To consider and, if thought fit, to pass the following resolution as a special resolution :
“That, in accordance with Section 256C(2) of the Corporations Act and for all other purposes, subject to approval by Stirling Gold Pty Limited, Territory Gold Pty Limited and DCM DECOmetal GMBH and Stirling Resources Limited shareholders, approval is given for the Company to make a selective reduction of capital and cancel a total of 222,664,264 Shares on the terms and conditions set out in the Explanatory Statement accompanying this Notice.”
Short Explanation : Under the Corporations Act, a company may make a selective reduction of its capital by a special resolution passed at a general meeting. The cancellation of 222,664,264 Shares is a selective reduction of capital and therefore must be approved by either a special resolution at a general meeting or by a resolution agreed to by all ordinary shareholders at a general meeting. Please refer to the Explanatory Statement for details.
Voting Exclusion : The Company will disregard any votes cast on this resolution by any person who is to receive consideration as part of the reduction or whose liability to pay amounts unpaid on shares is to be reduced, or any associates of those persons.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
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 which are the subject of the business of the Meeting.
1. BACKGROUND
1.1 General
On 10 July 2008, the Company went into administration with debts of around $50 million and to various creditors ( Creditors ).
In June 2009, the Company entered into a recapitalisation deed ( Recapitalisation Deed ) with Stirling Resources Limited ( Stirling ), Stirling Gold Pty Limited ( SRE Gold ), MGMC Pty Limited ( MGMC or the Trustee ), Crawley Investments Pty Limited ( Crawley ) Crawley Investments Pty Limited ( Crawley ) and Bryan Hughes as deed administrator of the Group Companies ( Deed Administrator ) pursuant to which it was proposed to recapitalise the Company.
Under the transaction contemplated by the Recapitalisation Deed
( Recapitalisation ):
-
(a) the Company issued 300,000,000 Shares to SRE Gold and 100,000,000 million free 3 year $0.05 Options and received a payment from SRE Gold of $15,000,000;
-
(b) the Company issued 35,000,000 Shares to Crawley in satisfaction of the $1,750,000 debt owed by the Company to Crawley ( Crawley Debt );
-
(c) the Group Companies were released from Creditors’ claims as at the commencement of administration and in return those Creditors had reciprocal claims against the following separate creditors’ trusts ( Creditors Trusts ) established under deeds of company arrangement of the Group Companies so that Creditors would receive 100 cents in the dollar:
-
(i) creditors of the Group Companies (other than Mt Ida Gold Pty Limited and Mt Ida Gold Operations Pty Limited), Territory Resources Limited ( Territory ) and Crawley ( Group Trust );
-
(ii) creditors of Mt Ida Gold Pty Limited and Mt Ida Gold Operations Pty Limited ( Mt Ida Trust ) other than Territory; and
-
(iii) Territory ( Territory Trust );
-
(d) ( payments to Creditors Trusts ) the Company agreed to make the following payments to the Creditors’ Trusts:
-
(i) Group Trust: $6,630,392 at completion and 3 equal payments of $3,209,300 within 4, 8 and 12 months from completion;
-
(ii) Mt Ida Trust: $1,201,838 at completion and 2 equal payments of $506,700 within 4 and 8 months from completion; and
-
(iii) Territory Trust:
6
- (A) $2,961,000 at completion and the difference between $25,533,281 and the sum of $2,961,000; and
- (B) all amounts due from Minjar Gold Pty Ltd from the sale of Monarch’s share in Minjar Gold Pty Ltd to Golden Stallion Resources Pty Ltd and any proceeds from the sale of the Davyhurst Project (if sold) within 24 months from Completion;
-
(e) ( issue to the Trustee ) the Company issued the following Shares to the Creditors' Trusts at a deemed issue price of $0.05 per Share, which were intended to be sold by the Trustee of the relevant Creditors' Trust over 12 months following and the net proceeds distributed amongst Creditors of the relevant Creditors' Trust:
-
(i) 178,206,960 Shares to the Group Trust; and
-
(ii) 30,625,384 Shares to the Mt Ida Trust; and
-
(f) various charges were granted by the Group Companies to the Creditors’ Trusts as security for the Company’s payment obligations under the Recapitalisation Deed.
On 26 February 2010, settlement of the Recapitalisation Deed occurred and the Company came out of administration. However, notwithstanding that settlement occurred, the Company continued to owe the Creditors Trusts approximately $23 million.
In November 2011, DCM and Territory reached agreement and settlement whereby the position of Territory in the Territory Trust and the shares in Swan Gold held by Territory were both assigned to DCM. As at the date of this Notice, Settlement of the transfer of Territory’s Shares in Swan is in the process of taking place and had not yet occurred.
As at the date of this Notice, the Company still owes the Creditors Trusts a total amount of approximately $24,460,305. Given this, the Company has been attempting for some time to dispose of its assets in order to repay these debts. Accordingly, after lengthy negotiations, on 18 August 2011 the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Carnegie Gold Pty Ltd ( Carnegie ) and Siberia Mining Corporation Pty Ltd ( Siberia ), entered into a conditional agreement with DCM ( Share Sale Agreement ) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell 100% of the issued shares in Carnegie and Siberia ( Sale Subsidiaries ), who hold the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold projects ( Mining Interests ), to DCM. The transactions contemplated by the Share Sale Agreement are collectively referred to as the Transaction .
A summary of the Share Sale Agreement is set out in Section 1.2 of this Explanatory Statement.

2. RESOLUTION 1
2.1 General
Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval for the disposal of the Shares pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.1 and ASX Listing Rule 11.2.
2.2 ASX Listing Rule 10.1 – general
Listing Rule 10.1 provides that an entity must seek the approval of its Shareholders before disposing of a substantial asset to a related party of the entity.
A related party under the Listing Rules has the same meaning as under the Corporations Act. DCM, who is purchasing the Sale Subsidiaries from the Company under the Share Sale Agreement, has a relevant interest in 222,664,264 Shares or 29.95% of the Shares in the Company. As a result, pursuant to Sections 228 and 50AA of the Corporations Act, DCM is a related party of the Company by virtue of being able to determine the outcome of decisions about the Company’s financial and operating policies.
Listing Rule 10.2 provides that an asset is a substantial asset if its value, or the value of the consideration for it is 5% or more of the equity interests of the entity as set out in the latest accounts given to ASX under the Listing Rules. Separate transactions will be aggregated if, in ASX’s opinion, they form part of the same commercial transaction. The Company’s interest in the Sale Subsidiaries is the Company’s primary asset and has a value which is greater than 5% of the Company’s equity interests. As a result, the shares in Carnegie and Siberia, which hold the Mining Interests, are a substantial asset of the Company for the purpose of Listing Rule 10.1.
Given DCM is a related party of the Company and the Shares are a substantial asset of the Company, Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.1 is required.
ASX Listing Rule 10.1 provides that Shareholder approval sought for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 10.1 must include a report on the proposed acquisition or disposal from an independent expert.
2.3 ASX Listing Rule 10.1 – Independent Expert’s Report
The Independent Expert's Report prepared by Stantons International Securities assesses whether the sale of the Sale Subsidiaries to DCM is fair and reasonable to the non-associated Shareholders of the Company. The advantages and disadvantages of the Transaction are outlined in Section 2.15 of this Notice and Section 6 of the Independent Experts’ Report and are provided to enable nonassociated Shareholders of the Company to determine whether they are better off if the Transaction proceeds than if it does not.
9
The Independent Expert’s Report concludes that the Transaction, on balance, is fair and reasonable to the non-associated Shareholders of the Company.
Shareholders are urged to carefully read the Independent Expert’s Report to understand the scope of the report, the methodology of the valuation and the sources of information and assumptions made.
2.4
ASX Listing Rule 11.2
Listing Rule 11.2 provides that an entity must seek the approval of its Shareholders before disposing of its main undertaking. The Sale Subsidiaries constitute greater than 50% of the Company’s assets. As a result, the Sale Subsidiaries, through their holdings of the Mining Interests, are the Company’s main undertaking.
As the proposed transaction represents the disposal of the Company’s main undertaking, Shareholder approval is sought pursuant to Resolution 1 for the Company to sell all of the issued shares in Carnegie and Siberia.
2.5
Description of the Carnegie Project
The Carnegie Gold Project is located approximately 120km north-west of Kalgoorlie, and is a core component of the Company’s consolidated gold resource base in the Goldfields of Western Australia. Historically, the Davyhurst field comprising Riverina, Mulline, Davyhurst, Siberia, Lady Ida and Kunanalling project areas has produced more than 1.5 million ounces of gold since 1897.
The Company acquired the Carnegie Project in November 2005, comprising at that time a JORC compliant resource, 841km[2 ] tenement package, a 1.2 million tonne per year gold processing facility, administration offices, an accommodation village and associated infrastructure.
In early 2006, the Company further expanded its position at Carnegie through a merger with Siberia. This merger resulted in the strategic consolidation of the nearby Siberia and Ida Gold Camp deposits in the Company’s existing holding, establishing a consolidated project with a combined JORC compliant resource base of approximately 1.5 million ounces of gold[1] within a 2,000 sq km tenement package including a centrally located gold treatment facility and production infrastructure.
Exploration
The combined Carnegie Project which is located within the prolific Davyhurst-Mt Ida greenstone belt has significant exploration potential. This belt hosts two major geological structures, the Zuleika Shear and the Mt Ida Fault, which have a close association with gold mineralisation in the region. The majority (80%) of past drilling in the area was completed to depths of less than 50 metres and was generally only focused on known deposits within a limited geological assessment.
1 This JORC compliant resource consists of a JORC compliant measured mineral resource of 236,000 tonnes @ 2.8 g/t for 21 oz of gold; a JORC compliant indicated mineral resource of 10,996,000 tonnes @ 2.2 g/t for 778 oz of gold; and a JORC compliant inferred mineral resource of 9,050,000 tonnes @ 2.4 g/t for 698 oz of gold.
10
The Company owns a comprehensive, verified and audited database of magnetic intensity, geochemical and drilling data for gold and nickel which combines more than 50 years of data.
Specialist geological consultants, SRK Consulting, completed a structural review and interpretation of the combined exploration database for the Carnegie Project, establishing a comprehensive exploration framework and outlining key exploration targets. Following the SRK report, Aster imagery was used to complete a regolith map developed to aid interpretation of the geochemical anomalies.
Aerial magnetics were re-flown over extensive areas of the tenements in order to improve the coverage and clarity of magnetic imaging, as well as processing the existing data. In addition, aerial photography over the leases was completed and integrated into the exploration database. An extensive programme of verification and integration of the data from the Carnegie and Siberia geological databases into a GIS database was conducted.
Riverina Gold Project
The Riverina Gold Project covers some 135 sq kms of granted tenements and is located immediately to the north of the Carnegie processing plant.
The project covers 24kms of the continuation north from the Carnegie processing plant of the Mt Ida greenstone belt and is widely mineralised. Mineralisation is located in sub-parallel veins which are amendable to open cut and underground mining.
Resource definition of RC drilling could focus on the area between the North and South shafts and also test a further 800 metres strike extent of mineralisation to the north of the optimised pit, where previous drilling was not of a density adequate for resource definition. The drilling tests numerous historically mined mineralised lodes, some of which do not have a surface expression.
Mulline
The Mulline project covers is located immediately to the south and west of the Riverina project area, and north of the Carnegie project area.
A number of relatively deep historic workings are present to the north and south of the Lady Jane pit at Mulline. Although the area has been tested by RAB drilling, depth of cover is relatively shallow and therefore depth of holes has generally been less than 20m. Minor RC drilling was completed however drilling has not adequately tested for mineralisation associated with the workings. There are also a number of laterite pits in the Mulline area where the source of the surficial mineralisation has not been determined in most cases.
Other deposits include Lady Gladys. Earlier mining initially used underground methods, with the most recent phase open cut.
Davyhurst
Recent exploration RC drilling on the Round Dam trend, a gold-mineralised corridor extending over 15kms from the Lady Eileen prospect in the north to the Salmon Gums prospect in the south, has recorded excellent results. The Round Dam trend is located only 4kms from the Carnegie mill at its northern extent.
11
Historically exploration over the 15kms of the Round dam trend has been confined to shallow, wide spaced RAB drilling which leaves the potential for significant further discoveries.
Siberia
The Siberia Projects lies approximately 30km to the south east of the Carnegie processing plant. It includes the Siberia Gold Camp which contains the Missouri, Sand King, Palmerston, Camperdown, Black Rabbit and Berwick-Moreing deposits.
The Black Rabbit deposit is located at the southern extent of the Siberia mining camp, 40km from the Carnegie processing plant.
Lady Ida
The Lady Ida areas cover an area from Lizard to Callion and is 20-100 kilometres south of the Carnegie processing plant. Exploration advanced the project through extensive programmes of soil sampling, auger drilling and RAB drilling. This work has defined large linear anomalous gold zones including the Lizard, Iguana and Blue Tongue deposits.
2.6 Description of the Mt Ida Project
The Mt Ida project is a small high grade underground deposit located 60 kms north east of the Carnegie processing plant.
The Company acquired 100% of the total tenement package covering approximately 500 sq km.
The project occupies the northern extension of the Mt Ida Structural Zone which is the regional host structure to several significant gold discoveries including the Kundana, Carnegie and Riverina projects to the south. The Mt Ida project shear zone represents an attractive exploration target over the entire 25 km of identified strike extent. The zone within the project area is marked by numerous historical workings and mines.
Gold was first discovered in this area in the mid 1980s and the Mt Ida region has produced in excess of 265,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 16.3 g/t Au.
The major focus of exploration conducted within the Mt Ida project area surrounds the immediate vicinity of the Timoni mine. The exploration and development focus is currently on the Baldock, Meteor and Whinnen shoots.
Meteor requires final reserve definition drilling to establish the final layout for mine planning. The Meteor shoot could be developed to provide ongoing ore supply from the mine, subject to final reserve results. Development could be from the Baldock access levels.
Mining at Mt Ida was planned by underground mining methods consisting of small scale rail mounted hand held development and bar and arm style longhole stoping. Access to the workings via the refurbished Timoni shaft.
Mining ceased in July 2008 following the appointment of administrators and the workings have been kept on care and maintenance since.
12
2.7 Competent Persons Statement
The information in this Notice that relates to Exploration Results and Mineral Resources of Swan has been prepared by Mr Malcolm Castle, who is a member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Castle is a consultant to the Company. Mr Castle has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which they are undertaking to qualify as Competent Persons as defined in the 2004 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves.’ Mr Castle consents to the inclusion in this Notice of the matters based on the information in the form and context in which they appear.
2.8 Value of the Transaction
The Directors believe that the value to be realised under the Transaction represent the best available outcome for all Shareholders. The Directors believe that the Transaction offers a greater return on equity to Shareholders than continuing to hold the Project, with the consequent cost of further equity and debt capital raisings, as well as the exposure to regulatory, developmental, operational and market related risks. The Directors also had regard to the release of liabilities of the Company affected by the Share Sale Agreement.
In considering the value of the Project, the Directors had regard to the requirements for substantial funding to continue to define the resource, maintain the tenements and to the significant amount of capital which would be required to exploit the resource. As far as possible, Directors also considered the market value of listed companies with similar resources. The directors are satisfied that the consideration stated in section 1.2 of this Notice is regarded as fair because:
-
(a) it recognises the value of the Project which has been widely and publically marketed for a considerable period;
-
(b) it eliminates future development and regulatory risk;
-
(c) it enhances the value for the remaining shareholders by the substantial share cancellation which is part of the Transaction;
-
(d) it extinguishes all liabilities and claims arising from the Recapitalisation Deed; and
-
(e) it provides the Company with the capacity to seek out new opportunities and projects to enhance Shareholder wealth and to consider other capital management initiatives.
The Company has also had regard to the Independent Expert’s Report attached to this Notice as Schedule 1 which determined that the Transaction is fair and reasonable to Shareholders.
2.9 Intentions of the Company if the Transaction is approved and implemented
The release of the various debts and securities and the proceeds of the sale will allow the Company to actively pursue other investment opportunities in the resources industry and any other industry where opportunities arise which may be in the shareholder’s best interests. Shareholders should note that, if the Company disposes of its main undertaking as proposed, any future business or
13
asset acquisition may be subject to the Company re-complying with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules, as required by ASX Listing Rule 11.1.3.
The Directors will also consider other capital management alternatives with respect to the proceeds.
2.10 Intentions of the Company if the Transaction is not approved and implemented
The Company will continue to actively market the Project and evaluate new opportunities in the resource sector to divest the assets (in whole or part), pursue joint venture arrangements or return tenements to the regulatory authorities should the Company not be able to hold the relevant tenements. DCM will remain a shareholder in the Company, and Carnegie and Siberia will remain wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.

14
2.12 Effect of the Share Sale Agreement and Resolution 1 on the Company, Shareholders and Optionholders
If the Share Sale Agreement is approved and completed:
-
(a) the Company will cease to hold any interest in Carnegie, Siberia and the Projects;
-
(b) the Company’s assets will comprise approximately $5,000,000 cash, office furniture and equipment;
-
(c) the Company will continue to evaluate potential exploration/mining opportunities in the resource sector and any other opportunities that are presented to the Company in other sectors; and
-
(d) in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.1.3, the Company may be required to re-comply with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules in relation to any future asset or business acquisition.
A condition precedent to the Share Sale Agreement is that, subject to settlement occurring, all shareholdings that Stirling, Territory and DCM hold in the Company will be cancelled.
Stirling, Territory and DCM currently have the following shareholdings in the Company:
-
(a) Stirling – 176,981,690 Shares and 60,433,903 Options;
-
(b) Territory – 39,849,657 Shares and nil Options; and
-
(c) DCM – 5,832,917 Shares and nil Options.
Accordingly, if Resolutions 1 and 2 are approved and Stirling shareholders approve the cancellation of its Shares in the Company, the number of Shares held in the Company by a Shareholder other than Stirling, Territory and DCM, will remain the same, however, their percentage holding in the Company will increase. The Shares held by Stirling, Territory and DCM equate to 29.95% of the issued capital of the Company.
In particular MGMC Pty Ltd as trustee for The Group Trust and Mt Ida Trust ( MGMC ) presently holds 208,832,344 Shares in the Company (being 178,206,960 ATF The Group Trust and 30,625,384 ATF The Mt Ida Trust) which equates to 28.09% of the issued capital of the Company. If the proposed selective capital reduction proceeds, MGMC’s voting power will increase to 40.09%.
As stated above, all shareholdings that Stirling, Territory and DCM hold in the Company will be cancelled. However, those parties will retain the Options they hold in the Company, being 60,433,903 which are held entirely by Stirling.
Accordingly, if the Share Sale Agreement is approved and completed, the number of Options in the Company will remain the same.

2.15 Advantages and disadvantages of the disposal
Set out below are non-exhaustive lists of what the Directors consider to be the advantages and disadvantages of the Transaction.
Advantages
The Directors believe that the following non-exhaustive list of advantages may be relevant to a Shareholder’s decision on how to vote on the proposed Transaction:
-
(a) the realisation of significant value for the Company’s interest in the Project;
-
(b) all debts due by the Company to the Mt Ida Trust, Group Trust, Territory Trust and Stirling will be extinguished when all respective amounts are paid or extinguished in full at settlement of the Transaction; and
-
(c) the proceeds of the sale would allow the Company to actively pursue other investment opportunities.
Disadvantages
The Directors believe that the following non-exhaustive list of disadvantages may be relevant to a Shareholder’s decision on how to vote on the proposed Transaction:
-
(a) the Company will not be able to participate in or derive any future potential profits from the Project;
-
(b) the Transaction may not be consistent with the investment objectives of all Shareholders; and
-
(c) the Projects and its related tenements may not be able to be retained due to regulatory requirements of minimum expenditures.
2.16
Section 208 of the Corporations Act
Under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, a public company cannot give a “financial benefit” to a “related party” unless one of the exceptions to the section apply or shareholders have in general meeting approved the giving of that financial benefit to the related party.
As noted above, DCM is a related party of the Company. In addition, the Transaction may constitute a “financial benefit” as defined in the Corporations Act.
17
The Directors consider that the Transaction is on arm’s length terms. This is consistent with the finding in the Independent Expert’s Report that the Transaction is fair and reasonable to Shareholders. Accordingly, the Directors consider that the Transaction falls within the arm’s length terms exception provided by Section 210 of the Corporations Act to the requirement to obtain shareholder approval under Part 2E of the Corporations Act. As such, the Company is not seeking approval under Section 208 of the Corporations Act.
2.17 Directors’ recommendation
For the reasons set out in this Explanatory Statement, the Directors consider that the proposed Transaction is in the best interests of the Company and of Shareholders, and recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution.
A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.
3. RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL FOR SELECTIVE REDUCTION OF CAPITAL
3.1 General
This resolution relates to Resolution 2 of the Notice of General Meeting.
As set out in Section 1 above, a condition precedent for the Transaction is the cancellation of all of Territory, Stirling and DCM’s Shares in the Company (being 222,664,264 Shares).
Accordingly, this Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the reduction of capital by way of a cancellation of all of the fully paid ordinary shares in the Company held by Territory, Stirling and DCM by way of a selective reduction of capital.
3.2 Corporations Act
Pursuant to Section 256C of the Corporations Act, a company may make a selective capital reduction if it is approved by a special resolution passed at a general meeting of the Company, with no votes being cast in favour of the resolution by any person who is to receive consideration as part of the reduction or whose liability to pay amounts unpaid on shares is to be reduced. If the reduction of capital involves the cancellation of shares, the reduction must also be approved by a special resolution passed at a meeting of the shareholders whose shares are to be cancelled.
The Corporations Act provides that the rules relating to a reduction of share capital are designed to protect the interests of shareholders and creditors by:
-
(a) addressing the risk of the transaction leading to the Company’s solvency;
-
(b) seeking to ensure fairness between the shareholders of the Company; and
-
(c) requiring the Company to disclose all material information.
In particular, Section 256B of the Corporations Act requires that a Company may only reduce its capital if:
18
-
(a) it is fair and reasonable to the shareholders as a whole;
-
(b) it does not materially prejudice the Company’s ability to pay its creditors; and
-
(c) it is approved by shareholders in accordance with Section 256C of the Corporations Act.
Section 256C(4) of the Corporations Act requires that the Company must include with the Notice a statement setting out all information known to the Company that is material to the decision on how to vote on the resolution. However, the Company does not have to disclose information if it would be unreasonable to require the Company to do so because the Company had previously disclosed the information to shareholders.
The Directors believe that the capital reduction as proposed is fair and reasonable to shareholders for the reasons set out in this Explanatory Statement and that the capital reduction will not prejudice the Company’s ability to pay its creditors. Further, the Directors believe that it is appropriate that the Shares be cancelled in the circumstances.
Pursuant to Section 256C(2) of the Corporations Act, a selective reduction of capital must be approved by either:
-
(a) a special resolution passed at a general meeting of the Company, with no votes being cast in favour of the resolution by any person who is to receive consideration as part of the reduction or whose liability to pay amounts unpaid on shares is to be reduced, or by their associates; or
-
(b) a resolution agreed to, at a general meeting by all ordinary shareholders.
The phrase “no votes being cast” is intended to operate in a similar way to the way in which voting exclusion statements operate in the context of the Listing Rules.
In addition, the capital reduction must be approved by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting attended by Territory, Stirling and DCM, the Shareholders whose Shares are to be cancelled. The capital reduction will proceed only if both resolutions are passed by the Shareholders and Territory, Stirling and DCM. If one or both resolutions are not passed, Territory, Stirling and DCM will remain Shareholders. Stirling and DCM have advised that they will be supporting the capital reduction.
3.3 Summary of and Effect of Proposed Selective Capital Reduction
The overall effect of the selective capital reduction and cancellation of the shares held by Territory, Stirling and DCM is as follows:
hares held by Territory, Stirling and DCM is as follows: |
|
|---|---|
| Current Issued capital Less: Shares subject of capital reduction and cancellation Issued capital upon completion of capital reduction and cancellation of the Capital Reduction Shares |
Shares 743,487,661 (222,664,264) |
| 520,823,397 |
19
The Shares the subject of the selective capital reduction and cancellation represent 29.95% of the issued capital of the Company as at the date of this Notice.
The primary effects of the capital reduction on the control of the Company will be to decrease Territory, Stirling and DCM’s shareholding in the Company to zero and increase the remaining Shareholders percentage interest in the Company.
3.4 Directors’ Recommendation
The Directors believe that the proposed capital reduction is in the best interests of Shareholders as the cancellation of the Shares forms part of the Transaction. The Directors have determined that the Company has a greater chance of increasing shareholder value by cancelling the shares the subject of the Transaction. For this reason, the Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the capital reduction.
3.5 Other Material Information
There is no information material to the making of a decision by a Shareholder whether or not to approve the Resolution being information that is known to any of the Directors and which has not been previously disclosed to shareholders in the Company, other than as disclosed in this Explanatory Statement.
Once the Resolutions are passed by Shareholders and Territory, Stirling and DCM, the Company will not make the reduction of capital until at least 14 days after lodgement of the Resolution with the ASIC.

==> picture [157 x 16] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [95 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
Trusts”) established under the Deeds of Company Arrangement of the Group Companies so that Creditors receive 100c in the dollar:
-
(i) creditors of the Group Companies (other than Mt Ida Gold Pty Limited and Mt Ida Gold Operations Pty Limited), Territory and Crawley (“Group Trust”);
-

As at 22 November 2011 the Company still owes the Creditors Trusts a total amount of approximately $24,460,305. Given this, the Company has been attempting for some time to dispose of its assets in order to repay these debts.
Its major assets are the Carnegie (formerly Davyhurst) and Mt Ida Gold Projects. Refer the balance sheets noted in paragraph 4.4.1 below. Stirling via support from DCM was financially supporting Swan from March 2010.
On 18 August 2011, the Company entered into a contract with DCM for DCM to acquire 100% of the shares in Carnegie Gold Pty Ltd (“Carnegie”) and Siberia Mining

-
An agreement is executed between DCM and Territory Resources Limited (“Territory”) in its capacity as beneficiary under the Territory Trust to which Territory will assign to DCM and DCM will take an assignment of all Territory’s rights and interests in the Territory Trust. The Territory Trust is owed an amount of $13,647,902 by Swan;
-
An agreement is executed between Swan and Stirling Resources Limited (“Resources”) pursuant to which Stirling agrees to cancel the Stirling Debt ($7,510,000 as at 18 August 2011 but as at 15 November is $7,589,000) for no consideration upon Settlement;
-
Each of Territory, Stirling and DCM (and their Related Bodies Corporate) agreeing to cancel all of their Swan Shares, subject to Settlement occurring. The Territory Group will cancel 39,849,657 shares in Swan (these shares have been acquired by DCM but not transferred to DCM as at 21 November 2011), the Stirling Group will cancel 176,981,690 shares in Swan and DCM will cancel 5,832,917 shares in Swan pursuant to this cancellation clause.

DCM will fund the ongoing operations of Swan until the Transaction is completed and this must occur on or before 18 February 2012.

The non refundable advances are to be provided from the Execution Date (18 August 2011) until the later of six months, the Settlement Date and the Agreement is terminated. The amount advanced to 15 November 2011 is $1,100,000 and advances are being made at around $450,000 per month.

1.3 Listing Rule 10.1 of the ASX Listing Rules provides that shareholder approval is required for a listed company to acquire or dispose of a substantial asset from or to related parties or a substantial shareholder. The Sale Subsidiaries are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Swan, which in turn holds title to current mining tenements forming part of the Mt Ida and Carnegie Gold Projects. DCM is proposing to acquire the Sale Subsidiaries from Swan by the purchase of all of the shares in the Sale Subsidiaries for the Consideration as noted above. The sale of the Sale Subsidiaries is a sale of substantial assets for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.1 as the carrying value of the underlying assets being sold represents more than 5% of the Company’s last audited net assets. DCM is deemed a substantial shareholder under ASX Listing Rule 10.1 as it has a relevant interest in 83.03% of Stirling that owns 176,981,690 shares in Swan, a direct shareholding in Swan of 5,832,917 shares and a relevant interest in 39,849,757 shares in Swan formerly held by Territory but acquired by DCM on 5 November 2011 as part of acquiring all of the shares in Swan and debt owing to Territory for a total consideration of $6,738,451. Collectively, the interests in Swan total approximately 29.95% shareholding interest in Swan. The Listing Rule requires an Independent Expert's Report as to whether the relevant transaction is fair and reasonable to nonassociated shareholders.
-
1.4 In determining the fairness and reasonableness of the Transaction, we have had regard for the definitions set out by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (“ASIC”) in its Regulatory Guide 111, “Content of Expert Reports”. Regulatory Guide 111 states that an opinion as to whether an offer is fair and/or reasonable shall entail a comparison between the offer price and the value that may be attributed to the securities under offer (fairness) and an examination to determine whether there is justification for the offer price on objective grounds after reference to that value (reasonableness). The concept of “fairness” is taken to be the value of the offer price, or the consideration, being equal to or greater than the value of the securities in the above mentioned offer. An offer is “reasonable” if it is fair. An offer may also be reasonable, if despite not being ”fair”, there are sufficient grounds for security holders to accept the offer in the absence of any higher bid before the close of the offer.
-
1.5 The Company has requested Stantons International Securities to prepare an Independent Expert’s Report to determine whether the proposals outlined in resolution 1 (“the Transaction”) are fair and reasonable to the shareholders of Swan (not associated with DCM). We have also considered the proposal to cancel 222,664,264 shares in Swan (resolution 2), in determining our opinion on the fairness and/or reasonableness of the Transaction as noted above and in resolution 1.

1.6 Apart from this introduction, this report considers the following:
-
Summary of opinion;
-
Implications of the proposals;
-
Future directions of Swan;
-
Basis of valuation of Sale Subsidiary shares;
-
Fairness and Reasonableness of the proposals under resolution 1;
-
Conclusion as to fairness and reasonableness;
-
Sources of information; and
-
Appendix A and B and our Financial Services Guide.
1.7 In our opinion, in the absence of a superior proposal, the proposals as outlined in resolution 1 are on balance, fair and reasonable to the shareholders of Swan not associated with DCM.
The opinions expressed above must be read in conjunction with the more detailed analysis and comments made in this report, including the Independent Geologist's Valuation Report (Agricola Valuation Report) on the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects (“Mineral Assets”) of the Sale Subsidiaries prepared by Agricola Mining Consultants Pty Ltd (dated 23 November 2011) (“Agricola”) a copy of which is attached as Appendix B to this report. The author of the Agricola Valuation Report is Malcolm Castle.
2. Implications of the Proposals
-
2.1 As at 23 November 2011 there were 743,487,661 fully paid shares on issue in Swan.
-
2.2 The current Board of Directors is comprised of Allan Brown, Ian Price and Ildiko Wowesny (and Company Secretary). The Board is not expected to change in the near future but may alter if a new significant project is acquired.
-
2.3 The significant ordinary shareholders as at 29 July 2011 are believed to be:
| MGMC Pty Ltd (Group Account) Stirling Gold Pty Ltd Susan Kiernan Territory MGMC (Mt Ida Account) |
No. of fully paid ordinary shares % of issued ordinary shares 178,206,960 23.97 176,981,690 23.80 40,000,000 5.38 39,849,657 5.36 30,625,384 4.12 |
|---|---|
| 465,663,691 62.63 |
The top 20 shareholders at 29 July 2011 owned approximately 77.13% of the issued ordinary capital of the Company. DCM has announced that it has acquired all of the shares in Swan held by Territory but the transfer of the shares has yet to be registered and will probably not be registered until around Completion date expected in February 2012.
- 2.4 Swan would cease to be the owner of the Sale Subsidiaries (and their subsidiaries as noted above), and no longer own the rights to the all of the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects post obtaining shareholder approval under resolution 1 and as a result of entering into the agreement with DCM. Swan would receive the Consideration as noted in paragraph 1.2 above and after settlement of debts, would be a company with cash approximating $5,000,000 and no material debts (but on-going administration and corporate costs). Swan would also own two non operating subsidiaries that have no assets.
SWA5683 – Swan Gold Sale of Subsidiaries November 2011 5
==> picture [157 x 16] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [95 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
- 2.5 The movement in the issues shares would be as follows:
| Shares on issue 22 November 2011 | 743,487,661 |
|---|---|
| Cancelation of shares held by Stirling | (176,981,690) |
| Cancellation of shares held by DCM/Territory | (45,682,574) |
| Shares on Completion of the Transaction | 520,823,397 |
No consideration is payable by Swan for the cancellation of the shares held by Stirling and DCM.
The debts of the Swan Group and the potential movement thereof are as follows:
| Secured Debts as at 22 November 2011 Owing to MGMC – Group Trust Owing to MGMC – Mt Ida Trust Owing to MGMC – Territory Trust Less; Assigned to DCM and payable by DCM Owing post Completion of the Transaction Owing to Stirling Less: Debt cancelled by agreement Owing after Completion of the Transaction Other Creditors and Provisions owing as at 30 June 2011 Owing by subsidiaries Owing by Swan Less: Assumed by DCM as a result of acquiring Sale Subsidiaries Owing as at 30 June 2011 after Completion |
9,970,003 1,103,400 13,478,902 24,552,305 (24,552,305) |
9,970,003 1,103,400 13,478,902 |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| NIL 7,589,000 (7,589,000) NIL 5,091,101 30,681 5,121,782 (5,091,101) 30,681 |
|||
The trade creditors of Swan will be paid out of existing cash reserves. Costs post 30 June 2011 are to be met by new non refundable funding by DCM expected to total up to $3,000,000 by Completion.
In effect post Completion of the Transaction, Swan will cease to own the Sale Subsidiaries (and their subsidiaries), have no interests in the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects and be virtually debt free. It will have cash funds of $5,000,000 and an amount owing to small creditors on Completion. Swan would also own two non operating subsidiaries that have no assets. Thus the net assets of the Company will approximate $5,000,000 on Completion.
3. Future Directions of Swan
3.1
We have been advised by a director of Swan that:
-
The current focus of the Company is to complete the recapitalisation of Swan including Completion of the Transaction;
-
The composition of the Board will not change in the near future (refer paragraph 2.2 of the report);
-
No dividend policy has been set and it is not proposed to be set until such time as the Company is profitable and has a positive cash flow; and
-
The Company may seek new business opportunities. To undertake these, further capital raisings may take place.

4. Basis of Valuation of Sale Subsidiary Shares
4.1 Ordinary Shares
-
4.1.1 In considering the proposals outlined in resolution 1, we have sought to determine if the consideration payable by DCM to acquire the Sale Subsidiaries (and effectively the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects) by way of purchase of all of the Sale Subsidiary shares is fair and reasonable to the existing non- associated shareholders of Swan.
-
4.1.2 The Transaction pursuant to resolution 1 would be fair to the existing non associated shareholders if the implicit value of the asset (the shares of the Sale Subsidiaries) being sold to DCM is less than the value of the Consideration payable by DCM. Accordingly, we have sought to determine a theoretical value that could reasonably be placed on the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects and Sale Subsidiaries shares for the purposes of this report.
-
4.1.3 The valuation methodologies we have considered in determining a theoretical value of the Sale Subsidiaries ordinary shares are:
-
Capitalise maintainable earnings/discounted cash flow;
-
Takeover bid - the price at which an alternative acquirer might be willing to offer;
-
Adjusted net backing and windup value; and
-
The market price of the Sale Subsidiaries shares.
-
4.2 Capitalise maintainable earnings and discounted cash flows.
-
4.2.1 Due to the Sale Subsidiaries current operations, a lack of profit history arising from business undertakings and the lack of a reliable future cash flow from an existing current business activity, we have considered these methods of valuation not to be relevant for the purpose of this report. DCM is in effect acquiring the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects and may develop and commercialise such projects in the near future. However, Swan has been unable to commercialise the Projects due to high debt levels and lack of cash. The Company endeavoured to raise new capital in 2009/10 but were unsuccessful and thus could not develop the Gold Projects as envisaged.
4.3 Takeover Bid
-
4.3.1 It is possible that a potential bidder for the Sale Subsidiaries could purchase all or part of the existing shares, however no certainty can be attached to this occurrence. To our knowledge, there are no current bids in the market place and the directors of Swan have formed the view that there is unlikely to be any takeover bids made for the Sale Subsidiaries in the immediate future (other than for the Transaction Proposal with DCM).
-
4.4 Net Asset Backing
-
4.4.1 We set out below an unaudited consolidated Balance Sheet of the Swan Group as at 30 June 2011, a consolidated balance sheet of the Sale Subsidiaries and a pro forma balance sheet of Swan following completion of the Transactions and assuming repayment of all Swan creditors and receipt of a further $79,000 from Stirling. No account is taken of further losses post 30 June 2011 that are been financed by DCM. The advances being made by DCM are non refundable and are being made to finance losses incurred by the Swan Group until Completion of the Transaction. It is assumed that the Swan parent plant is depreciated by a further $50,000.

-
4.4.2 Based on the unaudited book value of the Sale Subsidiaries, this equates to a value per fully paid ordinary share of approximately nil cents (ignoring the value, if any, of non-booked tax benefits). The amount owing to Swan of $101,346,420 is disclosed in the consolidated balance sheet of the Sale Subsidiaries however Swan has written down the total amounts owing by the Swan Subsidiaries by $89,626,474 to $11,717,946 as at 30 June 2011.
-
4.4.3 No detailed review was made by us of the assets and liabilities disclosed in the unaudited adjusted consolidated balance sheet of the Sale Subsidiaries as at 30 June 2011. The primary assets of the Sale Subsidiaries are the interests in the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects. We, in conjunction with the Company commissioned Agricola author of the AgrIcola Valuation Report is Malcolm Castle) to value the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Project tenements held by the Sale Subsidiaries (or their subsidiaries, where applicable) which are to be sold as part of resolution 1 (sold via selling all of the shares in the Sale Subsidiaries). We have been assured, by management of Swan that other than the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Project tenements, they believe the carrying value of all current and non current assets and liabilities at 30 June 2011 are fair and not materially misstated. The plant and equipment relating to the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects was built many years ago and will need significant renovations and upgrades to allow commercial operations to recommence. The value of the mining plant and equipment relating to Carnegie (approximately $7,727,000) and Mt Ida (approximately $1,016,000) is only worth book value or more
SWA5683 – Swan Gold Sale of Subsidiaries November 2011 8
==> picture [157 x 16] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [95 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
on the basis that the plant can be used for gold mining operations. No formal valuation is deemed necessary to be obtained for such plant and equipment as it is not the intention to sell the plant on a non commercial basis and it would be expected that the cash realisable value (scrap value) would be significantly below book values. The plant has not been depreciated since the Swan Group fell into Administration and even after Administration as the plant is on a care and maintenance basis.
The Agricola Valuation Report is attached as Appendix B to this report. We have used and relied on the Independent Valuation Report on the Mineral Assets and have satisfied ourselves that:
-
Agricola is a suitably qualified geological consulting firm and has relevant experience in assessing the merits of mineral projects and preparing mineral asset valuations (also the author of the report, Malcolm Castle is suitably qualified and experienced);
-
Agricola is independent from Swan and DCM; and
-
Agricola has employed sound and recognised methodologies in the preparation of the Independent Valuation Report.
Agricola indicates that the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Tenements have a value in the range from $28,800,000 to $37,300,000 with a preferred value range of approximately $33,000,000.
-
4.4.4 We note that it is not the present intention of the Directors of Swan to liquidate the Sale Subsidiaries and therefore any theoretical value based upon wind up value or even net book value, is just that, theoretical. However, in the absence of Swan entering into the Transaction or some other commercial proposal to recapitalise the Swan Group, there would be the distinct possibility that the Swan Group (including the Sale Subsidiaries) would be liquidated.
-
4.4.5 In arriving at our view on the valuation of the Sale Subsidiaries, we have, inter-alia considered the following factors:
-
The current state of the underlying assets, in particular the phase of exploration of the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects;
-
The lack of cash funds of the Swan Group;
-
The situation is that Swan as a parent entity is in a net liability position;
-
The ability to produce positive cash flow and profits over a period of time is still uncertain;
-
The owners of the Swan Subsidiaries need to obtain sufficient working capital to meet minimum exploration commitments;
-
The cash flows of Swan; and
-
The risks associated with commercialisation of the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects.
4.5 Summary of valuation methodology and conclusion
The Sale Subsidiaries, based on the unaudited balance sheets, have a negative net asset backing value. Accordingly, the net assets backing should be adjusted for the fair value of all mining tenement that the Sale Subsidiaries hold. Thus, we have relied on the Agricola independent valuation of the Carnegie and Mt Ida tenements to allow us to arrive at a fair value of the Sale Subsidiaries. The adjusted mineral assets would total $33,000,000 (at preferred values). Therefore, based on the technical valuation of the Carnegie and Mt Ida tenements, we believe the fair value of the Sale Subsidiaries is $nil (assuming the liabilities remain the same, including the liabilities totalling $101,346,420 to Swan the parent entity). Swan is carrying the intercompany loans to the Sale Subsidiaries at a written down value of $11,717,946 compared with the book
SWA5683 – Swan Gold Sale of Subsidiaries November 2011 9
==> picture [157 x 16] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [95 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
values in the Sale Subsidiaries of $101,346,420. If the intercompany loans in the books of the Sale Subsidiaries were reduced to $11,717,946, the net position of the Sale Subsidiaries after taking into account the preferred valuation of the mineral assets at $33,000,000 would approximate $37,465,890. Ignoring the intercompany loans but using the preferred valuation for the Tenements of $33,000,000, the net fair value may approximate $49,183,836. It is noted that the net assets of the Swan Group approximate $4,674,175 as at 30 June 2011 and following the Completion of the Transaction, the net assets are increased to $5,204,175 but a company that is cashed up and debt free and may seek re-quotation of its shares and seek a new business opportunity. However, Swan will no longer have an interest in the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects.
-
4.6 The value of Swan based on using adjusted book values as at 30 June 2011 (adjusted for the assessed fair value of the Tenements by Agricola) would lie in the range of approximately $13,033,000 to $21,533,000 with a preferred adjusted book value of $17,233,000. This equates to a value per share of between approximately 1.75 cents and 2.89 cents with a preferred value of around 2.31 cents. However, it should be noted that the Company has a going concern problem and in the event that the Transaction does not proceed or some other commercial reconstruction proposal is not put in place there is the high chance that the Company and its subsidiaries may be placed back into Administration.
-
4.7 From Swan’s perspective, the carrying value of the shares in and loans to the Sale Subsidiaries is approximately $21,494,979 however Swan post the Completion of the Transaction Group will receive $5,000,000 under the Transaction proposals. The fair value of the net assets given up (shares in the Sale Subsidiaries that will represent in effect the sale of the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects) is $nil but ignoring the intercompany loan would approximate $49,183,836 (and $37,465,890 if the intercompany debt was eliminated to $11,717,496) yet the amount to be received is $5,000,000, the elimination of $24,460,305 of debt due to MGMC, the assumption of debts by DCM totalling $4,542,882 in the books of the Swan Subsidiaries and the elimination of the debt due to Stirling that is now estimated at $7,589,000 (all totalling $41,592,187). In addition, 222,664,664 shares are to be cancelled (as noted in resolution 2) and arguably these shares have a value between 1.75 cents and 2.89 cents (approximately $3,896,600 to $6,435,000 with a preferred valuation of $5,189,750. Taking all factors into account, in effect the total consideration including share cancellations is between approximately $45,489,000 (rounded) to $48,027,000 (rounded) with a preferred total consideration of approximately $46,781,000. It is also noted that DCM is paying all costs of the Swan Group that may total approximately $3,000,000 by the time of completion of the Transaction.
5. Conclusion as to Fairness
-
5.1 The proposals pursuant to resolution 1 are believed to be fair to Swan’s nonassociated shareholders if the value of the Considerations offered is equal to or greater than the value of the shares in the Sale Subsidiaries to be sold to DCM.
-
5.2 Due to the nature of the business of the Sale Subsidiaries, the valuation of the Sale Subsidiaries is dependent upon the values placed on the underlying assets of the Sale Subsidiaries and in particular, the Carnegie and Mt Ida tenements. The valuation of the Carnegie and Mt Ida tenements being sold (via selling the shares in the Sale Subsidiaries) has been independently determined as being $33,000,000 (at preferred valuation) and the net value of the shares is approximately $nil (but refer comments above re intercompany loans that if eliminated and/or reduced would result in a higher value for the Sale Subsidiaries).
SWA5683 – Swan Gold Sale of Subsidiaries November 2011 10
==> picture [157 x 16] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [95 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
-
5.3 The proposed Consideration receivable under resolution 1 and the Share Sale Agreement between Swan and DCM of 18 August 2011 is deemed greater than the value of the shares in the Sale Subsidiaries.
-
5.4 We have concluded that the fair value of the shares in the Sale Subsidiaries totals $nil (before the sale of the Sale Subsidiaries due to large loans due to Swan by the Sale Subsidiaries) and is this is less than the proposed Considerations to be received (refer 4.7 above) therefore the proposals under resolution 1 (and on the basis that 222,664,664 shares in Swan are cancelled as noted above) are considered to be fair. On a pure technical basis and assuming the intercompany balances are eliminated, the Transaction would not be fair but note that the total consideration range is not materially different to the assessed value of the shares in the Sale Subsidiaries and that the Swan Group has been unable to finance the development of the Tenements and raise new equity despite attempting to do so over the past 18 months.
6. Reasonableness of the Transaction under Resolution 1 and the recapitalisation and restructure generally
- 6.1 We set out below some of the advantages and disadvantages and other factors pertaining to the proposals pursuant to resolution 1.
Advantages
-
6.2 The Company will be in a position to acquire fresh new mineral assets as after Completion of the Transaction, it will be cashed up with approximately a net $5,204,175 and have no debts of a material nature. The estimated cash position will be $5,000,000. The operating costs of the Company are being met by non refundable advances from DCM up until Completion of the Transaction.
-
6.3 In addition, the Swan Group is relieved, in the first year after sale, from incurring annual exploration commitments on the Carnegie and Mt Ida tenements of approximately $5,000,000. This is a significant saving to the Swan Group who wish to concentrate exploration activities elsewhere.
-
6.4 There is no certainty that the Carnegie and Mt Ida projects will be economically viable in the short to medium term. Accordingly, the Company may be divesting itself of projects which may be worth considerably less (later on) than the value being offered by DCM. The Company has been trying for several years to raise capital so it can complete feasibilities and attempt to commercialise the Carnegie and Mt Ida gold Projects. Preliminary forecasts completed in 2010 indicated that the Gold Projects were cash flow positive but Swan to date has been unable to raise monies to allow the Swan Group to commercialise the Projects.
-
6.5 The Company, post divesting of the Sale Subsidiaries, will be able to seek new business opportunities that may provide better opportunities to earn a revenue steam.
Disadvantages
- 6.6 There is a risk that the Carnegie and Mt Ida Projects may eventually be commercially successful in the longer term and by divesting of these Projects the Swan shareholders may miss out on positive cash flows and profits. However to date losses have been incurred and Swan has insufficient funds to continue exploration and any possible development of the Projects.
SWA5683 – Swan Gold Sale of Subsidiaries November 2011 11
==> picture [157 x 16] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [95 x 12] intentionally omitted <==
Other Factors and Information
-
6.7 The Company as at 30 June 2011 has written down its loan receivables to $11,717,946 and the investments in the Sale Subsidiaries to $9,777,033 (total carrying value in the parent entity is $21,494,979). Post the Transaction (and shares being cancelled per resolution 2), the value of Swan would approximate $5,204,175 compared with the pre Transaction value of $17,233,000 using the preferred value by Agricola for the Tenements. However, Swan has virtually no cash, is being supported by DCM and would have a high chance of moving back into Administration if the Transaction or some other commercial recapitalisation proposal was not consummated. The Company has been trying for several years to recapitalise the Swan Group and other than the initial capitalisation in 2009 no commercial proposal has been forthcoming other than the proposal with DCM.
-
6.8 The divestment of the Swan Subsidiaries does not affect the financial viability of the Swan group other than incurring costs in relation to completion of the Transaction estimated at $50,000. The Company will no longer own the Carnegie and Mt Ida Gold Projects but be cashed up with $5,000,000 with no material debt.
7.
Conclusion as to Reasonableness
- 7.1 After taking into account the factors referred to in 6 above and elsewhere in this report, we are of the opinion that the proposals as outlined in resolution 1 may, on balance, be considered reasonable to the non-associated shareholders of Swan.
8.

VALUATION REPORT ON THE CARNEGIE AND MT IDA TENEMENTS BY AGRICOLA
SWA5683 – Swan Gold Sale of Subsidiaries November 2011 19
Malcolm Castle Agricola Mining Consultants Pty Ltd P.O. Box 473, South Perth, WA 6951 Phone: 08 9368 4923 Fax: 08 9368 4932 Mobile: 04 1234 7511 Email: [email protected] ABN: 84 274 218 871
23 November 2011
The Directors Stantons International Securities Level 1, 1 Havelock Street West Perth, WA, 6005
Dear Sirs,
Re: INDEPENDENT VALUATION OF THE MINERAL ASSETS of SWAN GOLD MINING LTD
at CARNEGIE and MT IDA PROJECTS In WESTERN AUSTRALIA
I have been commissioned by the Directors of Stantons International Securities (“Stantons” or the “Company”) to provide a Mineral Asset Valuation Report (“Report”) of the Carnegie and Mt Ida Projects in Western Australia.
This report serves to comment on the geological setting and exploration results on the properties and presents a technical and market valuation for the exploration assets based on the information in this Report.
The present status of the tenements/licenses listed in this report is based on information provided by the Company. The Report has been prepared on the assumption that the tenements are lawfully accessible for evaluation. Details in respect to the legal status and tenure of the tenements comprising the Project were reviewed from documents issued by the respective governments and included in the data supplied by the company. Independent evaluation of the tenements was undertaken by Austwide Mining Title Management Pty Ltd and a schedule setting out the tenements and their status is attached as Annexure A.
DECLARATIONS
Relevant codes and guidelines
This report has been prepared as a technical assessment and valuation in accordance with the Code for Technical Assessment and Valuation of Mineral and Petroleum Assets and Securities for Independent Expert Reports (the “VALMIN Code”) , which is binding upon Members of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (“AusIMM”) and the Australian Institute of Geoscientists (“AIG”), as well as the rules and guidelines issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (“ASIC”) and the ASX Limited (“ASX”) which pertain to Independent Expert Reports (Regulatory Guides RG111 and RG112).
Where mineral resources have been referred to in this report, the classifications are consistent with the ”Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (“JORC Code”), prepared by the Joint Ore Reserves Committee of the AusIMM, the AIG and the Minerals Council of Australia, effective December 2004.
Under the definition provided by the VALMIN Code, the properties are classified as ‘exploration areas’, which are inherently speculative in nature. The properties are considered to be sufficiently prospective, subject to varying degrees of risk, to warrant further exploration and development of their economic potential.
Sources of Information
The statements and opinion contained in this report are given in good faith and this review is based on information provided by the title holders, along with technical reports by consultants, previous tenements holders and other relevant published and unpublished data for the area. I have endeavoured, by making all reasonable enquiries, to confirm the authenticity, accuracy and completeness of the technical data upon which this report is based. A final draft of this report was provided to the Company, along with a written request to identify any material errors or omissions prior to lodgement.
In compiling this report, I did not carry out a site visit to any of the Company’s Project areas. Based on my professional knowledge and experience and the availability of extensive databases and technical reports made available by various Government Agencies, I consider that sufficient current information was available to allow an informed appraisal to be made without such a visit.
The independent technical report has been compiled based on information available up to and including the date of this report. Consent has been given for the distribution of this report in the form and context in which it appears. I have no reason to doubt the authenticity or substance of the information provided.

PROJECT REVIEW
CARNEGIE PROJECT
The Project, which includes the Riverina, Siberia and Lady Bountiful deposits, is situated approximately 120km north-west of Kalgoorlie. The Project area is connected to Kalgoorlie, a major regional centre, by the sealed Kalgoorlie-Menzies highway, with good quality gravel roads providing access throughout the Carnegie Project. The Riverina deposit is located 45 km north of the Davyhurst plant and is connected directly to Davyhurst by a gravel road suitable for road train operation. The Siberia project area is broadly about 40 km east of Davyhurst and 25 km west of the Goldfields Highway. The Lady Bountiful Project is located approximately 37 km north-west of the Kalgoorlie Township.
The Carnegie Project comprises operational and exploration prospects, including a mineral resource base at 30 June 2008 of 20.3 M tonnes at 2.3 g/t gold for 1.5M ounces and Exploration Tenements (excluding Miscellaneous Licences) with an area of 1,342 km[2] .
The Carnegie Project is located within the north to north-north-west striking Davyhurst-Mt Ida Greenstone Belt, a western branch of the Norseman-Wiluna Belt. The Project encompasses a group of varied gold deposits spread over an area between Lizard in the south, First Hit in the north, and the Siberia Mining Centre in the east.
The Project straddles the boundary between the Eastern Goldfields Province and Southern Cross Province and includes portions of two crustal scale faults; the Ida Fault and Zuleika Shear. The Ida Fault marks the boundary between the Barlee Terrane of the Southern Cross Province and the Kalgoorlie Terrane of the Eastern Goldfields Province. The Zuleika Shear separates the Coolgardie and Ora Banda Domains of the Kalgoorlie Terrane.
The area has hosted approximately 50 open pits and 4 medium sized but high grade underground mines including the Lady Bountiful, Lights of Israel, Callion, Glasson and Riverina underground mines.
MT IDA PROJECT
The Mt Ida Gold Project and associated operations and assets are located 200 kilometres north-west of Kalgoorlie-Boulder and 70 kilometres north-west of Menzies. Access from Kalgoorlie is via the Goldfields Highway to Menzies (130km) and via the Menzies to Sandstone Road, past Lake Ballard, and the Mt Ida road which are both all-weather gravel surface (100km). The Mt Ida Project tenements cover an area of 480 km2 of the prospective Ularring Greenstone Belt.
The Mt Ida Project area is located in the northern-most part of the Mt Ida (or Ularring) Greenstone Belt which is the western-most subdivision of the regionally extensive Norseman-Wiluna belt. The Ularring Greenstone Belt occupies an extensive sequence of mafic and ultramafic rocks with interbedded (volcanogenic) sediments and felsic to intermediate volcanics. The geology is structurally complex, consisting of cross cutting and regional shear zones, a regional anticline, intrusive porphyries and basal ultramafic contacts. The Ularring Greenstone Belt is represented by a narrow linear belt that extends from south of Davyhurst to Mt Alexander in the north; the belt
4
corresponds to the western most subdivision of the extensive north-northwest trending NorsemanWiluna Greenstone Belt and covers a strike extent of approximately 150km.
The Mt Ida Project comprises operational and exploration prospects, including a mineral resource base at 30 June 2008 of 259,000 tonnes at 15.36 g/t gold for 128,000 ounces and Exploration Tenements (excluding Miscellaneous Licences) with an area of 472 km[2] .
The Mt Ida Project area is considered to be prospective for gold and base metals. Known deposit styles include shear/vein hosted gold and base metal sulphides. Historically 300,000 ounces of gold have been mined from the various mines in the Copperfield/Mt Ida area. The recent focus has been on the development and exploitation of the Baldock lode (with current resources of 69,000 oz gold). Future exploration and exploitation of the Meteor, Whinnen, Meteor North, Baldock South and Timoni lodes was planned.

VALUATION METHODOLOGY
-
Contained metal is calculated from the deposit tonnes and grade in the three categories of the JORC code.
-
Contained gold is estimated at 1,497,000 ounces for Carnegie and 128,000 for Mt Ida.
-
The average gold price for October 2010 was US$1342 per ounce. The AUD:USD exchange rate was just below 1:1 and the gold price equates to approximately A$1350. This is the date of the Offer Document prepared for the sale of the Carnegie and Mt Ida assets is used in the valuation.
Contained Value = [contained gold]*[gold price]

- A discount factor is applied to the contained value to recognise the JORC category and allow for resourc e risk.
Resource Category Discounts Measured R e source 80 % Indicated Resource 70 % Inferred Res o urce 60 % Exploration T arget 50 %
- A further discount is considered appropriate to the base value for the project to recognise the poor m a rket conditions following the GFC, despite t he increasing gold price. It also recogn i ses the risk in lower grade projects for Carnegie and the difficulty inherent in underground mining for Mt Ida.
The Market Sentimen t factor chosen is 70% for Carnegie and 75% for Mt Ida.
- The base value for th e project is estimated by multiplying the con t ained value by the two discount factors.

----- End of picture text -----
The Average Acquisition Cost (AAC) for gold projects lies in the range of 2% to 4.5%. The data set does not differentiate between resource categories and it is implicit that this has been taken into account with risk related discounts. Information on sales internationally has shown a pattern for the AAC as shown in the following table.
| AAC Percentiles | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Percentile | 10% | 25% | 50% | 75% | 90% |
| AAC | 2.20% | 2.63% | 3.00% | 3.35% | 3.89% |
For the purpose of this valuation the Average Acquisition Cost for the lower, Preferred and higher value is selected at the 25[th] , 50[th] and 75[th] percentiles
- The Base Value is multiplied by AAC Percentiles to arrive at the estimated project value.
Market Value = [Base Value]*[AAC Percentile for Low, High and Preferred]
| Total Project Value | Carnegie | Mt Ida |
|---|---|---|
| Low | 24.18 | 2.21 |
| High | 30.85 | 2.82 |
| Preferred | 27.51 | 2.51 |
| % of contained value | 1.4% | 1.5% |
| $/ounce | 18.38 | 19.66 |
A further check on the valuation is provided by comparing the Market Value with the contained value. The Market Value represents 1.4% of the contained value for Carnegie ($18 per ounce) and 1.5% for Mt Ida ($20 per ounce).

VALUATION OF SURROUNDING EXPLORATION PROPERTIES
The valuation of surrounding exploration tenements applies to Exploration Licences and Prospecting Licences. Granted mining licences are considered to be fully valued by the dollar per ounce method described earlier.
BASE ACQUISITION COST
This represents the exploration cost for the current period of the tenements. The current Base Acquisition Cost (BAC) for exploration projects is considered to be the average expenditure for Exploration licences in tenements in Western Australia. Early stage exploration projects attract a BAC of $300 - $325 per square kilometre. Mining Leases attract a Base Acquisition Cost of $10,000 to $10,500 per square kilometre and Prospecting Licences attract $3,500 to $3,750.
A discount of 40% is applied to pending tenements if appropriate to recognise the uncertainty of the grant process. This does not apply to tenements which are granted. Details of the tenements held by Swan were supplied by that company and have not been independently audited. Equity in the tenements is assumed to be 100%.
Base Value = [Area][Grant Factor][Equity]*[Base Acquisition Cost]

PROSPECTIVITY ASSESSMENT FACTORS
12
A detailed assessment of the prospectivity of tenements was carried out. The geoscientific rating chosen for each element are included in the following table.
This includes a consideration of
-
Regional mineralization, old and current workings and the validity of conceptual models.
-
Local mineralization within the tenements and the application of conceptual models within the tenements.
-
Identified anomalies warranting follow up within the tenements.
-
The proportion of structural and lithological settings within the tenements and difficulty encountered by cover rocks and other factors.

MARKET VALUE
In arriving at a fair market value for a particular exploration tenement, I have considered the current market for exploration properties in Australia and overseas. It is considered appropriate to apply a market discount to the technical value of the exploration potential of its tenements.
An allowance has been made for inflation in exploration costs (reflected in an increase of BAC) over that period which are considered to be 50% higher now than in the 1990 – 2000 period. The current market value for gold projects is likely to be slightly depressed and a factor of 80% has been set for Carnegie and 90% for Mt Ida applied to the basic technical value.
Market Value = [Technical Value]*[Market Factor]

APPENDIX
MINERAL ASSETS VALUATION METHODOLOGY
FAIR MARKET VALUE OF MINERAL ASSETS
Mineral assets include, but are not limited to, mining and exploration tenements held or acquired in connection with the exploration, the development of, and the production from those tenements together with all plant, equipment and infrastructure owned or acquired for the development, extraction and processing of minerals in connection with those tenements.
| Mineral assets classification | Mineral assets classification |
|---|---|
| Exploration areas | Mineralization may or may not have been identified, but where a mineral resource has not been defined. |
| Advanced exploration areas | Mineral resources have been identified and their extent estimated (possibly incompletely). This includes properties at the early stage of assessment. |
| Pre-development projects | A positive development decision has not been made. This includes properties where a development decision has been negative, properties on care and maintenance and properties held on retention titles. |
| Development projects | Committed to production, but which, are not yet commissioned or not initially operating at design levels. |
| Operating Mines | Mineral properties, particularly mines and processing plants, which have been fully commissioned and are in production. |
The fair market value, of a mineral asset is the estimated amount of money or the cash equivalent or some other consideration for which the mineral asset should change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction. Each party is assumed to have acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.
The value of a mineral asset usually consists of two components,
-
The underlying or Technical Value which is an assessment of a mineral asset’s future net economic benefit under a set of appropriate assumptions, excluding any premium or discount for market, strategic or other considerations.
-
The Market Component, which is a premium relating to market, strategic or other considerations which, depending on circumstances at the time, can be either positive, negative or zero.
When the technical and market components of value are combined the resulting value is referred to as the market value. A consideration of country risk should also be taken into account for overseas projects.
26
The value of mineral assets is time and circumstance specific. The asset value and the market premium (or discount) changes, sometimes significantly, as overall market conditions, commodity prices, exchange rates, political and country risk change.
REGULATORY AUTHORITIES
Mineral asset valuations are governed by the VALMIN code and ASIC Practice Note 43 in Australia and by the CIMVAL code, NI43-101 and TSXV Appendix 3G in Canada
THE VALMIN CODE
The four main requirements of the VALMIN Code are
Transparency The report needs to explain how the valuation was done and the assumptions used in calculating the value. The objective is to provide sufficient information that other people can come up with the same answer.
Materiality This means the valuer has to ensure that all important data that could have a significant impact on the valuation is included in the report.
Competence The valuer must be competent at doing valuations. The person needs to be an expert in the particular exploration target being evaluated. Typically the person needs at least 5 years experience in that commodity.
Independence . The valuer must act in a professional manner and not favour the buyer or the seller. In other words the price must be set at a “fair market value”. To achieve independence, the valuer must not receive any special benefit from doing the study.
The decisions as to the valuation methodology or methodologies to be used and the content of the Report are solely the responsibility of the Expert or Specialist whose decisions must not be influenced by the Commissioning Entity. The Expert or Specialist must state the reasons for selecting each methodology used in the Report. Methods chosen must be rational and logical and be based upon reasonable grounds.
The Expert or Specialist should make use of valuation methods suitable to the Mineral or Petroleum Assets or Mineral or Petroleum Securities under consideration. Selection of the appropriate valuation method will depend on, inter alia:
(a) the purpose of the Valuation;
-
(b) the development status of the Mineral or Petroleum Assets;
-
(c) the amount and reliability of relevant information;
-
(d) the risks involved in the venture; and
-
(e) the relevant market conditions for commodities and/or shares.
27
The Expert or Specialist should choose, discuss and disclose the selected valuation method(s) appropriate to the Mineral or Petroleum Assets or Mineral or Petroleum Securities under consideration, stating the reasons why the particular valuation method(s) have been selected in relation to those factors set out in Paragraph 39 and to the adequacy of available data. It may also be desirable to discuss why a particular valuation method has not been used. The disclosure should give a sufficient account of the valuation method(s) used so that another Expert could understand the procedure used and assess the Valuation. Should more than one valuation method be used and different valuations result, the Expert or Specialist should comment on the reason(s) for selecting the Value adopted.
Australian Securities and Investment Commission – Regulatory Guides RG111 and RG112
It is not the ASIC’s role or intention to limit the expert’s exercise of skill and judgment in selecting the most appropriate method or methods of valuation. However, it is appropriate for the expert to consider:
-
(a) the discounted cash flow method;
-
(b) the amount which an alternative acquirer might be willing to offer if all the securities in the target company were available for purchase;
The ASIC does not suggest that this list is exhaustive or that the expert should use all of the methods of valuation listed above. The expert should justify the choices of valuation method and give a sufficient account of the method used to enable another expert to replicate the procedure and assess the valuation. It may be appropriate for the expert to compare the figures derived by more than one method and to comment on any differences.
The complex valuations in an expert’s report necessarily contain significant uncertainties. Because of this an expert who gives a single point value will usually be implying spurious accuracy to his or her valuation. An expert should, however, give as narrow a range of values as possible. An expert report becomes meaningless if the range of values is too wide. An expert should indicate the most probable point within the range of values if it is feasible to do so.
The expert should carry out sufficient enquiries or examinations to establish reasonable grounds for believing that any profit forecasts, cash flow forecasts and unaudited profit figures that are used in the expert’s report, and have been prepared on a reasonable basis. If there are material variations in method or presentation the expert should adjust for or comment on them in the report.
The expert should discuss the implications to his or her valuation if:
-
(a) the current market value of the subject of the report is likely to change because of market volatility (for example, boom or depression); or
-
(b) the current market value differs materially from that derived by the chosen method.
VALUATION METHODOLOGY FOR EXPLORATION TENEMENTS
28
Valuation of exploration properties is exceptionally subjective. If an economic resource is subsequently identified then a new valuation will be dramatically higher, or alternatively if expenditure of further exploration dollars is unsuccessful then it is likely to decrease the value of the Tenements. There are a number of generally accepted procedures for establishing the value of exploration properties and, where relevant, the use of more than one such method to enable a balanced analysis and a check on the result has been undertaken. The value will always be presented as a range with the preferred value identified. The preferred value need not be the median value, and will be determined by the Independent Expert based on his experience.
The Independent Expert, when determining a value for a mineral asset, must assess a range of technical issues prior to selection of a valuation methodology. Often this will require seeking advice from a specialist in specific areas. The key issues are:
-
geological setting and style of mineralization
-
level of knowledge of the geometry of mineralization in the district
-
mining history, including mining methods
-
location and accessibility of infrastructure
-
milling and metallurgical characteristics of the mineralization
-
results of exploration including geological mapping, costeaning and drilling of interpretation of geochemical anomalies
-
parameters used to identify geophysical and remote sensing data anomalies
-
location and style of mineralization identified on adjacent properties
-
appropriate geological models
In addition to these technical issues the Independent Expert needs to make a judgement about the market demand for the type of property, commodity markets, financial markets and stock markets. The technical value of a property should not be adjusted by a “market factor” unless there is a marked discrepancy between the technical value and the market value. When this is done the factor should be clearly identified.
Where there are identified reserves it is appropriate to use financial analysis methods to estimate the net present value (NPV) of the properties. This technique has deficiencies which include assessment of only a very narrow area of risk, namely the time value of money given the real discount rate, and the underlying assumption that a static approach is applicable to investment decision making, which is clearly not the case.
When assessing value of exploration properties with no identified mineral resources or only inferred resources it is inappropriate to prepare any form of financial analysis to determine the net present value. The valuation of exploration tenements or licences, particularly those without identified resources, is highly subjective and a number of methods are appropriate to give a guide as discussed below.
29
All of these valuation methods are relatively independent of the location of the mineral property. Consequently the valuer will make allowance for access to infrastructure etc when choosing a preferred value. It is observed that the Prospectivity Exploration Multiplier (PEM) is heavily based on the expenditure, while the Kilburn Geoscience Rating (Kilburn) is more heavily based on opinions of the prospectivity hence tenements can have marked variation in value between the methods. If the Kilburn assessment is high and the PEM is low it indicates effective well focussed exploration, if the Kilburn is low and the PEM high it suggests that the tenement is considered to have lower prospectivity.
PROSPECTIVITY ENHANCEMENT MULTIPLIER (PEM) OR MULTIPLE OF EXPLORATION EXPENDITURE (MEE)
Past expenditure on a tenement and/or future committed exploration expenditure can establish a base value from which the effectiveness of exploration can be assessed. Where exploration has produced documented results a PEM can be derived which takes into account the valuer’s judgment of the prospectivity of the tenement and the value of the database. Future committed exploration expenditure is discounted to 60% by some valuers to reflect the uncertainty of results and the possible variations in exploration programmes caused by future undefined events. Expenditure estimates for tenements under application are often discounted to 60% of the estimated value by some valuers to reflect uncertainty in the future granting of the tenement. The PEM Factors are defined in the following table.
PEM Factors Used in this valuation method
| PEM Range | Criteria |
|---|---|
| 0.2 – 0.5 | Exploration (past and present) has downgraded the tenement prospectivity, no mineralization identified |
| 0.5 – 1.0 | Exploration potential has been maintained (rather than enhanced) by past and present activity from regional mapping |
| 1.0 – 1.3 | Exploration has maintained, or slightly enhanced (but not downgraded) the prospectivity |
| 1.3 – 1.5 | Exploration has considerably increased the prospectivity (geological mapping, geochemical or geophysical) |
| 1.5 – 2.0 | Scout Drilling has identified interesting intersections of mineralization |
| 2.0 – 2.5 | Detailed Drilling has defined targets with potential economic interest. |
| 2.5 – 3.0 | A resource has been defined at Inferred Resource Status, no feasibility study has been completed |
| 3.0 – 4.0 | Indicated Resources have been identified that are likely to form the basis of a prefeasibility study |
| 4.0 – 5.0 | Indicated and Measured Resources have been identified and economic parameters are available for assessment. |

KILBURN GEOSCIENCE RATING METHOD
Valuation is based on a calculation in which the geological prospectivity, commodity markets, financial markets, stock markets and mineral property markets are assessed independently. The Kilburn method is essentially a technique to define a value based on geological prospectivity. The method appraises a variety of mineral property characteristics:
-
location with respect to any off-property mineral occurrence of value, or favourable geological, geochemical or geophysical anomalies;
-
location and nature of any mineralization, geochemical, geological or geophysical anomaly within the property and the tenor of any mineralization known to exist on the property being valued;
-
number and relative position of anomalies on the property being valued;
-
geological models appropriate to the property being valued.
The Kilburn Method systematically assesses and grades these four key technical attributes of a tenement to arrive at a series of multiplier factors. The Basic Acquisition Cost (BAC) is the important input to the Kilburn Method and it is calculated by summing the application fees, annual rent, work required to facilitate granting (e.g. native title, environment etc) and statutory expenditure for a period of 12 months. This has been estimated at $525 to $575 per square kilometre for Exploration Licences in Western Australia for the current period. This is considered to have increased by 50% over costs in the 1990 – 2000 period. Equity and grant status are also taken into account. Each factor then multiplied serially to the BAC to establish the overall technical value of each mineral property.
| Tenement Type | Expenditure per square kilometre (BAC) in 2010 |
|---|---|
| Exploration License and equivalents | $525to$575 |
| ProspectingLicense and equivalents | $4,500to$4,700 |
| MiningLease and equivalents | $14,250to$14,750 |
The multipliers or ratings and the criteria for rating selection across these 6 factors are summarised in the following table.

VALUATION OF RESOURCES BY COMPARABLE TRANSACTIONS
If a property in the recent past was the subject of an arms-length transaction, for either cash or shares (i.e. from a company whose principal asset was the mineral property) then this forms the most realistic starting point, provided that the deal is still relevant in today’s market. Complicating matters is the knowledge that properties rarely change hands for cash, except for liquidation purposes, estate sales, or as raw exploration property when sold by an individual prospector, or entrepreneur.
Any underlying royalty or net profits interests or rights held by the original vendor of the claims should be deducted from the resultant property value before determination of the company’s interest. Also, reductions in value should be made where environmental, legal or political sensitivities could seriously retard the development of exploration properties.
It should be noted again that exploration is cyclical, and in periods of low metal prices there is often no market, or a market at very low prices, for ordinary exploration acreage (inventory property) unless it is combined with a significant mineral deposit, or with other incentives.
Truly Comparable Transactions are rare for early stage properties without defined drill targets. This is natural in a recession, as companies focus on brownfields exploration. Inflated prices paid for property in fashionable areas should not be discounted because they reflect the true market value of a property at the transaction date. If however, the market sentiment is not so buoyant then adjustments must be made.
When only a resource or defined body of mineralisation has been outlined and its economic viability has still to be established (i.e. there is no ore reserve) then a Comparable Transactions approach is usually applied, often stated as a percent of metal value.
33
With gold projects the method requires allocating a dollar value to resource ounces of gold in the ground. This may also apply to well established zones of mineralisation which have not formally been categorised under the JORC code. An additional risk weighting may be appropriate in these circumstances.
The dollar value must take into account a number of aspects of the resources including:
-
The confidence in the resource estimation (the JORC Category).
-
The quality of the resource (grade and recovery characteristics)
-
Possible extensions of the resource in adjacent areas
-
Exploration potential for other mineralisation within the tenements
-
Presence and condition of a treatment plant within the project
-
Proximity of toll treatment facilities, infrastructure, development and capital expenditure aspects
A similar approach can be taken with other metals including uranium or base metals sold on the spot market and benchmarks are similar to gold properties. Value is estimated as a percentage of contained value once appropriate discounts for uncertainty relating to resource categorisation are taken into account.
The AAC for gold projects lies in the range of 2% to 5%. The data set does not differentiate between resource categories and it is implicit that this has been taken into account with risk related discounts. Information on sales internationally has shown a pattern for ‘Apparent Acquisition Cost’ (AAC) as shown in the following table.
