Flagship project

==> picture [61 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [720 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Clancy believes that a clearly articulated growth strategy to build scale, either through project acquisition or corporate activity, will enable it to raise the capital required to advance its business and deliver value to shareholders

  • Over the last year, several opportunities have been assessed and one opportunity, the Plavica project held by Genesis Resources Limited, was seen as particularly attractive

  • Clancy pursued the opportunity through an off-market takeover offer for Genesis Resources Limited. Unfortunately the offer was unsuccessful, but Clancy has retained a 5.8% shareholding in that company and is encouraged by recent progress on the Plavica project by Genesis Resources

  • The Company is continuing its search for a more advanced project and hopes to be in a position to undertake a transaction during the course of 2013

Condobolin – 2013 work program

==> picture [61 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [720 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

• Work completed in the March 2013 quarter:

  • Ground gravity survey:

  • 125m to 250m offset gravity survey (1,183 stations)

  • complex network of structures coincident with significant intercepts of gold and copper at the Meritilga, Bluebell and Phoenix prospects identified

  • Processing and inversion modelling of the gravity data is in progress

Extension of 3D IP surveys:

  - additional four arrays were completed to extend the 2011 survey to the south-west to the Bluebell prospect

  - Two arrays were completed north of Meritilga over the palaeochannel area where an aircore drilling program in November 2011 identified alluvial and basement gold

  - Results show that the Bluebell prospect lies on the prospective Meritilga Fault confirming its strike length to now be 2km
  • Work in progress in the June 2013 quarter:

  • RC drilling (2,118m) completed in May 2013

  • Following up Meritilga high-grade intercept – down-dip and along strike

  • Also drilling completed at Bluebell

  • Results expected in late-May and early-June 2013

Condobolin Telescoped System

==> picture [61 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [720 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

The emerging concept is that there is a deep intrusive which could be driving a large hydrothermal system

  • MERITILGA

This system generated the numerous polymetallic historic mines and workings

The numerous styles of Au, Cu, Pb, Ag and Zn mineralisation in the district could be a manifestation of a substantial zoned hydrothermal system

Mineralisation and alteration identified to date is consistent with a low-sulphidation epithermal system

Skarn mineralisation is also present

==> picture [61 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [720 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Excellent potential

Joint venture strategy in NSW

==> picture [61 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [720 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Clancy’s strategy is to partner with parties that:

  • are amenable to Clancy retaining management rights

  • have the demonstrated financial capacity to actively explore a project

  • have specific technical knowledge and access to proprietary technical tools which may have a particular relevance to specific projects

  • Minority JV interests that are not delivering value are exited with royalty rights retained if possible

  • Clancy delivered on this strategy in 2012/2013:

  • Formed JV with Mitsubishi Materials Corporation of Japan (Mitsubishi) on three coppergold projects in August 2012

  • Formed JV with High Power Exploration Inc (HPX) on one copper-gold project in May 2013

  • The HPX JV on the Fairholme project will see the project-wide deployment of HPX’s proprietary geophysical survey technology

  • The Mitsubishi and HPX JV’s involve up to $8 million partner funded exploration expenditure over a three year period

  • Sold minority JV interests in seven JV’s to Gold Fields for $1.5 million (combination of cash and equity placement to Gold Fields) with Clancy retaining royalties

  • $1 million to earn 49% in first year ($500,000 minimum spend before withdrawal)

  • $4 million over next two years aimed at delineating a scoping study to earn 65%

  • HPX can earn 80-85% by sole funding a pre-feasibility study (cost dependent)

  • Clancy is project manager for the $5 million earn-in stage

  • Project-wide deployment of HPX’s proprietary geophysical survey technology

Fairholme

CLY: 100%, HPX earning 65% HPX have cutting edge geophysical technology that will penetrate the conductive overburden, which has hindered exploration previously at Fairholme, to define deep porphyry Cu-Au drill targets. The technology has been used successfully around the world and Fairholme will be the first project in Australia to use it.

  • Planning and permitting for surveys in progress

  • Aiming for geophysical survey works to commence in the September 2013 quarter
