Why PEX?

  1. Low-cost, efficient company focused on economic success.

  2. Attunga Tungsten Deposit is a potentially low-cost, economically robust tungsten-moly project.

  3. Attunga Tungsten Deposit is amongst the richest tungsten deposits in Australia, located near excellent infrastructure & low-cost, skilled labour.

  4. Attunga Tungsten Deposit has had minimal modern exploration and remains open at depth.

  5. Excellent regional exploration potential, ie, Kensington Au/W, Prospects 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 W/Mo, Mt Patterson Au, etc..

  6. Low MCap, tight share register.

Attunga Project Area

  1. 250km[2] - granted Sep 2007.

  2. Attunga Project Area bears hallmarks of an Intrusive-Related Gold System.

  3. Attunga Tungsten Deposit – amongst the richest tungsten deposits in Australia.

  4. Kensington gold-tungsten Deposit – widespread gold mineralisation.

  5. Numerous additional tungsten and gold prospects.

  6. Minimal modern exploration.

  7. Located 20 km North of Tamworth – excellent infrastructure and lowcost skilled labour.

Attunga Tungsten Deposit

  1. Location: 20 km north of Tamworth (400 km north of Sydney), New South Wales, Australia.

  2. 1969: outcropping scheelite mineralisation discovered and 25 diamond drillholes for 4,236m to a maximum depth of about 290m completed establishing a small highgrade reserve.

  3. April 2008: independent inferred JORC-compliant resource includes 1.29 Mt at 0.61% WO3 and 0.05% Mo using 0.2% WO3 cutoff.

  4. Two zones of significant mineralisation indicated by the resource model:

  5. A “boot-shaped” body extending vertically from the surface (RL610m) down to RL480m before splitting into two lobes down to RL410m.

  6. an irregularly shaped body around the high-grade intercept in drillhole AP1-023.

  7. Mineralisation remains open at depth.

  8. Minimal further exploration completed at Attunga since discovery.

Peel Exploration’s Activity at Attunga:

  1. September 2007: Exploration licence EL6884 (encompassing Attunga) granted and Geos Mining Mineral Consultants commissioned to complete independent JORCcompliant resource based on 26 drillholes.

  2. October 2007: relogging and assaying identifies previously unrecognised high-grade tungsten-molybdenum mineralisation - 2.44m at 4.3% WO3 and 0.23% Mo from 89.97m returned from historic drillhole ATT-23.

  3. March 2008: relogging and assaying identifies additional previously unrecognised high-grade tungsten-moly mineralisation - 12m at 0.65% WO3 and 0.07% Mo from 84m returned from RC drillhole ATRC-04.

  4. April 2008: independent JORC-compliant inferred resource estimation completed with results including 1.29 Mt at 0.61% WO3 and 0.05% Mo for 9,400t contained WO3 .

equivalent

  1. July/August 2008: 2 RC drillholes completed with an intersection of 42m at 2.09% WO3 and 0.17% Mo from 21m downhole (including 2m at 24.21% WO3 and 1.71% Mo from 22m) from RC drillhole ATP1-D (metallurgical hole).

  2. August 2008: NAGROM commissioned to undertake early warning metallurgical testwork.

Tungsten Market:

  1. Global consumption of 92,000 tpa, doubled in decade and growth of 3-5% pa forecast.

  2. China dominates tungsten industry (as much as 85% of supply) however operations are increasingly mature with lower grades and higher costs; industry now subject to “free market” conditions and environmental regulation.

  3. Western processors/refiners/end-users increasingly subject to China’s stranglehold on market.

  4. Many Western developments are unlikely to come online in timely manner predominantly due to Capex and technical issues.

  5. November 2008: Tungsten price has remained relatively strong (~US$240/mtu APT, ~US$150/mtu min 65% concentrate) relative to other metals underlining tight market conditions.

  6. Market analysts predict potential supply crunch in near future (2-5 years).

Attunga Tungsten Deposit Conceptual Development Timetable

  1. March 2009: Infill drilling.

  2. June 2009: Completion of scoping study.

  3. March 2010: Completion of BFS.

  4. Calendar 2009 to early 2010: Submission of Environmental Impact Statement, Mining Lease Application, funding and offtake contracts.

  5. 1st half calendar 2010: Project construction.

  6. 2nd half calendar 2010: Production.

Attunga Project Regional Exploration

  1. Kensington gold-tungsten prospect – widespread, low-level, sheeted vein/stockwork gold-tungsten system:

  2. 1971: percussion drilling program defines extensive, shallow tungsten mineralisation – substantial low-grade tungsten resource subsequently reported.

  3. 1987: ~800m diamond drilling program defined widespread significant gold mineralisation with results including: 108m at 0.74 g/t gold from 8m (KEN-6) and 13m at 1.1 g/t gold (KEN-7).

  4. 2008: ~1,200m RC drilling program confirms extensive gold mineralisation with numerous “economic” gold intercepts including: 13m at 1.07 g/t gold from 49m (KENRC-17); 15m at 0.93 g/t gold from 29m (KENRC-8); 9m at 1.4 gold from .

15m and 5m at 2.76 g/t gold from 60m (KENRC-9)

  1. Prospect 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 tungsten-moly prospects – analogous to Attunga Tungsten Deposit.

  2. Mt Patterson gold prospect – possible intrusion-related low sulphidation epithermal gold style mineralisation.

Other Peel Exploration Project Areas

  1. EL6613 - Dungowan contains numerous historic copper mines/workings. High-grade copper mineralisation at Fishers copper mine, with 2,643t of ore produced at an average grade of 13.4% copper.

  2. EL6614 - Barry is centred on a cluster of copper workings. Exploration in 1971 returned significant surface copper values and no follow-up has ever been reported.

  3. EL6719 - Waverley is centred on the historic Waverley silver-lead-zinc workings. Limited prospecting by Peelex has returned highly anomalous silver, lead and zinc values.

  4. EL6722 - Armidale contains several historic silver mines along with numerous gold, antimony, tungsten and molybdenum workings.

  5. ELA3483 - Boorolong contains the historic Boorolong molybdenum workings. Literature searches indicate possible high-grade molybdenum resources at Boorolong with little modern exploration.

  6. ELA3594 - Mt Tennyson East contains the historic Kirk and Wades (Mt Tennyson East) molybdenum-tungsten prospect. Literature searches indicate that tungstenmolybdenum mineralisation at Mt Tennyson East possibly represents an extension to the current Mt Tennyson molybdenum resource.
