The MOU outlines an asset purchase transaction subject to Image Shareholders’
approval and independent expert opinion. Key elements include:

The acquisition of a wet plant together with certain ancillary equipment (all of which
Murray Zircon operated for 3 years until April 2015);

Orient Zirconic to take 90% of all zircon products at market prices;

Orient Zirconic to provide a US$8M downstream working capital facility;

Murray Zircon to provide, for drawdown following completion of the acquisition, a
short term loan in the amount of A$4M. If Image does not get into production within
3 years then this loan, subject to certain exceptions, is not repayable.

Securing Murray Zircon’s key operational and managerial expertise for the purpose
of rapidly developing Image’s flagship high grade mineral sands deposits in the
North Perth Basin in Western Australia;

Murray Zircon to provide a purchase option for Murray Zircon’s mineral separation
plant at its South Australian Mindarie project;

Murray Zircon to receive shares representing 42% of the expanded share capital of
Image at completion. Ifa decisiontomineisreached and projectfinance secured

within 2 years of completion then Murray Zircon will receive a further 5%;

  • Image’s board for a period of 2 years to be comprised of 2 nominees of Image and 2 nominees of Murray Zircon plus an independent chairman;

  • Various protective mechanisms for minority shareholders such as Murray Zircon not to increase its shareholding in Image other than in terms of the MOU for 2 years, Murray Zircon’s shareholding to be escrowed for 2 years, and Murray Zircon to support non change of control resolutions put to shareholders by the board.

Murray Zircon owns and operates the Mindarie Mineral Sands Project which it redeveloped in 2012. MZ developed positive relations with local landholders, the community and regulatory authority and developed a strong reputation as an innovative and efficient mineral sands producer.

Orient Zirconic , which owns 65% of MZ and is one of China’s largest zircon processing companies, claims to manufacture the most comprehensive range of zirconium products in the world. The company is listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (Code: 002167) with a market capitalisation of approximately RMB 8.15 Billion (exceeding AU$1.6 billion). Orient Zirconic is subject to an investigation by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) a Chinese Investigative authority. Image will maintain a watching brief during the period of due diligence.

Preliminary indications are that MZ’s ore processing equipment is of the right capacity and processing capability to accommodate Image’s Boonanarring ore with only minor adjustments. This means the project will benefit by getting access to a complete package of pre-engineered and proven ore processing equipment and infrastructure that is available immediately for transfer to Boonanarring.

MZ equipment to be provided includes an in-pit mine slurry unit; pipelines and booster pump skids; poles and wires; complete Primary Concentration Plant including slimes thickener, associated water tanks and HMC dewatering equipment; maintenance equipment and critical spares; laboratory equipment; rolling stock and miscellaneous office/ablution buildings. Image and MZ estimate the total value of the plant and equipment to be approximately $20M.

Initial production is planned from the Boonanarring deposit, located near the township of Gingin, approximately 65km north of Perth in an area with significant existing infrastructure.

The MOU outlines incentives related to the Boonanarring project being brought quickly into production. Murray Zircon has the right to be issued an additional 5% of Image’s share capital if production is achieved within 2 years. If Image does not get into production within 3 years then the $4M short term loan, subject to certain exceptions, is not repayable.

Tronox-Image Sale/ Royalty Agreement over the Mullering Tenements Tronox have agreed with the terms which include $50,000 cash payment and a sliding royalty concerning the sale of the Mullering tenements (E70/4129 and E70/4130). The sliding royalty will be based on quarterly production figures on minerals which may be found and will be as follows:

................................................................................................................................... Page 2

==> picture [156 x 26] intentionally omitted <==

If the average grade is > than 2% but <4% than royalty will be pro rata from 0 to 5%. All + 4% grade receives 5% royalty.

For example: at 2.5% average grade the royalty will be 1.25% at 3.0% average grade the royalty will be 2.50% at 3.5% average grade the royalty will be 3.75% at 4.0% average grade the royalty will be 5.00%

These two tenements are adjacent to Tronox’s dredging operation (Fig1) .Public record shows a number of dredging areas under application for potential mining adjacent to the two Mullering tenements.

New Exploration (Dredge) Target Zone

In addition Image Resources has outlined a new exploration zone which is located only 3 km west of a proposed Tronox dredge development area. This new project is within a 10km long x1.5km wide area. Work to date has utilised historical drilling, ground magnetics, aeromagnetics and topography. The target areas that have been selected have similar properties to the proposed Tronox dredging areas east of Image’s Woolka EL (E70/4244). This interpretation infers an extension of the Tronox proposed dredge area within our Woolka ground which has not been previously drilled.

Separately, Tronox have also previously reviewed and analysed samples from Atlas, Hyperion, Helene and Gingin South Deposits. These deposits are near their existing mining and processing centres and are believed to be of interest for their dry mining potential.

George Sakalidis Director of Exploration commented, “that the above Sale/Royalty transaction is consistent with Image’s Strategy to continue to evaluate all possible development scenarios with all possible Miners that have operating infrastructure and plants in WA or elsewhere”.

Diatreme

A $435,000 payment has been received by Image which now completes the transaction.

An FOB production royalty of 1% will be retained by Image on all heavy mineral production within the area of the transferred tenements. Diatreme will have the option to acquire the royalty at an agreed value of $435,000 exercisable by 16 February 2017. Should Diatreme choose not to exercise the option, the royalty will remain in place.

Exploration activities

Since November 2014 185 holes totalling 7261 metres have been completed which are mainly testing for the both the northern and south western extension of the Boonanarring deposit and also includes 39 holes totalling 1646m testing for metallurgical/infill drilling within Block B of the Boonanarring Deposit (Fig. 1).

Boonanarring northern extension discovery

The very high grade HM and high grade zircon eastern strand at Boonanarring has now been intersected for the first time some 1.3km north of the northernmost part of the Boonanarring deposit and similar high grade of [email protected]% HM from 40m has been intersected on the same RL (Fig. 5 and Table 2). This northern extension is very significant as it potentially links into the Indicated Mineral Resource[1] within the Boonanarring deposit (Block A 210 East strand) which has an average grade of 19.2% HM and 26.4% Zircon. This is very exciting for the company and further infill drilling to the north is currently being planned.

Furthermore, a number of historical drill lines previously completed which are 2.5km and 5km from the northern most part of Boonanarring Resource show high grade zones up to 6m at 6.7% HM in historic drilling (Iluka drill hole RG0045 from 27m) which correlate with the predicted NNW extension of Boonanarring. Some of the previous drilling did not drill to the target RL (65m) and further infill and deeper holes are warranted to ascertain the grade, thickness and potential extension in detail. Note in some cases these planned holes are very close to the Brand Highway and permission for access will be required.

Boonanarring new strand

The East Gingin North strand which is west of Boonanarring strand was delineated by initial drilling over a 1.5km length and has now been extended up to 2.4km in length and further infill drilling and extensional drilling north and south of this 2.4km zone (Fig. 2) is planned.

The aim of the drilling and the drilling north of Boonanarring is to have a long life standalone operation and concurrently expand other projects into potential parallel operations for Image and or other producers (Fig. 1). All holes drilled in this current programme are within the Red Gully-Boonanarring-Gingin North-Gingin SouthChandala region and all assay results are shown in Table 2 and a drilling summary in Table 1.

Boonanarring Block B metallurgical/infill drilling

Block B drilling of 39 holes totalling 1646 metres have been completed principally for a metallurgical test work currently being carried out by Allied Mineral Laboratory for an interested potential off take and toll treatment partner. These samples have been combined with existing samples from previous drilling and will be representative of the first 3 years of production (Fig. 1).

The metallurgical drilling of 10 infill lines is also relevant to upgrade the resource category within Block B especially over the highest grade eastern strand. The eastern strand within Block B is now covered with 100m spaced lines and will assist in upgrading the resource category in this area. The high grade nature of this eastern strand is shown in sections Figures 6 and 7 and suggest this eastern strand has continuous high grade zones including:

9m @ 25% HM from 43m in hole IX00103

5m @ 21.0% HM from 42m in hole IX00102

12m @ 16.7% HM from 32m in hole IM00036 including 4m @ 37.5% HM from 33m

15m @ 10.0% HM from 25m in hole IM00037

18m @ 12% HM from 22m in hole IM00065 inc. [email protected]% HM from 30m & [email protected]% HM from 35m

4m @ 55.0% HM from 35m in hole IM00066

Other areas drilled in this campaign include Red Gully, Chandala, Bidaminna and some infill drilling within the Boonanarring Resource. These assay results are listed in Table 2.

The Director of Exploration George Sakalidis commented:

“I am very excited with the success of the drilling programme outlining potential high grade extensions to the north and southwest of Boonanarring which will allow the company to potentially increase the mine life to 10 years production. The ensuing drilling programmes will be predominately concentrating and following up these encouraging results and is due to start in early April 2015.

All the drilling component of the 257 holes planned for this stage 1 programme have been pre payed by a placement to a major WA drilling company. The drilling programme started on the 14[th] November 2014 and is ongoing.

SECTION 1 SAMPLING TECHNIQUES AND DATA

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques

Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut
channels, random chips, or specific
specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as
down hole gamma sondes, or handheld
XRF instruments, etc). These examples
should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling.

Include reference to measures taken to
ensure sample representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.

Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to the
Public Report.

In cases where ‘industry standard’ work
has been done this would be relatively
simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling
was used to obtain 1 m samples from
which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a
30 g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is coarse
gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (eg submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailedinformation.

All drill holes reported in this release are vertically oriented, reverse-
circulation air-core (RCAC) drill holes.
Drilling
techniques

Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation,
open-hole hammer, rotary air blast,
auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details
(eg core diameter, triple or standard
tube, depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether core
is oriented and if so, by what method,
etc).

All RCAC drill holes are drilled vertically using an NQ-sized (63.5 mm
diameter) drill bit.

Water injection is used to convert the sample to a slurry so it can be
incrementally sampled by a rotary splitter.

recovery

Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut
channels, random chips, or specific
specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as
down hole gamma sondes, or handheld
XRF instruments, etc). These examples
should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling.

Include reference to measures taken to
ensure sample representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.

Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to the
Public Report.

In cases where ‘industry standard’ work
has been done this would be relatively
simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling
was used to obtain 1 m samples from
which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a
30 g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is coarse
gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (eg submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailedinformation.

At the drill site, Image’s geologist estimates sample recovery
qualitatively (as good, moderate or poor) for each 1 m down hole
sampling interval. Specifically, the supervising geologist visually
estimates the volume recovered to sample and reject bags based on
prior experience as to what constitutes good recovery.

Image found that of the 686 samples (that have a grade ≥ 2.5% HM)
that are the subject of this release, 610 (89%) have good recovery, 51
have moderately good recovery and 25 have poor recovery.

Image also monitors recovery through the mass of the laboratory
sample, which is recorded prior to despatch and again on delivery to
the laboratory. The mass variation in the laboratory samples can then
be correlated back to the original total sample.
Logging
Whether core and chip samples have
been geologically and geotechnically
logged to a level of detail to support
appropriate Mineral Resource
estimation, mining studies and
metallurgical studies.

Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or costean,
channel, etc) photography.

The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.

Image’s supervising geologist logs the sample reject material at the rig
and pans a small sub sample of the reject, to visually estimate the
proportions of sands, heavy mineral sands, ‘slimes’ (clays), and
oversize (rock chips) in each sample, in a semi-quantitative manner.

The geologist also logs colour, grainsize, an estimate of induration (a
hardness estimate) and sample ‘washability’ (ease of separation of
slimes from sands by manual attrition).

To preclude data entry and transcription errors, the logging data is
captured into a digital data logger at the rig, which contains pre-set
logging codes. No photographs of samples are taken.

The digital logs are downloaded daily and emailed to Image’s head
office for data security and compilation into the main database server.

Samples visually estimated by the geologist to contain more than 0.5%
HM (by weight) are despatched for analysis along with the 1 m
intervals above and below the mineralised interval.

The level and detail of logging is of sufficient quality to support any
potential future Mineral Resource Estimates.

All (100%) of the drilling is logged.

Geotechnical logging is not possible for the style of drilling used,
however the logging is acceptable for metallurgical sample selection if
required.

Quality of assay
data
and
laboratory tests

The nature, quality and appropriateness
of the assaying and laboratory
procedures used and whether the
technique is considered partial or total.

For geophysical tools, spectrometers,
handheld XRF instruments, etc, the
parameters used in determining the
analysis including instrument make and
model, reading times, calibrations
factors applied and their derivation, etc.

Nature of quality control procedures
adopted (eg standards, blanks,
duplicates, external laboratory checks)
and whether acceptable levels of
accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision
have been established.

The laboratory despatch samples are prepared by Western Geolabs (in
Bellevue Western Australia) by first, wet weighing, then drying the
sample for 5 to 8 hrs in an oven at 110°C. The dry weight is then
recorded using a laboratory digital scale.

The dried sample is then crushed (using manual pummelling) until all
clay and sand materials in the sample pass through a 3.3 mm screen.
In samples where (>3.3 mm) rock fragments are found after
pummelling and screening, the mass of the fragments is recorded and
the material discarded.

The <3.3 mm sample is then hand mixed prior to splitting through a
single tier riffle splitter (16 chutes each with 8 mm aperture), as many
times as required to prepare a 100 g ± 5 g sub sample. The actual
mass retained is recorded using a laboratory digital scale.

The riffle splitter sub sample is then wetted, undergoes further manual
attrition to break up clays, before the <63µm clays (slimes) are
washed from the sample (de-sliming) using a jet wash and 63µm
screen.

The <63µm slimes (clays) are discarded and the >63µm sub sample
is placed in a metal tray and oven dried. When dry, the >63µm sub
sample is put through a 1 mm sieve and the mass of the screen
oversize (>1 mm) is recorded on a digital balance. The oversize is then
discarded.

The de-slimed sand fraction (>63µm & < 1mm) sub sample is then
weighed on a digital scale before being separated into two fractions by
mixing the sample in a glass separation funnel with a heavy liquid
(TBE) of density 2.95 g/cm3.

Once sufficient time has passed to allow the sample to separate and
settle, the <2.95 g/cm3, ‘floats’ fraction is collected and discarded.

The <2.95 g/cm3, ‘sinks’ fraction is collected from the funnel into a filter
paper, then washed with acetone to remove the TBE. The sinks are
then dried and the mass recorded on a digital scale.

From the process above the laboratory reports the wet mass received,
dry received mass, the mass of (>3.3 mm) rock fragments or coarse
oversize (if any), the mass of the 100 g± 5 g, sub sample, and the
mass of the (HM) sink fraction.

The procedure can be considered a total analysis for mass
concentration of heavy minerals in each sample. The method is also
consistent with best industry practices employed by mineral sands
explorers in the Perth Basin region.

For quality control the laboratory:

Uses certified masses to verify daily the accuracy of all laboratory
mass scales.

Prepares a replicate sample at a frequency of 2 for every 25 routine
samples analysed.

Uses a hydrometer to test daily the density of the TBE used for HM
separation

For each laboratory despatch (ranging from≈150 to≈350 samples)
Image includes blind standard reference samples (SRMs) that contain
known (to Image) concentrations of heavy and valuable heavy
minerals. Image inserts the SRMs, at a frequency of 1 in 30 sample
submitted to the laboratory.

Image is yet select and analyse field-replicate samples from field-
sample replicates collected to quantify field sampling precision. This
work will be completed at the end of the current field programme along
with external laboratory checks. Laboratory replicate sample results are
being reviewed.

Blanks samples for testing of cross contamination are not deemed
necessary for the style of mineralisation under consideration.

Discuss any adjustment to assay data.

The logging of significant intersections reported in this release has
been verified by alternative company personnel.

No twin holes have been drilled in the current programme.

Logging is captured at the rig using a data recorder, downloaded daily
and emailed to head office data services for incorporation into the main
database.

Assay results from the laboratory are received by email in standard
spreadsheet templates and merged with logging results in-house.

There are no adjustments to original laboratory results.
Location of data

Accuracy and quality of surveys used to
locate drill holes (collar and down-hole
surveys), trenches, mine workings and
other locations used in Mineral
Resource estimation.

Specification of the grid system used.

Quality and adequacy of topographic
control.

The drill hole collar locations are captured by one of Image’s rig team
following the completion of each drill hole, using a hand held GPS with
nominal accuracy of≈±15 m. Elevations have also been determined
with hand-held GPS. More accurate locations will be determined in
future by a registered surveyor using DGPS equipment.

The grid system for reporting results is the MGA Zone 50 projection
and the GDA94 elevation datum.

No topographic control has been considered at this time.
Data spacing and
distribution

Data spacing for reporting of Exploration
Results.

Whether the data spacing and
distribution is sufficient to establish the
degree of geological and grade
continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimation
procedure(s) and classifications applied.

Whether sample compositing has been
applied.

The drill holes reported in this release are located on≈200 m spaced
drill lines along the strike of mineralised strands, and at≈20 m
intervals across strike intervals.

No mineral resources have been estimated from the reported drilling
but the spacing is commensurate with that used to define Inferred
Mineral Resources in Image’s other projects in the region.

No sample compositing has been applied – all results are from 1 m
long down hole sample intervals.
Orientation of data
in relation to
geological
structure

Whether the orientation of sampling
achieves unbiased sampling of possible
structures and the extent to which this is
known, considering the deposit type.

If the relationship between the drilling
orientation and the orientation of key
mineralised structures is considered to
have introduced a sampling bias, this
should be assessed and reported if
material.

All drill holes are vertical and intersect sub-horizontal strata. As such
Image considers that it is highly unlikely that the orientation of drilling
relative to the well understood structure of minerals sands strands,
would result in a sampling bias.
Sample security
The measures taken to ensure sample
security.

All samples are collected from site by Image’s staff as soon as
practicable once drilling is completed and then delivered to Image’s
locked storage sheds.

Image’s staff also deliver samples to the laboratory and collect heavy
mineral floats from the laboratory, which are also stored in Images
locked storage

Image considers there is negligible risk of deliberate or accidental
contamination of samples. Occasional sample mix-ups are usually
corrected using Images checking and quality control procedures.
Audits or reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of
sampling techniques and data.

The results and logging have been reviewed internally by Images
senior exploration personnel including checking of masses despatched
and delivered, checking of SRM results, and verification logging of
significant intercepts.

Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. Image is targeting discovery of heavy mineral sands strand
deposits that have formed on ancient shore lines on the
eastern margin of the Swan Coastal Plain in sediments
Pleistocene to Holocene age in the north of the Perth Basin.
The Boonanarring deposit occurs in the Yoganup Formation
and is interpreted to have formed during periods of sea level
stability within a cycle of shoreline regression. The high grade
strands in Boonanarring are interpreted to have formed
against a notch in the local basement, possibly an ancient sea
cliff.
The current programme of drilling is targeting possible new
strands, and extensions of known strands between the
Boonanarring and Gingin Mineral Resources and also north of
Boonanarring, to the Red Gully region.
Drill hole
Information
A summary of all information material to the understanding of
the exploration results including a tabulation of the following
information for all Material drill holes:
easting and northing of the drill hole collar
elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in
metres) of the drill hole collar
dip and azimuth of the hole
down hole length and interception depth
hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that
the information is not Material and this exclusion does not
detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent
Person should clearly explain why this is the case.
In this public report, Image has reported only the drill holes
with significant intercepts that confirm the discovery of new
strand lines or possible extensions of known strand lines.
The Competent Person does not consider a full listing of the
barren and low grade mineralisation is material for the drill
holes that are the subject of this public report. However, the
figures attached to the public report do give the context of the
significant intercepts with respect to results reported by Image
in previous public reports.
Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging
techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg
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.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent
values should be clearly stated.
Image prepared the lists of significant intercepts in this public
report using the data aggregation algorithms available in
Micromine software. The criteria for reporting included
compositing criteria for 1 m intercepts of:
A starting threshold of ≥ 2.5% HM
Minimum down hole composite length of ≥ 2 m
No internal dilution (no 1 m intervals included if grades are <
2.5% HM).
Generally the grades of individual results contributing to
significant intercepts are of similar tenor.
There are no metal equivalent assumptions relevant to the
style of mineralisation under consideration.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important in the reporting
of Exploration Results.
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 (eg ‘down hole
length, true width not known’).
All holes are drilled vertically through a horizontal stratigraphy.
There is low risk of grade bias due to the angle of intersection
and geometry of the style of mineralisation under
consideration.
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations
of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery
being reported These should include, but not be limited to a
plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional
views.
Refer to the figures in the public report.
Balanced
reporting
Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is
not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high
grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading
reporting of Exploration Results.
The Competent Person does not consider a full listing of the
barren and low grade mineralisation is material for the drill
holes that are the subject of this public report. However, the
figures attached to the public report do give the context of the
significant intercepts with respect to results reported by Image
in previous public reports.
