1. Background to the Acquisition of the Permits
On 15 November 2011, the Company announced that it had entered into a binding Letter Agreement with Golden Rim to acquire 100% of the Golden Rim’s right, title and interest in 5 prospective exploration permits in Burkina Faso. The 5 exploration permits which the Company will acquire pursuant to the Letter Agreement are the:
-
Galgouli South Permit;
-
Gonsin Permit;
-
Tagou Permit;
-
Moaga Permit;
-
Keri Permit;
(“ the Permits ”).
On 16 January 2012 the Company entered into a more detailed Formal Agreement with Golden Rim, as contemplated in the Letter Agreement, to replace and supercede the terms of the Letter Agreement (“ Formal Agreement ”). A summary of the material terms of the Formal Agreement is set out in section 2 below.
As announced on 15 November 2011, the Permits are highly prospective for the discovery of gold deposits and multiple drill targets have been identified within each Permit, with several Permits along strike from major gold deposits and operating gold mines.
Golden Rim’s right to acquire a 100% interest in each of the Permits is pursuant to the following legally binding agreements with the respective owners of the Permits (“ Permit Agreements ”):

Figure 1: Burkina Faso Permit locations
Galgouli South Permit
Galgouli South is located in southern Burkina Faso and covers an area of 250km[2] . The Permit lies approximately 330km to the south-west of the capital city, Ouagadougou and approximately 40km north-west of Ampella Mining Ltd’s 3.1Moz Au Konkera Deposit.
Galgouli South lies at the southern end of, and along the eastern margin of the northsouth trending Houndé greenstone belt. The Houndé greenstone belt hosts several major gold deposits.
A series of active and abandoned artisanal diggings have been observed throughout the Permit area along several north-south trending corridors. Artisanal miners are exploiting gold from quartz veins up to 4 metres wide.
Prior to the work commenced by Golden Rim in 2010, the Permit was unexplored. Since January 2011, Golden Rim has carried out field exploration over 4 prospect areas (Wewekera, Logolona, Logolona North and Ouatiano). Prospect areas are shown in Figure 2. Work to date has included litho-structural mapping, rock and soil sampling and orientation auger drilling.
Soil sampling covered a number of areas showing artisanal diggings or airborne magnetic anomalies. A total of 4,657 soil samples were collected along 200 metre x 50 metre grids and a total of 150 rock chip samples were collected during the soil survey (see Figure 2).
Most of the exploration to date has focused on the Wewekera prospect along the western boundary of the Permit. Geological mapping at Wewekera has outlined a diversified lithological sequence made up of mafic to intermediate volcano-plutonic units (gabbros, diorites, basalts, andesites), breccia sequences and sedimentary units (sandstones and cherts). These rocks have been intruded by a granitic complex.

Figure 2: Location of Galgouli South prospect areas and geochemical sampling over aeromagnetic image
At the Wewekera prospect, 3,519 soil samples[1] were collected with results highlighting significant gold-in-soil anomalism. Gold-in-soil results with peak values of 1.13g/t Au and 1.07g/t Au were obtained over an area of 1km x 0.5km (see Figure 3) which forms part of a 2.5km x 0.5km NE-SW trending area anomalous in gold (see Figure 4).
From the 3,519 soil samples collected 1,919 samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.001g/t Au (the lower limit of detection) and 10% of the samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.01g/t Au (ten times the lower limit of detection).
1 Soil samples weighing approximately 2kg were collected from the base of a small pit, hand dug to a depth of approximately 0.5 metres. All of the material was crushed to -3mm then split into 2 equal portions at an independent laboratory. One of the sample portions was pulverised to >95% having a particle size of <75 microns prior to BLEG (bulk leach extractable gold) analysis via 12 hour bottle roll tests and gold content determination by Flame A.A.S.
6
From the 130 rocks chip samples[2] collected at the Wewekera prospect, the peak values of 2.39g/t Au and 1.05g/t Au coincide with the gold-in-soil anomaly. Ninety nine of the 130 rock chip samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.005g/t Au (the lower limit of detection) and 10% of the samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.09g/t Au (18 times the lower limit of detection).

Figure 3: Wewekera Prospect - Location of gold-in-soil anomalies and rock chip gold results
2 Rock chip samples were submitted to an independent laboratory for sample preparation to produce a product conforming to >95% of the pulverised product having a particle size of <75 microns. Analysis for gold was facilitated by fire assay using 50gm of prepared sample material and gold concentration determined by Flame A.A.S.
7
The main area of gold anomalism at Wewekera occurs on the eastern edge of a small magnetic high anomaly near the contact of greenstone and intrusive units. The anomaly lies between two WNW-trending interpreted structures which form part of a fault splay system which runs eastward into Ampella’s permits. One of these major faults is interpreted to be a splay off the shear zone that hosts the Konkera deposit ([3] Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources of 61.8Mt @ 1.6 g/t for 3.1M oz of gold, at a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t Au) .
Orientation power auger drilling using a 200m x 50m grid has been carried out at Wewekera to check two soil anomalies (Figure 3). A total of 180 auger holes with a cumulative 852m were completed. Auger results were lower than the soil gold results but still outline a discrete gold anomalous trend coincident with the soil anomaly. The lower results in the auger drilling may be due to the remobilization of gold, the thick weathering profile with elevated gold concentrations in the ferricrete crust, and depleted levels of gold in the underlying saprolite.

Gonsin Permit
Gonsin is located in the central northern part of Burkina Faso, approximately 110km north-west of Ouagadougou. The Permit has an area of 239.5km[2] and is located along strike from the 0.6M oz Kalsaka gold mine, operated by Cluff Gold plc (see Figure 5).
Gonsin lies on a north-east trending belt of Birimian volcano-sedimentary rocks. On the surrounding properties held by Cluff, the operating Kalsaka gold mine is hosted by ENEWSW striking shear zones which can be traced through the Gonsin Permit before they converge with the Sabce Fault Zone. The Sabce Fault Zone is a major gold mineralised, regional fault or structural zone which hosts High River Gold’s 1.7M oz Au Bissa Hill Deposit, located 50km to the east of Kalsaka.
To date, the only area which has been explored by Golden Rim is a 4km[2 ] area immediately surrounding artisanal gold mining workings at the Kougtanga prospect (see Figure 5). Gold mineralisation observed at Kougtanga consists of multiple auriferous quartz/pyrite veins and artisanal mining is developed on two parallel quartz vein systems up to 2 metres wide and associated vein stockworks to depths of approximately 30 metres.
==> picture [415 x 285] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 5: Location of gold-in-soil anomalies, rock chip gold and RC drilling results over aeromagnetic image - Kougtanga prospect
Initial exploration activities included soil sampling (451 samples), rock chip sampling (70 samples), basic geological mapping and 1,686 metres of reverse circulation drilling (20 holes) which returned narrow gold intercepts up to 2.23g/t Au.
The soil sampling results defined a number of discontinuous anomalies trending NE-SW for up to 2.3km with a peak value of 7.04g/t Au.
9
From the 451 soil samples collected 423 samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.001g/t Au (the lower limit of detection) and 10% of the samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.018g/t Au (eighteen times the lower limit of detection).
Rock chip samples were collected primarily from around artisanal workings with a peak value of 6.08 g/t Au.
Fifty one of the 70 rock chip samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.005g/t Au (the lower limit of detection) and 10% of the samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.46g/t Au (92 times the lower limit of detection).
A RC drilling programme was completed prior to the onset of rains in June 2010. The aim of the drilling programme was to test two parallel quartz vein systems that hosted artisanal workings along the strike of the vein system. A total of 20 RC holes were drilled for an aggregate of 1,686 metres.
Holes were drilled either at an azimuth of 120-130 degrees or 300 degrees at a dip of 50 degrees. The deepest hole was 94m. Four parallel fences of holes were completed.
The best intercepts are:
4m @ 0.54 g/t gold from 76m in GKRC 002 (quartz vein). 1m @ 2.23 g/t gold from 2m in GKRC 013 (tuff unit). 1m @ 1.81 g/t gold from 24m in GKRC 011 (tuff unit). 1m @ 0.81 g/t gold from 54m in GKRC 017 (quartz vein). 1m @ 0.58 g/t gold from 47m in GKRC 018 (sediments).
From the total of 1,685 RC samples[4] collected 879 samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.005g/t Au (the lower limit of detection) and 10% of the samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.03g/t Au (six times the lower limit of detection) with a maximum value of 2.23g/t Au.
The remainder of the Permit area is yet to be visited.
Tagou Permit
Tagou covers an area of 205.5km[2 ] and is located in south-east Burkina Faso, approximately 250km south-east of Ouagadougou. The Tagou Permit lies along the north-east trending Fada greenstone belt in a similar geological setting as that hosting Mount Isa Metals’ high-grade Nabanga gold discovery, located 30km to the south.
Artisanal diggings have been observed throughout the Permit area in diverse geological settings. Gold mineralisation exists in quartz-sulphide veins, siliceous pegmatites and sulphide-magnetite-bearing conglomerates. Veins up to 20 metres in width are present with at least 3 mineralised trends identified to date.
At Tagou, geological mapping has been completed in conjunction with reconnaissance rock chip sampling (133 samples), returning excellent assay results with peak values of 65.5g/t Au, 28.0g/t Au and 14.3g/t Au. Subsequent, selective soil sampling (1,545 samples) completed over five prospective target areas outlined significant gold-in-soil anomalism with values up to 0.3g/t Au (see Figure 6).
From the 133 rocks chip samples collected 59 samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.005g/t Au (the lower limit of detection) and 10% of the 59 samples returned values greater than or equal to 1.03g/t Au (206 times the lower limit of detection).
From the 1,545 soil samples collected 908 samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.001g/t Au (the lower limit of detection) and 10% of the samples returned values greater than or equal to 0.01g/t Au (ten times the lower limit of detection).
4 RC drilling samples were submitted to an independent laboratory for sample preparation to produce a product conforming to >95% of the pulverised product having a particle size of <75 microns. Analysis for gold was facilitated by fire assay using 50gm of prepared sample material and gold concentration determined by Flame A.A.S.

An interpretation of regional airborne magnetic data suggests there may be a plus 10 kilometre wide, north-east trending structural corridor characterised by multiple-parallel faults that bisects the Permit area over a strike distance of approximately 10 kilometres.
Moaga Permit
Moaga covers an area of 242km[2] and is located in south-east Burkina Faso, 220 km from Ouagadougou on the north-east trending Tenkodogo greenstone belt. A major regional structure, the Youga Shear, passes through the Permit area and this structure hosts Endeavour Mining Corporation’s 1.1M oz Youga gold deposits, 60km along strike to the south-west. The Youga Shear is a splay structure related to the Markoye Fault, a structure which is interpreted to control a number of multi-million ounce gold deposits in Burkina Faso.
The geology at Moaga is dominated by mafic to intermediate volcanics and sediments which have been interrupted by a series of gabbro, diorite, granodiorite and granite intrusives.
11
During 2011, field activities at Moaga included geological mapping and cursory reconnaissance rock chip sampling, however, as yet no systematic geochemical sampling has been conducted.
Keri Permit
Keri covers an area of 139km[2] and is situated in north-east Burkina Faso along the border with Niger, approximately 365km to the north-east of Ouagadougou. Keri covers part of the north-east trending Sebba greenstone belt and a major shear splay related to the regional Markoye Fault system.
In the western portion of the Keri Permit the geology is dominated by a north-east trending belt of volcano-sedimentary rocks and in the east by a sequence of granitoids. The volcano-sedimentary sequence is intruded by a number of mafic and felsic units which are generally oriented northeast-southwest and the structural architecture of the Permit is dominated by major northeast-southwest trending faults that appear to define the boundaries of the volcano-sedimentary package. Significant north-west trending cross structures can be identified in the regional magnetic data, cutting the granitic sequence in the east.
Mineralisation identified to date at Keri is related to gold-bearing quartz veins. A number of major artisanal mining sites have been located within the Permit area where sulphidic and manganiferous quartz veins are being exploited. The most extensive artisanal workings observed are developed on a sheeted quartz vein system which is exposed over a strike length of 400 metres.
In April 2011 a detailed airborne magnetic/radiometric survey was flown over Keri with subsequent interpretation identifying several major zones of faulting, offering prospective target areas for exploration. Notwithstanding, only limited field work has been carried out at Keri, focused on geological mapping and rock chip sampling. No systematic geochemical sampling has yet been conducted.

5. Resolution 1 - Issue of the Consideration Shares to Golden Rim
Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution which seeks approval for the issue of the Consideration Shares to Golden Rim.
Listing Rule 7.1 provides that (subject to certain exceptions, none of which are relevant here) prior approval of Shareholders is required for an issue of securities if the securities will, when aggregated with the securities issued by the Company during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of Shares on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
The effect of Resolution 1 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Consideration Shares pursuant to Resolution 1 without using the Company’s 15% annual capacity. Listing Rule 7.3 requires that certain information accompany the Notice of General Meeting in relation to an approval under Listing Rule 7.1. This information is set out below:
(a) The name of the allottee of the securities
The allottee is Golden Rim Resources Limited.
14
(b) The maximum number of securities to be issued
The maximum number of securities to be issued pursuant to Resolution 1 is 12,500,000 Shares.
(c) The date of allotment and issue of securities
The Shares to be issued pursuant to Resolution 1 will be allotted and issued to Golden Rim no later than three (3) months after the date of the General Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules).
(d) The issue price of the securities
There is no issue price payable for the Consideration Shares issued under Resolution 1, as the Consideration Shares will be issued as part consideration for the acquisition of Golden Rim’s interest in the Permits in accordance with the Formal Agreement.
(e) The terms of the securities
The Consideration Shares to be issued will rank equally on allotment and issue with the existing Shares of the Company. The Consideration Shares will be escrowed for 12 months from issue.
