Schedule 2 – Details of the Vema Tenements
The Vema Tenements cover 416 km2 of highly prospective ground in central western Burkina Faso, West Africa. The area of the Vema Tenements covers the western extremity of the Houndé greenstone belt abutting the Taoudéni Basin (see Figure 1).

Figure 1 – Project location map showing Vema’s permits located in central western Burkina Faso.
The Vema Tenements are located approximately 230 km to the west of the capital Ouagadougou. The Vema Tenements are reached by the main road west to Dedougou which is predominantly bituminised. The Vema Tenements are readily accessible by 4WD tracks with little or no difficulty.
No artisanal mining was found in the areas visited. The land is flat-lying and the predominant activity is farming. Most of the Vema Tenements area is a fertile flood plain covered with seasonal crops. Occasional laterite outcrops form small mounds. All the flat areas are covered with fertile alluvial material.
There are numerous small villages on the 3 permits. The villages are traditional, made of mud bricks. There is a communal well in each village; the depth to water table is usually six to eight metres.
The Vema Tenements are located north north-east of Wona and Nyafe mineral deposits (Semafo – Mana gold mine) and is associated with a shear zone and volcanic-sedimentary rocks interface. Sotuba sandstones with laterite hard cap represent the main part of sedimentary rocks. Granites and schists of the base Birimian Greenstone belt are also present on the eastern part of the project, with remains of the hard laterite cap.
At Kari, on the outcropping laterite hard cap, there are many small blocks and pebbles of quartz suggesting the presence of quartz veining in the vicinity. Despite the lack of artisanal workings, and considering the existence of an important shear zone, the Company believes that there is potential for new gold discoveries beneath the laterite and thin alluvial cover.
17
Schedule 3 – Details of the Eburnean Tenements
The Eburnean Tenements comprise of two tenements which are 100% owned by Eburnean and three permits subject to options whereby Eburnean has the options to acquire a 100% interest in them. The Eburnean Tenements cover an area of 762km[2] and are all located in areas of potentially significant recent discoveries and mine development. Artisanal activity is present on all permits.

The Kana and Bilakongo permits represent an opportunity along dilational jogs and splays off the Mana Shear Zone. Lithostructural and regolith mapping has been completed. An 800 x 100 metre regional soil sampling program has recently been completed by Eburnean geologists. Anomalies coincide with N-S breaks truncated by NE-SW shears and are easy to follow up.
18
The Pepin and Guimba Permits lie adjacent to permits of intense exploration and resource development (High River Gold and Cluff Mining). Development of three further deposits in the immediate region is imminent. Long geological structures, and the contacts between clastic sediments and mafic volcanics, provide excellent opportunities for further gold discoveries. Abundant artisanal workings on the permits are concentrated along the Sabcé shear zone. No previous exploration has been carried out on these permits.
The Dobokuy Permit is set within a highly active major shear corridor of a Birimian greenstone belt, currently hosting over 25 advanced assets of various companies. No previous exploration has been carried out on this permit. Completed regional soil geochemistry by Eburnean geologists has outlined broad anomalies up to 3km in length, coinciding with structural traps and contacts between basalts and andesitic units. The region represents a significant opportunity for gold and VMS style discoveries.
Refer to the Company's ASX announcement of 24 July 2012 for further details of the Eburnean Tenements.
