INTRODUCTION

PDI’s principal focus is in the countries of Cote D’Ivoire and Burkina Faso in West Africa.

In Cote D’Ivoire (Figure 1), the Company has interests in six granted exploration permits and two permit applications, totalling 2,936km[2] , which are being actively explored under the terms of a joint venture with Toro Gold Limited ( Toro ). PDI is also conducting exploration under an agreement with Progress Minerals Inc ( Progress ) and Ivoirian Company, West African Venture Investments SARL ( WAVI ), on the Bobosso Project, which covers 1,200km[2] . A further six permit applications covering 2,320km[2] were announced on 6 February 2017.

In Burkina Faso, the Company has an effective Ouagadougou-based team and a large regional tenement package in the north-east of the country covering 982km[2] (Figure 8). PDI’s exploration focus is on the high-grade Bongou gold discovery and the surrounding area. A formal Mineral Resource Estimate on Bongou resulted in 184,000oz of gold in the Inferred and Indicated Mineral Resource categories with an average grade of 2.6g/t Au, including 136,000oz at 3.8g/t Au (ASX release dated 4/9/14).

PDI also holds an Exploration Licence in Victoria (Figure 9) which was drilled in 2016 by joint venture partner, Cape Clear Minerals Pty Ltd ( Cape Clear ).

Predictive’s current strategy is to maintain a high level of exploration activity on all of its projects through project-level funding, either via joint ventures or direct cash investments into private companies which hold the Company’s ground. The Toro, Progress and Cape Clear Joint Ventures are operating well and generating significant newsflow. At the same time, the Company contunues to acquire new ground on which it can undertake early stage exploration in its own right.

PROJECTS

CÔTE D’IVOIRE

CÔTE D’IVOIRE BACKGROUND

Predictive has been increasingly focused on Cote D’Ivoire in recent years. The country covers over a third of the highly prospective Birimian gold belt, more than any other country in West Africa. Cote D’Ivoire is highly underexplored for gold because the exploration investment boom in the last decade largely bypassed the country because of political instability. Since the accession of President Alassane Ouattara in 2011 and his re-election in 2015, and with investment certainty provided by an updated Mining Act and a forward-looking Mines Administration, Cote D’Ivoire has become a highly attractive exploration investment destination.

TORO GOLD JV

Predictive is in joint venture with Toro Gold Limited ( Toro ), a UK-based company, on six granted permits and two permit applications in Cote D’Ivoire (Figure 1). The Toro Joint Venture operates through Predictive Discovery Limited’s subsidiary, Predictive Cote D’Ivoire SARL ( Predictive CI ) of which Predictive now holds 49%. Toro has been earning a further 14% of Predictive CI by spending US$2.5 million, to lift its equity to 65%. The Company is awaiting formal notification from Toro that it had completed the required US$2.5 million expenditure during the March Quarter and had therefore earned 65%. Predictive plans to contribute 35% of the ongoing expenditure once formal notification has been received and after completion of an audit of those expenses.

Boundiali Exploration Permit

The Boundiali permit is located within a very well mineralised greenstone belt which contains the large operating Tongon and Syama gold mines in Cote D’Ivoire and Mali respectively (Figure 1). The southern part of this belt has had little exploration to date and represents a first class opportunity to make new large gold discoveries.

Predictive was granted the Boundiali permit in January 2014. The Company’s first exploration program on the permit was a BLEG stream sediment survey (ASX release dated 4/8/14) which

3

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

discovered a series of strong stream sediment anomalies, the best of which, a 24ppb Au anomaly, lies downstream of the new Nyangboue gold mineralised zone intersected in the 2016 RC drilling program.

Nyangboue Prospect

RC drilling on the Nyangboue Prospect in 2016 obtained a series of highly encouraging intercepts (announced to the ASX on 23/6/16, 25/7/16, 8/8/16, 12/9/16 and 13/10/16) including:

  • BRC003 - 28m at 4.04g/t Au from 3m, including 1m at 49.7g/t Au

  • BRC004 - 20m at 1.97g/t Au from 0m

  • BRC004 - 14m at 5.51g/t Au from 32m, including 1m at 31.6g/t Au

  • BRC004BIS (twin hole) – 20m at 10.45g/t Au from 38m including 1m at 145.5g/t Au

  • BRC006 – 9m at 7.9 g/t Au from 99m including 1m at 44.7g/t Au

  • BRC023 – 7m at 3.8g/t Au from 33m including 1m at 11.3g/t Au

  • BRC048 – 28m at 1.55g/t Au from 1m including 1m at 27.4g/t Au

  • BRC010 – 30m at 0.92g/t Au from 14m including 2m at 7.68g/t Au

Gold geochemical contours are superimposed on satellite imagery.

Diamond Drilling

A 1,658m diamond drilling program was completed during the March Quarter. Ten holes were drilled, most of which were designed to test the central section of the gold mineralised zone encountered in the 2016 RC drill program (Figure 2). Assay results are awaited.

A preliminary interpretation based on logging of the diamond drill holes indicates that the zone of gold mineralisation is located on a sheared contact between conglomerates to the west and a sandstone/shale unit to the east. Oriented drill core shows that the shear fabric strikes NNE (i.e. the same orientation as the Nyangboue gold anomaly and dips steeply to the east. This shear zone contains a series of thin, moderately west-dipping quartz veins that may carry a significant proportion of the contained gold.

Infill Soil Sampling

Infill soil sampling, totalling 307 samples, was completed over the western and southern gold-insoil anomalies (Figure 3). Samples were collected 50m apart on 200m spaced lines. The soil samples were analysed for gold by fire assay at the ALS laboratory at Loughrea in Ireland. Additional details of the sampling methods are provided in Table 1.

==> picture [406 x 270] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 3: Toro Gold soil sampling grid covering the Boundiali exploration permit, including the 200 x 50m infill sampling over the western and southern gold-in-soil anomalies. The earlier results were reported to the ASX on 20/10/15 and 23/3/16. The 6km long Nyangboue Prospect gold anomaly is also highlighted on this map. Rock chip sample locations are shown as small black triangles.

Multi - line gold anomalies were recorded in both areas. A 1.7km long gold-in-soil plus-50 ppb Au anomaly was obtained within the western gold anomalous zone. This includes a coherent plus

5

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

100ppb Au anomaly extending over more than 600m of strike. The highest new values recorded were 706ppb Au in the western anomalous zone and 639ppb Au in the southern anomalous zone.

Ferkessedougou North Permit

Ferkessedougou North is located directly in northern Cote D’Ivoire directly adjacent to Burkina Faso’s southern border (Figure 1). It is the subject of an agreement between Predictive Discovery CI and local Ivoirian company, Gold Ivoire Minerals SARL.

Soil Sampling Program

Infill soil sampling was carried out by Toro during the Quarter. 5,664 additional samples were collected over the 17km long anomalous zone first reported on 14 December 2016. The infill sampling increased the soil sample spacing in the target area from the initial 800 x 200m spacing to 200 x 50m.

The new soil samples were analysed for gold by fire assay at the ALS laboratory at Loughrea in Ireland. Additional details of the sampling methods are provided in Table 2.

==> picture [293 x 335] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 4: Location of soil samples and gold-in-soil anomalous values on satellite imagery background, Ferkessedougou North permit

6

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

Anomalous gold values (>20ppb Au) have been found in numerous locations throughout the grid (Figure 4). 16 samples with gold-in-soil values exceeding 0.5g/t Au have now been recorded, the highest value being 1.2g/t Au (1210ppb Au).

Geological mapping shows that foliation/shearing trends are NNE orientated. Gold mineralisation observed in artisanal workings (Figure 4) and the soil anomalies themselves are also NNE orientated suggesting that the source of the anomalies is a series of mineralised shear zones.

Prior to receiving these results, an RC drill program was planned in the June Quarter, however, in light of the very widespread nature of the anomalies, it has been decided to undertake an aeromagnetic survey first to help identify more promising structures for a later drilling program.

Kokoumbo and Beriaboukro Permits

Predictive CI is earning a 90% interest in the Kokumbo exploration permit in southern Cote D’Ivoire (Figure 1) from an Ivoirian company, Ivoir Negoce SARL. The Kokumbo permit covers an area of historic artisanal and French colonial era mining located in a highly prospective belt of rocks which also includes the Bonikro gold mine, currently in production by Newcrest, and Agbaou gold mine, where Endeavour Mining commenced commercial production in January 2014.

The Beriaboukro permit is located directly south of Kokoumbo (Figure 1) and is the subject of an agreement between Predictive CI and local Ivoirian company, Gold Ivoire Minerals SARL.

Soil Sampling Program

Results were received for infill soil sampling over both the Beriaboukro and Kokoumbo permits.

On Beriaboukro, 1,065 samples, were collected on a 400m x 100m spacing except for a small 100 x 50m grid over the Takalaso site. On Kokoumbo, 1,227 infill samples were taken on a 100 x 50m spacing.

The soil samples were analysed for gold by fire assay at the ALS laboratory at Loughrea in Ireland. Additional details of the sampling methods are provided in Tables 3 and 4.

The Beriaboukro soil sampling recorded additional anomalous gold values in the three areas with a peak value of 1375ppb Au (Figure 5). While some north-south oriented gold mineralised veins have been observed (e.g. at Takalaso), some soil anomalies appear to be oriented east-west.

The Kokoumbo infill sampling de-emphasised the apparent WNW trend that had been noted previously (e.g. ASX release dated 15/9/15) and highlighted instead a series of linear NNW trends, the longest of which is approximately 1.8km long (Figure 6).

Planned June Quarter Work Program

The June Quarter program will include the following:

  • A 3,000m RC drilling program to test the southern and western soil anomalies at Boundiali (Figure 3), possibly followed by an infill RC drill program on the main Nyangboue trend (depending on the results of the diamond drilling program completed in the March Quarter).

  • Subject to weather and rig availability, possible RC and/or diamond drilling on the Kokoumbo and Beriaboukro permits to follow up high priority soil geochemical targets and the Takalaso artisanal site (Figures 5 and 6).

  • Weather and contractor availability permitting, aeromagnetic surveys on the Ferkessedougou North and Ferkessedougou South permits to help prioritise drill targets for December Quarter drilling programs on both areas.

BOBOSSO PROJECT, COTE D’IVOIRE

The Bobosso Project consists of two granted exploration permits, Bassawa and Wendene in northern Cote D’Ivoire (Figure 1), which are held by an Ivoirian company, XMI SARl ( XMI ). Bassawa and Wendene are located in the southern extension of the well mineralised Hounde Belt in Burkina Faso, which includes Semafo’s Mana Mine (5 Moz in ore resources and reserves[1] ).

Previous exploration by Equigold, Lihir and Newcrest including a series of large drilling programs totalling 569 RC holes and 11 diamond drill holes has revealed a large gold mineralised system at the Bobosso project.

AGREEMENT WITH PROGRESS MINERALS

Predictive entered a three way agreement between Progress Minerals International Inc (Progress) and a local Ivoirian Company, West Africa Venture Investment ( WAVI ) during the March Quarter, to enable funding of exploration programs on the Bobosso permits. This agreement supersedes an agreement between PDI, WAVI and XMI in October 2016 (ASX release 27/10/15) which was subsequently updated in November 2016. Key terms of this agreement are as follows:

  • Investments in the Bobosso Project will be made through West African Mine Investments Pty Ltd ( WAMIL ), a Western Australian based private company, owned by Predictive Discovery Limited (37%) and WAVI (63%). At present WAMIL owns 50% of XMI with the remaining 50% of XMI to be transferred to WAMIL once permission to do so has been granted by the Cote D’Ivoire Minister of Mines. This is a standard requirement under Ivoirian law and is expected soon.

  • Predictive will provide technical management of work programs during the exploration phase in conjunction with Progress. WAVI will provide local management support in Cote D’Ivoire.

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

  • Equities in WAMIL will be earned as follows:

Stage 1:

  • Progress will invest US$1 million (approximately A$1.3 million) in exploration on Bobosso in one year or less to earn a 30% equity in WAMIL. These monies will be spent on a work plan agreed between the parties including:

  • 1,500-2,500m of diamond drilling on the Bobosso gold mineralised system.

  • Ground magnetics survey over 20 km[2] on the Bobosso soil geochemical anomaly and surrounding area to help interpret the detailed geological structure of the area prior to diamond drilling.

  • Geological mapping and BLEG gold geochemical surveys over the granted permits. These will be extended over the Dabakala permit application (Figure 1) if it is granted prior to the rainy season.

  • Follow-up RC drilling (also to be partially funded in Stage 2).

  • This program is designed to ensure that Predictive has the key information it requires to make decisions about its participation in the Stage 2 work program (see details below).

  • Payments totalling US$75,000 in cash were paid to WAVI after signature of the agreement in February 2017.

  • Equities at the end of Stage 1 will be PDI 30%, Progress 30% and WAVI 40%.

Stage 2:

  • At its option, Progress may invest a further US$1.5 million (approximately A$2 million) in WAMIL in 12 months or less to earn an additional 25% equity.

  • Assuming that Progress invests the US$1.5 million, PDI has the option to purchase equity from WAVI such that its equity in WAMIL will remain at 30% and WAVI will be reduced to 15%. It is PDI’s present intention to do this, however if PDI and WAVI cannot agree on a price for that transaction, PDI can choose to contribute pro rata to the Stage 2 exploration program to maintain its 30% equity or simply dilute to 19.1% (in the case of disappointing results).

  • If Progress contributes and PDI maintains its 30% equity, the parties’ equities at the end of Stage 2 will be Progress 55%, PDI 30% and WAVI 15%.

After Stage 2:

  • Any of the three partners may contribute to pre-approved work programs to maintain their respective equities in WAMIL or dilute down in accordance with a standard dilution formula.

  • Once WAVI’s equity is reduced to 15%, it will be free carried at that level through to decision to mine, at which point it will be required to either contribute to a

10

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

mine development or dilute down in accordance with a standard dilution formula.

DIAMOND DRILLING PROGRAM

A diamond drilling program, designed to test portions of the large Bobosso gold mineralised system, commenced in April. Historic drilling obtained many gold mineralised intercepts beneath a 7km[2] gold in soil geochemical anomaly (ASX release dated 28/10/15).

Between 1,500 to 2,500m of diamond drilling is planned, with the principal aim of developing a clear geological model of gold mineralisation continuity which can support later resource estimation studies. The program’s detailed objectives are to:

  • test for mineralisation continuity along east-west to north-east trends identified from geological mapping and geophysical surveys (see Figure 7),

  • follow up several historical high grade gold intercepts,

  • test for along strike extensions to known mineralisation, once the strike direction has been determined.

Drilling will be conducted in areas where historical drilling has intersected encouraging intercepts in holes that are now interpreted to have tested some of the Bobosso gold mineralised zones with incorrectly oriented holes.

Note the scale of the gold mineralised system with drilling extending over 4km of strike length on multiple structures.

Four initial target areas have been identified (Figure 7):

  • Target zone 1:

  • Testing apparently near-vertical high grade quartz veining.

11

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

  • Following up historical drill intercepts[2] :

    • BRC083: 5m at 20.6 g/t Au from 48m, including 3m at 31.8 g/t Au,

    • BDD001: 7m at 3.7 g/t Au from 97m including 0.34m at 36.9 g/t Au .

  • Target zone 2:

  • Testing an isolated high grade intercept in an area where several high grade veins have been intersected in other areas and/or discovered by artisanal miners.

  • Following up a historical drill intercept[3] :

    • BRC0278: 7m at 9.52 g/t Au from 26m .
  • Target zone 3:

  • Testing an apparently east-west striking and north-dipping zone of gold mineralisation

  • Following up historical drill intercepts[3] including:

    • BRC561: 9m at 4.2g/t Au from 12m,

    • BRC097: 7m at 5.36 g/t Au from 17m,

    • BRC313: 12m at 1.53g/t Au from 4m including 1m at 12.77g/t Au ,

    • BRC004: 18m at 1.79 g/t Au from 29m .

  • Target zone 4:

  • Testing several mineralised zones with uncertain strike orientations (either eastwest or north-east).

  • Following up historical drill intercepts including:

    • BRC047: 32m at 1.93g/t Au from 12m,

    • BRC343: 25m at 1.45g/t Au from 11m including 3m at 4.73 g/t Au ,

    • BRC076: 24m at 1.12g/t Au from 6m including 10m at 1.82 g/t Au .

BURKINA FASO

The Company’s tenement holding covers 982km[2] including approximately 100km of strike length in the Samira Hill greenstone belt in eastern Burkina Faso (the Bonsiega permit group, Figure 8). This belt hosts the 2.5 million ounce Samira Hill gold deposit across the border in Niger and contains numerous active artisanal gold mine sites along its length. PDI owns 100%, or has the rights to earn 95% to 100% of all its permits in Burkina Faso.

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

PDI has discovered gold mineralisation on multiple prospects in Eastern Burkina Faso during the past four years including the Bongou gold deposit. A formal Mineral Resource Estimate on Bongou resulted in 184,000oz of gold in the Inferred and Indicated Mineral Resource categories with an average grade of 2.6g/t Au, including 136,000oz at 3.8g/t Au (ASX release dated 4 September, 2014).

==> picture [391 x 249] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 8: Locality map of PDI permits in eastern Burkina Faso, showing location of Bongou and other key prospects.

No work was carried out in Burkina Faso during the March Quarter.

Predictive is currently working with the Burkina Faso Mines Department to renew some of the older permits in the tenement package. This has involved payment of some substantial permit renewal fees. Once these issues have been resolved, the Company should be able to advance discussions on possible joint venture on the Bonsiega Project.

AUSTRALIA

CAPE CLEAR JOINT VENTURE (EL5434)

Introduction

Exploration Licence 5434 is located west of Ballarat in Victoria (Figure 9). It was granted to PDI in July 2013. The area is highly prospective for shallowly concealed Stawell-style gold mineralisation. PDI previously carried out geological mapping and a gravity survey over part of the EL area. Execution of a binding farm-in agreement with Cape Clear Minerals Pty Ltd (CCM) on this EL was announced to the ASX on 22[nd] September 2014. Under that agreement, CCM could earn 75% equity in the licence by spending $500,000 on exploration, including at least 1,000m of drilling. CCM has complied with those conditions and has therefore achieved a 75% equity in the project.

13

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [340 x 310] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 9: Cape Clear Exploration Licence Locality Plan

Exploration on EL5434 is targeted at discovery of Stawell-style and/or Ballarat-style gold mineralisation on the margins of a concealed Cambrian basalt ridge located on the west side of the major north-south striking Avoca Fault. The Stawell gold deposit is located in a comparable geological position on the western side of a basalt ridge, which is, in turn, west of the major Coongee Fault.

No field work was undertaken during the Quarter.

Predictive and CCM are close to finalising revision of the joint venture arrangements such that Predictive will participate in exploration of the northern portion of EL5434, which PDI regards as being more prospective, and CCM will explore the southern portion in its own right.

Notes: Soil sampling is a reconnaissance exploration technique. In the sampling and sample preparation method used by Toro,
soil samples were collected from shallow holes and dried and sieved to -80 mesh at a local field camp. The prepared samples
were then sent to the ALS laboratory in Loughrea in Ireland for fire assay analysis. RL ranges for the Boundiali permit are 360 to
442m. Individual RLs are not reported in this announcement because they are not relevant to interpreting geochemical data of
this type.

cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is coarse

Notes: Soil sampling is a reconnaissance exploration technique. In the sampling and sample preparation method used by Toro,
soil samples were collected from shallow holes and then dried and sieved at 80# at a local field camp. The prepared samples
were then sent to the ALS laboratory in Loughrea in Ireland for fire assay analysis. RL ranges for the Ferkessedougou North
permit range from approximately 240m to 340m. Individual RLs are not reported in this announcement because they are not
relevant to interpreting geochemical data of this type.

Sampling Technique Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut
channels, random chips, or specific
specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as
downhole gamma sondes, or handheld
XRF instruments, etc). These examples
should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling Include
The sampling described in this report refers samples obtained
from the Ferkessedougou North exploration permit in Cote
D’Ivoire.
The soil samples were collected from shallow holes with depths
between 10 and 50cm.

sample representativity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to the
Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work
has been done this would be relatively
simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling
was used to obtain 1 m samples from
which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a
30 g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is coarse
gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (eg submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailedinformation.
Drilling Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation,
open- hole hammer, rotary air blast,
auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details
(eg core diameter, triple or standard
tube, depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether core
is oriented and if so, by what method,
etc).
This is not relevant to a soil sampling program.
Drill Sample Recovery Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries and
results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative
nature of the samples.
Whether a relationship exists between
sample recovery and grade and
whether sample bias may have

Notes: Soil sampling is a reconnaissance exploration technique. In the sampling and sample preparation method used by Toro,
soil samples were collected from shallow holes and dried and subsampled at a local field camp. The prepared samples were
then sent to the ALS laboratory in Loughrea in Ireland for fire assay analysis. The RL range for the Kokumbo permit is 133-
483m. Individual RLs are not reported in this announcement because they are not relevant to interpreting geochemical data of
this type.

Explanation
Commentary
Sampling Technique Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut
channels, random chips, or specific
specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as
downhole gamma sondes, or handheld
XRF instruments, etc). These examples
The sampling described in this report refers samples obtained
from the Kokoumbo exploration permit in Cote D’Ivoire.
The soil samples were collected from shallow holes with depths
between 10 and 50cm .

should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling Include
reference to measures taken to ensure
sample representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to the
Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work
has been done this would be relatively
simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling
was used to obtain 1 m samples from
which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a
30 g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is coarse
gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (eg submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailedinformation.
Drilling Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation,
open- hole hammer, rotary air blast,
auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details
(eg core diameter, triple or standard
tube, depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether core
is oriented and if so, by what method,
etc).
This is not relevant to a rock and soil sampling program.
Drill Sample Recovery Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries and
results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative
nature of the samples.
Whether a relationship exists between
sample recovery and grade and
whether sample bias may have
occurred due to preferential loss/gain
of fine/coarse material.
This is not relevant to a soil sampling program.
Logging Whether core and chip samples have
been geologically and geotechnical
logged to a level of detail to support
appropriate Mineral Resource
estimation, mining studies and
metallurgical studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or
costean/Trench, channel, etc)
photography.
The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.
Soil samples are described in terms of soil type, regolith and
landscape classification and colour. Descriptions are largely
qualitative.
Sub-Sampling
Technique and Sample
Preparation
If core, whether cut or sawn and
whether quarter, half or all core taken.
If non-core, whether riffled, tube
sampled, rotary split, etc and whether
sampled wet or dry.
For all sample types, the nature, quality
and appropriateness of the sample
preparation technique.
Quality control procedures adopted for
all sub-sampling stages to maximise
representivity of samples.
Measures taken to ensure that the
samplingis representative of the in situ
The sample preparation method is appropriate and standard for soil
samples of this type.

material collected, including for instance
results for field duplicate/second-half
sampling. Whether sample sizes are
appropriate to the grain size of the
materialbeing sampled.
Quality of Assay Data
and Laboratory Tests
The nature, quality and
appropriateness of the assaying and
laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered
partial or total.
For geophysical tools, spectrometers,
handheld XRF instruments, etc, the
parameters used in determining the
analysis including instrument make and
model, reading times, calibrations
factors applied and their derivation, etc.
Nature of quality control procedures
adopted (eg standards, blanks,
duplicates, external laboratory checks)
and whether acceptable levels of
accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision
have been established.
The analytical method used has a very low (1ppb Au) detection
limit which is appropriate for samples of this type.
Verification of
Sampling and
Assaying
The verification of significant
intersections by either independent or
alternative company personnel.
The use of twinned holes The
verification of significant intersections
by either independent or alternative
company personnel. Discuss any
adjustment to assay data
This is not relevant to a rock and soil sampling program.
Location of Data points Accuracy and quality of surveysused
tolocate drill holes (collar and down-
hole surveys), trenches, mine workings
and other locations used in Mineral
Resource estimation.
Specification of the grid system used
Quality and adequacy of topographic
control
Coordinates shown on the locality map (Figure 6) are for Universal
Transverse Mercator (UTM), Datum WGS 84, Zone 30 - Northern
Hemisphere.
Data Spacing and
Distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration
Results
Whether the data spacing and
distribution is sufficient to establish the
degree of geological and grade
continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimation
procedure(s) and classifications
applied.
Whether sample compositing has been
applied
The soil sampling grid was 100 x 50m and is considered
appropriate for exploring this well mineralised area. No
Mineral Resource can be estimated from these data.
Orientation of Data in
Relation to Geological
Structure
Whether the orientation of sampling
achieves unbiased sampling of
possible structures and the extent to
which this is known, considering the
deposit type.
If the relationship between the drilling
orientation and the orientation of key
mineralised structures is considered to
have introduced a sampling bias, this
should be assessed and reported if
material.
The samples were collected along lines which were designed
cross cut the interpreted geological features in the area,
including variously orientated structural trends and interpreted
lithological contacts.
Sample Security The measures taken to ensure sample
security
Samples are stored securely at Toro Gold’s field office in
Yamoussoukro.

The Kokumbo exploration permit was granted in June 2013.
PDI Cote D’Ivoire SARL is earning a 90% interest in the
Kokumbo permit from local partner, Ivoir Negoce. PDI Cote
D’Ivoire SARL is a wholly owned subsidiary of PDI. Toro Gold
Limited may earn a 65% interest in PDI Cote D’Ivoire SARL by
spending a total of US$3.5 million.
Exploration Done by
Other Parties
Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.
Extensive historical exploration has been carried out on the
Kokumbo permit and was acknowledged and described in PDI’s
release to theASXdated10/6/14.
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and
style of mineralisation.
The geology of Kokoumbo consists of granite,
metasediments, mafic volcanics and intrusives, and
conglomerates. Quartz-vein hosted mineralisation observed
at Kokoumbo is considered to be of the orogenic gold type.
Drill Hole Information A summary of all information material to
the understanding of the exploration
results including a tabulation of the
following information for all Material drill
holes:

easting and northing of the drill
hole collar

elevation or RL (Reduced Level –
elevation above sea level in
metres) of the drill hole collar

dip and azimuth of the hole

down hole length and interception
depth

hole length

If the exclusion of this information
is justified on the basis that the
information is not Material and
this exclusion does not detract
from the understanding of the
report, the Competent Person
should clearly explain why this is
the case.
This is not relevant to a rock and soil sampling program.
Sample coordinate information is provided in Table 1 and on
the map included in this release.
Data Aggregation
Methods
In reporting Exploration Results,
weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum grade
truncations (eg cutting of high grades)
and cut-off grades are usually Material
and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate
short lengths of high grade results and
longer lengths of low grade results, the
procedure used for such aggregation
should be stated and some typical
examples of such aggregations should
be shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting
of metal equivalent values should be
clearly stated.
This is not relevant to a rock and soil sampling program..
Relationship Between
Mineralisation Widths
and Intercept Lengths
These relationships are particularly
important in the reporting of Exploration
Results
If the geometry of the mineralisation
with respect to the drill hole angle is
known, its nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the down
hole lengths are reported, there should
be a clearstatement to this effect (eg
This is not relevant to a rock and soil sampling program.

30

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

‘down hole length, true width not
known’).
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with
scales) and tabulations of intercepts
should be included for any significant
discovery being reported These should
include, but not be limited to a plan
view of drill hole collar locations and
appropriate sectional views.
An appropriate plan showing the location of the soil
samples, classified by results, is shown in this release.
Balanced Reporting Where comprehensive reporting of all
Exploration Results is not practicable,
representative reporting of both low
and high grades and/or widths should
be practiced to avoid misleading
reporting of Exploration Results.
All soil sample results have been reported.
Other Substantive
Exploration Data
Other exploration data, if meaningful
and material, should be reported
including (but not limited to): geological
observations; geophysical survey
results; geochemical survey results;
bulk samples – size and method of
treatment; metallurgical test results;
bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical
and rock characteristics; potential
deleterious or contaminating
substances.
All relevant, new exploration data is reported in this release.
Further Work The nature and scale of planned further
work (eg tests for lateral extensions or
large scale step out drilling.
Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of
possible extensions, including the main
geological interpretations and future
drilling areas, provided this information is
not commercially sensitive.


RC or diamond drilling is planned to follow up these results.

Predictive Discovery Limited (PDI) was established in late 2007 and listed on the ASX in December 2010. The Company is focused on exploration for gold in West Africa. The Company operates in Burkina Faso, West Africa where it has assembled a substantial regional ground position covering 1,200km[2] and is exploring for large, open-pittable gold deposits. Exploration in eastern Burkina Faso has yielded a large portfolio of exciting gold prospects, including the high grade Bongou gold deposit on which a resource estimate was calculated in September 2014. PDI also has substantial interests in a large portfolio of tenements in Côte D’Ivoire covering a total area of 4,136 km[2] .
