LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Investor

On behalf of the Directors of Mamba Exploration Limited ( Company ), I am pleased to offer you an opportunity to invest in Mamba Exploration Ltd.

Mamba has assembled a portfolio of highly prospective mineral exploration assets in the Ashburton, Kimberley, Darling Range and Great Southern regions of Western Australia. The projects in the Ashburton and Great Southern are prospective for gold whilst those in the Kimberley and Darling Range are prospective for base metals such as copper, nickel and manganese.

Mamba’s focus immediately after listing on the ASX will be to explore the Calyerup Creek and Darling Range Projects. Calyerup Creek contains historical gold workings and several exciting gold targets that the Company plan to systematically test.

The Darling Range project is prospective for nickel and is located nearby Chalice Gold’s (ASX: CHN) recent Julimar discovery. The Darling Range Project is located close to Perth and associated infrastructure.

Both these projects have historical targets on which the Company plans to conduct further testing. The aim of this exploration is to discover an economic mineral resource with the potential to be developed by the Company. An economic resource has the potential to generate significant value for shareholders.

Mamba’s Board comprises of Directors that have significant experience across sectors including mineral exploration, corporate finance, commodities trading and mine development. In addition, members of the Board have worked in Australia, Asia, Africa and North America.

The Prospectus is seeking to raise a minimum of A$5,000,000 and a maximum of A$7,000,000 (before associated costs) via the issue of between 25,000,000 Shares to 35,000,000 Shares at an issue price of A$0.20 per Share. The purpose of the Offer is to provide funds for the Company to undertake systematic exploration of the Projects, general administration and working capital purposes, assist the Company to achieve an ASX listing, assist the Company to complete the acquisition of the Tenements, acquire the tenements it has applied for and identify other acquisition opportunities. The Prospectus also includes the Lead Manager Offer to ensure the shares to be issued upon exercise of the Lead Manager Options are freely tradeable.

The Prospectus contains detailed information about the Offer and the current and proposed operations of the Company, as well as the risks pertaining to an investment in the Company. Potential investors should carefully consider those risks detailed in Section 5, which include, but are not limited to:

  1. the high risk associated with investment in exploration undertakings;

  2. that completion under the Tenement Sale Agreements has not yet occurred;

  3. a number of the tenements in which the Company is seeking to acquire an interest are, as at the date of this Prospectus ungranted tenements;

  4. title, environmental, native title and heritage risks associated with mining activities; and

  5. risks associated with COVID-19.

We look forward to you joining us as a Shareholder and sharing in what we believe will be exciting and prospective times ahead for the Company. Before you make your investment decision, I urge you to read this Prospectus in its entirety and seek professional investment advice if required.

Yours faithfully

Justin Boylson

Topic Summary More
Information
What is the

2.2), the Company's pro forma statement of financial position
as at 30 September 2020 has net assets of A$8,409,445.
This takes into account the Offer, net of costs, as detailed in
Section7.
Relevant financial information in respect to the Company,

www.mambaexploration.com.au.
Section 3
Will the Company pay

deposits that are commercially viable to develop and mine, it
will develop these deposits and commence mining activities.
Only then will it generate operating revenue.
B. Key Risks
What are the key risks
of investing in the
Company?
Some of the key risks of investing in the Company are detailed
below. The list of risks is not exhaustive and further details of
these risks and other risks associated with an investment in
the Company are described in Section 5.

Exploration risk
The exploration licences to be acquired by the Company
are at early stages of exploration and potential investors
should understand that mineral exploration is a high-risk
undertaking. There can be no assurance that exploration
of these licences, or any other tenements that may be
acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an
economic ore deposit.
Section 5

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 7

Topic Summary More
Information
The future exploration activities of the Company may be
affected by a range of factors including geological
conditions, limitations on activities due to seasonal
weather patterns, unanticipated operational and technical
difficulties, industrial and environmental accidents, local
title processes, changing government regulations and
many other factors beyond the control of the Company.

Completion of acquisitions
The Company has entered into five agreements to acquire
Tenements that have yet to be completed. While
completion has not occurred, there remains a risk that
completion and the registration of those Tenements in the
name of the Company may not occur.
The Company has no reason to believe that any of the
vendors would fail to comply with the requirements of
those agreements, and it is expected that all of these
agreements will be completed and the Company acquire
title to those Tenements prior to the Company listing on
the ASX.

Transfer of Tenements
The transfer of a number of the tenements to which the
Company has entered into agreements to acquire are
subject to the receipt of the consent of the relevant
Minister of the Western Australian Government. While the
Company sees no reason that the Minister will withhold
his consent, if such consent is not received, the Company
will not have any legal right to receive those tenements.
The Company will undertake all actions needed to try and
ensure that its interest in those tenements can be properly
registered with the Western Australian government
department.

Tenement applications
A number of the tenements in which the Company is
seeking to acquire an interest are, as at the date of this
Prospectus ungranted tenements. If those tenements are
not granted by the relevant Government authority and are
not capable of being transferred to the Company, the
Company will lose the benefit of the areas of those
tenements for its exploration activities. There is no
guarantee that any of all of those tenement applications
will be granted and transferred to the Company.

Title risk
Subsequently, the Company’s mining and exploration
activities will be dependent upon the maintenance
(including renewal) of the tenements in which the
Company has or acquires an interest. Maintenance of the
Company’s tenements will be dependent on, among other
things, the Company’s ability to meet the licence
conditions imposed by relevant authorities. Although the
Company has no reason to think that the tenements in

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 8

Topic Summary More
Information
which it currently has an interest will not be renewed,
there is no assurance that such renewals will be given as
a matter of course and there is no assurance that new
conditions will not be imposed by the relevant authority.

Environmental risks
The Company is subject to a number of laws and
regulations regarding the protection of the environment.
These laws and regulations set various standards
regulating certain aspects of health and environmental
quality and provide for penalties and other liabilities for the
violation of such standards and establish, in certain
circumstances, obligations to remediate current and
former facilities and locations where operations are or
were conducted. Significant liability could be imposed on
the Company for damages, clean-up costs, or penalties
and the Company’s social licence may be questioned in
the event of certain discharges into the environment,
environmental damage caused by previous occupiers or
non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations.
The Company proposes to minimise these risks by
conducting its activities in an environmentally responsible
manner, in accordance with applicable laws and
regulations and where possible, by carrying appropriate
insurance coverage.

Native title and Indigenous heritage
In relation to tenements which the Company has an
interest in or will in the future acquire such an interest,
there may be areas over which legitimate common law
native title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If native
title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain
access to tenements (through obtaining consent of any
relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration
phase to the development and mining phases of
operations may be adversely affected.
Please refer to the Solicitor’s Report on Tenements in
Section 10 of this Prospectus for further details.
The Directors will closely monitor the potential effect of
native title claims involving tenements in which the
Company has or may have an interest.

Climate Change
Climate change is a risk the Company has considered,
particularly related to its operations in the exploration and
mining industry. Climate change risks attributable to the
Company include: (i) the emergence of new expanded
regulations associated with transitioning to a lower carbon
economy and market changes related to climate
mitigation. The Company may be impacted by changes to
local or international compliance regulations related to
climate change mitigation efforts; and (ii) climate change
may cause certain physical and environmental risks that
cannot be predicted by the Company, including events

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 9

Topic Summary More
Information
such as increased severity of weather patterns and
incidence of extreme weather events. All these risks
associated with climate change may significantly change
the industry in which the Company operates.

Land Access
There is a substantial level of regulation and restriction on
the ability of exploration and mining companies to have
access to land in Australia. Negotiations with both Native
Title and land owners/occupiers are generally required
before the Company can access land for exploration or
mining
activities.
Inability
to
access,
or
delays
experienced in accessing, the land may impact on the
Company’s activities.

Development and production risk
Any future discovery may not be commercially viable or
recoverable. For a wide variety of reasons, not all
discoveries are commercially viable and even if an
apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no
guarantee that it can be economically developed and
exploited.

Operational risk
The operations of the Company may be affected by
various factors including logistics, occupational health
and safety, environmental management and compliance
and failures in internal controls and financial fraud. To the
extent that such matters may be in the control of the
Company, the Company will mitigate these risks through
management and supervision controls.
In addition, the investments of the Company may be
affected by various factors which are beyond the control
of the Company, including adverse weather conditions,
industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes
and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of
consumables, plant and equipment, fire, explosions and
other incidents beyond the control of the Company.
The operations of the Company may also be affected by
natural disasters, epidemics, terrorist attacks and other
disasters which may materially and adversely affect the
economy in Australia and the Company's business.

Funding risks
The Company has no operating revenue and is unlikely to
generate any operating revenue unless and until one or
more of its projects are successfully developed and
production commences. Exploration and development
costs and pursuit of its business plan will reduce the
Company's current cash reserves and the amount raised
under the Offer.
Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to
Shareholders,may be undertakenatlowerprices thanthe

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 10

Information
then market price (or Offer Price) or may involve
restrictive
covenants
which
limit
the
Company's
operations and business strategy. Debt financing, if
available, may involve restrictions on financing and
operating activities.
No assurances can be made that appropriate capital or
funding, if and when needed, will be available on terms
favourable to the Company or at all. If the Company is
unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be
required to reduce the scope of its activities and this could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's
activities and could affect the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.
The Company may undertake additional offerings of
Shares and of securities convertible into Shares in the
future. The increase in the number of Shares issued and
outstanding and the possibility of sales of such shares
may have a depressive effect on the price of Shares. In
addition, as a result of such additional Shares, the voting
power of the Company's existing shareholders will be
diluted.
Financial failure, default or contractual non-compliance on
the part of such third parties may have a material impact
on the Company's operations and performance. It is not
possible for the Company to predict or protect the
Company against all such risks.

COVID-19
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant
impact on the global economy and the ability of
businesses, individuals, and governments to operate.
Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the
circumstances, it is difficult to predict the impact of the
pandemic on the Company’s business (or on the
operations of other businesses on which it relies), and
there is no guarantee that the Company’s efforts to
address the adverse impacts of COVID-19 will be
effective. The impact to date has included periods of
significant volatility in financial, commodities and other
markets. This volatility, if it continues could have an
adverse impact on the Company’s people, communities,
suppliers or otherwise on its business, financial condition
and results of operations.
The pandemic may lead to delays or restrictions regarding
land access and the Company’s ability to freely move
people and equipment to and from the Company’s
exploration projects, leading to delays and cost increases.
There continues to be considerable uncertainty as to the
duration and further impact of COVID-19, including (but
not limited to) government, regulatory or health authority
actions, work stoppages, lockdowns, quarantines, and
travel restrictions.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 11

The impact of some or all of these factors could cause
significant disruption to the Company’s operations and
financial performance.

2.9 Forecasts

Due to the nature of the Company's business activities and the market in which it operates, there are significant uncertainties associated with forecasting future revenues (if any) from the Company's proposed activities.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 17

The Directors have considered the matters detailed in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.

The Directors consequently believe that, given these inherent uncertainties, it is not possible to include reliable forecasts in this Prospectus.

Refer to Section 3 for further information in respect to the Company's existing activities.

2.11 CHESS

The Company will apply to participate in the Clearing House Electronic Subregister System ( CHESS ), which is the ASX electronic transfer and settlement system in Australia, in accordance with the Listing Rules and ASX Operating Rules. Settlement of trading of quoted securities on the ASX market takes place on CHESS. CHESS allows for and requires the settlement of transactions in securities quoted on ASX to be effected electronically. On admission to CHESS, 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 Company's register of Shareholders.

The Company will not issue certificates of title to Shareholders. Instead, as soon as is practicable after allotment, successful Applicants will receive a holding statement which sets out the number of Shareholders issued to them, in much the same way as the holder of shares in an Australian incorporated ASX-listed entity would receive a holding statement in respect of shares. A holding statement will also provide details of a Shareholder's HIN (in the case of a holding on the CHESS sub-register) or SRN (in the case of a holding on the issuer sponsored sub-register).

Following distribution of these initial holding statements, an updated holding statement will only be provided at the end of any month during which changes occur to the number of Shares held by Shareholders. Shareholders may also request statements at any other time (although the Company may charge an administration fee).

2.12

ASX Listing and Official Quotation

Within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus, the Company will apply to ASX for admission to the Official List and for the Shares, including those offered by this Prospectus, to be granted Official Quotation (apart from any Shares that may be designated by ASX as restricted securities).

If ASX does not grant permission for Official Quotation within 3 months after the date of this Prospectus (or within such longer period as may be permitted by ASIC) none of the Shares offered by this Prospectus will be allotted and issued. If no allotment and issue is made, all Application Monies will be refunded to Applicants (without interest) as soon as practicable.

ASX takes no responsibility for the contents of this Prospectus. The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 19

2.13 Allotment

Application Monies will be held in trust for Applicants until the allotment of the Shares. Any interest that accrues will be retained by the Company. No allotment of Shares under this Prospectus will occur unless:

  • (a) the Minimum Subscription is achieved (refer to Section 2.2); and

  • (b) ASX grants conditional approval for the Company to be admitted to the Official List (refer to Section 2.12).

The Company reserves the right to reject any Application or to issue a lesser number of Shares than those applied for. Where the number of Shares issued is less than the number applied for, surplus Application Monies will be refunded (without interest) as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date.

Subject to the matters in Section 2.12, Shares under the Offer are expected to be allotted on the Allotment Date. It is the responsibility of Applicants to determine their allocation prior to trading in the Shares issued under the Offer. Applicants who sell Shares before they receive their holding statements do so at their own risk.

2.14

Figure 4.2: Darling Range Project – Location & Access

The project covers parts of the northern portion of the high-grade Jimperding Metamorphic Belt and associated peripheral migmatites. This belt is in the Western Gneiss Terrain, which is the western-most province of the Archaean Yilgarn Block. Outcrops within the project area were noted to be fairly poor and were dominated by North trending dolerite dykes and quartz/quartzite ridges which appear to be structurally controlled.

Black Hills

In 1995, CRA Exploration Pty Limited conducted drilling on the current tenement. The programme was designed to test for gold mineralisation within the laterite and bedrock profile below previously defined surficial Au-As anomalism

CRA Exploration Pty Limited completed 26 drill holes using a custom build RAB/Aircore rig. Significant (>0.5g/t Gold) intersection include:

(i) 93BGR016: 6m @ 0.65g/t Au from 10m (ii) 93BGR011: 2m @ 0.51g/t Au from 6m

From 2011 to 2013, Fox Resources Limited conducted a 22-rock chip sampling program on the current project area. Anomalous rock chip samples including

  • (i) 5160: 1720ppm Ni

  • (ii) 5159: 1450ppm Ni (iii) 5174: 1610ppm Cu (iv) 5162: 1500ppm Cu (v) 5173: 1060ppm Cu (vi) 5164: 1020ppm Cu

Mistake Creek and Batty Bog Tenements

The tenements have had very little historical exploration however based on the regional aeromagnetic data, a package of ultramafic/mafic rocks trend through the tenements. These units to the north and east contain low-grade nickel and copper mineralisation. These units remain untested on the tenements. The Mistake Creek tenement is adjacent to the Mandrake Resources Jimperding project.

Refer to Section 3.5 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

(b) Exploration Potential

Within the Black Hills tenement, there are several old workings located in the area. Some grey quartz vein float is present around some of the old shafts and most appear to be located on or near banded iron formation float. Additionally, within the tenement, there is a circular magnetic feature, which is interpreted to be an intrusion (Figure 4:3).

Intrusive related nickel, copper and PGE systems are known to occur in the district and the feature is untested. This along with the gold anomaly on the project represent a significant target, particularly in light of the recent nickel, copper and PGE discovery made by Chalice Gold Mines Ltd at Julimar, approximately 30km west of the project. The tenement is prospective for gold and base metals styles of mineralisation with the best opportunity being a search for narrow, high-grade gold shoots.

The Batty Bog tenement has had very little historical exploration however based on the regional aeromagnetic data, there appears to be a circular magnetic feature which is either an intrusive feature or a highly folded banded iron formation. This magnetic feature represents a compelling exploration target which warrants testing (Figure 4:3).

The Mistake Creek tenement has had very little historical exploration however based on the regional aeromagnetic data, a package of ultramafic/mafic rocks trend through the tenement. These units along strike to the north and east, on Mandrake Resources Jimperding project, contain low-grade nickel and copper mineralisation which warrants testing on the tenement.

Figure 4.6: Calyerup Creek Project – Southern Prospect Cross Section

In 2011, Temby Minerals Pty Ltd explored the Calyerup Creek project. An RC drilling program was carried out, consisting of 15 holes on the north prospect and 7 holes in the central prospect.

Significant Intercepts at Northern Prospect during Temby drilling includes:

  • (i) TRC2 – 4m @ 1.8 g/t gold form 14m including 1m @ 4.83 g/t gold; and

(ii) TRC16 – 1m @ 9.89 g/t gold from 61m.

Drilling has been undertaken at three separate prospects on the project (Northern, Central and Southern). The central and northern prospects have had limited drilling, this drilling did intersect significant mineralisation. The Southern Prospect has had the bulk of the drilling, however, this drilling has only been very shallow (>25m vertical depth) and the mineralisation remains open at depth and along strike.

Refer to Section 4.3.2 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

(b) Exploration Potential

Calyerup Creek is an early-stage exploration project in the Albany Frazer tectonic zone. It covers the high-grade Metamorphic Craton Margin setting similar to Tropicanna and Glenburgh.

The historical work carried out is limited and involved predominantly shallow drilling, however, indications of significant mineralisation with drilling intersecting up to 12.7 g/t gold were identified which warrants follow up exploration. The area of Southern prospect is the highest priority drill target with drilling proposed at depth and along strike.

Refer to Section 4.4 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

4.4 Ashburton Project

Exploration Licences E08/2913 and E09/2332 and Exploration licence applications E08/3190 & E08/3266 forms the Ashburton Project covering 193 blocks or approximately 580km2 of the established mineralogical terrain of in the eastern part of the Gascoyne Mining District of Western Australia. The project is approximately 190km south of Onslow, 240km west of Paraburdoo and 220km north-east of Carnarvon.

The Ashburton project area lies to the east of the Carnarvon Basin within early Proterozoic rocks of the Morrissey Metamorphic Suite from the Capricorn Orogen in the Gascoyne Complex. Gold mineralisation is associated with quartz veins hosted in the early Proterozoic schists and gneisses of the Morrissey Suite. The gold mineralisation is commonly, but not universally, associated with malachite, chalcopyrite and minor galena with a highly variable structural control and orientation.

Early exploration comprised small scale prospecting chiefly for gold and base metals which is evident by the number of shallow prospecting pits. More recently, work comprised geological mapping around known occurrences, rock chip and stream sediment sampling, reverse circulation (RC) drilling and an induced polarisation interpretation. The project area is prospective given it lies on a major regional structure which separates into numerous “horsetail” structures within the project (see Figure 4.7). This regional setting is similar to the geological setting of the Glenburgh Gold Project (Gascoyne Resources Limited) which contains ~1.0Moz of gold.

Refer to Section 5 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

(a) Exploration History

Early exploration around Lyndon Station comprised small scale prospecting chiefly for gold and base metals which is evident by the number of shallow prospecting pits. The main areas of interest include the Lyndon Bettina, Eric’s Find, Broken Thumb and 30 Bob Well.

More recently in the 1980s and 1990s, work comprised geological mapping around known occurrences, trench, rock chip and stream sediment sampling and an aeromagnetic interpretation conducted by Helix Resources over the Lyndon Bettina

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 31

and 30 Bob Well areas exploration. During 2009-2011, Integrated Resources Group completed three programs of exploration activities. These includes:

Prospect scale mapping and rock chip sampling results up to 46.5 g/t Au were reported from the mineralised veins at Bettina East.

A total of 31 RC holes were drilled for a total of 1,841m at Eric’s Find, Lyndon Bettina, Bettina East, Skarn, Broken Thumb and Thirty Bob Well prospects significant intersections include:

(i) IRBET001: 1m @ 3.43g/t Au from 21m

(ii) IRBET002: 2m @ 32.85g/t Au from 46m

(iii) IRBET008: 1m @ 9.83g/t Au from 56m (iv) IRBT002: 1m @ 1.88g/t Au from 16m

(v) IRBW003: 2m @ 1.03g/t Au from 38m

Refer to Section 5.4.3 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

The Osbourne Well tenement (E09/2332) is located approximately 70km to the southeast of the Lyndon area and is located in the major regional structure. The area has had very little previous exploration activity. Exploration to date has consisted predominantly soil sampling and rock chip sampling. This sampling identified a number of significant rock chip results including:

(i) CR6050: 21.50g/t Au (ii) 693: 2.00g/t Au (iii) 695: 11.45g/t Au (iv) 699: 17.65g/t Au

Follow up trenching has been undertaken which identified 3m @ 1.9 g/t gold and 1m @ 5.2 g/t gold beneath the soil anomaly, however this did not adequately explain the rock chip sample results.

Refer to Section 5.5.2 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

(b) Exploration Potential

Below the historical shallow pits, three narrow quartz veins were modelled that represent a potential drill target. Integrated Resources Limited announced to the ASX shallow drilling intersected up to 4m @ 21.5 g/t and 4m @ 7.7g/t in two of the veins at Lyndon Bettina on 17 November 2010 (See Figure 4:8).

Figure 4.8: Lyndon Bettina Prospect - exploration model and drill results

The Lyndon area is prospective given it lies on a major regional structure which separates into numerous “horsetail” structures within the project. This regional setting is similar to the geological setting of the Glenburgh Gold Project (owned by Gascoyne Resources Limited) which contains ~1.0Moz of gold. Shallow auger/vacuum drilling is recommended over the project to test below the shallow transported colluvium.

The Osbourne Well area is covered by around 0.5 to 2m of colluvium which masks bedrock anomalism in most cases. The wide-spaced soil sampling is also ineffective in a highly stripped regolith profile in the northern Gascoyne / southern Ashburton region. In the region there is little to no supergene dispersion of gold, as a result, the sampling completed to date does not represent an adequate test of the region, particularly given the regional structure that runs through the project remains untested.

Refer to Section 5.5.3 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

Copper Flats Area:

The Copper Flats area is comprised of five exploration licence applications (ELA 80/4569, 4586, 5247, 5280 & 5281) covering 342 blocks or approximately 1,025km[2] and is centred approximately 125km east-northeast of Halls Creek, and 215km south of Kununurra. The project area comprises Ord Basin sediments and volcanic within the Hardman Syncline (see Figure 4.10). The Copper Flats area has been explored since the 1970s, with numerous reports of visible copper mineralisation in outcrop. Previous exploration includes rock chip and channel sampling along with RC drilling. The Copper Flats is an early-stage exploration area with excellent first pass results. Past exploration has identified areas of strong geochemical anomalism in favourable structural settings. The interpretation of drilling and mapping suggests that the copper mineralisation at Copper Flats is both a lateral stratabound mineralisation and a vertical narrow structurally controlled mineralisation (see Figure 4.11).

Figure 4.11: Copper Flats Area – Conceptual Mineralisation Model

(a) Previous Exploration

The Copper Flats area has been explored since the 1970s, with numerous reports of visible copper mineralisation in outcrop. Ord River Resources Limited (Ord) completed a small rock chip and channel sampling program on the Copper Flats project area. Sampling over the Project area has returned encouraging results, including:

  • (i) Channel Sample of 15m @ 8% Cu & 18g/t Ag

  • (ii) Channel Sample of 5m @ 6.4% Cu & 129g/t Ag

  • (iii) Channel Sample of 0.5m @ 15.8% Cu

  • (iv) Channel Sample of 9m @ 7.2% Cu & 174g/t Ag

  • (v) Channel Sample of 16m @ 7.8% Cu.

A 54 RC drill hole program was completed by Ord River Resources Limited during the 2006-2011 period. Significant intercepts include:

  • (i) RC Hole CF07RC005 - 8m @ 1.65% Cu from surface including 1m @ 5.06% Cu

  • (ii) RC Hole CF07RC028 - 7m @ 1.53% Cu from surface & 2m @ 1.07% Cu from 14m

  • (iii) RC Hole CF07RC035 -1m@ 3.1% Cu from 2m

  • (iv) RC Hole CF07RC041 - 2m @ 2.5% Cu from 8m &10m @ 0.65% Cu from 25m Including 1m @ 4.96% Cu.

Limited exploration has been undertaken on the project since 2011.

Refer to Section 6.1.3 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

(b) Exploration Potential

The Copper Flats Sub-Project is an early-stage exploration project with excellent first pass results. Past exploration including trenching and surface geochemistry has identified areas of strong geochemical anomalism in favourable structural settings.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 35

The interpretation of drilling and mapping suggests that the copper mineralisation at Copper Flats is both a lateral stratabound mineralisation and a vertical narrow structurally controlled mineralisation. It is suggested to review geophysical data and define appropriate tests for areas of known surface mineralisation, in particular for deeper sulphide mineralisation. Past explorers have proposed airborne electromagnetic (EM) as an effective method of ranking the large number of surface targets that have been generated from past work. In addition to EM, better quality/detailed aeromagnetic data may assist in defining regional structures which are associated with the copper mineralisation at Copper Flats project area.

Refer to Section 6.1.4 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

Ruby Plains Area

The Ruby Plains area is comprised of four granted exploration licences (E80/5079, E80/5232, E80/5409 and E80/5411) and three exploration licence applications (ELA 80/5085, 5086 & 5519) covering 287 blocks or approximately 860km[2] . The project is located approximately 50km from Halls Creek. The area is located within the Halls Creek Orogenic Belt, one of the principal tectonic elements of the Kimberley Region. Cobalt (Co)-manganese (Mn) mineralisation is present in the Ruby Plains Group, which is the main stratigraphic unit in the area. Historical exploration across the project area has focussed predominantly on Mn mineralisation (with associated Co mineralisation) with mapping, magnetic surveys, rock chip sampling and drilling. The Ruby Plains Sub-Project is an early-stage exploration project. Cobalt, Manganese and copper prospectivity of the area has been well established by past explorers.

(a) Previous Exploration

Historical exploration completed to date across the project area has focussed predominantly on manganese (Mn) and Cobalt (Co) mineralisation. Exploration activities completed includes:

  • (i) Detailed geological mapping

  • (ii) Rock chip sampling with

  • (A) Cobalt (Co) results ranging up to 9,370ppm Co;

  • (B) Significant Mn in Rock Chips including 35 samples >30% Mn with the highest result of 55.8%; Mn and

  • (C) Coincident Copper Cobalt and Nickel rock chip sample result up to 0.7% Cu, 0.65% Co and 0.33% Ni.

Scout drilling. Significant results include:

  • (i) SCR013 10m @ 1,930 ppm Co from 5m

  • (ii) 09RPR024 10m @ 2,552 ppm Co from 3m.

The activities completed have returned significant cobalt mineralisation associated with manganese. Cobalt mineralisation is to be used as a vector for nickel and copper mineralisation. Figure 4:12 shows the location and Cobalt results from the rock chip sampling.

(b) Exploration Potential

The Ruby Plains Sub-Project is an early-stage exploration project. Cobalt, Manganese and copper prospectivity of the area has been well established by past explorers.

The Project had the potential for cobalt-manganese and Nickel – Copper – Cobalt deposits. A detailed geological mapping, rock chip sampling and scout drilling are proposed to refine the understanding of the controls on, and extents of, mineralisation, and geological targets. A scout drilling program can test the depth potential of any identified mineralisation. Based on positive results being received from the initial scout phase of drilling, a systematic pattern drilling program is suggested.

Refer to Section 6.2.3 of the Independent Geologist’s Report for further information.

Speewah East Area:

The Speewah East area is located approximately 50km south-west of Kununurra in the East Kimberly of Western Australia. The sub-project comprises of one exploration licence and one exploration licence application. The project covers 160 blocks for approximately 480km[2] . The tenements are located on the western and relatively undeformed margin of the Kimberley Block, where they cover an antiformal structure known as the Speewah Dome and a section of the Greenvale Fault that hosts fluorite and barite mineralisation. Limited historical exploration has been completed to date. Potential for high-grade gold targets exists in structural and litho-structural traps. Exploration activities should focus for high-grade gold targets in significant regional dome structures with major regional faults of gold-bearing arsenic

The area is also considered prospective for intrusive related nickel and copper mineralisation similar the Savannah deposit to the south.

(a) Exploration History

Limited historical exploration has been completed to date on the Project area. A number of significant regional structures trend through the project. These structures to the south and west are associated with significant fluorite mineralisation, which in the region is associated with gold mineralisation.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 39

5. RISK FACTORS

The Shares are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free. The proposed future activities of the Company are subject to a number of risks and other factors which may impact its future performance. Some of these risks can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate controls. However, many of the risks are outside the control of the Directors and management of the Company and cannot be mitigated.

The risks described in this Section 5 is not an exhaustive list of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. It should be considered in conjunction with other information in this Prospectus. The risk described in, and others not specifically referred to, this Section 5 may in the future materially affect the financial performance and position of the Company and the value of the Shares offered under this Prospectus. The Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital or the market value of those securities. The risk described in this Section 5 also necessarily include forward looking statements. Actual events may be materially different to those described and may therefore affect the Company in a different way.

Investors should be aware that the performance of the Company may be affected and the value of its Shares may rise or fall over any given period. None of the Directors or any person associated with the Company guarantee the Company's performance, the performance of the Shares the subject of the Offer or the market price at which the Shares will trade. The Directors strongly recommend that potential investors consider the risks detailed in this Section 5, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, and consult their professional advisers, before they decide whether or not to apply for Shares.

5.1

Company and Industry Specific Risks

(a) Exploration risk

The exploration licences to be acquired by the Company are at early stages of exploration and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration is a high-risk undertaking. There can be no assurance that exploration of these licences, or any other tenements that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic ore deposit.

The future exploration activities of the Company may be affected by a range of factors including geological conditions, limitations on activities due to seasonal weather patterns, unanticipated operational and technical difficulties, industrial and environmental accidents, local title processes, changing government regulations and many other factors beyond the control of the Company.

(b) Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve Estimates

There are no current Mineral Resource or Ore Reserves identified by the Company on the Tenements. Whilst the Company intends to undertake exploration activities with the aim of defining a Mineral Resource, no assurances can be given that the exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. Even if a Mineral Resource is identified, no assurance can be provided that this can be economically extracted.

Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates which were valid when initially completed may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. In addition, by their very nature, Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretation which may prove to be inaccurate.

(c) Development and production risk

Any future discovery may not be commercially viable or recoverable. For a wide variety of reasons, not all discoveries are commercially viable and even if an

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 40

apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically developed and exploited.

(d) Completion of acquisitions

The Company has entered into five agreements to acquire Tenements that have yet to be completed. While completion has not occurred, there remains a risk that completion and the registration of those Tenements in the name of the Company may not occur.

The Company has no reason to believe that any of the vendors would fail to comply with the requirements of those agreements, and it is expected that all of these agreements will be completed and the Company acquire title to those Tenements prior to the Company listing on the ASX.

(e) Transfer of Tenements

The transfer of a number of the tenements to which the Company has entered into agreements to acquire are subject to the receipt of the consent of the relevant Minister of the Western Australian Government. While the Company sees no reason that the Minister will withhold his consent, if such consent is not received, the Company will not have any legal right to receive those tenements. The Company will undertake all actions needed to try and ensure that its interest in those tenements can be properly registered with the Western Australian government department.

(f)

Tenement applications

A number of the tenements in which the Company is seeking to acquire an interest are, as at the date of this Prospectus ungranted tenements. If those tenements are not granted by the relevant Government authority and are not capable of being transferred to the Company, the Company will lose the benefit of the areas of those tenements for its exploration activities. There is no guarantee that any of all of those tenement applications will be granted and transferred to the Company.

(g) Title risk

Subsequently, the Company’s mining and exploration activities will be dependent upon the maintenance (including renewal) of the tenements in which the Company has or acquires an interest. Maintenance of the Company’s tenements will be dependent on, among other things, the Company’s ability to meet the licence conditions imposed by relevant authorities. Although the Company has no reason to think that the tenements in which it currently has an interest will not be renewed, there is no assurance that such renewals will be given as a matter of course and there is no assurance that new conditions will not be imposed by the relevant authority.

(h)

Environmental risks

The Company is subject to a number of laws and regulations regarding the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations set various standards regulating certain aspects of health and environmental quality and provide for penalties and other liabilities for the violation of such standards and establish, in certain circumstances, obligations to remediate current and former facilities and locations where operations are or were conducted. Significant liability could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean-up costs, or penalties and the Company’s social licence may be questioned in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous occupiers or non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations. The Company proposes to minimise these risks by conducting its activities in an environmentally responsible manner, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and where possible, by carrying appropriate insurance coverage.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 41

(i) Native title and Indigenous heritage

In relation to tenements which the Company has an interest in or will in the future acquire such an interest, there may be areas over which legitimate common law native title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If native title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to tenements (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected.

Please refer to the Solicitor’s Report on Tenements in Section 10 of this Prospectus for further details.

The Directors will closely monitor the potential effect of native title claims involving tenements in which the Company has or may have an interest.

(j) Climate Change

Climate change is a risk the Company has considered, particularly related to its operations in the exploration and mining industry. Climate change risks attributable to the Company include:

  • (i) the emergence of new expanded regulations associated with transitioning to a lower carbon economy and market changes related to climate mitigation. The Company may be impacted by changes to local or international compliance regulations related to climate change mitigation efforts; and

  • (ii) climate change may cause certain physical and environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the Company, including events such as increased severity of weather patterns and incidence of extreme weather events. All these risks associated with climate change may significantly change the industry in which the Company operates.

(k) Land Access

There is a substantial level of regulation and restriction on the ability of exploration and mining companies to have access to land in Australia. Negotiations with both Native Title and land owners/occupiers are generally required before the Company can access land for exploration or mining activities. Inability to access, or delays experienced in accessing, the land may impact on the Company’s activities.

(l) Operational risk

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors including logistics, occupational health and safety, environmental management and compliance and failures in internal controls and financial fraud. To the extent that such matters may be in the control of the Company, the Company will mitigate these risks through management and supervision controls.

In addition, the investments of the Company may be affected by various factors which are beyond the control of the Company, including adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, plant and equipment, fire, explosions and other incidents beyond the control of the Company.

The operations of the Company may also be affected by natural disasters, epidemics, terrorist attacks and other disasters which may materially and adversely affect the economy in Australia and the Company's business.

(m) Funding risks

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 42

The Company has no operating revenue and is unlikely to generate any operating revenue unless and until one or more of its projects are successfully developed and production commences. Exploration and development costs and pursuit of its business plan will reduce the Company's current cash reserves and the amount raised under the Offer.

Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to Shareholders, may be undertaken at lower prices than the then market price (or Offer Price) or may involve restrictive covenants which limit the Company's operations and business strategy. Debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities.

No assurances can be made that appropriate capital or funding, if and when needed, will be available on terms favourable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its activities and this could have a material adverse effect on the Company's activities and could affect the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company may undertake additional offerings of Shares and of securities convertible into Shares in the future. The increase in the number of Shares issued and outstanding and the possibility of sales of such shares may have a depressive effect on the price of Shares. In addition, as a result of such additional Shares, the voting power of the Company's existing shareholders will be diluted.

(n) Regulatory risks

The Company's operations require approvals from regulatory authorities which may not be forthcoming, either at all or in a timely manner, or which may not be able to be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company. The Company cannot guarantee that any or all requisite approvals will be obtained. A failure to obtain any approval would mean that the Company may be restricted, either in part or absolutely, from exploration, development and mining activities.

(o) Contractors and third parties

The Company intends to outsource substantial parts of its exploration activities pursuant to services contracts with third-party contractors. The Company is yet to enter into these formal arrangements. The Directors are unable to predict the risk of financial failure or default of the insolvency of any of the contractors that will be used by the Company in any of its activities or other managerial failure by any of the other service providers used by the Company for any activity. Contractors may also underperform their obligations of their contract, and in the event that their contract is terminated, the Company may not be able to find a suitable replacement on satisfactory terms.

(p) Safety

Safety is a fundamental risk for any exploration and production company in relation to personal injury, damage to property and equipment and other losses. The occurrence of any of these risks could result in legal proceedings against the Company and/or key personnel and substantial losses to the Company due to injury or loss of life, damage or destruction of property, regulatory investigation, and penalties or suspension of operations. Damage occurring to third parties because of such risks may give rise to claims against the Company.

(q) Reliance on Key Management

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially on its senior management and its key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

(r) Metallurgical recoveries

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 43

Mining exploration projects are high risk. Each ore body is unique and the nature of the mineralisation, the occurrence and grade of the ore, as well as its behaviour during mining can never be wholly predicted. Estimations of a mineral deposit are not precise calculations but are based on interpretation and on samples from drilling which represent a very small sample of the entire ore body.

The applications of metallurgical test work results and conclusions to the process design, recoveries and throughput depend on the accuracy of the test work and assumption that the sample tests are representative of the ore body as a whole. There is a risk associated with the scale-up of laboratory and pilot plant results to a commercial scale and with the subsequent design and construction of any plant.

(s)

Commodity prices

Commodity prices, including gold, copper and nickel, can fluctuate rapidly and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include world demand for commodities, production cost levels, macroeconomic factors such as expectations regarding inflation, interest rates and global and regional demand for, and supply of, commodities as well as general global economic conditions. These factors may have an adverse effect on the Company’s activities as well as the Company’s ability to fund those activities.

(t) Insurance

The Company intends to insure its operations in accordance with industry practice. However, in certain circumstances, the Company’s insurance may not be available or of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the Company. In addition, there is a risk that an insurer defaults in the payment of a legitimate claim by the Company.

(u) Contractual Disputes

As with any contract, there is a risk that the business could be disrupted in situations where there is a disagreement or dispute in relation to a term of the contract. Should such a disagreement or dispute occur, this may have an adverse impact on the Company's operations and performance generally. It is not possible for the Company to predict or protect itself against all such risks.

5.2 General Risks

(a) COVID-19

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global economy and the ability of businesses, individuals, and governments to operate. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances, it is difficult to predict the impact of the pandemic on the Company’s business (or on the operations of other businesses on which it relies), and there is no guarantee that the Company’s efforts to address the adverse impacts of COVID-19 will be effective. The impact to date has included periods of significant volatility in financial, commodities and other markets. This volatility, if it continues could have an adverse impact on the Company’s people, communities, suppliers or otherwise on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

The pandemic may lead to delays or restrictions regarding land access and the Company’s ability to freely move people and equipment to and from the Company’s exploration projects, leading to delays and cost increases.

There continues to be considerable uncertainty as to the duration and further impact of COVID-19, including (but not limited to) government, regulatory or health authority actions, work stoppages, lockdowns, quarantines, and travel restrictions.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 44

The impact of some or all of these factors could cause significant disruption to the Company’s operations and financial performance.

(b) Securities investments

Applicants should be aware that there are risks associated with any securities investment.

Prior to the Offer, there was no public market for the Shares. There is no guarantee that an active trading market in the Shares will develop or that the price of the Shares will increase. The prices at which the Shares trade may be above or below the Offer price and may fluctuate in response to a number of factors.

Further, the stock market is prone to price and volume fluctuations. There can be no guarantee that trading prices will be sustained. These factors may materially affect the market price of the Shares, regardless of Company's operational performance.

(c)

Economic risk

Changes in the general economic climate in which Company operates may adversely affect the financial performance of Company. Factors that may contribute to that general economic climate include the level of direct and indirect competition against the Company, include, but not are but not limited to:

  • (i) general economic conditions;

  • (ii) changes in Government policies, taxation and other laws;

  • (iii) the strength of the equity and share markets in Australia and throughout the world;

  • (iv) movement in, or outlook on, exchange rates, interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (v) industrial disputes in Australia and overseas;

  • (vi) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (vii) financial failure or default by an entity with which the Company may become involved in a contractual relationship; and

  • (viii) natural disasters, social upheaval or war.

(d) Dilution

In certain circumstances, the Directors may issue equity securities without any vote or action by Shareholders. If the Company were to issue any equity securities the percentage ownership of Shareholders may be reduced and diluted.

(e) Share market

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. The market price of the Securities may be subject to fluctuation and may be affected by many factors including, but not limited to, the following:

  • (i) general economic outlook;

  • (ii) interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (iii) currency fluctuations;

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 45

  • (iv) commodity price fluctuations;

  • (v) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (vi) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (vii) terrorism or other hostilities.

There is also no guarantee that an active market in the Securities will develop or that the price of the Securities will increase. There may be relatively few buyers or sellers of Securities on the ASX at any particular time.

(f) Legal Proceedings

Legal proceedings may arise from time to time in the course of the business of the Company. Legal proceedings brought by third parties including but not limited to customers, business partners or employees could negatively impact the business in the case where the impact of such litigation is greater than or outside the scope of the Company’s insurance. As at the date of this Prospectus, there are no material legal proceedings affecting the Company and the Directors are not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against or affecting the Company.

(g)

Unforeseen expenses

While the Company is not aware of any expenses that may need to be incurred that have not been taken into account, if such expenses were subsequently incurred, the expenditure proposals of the Company may be adversely affected.

(h) Macro-economic risks Changes in the general economic outlook in Australia and globally may impact the performance of the Company. Such changes may include:

  • (i) uncertainty in the Australian economy or increases in the rate of inflation resulting from domestic or international conditions (including movements in domestic interest rates and reduced economic activity);

  • (ii) increases in expenses (including the cost of goods and services used by the Company);

  • (iii) new or increased government taxes, duties or changes in taxation laws; and

  • (iv) fluctuations in equity markets in Australia and internationally.

A prolonged and significant downturn in general economic conditions may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s trading and financial performance.

(i) Broader general risks

There are also a number of broader general risks which may impact the Company’s performance. These include:

  • (i) abnormal stoppages in normal business operations due to factors such as war, political or civil unrest, infrastructure failure or industrial disruption; and

  • (ii) higher than budgeted costs associated with the provision of service offerings.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 46

(j) Currency risk

The Company may operate in multiple international jurisdictions and its products may be priced in foreign currencies, which exposes the Company to multiple currencies and their future currency fluctuations, which may affect future profitability of the Company.

(k) Taxation risk

The acquisition and disposal of Shares will have tax consequences which will differ for each investor depending on their individual financial circumstances. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice regarding the tax and other consequences of acquiring Shares. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisers accept no liability or responsibility with respect to any tax consequences of applying for Shares under this Prospectus.

(l) Accounting standards

Changes to any applicable accounting standards or to any assumptions, estimates or judgments applied by management in connection with complex accounting matters may adversely impact the Company’s financial statements, results or condition.

In light of the Company’s size and nature, the Board considers that the current Board composition and structure is a cost effective and practical method of directing and managing the Company. As the Company’s activities develop in size, nature and scope, the size of the Board and the implementation of additional corporate governance policies and structures will be reviewed.

The Company’s main corporate governance policies and practices as at the date of this Prospectus are detailed below. The Company’s full Corporate Governance Plan is available in a dedicated corporate governance information section of the Company’s website at www.mambaexploration.com.au.

(a) Board of Directors

The Board is responsible for the corporate governance of the Company. The Board develops strategies for the Company, reviews strategic objectives and monitors performance against those objectives. Clearly articulating the division of responsibilities between the Board and management will help manage expectations and avoid misunderstandings about their respective roles and accountabilities.

In general, the Board assumes (amongst others) the following responsibilities:

  • (i) providing leadership and setting the strategic objectives of the Company;

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 50

  • (ii) appointing and when necessary replacing the Executive Directors and the Managing Director;

  • (iii) approving the appointment and when necessary replacement, of other senior executives;

  • (iv) undertaking appropriate checks before appointing a person, or putting forward to security holders a candidate for election, as a director;

  • (v) overseeing management's implementation of the Company's strategic objectives and its performance generally;

  • (vi) approving operating budgets and major capital expenditure;

  • (vii) overseeing the integrity of the company's accounting and corporate reporting systems including the external audit;

  • (viii) overseeing the company's process for making timely and balanced disclosure of all material information concerning the Company that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of the Company's securities;

  • (ix) ensuring that the Company has in place an appropriate risk management framework and setting the risk appetite within which the board expects management to operate; and

  • (x) monitoring the effectiveness of the Company's governance practices.

The Company is committed to ensuring that appropriate checks are undertaken before the appointment of a Director and has in place written agreements with each Director which detail the terms of their appointment.

(b)

Composition of the Board

Election of Board members is substantially the province of the Shareholders in general meeting. The Board currently consists of 1 Executive Director (who is a significant Shareholder) and 2 Non-Executive Directors (each of whom is independent). As the Company’s activities develop in size, nature and scope, the composition of the Board and the implementation of additional corporate governance policies and structures will be reviewed.

(c) Identification and management of risk

The Board’s collective experience will assist in the identification of the principal risks that may affect the Company’s business. Key operational risks and their management will be recurring items for deliberation at Board meetings.

  • (d)

Ethical standards

The Board is committed to the establishment and maintenance of appropriate ethical standards.

(e)

Independent professional advice

Subject to the Chairman’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld), the Directors, at the Company’s expense, may obtain independent professional advice on issues arising in the course of their duties.

(f)

Trading policy

The Board has adopted a policy that sets out the guidelines on the sale and purchase of securities in the Company by its key management personnel (i.e. Directors and, if

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 51

applicable, any employees reporting directly to the Executive Directors). The policy generally provides that the written acknowledgement of the Non-Executive Chairman (or the Board in the case of the Non-Executive Chairman) must be obtained prior to trading.

(g)

Diversity policy

The Board has adopted a diversity policy which provides a framework for the Company to achieve, amongst other things, a diverse and skilled workforce, a workplace culture characterised by inclusive practices and behaviours for the benefit of all staff, improved employment and career development opportunities for women and a work environment that values and utilises the contributions of employees with diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives.

(h)

Audit and Risk Committee

The Company will not have a separate audit committee until such time as the Board is of a sufficient size and structure, and the Company’s operations are of a sufficient magnitude for a separate committee to be of benefit to the Company.

In the meantime, the full Board will carry out the duties that would ordinarily be assigned to that committee, including but not limited to, monitoring and reviewing any matters of significance affecting financial reporting and compliance, the integrity of the financial reporting of the Company, the Company’s internal financial control system and risk management systems and the external audit function.

Ultimate responsibility for risk management will rest with the full Board which monitors and manages material risks at each Board Meeting where it considers the Company’s Risk Matrix.

The Board has adopted a formal Audit and Risk Committee Charter.

(i)

Remuneration and Nominee committee

The Company will not have a separate remuneration and nominee committee until such time as the Board is of a sufficient size and structure, and the Company’s operations are of a sufficient magnitude for a separate committee to be of benefit to the Company.

The full Board will carry out the duties that would ordinarily be assigned to that committee, ensuring that the level and composition of remuneration provided to attract and retain high quality directors and employees is commercially appropriate and targeted to align with the interests of the Company.

The Board will ensure that no Director or senior executive will be involved in deciding his or her own remuneration.

The Board has adopted a formal Remuneration and Nominee Committee Charter.

(j)

External audit

The Company in general meetings is responsible for the appointment of the external auditors of the Company, and the Board from time to time will review the scope, performance and fees of those external auditors following the recommendation from the Audit Committee (if applicable).

(k) Internal audit

The Company does not have an internal audit function. The Board considers the Board and financial control function in conjunction with its risk management policy is sufficient for a Company of its size and complexity.

6.8 Departures from Recommendations

Following admission to the Official List, the Company will be required to report any departures from the Recommendations in its annual financial report.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 52

The Company's compliance and departures from the Recommendations as at the date of this Prospectus are detailed in the table below.

7.5 Notes to and forming part of the Pro Forma Statement of Financial Position

NOTE 1: The significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information included in this Report have been set out below.

(a) Basis of preparation of Historical Financial Information

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement, but not all the disclosure requirements of the Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (‘ AIFRS ’), other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Australian Accounting Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial information has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for derivatives and available-for-sale financial assets that have been measured at fair value. The carrying values of recognised assets and liabilities that are hedged are adjusted to record changes in the fair value attributable to the risks that are being hedged. Non-current assets and disposal group’s held-for-sale are measured at the lower of carrying amounts and fair value less costs to sell.

(b) Going Concern

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the success of the fundraising under the Prospectus. The Directors believe that the Company will continue as a going concern. As a result the financial information has been prepared on a going concern basis. However should the fundraising under the Prospectus be unsuccessful, the entity may not be able to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company not continue as a going concern.

(c) Reporting Basis and Conventions

The report is also prepared on an accrual basis and is based on historic costs and does not take into account changing money values or, except where specifically stated, current valuations of non-current assets.

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the company in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

(d) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and in the bank’s short term deposits with an original maturity not exceeding three months and if greater than three months, principal amounts can be redeemed in full with interest payable at the same cash rate from inception as per the agreement with each bank, net of bank overdrafts.

(e) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost when the Company becomes obliged to make payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. The amounts are non-interestbearing, unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 58

(f) Contributed equity

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown as a deduction from the equity proceeds.

(g) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

(h) Income tax

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date.

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the statement of financial position date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:

  • (i) except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

  • (ii) in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry- forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry- forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:

  • (iii) except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

  • (iv) in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each statement of financial position date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 59

sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Unrecognised deferred tax assets and liabilities are reassessed at each statement of financial position date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be utilised.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

(i) Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The Directors evaluate estimates and judgements based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic

Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the consolidated entity operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the consolidated entity unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Broadly, the Prospectus will offer up to 35,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.20 each to raise up to $7 million before costs (‘ the Offer ’). The Offer is subject to a minimum subscription level of 25,000,000 to raise $5 million.

Mamba was incorporated on 23 September 2020.

Expressions defined in the Prospectus have the same meaning in this Report. BDO Corporate Finance (WA) Pty Ltd ( ‘BDO’ ) holds an Australian Financial Services Licence (AFS Licence Number 316158) and our Financial Services Guide (‘ FSG ’) has been included in this report in the event you are a retail investor. Our FSG provides you with information on how to contact us, our services, remuneration, associations, and relationships.

This Report has been prepared for inclusion in the Prospectus. We disclaim any assumption of responsibility for any reliance on this Report or on the Financial Information to which it relates for any purpose other than that for which it was prepared.

2. Scope

You have requested BDO to perform a limited assurance engagement in relation to the historical and pro forma historical financial information described below and disclosed in the Prospectus.

The historical and pro forma historical financial information is presented in the Prospectus in an abbreviated form, insofar as it does not include all of the presentation and disclosures required by Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements

BDO Corporate Finance (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 27 124 031 045 AFS Licence No 316158 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee. BDO Corporate Finance (WA) Pty Ltd and BDO Australia Ltd are members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited by guarantee, and form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.

applicable to general purpose financial reports prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001.

You have requested BDO to review the following historical financial information (together the ‘Historical Financial Information’ ) of Mamba included in section 7 of the Prospectus:

  • the audited historical Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income and Statement of Cash Flows for Mamba for the period from incorporation to 30 September 2020;

  • the audited historical Statement of Financial Position of Mamba as at 30 September 2020;

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the stated basis of preparation, being the recognition and measurement principles contained in Australian Accounting Standards and the Company’s adopted accounting policies. The Historical Financial Information has been extracted from the financial report of Mamba for the period ended 30 September 2020 which was audited by BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards. BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd issued an unmodified audit opinion on the financial report.

Pro Forma Historical Financial Information

You have requested BDO to review the following pro forma historical financial information (the ‘Pro Forma Historical Financial Information’ ) of Mamba included in the Prospectus:

  • the pro forma historical Statement of Financial Position as at 30 September 2020.

The Pro Forma Historical Financial Information has been derived from the historical financial information of Mamba, after adjusting for the effects of the subsequent events described in Section 6 of this Report and the pro forma adjustments described in Section 7 of this Report. The stated basis of preparation is the recognition and measurement principles contained in Australian Accounting Standards applied to the historical financial information and the events or transactions to which the pro forma adjustments relate, as described in Section 7 of this Report, as if those events or transactions had occurred as at the date of the historical financial information. Due to its nature, the Pro Forma Historical Financial Information does not represent the company’s actual or prospective financial position or financial performance.

The Pro Forma Historical Financial Information has been compiled by Mamba to illustrate the impact of the events or transactions described in Section 6 and Section 7 of the Report on Mamba’s financial position as at 30 September 2020. As part of this process, information about Mamba’s financial position has been extracted by Mamba from its financial statement for the period ended 30 September 2020.

3. Directors’ responsibility

The directors of Mamba are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Historical Financial Information and Pro Forma Historical Financial Information, including the selection and determination of pro forma adjustments made to the Historical Financial Information and included in the Pro Forma Historical Financial Information. This includes responsibility for such internal controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of Historical Financial Information and Pro Forma Historical Financial Information are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

4. Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express limited assurance conclusions on the Historical Financial Information and the Pro Forma Historical Financial Information. We have conducted our engagement in accordance with the Standard on Assurance Engagement ASAE 3450 Assurance Engagements involving Corporate Fundraisings and/or Prospective Financial Information .

Our limited assurance procedures consisted of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A limited assurance engagement is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain reasonable assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in a reasonable assurance engagement. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Our engagement did not involve updating or re-issuing any previously issued audit or limited assurance reports on any financial information used as a source of the financial information.

5. Conclusion

Historical Financial Information

Based on our limited assurance engagement, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Historical Financial Information, as described in section 7 of the Prospectus, and comprising:

  • the audited historical Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income and Statement of Cash Flows for Mamba for the period from incorporation to 30 September 2020;

  • the audited historical Statement of Financial Position of Mamba as at 30 September 2020;

is not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with the stated basis of preparation, as described in Section 2 of this Report.

Pro Forma Historical Financial information

Based on our limited assurance engagement, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Pro Forma Historical Financial Information as described in the Appendices to this Report, and comprising:

  • the pro forma historical Statement of Financial Position of Mamba as at 30 June 2020,

is not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with the stated basis of preparation, as described in Section 2 of this Report.

6. Subsequent Events

The pro-forma statement of financial position reflects the following events that have occurred subsequent to 30 September 2020:

  • On 9 October 2020, the Company issued 3,000,000 ordinary shares at $0.0001 per share to raise a total of $300;

  • On 9 October 2020, the Company issued 4,000,000 options exercisable at $0.25, with an expiry date on the 31 January 2024 to the directors (‘ Director Options’ ). The Director Options have been valued at $480,000 using the Black Scholes option pricing model and have been offset against accumulated losses; and

  • The Company issued 5,333,333 ordinary shares at $0.075 per share to raise $79,750.

Apart from the matters dealt with in this Report, and having regard to the scope of this Report and the information provided by the Directors, to the best of our knowledge and belief no other material transaction or event outside of the ordinary business of Mamba not described above, has come to our attention that would require comment on, or adjustment to, the information referred to in our Report or that would cause such information to be misleading or deceptive.

7. Assumptions Adopted in Compiling the Pro-forma Statement of Financial Position

The pro forma historical Statement of Financial Position is shown in section of the Prospectus. This has been prepared based on Mamba’s statement of financial position as at 30 September 2020, the subsequent events set out in Section 6, and the following transactions and events relating to the issue of Shares under this Prospectus:

  • The issue of 35,000,000 Shares at an offer price of $0.20 each to raise $7 million before costs pursuant to the Prospectus, based on the maximum subscription;

  • The issue of 25,000,000 Shares at an offer price of $0.20 each to raise $5 million before costs pursuant to the Prospectus, based on the minimum subscription;

  • Cash costs of the Offer are estimated to be approximately $520,000 and $640,000 for the minimum and maximum raises respectively. The costs directly attributable to the capital raising being $376,005 and $508,959 under the minimum and maximum raise respectively, are offset against contributed equity. The remaining costs of the Offer are expensed through accumulated losses; and

  • Mamba will issue 17,650,000 shares at $0.20 per share for the acquisition of the exploration projects per the Tenement Sale Agreement.

  • The reserves balance has been adjusted to reflect the proposed issue of 4,000,000 options exercisable at $0.25, with an expiry date that is three years from issue to the lead manager (‘ Lead Manager Options ’). The Lead Manager Options have been valued at $456,000 using the Black Scholes option pricing model and have been offset against contributed equity as a cost of the Public Offer.

  • The reserves balance has been adjusted to reflect the proposed issue of 2,000,000 options exercisable at $0.25, with an expiry date that is three years from issue to the Directors and Management (‘ Directors and Management Options ’). The Directors and Management Options have been valued at $228,000 using the Black Scholes option pricing model and have been offset against accumulated losses.

8. Independence

BDO is a member of BDO International Ltd. BDO does not have any interest in the outcome of the proposed IPO other than in connection with the preparation of this Report and participation in due diligence procedures, for which professional fees will be received. BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd is the auditor of Mamba for which normal professional fees are received.

9. Disclosures

This Report has been prepared, and included in the Prospectus, to provide investors with general information only and does not take into account the objectives, financial situation or needs of any specific investor. It is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice and potential investors should not make specific investment decisions in reliance on the information contained in this Report. Before acting or relying on any information, potential investors should consider whether it is appropriate for their objectives, financial situation or needs.

Without modifying our conclusions, we draw attention to Section 2 of this Report, which describes the purpose of the financial information, being for inclusion in the Prospectus. As a result, the financial information may not be suitable for use for another purpose.

BDO has consented to the inclusion of this Report in the Prospectus in the form and context in which it is included. At the date of this Report this consent has not been withdrawn. However, BDO has not authorised the issue of the Prospectus. Accordingly, BDO makes no representation regarding, and takes no responsibility for, any other statements or material in or omissions from the Prospectus.

Yours faithfully

Executive Summary

Mining Insights Pty Ltd (Mining Insights) was requested by Mamba Exploration Limited (“Mamba Exploration” or “Company”) to prepare an Independent Geologist Report (“IGR” or "Report"). The IGR is to be included in a prospectus issued by the Company and dated 10 December 2020 for an initial public offer of 25,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.20 each to raise $5,000,000 (Minimum Subscription) (before costs). Oversubscriptions for up to a further 10,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.20 each to raise an additional $2,000,000 may be accepted (Prospectus) and listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX).

This Report has been prepared as a public document, in the format of an independent specialist’s report and in accordance with the guidelines of the Australasian Code for Public Reporting of Technical Assessments and Valuations of Mineral Assets – the 2015 VALMIN Code (VALMIN) and the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves – the 2012 JORC Code (JORC).

The funds raised will be used for exploration and evaluation of the project areas in Western Australia. This IGR details four principal project areas (Darling Range, Ashburton, Kimberley and Calyerup Creek) in Western Australia.

The Independent Geologist’s Report has been prepared on information available up to 8 December 2020 and Mining Insights is not aware of any material change to the company’s mineral interests since that date. A draft of the technical component of the report was provided to Mamba Exploration, along with a written request to identify any material errors or omissions before lodgement.

Darling Range Project

The Darling Range project comprises of two granted exploration licenses (Black Hill and Batty Bog area) and one exploration licence application (Mistake Creek area). The project covers 26 blocks or approximately 75km[2] . The project is located between 100km and 120km northeast of Perth. The nearby country towns include Northam, Toodyay and New Norcia and Gingin being 40km to the west.

The project covers parts of the northern portion of the high-grade Jimperding Metamorphic Belt and associated peripheral migmatites. This belt is in the Western Gneiss Terrain, which is the western-most province of the Archaean Yilgarn Block. Outcrops within the project area were noted to be fairly poor and were dominated by North trending dolerite dykes and quartz/quartzite ridges which appear to be structurally controlled.

The previous exploration includes rock chip sampling and Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drilling. Within the Black Hills tenement, there are several old workings located in the area. Some grey quartz vein float is present around some of the old shafts and most appear to be located on or near banded iron formation float.

Additionally, within the Black Hills and Batty Bog tenements, there is a circular magnetic feature, which is interpreted to be an intrusion. Intrusive related nickel, copper and PGE systems are known to occur in the district and the feature has been untested. This along with the gold anomaly on the project represent a significant target.

Calyerup Creek Project

The Calyerup Creek Project which is comprised of one exploration licence covers 3 blocks for approximately 8.5km[2] . It is located approximately 12Km east of Jerramangup township in the Great Southern region of Western Australia.

The Calyerup Creek prospect located on the southern margin of the Yilgarn Block close to the contact with the Albany Fraser mobile belt. Gold mineralization at Calyerup Creek occurs within an S-shaped belt of shallow to steeply dipping granulites and gneisses approximately six by two kilometres in dimension. Historical exploration includes shallow RC drilling.

Calyerup Creek is an early-stage exploration project in the Albany Frazer tectonic zone. It covers the high-grade Metamorphic Craton Margin setting. The historical work carried out is limited in nature with shallow drilling, however, indications of significant mineralisation warrants follow up exploration.

Ashburton Project

Exploration licences E08/2913 and E09/2332 and Exploration licence applications E08/3190 and E 08/3266 form the Ashburton Project covering 193 blocks or approximately 580km[2] of the established mineralogical terrain of in the eastern part of the Gascoyne Mining District of Western Australia. The project is approximately 100km south of Onslow, 240km west of Paraburdoo, and 220km north-east of Carnarvon.

The project area lies to the east of the Carnarvon Basin within early Proterozoic rocks of the Morrissey Metamorphic Suite from the Capricorn Orogen in the Gascoyne Complex. Gold mineralisation is associated with quartz veins hosted in the early Proterozoic schists and gneisses of the Morrissey Suite. The gold mineralisation is commonly, but not universally, associated with malachite, chalcopyrite and minor galena with a highly variable structural control and orientation.

Early exploration comprised small scale prospecting chiefly for gold and base metals which is evident by the number of shallow prospecting pits. More recently, work comprised geological mapping around known occurrences, rock chip and stream sediment sampling, reverse circulation (RC) drilling and an induced polarisation interpretation. The project area is prospective given it lies on a major regional structure which separates into numerous “horsetail” structures within the project. This regional setting is similar to the geological setting of the Glenburgh Gold Project (Gascoyne Resources) which contains ~1.0Moz of gold.

Kimberley Project

The Kimberley Project comprises of 3 sub-projects in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. The project includes the Copper Flats, Ruby Plains and Speewah East areas.

The Copper Flats area is comprised of five exploration licence applications covering 342 blocks or approximately 1,025km[2] and is centred approximately 125km east-northeast of Halls Creek, and 215km south of Kununurra. The project area comprises Ord Basin sediments and volcanic within the Hardman Syncline. The Copper Flats area has been explored since the 1970s, with numerous reports of visible copper mineralisation in outcrop. The previous exploration includes rock chip and channel sampling along with RC drilling. The Copper Flats is an early-stage exploration area with excellent first pass results. Past exploration has identified areas of strong geochemical anomalism in favourable structural settings. The

interpretation of drilling and mapping suggests that the copper mineralisation at Copper Flats is both a lateral stratabound mineralisation and a vertical narrow structurally controlled mineralisation.

The Ruby Plains area is comprised of four granted exploration licences and three exploration licence applications covering 287 blocks or approximately 860km[2] . The project is located approximately 50km from Halls Creek. The area is located within the Halls Creek Orogenic Belt, one of the principal tectonic elements of the Kimberley Region. Cobalt (Co)-manganese (Mn) mineralisation is present in the Ruby Plains Group, which is the main stratigraphic unit in the area. Historical exploration across the project area has focussed predominantly on Mn mineralisation (with associated Co mineralisation) with mapping, magnetic surveys, rock chip sampling and drilling. The Ruby Plains Sub-Project is an early-stage exploration project. Cobalt, Manganese and copper prospectivity of the area has been well established by past explorers.

The Speewah East area is located approximately 50km south-west of Kununurra in the East Kimberly of Western Australia. The sub-project comprises one exploration licence and one exploration licence application. The project covers 160 blocks for approximately 480km[2] . The tenements are located on the western and relatively undeformed margin of the Kimberley Block, where they cover an antiformal structure known as the Speewah Dome and a section of the Greenvale Fault that hosts fluorite and barite mineralisation. Limited historical exploration has been completed to date. Potential for high-grade gold targets exists in structural and litho-structural traps. Exploration activities should focus for high-grade gold targets in significant regional dome structures with major regional faults of gold-bearing arsenic quartz chlorite veins in both multiple flat dipping thrusts and vertical shears associated with gold-base metal epithermal quartz veins, dolerite dykes and chloritic shears. The area is also considered prospective for intrusive related nickel and copper mineralisation similar the Savannah deposit to the south.

Summary

Mining Insights concludes that the Mamba Exploration portfolio of projects presents exposure to an attractive range of grassroots exploration opportunities. Further exploration and evaluation work is warranted on each of the Projects.

Mamba Exploration’ proposed exploration programme consists of exploration and drilling & resource evaluation phases. Mining Insights’ considers Mamba Exploration’s exploration strategy to be justified and appropriate. A summary of the proposed exploration expenditure is shown in the table below.

2 Overview of Mamba Exploration and its assets

2.1 Introduction to Mamba Exploration

Mamba Exploration Ltd (Mamba Exploration or the Company) is an unlisted mineral exploration company incorporated in September 2020, with its headquarters in Perth. Through a series of acquisitions and options, Mamba Exploration has built a diverse portfolio of exploration projects in Western Australia. Mamba Exploration is focused on the exploration for nickel, copper and gold. The projects are located in the Darling Range east of Perth, in the northern Gascoyne / southern Ashburton, Kimberly and Great Southern regions of Western Australia.

2.2 Company Strategy

The Company is now seeking to list on the ASX to fund the future evaluation and assessment of the exploration projects. Mamba Exploration’s initial exploration focus is directed predominately towards nickel, copper and gold in the established mineral districts (Figure 2:1). The four assets are:

  • Darling Range Project – nickel, copper & PGE;

  • Calyerup Creek – gold;

  • Ashburton – gold and

  • Kimberly (Speewah East, Copper Flats and Ruby Plains) – nickel, copper, cobalt, silver & gold.

2.4 Climate

The climate across Western Australia varies from the semi-continental Mediterranean with relatively cool, wet winters contrasted by hot and dry summers in the southwest and much of the coast, to semi-arid and desert conditions in the east, to tropical in the north.

Daily maximum temperatures range from 30°C to approximately 45°C during the summer months (December to February), falling to minimum temperatures of 15°C to 25°C during winter. The average annual rainfall is in the order of 266 mm, with a large proportion of this rain falling in the winter months. There are 80–100 days of rain per year. Average wind speeds are generally less than 3 m/sec, with the predominant wind direction being from the northeast and northwest.

3 Darling Range Project

3.1 Introduction

The Darling Range project comprises of two granted exploration licenses (E 70/5147 & E 70/5329) and one exploration licence application (ELA 70/5403). The project covers 26 blocks or approximately 75km[2] .

3.2 Location, Access & Topography

The project is located between 100km and 120km north-east of Perth. The nearby country towns include Northam, Toodyay and New Norcia and Gingin being 40km to the west. The project is closely located to Perth and, therefore, it has multiple logistic corridors to get to and around the project area (Figure 3:1).

==> picture [296 x 286] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 3:1 Darling Range Project – Location & Access

3.3 Regional Geology

The project covers parts of the northern portion of the high-grade Jimperding Metamorphic Belt and associated peripheral migmatites. This belt is in the Western Gneiss Terrain, which is the western-most province of the Archaean Yilgarn Block.

The Jimperding Metamorphic Belt is an NNW-trending zone - possibly a truncated synclinorium - of low pressure, high grade, metasedimentary rocks with interlayered igneous lithologies. Two distinct tectono-lithological zones are noted within the belt although the boundary is poorly defined. The zones are defined firstly by a variation in metamorphic grade

from lower amphibolite facies in the far west to granulite facies in the east, and secondly by variations in lithologies (Figure 3:2).

silicates, mafic and ultramafic lithologies. These rocks are deformed by four phases of deformation but generally have a flat-lying orientation.

The eastern zone consists of moderate to steep east-dipping, thinly interlayered quartzite and BIF with lesser quartz-feldspar-biotite-(garnet) gneiss, schist, amphibolite, mafic granulite and ultramafics. The felsic rocks appear to be dominantly metasedimentary in origin. Several broad zones with quartzite and BIF markers can be traced tens of kilometres. Between Bolgart and Toodyay, an SW-trending, l-4km wide zone of mafic rocks (amphibolite, plagioclasehornblende- cummingtonite gneiss and two pyroxene granulite) is noted. On a gross scale, this mafic zone appears structurally simple, but in detail is strongly deformed by boudinaging and complex folding.

3.4 Project Geology

3.4.1 Project Geology - Black Hills

Outcrops within the project area were noted to be fairly poor and were dominated by N- trending dolerite dykes and quartz/quartzite ridges which appear to be structurally controlled. Other lithologies, including aluminous schist and amphibolite, had NNW to NW strikes, were generally poddy and had affinities to greenstone supracrustal sequences observed in the Southern Cross and Murchison Provinces (Figure 3:3).

Between Bejoording and Bolgart, outcrops and sub crops were heterogeneous both texturally and mineralogically. They ranged from strongly foliated to equigranular to porphyroblastic and varied from banded mafic granulite to amphibolite to ferruginous schist to BIF. Just south of Syrcd Road, a local magnetic high was found to coincide with an 80- 100m wide outcrop of ultramafic rocks, of which the previous sampling by Oner Exploration had returned 2900ppm Ni. North of Bolgart. outcrop was even less common due to the dominance of Quaternary sand and Tertiary laterite cover. This area includes the historical Blackboy Hill Au workings.

The bedrock geology comprised an N-trending belt of BIF and quartzite with magnetic amphibolite, quartz-feldspar-biotite gneiss and quartz-muscovite schist interbed, bounded to the cast and west by granitoid and gneiss. Many of the lithologies were podiform, tightly folded on a small scale and quartz veined. Orientation data suggests that they have been polydeformed. One stretching lineation was measured plunging steeply SE.

Inspection of the Au workings indicated that the shafts had been back-filled, but remnant spoil indicated the presence of grey quartz and a general spatial association with BIF.

Foliation orientations measured in recognisable metamorphosed supracrustal rocks (banded iron formation, quartzite and amphibolite) are like those measured in gneisses suggesting that both formed during the same deformation/metamorphic event. The foliation plane poles are scattered around a great circle at 130/35 which suggests that folding in the region is probably around a 130/35 oriented axis. This interpreted axis orientation is considerably shallower compared to the orientation of the fold axes and lineation’s measured in outcrops. The two orientations are probably the result of multiple deformation events that have affected the area.

Located within the Black Hills tenure is a couple of small historic shafts for which there are no reliable production figures. A sample of quartz veining from near to one of these shafts reported the highest rock chip sample gold assay grade of 1.16ppm Au.

Several old workings are located in the area. These have all been filled in and only shaft spoil remains. Some grey quartz vein float is present around some of the old shafts and most appear to be located on or near banded iron formation float.

3.4.2 Project Geology – Mistake Creek

The southern-most tenement in the Darling Range project is the Mistake Creek tenement, located approximately 7km west of the township of Northam.

The project area falls completely within the Jimperding Metamorphic Belt which is interpreted to form part of the Western Gneiss Terrain of the Archaean Yilgarn Block. Bedrock throughout much of the Yilgarn region consists of Archaean rock described as coarse porphyritic granite and adamellite, and leucocratic granofels of granitic-admellitic composition. Over much of the region, these rocks have been deeply weathered, forming an intensely leached, kaolinised zone under a lateritic duricrust which forms a relict peneplain thought to be of Eocene age. In some parts of the region, however, the laterite lies directly over relatively fresh granite in absence of an intervening kaolinised zone (Figure 3:4).

The Jimperding Metamorphic Belt is in the northern part of the southwestern Yilgarn Craton and comprises Archaean gneisses, arkosic paragneiss and banded-iron formation, interleaved with a variety of garnetiferous orthogneiss and ultramafic units1

3.4.3 Project Geology – Batty Bog

The northernmost tenement in the Darling Range project is the Batty Bog tenement, located approximately 12km north of New Norcia. The tenement has had very little historical exploration however based on the regional aeromagnetic data, there appears to be a circular magnetic feature which is either an intrusive feature or a highly folded banded iron formation.

3.5 Previous Exploration

Black Hills

In 1995, CRA Exploration conducted drilling on the current tenement. The programme was designed to test for Au mineralisation within the laterite and bedrock profile below previously defined surficial Au-As anomalism.

Challenge drilling completed the drilling for CRA using a custom build RAB/Aircore rig. 26 drill holes were drilled in the current project area. Each hole was sampled at 1m intervals via a cyclone into plastic bags. Approximately 500g from each 1m sample was then composited to form a 200g sample over 4m interval. Any composite sample assaying >0.1ppm Au was resampled and assayed on a 2m level. All analyses were carried out by Multilabs Perth. Significant intersection includes:

  • 93BGR016: 6m @ 0.65g/t Au from 10m

  • 93BGR011: 2m @ 0.51g/t Au from 6m

  • 93BGR015: 2m @ 0.5g/t Au from 6m

  • 93BGR089: 2m @ 1.33g/t Au from 14m

  • 93BGR090: 2m @ 1.37g/t Au from 6m

  • 93BGR093: 2m @ 0.6g/t Au from 16m

Details of the drill hole collar information and significant assay results from drilling (>0.5g/t Au) are included in Table 1 of Appendix A.

From 2011 to 2013, Fox Resources conducted a 22-rock chip sampling program on the current project area. Anomalous rock chip samples including:

  • 5160: 1720ppm Ni

  • 5159: 1450ppm Ni

  • 5174: 1610ppm Cu

  • 5162: 1500ppm Cu

  • 5173: 1060ppm Cu

  • 5164: 1020ppm Cu

Details of the rock chip sample location and significant results (>1000 ppm Cu or Ni) is included in Table 2 of Appendix A.

Mistake Creek

The tenement has had very little historical exploration however based on the regional aeromagnetic data, a package of ultramafic/mafic rocks trend through the tenement. These units to the north and east contain low-grade nickel and copper mineralisation. These units remain untested on the tenement. The tenement is adjacent to the Mandrake Resources Jimperding project.

Batty Bog

The tenement has had very little historical exploration on the tenement.

3.6 Exploration Potential

Within the Black Hills tenement, there are several old workings located in the area. Some grey quartz vein float is present around some of the old shafts and most appear to be located on or near banded iron formation float. Additionally, within the tenement, there is a circular magnetic feature, which is interpreted to be an intrusion (Figure 3:5).

Intrusive related nickel, copper and PGE systems are known to occur in the district and the feature has been untested. This along with the gold anomaly on the project represent a significant target, particularly in light of the recent nickel, copper and PGE discovery made by Chalice Gold Mines Ltd at Julimar, approximately 30km west of the project. The tenement is prospective for gold and base metals styles of mineralisation with the best opportunity being a search for narrow, high-grade gold shoots.

intrusive feature or a highly folded banded iron formation. This magnetic feature represents a compelling exploration target which warrants testing (Figure 3:5).

The Mistake Creek tenement has had very little historical exploration however based on the regional aeromagnetic data, a package of ultramafic/mafic rocks trend through the tenement. These units along strike to the north and east contain low-grade nickel and copper mineralisation which warrants testing on the tenement.

Further work which could further the project includes:

  • Geological mapping and rock chip sampling;

  • soil (or Auger) sampling of the project area;

  • A possible acquisition of more detailed airborne magnetic data to map areas of structural importance in the area;

  • Acquisition of detailed airborne electromagnetic (VTEM) data to identify conductive horizons, which may be related to massive or semi-massive sulphides;

  • Drilling in known prospects (RC and diamond) to identify form of gold bearing mineralisation, get more accurate sampling and explore potential extension of mineralisation.

4.2 Calyerup Creek - Area Geology

The Calyerup Creek prospect located on the southern margin of the Yilgarn Block close to the contact with the Albany Fraser mobile belt. The greenstone sequence is uncharacteristic of Archaean greenstone belts in the Yilgarn having an east-west strike orientation. The greenstone belt has an actuate nature and is wrapped around the southern flank of a granite dome which is a younger Proterozoic intrusive event related to the pyroxene granites of the Albany–Fraser Province. The east-west orientation of the belt and its predominantly southward dip is thought to derive from the emplacement of this granite dome to the north.

A large volume of granite porphyry and pegmatite rocks also intrudes the greenstones. The lithologies mainly consist of Archaean hornblende rich granulites and gneisses The Calyerup Creek Au workings are located within a remnant of the old Archaean sediments (Figure 4:3).

4.3 Mineralisation

Gold mineralization at Calyerup Creek occurs within an S-shaped belt of shallow to steeply dipping granulites and gneisses approximately six by two kilometres in dimension. The mafic granulites as alternating pyroxene–rich and hornblende – plagioclase rich and identified the sequence as a metamorphosed analogue of the tholeiitic basalts found throughout the Eastern Goldfields of the Yilgarn Block. Folding is rarely observed in outcrop.

At the Southern Prospect, gold mineralisation is associated with sulphide mineralisation within fine to medium-grained, layered mafic granulites. The sulphides include pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite and pyrite with lesser chalcopyrite. The mineralised zone is concordant to the layering, which dips 55º north and ranges in width from 1 metre to 10 metres. Gold mineralisation at the Central and Northern Prospects occurs within massive sub-concordant

quartz veins preferentially distributed within shear zones. The host rock is similar to that at the Southern Workings. Silicification and sulphide mineralisation, including pyrite, arsenopyrite, pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite is associated with the quartz-bearing shear zones. The mineralised zone dips 45º south-east at the Central Workings and 40-65º east at the Northern Prospect.

The Au bearing lodes in the central and southern workings appear as pegmatite like structures that were injected into the sedimentary unit. Pegmatites are themselves unusual rock units as they often contain many elements that are “rejected” by the cooling granite – and in this case, the rejected elements may have included Au that may have been in a greater concentration in the surrounding Archaean rocks. The northern workings of the Calyerup Creek prospects did not have obvious pegmatitic lodes outcropping to the surface, with the workings appearing over altered kaolinitic clays (altered pegmatites?), and chalcedonic quartz / sulphatic layers within the Archaean sedimentary units.

4.3.1 Historical Production

Gold production has been carried out on the area. The first record of production was from 1950 to 1969 where records show a total of 216 tonnes of ore was mined. The second phase of production occurred from 1981 to 1985 and was reported to be approximately 815 tonnes.

4.3.2 Exploration History

During 1987 - 1989, Aurelia Resources conducted exploration on the central and southern prospect on the current Calyerup Project area. An extensive soil sampling programme defined a ~4km long gold in soil anomaly was identified. A 38-hole RC drilling was conducted on the project with prospective grades (see Table 3 of Appendix B for details). Significant Intercepts during Aurelia Resources drilling includes:

  • CCRC001 – 4m @ 1.14g/t gold from 0m

  • CCRC002 – 5m @ 3.62g/t gold from 24m including 2m @ 7.61g/t Au

In 2011, Temby Minerals Pty Ltd explored the Calyerup Creek project. An RC drilling program was carried out, consisting of 15 holes on the north prospect and 7 holes in the central prospect. Prospective results for Au were received from the sampling program including (see Table 4 of Appendix B for details):

Significant Intercepts at Northern Prospect during Temby drilling includes:

  • TRC2 – 4m @ 1.8g/t gold form 14m including 1m @ 4.83g/t gold

  • TRC16 – 1m @ 9.89g/t gold from 61m

Drilling has been undertaken at three separate prospects on the project (Northern, Central and Southern). The central and northern prospects have had limited drilling, this drilling did intersect significant mineralisation. The southern prospect has had the bulk of the drilling, however, this drilling has only been very shallow (>25m vertical depth) and the mineralisation remains open at depth and along strike.

4.4 Exploration Potential

Calyerup Creek is an early-stage exploration project in the Albany Frazer tectonic zone. It covers the high-grade Metamorphic Craton Margin setting similar to Tropicanna and Glenburgh.

In Mining Insights’ opinion, the historical work carried out is limited in nature with shallow drilling, however, indications of significant mineralisation with drilling intersecting up to 12.7 g/t Au were identified which warrants follow up exploration. The area of Southern prospect is the highest priority drill target with drilling proposed at depth and along strike.

5 Ashburton Project

5.1 Introduction

Exploration licence E08/2913 and E09/2332 and Exploration licence applications E08/3190 and E08/3266 forms the Ashburton Project covering 193 blocks or approximately 580km[2] of the established mineralogical terrain of in the eastern part of the Gascoyne Mining District of Western Australia.

5.2 Location and Access

The project is located in the Ashburton region of Western Australia. The project is approximately 190km south of Onslow, 240km west of Paraburdoo, and 220km north-east of Carnarvon (Figure 5:1). The small community of Gascoyne Junction is situated about 90km south of the tenement. Access is possible using station tracks that run off well-graded shire roads from Carnarvon.

==> picture [181 x 260] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [258 x 260] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 5:1 Ashburton Project – Location

Tenements are clustered as Lyndon and Osbourne Well based on geographic locations.

5.3 Regional Geology

The project area lies to the east of the Carnarvon Basin within early Proterozoic rocks of the Morrissey Metamorphic Suite from the Capricorn Orogen in the Gascoyne Complex.

The Morrissey Metamorphic Suite mostly comprises lower Proterozoic pelitic and mafic schist, metamorphosed conglomerate, amphibolite, calc-silicate quartzite, marble, gneiss and migmatite. These metasediments have been intruded by two types of granitoids – the first comprises muscovite-bearing, heterogeneous granites derived from the anatexis of the

Independent Geologist Report

Mining Insights

31

==> picture [103 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

Morrissey Suite, whilst the second granitoid type consists of homogeneous biotite-granites derived from remelting of Archaean and Proterozoic crustal rocks.

The structure of the Proterozoic Morrissey suite can be defined in terms of two phases of deformation, D1 and D2. D1 occurred with the main phase of prograde metamorphism, that produced stratiform schistosity in the Morrissey Suite. This initial schistosity is then crumpled and warped between major D2 granitoid bodies. D2 deformation is reflected in tight, upright, major folds and vertical structures with an axial surface crenulation cleavage observed in the schists and gneisses. The hinge lines of these folds have moderate to steep plunges towards the northwest and southeast.

The orientation of both the D1 and D2 deformation is controlled by the granitoids, such that most of the granitoids are elongated in a northwesterly to the west-northwesterly direction.

5.4 Lyndon Area

5.4.1 Local Geology

The geology comprises early Proterozoic schist, gneiss and migmatite (some of which appear to have been derived from a more mafic protolith), which are aligned to the northwest and bounded by muscovite-biotite granites and granodiorites. Locally the granodiorites appear to have undergone prograde metamorphism which has led to the development of quartzmuscovite schists which commonly host feldspar-tourmaline pegmatites particularly in the west of the project area near Daylight Well. All of these units are intruded by late Proterozoic

Independent Geologist Report

Mining Insights

==> picture [103 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

dolerites and gabbros, forming dykes and sills that also appear to have been subjected to the regional deformation.

The development of Cainozoic laterites is poor, however, silcrete and calcrete commonly appears to be developed above the low lying but exposed mafic units particularly the late Proterozoic dolerite and gabbro. Approximately 40 to 50% of the project area comprises outcrop, which is restricted to low lying hills surrounded by areas of shallow slope scree, sheetwash and Quaternary alluvium which generally drains towards the northwest.

5.4.2 Mineralisation

Gold mineralisation located to date is associated with quartz veins hosted in the early Proterozoic schists and gneisses of the Morrissey Suite. The gold mineralisation is commonly, but not universally, associated with malachite, chalcopyrite and minor galena with a highly variable structural control and orientation.

Mineralised quartz generally has a “waxy” to “sugary” appearance and often brecciated and laminated with hematite and limonite fracture infill. The veins are generally narrow, less than 0.5m, though veins up to several metres across can occur. Another visual indicator of mineralisation is the occurrence of malachite.

Mineralised vein orientations vary from east-west striking, which includes the Lyndon Bettina, Eric’s Find and Eric’s Find South prospects, to northeast-striking, which include the Thirty Bob Well, Broken Thumb and Eric’s Find West prospects. Of these prospects, the best grades are found at the Lyndon Bettina lodes that averaged 40g/t Au when mined in the 1950s and 19931994, and the Eric’s Find vein which had returns assays over 10g/t Au. Both of these veins have east-west orientations.

5.4.3 Previous Exploration

The area has been previous explored by various companies:

  • Helix Resources NL, 1997 - stream sediment sampling and Aeromagnetic survey

  • Cove Mining NL, 1994 – stream sediment sampling and rock chips in Daylight Well area

  • Norgold Ltd, 1989 – reconnaissance, rock chips and stream sediment sampling

  • Cove Mining NL, 1988 – rock chips and costeans at Erics Find and photo-geology work.

Early exploration around Lyndon Station comprised small scale prospecting chiefly for gold and base metals which is evident by the number of shallow prospecting pits. Two phases of past mining are reported with a production of approximately 130 tonnes of ore at 43 g/t gold. The main areas of interest include the Lyndon Bettina, Eric’s Find, Broken Thumb and 30 Bob Well.

More recently in the 1980s and 1990s, work comprised geological mapping around known occurrences, trench, rock chip and stream sediment sampling and an aeromagnetic interpretation conducted by Helix Resources over the Lyndon Bettina and 30 Bob Well areas exploration. During 2009-2011, Integrated Resources Group completed three programs of exploration activities. These includes:

==> picture [103 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

  • Prospect scale mapping and 455 rock chip sampling at Bettina East, Thirty Bob Well and Broken Thumb prospects. Rock Chip results up to 46.5 g/t Au were reported from the mineralised veins at Bettina.

  • 31 RC holes drilled at Eric’s Find, Lyndon Bettina, Bettina East, Skarn, Broken Thumb and Thirty Bob Well prospects.

  • IP survey at Lyndon Bettina, Skarn and Broken Thumb.

A total of 31 RC holes were drilled for a total of 1,841m. Mining Insights has from publicly available information, confirmed significant intersections include:

  • IRBET001: 1m @ 3.43g/t Au from 21m

  • IRBET002: 2m @ 32.85g/t Au from 46m

  • IRBET008: 1m @ 9.83g/t Au from 56m

  • IRBT002: 1m @ 1.88g/t Au from 16m

  • IRBW003: 2m @ 1.03g/t Au from 38m

Full details of significant rock chip sampling results are included in Table 5 of Appendix C while drill collar locations and significant drilling results (>0.5g/t Au) are given in Table 6 & Table 7 of Appendix C.

5.4.4 Prospectivity

Below the historical shallow pits, three narrow quartz veins were modelled that represent a potential drill target. Integrated Resources announced to the ASX shallow drilling intersected up to 4m @ 21.5 g/t and 4m @ 7.7g/t in two of the veins at Lyndon Bettina prospect on 17 November 2010, however, Mining Insights has not been able to confirm these results from publicly available assay data. Figure 5:3 outlines the exploration potential of the Lyndon Bettina prospect area.

5.4.5 Exploration Potential

The Lyndon area is prospective given it lies on a major regional structure which separates into numerous “horsetail” structures within the project. This regional setting is similar to the geological setting of the Glenburgh Gold Project (owned by Gascoyne Resources) which contains ~1.0Moz of gold. Shallow auger/vacuum drilling is recommended over the project to test below the shallow transported colluvium as well as further drilling to target and better define prospective areas shown in previous exploration drilling programs.

5.5 Osbourne Well Area

The Osbourne Well tenement is located approximately 70km to the south-east of the Lyndon area and is located in the major regional structure. The area has had very little previous exploration activity.

5.5.1 Local Geology

Prospect scale geology is comprised by generally recessive tonalite - granodiorite felsic intrusive suites and strongly deformed metasedimentary sequences assigned respectively to the Moorarie Supersuite (1830 – 1780 Ma) and Morrissey/Pooranoo Metamorphics all of which have been intruded by multiple dolerite dykes assigned to the younger Mundine Well Dolerite suite (Figure 5:4).

A thin locally extensive cover of undifferentiated colluvium and calcrete deposits overlies basement sequences. Regolith weathering profiles are moderately developed with local evidence of peneplain to indurated crusts, and calcareous laterite profiles present. Calcrete deposits are considered to have formed during the Tertiary epoch and relate to paleodrainages and/or fault structures.

The major structural features are usually only seen along with the creek systems where the preferentially eroding fault and shear structures are barely exposed. Unfortunately, these zones are the most likely to contain significant mineralisation, the net effect being the most prospective zones are preferentially covered.

The terrain composed predominantly of mid-Proterozoic granite assigned to the Minnie Creek batholith is interpreted as highly prospective for gold mineralisation commonly referred to as reduced intrusive related gold deposits. Key chemical indicator elements of intrusion-related gold deposits include W, Mo, As, Sb and Bi, all of which are anomalous at prospects within the Mt Minnie tenure.

In 2016, Zenith Minerals Ltd completed a follow up trenching program at the Woods prospect to expose bedrock beneath the gold in soil anomaly. Trenching intersected up to 3m @ 1.9g/t including 1m @ 5.2g/t, however, this programme was very small and did not adequately explain the rock chip samples (Figure 5:6).

==> picture [296 x 410] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 5:6 Osbourne Well – Map of Woods Prospect Trenching by Zenith Minerals Source: Wamex a110682

5.5.3 Exploration Potential

The area is covered by around 0.5 to 2m of colluvium which masks bedrock anomalism in most cases. The wide-spaced soil sampling is also ineffective in a highly stripped regolith profile in the northern Gascoyne / southern Ashburton region. In the region there is little to no supergene dispersion of gold, as a result, the sampling completed to date does not represent an adequate test of the region, particularly given the regional structure that runs through the project remains untested. An auger drilling program could be of value to sample the mineral content of the colluvium closer to the bedrock in an effort to narrow target areas.

6.1 Copper Flats Sub-Project

The Copper Flats Sub-Project is centred approximately 125km east-northeast of Halls Creek, and 215km south of Kununurra, Western Australia (90km ESE of Savannah Ni mine).

The Copper Flats Sub-Project is comprised of five exploration licence applications (E80/4569, E80/4586, E80/5247, E80/5280 and E80/5281) covering 342 blocks or approximately 1,025km[2] .

6.1.1 Copper Flats Geology

The project area comprises Ord Basin sediments and volcanic within the Hardman Syncline. The post-orogenic Ord Basin is overlain unconformably by the Victoria Basin succession, commencing with siliciclastic sequences with minor tuff and carbonates. Carbonates and evaporates become more important towards the middle of the succession and is succeeded by siliciclastic sequences and a final carbonate shelf sequence (Figure 6:2).

Figure 6:2 Copper Flats Area – Geology (with GSWA 1:500,000 geology)

6.1.2 Mineralisation

Mineralisation found in the Copper Flats region consists of stratabound layers of chalcopyrite and chalcocite in the Nelson Shale and stratabound replacements of chalcocite with lesser pyrite and chalcopyrite and secondary malachite at the base of the Headleys Limestone and the top of the Antrim Plateau Volcanics. Vein style Mineralisation is also present in the contact zone and below the contact between the Headleys Limestone and the Antrim Plateau Volcanics as well as disseminated veinlets in possibly stratabound zones within the upper parts of the Antrim Plateau Volcanics.

The model suggested for Mineralisation is basin dewatering with copper-rich fluids, derived from the Antrim Plateau Volcanics at depth, rising along permeable zones within the Antrim Plateau Volcanics or along fault zones. Permeable zones include stratabound breccia zones that may have been flowing front or lateral breccias associated with individual lava flows. Eruption into the water may have enhanced the development of breccias. There exists the potential for significant copper deposits, with a large volume of basalt available for leaching between the synclinal axis and the known sites of mineralisation (Figure 6:3).

At Copper Flats, the distribution of mineralisation and geochemical anomalism appears to be regionally focussed in the ‘up-dip’ margins of the basin. Migration of water up-dip in the basin may be generated due to gravity recharge in the west or buoyancy of warm fluids migrating up-dip.

6.1.3 Previous Exploration

The Copper Flats area has been explored since the 1970s, with numerous reports of visible copper mineralisation in outcrop. Ord River Resources Limited (Ord) completed a small rock chip and channel sampling program on the Copper Flats project area. Sampling over the Project area has returned encouraging results, including:

  • Channel Sample of 15m @ 8% Cu & 18g/t Ag

  • Channel Sample of 5m @ 6.4% Cu & 129g/t Ag

  • Channel Sample of 0.5m @ 15.8% Cu

  • Channel Sample of 9m @ 7.2% Cu & 174g/t Ag

  • Channel Sample of 16m @ 7.8% Cu.

Results from the channel sampling at Copper Flats s included in Table 10 of Appendix D.

A 54 RC drill hole program was completed by Ord River Resources during the 2006-2011 period. Significant intercepts include:

  • RC Hole CF07RC005 - 8m @ 1.65% Cu from surface including 1m @ 5.06% Cu

  • RC Hole CF07RC028 - 7m @ 1.53% Cu from surface & 2m @ 1.07% Cu from 14m

  • RC Hole CF07RC035 -1m@ 3.1% Cu from 2m

  • RC Hole CF07RC041 - 2m @ 2.5% Cu from 8m &10m @ 0.65% Cu from 25m Including 1m @ 4.96% Cu.

==> picture [103 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

Ord announced to the market on 26 September 2007 that further mineralisation had been identified at the Copper Flats area. The mineralisation was associated with sand volcanoes and hydrothermal breccia zones. The sand volcanoes were interpreted to represent dewatering points that focussed the flow of metal-charged groundwaters (i.e. containing metal ions released to groundwaters) from the surrounding capping limestone and the underlying fractured basalt, that mineralise sand volcanoes (as egress zones). Four mineralised sand volcanoes were identified over a 720-metre extent.

6.1.4 Exploration Potential

The Copper Flats Sub-Project is an early-stage exploration project with excellent first pass results. Past exploration including trenching and surface geochemistry has identified areas of strong geochemical anomalism in favourable structural settings.

The interpretation of drilling and mapping suggests that the copper mineralisation at Copper Flats is both a lateral stratabound mineralisation and a vertical narrow structurally controlled mineralisation. It is suggested to review geophysical data and define appropriate tests for areas of known surface mineralisation, in particular for deeper sulphide mineralisation. Past explorers have proposed airborne electromagnetic (EM) as an effective method of ranking the large number of surface targets that have been generated from past work. In addition to EM, better quality/detailed aeromagnetic data may assist in defining regional structures which are associated with the copper mineralisation at Copper Flats project area.

6.2 Ruby Plains Sub-Project

Ruby Plains is located 50km south-south-west of Halls Creek through to 70km northeast of Halls Creek, forming a contiguous package of tenements covering a >90km strike of the prospective Ruby Plains Group. Also, within the project is a tenement located 11km southeast of the Savannah nickel mine.

The Ruby Plain Sub-Project is comprised of four granted exploration licences (E80/5079, E80/5232, E80/5409 and E80/5411) and three exploration licence applications (E80/5085, E80/5086 and E80/5519). The project covers 287 blocks or approximately 860km[2] .

6.2.1 Ruby Plains Geology

The Project area is located within one of the principal tectonic elements of the Kimberley Region of Western Australia, the Halls Creek Orogenic Belt. Within the Project area, Palaeoproterozoic Halls Creek Group metasediments occur to along the western extent of the tenure which is overlain by Neoproterozoic sediments of the Wolfe Basin. The main stratigraphic units in the area comprise the Ruby Plains Group and overlying Duerdin Group of sediments.

Cobalt-Manganese mineralisation is present in the Ruby Plains Group along with the basal contact of the Elliot Range Dolomite, immediately above the Mount Kinahan Sandstone. These units form the lowermost units of the Ruby Plains Group which are also the lowermost units of the Wolfe Basin, unconformably overlying the Halls Creek Group.

6.2.3 Exploration Potential

The Ruby Plains Sub-Project is an early-stage exploration project. Cobalt, Manganese and copper prospectivity of the area has been well established by past explorers.

The Project has the potential for cobalt-manganese and Nickel – Copper – Cobalt deposits. A detailed geological mapping, rock chip sampling and scout drilling are proposed to refine the understanding of the controls on, and extents of, mineralisation, and geological targets. A scout drilling program can test the depth potential of any identified mineralisation. Based on positive results being received from the initial scout phase of drilling, a systematic pattern drilling program is suggested.

The project is comprised of one exploration licence (E80/5216) and one exploration licence application (E80/5217). The project covers 160 blocks for approximately 480km[2] .

6.3.1 Speewah East Geology

The area is located near the western margin of the Halls Creek Mobile Belt, which is separated from the Kimberley Block to the west by the regional- and crustal-scale Greenvale Fault Zone. In the NiPlats project area, the Greenvale Fault Zone hosts fluorite and barite deposits, basalt feeder vents and carbonatites. Elsewhere in the Kimberley, the same fault system hosts porphyry-style Cu, epithermal Au mineralisation, and diamondiferous kimberlites.

The Kimberley Block is characterised by flat-lying and gently metamorphosed early to late Proterozoic sediments and volcanic, intruded by the Hart Dolerite and overlain in small areas by basaltic volcanic in the Cambrian.

The tenements are located on the western and relatively undeformed margin of the Kimberley Block, where they cover an antiformal structure known as the Speewah Dome and a section of the Greenvale Fault that hosts fluorite and barite mineralisation.

The dome is elongated north-south and measures approximately 50 by 30km, the core of which is dominated by the Hart Dolerite. The Hart Dolerite is a composite intrusion of dolerite and gabbro, magnetite-bearing olivine gabbro and more felsic units. Age dating shows that the dolerite was emplaced into sandstones and siltstones of the Proterozoic-age Speewah Group around 1,790 million years ago (“Ma”). The Hart Dolerite has been described as one of the largest mafic complexes in the world, which together with the Carson Volcanics, forms a large igneous province within the Kimberley Block. The only other intrusive rocks in the project area are carbonatite dykes and plugs associated with fluorite mineralisation.

6.3.2 Exploration Targets & Exploration History

Limited historical exploration has been completed to date on the Project area. A number of significant regional structures trend through the project. These structures to the south and west are associated with significant fluorite mineralisation, which in the region is associated with gold mineralisation. The project is also considered prospective for intrusive related nickel and copper mineralisation similar the Savannah deposit to the south.

6.3.3 Exploration Potential

Potential for high-grade gold targets exists in structural and litho-structural traps. Exploration activities should focus for high-grade gold targets in significant regional dome structures with major regional faults of gold-bearing arsenic quartz chlorite veins in both multiple flat dipping thrusts and vertical shears associated with gold-base metal epithermal quartz veins, dolerite dykes and chloritic shears.

Exploration should target low to intermediate sulphidation epithermal gold-silver-copper mineralisation and shallow level Cu-Au Porphyry systems within the NE Kimberly Proterozoic rocks. A soil and rock chip sampling program could be used to identify drill targets.

7 Opportunities and Risks

7.1 Opportunities

The projects in this Report have historically shown evidence of mineralisation; exploration prospects of obtaining significant and economic mineralisation is therefore high.

Western Australia is a well-endowed region for a variety of commodities, including gold, iron ore, nickel and base metals. As a result, there is a well-established infrastructure, including ports at Fremantle, Port Hedland, Albany, Esperance, Wyndham and Geraldton, as well as numerous mining centres for skilled labour supply.

7.2 Technical Risks

Mineral exploration has intrinsically high associated risks. The statistical probability that economic mineralisation will be discovered is low. Exploration in terrains with existing mineralisation endowments and known occurrences may slightly mitigate this risk, however, the projects require further review to determine their potential economic viability.

The key technical risks are as follows:

  • Much of the existing data in this Report is based on historic records, primarily soured from Wamex database and reports. Whilst Mining Insights’ review has been thorough, it is possible under certain circumstances that not all reports were covered. In some instances, Wamex references could not be validated by the data provided, particularly for older exploration programs.

  • Exploration activities are not always successful and, as with any exploration and mining companies, there is the risk that commodity prices may fall below prices that support the economic feasibility of a feasibility study or mining operations.

  • As the Company is an exploration company, there can be no assurance that exploration on the Company’s proposed Projects, or any other exploration properties that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic mineral resource.

  • The Company is subject to various mining legislation and regulations. The Company has an obligation to meet conditions that apply to its tenements, including the payment of rent and prescribed annual expenditure commitments.

  • Even if a resource were to be identified, other issues including ongoing funding, adverse government policy, geological conditions, commodity prices or other technical difficulties may result in a resource not being economically viable.

All these projects are considered to be sufficiently prospective, subject to the degrees of exploration risk outlined above. The Projects represent opportunities which warrant further exploration and further assessment of their economic potential.

8 Exploration Strategy & Use of Funds

8.1 Exploration Expenditure

Mamba Exploration has proposed a staged program of exploration for its Western Australian projects over two years following its listing on the ASX. Mamba Exploration’s exploration program going forward will mainly focus on drilling, followed by verification and critical reassessment of the geology and historic exploration data to generate detailed targets for subsequent follow-up assessment. The proposed exploration budget for each of the projects is shown in Table 8:1.

8.2 Conclusions

Mining Insights concludes that the Mamba Exploration portfolio of projects presents exposure to an attractive range of grassroots exploration plays. Further exploration and evaluation work is warranted on each of the Projects.

The proposed budget allocations are considered consistent with the exploration potential of each project and are considered adequate to cover the costs of the proposed programmes. The budgeted expenditures are also considered sufficient to meet the minimum statutory expenditure on the Tenements.

The Independent Geologist’s Report has been prepared on information available up to and including 8 December 2020 and Mining Insights is not aware of any material change to the company’s mineral interests since that date.

Commentary
Sampling was undertaken using Industry-standard practices utilising Rotary air
blast drilling (RAB). Drilling was undertaken by CRA exploration (1995).

Rock chip sampling was also undertaken by Fox Resources (2011 – 2013).

CRA Drillhole coordinates are in UTM grid (GDA94 Z50).

The drilling undertaken has been vertical to RAB blade refusal (top of the fresh
rock).

The RAB drilling was completed by a composite sampling of 4m with resampling
to single metres for anomalous zones (>0.1 g/t Au).

RAB samples were taken from the rig-mounted cyclone. Composite samples
were generally via a spear sampled. In general, the target was for samples
weighing approximately 2.5kg.

RAB Gold analysis was undertaken by Fire assay (50g charge) with an AAS
finish by Multi Labs in Perth.

Rock chip samples analysis was fire assay with an ICP-MS finish for gold and
ICPoes finish for multi-elements.

The drilling by CRA exploration was completed using RAB drilling (26 holes).
From the information reviewed, it appears that drilling was conducted using
industry-standard techniques.

Given the historical nature of the drilling, no information is available about
sample recoveries for specific drill programs

No bias was noted between sample recovery and grade.
JORC Code explanation
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific
specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as downhole gamma sondes, or

In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be
relatively simple (e.g. ‘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 (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant
disclosure of detailed information.

Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast,

120km north-east of Perth. The nearby country towns include Northam,
Toodyay and New Norcia and Gingin being 40km to the west. The project is
closely located to Perth and, therefore, it has multiple logistic corridors to get
to and around the project area. Mamba has an agreement to purchase
100% of the project as part of the IPO

If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information

the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.

In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum
and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. 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.

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 (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not known’).

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.

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.

Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported
including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey
results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of
treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical

Commentary
Sampling was undertaken using Industry-standard practices utilising reverse
circulation drilling (RC). Drilling was undertaken by Auralia Resources NL, Otter
Resources (1988 and 1989) and Temby Minerals Pty Ltd (2010 - 2012). One
Diamond hole has been completed by Temby Minerals.
Soil sampling has also been undertaken by Auralia Resources and Otter Resources
in 1987 and 1988 2kg unsieved samples were taken at each location and assayed
using bulk leach extractable gold (BLEG) analysis.

Otter and Auralia Drillhole coordinates are in a local grid and the Temby Minerals
drilling was in UTM grid (GDA94 Z50).

The drilling undertaken has been angled perpendicular to the strike of the historical
workings.

The RC drilling was completed by composite sampling normally 2 -4m with
resampling to single metres for anomalous zones. The single diamond hold was only
partly sampled using 1.5m sample lengths.

RC samples were taken from a rig-mounted cyclone. Composite samples were
generally via a spear sampled. In general, the target was for samples weighing
approximately 2.5kg.

RC Gold analysis was undertaken by Fire assay AAS finish by Classic Commlabs Ltd
for Auralia and Otter drilling.

Temby Minerals analysis was undertaken by Ultra Trace in Perth by aqua Regia with
an ICP finish to a 1ppb detection limit.

Soil sample analysis was undertaken by Genalysis using CN24 method which is a
low level (0.1 ppb detection) BLEG gold method.

The drilling by Auralia and Otter was completed using RC drilling (36 holes) and was
completed on the northern, central and southern prospects. From the information
reviewed, it appears that drilling was conducted using industry-standard techniques.

Temby Minerals drilling (22 holes) was focused on the northern and central prospects
with depths ranged from 11m to 283.9m.

Auralia / Otter sampling was undertaken on three local grids and all drill holes and
sample locations reported against those local grids. Conversion of local to MGA94
zone 50 grid has as yet not been undertaken. Field programmes and planned to
undertake this conversion. Temby drilling was undertaken using MGA94 zone 50 grid
and while not reported, it is believed that hole locations were measured by hand-held
GPS.

No field validation has been undertaken.

No downhole surveys were recorded for the RC drilling.

Topographic control is considered adequate for the early stage of exploration.

Drillhole spacing is highly variable over the project with sporadic drilling only
surrounding the historical workings.

Surface geochemistry has been effective on the project and has outlined a 4km long
gold in soil anomaly, which has only been drill tested in three locations around the
historical workings (Northern, Central and Southern Prospects). With the limited
weathering on the project, geochemical dispersion appears to be limited and RC
drilling is needed to adequately test the soil anomalies. Most of the soil anomaly is
effectively untested. The drilling to date represents a very limited test of the area,
with drilling at the Southern (and most prospective area) Prospect limited to a vertical
depth of approximately 25m.

There has been insufficient sampling and no significant results to date to support the
estimation of a resource. It is unknown if additional exploration will result in the
definition of a Mineral Resource.

Assays have been composited into significant intersections. No edge dilution has
been applied to significant intersections and a maximum of 4m of internal waste
included in intervals of greater than 0.5g/t gold.

Holes were angled perpendicular to the strike of the geology.

Most drilling has been conducted on either a local grid for the “CCRC” holes or in
MGA for more recent Tembey Minerals drilling. Any structures at an orientation
different to this regional trend will not have been tested and the 4km long soil anomaly
has only been drill tested in three locations around historical workings.

No orientation-based sampling bias is known at this time.

Details of measures taken for the chain of custody of samples is unknown for the
previous explorers' activities.

Commentary
Significant intersections (+0.5g/t gold) have been calculated with no edge
dilution, a maximum of 4m of internal dilution results and a minimum of 1m
down-hole length.

No top cuts have been applied.

No metal equivalent values are reported

Only downhole lengths are reported.

The exact geometry of the mineralisation is not known although drilling to date
has been roughly perpendicular to strike, suggesting true widths will be
approximately 65-80% of the reported down-hole widths.

Appropriate plans are included in this report.

Significant exploration drill results are included in this report.

To date, only exploration drilling and geophysical surveys (and associated
activities) have been undertaken on the project. No other modifying factors
have been investigated at this stage.

Further work will include systematic exploration drilling.

See Section 8 for recommended future exploration activities.
JORC Code explanation
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. 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.

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 (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not
known’).

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.

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.

Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported
including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey
results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of
treatment;

There has been insufficient sampling and significant results to date
to estimate a resource. It is unknown if additional exploration will
result in the definition of a Mineral Resource.

Assays have been composited into significant intersections. No edge
dilution has been applied to significant intersections and intervals of
greater than 0.1% copper are considered significant.
Ruby Plain Area

Drillhole spacing is highly variable over the project with sporadic.

There has been insufficient sampling and significant results to date
to estimate a resource. It is unknown if additional exploration will
result in the definition of a Mineral Resource.

Assays have been composited into significant intersections. No edge
dilution has been applied to significant intersections and intervals of
greater than 0.1% cobalt are considered significant.
Copper Flats Area

The sample grid was orientated perpendicular to geological strike
and is therefore considered appropriate and should not bias the
results.
Ruby Plain Area

No orientation-based sampling bias is known at this time.

Details of measures taken for the chain of custody of samples is
unknown for the previous explorers’ activities.

Sampling techniques are consistent with industry standards,
however, there have been no external audits of the sampling
technique or database
Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results Commentary
The Kimberley Project comprises of 3 sub-projects in the Kimberley
region of Western Australia. The project includes Ruby Plains Sub-
Project, Copper Flat Sub-Project, and Speewah East Sub-Project.

The Copper Flats Sub-Project is comprised of five exploration licence
geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore
Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied.

Whether sample compositing has been applied.

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.

The measures taken to ensure sample security.

The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data.

The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known
impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area.

Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties.

Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.

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:
o easting and northing of the drill hole collar
o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the
drill hole collar
o dip and azimuth of the hole
o down hole length and interception depth
o 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 reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum
and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. 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.

These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration
Results.

Commentary
The exact geometry of the mineralisation is not known.
Ruby Plain Area

Only downhole lengths are reported.

The exact geometry of the mineralisation is not known.

Appropriate plans are included in this report – See Section 6

Significant exploration drill results are included in this report.

To date, only exploration drilling and geochemical surveys (and
associated activities) have been undertaken on the project. No other
modifying factors have been investigated at this stage.

Further work will include systematic exploration drilling.

Appropriate plans are included in Section 6 of this report.

See Section 6.1.4, 6.2.3 and 6.6.3 for recommended future exploration
activities.
JORC Code explanation
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 (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not known’).

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.

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.

Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including
(but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results;
geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment;
metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock
characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances.

The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or
depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).

Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main
geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not
commercially sensitive.

STATUTORY RIGHTS & OBLIGATIONS

Regulatory Overview

  • 26 The exploration for and mining of minerals in Western Australia is governed by the Mining Act 1978 (WA) ( Mining Act ) and Mining Regulations 1981 (WA) ( Mining Regulations ).

  • 27 Subject to certain limited exceptions (none of which are relevant for the purposes of this report), minerals in situ in their natural state are the property of the State.

  • 28 The State may grant statutory rights known as ‘mining tenements’, including, relevantly:

  • (a) exploration licences, which confer upon the registered holder an exclusive right to explore for minerals; and

  • (b) mining leases, which confer upon the registered holder an exclusive right to mine and process minerals.

  • 29 While exploration licences and mining leases confer rights which are exclusive for mining purposes, mining tenements do not confer exclusive possession and co-exist with other interests in land such as pastoral leases and native title.

  • 30 The registered holder of a mining tenement can, by agreement, authorise a third party to exercise its rights.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 7

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

Exploration licences

  • 31 As set out in Schedule 3 to this report, the Exploration Licences include:

  • 31.1 10 granted exploration licences; and

  • 31.2 12 applications for exploration licences.

  • 32 Following the grant of any exploration licence application, either Ministerial consent or the passing of 12 months from grant is required to transfer the tenement pursuant to section 64(1) of the Mining Act.

  • 33 An exploration licence under the Mining Act authorises the registered holder:

  • 33.1 to enter the land the subject of the licence;

  • 33.2 to explore that land;

  • 33.3 to remove mineral bearing substances from that land to a prescribed limit; and

  • 33.4 to take and divert water from that land for domestic purposes and for any purpose in connection with exploring for minerals on the land, subject to the Rights in Water and Irrigation 1914 Act (WA).

  • 34 Exploration licences are granted by the Minister for an initial term of five years.

  • 35 The Minister may, if satisfied that any one of several prescribed grounds for extension exist, extend the term of an exploration licence:

  • 35.1 by one period of five years; and

  • 35.2 by a further period or periods of two years.

  • 36 The prescribed grounds for extension are set out in the Mining Regulations and include:

  • 36.1 difficulties or delays occasioned by law, arising from the requirements of governmental or other authorities, political and environmental requirements, the conduct of an Aboriginal heritage survey on the land or in obtaining requisite consents or approvals or in gaining access to the land;

  • 36.2 that the land the subject of the licence has been unworkable for the whole or a considerable part of any year of the term; and

  • 36.3 that the work carried out under the exploration licence justifies further exploration.

  • 37 The holder of an exploration licence has the right to apply for, and have granted, one or more mining leases or general purposes leases in respect of the land the subject of the licence. The right to grant of a mining lease is subject to the Mining Act, which gives the Minister a residual discretion to refuse a mining lease application, including on public interest grounds.

  • 38 Where the holder of an exploration licence applies for a mining lease or general purpose lease over that land, the exploration licence continues in force until the application for a lease has been determined.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 8

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

  • 39 The holder of an exploration licence is obliged:

  • 39.1 to pay an annual rent;

  • 39.2 unless exempt, to expend a minimum amount in connection with exploration on the exploration licence in excess of the prescribed annual expenditure commitment; and

  • 39.3 to surrender 40% of the number of blocks subject to the exploration licence within six years after the date of grant.

  • 40 The annual rent and the minimum expenditure commitments for each of the Exploration Licences are set out in Schedule 3.

Tenement Conditions

  • 41 Various conditions may be imposed on exploration licences including standard conditions for the protection of the environment or third party interests in land. On the basis of the public searches undertaken, we are not aware of any unusual and onerous conditions.

  • 42 A number of non-standard conditions have been imposed upon the Exploration Licences as outlined in Schedule 4 which deal with the exercise of rights pursuant to the Exploration Licences on areas of land which are also subject to the concurrent land interests detailed below at paragraphs 77 to 82 below.

  • 43 We are instructed that the imposition of those conditions will not have a material impact on the conduct of the Company’s proposed exploration plan because the areas of land the subject of the relevant Crown reserve or file notation area are not in areas where the company intends to conduct its proposed exploration activities.

  • 44 Further, as detailed further at paragraphs 103 to 106, certain Exploration Licences have been granted, or will be granted, subject to a tenement condition requiring the tenement holder to enter into a Regional Standard Heritage Agreement or an Alternative Heritage Agreement with the relevant native title party or body corporate, being:

  • 44.1 a condition in respect of E80/5232 which provide that if the tenement holder receives a request from Purnululu, the native title applicants in Federal Court application No. WAD6007/1998 (the "native title party"), not more than ninety days after the grant of the tenement, must within thirty days execute in favour of the native title party any Regional Standard Heritage Agreement nominated by the native title party, the Regional Standard Heritage Agreement being any of the agreements described as the Yamatji Marlpa Aboriginal Corporation (Geraldton and Pilbara) Agreement, the Goldfields Land and Sea Council Agreement, and the South West Land and Sea Council Agreement on the website of the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety under the heading "Regional Standard Heritage Agreement"; and

  • 44.2 conditions in respect of E09/2332, E70/5147, E70/5329 and E70/4998 (which conditions will also be imposed upon application E70/5403 upon grant) which require the tenement holder to enter into an Regional Standard Heritage Agreement or a Noongar Standard Heritage Agreement with the Native Title Agreement Group or Regional Corporation (as the case requires) prior to the exercise of any rights, powers or duties pursuant to the relevant Exploration Licence over the portion of the area of land the subject of the relevant ILUA.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 9

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

Tenement Compliance & Standing

  • 45 Failure to comply with tenement conditions may result in forfeiture of the Exploration Licences or the imposition of a penalty.

  • 46 As set out in Schedule 3, rent has been paid in full in respect of all of the Exploration Licences.

  • 47 Form 5 Operations Reports have been lodged for the most recent reporting year for all of the Exploration Licences in which the tenement holder claims to have incurred expenditure in excess of the annual expenditure commitment on or connection with mining on the tenement during the reporting year, save for E80/5216 which is due 60 days after the anniversary date of the commencement of the term of the licence, 30 October. We are instructed that a Form 5 Operations Report or an application for a certificate of exemption will be lodged with the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety prior to the end of the prescribed period.

  • 48 As set out in Schedule 3, the public searches undertaken record instances of historical noncompliance with tenement conditions in relation to E80/5079 and E08/2913, resulting in the imposition of fines for non-compliance with mineral exploration reporting requirements and rent obligations.

  • 49 Based on the public searches undertaken, we are not aware of any other non-compliance with the conditions of the Exploration Licences which may result in forfeiture of the Exploration Licences or the imposition of a penalty.

Term, Renewal & Compulsory Surrender

  • 50 As referred to in Schedule 3, 10 of the Exploration Licences are granted and all are within their initial five year term. The initial term of those Exploration Licences expires as follows:

  • 50.1 E08/2913 – 18 July 2023;

  • 50.2 E09/2332 – 5 January 2025; 50.3 E70/4998 – 21 January 2023; 50.4 E70/5147 – 14 May 2024; 50.5 E70/5329 – 30 November 2025; 50.6 E80/5079 – 21 September 2022; 50.7 E80/5216 – 29 October 2024; 50.8 E80/5232 – 5 February 2025; 50.9 E80/5409 – 10 November 2025; and 50.10 E80/5411 – 10 November 2025.

  • 51 Only one of these Exploration Licences, E80/5079, is due to expire and will require renewal within the next two years.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 10

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

  • 52 We are instructed that the Company intends to undertake staged exploration and evaluation programs in accordance with the proposed exploration expenditure summary set out in the prospectus and that the budgeted expenditure is sufficient to meet the minimum expenditure requirements in respect of each of the tenements, and on that basis we consider that if the Company undertakes the work set out in the prospectus and that work justifies further exploration such that the Company wishes to seek renewal of these Exploration Licences, then it would have good prospects of obtaining an extension of term for the granted Exploration Licences on the basis that the work carried out under the Exploration Licences justifies further exploration.

  • 53 Given all of the granted Exploration Licences are within their initial five year term, there are no compulsory partial surrenders due in respect of any of the Exploration Licences. No voluntary partial surrenders have been lodged in respect of any of the Exploration Licences.

CONCURRENT INTERESTS

  • 54 Mining tenements under the Mining Act are exclusive only for the purposes for which they are granted and, where granted in respect of Crown land, are capable of co-existing:

  • 54.1 in the case of miscellaneous licences and special prospecting licences, with other mining tenements; and

  • 54.2 in all cases, with pastoral leases, petroleum licences or permits, Crown reserves and native title.

Concurrent mining tenements

  • 55 Under the Mining Act, where mining tenements coexist, the subsequent tenement is deemed to be granted subject to a reservation of the rights of the prior tenement. In practice, in the absence of agreement to the contrary, this means that activities under the prior tenement are entitled to priority in the event of any conflict or interference.

  • 56 As referred to in Schedule 3, the following Exploration Licences coexist with mining tenements held by third parties:

  • 56.1 Goldnet Miscellaneous Licence 08/196 – <0.1% of the land the subject of application E08/3266 includes land the subject of application L08/196 applied for by Goldnet Pty Ltd;

  • 56.2 King River Access Agreement – 2.49% of the land the subject of application E80/5217 includes land the subject of L80/43 held by Speewah Mining Pty Ltd; and

  • 56.3 Priority – 3.08% of the land the subject of application E80/5519 includes land the subject of application E 80/5442 held by Mining Equities Pty Ltd.

Goldnet Miscellaneous Licence 08/196

  • 57 Goldnet Pty Ltd is the applicant for application L08/196 for the prescribed purposes of ‘a communications facility’ which includes land the subject of application E08/3266.

  • 58 Goldnet Pty Ltd lodged an objection lodged under the Mining Act to the grant of application E08/3266 however that objection was withdrawn on 27 November 2020.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 11

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

King River Access Agreement

  • 59 Speewah Mining Pty Ltd is the holder of L80/43 for the prescribed purposes of a ‘road’ which includes land the subject of application E80/5217.

  • 60 Speewah Mining Pty Ltd lodged an objection under the Mining Act to the grant of application E80/5217. The objection has been resolved by way of execution of the King River Access Agreement. The King River Access Agreement provides that:

  • 60.1 Speewah Mining Pty Ltd consents to the grant of application E80/5217;

  • 60.2 among other obligations, Gold Valley Iron & Manganese Pty Ltd agrees, in relation to the land which is subject to both L80/43 and E80/5217 (following grant):

    • 60.2.1 to allow Speewah Mining Pty Ltd to conduct any activities permitted as holder of L80/43 and not to interfere with the conduct of those activities;

    • 60.2.2 not to use any road constructed pursuant to L80/43 as a haul road;

    • 60.2.3 not to undertake any activities that damage or are likely to damage any infrastructure constructed pursuant to L80/43; and

    • 60.2.4 not to undertake any mining, excavation or mining works, or install or erect any structure on or within 15 metres of land which is subject to both L80/43 and E80/5217;

  • 60.3 if any activities proposed to be conducted by Gold Valley Iron & Manganese Pty Ltd may be likely to prevent, interfere with or impede in any material respect Speewah Mining Pty Ltd’s use of any infrastructure constructed pursuant to L80/43, Gold Valley Iron & Manganese Pty Ltd may require Speewah Mining Pty Ltd to relocate the infrastructure (subject to determination of an alternative location for the infrastructure) at Gold Valley Iron & Manganese Pty Ltd’s cost; and

  • 60.4 neither party may transfer its interest in the tenements the subject of the agreement unless the proposed transferee enters into an agreement with the transferring party whereby it covenants in favour of the non-transferring party to observe and perform the terms of the agreement.

  • 61 A Deed of Covenant was entered into on 23 October 2020 between the Subsidiary Company and Gold Valley Iron & Manganese Pty Ltd, the vendor of E80/5217 and E80/5216, pursuant to which the Subsidiary Company covenants in favour of Gold Valley Iron & Manganese Pty Ltd to comply with and be bound by the assumed obligations as if named assignor in the King River Access Agreement.

Priority

  • 62 Under section 105A of the Mining Act, where there are competing tenement applications, the applicant who first complies with the initial requirements has "the right in priority over every other applicant to have granted" the mining tenement. The 'initial requirements' is, in the case of an exploration licence, the lodgement of the application in the prescribed manner.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 12

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

  • 63 The Department administers competing applications on the basis that the right of priority is a right to have the application considered prior to and independently of competing applications.

  • 64 Where an application for an exploration licence is made in respect of areas of land which include land which is unavailable for mining, those areas of land will be excised from the application on grant of the exploration licence under subsections 57(2c) to (2e) of the Mining Act.

  • 65 As referred to in Schedule 3 application E80/5519 includes land the subject of application E80/5442 held by Mining Equities Pty Ltd.

  • 66 Application E80/5519 is second in time to application E80/5442. In the usual course, the priority application will be granted with the consequence that the common land will be excised upon grant of the non-priority application.

Concurrent private land interests

  • 67 Under section 29(2) of the Mining Act, unless the written consent of the owner and occupier is obtained, a tenement cannot be granted in respect of any private land within 30 metres of the natural surface:

  • 67.1 which is in use as a yard, stockyard, garden, orchard, vineyard, plant nursery or plantation or is under cultivation; or

  • 67.2 which is the site of a cemetery or burial ground; or

  • 67.3 which is the site of a dam, bore, well or spring; or

  • 67.4 on which there is erected a substantial improvement; or

  • 67.5 which is situated within 100m of any private land referred to above; or

  • 67.6 which is a separate parcel of land and has an area of 2,000m[2] or less.

  • 68 As referred to in Schedule 3, in respect of the tenements the subject of the Darling Range Project:

  • 68.1 99.07% of the land the subject of E70/5147 includes land the subject of 18 parcels of private land;

  • 68.2 96.45% of the land the subject of E70/5329 includes land the subject of 55 parcels of private land; and

  • 68.3 96.71% of the land the subject of application E70/5403 includes land the subject of 30 parcels of private land.

  • 69 E70/5147 and E70/5329 have been granted with the exclusion of any private land referred to in section 29(2) of the Mining Act except that below 30 metres from the natural surface of the land. In the event that the Company wishes to obtain surface rights, it may obtain the written consent of the owner and occupier to the grant of surface rights and an application can subsequently be made to the Minister for the mining tenement to be granted in respect of that area that is less than 30 metres from the natural surface of the land as well as in respect of the land in respect of which that mining tenement is already granted.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 13

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

  • 70 We are instructed that:

  • 70.1 the requirement to obtain the written consent of the owner and occupier to the grant of surface rights will not have a material impact on the conduct of the Company’s proposed exploration plan because initial exploration activities proposed to be undertaken in respect of these tenements are predominantly nonground disturbing activities (i.e. the conduct of desktop studies or aerial surveys); and

  • 70.2 the results of those initial exploration activities will be used to identify targets for further exploration and therefore which private landholders will need to be approached to obtain consent to the grant of surface rights.

Pastoral leases

  • 71 Under the Mining Act, the rights of a tenement holder generally have priority over the rights of a pastoral lessee, subject to the right of pastoral lessee to:

  • 71.1 withhold consent (unless the Warden otherwise directs) to the conduct of activities within:

    • 71.1.1 100 metres of land that is under crop;

    • 71.1.2 100 metres of a yard, stockyard, garden, cultivated field, orchard, vineyard, plantation, airstrip or airfield;

    • 71.1.3 100 metres of land that is occupied by a house or building;

    • 71.1.4 100 metres of a cemetery or burial ground; or

    • 71.1.5 400 metres of improvements such as any water works, race, dam, well or bore; and

  • 71.2 seek compensation for damage to improvements or loss of earnings from interference with pastoral activities.

  • 72 The provision of consent (if required) and payment of compensation (if applicable) is sometimes dealt with by an agreement which also provides for the consent of the pastoral lessee to the grant of the mining tenement.

  • 73 As referred to in Schedule 3, various Exploration Licences include land the subject of various pastoral leases.

  • 74 No objections have been lodged by the pastoralists to the grant of the tenements and there are no pastoral access compensation agreements in relation to any of the Exploration Licences.

  • 75 We are instructed that the requirement to obtain the pastoralists’ consent to the conduct of exploration activities will not have a material impact on the conduct of the Company’s proposed exploration plan because the Company is not aware of the existence of any relevant pastoral improvements in areas where the company intends to conduct its proposed exploration activities.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 14

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

General Lease

  • 76 As referred to in Schedule 3, E80/5216 includes land the subject of GE L387707 (overlapping 0.38%), a general lease under section 79 of the Land Administration Act 1997 (WA) in favour of T.F.S Properties Limited (ACN 093 330 977) for the permitted purpose of ‘Dam Site’. No objection under the Mining Act was received to the grant of E80/5212 from the lessee.

Reserves and File Notation Areas

  • 77 Mining tenements may be applied for and granted in respect of land that is subject of a Crown reserves, subject to the consent of the Minister for Mines and in accordance with any tenement conditions imposed on the tenement upon grant, which are recommended to be imposed by the Department to the Minister following consultation with the relevant responsible agency in accordance with sections 24, 24A and 25 of the Mining Act (being the relevant Minister charged with the administration of the land or the enactment to which the land is subject, or the local government, public body, trustees or other persons in which the control and management of such land is vested).

  • 78 Mining on land which is reserved under Part 4 of the Land Administration Act 1997 (WA) (which includes reserves such as C Class Reserves) requires written consent of the Minister for Mines unless the land is reserved for certain purposes including ‘commons’.

  • 79 File Notation Areas are a dataset which appear spatially within the Tengraph database maintained by the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety. File Notation Areas indicate that land is subject of the File Notation Area is the subject of a proposed land transaction, alienation from the Crown, or other proposed change in land use, which may or may not be implemented.

  • 80 As referred to in Schedule 3, various Exploration Licences include land the subject of various Crown reserves and file notation areas.

  • 81 As noted above at paragraph 42, a number of non-standard conditions have been imposed upon the Exploration Licences as outlined in Schedule 4 which deal with the exercise of rights pursuant to the Exploration Licences on areas of land which are also the subject of various Crown reserves and file notation areas.

  • 82 We are instructed that the imposition of those conditions will not have a material impact on the conduct of the Company’s proposed exploration plan because the areas of land the subject of the relevant Crown reserve or file notation area are not in areas where the company intends to conduct its proposed exploration activities.

Native title

  • 83 The common law of Australia recognises the proprietary rights and interests of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people arising under traditional laws and customs in relation to their traditional lands and waters.

  • 84 These rights and interests will be recognised where the persons claiming to hold those rights and interests can establish that they have maintained a continuous connection with the land in accordance with traditional laws and customs since non-Indigenous settlement and those rights and interests have not been lawfully extinguished by the grant of rights and interests to other persons.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 15

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

  • 85 The Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) codifies much of this common law and establishes a framework pursuant to which:

  • 85.1 persons claiming to hold native title in land and waters, excluding freehold land and certain other specified categories of land, can have their claims determined by the Federal Court;

  • 85.2 persons whose claim is registered because they demonstrate a prima facie case to hold native title are entitled to certain procedural rights in respect of the grant of future rights and interests, including mining tenements, to other persons over that land and waters; and

  • 85.3 persons found to hold native title are entitled to compensation in respect of the effect on that native title of the grant to other persons over that land and waters of any rights and interests after the commencement of the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 (Cth), including any future rights and interests.

  • 86 In relation to the grant of mining tenements, the procedural rights referred to at 85.2 above which are enjoyed by registered native title claimants and native title holders include:

  • 86.1 in respect of the proposed grant of exploration licences, a right to object to the application of the expedited procedure under the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) which, unless an objection is upheld, has the effect of permitting the grant of mining tenements without requiring negotiation in the same manner as for mining leases (described at 86.2 below) and to have that objection heard and determined by the National Native Title Tribunal; and

  • 86.2 in respect of the proposed grant of mining leases, an obligation to negotiate in good faith with the tenement applicant and the State of Western Australia with a view to reaching agreement in relation to the grant of that mining lease, failing which any party to those negotiations may, no earlier than six months after notification of proposed grant, apply to the National Native Title Tribunal for a determination as to whether or not the leases should be granted in the absence of agreement.

  • 87 Unregistered claimants do not enjoy those procedural rights.

  • 88 As referred to in Schedule 3: 88.1 in respect of the Ashburton Project:

    • 88.1.1 E08/2913 and applications E08/3190 and E08/3266 fall wholly within the Budina People native title determination (WCD2017/006) which was determined on 16 October 2017; and

    • 88.1.2 E09/2332 falls partially within Combined Thiin-Mah, Warriyangka, Tharrkari and Jiwarli People native title determination (WCD2019/003) which was determined on 16 April 2019;

  • 88.2 in respect of the Calyerup Creek Project, E70/4998 falls wholly within:

    • 88.2.1 the Southern Noongar native title claim (WC1996/109) which was registered on 18 November 1996;

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 16

  • 88.2.2 the Wagyl Kaip native title claim (WC1998/070) which was registered on 29 September 1998;

  • 88.2.3 the Single Noongar Claim (Area 1) (WC2003/006) (unregistered); and

  • 88.2.4 the Single Noongar Claim Group Compensation Claim (WP2019/001) (100%) (unregistered);

  • 88.3 in respect of the Darling Range Project: 88.3.1 E70/5417 and E70/5329 fall wholly within the Yued native title claim (WC1997/071) which was registered on 22 August 1997;

  • 88.3.2 application E70/5403 falls wholly within Ballardong native title claim (WC2000/007) which was registered on 3 July 2008; and

  • 88.3.3 E70/5417 and E70/5329 and application E70/5403 fall wholly within

    • (a) the Single Noongar Claim (Area 1) (WC2003/006) (unregistered); and
  • (b) the Single Noongar Claim Group Compensation Claim (WP2019/001) (100%) (unregistered);

  • 88.4 in respect of the Ruby Plains Area: 88.4.1 E80/5079 and E80/5409 fall wholly within the Jaru native title claim (WC2012/003) which was registered on 16 March 2012;

  • 88.4.2 E80/5411 and application E80/5085 fall partially within:

    • (a) the Jaru native title claim (WC2012/003) which was registered on 16 March 2012; and

    • (b) the Koongie-Elvire native title claim (WC1999/040) which was registered on 15 November 1999; and

  • 88.4.3 application E80/5086 falls partially within: (a) the Jaru native title claim (WC2012/003) which was registered on 16 March 2012; and

  • (b) the Malarngowem native title claim (WC1999/044) which was registered on 4 February 2000;

  • 88.5 in respect of the Copper Flats Area: 88.5.1 applications E80/5519, E80/5280, E80/5247, E80/4569 and E80/5247 fall wholly within the Jaru native title claim (WC2012/003) which was registered on 16 March 2012;

  • 88.5.2 application E80/5281 falls partially within:

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 17

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

     - (a) the Jaru native title claim (WC2012/003) which was registered on 16 March 2012; and

     - (b) the Purnululu native title claim (WC1994/011) which was registered on 27 March 1995; and

  - 88.5.3 E80/5232 falls wholly within the Purnululu native title claim (WC1994/011) which was registered on 27 March 1995; and
  • 88.6 in respect of the Speewah East Area:

    • 88.6.1 E80/5216 falls partially within:

      • (a) the Yurriyangem Taam native title claim (WC2010/013) which was registered on 29 October 2010; and

      • (b) the Wanjina – Wunggurr native title determination (WCD2004/001) which was determined on 27 August 2004; and

    • 88.6.2 E80/5217 falls partially within the Yurriyangem Taam native title claim (WC2010/013) which was registered on 29 October 2010.

  • 89 Consequently, the various native title claim and determination groups will enjoy the procedural rights referred to paragraph 86 in respect of the grant of any tenement applications (as summarised at paragraph 86.1 above in relation to the Exploration Licences that have not yet been granted).

  • 90 The various Exploration Licences which include land the subject of registered native title claims and determinations are at various stages of assessment under the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth), as follows:

  • 90.1 Applications E08/5519, E80/4586, E80/5247, E80/5280, E80/5281, E08/3190 and E08/3266 have not yet been notified under the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth). They each fall within or partly within native title determinations or registered claims but outside the South West Settlement Area so their grant under the expedited procedure may be objected to by the relevant native title parties, which objection would typically be withdrawn by the parties finalising a heritage agreement.

  • 90.2 Objections have been lodged by native title parties in respect of E80/5409 and E80/5411 and application E80/5217 to the proposed grant of these tenements under the expedited procedure. Native title parties typically withdraw their objections if the parties finalise a heritage agreement applicable to the tenement. If objections are not withdrawn and the National Native Title Tribunal determines that the expedited procedure does not apply, the ‘right to negotiate’ process applies to the grant of the tenement.

  • 90.3 The National Native Title Tribunal determined that the expedited procedure does not apply to applications E80/5085 and E80/5086. The ‘right to negotiate’ process therefore applies, which means the applicant must negotiate in good faith with the relevant native title parties in relation to the grant of the tenements. It also means that these tenements can only be validly granted after finalisation of a State deed under section 31 of the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) (and, typically, an associated ancillary agreement), or alternatively if the applicant obtains a determination by

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 18

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

the National Native Title Tribunal that the tenements may be granted in absence of agreement (which would likely be actively opposed by the native title parties). There are two native title parties relevant to these tenements: Koongie-Elvire and Jaru. Our searches suggest negotiations with Jaru are underway and that negotiations with Koongie-Elvire have been finalised, however we have not sighted any agreements with Koongie-Elvire and we are not aware of the current status of negotiations with Jaru.

  • 91 Mining tenements granted after commencement of the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) on 24 December 1993 validly affect native title provided that the relevant applicable future act process has been complied with. The 'non-extinguishment principle' applies to the grant of those mining tenements with the effect that native title continues to exist in the land the subject of those tenements but have no effect in relation to the tenements to the extent of any inconsistency. Compensation is payable to any determined native title holders.

  • 92 All of the Exploration Licences were applied for or granted after 24 December 1993 with the consequence that, provided that the applicable future act process was complied with, the nonextinguishment principle applies but any determined native title holder will be entitled to compensation.

  • 93 Under the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) and the Mining Act, liability for payment of compensation referred to at 85.3 above in respect of the grant of a mining tenement falls upon the tenement holder at the time the compensation is determined except:

  • 93.1 if the amount is to be paid and held in trust, in which case the liability falls upon the tenement holder at the time payment is required; and

  • 93.2 in the event that, at the relevant time, the tenement has been surrendered, forfeited or expired, in which case the liability falls upon the tenement holder immediately prior to that surrender, forfeiture or expiry (as applicable).

STATUTORY APPROVALS

  • 94 In order to undertake ground disturbing exploration activities on the Exploration Licences, the Company will require:

  • 94.1 approved programmes of work; and

  • 94.2 Aboriginal heritage clearance.

Programme of Work

  • 95 It is a condition of every exploration licence that the holder must not conduct ground disturbing activities such as drilling on the tenement unless the holder has lodged a programme of work and it has been approved.

  • 96 We are instructed that the Company does not have any approved programmes of works however it will obtain approved programmes of work prior to the conduct of ground disturbing exploration activities, including after the grant of the relevant Exploration Licences.

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 19

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

Aboriginal Heritage Clearance

  • 97 In order to undertake exploration activities on the Exploration Licences, the Company will require Aboriginal heritage clearance.

  • 98 The Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Heritage Protection Act 1984 (Cth) protect places and objects of significance to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in accordance with their traditional laws and customs.

  • 99 The Registrar of Aboriginal Sites maintains a non-exhaustive register of Aboriginal Sites protected by the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) as well as a record of other heritage places which may have cultural significance to Aboriginal people but either have not yet been assessed for the purposes of the Act or do not satisfy the criteria specified under the Act.

  • 100 Under the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) it is an offence to damage or in any way alter an ‘Aboriginal Site’ without the consent of the Minister under section 18 or the permission of the Registrar under section 16. An ‘Aboriginal Site’ under the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) may be an archaeological site, a sacred or ceremonial site or a place which is associated with Aboriginal people and should be preserved because of its significance to the cultural heritage of the State. The Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) establishes a Register of Aboriginal Sites, but protects Aboriginal Sites regardless of whether or not they are registered.

  • 101 Information obtained by searches of the register maintained by the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage under the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) in relation to Aboriginal sites are included in Schedule 3 and indicate in relation to the Exploration Licences that:

  • 101.1 E70/4998, E80/5232, E80/5216 and E80/5217 and applications E70/5403 and E80/5085 include land the subject of registered Aboriginal sites; and

  • 101.2 E08/2913, E08/3266 and E70/5329 and applications E70/5403 and E80/5085 include land the subject of sites recorded as other heritage places.

  • 102 The practical effect of both the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Act 1984 (WA) is to require due diligence to be carried out prior to ground-disturbing works for the purposes of identifying whether or not those works may impact on an Aboriginal site. Due diligence will require, at a minimum, a search of the register of Aboriginal sites and, in most cases where the area has not been subject to previous disturbance, conduct of an Aboriginal heritage survey.

Heritage Agreements

  • 103 As referred to at paragraph 44, the following Exploration Licences have been granted, or will be granted, subject to a tenement condition requiring the tenement holder to enter into an a Regional Standard Heritage Agreement or an Alternative Heritage Agreement with the relevant native title party or body corporate, being:

  • 103.1 E80/5232, which includes land the subject of the Purnululu native title claim;

  • 103.2 application E70/5403, which includes land the subject of the Ballardong People Indigenous Land Use Agreement;

  • 103.3 E70/5147 and E70/5329, which include land the subject of the Yued Indigenous Land Use Agreement; and

ZTB/MTR/427820/1 AUM/1222790033.2 Page 20

==> picture [73 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

  • 103.4 E70/4998, which includes land the subject of the Wagyl Kaip & Southern Noongar Indigenous Land Use Agreement.

  • 104 The proponent must provide a statutory declaration to DMIRS evidencing compliance with the condition referred to in paragraph 85.

  • 105 A Noongar Alternative Heritage Agreement has been entered into in respect of E70/5329. Under the Noongar Alternative Heritage Agreement:

  • 105.1 the parties agree the terms upon which representatives of the Yued Native Title Party will participate in heritage surveys to identify any Aboriginal heritage sites within the Agreement Area;

  • 105.2 the tenements holder:

    • 105.2.1 must provide Programs of Proposed Works and Activity Notices to the Yued Native Title Party in circumstances where heritage surveys are likely to be required prior to the conduct of exploration activities;

    • 105.2.2 may elect not to provide Activity Notices where it has reasonable ground to form an opinion that a heritage survey is not required, including because the proposed exploration activities constituted Minimal Impact Activities or Low Ground Disturbance Activities; and

    • 105.2.3 must consult with the Yued Native Title Party prior to lodging any application the for the consent of the Minister under section 18 or the permission of the Registrar under section 16 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA).

  • 106 The terms of the Noongar Alternative Heritage Agreement are substantially the same as the Yued Noongar Standard Heritage Agreement save that the obligation to provide Aboriginal heritage information and survey information to the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage have been removed. The terms of the agreement are typical for agreements of this nature and are not unusually onerous.

MAMBA EXPLORATION LTD PROSPECTUS 212

  1. Fraka Investments Pty Ltd is a vendor of assets to Mamba Exploration Pty Ltd and, prior to the commencement of quotation of the Shares on ASX or after expiration of their escrow period, may distribute its entitlement to shares under the tenement sales agreement to its shareholders

12.10 Escrow Arrangements

None of the Shares issued pursuant to the Offer will be subject to any ASX imposed escrow restrictions.

Chapter 9 of the Listing Rules prohibits holders of ‘restricted securities’ from or agreeing to disposing of those securities or an interest in those securities for the relevant restriction periods.

In summary, the Company expects that, if it is admitted to the Official List of the ASX, the following Securities held by Directors, related parties, promoters, the Lead Manager and Vendors, will be required to be held in escrow for the period of time between 12 and 24 months.

The total number of 23,983,336 Shares and 10,000,000 Options that are expected to be subject to ASX imposed escrow restrictions represent approximately 39.33% of the Shares on Admission (on a fully diluted basis) (assuming a Minimum Subscription).

During the period in which these Shares (if any) are prohibited from being transferred, trading in Shares may be less liquid which may impact on the ability of a Shareholder to dispose of their Shares in a timely manner. The Company will announce to the ASX full details (quantity and duration) of the Shares (if any) required to be held in escrow prior to the Shares commencing trading on ASX.

12.11 Continuous Disclosure Obligations

Following Admission, the Company will be a “disclosing entity” (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) and, as such, will be subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company will be required to continuously disclose to the market any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Shares (unless a relevant exception to disclosure applies). Price sensitive information will be publicly released through ASX before it is otherwise disclosed to Shareholders and market participants. Distribution of other information to Shareholders and market participants will also be managed through disclosure to ASX. In addition, the Company will post this information on its website after ASX confirms that an announcement has been made, with the aim of making the information readily accessible to the widest audience.

12.12 Litigation and Claims

So far as the Directors are aware, there is no current or threatened civil litigation, arbitration proceedings or administrative appeals, or criminal or governmental prosecutions of a material nature in which the Company is directly or indirectly concerned which is likely to have a material adverse effect on the business or financial position of the Company.
