Important Notices
This Prospectus has been issued by Woomera Mining Limited (ACN 073 155 781) (ASX:WML) (WML, Woomera Mining or the Company) and was today lodged with ASIC and ASX and is dated 20 April 2021. Neither ASIC nor ASX takes any responsibility for the contents of this Prospectus or the merits of the investment to which this Prospectus relates.
Application for Quotation of the New Securities will be made to ASX. The fact that ASX may quote the New Securities is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the investment to which this Prospectus relates.
No New Securities will be allotted or issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.
Woomera Mining is an ASX listed company whose securities are granted official Quotation by ASX. In preparing this Prospectus, regard has been had to the fact that Woomera Mining is a disclosing entity for the purpose of the Corporations Act and that certain matters may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom investors may consult.
Before deciding whether to accept the Offer, you should read and understand the entire Prospectus and, in particular, you should consider the risk factors that could affect Woomera Mining's performance. You should carefully consider these factors in light of your personal circumstances (including financial and taxation issues) and seek advice from your professional adviser before deciding to invest. Investing in Woomera Mining involves risks. Refer to the 'Risk Factors' in Section 7 for a discussion of certain risk factors that you should consider before deciding to accept the Offer.
No person is authorised to give any information or to make any representation in connection with this Prospectus which is not contained in the Prospectus. Any information or representation not so contained may not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with this Prospectus.
Nature of this Prospectus
The New Securities that will be issued under this Prospectus are either continuously quoted securities or options to acquire continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act). This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus to which the special content rules under section 713 of the Corporations Act apply. That provision allows for the issue of a more concise prospectus in relation to an offer of securities in a class that has been continuously quoted by ASX in the three (3) months prior to the date of the prospectus. In general terms transaction specific prospectuses are only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of New Securities on the Company and the rights attaching to the New Securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.
This Prospectus contains information only to the extent to which it is reasonable for investors and their professional advisers to expect to find the information in it. It does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offer.
This Prospectus provides general information to assist you with your own evaluation of the Company's exploration assets. This Prospectus is not, and is not intended to be, advice on legal, financial, taxation or investment matters nor is it intended to be financial product advice from the Company or any of its directors, employees, agents or advisers.
The information contained in this Prospectus has been prepared by the Company. The mineral tenements of the Company as described in this Prospectus are at various stages of exploration, and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are high risk undertakings. There can be no assurance that exploration of the Company's tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Refer to the 'Risk Factors' in Section 7 for more detail.
Application of ASIC Class Order on Share Purchase Plans
In certain circumstances, a listed company may undertake a share purchase plan in accordance with ASIC Corporations (Share and Interest Purchase Plans) Instrument 2019/547 (ASIC Instrument). The ASIC Instrument allows a body which is admitted to the official list of the ASX not to comply with Part 6D.2 or 6D.3 of the Act (other than sections 736 and 738) for an offer of shares for issue under a purchase plan, allowing the share purchase plan to be conducted without the use of a prospectus subject to compliance with the conditions of the ASIC Instrument.
The Company is unable to rely on the ASIC Instrument because the SPP Options proposed to be issued under the SPP Offer are a new class of securities not quoted on the ASX and are not covered by the disclosure and advertising relief that is the subject of the ASIC Instrument. Accordingly, the Company is undertaking the SPP Offer under this Prospectus.
Conditional Offers
The issue of New Shares and New Options under the Tranche 2 Placement and New Options under the SPP Offer is subject to Shareholder approval being obtained at the General Meeting. No New Shares or New Options will be issued pursuant to the Tranche 2 Placement or the SPP Offer until such time as the required Shareholder approval has been obtained.
In the event the Shareholders do not approve the resolutions at the General Meeting, the Company will not issue any New Shares or New Options under the Tranche 2 Placement or SPP Offer.
Exposure Period
No exposure period applies to the New Shares offered under this Prospectus due to the relief granted by ASIC Corporations (Exposure Period) Instrument 2016/74, as the Shares offered are in a class of securities that are quoted on the ASX.
Forward-looking statements
This Prospectus includes or may include forward-looking statements that have been based on current expectations about future acts, events and circumstances. These forward-looking statements are, however, subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause those acts, events and circumstances to differ materially from the expectations described in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things, commercial and other risks associated with the meeting of objectives and other investment considerations, as well as other matters not yet known to the Company or not currently considered material by the Company. Forward-looking statements include those containing such words as 'may', 'could', 'believes', 'estimates', 'targets', 'expects', 'intends', 'anticipates' and other similar words that involve risks and uncertainties. The statements reflect views
held only at the date of this Prospectus. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions the forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus might not occur. Investors are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on these statements.

1. Overview of the Company
1.1 Woomera Mining Limited
Woomera Mining Limited (Woomera, WML or the Company) is a South Australian based ASX listed exploration company. Under new management it has now opened a technical office in West Perth, Western Australia to better service its portfolio of precious metal (gold + PGE) and base metal (Cu + Ni) projects in Western Australia.
Woomera's flagship project is its 80% owned Mt Venn Gold + PGE/Ni-Cu Joint Venture (Mt Venn Project) in Western Australia. The Mt Venn Project (see Figure 1) encompassing over 366km2 of granted tenure within a highly prospective, underexplored greenstone belt located in a world class gold and nickel province.
Elsewhere, the Company retains key tenements in the South Australian Gawler Craton and the Musgrave Province that fit with its new precious metal and base metal commodity focus while it undertakes a strategic review of its lithium project portfolio located throughout Western Australia.
The 100% owned Labyrinth Project in the Gawler Craton is prospective for Olympic Dam (IOCG) Cu-Au deposits. Currently deeper drilling into a 1.0km x 0.5km coincident gravity/magnetic anomaly is planned. Heritage clearance negotiations are continuing and a funding partner will be sought once access is secured.
The 100% owned Musgrave Project in South Australia covers over 2000km2 of poorly explored intrusive mafic/ultramafic sills prospective for magmatic Ni-Cu sulphides similar to Oz Minerals' West Musgrave Project. Oz Minerals report Ore Reserves of 253Mt at 0.32% Ni + 0.35% Cu for the Nebo-Babel deposits(1) within its West Musgrave Project. Woomera is currently seeking South Australian Government AEI funding and/or a farm-in/JV partner to advance drilling over two defined magnetic anomalies within its Musgrave Project.

Figure 1. Mt Venn project location within the Western Australian NE Goldfields
1 See OZ Minerals' Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve Statement ASX Release for the West Musgrave Project – Nebo-Babel Deposits dated 9 December 2020
1.2 Mt Venn Gold Project
The Company completed the acquisition of its 80% interest in the Mt Venn Project from Cazaly Resources (ASX: CAZ) in September 2019.
The Mt Venn Project is located 125km northeast of Laverton in Western Australia and 40km west of the 7Moz Yamarna Gold Camp(2) , including the Gruyere Gold Mine owned by Gold Fields of South Africa and Gold Road Resources (ASX: GOR). The Mt Venn Project represents a consolidated, highly prospective, yet largely under-explored land package comprising over 366km2 of granted tenure and over 50km strike in a world class gold and nickel province.
The large dominant land position has enabled Woomera to adopt a systematic and methodical approach to its exploration by combining all historical exploration data while creating new lithostructural interpretations to define a pipeline of gold exploration targets worthy of further exploration drilling.
Immediate drill ready gold targets are now defined at Three Bears, while a suite of untested gold in soil anomalies throughout the 50km strike of the project are to be field validated, mapped and prioritised for drill testing during FY2022 (see Figure 2).

Figure 2: Anomalous soil targets throughout the Mt Venn Project and the limited extend of drilling over the Three Bears Prospect
2 See Gold Road's December 2020, Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve Statement ASX Release dated 16 February 2021
1.3 Three Bears Gold Prospect
Woomera has identified a 7km long anomalous gold trend at the Three Bears Prospect where historical shallow Aircore drilling intersections up to 18m at 0.3 g/t Au(3) to end of hole are yet to be followed up. Predicted shallow northerly plunging shoots remain untested below limited historical intersections including 19m at 1.0 g/t Au(3) . Woomera is proposing to drill an aggregate 8,500m of RC drilling into the southern 4km strike of the Three Bears Prospect to test for significant, deeper, economic gold mineralisation (Figure 3).

Figure 3: Contoured gold anomalism over Three Bears Prospect with proposed drilling highlighted
Woomera also plans to explore for mineralised repeats located within the footwall of the Three Bears lodes, on or near the granite-greenstone contact which is predicted to lie 500m to the west. The prospective granite-greenstone contact is yet to be explored despite significant shallow laterite mineralisation (up to 4m at 1.0 g/t Au)(3) being recorded in the area (Figure 4). Approximately 2,700m of Aircore drilling is envisaged.

1.4 Mt Venn PGE & Ni-Cu Project – (80% WML: 20% CAZ)
In the northern sector of the Mt Venn Project Woomera has outlined three anomalous PGE/Ni-Cu mafic sills, collectively referred to as the Mt Cumming Sill Complex. Individual sills including Mt Warren measure 5km x 2km across (Figure 5). The intrusive sill complex is known to be fertile based upon adjacent semi-massive base metal intersections up to 21m at 0.63% Cu & 0.2% Ni(4) from Winchester immediately to the west and 48m at 0.8% Cu & 0.2% Ni(5) reported from Mt Venn (to the south). Within the sill complex six priority untested electromagnetic anomalies (EM) that are supported by significant plus 9ppb Pt in soils (up to 27ppb Pt)(6) and highly anomalous rock chips up to 3.2% Cu and 8.4 g/t Au(7) are proposed for further exploration. Ground EM is planned to refine the depth to conductive targets of the EM anomalies before following up with deeper RC and diamond drilling in 1HFY2022. Approximately 8 to 10 holes for up to 4,000m are envisaged as a first pass test.

Notes:
- (1) The Placement as announced on 12 April 2021 raised \$2.5 million through the issue of 147,058,814 fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of \$0.017 per share (assuming shareholder approval is obtained for the Tranche 2 Placement).
- (2) In the event that the maximum number of New Shares is issued under the Offers, the Company's cash and issued capital balances will increase by approximately \$2,467,500.
- (3) The Company will also pay the expenses of the Placement and the SPP of approximately \$245,000.
- (4) The Pro Forma Balance Sheet does not reflect the issue or exercise of any of the New Options, and the post-Placement and SPP position is as at immediately following completion of the Offers.
- (5) The values in respect of the Placement and the SPP assumes no further Shares or convertible securities are issued prior to the Record Date, and that the Placement and Offers are fully subscribed.
3.6 Effect of the Offers on the control of the Company
Subject to the Company obtaining Shareholder approval for the Tranche 2 Placement, resulting in changes to each Eligible Shareholders' shareholding following the Record Date:
- (a) if all Eligible Shareholders take up their full Entitlement under the SPP Offer, then each Eligible Shareholder's percentage ownership interest (and voting power) in the Company will remain the same and there will be no effect on the control of Woomera Mining; and
- (b) if an Eligible Shareholder does not take up all of their Entitlement under the SPP Offer, its percentage ownership interest (and voting power) in Woomera Mining will be diluted.
The proportional ownership (and voting power) of Ineligible Shareholders will be diluted because such Shareholders are not entitled to take up New Shares under the SPP Offer.
As the Company does not propose to apply to ASIC for approval of the appointment of a nominee for the purposes of section 615 of the Corporations Act, no person will be permitted to acquire New Shares under the Offers to the extent that such acquisition results in that person holding a relevant interest exceeding 20% of the issued share capital of the Company on a post issue basis.
The current substantial shareholders of Woomera Mining as at the date of this Prospectus, according to substantial holding notices lodged with the Company, are as follows:
| Substantial Shareholder | No. of Shares | % of current issued Share Capital |
|---|---|---|
| Davan Nominees Pty Ltd | 33,411,548 | 9.82% |
| Adelaide Equity Partners Ltd | 24,614,441 | 7.24% |
Examples of how the dilution resulting from the SPP Offer may impact Shareholders is set out in the table below:*
| Holder | Holding as at date of Prospectus |
% as at date of Prospectus |
% post Offers if SPP Offer not taken up |
% post Offers if SPP Offer taken up |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Davan Nominees Pty Ltd |
33,411,548 | 9.82% | 6.69% | 7.04% |
| Adelaide Equity Partners Ltd |
24,614,441 | 7.24% | 4.93% | 5.28% |
* The dilutionary effect shown in the table is the maximum percentage on the assumption of full participation in the SPP Offer.
The above table assumes that the Tranche 2 Placement receives Shareholder approval at the General Meeting, and the dilutionary effect of the SPP is detailed on the basis of the resulting total capital of the Company. For information regarding the effect on the capital of the Company and dilution of Shareholders where the Tranche 2 Placement does not receive Shareholder approval, see Section 3.4.

5.3 Dividends
Subject to the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules, and any rights or restrictions attached to a class of shares, the Company may pay dividends as the Directors authorise.
5.4 Meetings and notices

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with the Corporations Act.
5.5 Winding up

5.6 Transfer of shares
Subject to the Company's Constitution, the Corporations Act and any other laws and ASX Settlement Operating Rules and ASX Listing Rules, Shares are freely transferable.
5.7 Future increases in Capital

5.8 Variation of rights
Under the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the approval of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders, vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares. If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares unless the terms of issue of the Shares of a class state otherwise, the rights attaching to any class may be varied or abrogated with the approval of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders, together with the consent in writing of the holders of three quarters of the issued shares of that class, or a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.
6. Rights and Liabilities Attaching to New Options
The New Options entitle the Optionholder to subscribe for Shares on the following terms and conditions:
6.1 Entitlement
Each New Option gives the Optionholder the right to subscribe for one Share. To obtain the right afforded by each Option, the Optionholder must exercise the relevant Options in accordance with the terms and conditions attaching to the Options. Subject to variation in the share capital of the Company, the amount payable by the Optionholder on the exercise of each New Option shall be \$0.035 (Exercise Price).
6.2 Exercise
The Options will expire on 31 May 2024 (Option Expiry Date), unless exercised earlier pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Options. Any Option not exercised before the Option Expiry Date will automatically lapse on the Option Expiry Date.
The Options shall be exercisable at any time on or prior to the Option Expiry Date by the Optionholder providing a notice in writing to the Company and payment of the Exercise Price in cleared funds (Exercise Notice). Within 15 Business Days of receipt of the Exercise Notice, the Company will:
(a) allot and issue such number of Shares in the Company as required by the terms and conditions with reference to the number of Options specified in the Exercise Notice and for which cleared funds have been received by the Company; and
(b) if required, provide the ASX with a notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act or, if the Company is unable to issue such a notice or such notice is not effective, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all things necessary to ensure that an offer for sale of Shares does not require disclosure to investors pursuant to section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act.
6.3 Rank equally
Shares issued on the exercise of the Options will rank equally with the Shares on issue at the time of the exercise. If the Company is admitted to the official list of the ASX on the date of the exercise of the Options, application will be made by the Company to the ASX for official Quotation of the Shares that result from the exercise of the relevant Options.
6.4 Rights attaching to Options
If at any time the issued capital of the Company is reconstructed, the number of Options and the Exercise Price will be adjusted accordingly, in a manner that the auditors of the Company advise is fair and reasonable in their opinion, and in all cases in accordance with the provisions of the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act. Other than for such an adjustment, an Option does not confer the right to a change in Exercise Price or a change in the number of underlying securities over which the Option is capable of exercise.
There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Options, and Optionholders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to shareholders by virtue of the Options. The Company will notify all Optionholders that hold Options capable of exercise prior to the relevant qualifying date for the new issue of capital no less than 10 business days prior to the closing date of that offer, so as to enable those Optionholders to exercise some or all of their Options such that they may then participate in the relevant issue of capital.
6.5 Quotation of the Options
The Company will apply to ASX for Quotation of the Options. Subject to the Quotation requirements being met, the Options will be quoted.
6.6 Compliance with Listing Rules
If, and to the extent, any of the preceding terms and conditions in respect of the Options are inconsistent with the Listing Rules, the Listing Rules will prevail in all respects to the extent of the inconsistency.
7. Risk Factors
7.1 Introduction
An investment in the Company carries risks, including those broader risks which affect the mining industry and those more general risks associated with investing in the share market.
This section identifies some of the major risks associated with an investment in the Company. Intending Applicants should consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, before any decision is made to subscribe for Shares.
There are numerous risks which could materially and adversely affect the financial and operating performance of the Company, which in turn could impact the value of the Shares. The Directors and management have implemented internal controls and processes to mitigate some of these risks. There are however risks over which the Company, the Directors and management will be unable to exert significant influence.
Any potential investor should be aware that subscribing for Shares involves various risks. The Shares to be issued pursuant to the Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital or the market value of those Shares.
An investment in Shares of the Company should therefore be considered speculative. The following risk factors in this Section 7 are not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed. In addition, this section has been prepared without taking into account Applicants' individual financial objectives, financial situation and particular needs. Applicants should seek professional investment advice if they have any queries in relation to making an investment in the Company.
7.2 Specific risks
(a) Exploration and Development
The business of exploration, project development and mining contains risks by its very nature. To prosper, an exploration development and mining company needs to have successful exploration activities and delineation of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, it must be competent in the design and construction of efficient production/processing facilities, and must be competent in its operations and managerial performance and must be proficient in the marketing of product.
There can be no assurance that funds spent on exploration will result in the discovery of a Mineral Resource, and even if an apparently viable deposit or Mineral Resource is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be viably converted to an Ore Reserve to be commercially exploited.
(b) Operations
The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors including failures in internal controls and financial fraud. To the extent that such matters may be within the control of the Company, the risks will be addressed through management and supervision controls.
The exploration programs of the Company and project development and mining operations may be affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These may include adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, plant and equipment, and events involving fire or explosions and the occurrence of other incidents beyond the control of the Company.
(c) Environmental
The mineral exploration sector operates under Australian Federal and State environmental laws. The Company's operations may require it to use hazardous materials and produce hazardous waste which may be alleged to have an adverse impact on the environment or cause exposure to hazardous materials. Despite efforts on the part of the Company to conduct its activities in an environmentally responsible manner and in accordance with all applicable laws, the Company may be subject to litigation as a consequence. This may extend to being the subject of investigation by environmental authorities and incurring clean up obligations. This exposure could delay the timetable of a project and may subject the Company to restrictions and substantial penalties, including fines, damages, clean-up costs and other penalties.
(d) Mineralisation
Mining exploration operations are high risk. Each ore body is unique and the nature of mineralisation, the occurrence and grade of any ore, and its behaviour during mining, cannot be wholly predicted. Estimates of a mineral deposit are not precise calculations, but are based on interpretations on ore continuity from a drilling pattern believed to be adequate by the supervising Competent Geologists to predict the continuity of mineralisation.
(e) Tenements
The Company's interest in tenements and tenement applications situated in South Australia and Western Australia are governed by legislation and are evidenced by the granting of leases and licences by the relevant States.
The tenements and tenement applications will be subject to the Mining Act 1971 (SA) (in the case of the South Australian tenements) and the Mining Act 1978 (WA) (in the case of the Western Australian tenements). The Company will have an obligation to meet conditions that apply to the tenements under the above legislation, including the payment of rent and prescribed annual expenditure commitments.
Despite the Company's intention to be in full compliance with all obligations applicable to the tenements, there can be no guarantee that tenements that are subject to renewal will be renewed or that expenditure commitments and other conditions that apply to the tenements, will be satisfied.
Renewal conditions may be more onerous by requiring for example increased expenditure and work commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the tenements.
(f) Approvals
The Company is reliant on environmental and other approvals in South Australia and Western Australia to enable it to proceed with the exploration and any development of the Company's tenements. There is no guarantee that the required approvals will be granted and failure by the Company to obtain the relevant approvals, or any delay in the award or transfer of the approvals, may materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to proceed with the proposed exploration and development operations.
(g) Access
There is a substantial level of regulation and restriction on the ability of exploration and mining companies to have access to land in Australia.
Negotiations with both native title holders and landowners/occupiers are generally required before gaining access to land for exploration and mining activities. Further delays in granting access by the native title holders may also occur due to COVID-19 (refer to Section 7.2(r) for more detail). Inability or delays in gaining access may adversely impact on the Company's activities.
The Company may need to enter into compensation and access agreements before gaining access to land.
(h) Native Title
Many of the areas the subject of the Company's tenements or tenement applications are subject in whole or in part to native title determinations, or claims made by native title parties and may contains aboriginal heritage sites. The ability of the Company to undertake exploration or development operations on that tenement may be delayed or prohibited in the event that applicable consents cannot be obtained from the relevant native title parties or aboriginal groups.
(i) Approvals to Develop Mineral Deposits
If the Company discovers Ore Reserve that it then intends to develop, it will require various approvals, licences and permits before it will be able to mine the deposit. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be able to obtain all required approvals, licences and permits promptly or at all. To the extent that required authorisations are not obtained or are delayed, the Company's operational and financial performance may be materially adversely affected.
(j) Failure of Studies
Subject to the results of exploration and testing programs to be carried out, the Company may progressively undertake a number of studies in respect of a project, including scoping. These studies will be undertaken within parameters designed to determine the economic feasibility of the project. Even if a study confirms the economic viability of a project, there can be no guarantee that the project will be successfully brought into production as assumed or within the estimated parameters in the feasibility study once production commences.
(k) Additional Expenditure
From time to time there may be a need to undertake expenditure that has not been taken into account in this Prospectus. Although the Company is not presently aware of any additional expenditure requirements, if such expenditure is subsequently incurred, this may have an adverse effect of the current expenditure proposals of the Company and negatively impact the business plan of the Company.
(l) Additional Funding
Although the funds to be raised under the Offers are considered sufficient to meet the immediate objectives of the Company (see the Use of Funds Table in Section 3.1), additional funding may be required by the Company in the event that costs exceed estimates or revenues do not match expectations. For example, additional funding may be required in order to undertake further exploration operations or to acquire complementary assets.
Accordingly, the Company may need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. Any additional funding may be dilutive to Shareholders, may be undertaken at lower prices than the Offer Price or may involve restrictive covenants that limit the Company's operations.
There can be no assurance that such funding will be available on satisfactory terms or at all and any inability to obtain sufficient funding for the Company's activities and current or future projects may result in the delay or cancellation of those activities or projects.
The Company's ability to raise capital may also be affected by COVID-19 (refer to Section 7.2(r) for more detail).
(m) Option Exercise Risk
There is a risk that the prevailing market price for the Shares in the Company at the time of the exercise of the New Options may be less than the Exercise Price (refer to Section 6 for more detail), which shall have an effect on the value of the New Options.
The exercise of a New Option, and the allotment and issue of the Share to which that Option relates, may also have taxation consequences depending on each Shareholder's particular circumstances. Shareholders should seek their own taxation advice before exercising a New Option.
(n) Competition
The mining exploration and development sectors are subject to domestic and global competition. Although the Company will exercise reasonable due diligence in its business decision making and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, which actions may positively or negatively affect the operating and financial performance of the Company.
(o) Commodity Price and Exchange Rate
The price for minerals will depend on available markets.
To the extent the Company is involved in mineral production the revenue derived through the sale of commodities may expose the potential income of the Company to commodity price and exchange rate risks. The prices of minerals fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company, such as industrial

and retail supply and demand, exchange rates, inflation rates, changes in global economies, confidence in the global monetary system, forward sales of minerals by producers and speculators as well as other global or regional political, social or economic events, and currently the effects of COVID-19 (refer to Section 7.2(r) for more detail). Future serious price declines in the market values of minerals could cause the development of, and eventually the commercial production from, the Company's tenements to be rendered uneconomic. Depending on the prices of commodities, the Company could be forced to discontinue production or development and may lose its interest in some of its tenements. There is no assurance that a profitable market of minerals will exist from time to time.
Furthermore, the international price of various commodities is typically denominated in United States dollars, whereas the income and expenditure of the Company are and will be taken into account in Australian dollars, thereby exposing the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international currency markets.
In addition to adversely affecting the Company and its financial condition, declining commodity prices can impact operations by requiring a reassessment of the feasibility of a particular project. Such a reassessment may be the result of a management decision or may be required under financing arrangements related to a particular project. Even if a project is ultimately determined to be economically viable, the need to conduct such a reassessment may cause substantial delays or may interrupt operations until the reassessment can be completed.
(p) Acquisitions
From time to time the Company may undertake acquisitions of additional interests in mining tenements and other assets. The successful implementation of such acquisitions will depend on a range of factors including funding arrangements, geographical issues, staff continuity and compatibility of equipment or infrastructure. If acquisitions are not successfully integrated within the Company's operations, the financial performance of the Company could be adversely affected. At the time of any of such acquisitions the Company may decide that it is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders to fund the acquisition through the issue of further Shares. If this were to occur, it may result in the dilution of the ownership interests of Shareholders.
(q) Changes in Laws and Government Policy
The availability of rights to explore and mine, as well as industry profitability generally, can be adversely affected by changes in government policy and laws. The impact of actions by government may affect the Company's activities, including its access to land and infrastructure, compliance with environmental regulations, and exposure to taxation and royalties.
Changing attitudes to environmental land care, cultural heritage and indigenous land rights issues, together with the nature of the political process, provide the possibility of future policy changes. There is a risk that such changes may affect the Company's exploration plans or its rights and/ or obligations with respect to its tenements.
(r) COVID-19
The strain of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (and associated infectious disease referred to as COVID-19) has been declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organisation.
COVID-19 is having a widespread and significant effect on global markets, business operation and is materially affecting the ability of many companies to conduct their planned or ongoing activities. The pandemic may delay, disrupt or prevent the Company from undertaking certain projects.
The effect of COVID-19 may also delay, disrupt or prevent the Company's business partners from providing the Company with necessary goods or services, or accessing the Company's goods or services, as a result of policies implemented to address the pandemic either internally by the business or externally by a government or regulator.
The Company's share price and its ability to raise capital may be adversely affected in the short to medium term due to the ongoing economic uncertainty and disruption resulting from COVID-19.
(s) No Production Revenues
At present the Company is not generating any revenues from its operations nor has it commenced commercial production on any of its tenements. There can be no assurance that significant additional losses will not occur in the near future or that the Company will be profitable in the future. The Company's operating expenses and capital expenditures may increase in subsequent years as additional consultants, personnel and equipment associated with advancing exploration, development and commercial production of the Company's tenements are added. The amounts and timing of expenditures will depend on the progress of ongoing exploration and development, the results of consultants' analyses and recommendations, the rate at which are beyond the Company's control.
The Company expects to continue to incur losses unless and until such time as its tenements enter into commercial production and generate sufficient revenues to fund its continuing operations. The development of the Company's projects will require the commitment of substantial resources to conduct the time-consuming exploration and development activities. There can be no assurance that the Company will generate any revenues or achieve profitability. There can be no assurance that the underlying assumed levels of expenses will prove to be accurate.
Failure to obtain sufficient financing for the Company's activities and future projects may result in delay and indefinite postponement of its activities and potential development programmes. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed or, if available, the terms of the financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to Shareholders. The Company is exposed to risks associated with its financial instruments, cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities due to third parties from time to time. This includes the risk that a third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due and the risk that market prices may vary which will affect the Company's financial position and prospects.
Additional funding will be required in the event costs exceed the Company's estimates and also to effectively implement business and operations plans in the future, to take advantage of opportunities for acquisitions, joint ventures or other business opportunities, and to meet any unanticipated liabilities or expenses which the Company may incur. If such events occur, additional financing will be required. The Company may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures, licensing arrangements or other means. Failure to obtain sufficient financing for the Company's activities and future projects may result in delay and indefinite postponement of activities and potential development programmes. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed or, if available, the terms of the financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to Shareholders.
7.3 General risks
(a) Forecasts
The Directors consider that it is not possible to accurately predict the future revenues or profitability of the Company or whether any revenues or profitability will eventuate. The business of the Company is dependent upon a number of factors and many of these factors are outside the control of the Company. Consequently the Company and the Directors do not make any forecast or representation in relation to the Company's future financial position or performance.
(b) Economic
General economic conditions, introduction of tax reform, new legislation, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company's business activities and potential development programmes, as well as on the ability to fund those activities.
(c) Force majeure
The Company's business may be adversely affected by risks outside the control of the Company, including (but not limited to) labour unrest, civil disorder, subversive activities or sabotage, fires, floods, explosions or other catastrophes, epidemics, pandemics or quarantine restrictions.
(d) Uninsured loss and liability
Exploration for and development of minerals involves hazards and risks that could result in the Company incurring losses and liabilities to third parties. There is a risk that the Company may not be insured against all or any potential losses or liabilities that could arise from its activities. If the Company incurs losses or liabilities that are not covered by its insurance policies, the funds available for its business and activities will be reduced and could create risk for the value of the Company's assets.
(e) Dependence upon outside parties
The Company may pursue a strategy that forms strategic business relationships with other organisations in relation to potential products and services. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract such prospective organisations and to negotiate appropriate terms and conditions with these organisations or that any potential agreements with such organisations will be complied with.
(f) Market conditions
Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company's quoted securities regardless of the Company's operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:
- (i) general economic outlook;
- (ii) the COVID-19 pandemic;
- (iii) introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;
- (iv) interest rates and inflation rates;
- (v) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;
- (vi) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and
- (vii) terrorism or other hostilities.
The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and mining stocks in particular. Neither the Company nor the directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return to Shareholders arising from the Offer or any other event or occurrence.
(g) Reliance on key personnel
The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially upon senior management and its key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment or if one or more of the Directors leaves the Board.
(h) Government regulation risk
The Company's tenements and activities may be subject to extensive regulation by local, state and federal governments in relation to exploration, development, production, exports, taxes and royalties, labour standards, occupational health, waste disposal, protection and rehabilitation of the environment, mine reclamation, mine safety, toxic and radioactive substances, native title and other matters. Compliance with such laws and regulations will increase the costs of exploring, drilling, developing, constructing, operating and closing mines and other production facilities. There is a risk that approvals required for exploration and development programs and mining

operations may not be forthcoming, either at all or in a timely manner, or that they may not be able to be obtained on acceptable terms. A failure to obtain any approval would mean that the ability to participate in or develop any project, or possibly acquire any project, may be limited or restricted either in part or absolutely. There can be no assurance that future government policy will not change, and this may adversely affect the long-term prospects of the Company. In addition, future changes in governments, regulations and policies may have an adverse impact on the Company.
(i) Investment speculative
The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the New Securities offered under this Prospectus.
Therefore, the New Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those New Securities.
Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is highly speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for New Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.
8. Additional Information
8.1 Continuous disclosure obligations
The Company is a 'disclosing entity' (as defined in the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company's securities.
This Prospectus is a 'transaction specific prospectus'. In general terms a 'transaction specific prospectus' is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospectus of the issuing company.
This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.
Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the 3 months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.
Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.
The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act, states that:
- (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;
- (b) copies of documents lodged with ASIC in relation to the Company may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of ASIC; and
- (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:
- (i) the annual financial report of the Company most recently lodged with ASIC before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC;
- (ii) any half-year financial report lodged by the Company with ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC; and
- (iii) any continuous disclosure documents given by the Company to ASX in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules as referred to in section 674(1) of the Corporations Act after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC.
Copies of all documents lodged with ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal office hours.
Details of documents lodged by the Company with ASX since the date of lodgement of the Company's latest annual financial report and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC are set out in the table below:

Remuneration
Directors are entitled to be remunerated out of the funds of the Company.
The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is initially set by the Constitution and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of non-executive Directors' remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director.
A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (i.e. non-cash performance incentives such as Options and/or performance rights, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.
| Director | 2019/2020 (A\$) | 2020/2021 (A\$) |
|---|---|---|
| Mr Ian Gordon | N/A* | \$36,195 |
| Mr Kevin Seymour | N/A* | \$91,250 |
| Mr David Lindh | \$40,000 | \$75,365 |
| Mr David Richards | N/A* | \$36,195 |

* Indicates that the Director was not a director of the Company for the relevant period.
The Company also pays premiums to insure all of the Directors against liabilities for costs and expenses incurred by them in defending legal proceedings arising from their conduct whilst acting in the capacity as a Director of the Company. The Company has entered into indemnity, insurance and access deeds with each of the Directors (Deeds). Under the Deeds, the Company agrees to indemnify each of the Directors to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act against certain liabilities incurred by the Directors whilst acting as an officer of the Company, and to insure each Director against certain risks to which the Company is exposed as an officer of the Company. The Deeds also grant each Director a right of access to certain records of the Company for a period of up to 7 years after the Director ceases to be an officer of the Company.

8.7 Consents
Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act imposes a liability regime on the Company (as the offeror of the Securities), the Directors, the persons named in the Prospectus with their consent as proposed directors, any underwriters, persons named in the Prospectus with their consent having made a statement in the Prospectus and persons involved in a contravention in relation to the Prospectus, with regard to misleading and deceptive statements made in the Prospectus. Although the Company bears primary responsibility for the Prospectus, the other parties involved in the preparation of the Prospectus can also be responsible for certain statements made in it.
Each of the parties referred to in this section:
- (a) has not authorised or caused the issue of this Prospectus;
- (b) has not made, or purported to make any statement in this Prospectus, or on which any statement made in this Prospectus is based, other than the statements referred in this Section 8.7;
- (c) does not assume responsibility for any part of this Prospectus except for the statements referred to in this Section 8.7; and
- (d) to the maximum extent permitted by law, disclaims any responsibility or liability for any part of this Prospectus, other than a reference to it or a statement to be included in this Prospectus with their consent as specified in this Section 8.7.
Each of the following has consented in writing to being named in this Prospectus in the capacity noted below and in the form and context in which they have been named, and has not withdrawn such consent prior to the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC:
- (a) Adelaide Equity Partners Limited as the corporate advisor in respect of the Offers;
- (b) CBW Partners as legal adviser to the Company; and
- (c) Computershare Investor Services Pty Limited as the Company's share registry.
As permitted by ASIC Corporations (Consents to Statements) Instrument 2016/72, this Prospectus may include or be accompanied by certain statements:
- (a) fairly representing a statement by an official person; or
- (b) from a public official document or published book, journal or comparable publication,
including but not limited to where the statement was not made, or published, in connection with the Offers. Pursuant to ASIC Corporations (Consents to Statements) Instrument 2016/72, the consent of persons to which such statements are attributable is not required for the inclusion of those statements in this Prospectus.
8.8 Expenses of the Offers
The total expenses of the Offers are estimated to be approximately \$245,000 (excluding GST) and are expected to be applied towards the items set out in the table below:
| Cost | A\$ |
|---|---|
| ASIC fees | 3,000 |
| ASX fees | 7,500 |
| Legal fees | 30,000 |
| Corporate advisor and broker fees | 165,000 |
| Share registry, printing and distribution | 39,500 |
| Total | \$245,000 |
8.9 Financial forecasts
The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.
8.10 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship
The Company will not be issuing share or option certificates. The Company is a participant in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.
Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Shares issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.
Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.
