QUARTERLY REPORT

For the Period Ending 31 March 2016

Redstone Resources Limited (ASX Code: RDS) ("Redstone" or "the Company") presents its quarterly report for the period ending 31 March 2016 ("the Quarter").

Redstone's primary focus is the advancement of the Tollu Project, located in the southeast portion of the West Musgrave region of Western Australia. This Project hosts a giant swarm of hydrothermal copper rich veins in a mineralised system covering an area at least 5km2 . Copper mineralisation is exposed at the surface and forms part of a dilation system between two major shears.

Redstone expects the Project's mineralised area and the volume of hydrothermal mineralisation to increase significantly with further drilling.

KEY OUTCOMES

  • Analysis of RC drilling program assay samples
  • Confirmation of shallow oxide/transitional copper mineralisation potentially amenable to evaluation of a low cost development path as part of the broader development strategy of the larger and higher grade sulphide prospects
  • Identification of the Forio prospect over 250m of mineralised strike which remains open in all directions
  • Confirmation of up dip continuity of the sulphide mineralisation at Chatsworth and Eastern Reef Prospects
  • Identification of copper mineralisation in re‐assay of historic prospects Kilruddery and Hertsecombe
  • Significant copper intercepts primarily from the balance of assay samples (also including for historical drill programs) for the Chatsworth, Main Reef, Forio and Eastern Reef Prospects include:

Chatsworth Prospect

Herstecombe Prospect

3m at 1.79% Cu from 140m (TLC069)

TOLLU PROJECT

During the Quarter the Company undertook analysis of assay samples from the recently completed reverse circulation ("RC") drilling program (the Program) and also further analysis of historical samples from previous drill programs, primarily on the Chatsworth, Main Reef, Forio and Eastern Reef Prospects .

Analysis of the RC assay results include copper grades of up to 4.02%, which is consistent with work previously conducted on the Project area.

Aim of the Most Recent Drilling Program

The Company has identified a number of prospective targets for drilling at the Tollu Project, with the aim of the most recent RC drilling program being to target near surface hydrothermal copper (oxide and sulphide) mineralisation. The main activity concentrated on the known higher‐grade zones at the Chatsworth, Main Reef and Eastern Reef Prospects within the Tollu Project. The primary purpose was to validate the Tollu mineralised system.

Aim of Recent Assaying of Previous Drill Samples

Drill campaigns prior to 2015 concentrated on the known higher‐grade zones at the Chatsworth, Main Reef and Eastern Reef Prospects within the Tollu Project. The primary purpose of assaying the historical drill samples was to utilise all available data for geological understanding and potential contribution to the Tollu mineralised system.

FURTHER ASSAY RESULTS

Chatsworth Prospect

The Chatsworth Prospect is a single sub vertical hydrothermal body exposed at the surface. This Prospect forms part of the dilation system between two north south trending shears. The Chatsworth Prospect has been the main focus of much of the technical and drilling activity to date. Whilst the prospect appears to have been delineated along strike in the most recent round of drilling there still remains potential to infill the main mineralised zone above current deeper intersections and the ultimate depth continuity remains open (Figure 3). Further recent results are included in Table 1 below.

Forio Prospect

The Forio Prospect is a narrow outcropping quartz malachite vein exposed at the surface for over 500m of strike. Previous rock chip samples have returned up to 3.2% Cu. This Prospect is located 600m NE of the Chatsworth prospect running parallel to the main N‐S Tollu Fault. The mineralisation is significant in that it is located in a dilational zone to the north west of the Tollu Fault, which is in a different location to the previously discovered mineralisation. Its current strike length, which remains open to the south, is already longer than that seen at Chatsworth and is yet to be effectively drilled below 50m. Current results demonstrate some of the widest and strongest copper mineralisation discovered at these levels at the Project to date (Figure 5). Further key results are included in Table 2 below.
