  • ⁻ Dips at ~75 degrees to the West

  • ⁻ Mineral Resource estimate drilling comprised 51 diamond drillholes for 21,083m and 19 RC drillholes for 4,422m

  • ⁻ Drillhole spacing varies from 20m by 20m and tighter in the to central areas to than 80m upper greater by

  • 80m in peripheral areas and at depth

  • ⁻ Mineralised domains extend from 125m below surface to 815m below surface with an width of ~6m average

  • (up to 30m true thickness)

  • ⁻ Mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth

  • ⁻ Metallurgical flotation testwork indicates recoveries of 95%, 90% and 66% copper, silver and gold respectively

  • ⁻ No estimates for Pb, Zn or Co were made, however significant mineralisation is noted and will be the subject of future investigations

⁻ In-house studies to commence scoping looking at variety of development options from stand alone to dig and truck

  • ⁻ Comprehensive metallurgical testwork

  • ⁻ Cobar-style deposits cluster and stack so the search for another Mallee Bull will continue

  • ⁻ Airborne EM over balance of tenure

  • ⁻ Ground geophysics

  • ⁻ Continued geochemical sampling and geological/structural mapping

  • ⁻ Drilling where appropriate

  • 14 granted ELs covering more than 3,062 km[2]

  • Sandy Creek, 20 km north along strike of Mallee Bull, highest priority prospect

  • Coincident magnetic, strong electromagnetic and IP anomalies

  • Historic drilling yielded encouraging results:

    • 1.4m at 12.7% Zn, 5.7% Pb, 45g/t Ag from 199.7m

    • 10.2m at 1.6% Cu, 7.4% Pb, 68g/t Ag from 521.8m

    • 4m at 0.5% Cu, 9.6% Pb, 1.1% Zn, 48g/t Ag from 493m

  • Relogging of all Sandy Creek drillcore recently completed – strong shearing and intensive alteration over broad area indicative of significant hydrothermal system

  • • Untested HeliTEM anomaly identified; follow-up surface EM underway

  • ⁻ Wirlong and Red Shaft Prospects

  • Sheared and outcropping Shuttleton volcanics and sediments present at both prospects

  • Extensive and untested Cu and Pb soil geochemical anomalies comprising:

    • 100ppm Cu anomaly: 750m strike with 125m width

    • 700ppm Pb anomaly: 450m strike with 75m width

1 Cobar Basin = worldclass mineral province 2 Mallee Bull = high grade copper deposit 3 Strong partnership through CBH Resources JV 4 Large strategic landholding with exciting prospects 5 Small team, high success rate, money goes into the ground

Metal equivalent Calculations

  • ⁻ Mineral Resource estimates include copper equivalent grades incorporating copper, silver and gold values. The copper equivalent grades are based on copper, silver and gold prices of $7000/t, $20.00/oz and $1300/oz with overall recoveries of 95%, 90% and 66% respectively. These estimates are based on Peel’s interpretation of potential commodity prices and the Company’s interpretation of first pass metallurgical test work performed on Mallee Bull diamond core using the following formula: Cu equivalent (%) = Cu (%) + 0.009 x Ag (g/t) + 0.415 x Au (g/t). It is the company’s opinion that all elements included in the metal equivalent calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold. Additional test work is required to demonstrate potential metallurgical recoveries for cobalt, lead and zinc.

JORC Code

  • ⁻ All information within this presentation relating to Mineral Resources is referred to Table 1 as appended into ASX market release “Highgrade Copper Resource at Mallee Bull” dated 27.05.2014.

  • ⁻ Any previously reported information within this announcement is referred to Table 1 of PEX’s Quarterly Activity Statement dated 30.04.2014 or to the Competent Persons Statements in the Disclaimer.
