About MinRex
During the current quarter, the Company announced that it had made an offer to acquire the entire share capital of Skin Elements Pty Ltd (‘Skin’), subject to due diligence, shareholder approval and other regulatory requirements. Skin has developed a range of all natural organic sun screen and skin care products, with full regulatory approvals in 15 countries.
Skin is now commercialising the sun care range under the brand name Soleo, with significant opportunities in the Australian and international market places.
MinRex was listed as an exploration company on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2011, with the focus then on the exploration and development of gold, base metal and tin projects in Australia.
MinRex has two projects in its exploration portfolio, the Deflector Gold Project in Western Australia and the Heemskirk Tin Project in Tasmania (Figure 1). These projects have provided MinRex with a base from which to explore two prospective areas of Australia.

Exploration Projects
Deflector Gold Project
The Deflector Gold Project (E59/1657) lies in the Gullewa Mining Centre, in the Murchison Goldfields, north of Perth. During 2012-14, MinRex has been exploring this project area, which is largely covered by transported soil, colluvium and alluvium, which effectively conceal any mineralisation present. The area has been examined by regional soil geochemistry surveys, rock chip sampling and air-core and RAB drilling. The completed exploration work has not identified any findings of significance.
The Deflector Gold Project remains current and all expenditure and regulatory requirements for the current (third) year of the tenement have been met.
Heemskirk Tin Project
The Heemskirk Tin Project (E18/2011) is located in coastal north-western Tasmania, to the WNW of the town of Zeehan. MinRex has been exploring the Heemskirk Tin Project for tintungsten mineralisation through 2012-14. The presence of multiple small deposits of tin, tungsten and base metals in the granitic and sedimentary rock sequences in the area, has not led to any findings of significance.
The Heemskirk Tin Project is also current and all expenditure and regulatory requirements are up to date for this (the third) year of the tenement.
Corporate
As at 30 June 2014, the Company had available cash of $2.048 million.
