COMET VALE - Depth Potential

COMET VALE - Nickel
- Target komatiite-hosted massive nickel sulphides
- Tenements host extensive sequence of ultramafic lithologies over 5km strike.
- Siberia Komatiite
- Walter Williams Form
- Potential high-grade Ni Laterite resource in welldeveloped lateritic profile
- Limited previous exploration
- $-8m$ @ 1.48 % Ni (RC drill hole ELC5)
- inc. 5m @ 2.2 % Ni


MT FINNERTY PROJECT
- Brown-fields exploration $\bullet$ project
- 45 km of Watt Hills G/B
- Known high-grade gold and BIF-hosted Fe ore (hematite)
- 20 km of prospective Nisulphide hosting Ultramafic
- Exploration Targets:
- Archaean lode gold $\bullet$
- BIF-hosted iron ore $\bullet$
- Ni Sulphides


MT FINNERTY - Exploration
Airborne geophysical survey
• 8,248 line km at 100 m line spacing, 30 m sensor height
Preliminary results:
- Extensive ultramafic sequence, along strike from nickel sulphide occurrences.
- Several gold targets (shear zones, jogs, dislocations)
Rock Chip Sampling (Dec 03) 0.53% Ni, 11 ppm Cu, 0.31% Cr 0.61% Ni, 11 ppm Cu, 0.37% Cr 0.41% Ni, 5 ppm, 0.26% Cr 0.19% Ni, 71 ppm Cu, 0.41% Cr 0.26% Ni, 181 ppm Cu, 0.5% Cr 0.21% Ni 119 ppm Cu 0.45% Cr
BARRAMBIE PROJECT

- Advanced exploration project acquired April 2003
- Magmatic Ti-Fe±V oxide deposit in anorthosite-gabbro
- Previous evaluation bias toward vanadium
- Titanium potential not fully tested and evaluated
- PGMs, gold & nickel potential • 11 km strike length within mining lease M57/173
- LOW COST ENTRY INTO ۵ HUGE TITANIUM MARKET
