3. IMPORTANT NOTICE

This Prospectus is dated 17 January 2013 and was lodged with ASIC on that date. ASIC takes no responsibility for the contents of this Prospectus. No person or entity is authorised to give any information or make any representation in connection with the Offer which is not contained in this Prospectus. Any information or representation not contained in this Prospectus must not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with the Offer or this Prospectus.

No Listed Options will be issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.

Applications for Listed Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be submitted with an original Application Form which accompanies this Prospectus.

It is important that applicants read this Prospectus in its entirety and, if in any doubt about whether to apply for Listed Options, seek professional advice. The Listed Options the subject of this Prospectus should be considered speculative. None of the Company, the Directors or any other person gives any guarantee as to the success of the Company, the repayment of capital, the payment of dividends, the future value of the Listed Options or the price at which the underlying Shares will trade on the ASX.

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus. In making representations in this Prospectus regard has been had to the fact that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and their professional advisers.

3.1 Applicants Outside Australia

The distribution of this Prospectus in jurisdictions outside Australia may be restricted by law and persons who come into possession of this Prospectus should seek advice on and observe any such restrictions. A failure to comply with these restrictions may violate applicable securities laws. This Prospectus does not, and is not intended to, constitute an offer in any place or jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or to issue this Prospectus. If you are resident a country other than Australia you should consult your professional advisers as to whether any governmental or other consents are required or whether any other formalities need to be considered and followed. The return of a completed Application Form will be taken by the Company to constitute a representation and warranty by you that all relevant approvals have been obtained. No action has been taken by the Company to register or qualify the Listed Options or the Shares or otherwise permit a public offering of the Listed Options the subject of this Prospectus in any jurisdiction outside of Australia.

3.2 Key Risks

You should be aware that subscribing for Listed Options the subject of this Prospectus involves a number of risks to the business, assets and operations of the Company that potentially influence the operating and financial performance of the Company.

Redstone is an exploration company and you should consider that an investment in the Company is speculative.

You should read this Prospectus in its entirety and, in particular, consider the key risk factors set out below and the Risk Factors in Section 7 before deciding whether to apply for Listed Options under this Prospectus.

You are urged to consider those risks carefully and, if necessary, also consult your professional advisers with any questions before deciding whether to subscribe for Listed Options. You should also note that the key risks below and the Risk Factors in Section 7 are not an exhaustive list of all risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company.

6

Some risks can be mitigated by the use of appropriate safeguards and appropriate systems and controls by the Company, however some are unpredictable and outside the control of the Company and the extent to which they can be mitigated or managed is very limited or not possible.

Set out below are key and specific risks that the Company is exposed to that may have a direct influence on the Company and its activities or assets, which may therefore affect the value of an investment in the Company.

Additional Requirements for Capital

The Company’s capital requirements depend on numerous factors. Depending on the Company’s ability to generate income from its operations, the Company may require further financing in addition to amounts raised under the Offer. Any additional equity financing will dilute existing shareholdings, and debt financing (if available) may involve restrictions on future financing and operating activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed or unable to obtain it on acceptable terms (whether or not due to the Company’s circumstances or economic and share market conditions or both), it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations and scale back its exploration programmes. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s activities and the value of the Listed Options and Shares.

Claims, liability and litigation

Mr Ailakis, a Director, was a defendant in a legal claim ( Claim ) lodged against him in 21 February 2011 in the District Court of Western Australia (3982 of 2010 Olivero v Ailakis & Anor) in his capacity as a Director. On 14 December 2012 the District Court awarded damages to the plaintiff of $750,000. The defendants are reviewing grounds for an appeal. The Company has entered into a Deed of Indemnity, Insurance and Access ( Deed ) with Mr Ailakis, whereby the Company has agreed to indemnify Mr Ailakis for certain liabilities incurred in defending the Claim. The Company has also lodged an insurance claim for legal expenses and losses that may arise from the Claim pursuant to the Company’s Directors and Officers policy with QBE Insurance. However, as at the date of this Prospectus the amount of potential claim for defence cost reimbursement from QBE Insurance or potential loss from the Claim is not known and a reasonable estimate cannot be made.

Title Risk - Australia

Interests in tenements in Australia are governed by State legislation and are evidenced by the granting of licences or leases. Each licence or lease is for a specific term and has annual expenditure and reporting commitments, together with other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose its title to or its interest in one or more of the tenements in which it has an interest if licence conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet the minimum expenditure commitments.

The Company’s tenements, and other tenements in which the Company may acquire an interest, will be subject to renewal, which is usually at the discretion of the relevant authority. If a tenement is not renewed the Company may lose the opportunity to discover mineralisation and develop that tenement.

A number of the Company’s tenements, namely exploration licences 69/2450 (Tollu), 69/2054 (Baggaley Hills), 69/2339 (Baggaley East), 69/2340 (Baggaley South) and 69/2108-2109 (Blackstone Range) expire in the coming 12 months. The Company cannot guarantee that those tenements, or any other tenements in which the Company has an interest in Australia, will be renewed beyond their current expiry date and there is a material risk that, in the event the Company is unable to renew any of its tenements beyond their current expiry date, all of part of the Company’s interests in the corresponding projects may be relinquished.

Title Risk – Brazil

The Company owns a number of mining tenements and applications for mining tenements in Brazil. Mining tenure in Brazil is governed by Brazilian legislation. Failure to comply strictly with the applicable laws, regulations and local practices relating to mineral rights and tenure in that jurisdiction could result in the loss, reduction or expropriation of the Company’s rights and entitlements in respect of those tenements.

Some of the Company’s Brazilian tenements which expired in 2011, namely 866280/2007 (Arinos), and 2010, namely 880197/2007 and 880197/198 (Anebá), are currently subject to an application for extension with the National Department of Mineral Production, while a number of other Brazilian tenement applications have not yet been granted.

7

The Company’s interests in Brazil are subject to the risks associated with operating in a foreign country. These risks may include economic, social or political instability or change, hyperinflation, currency nonconvertibility or instability and changes of law affecting foreign ownership, exchange control, exploration licensing, export duties, investment into a foreign country and repatriation of income or return of capital, environmental protection, land access and environmental regulation, mine safety, labour relations as well as government control over mineral properties or government regulations that require the employment of local staff or contractors or require that other benefits be provided to local residents.

The Company may also be hindered or preventing from enforcing its rights with respect to government instrumentalities because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity.

Any future material adverse changes in government policies or legislation in Brazil that affect ownership, mineral exploration, development or mining activities, may affect the viability and profitability of the Company.

The legal system operating in Brazil is different to that operating in Australia and this may result in risks such as:

  • (a) Different forms of legal redress in the courts whether in respect of a breach of law or regulation, or in ownership dispute.

  • (b) A higher degree of discretion on the part of governmental agencies.

  • (c) Differences in political and administrative guidance on implementing applicable rules and regulations including, in particular, as regards local taxation and property rights.

  • (d) Different attitudes of the judiciary and court.

  • (e) Difficulty in enforcing judgments.

The commitment by local business people, government officials and agencies and the judicial system to abide by legal requirements and negotiated agreements may be more uncertain, creating particular concerns with respect to licences and agreements for business. These may be susceptible to revision or cancellation and legal redress may be uncertain or delayed. There can be no assurance that joint ventures, licences, licence applications or other legal arrangements will not be adversely affected by the actions of government authorities or others and the effectiveness and enforcement of such arrangements cannot be assured.

The Company cannot guarantee that the tenements in which it has an interest in Brazil will be renewed beyond their current expiry date and there is a material risk that, in the event the Company is unable to renew any of its tenements beyond their current expiry date, all or part of the Company’s interests in the corresponding projects may be relinquished.

Further, there is no guarantee that any applications for mining tenements made by the Company will be granted or granted on conditions satisfactory to the Company.

Exploration Risks

The Company’s mining tenements are at various stages of exploration however none of the tenements in which the Company has an interest currently contain a JORC Code compliant resource and there is no guarantee that a JORC Code compliant resource will be discovered on any of the Company’s tenements.

You should be aware that mineral exploration and development are high risk undertakings due to the high level of inherent uncertainty. There can be no assurance that exploration of the Company’s tenements, or of any other tenements that may be acquired by the Company in the future, will result in the discovery of economic mineralisation. Even if economic mineralisation is discovered there is no guarantee that it can be commercially exploited.

The future exploration activities of the Company may be affected by a range of factors including geological conditions, limitations on activities due to seasonal weather patterns, unanticipated operational and technical difficulties, industrial and environmental accidents, native title process, changing government regulations and many other factors beyond the control of the Company.

8

The success of the Company will also depend on the Company having access to sufficient development capital, being able to maintain title to its projects and obtaining all required approvals for its activities. In the event that exploration programmes prove to be unsuccessful this could lead to a diminution in the value of the Company’s projects, a reduction in the cash reserves of the Company and possible relinquishment of part or all of the Company’s projects.

Access Risk - Native Title and Aboriginal Heritage

Redstone’s Western Australian tenements are located on an aboriginal reserve where permission from the traditional owners is required for access to the land, which permission has already been granted. It is possible that the presence of aboriginal sacred sites found within tenements held by the Company may preclude exploration and mining activities and the Company may also experience delays with respect to obtaining permission from the traditional owners to explore and extract resources. The Company currently has no exploration targets covering sacred sites.

The Company must comply with Aboriginal heritage legislation requirements and access agreements which require heritage survey work to be undertaken ahead of the commencement of mining operations. There are a number of registered Aboriginal heritage sites within the area of the Company’s tenements. It is possible that some areas of those tenements may not be available for exploration due to Aboriginal heritage issues (whether in respect of registered sites or not). Under Western Australian and Commonwealth legislation the Company may need to obtain the consent of the holders of such interests before commencing activities on affected areas of the tenements. These consents may be delayed or given on conditions which are not satisfactory to the Company.

Reliance on Key Personnel

The responsibility of overseeing the day to day operations of the Company depends on its management and its key personnel. The Company is aware of the need to have sufficient management to properly supervise the exploration and, if exploration is successful, the development of the Company’s projects. As the Company’s projects and prospects progress and develop, the Board will continually monitor the management requirements in the Company and look to employ or engage additional personnel when and where appropriate to ensure proper management of the Company’s projects. However there is a risk that the Company may not be able to secure personnel with the relevant experience at the appropriate time which may impact on the Company’s ability to complete all of its planned exploration programmes within the expected timetable. Furthermore, you should be aware that no assurance can be given that there will be no adverse effect on the Company if one or more of its existing Directors or management personnel cease their employment or engagement with the Company.

Exploration Costs

The exploration costs of the Company are based on certain assumptions with respect to the method and timing of exploration. By their nature these estimates and assumptions are subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the actual costs may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions. Accordingly no assurance can be given that the cost estimates and the underlying assumptions will be realised in practice, which may materially and adversely affect the Company’s operating and financial performance and the value of the Listed Options and Shares.

Contractual and Joint Venture Risk

The Company’s ability to achieve its objectives and earn or maintain an interest in the Blackstone Range Project (Western Australia), the Baggaley Hills Project (Western Australia) and the Pontal Project (Brazil) are dependent upon it and the registered holders of those tenements complying with their respective contractual obligations under joint venture agreements in respect of those tenements, and the registered holders complying with the terms and conditions of the tenements and any other relevant legislation. As at the date of this Prospectus the Company has earned a 75% interest in the Blackstone Range Project and is entitled to become the registered holder of that interest, however any failure to comply with these obligations may result in the Company not being able to earn a further 15% interest in the tenements.

In the event that the Company’s joint venture partner in connection with the Baggaley Hills Project or the Pontal Project fails to meet its expenditure and other commitments under the respective joint venture agreements, Redstone would need to source alternative funding to keep the project(s) in good standing and develop the project(s).

9

The Directors are not able to presently assess the risk of financial failure or default by a participant in any joint venture to which the Company is, or may become a party, or the insolvency or other failure by any of the contractors engaged by the Company for any exploration or other activity. Any such failure or default could adversely affect the operations and performance of the Company and the value of the Listed Options and Shares.

Further risks associated with an investment in the Company are contained in Section 7 .

5.4 Assumptions

The Pro-Forma Unaudited Consolidated Statement of Financial Position set out above has been prepared on the basis and assumption that there have been no material movements in the assets and liabilities of the Company between 30 June 2012 and completion of the Offer that should have been reflected in the audited full year financial statements of the Company as at 30 June 2012 except:

  • (b) the Company will undertake and complete the Offer, being a placement of 6,000,000 Listed Options at an issue price of $0.001 per Listed Option to raise a maximum of $6,000 (before costs);

15

  • (c) total costs expected to be incurred in relation to the Offer of $11,671 are recognised directly against equity;

  • (d) the placement of 11,600,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.10 per Share (together with 5,800,013 free attaching Options) announced to ASX on 4 October 2012 and net proceeds received of $1,126,150 (after ASX listing and capital raising fees);

  • (e) the placement of 8,400,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.10 per Share (together with 4,200,014 free attaching Options) announced to ASX on 13 December 2012 and net proceeds received of $814,950 (after ASX listing and capital raising fees);

  • (f) cash proceeds totalling $280,000 received between 1 July 2012 and the date of this Prospectus relating to instalments due in accordance with the Anebá (Potash) Sale and Purchase Agreement dated 7 May 2012; and

No Shares or Options on issue as at the date of this Prospectus are subject to escrow restrictions, either voluntary or imposed by ASX. Up to 3,000,000 of the Listed Options to be issued under the Offer will not vest until the Company’s Share price trades about $0.25 for at least three consecutive business days. Those 3,000,000 Listed Options will be subject to voluntary escrow restrictions, and are prohibited from being transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of, until the vesting condition is met.

5.6 Effect of Control of the Company

The Offer is not expected to have any impact on control of the Company.

5.7 Details of Substantial Holders

Based on information available to the Company as at the date of this Prospectus, those persons who (together with their associates) have a relevant interest in 5% or more of the Shares on issue are set out below:

Shareholder Shares % shareholding before
the Offer
Entitlements
under
the Offer
Edward van Heemst 12,417,331 8.2% Nil
Eastern Prospecting Pty Ltd 9,875,758 6.5% Nil
Samarkand Holding Pty Ltd 9,875,758 6.5% Nil
Bullrun Investments Pty Ltd 9,725,758 6.4% Nil

Only Argonaut Capital Limited or its nominees are entitled to participate in the Offer as the purpose of the Offer is to provide Argonaut Capital Limited with consideration to which it is entitled under the corporate adviser mandate agreement, summarised in Section 8.3(a). Accordingly Argonaut Capital Limited is the only holder whose interests in the Company may increase as a result of the Offer.

As at the date of this Prospectus Argonaut Capital Limited and its related bodies corporate have an interest in 3,150,678 Shares and 3,546,582 Options and accordingly would have an interest in 4.3% of the Shares on issue if all their Options were exercised and assuming no other Options were exercised. As a result of the Offer, the number of Options held by Argonaut Capital Limited and its related bodies corporate will increase by up to 6,000,000 to a maximum of 9,546,582 Options. If all of the 6,000,000 Listed Options under the Offer are issued and all of the Options held by Argonaut Capital Limited and its related bodies corporate were exercised at the conclusion of the Offer (and assuming no other Options were exercised) this would mean that Argonaut Capital

17

Limited and its related bodies corporate would hold an interest in 12,697,260 Shares or an 7.9% interest in the Shares on issue.

5.8 Financial Forecasts and Cashflow Projections

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and consider that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings for the Company. Given the speculative nature of mineral exploration and the early stage of the Company’s projects there are significant uncertainties associated with the future revenue earning potential of the Company and the timing and sustainability of the cash flow. On the basis of these inherent uncertainties, the Directors believe that reliable forecasts cannot be prepared and accordingly have not included forecasts in this Prospectus.

6. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SECURITIES

6.1 Terms and Conditions of Listed Options

Each Listed Option entitles the holder to subscribe for Shares on the following terms and conditions:

  • (a) Entitlement

Each Listed Option entitles the holder to subscribe for one Share upon exercise of each Listed Option.

  • (b) Exercise Price

The exercise price of the Listed Option is $0.20.

  • (c) Expiry Date

Each Listed Option has an expiry date of 28 February 2016.

  • (d) Exercise Period Each Listed Option is exercisable at any time on or before 28 February 2016.

  • (f) Notice of Exercise Each Listed Option may be exercised by notice in writing to the Company. Any notice of exercise of Listed Options received by the Company will be deemed to be a notice of the exercise of the Listed Options as at the date of receipt.

  • (g) Timing of issue of Shares

After a Listed Option is validly exercised, the Company must as soon as possible:

  • A. issue and allot the Share; and

  • B. do all such acts matters and things to obtain the grant of Quotation for the Share on ASX no later than 5 days from the date of exercise of the Listed Option.

  • (h) Shares issued on exercise Shares issued on exercise of the Listed Options rank equally with the then issued Shares.

  • (i) Quotation of Shares on exercise Application will be made by the Company to ASX for Quotation of the Shares issued upon the exercise of the Listed Options.

  • (j) Participation in new issues There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Listed Options and holders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to Shareholders during the currency of the Listed Options.

However, the Company will ensure that for the purposes of determining entitlements to any such issue, the record date will be at least ten business days after the issue is announced. This will give holders of Listed Options the opportunity to exercise their Listed Options prior to the date for determining entitlements to participate in any such issue.

  • (k) Adjustment for bonus issues of Shares

19

If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other securities to existing Shareholders (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction, of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment):

  • A. the number of Shares which must be issued on the exercise of a Listed Option will be increased by the number of Shares which the Listed Option holder would have received if the Listed Option holder had exercised the Listed Option before the record date for the bonus issue; and

  • B. no change will be made to the exercise price of the Listed Options.

  • (l) Adjustment for rights issue

If the Company makes an issue of Shares pro rata to existing Shareholders (other than an issue in lieu of in satisfaction of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment) the exercise price of a Listed Option will be reduced according to the following formula:

New exercise price = O -

E [ P  ( SD )] N  1

  • O = the old exercise price of the Listed Option.

  • E = the number of underlying Shares into which one Listed Option is exercisable.

  • P = average market price per Share weighted by reference to volume of the underlying Shares during the 5 trading days ending on the day before the ex rights date or ex entitlements date.

  • S = the subscription price of a Share under the pro rata issue.

  • D = the dividend due but not yet paid on the existing underlying Shares (except those to be issued under the pro rata issue).

  • N = the number of Shares with rights or entitlements that must be held to receive a right to one new share.

  • (m) Adjustments for reorganisation

If there is any reconstruction of the issued share capital of the Company, the rights of the Listed Option holders will be varied to comply with the Listing Rules which apply to the reconstruction at the time of the reconstruction.

  • (n) Lodgement Instructions

  • Cheques shall be in Australian currency made payable to the Company and crossed "Not Negotiable". The application for Shares on exercise of the Listed Options with the appropriate remittance should be lodged with the Company Secretary, at the Company’s registered office.

6.2 Rights and Liabilities attaching to Shares

The underlying Shares into which the Listed Options offered for subscription under this Prospectus will convert upon exercise of the Listed Options are new Shares that will rank equally with the issued Shares. The rights attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution and in certain circumstances are regulated by the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules, the ASX Settlement Operating Rules and general law. The rights, privileges and restrictions attaching to Shares are summarised below. This is not exhaustive nor is it a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement you should obtain independent legal advice. A copy of

20

the Constitution is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a) Voting

At a general meeting, on a show of hands every Shareholder present in person has one vote. At the taking of a poll, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy and whose shares are fully paid has one vote for each of his or her shares. On a poll, the holder of a partly paid share has a fraction of a vote with respect to the share. The fraction is equivalent to the proportion which the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amount paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(b) Dividends

The Directors may pay to ordinary Shareholders any interim and final dividends as, in the Directors' judgement, the financial position of Company justifies. The Directors may fix the amount, the record date for determining eligibility and the method of payment. All dividends must be paid to the Shareholders in proportion to the number and the amount paid on the Shares held.

(c) Transfer of Shares

Generally, all Shares are freely transferable subject to the procedural requirements of the Constitution, and to the provisions of the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules and the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. The Directors may decline to register an instrument of transfer received where the transfer is not in registrable form or where refusal is permitted under the Listing Rules or the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. If the Directors decline to register a transfer the Company must give reasons for the refusal. The Directors must decline to register a transfer when required by the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules or the ASX Settlement Operating Rules.

(d) General meetings

Each Shareholder is entitled to, receive notice of, attend and vote at general meetings of the Company and to receive all notices, financial statements and other documents required to be sent to Shareholders under the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules.

(e) Variation of rights

The Company may only modify or vary the rights attaching to any class of shares with the prior approval by a special resolution of the holders of shares in that class at a meeting of those holders, or with the written consent of the holders of at least threefourths of the issued shares of that class.

(f) Liquidation Rights

Subject to any Shares that may in the future be issued with special or preferential rights (currently there are none), the surplus assets of the Company after winding-up will be divided among the Shareholders in proportion to the number of Shares held by them, irrespective of the amounts paid or credited as paid on the Shares.

However, a liquidator in a winding-up may, with the sanction of a special resolution of members, divide among the Shareholders the whole or any part of the property of the Company and determine how the division is to be carried out as between Shareholders of different classes.

(g) Issue of further Shares

Subject to the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, the Directors may issue, or grant options in respect of, Shares to such persons on such terms as they think fit. In particular, the Directors may issue preference shares, including redeemable preference shares, and may issue shares with preferred, deferred or special rights or restrictions in relation to dividends, voting, return of capital and participation in surplus on winding up.

21

  • (h) Alteration to the Constitution The Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least 75% of ordinary Shareholders present and voting at a general meeting. At least 28 days' notice of the intention to propose the special resolution must be given.

(i) Directors

The minimum number of Directors is three and the maximum is 14 unless resolved otherwise in general meeting. Currently, there are three Directors. Directors must retire on a rotational basis so that one-third of Directors retire at each annual general meeting. Any other Director who has been in office for three or more years must also retire. A retiring Director is eligible for re-election. The Directors may appoint a Director either in addition to existing Directors or to fill a casual vacancy, who then holds office until the next annual general meeting.

(j) Decisions of Directors

Questions arising at a meeting of Directors are decided by a majority of votes. Where the votes are equal on a proposed resolution the chairman of the Board does not have a casting vote.

22

7. RISK FACTORS

7.1 Introduction

Subscribing for Listed Options involves a number of risks. Prospective investors in the Company should consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, before deciding whether to apply for the Listed Options offered under this Prospectus.

Redstone is an exploration company and you should consider that an investment in the Company is speculative. You should consult your professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Listed Options pursuant to this Prospectus.

The risk factors set out below and others not specifically referred to below must not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company.

These risk factors may materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Listed Options offered under this Prospectus and the underlying Shares. Accordingly the Listed Options to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus and the underlying Shares carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or their market value. Some risks can be mitigated by the use of appropriate safeguards and appropriate systems and controls by the Company, however some are unpredictable and outside the control of the Company and the extent to which they can be mitigated or managed is very limited or not possible.

KEY RISKS SPECIFIC TO THE COMPANY

7.2 Key Risks

The key risks which the Directors consider are associated with an investment in the Company are:

  • (a) Additional Requirements for Capital.

  • (b) Claims, liabilities and litigation.

  • (c) Title Risk – Australia.

  • (d) Title Risk – Brazil.

  • (e) Exploration Risks.

  • (f) Access Risks – Native Title and Aboriginal Heritage.

  • (g) Reliance on Key Personnel.

  • (h) Exploration Costs.

  • (i) Contractual and Joint Venture Risk.

Details of these key risks are contained in Section 3.2 and have not been repeated in this Section 7 .

23

INDUSTRY RISKS

7.3 Operating Risks

The current and future operations of the Company, including exploration, project appraisal and possible production activities may be affected by various factors which can limit or prevent such activities. Such factors may include failure to locate or identify mineral deposits, failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered in surveying, drilling, other exploration activities and/or production activities, difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment, electrical or mechanical failure or plant break, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of skilled labour, consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

7.4

Resource Estimates

None of the Company’s tenements contain a JORC Code compliant resource and there is no guarantee that a JORC Code compliant resource will be discovered on any of the Company’s tenements. Resource estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates which were valid when originally calculated may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. In addition, by their very nature, resource estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations which may prove to be inaccurate. As further information becomes available through additional fieldwork and analysis the estimates are likely to change. This may result in alterations to development and mining plans which may, in turn, adversely affect the Company’s operations and the value of the Listed Options and Shares.

7.5 Commercial Risk

The mining industry is competitive and there is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of minerals are discovered by the Company on its current projects or future projects it may acquire an interest in, a profitable market will exist for sales of such minerals. There can be no assurance that the quality of any such minerals will be such that they can be mined economically.

7.6

Commodity Price Volatility and Exchange Rate Risks

If the Company achieves success leading to mineral production, the revenue it will derive through the sale of copper, nickel or any other minerals it may discover exposes the potential income of the Company to commodity price and exchange rate risks. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by many factors beyond the control of the Company. Such factors include supply and demand fluctuations for precious and base metals, technological advancements, forward selling activities and other macro-economic factors such as inflation expectations, interest rates and general global economic conditions.

Furthermore, international prices of various commodities are denominated in United States dollars whereas the income and expenditure of the Company are and will be taken into account in Australian currency. This exposes 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 markets.

If the price of commodities declines this could have an adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development and possible production activities, and its ability to fund these activities, which may no longer be profitable.

7.7

Insurance Risks

Exploration for minerals and development of mineral resource projects involves hazards and risks that could result in the Company incurring losses or liabilities that arise from its operations. If the Company incurs losses or liabilities which are not covered by its insurance policies, the funds available for exploration and development will be reduced and the value and/or title to the Company’s assets may be at risk.

24

The Company insures its operations in accordance with industry practice. However in certain circumstances the Company’s insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the Company.

Insurance against all risks associated with mining exploration and production is not always available and, where available, the costs can be prohibitive or not adequate to cover all claims.

7.8

Environmental Risks

The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to Western Australian and Commonwealth laws and regulations concerning the environment as well as all laws and regulations concerning the environment in Brazil. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. Future legislation and regulations governing exploration, development and possible production may impose significant environmental obligations on the Company.

The cost and complexity of complying with the applicable environmental laws and regulations may prevent the Company from being able to develop potential economically viable mineral deposits. The Company may require approval from the relevant authorities before it can undertake activities that are likely to impact the environment. Failure to obtain such approvals or to obtain them on terms acceptable to the Company may prevent the Company from undertaking its desired activities. The Company is unable to predict the effect of additional environmental laws and regulations, which may be adopted in the future, including whether any such laws or regulations would materially increase the Company’s cost of doing business or affect its operations in any area.

There can be no assurances that new environmental laws, regulations or stricter enforcement policies, once implemented, will not oblige the Company to incur significant expenses and undertake significant investments in such respect which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

7.9

Access to Infrastructure

There is limited capacity and high demand for rail and port services for the export of mineral products in Australia at the present time. If the Company progresses to production there is no guarantee that appropriate and affordable rail and port capacity will be available, which could have an adverse effect on the Company. In the event of production the Company will also require the use of both power and water infrastructure. Due to high demand for power and water access there is a risk that the Company may not be able to procure such access which could have an adverse effect on the Company.

GENERAL RISKS

7.10 General Economic Conditions

General economic conditions, introduction of tax reform, new legislation, the general level of activity within the resources industry, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development and possible production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

7.11 Share 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:

(a) general economic outlook; (b) the introduction of tax reform or other new legislation (such as royalties); (c) interest rates and inflation rates; (d) currency fluctuations;

25

  • (e) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors in Australia and/or overseas (such as the exploration industry or copper and/or nickel sectors within that industry);

  • (f) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (g) terrorism or other hostilities.

The market price of the Listed Options and underlying Shares can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular, which influences are beyond the Company’s control and which are unrelated to the Company’s performance. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company, the Listed Options or the Shares and subsequently any return on an investment in the Company. Shareholders who exercise their Listed Options and sell the Shares into which they convert may not receive the entire amount of their original investment.

  • 7.12 Volatility in Global Credit and Investment Markets Global credit, commodity and investment markets have recently experienced a high degree of uncertainty and volatility. The factors which have led to this situation have been outside the control of the Company and may continue for some time resulting in continued volatility and uncertainty in world stock markets (including the ASX). This may impact the price at which the Listed Options and Shares trade regardless of operating performance and affect the Company’s ability to raise additional equity and/or debt to achieve its objectives, if required.

7.13 Government and Legal Risk

  • The introduction of new legislation or amendments to existing legislation by governments (including introduction of tax reform), developments in existing common law or the respective interpretation of the legal requirements in any of the legal jurisdictions which govern the Company’s operations or contractual obligations, could impact adversely on the assets, operations and ultimately the financial performance of the Company and its Listed Options and Shares. The same adverse impact is possible by the introduction of new government policy or amendments to existing government policy.

7.14 Unforeseen Expenditure Risk

  • Expenditure may need to be incurred that has not been considered in this Prospectus. Although the Company is not aware of any such additional expenditure requirements, if such expenditure is subsequently incurred this may adversely affect the expenditure proposals and activities of the Company, as the Company may be required to reduce the scope of its operations and scale back its exploration programmes. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s activities and the value of the Listed Options and Shares.

26

8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

8.1 Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in section 111AC of 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 to the market any information it has 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 the Company and the rights attaching to the 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 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.

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 (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) 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 most recently lodged by the Company 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 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.
