ASX Announcement Activities for Quarter Ending 30 September 2016

MT FORREST PROJECT

Overview

The Company is continuing to review development options for the Mt Forrest Iron Project.

Funding alternatives continue to be pursued but none were identified during the quarter ending 30 September 2016. No geological or other activity has been undertaken for the quarter.

The Company regenerated a review of the gold bearing potential of these tenements as a result of renewed interest in gold exploration generally. Historical gold results are being re - analysed with a view to formulating a programme to further assess the gold potential of these tenements.

TENURE

A total of 7 tenements covering 54 km2 were held as at 30 September 2016. A list of the tenements and their locations are set out at Annexure “A”.

TENEMENT ACQUISITION

Subsequent to the end of the quarter the Company acquired a 100% interest in an exploration licence (Exploration Licence 51/1705) located in the Meekatharra Region of Western Australia Based on previous knowledge of the area, and prior work in the vicinity on tenements formally held by Mindax, the Company has formed the view that this tenement is prospective for gold mineralisation. In conjunction with ongoing discussions with various parties, the Company is aiming to develop an exploration programme and funding plans during the current quarter.

CORPORATE

The Company continued its discussions with parties who have expressed an interest in joint venture, farm in or outright sale/purchase of the mineral properties held by Mindax. These discussions are ongoing.

Capital Structure

The current issued capital of the Company is as follows:

Number Quoted Class
544,793,570 Fully paid ordinary shares.

On 31 July 2016 12,500,000 Options, with an exercise price of $0.12 expired.
