EXPLANATORY STATEMEN T
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
1. BACKGROUND
1.1 Introduction
The Company announced on 28 November 2017 it had entered into a binding heads of agreement ( HOA ) to acquire, through controlling entities, a 70% interest in five gold licences ( Licences ) located in Western Australia’s East Pilbara Region ( Acquisition ). Details of the projects being acquired are set out in Section 1.2 and details of the HOA are set out in Section 1.3 of this Notice.
The Company is seeking Shareholder approval under Resolution 2 to issue 14,583,334 Shares ( Consideration Shares ) as part consideration pursuant to the HOA and under Resolution 3 is seeking approval to issue 60,000,000 Options pursuant to the HOA.
The Company also announced at the same time as the Acquisition a placement of 6,250,000 Shares ( Placement Shares ) to sophisticated investors at an issue price of $0.12 per Share to raise $750,000 (before costs) ( Placement ) to be completed simultaneously with the Acquisition. The Company is seeking to ratify the Placement under Resolution 1.
In November 2017, the Company appointed Dr James Ellingford and Mr Timothy Wilson to the board of the Company ( MinRex Board ) and seeks their election under Resolutions 4 and 5 respectively.
1.2
Summary of the Projects
The Acquisition provides the Company with five highly-prospective gold Licences in Western Australia’s Pilbara Region at Bamboo Creek, Marble Bar and Daltons ( Projects ), all which have basement (orogenic) gold potential, while there is also potential for conglomerate-hosted gold deposits. The Pilbara Region has recently become subject to significant investor interest due to the discovery of “watermelon seed” gold nuggets in basal Fortescue Group sediments. Prominent discoveries in the surrounding region include Novo Resources (Comet Well), Artemis Resources (MtOscarWits) and the Haoma Mining projects, including at the Comet Mine near Marble Bar and at Bamboo Creek.
The Licences sit within the Pilbara Goldfield and are highly prospective for gold mineralisation, with the Bamboo Creek and Daltons projects also prospective for base metals including copper, lead, nickel and associated precious metals including silver and platinum group elements.
The Bamboo Creek project comprises two contiguous granted Exploration Licences (E45/4560 and E45/4853) covering about 75km2. The Marble Bar project comprises two non-contiguous Prospecting Licence applications (P45/3039 and P45/3040) covering a total area of 11.285 hectares. The Daltons project comprises one granted Exploration Licence that covers just over 9 km2.
The Bamboo Creek, Marble Bar and Daltons projects are strategically located adjacent to projects owned by Haoma Mining NL ( Haoma ). Haoma recently announced the presence of gold-prospective conglomerate horizons similar to those of the Witwatersrand in South Africa. These were found within the Fortescue Group in their project areas at Bamboo Creek and Marble Bar (ASX Release 5 October 2017).
4
1825960_4_MRR Notice of Meeting (Buyside Acquisition) FINAL 13 12 17
The Bamboo Creek project area is also adjacent to the large Spinifex Ridge (Coppin Gap) porphyry copper–molybdenum deposit. The presence of the basal Mount Roe Basalt of the Fortescue Group within the Marble Bar project area is significant for its gold potential.
All of the project areas to be acquired contain old gold workings, while there is also Mount Roe Basalt either within the tenements, as at Marble Bar, or within the vicinity. The Company will be focussing on the gold deposits as a potential source for associated conglomerate-hosted gold deposits that may be Archean, Proterozoic or more recent in age. The proximity of Fortescue Group rocks to the project areas also raises the possibility of outliers or previously unrecognised Fortescue Group basal conglomerates within the project areas.
Please refer to the Company’s ASX Announcement dated 28 November 2017 for further details on the Projects.
1.3 HOA
The HOA provides that a reorganisation ( Reorganisation ) will occur prior to the Acquisition being implemented. The Reorganisation provides that the registered holders of E45/4560, E45/4681 and E45/4853 and Richard Parker will undertake the Reorganisation so that:

-
(b) SR (Sale Entity) Pty Ltd ( SR (Sale Entity) ) will beneficially hold 70% of E45/4560 and E45/4681, with the remaining 30% beneficially held by Hamersley Gold Pty Ltd ( Hamersley ); and
-
(c) upon grant, 70% of P45/3039 and P45/3040 ( Parker Tenements ) from Parker and Hamersley will beneficially hold 30% of P45/3039 and P45/3040, with Parker holding the remaining 70%;

6. RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF PLACEMENT SHARES
6.1 General
Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Placement Shares ( Ratification ).
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
6.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the Ratification:
-
(a) 6,250,000 Shares were issued;
-
(b) the issue price was $0.12 per Share;
-
(c) the Shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;
-

-
(e) the funds raised from this issue are to be used to support further exploration work at the Company’s Defector Extended tenement in Western Australia and its Heemskirk tenement in Tasmania. In addition, the funds will also assist with due diligence, deal negotiation costs, shareholder and regulatory approvals required for new corporate opportunity and additional working capital for ongoing costs together with funding the costs of the Placement.
