Value Proposition
----- End of picture text -----

Well Funded, with $20.6 million in cash, securities and deferred payments post finalisation of the Reward project sale Independent Research has valued the Company at $47 million, more than twice its current market value and share price Outstanding nickel-gold assets located in the world’s #1* jurisdiction WA Rox has a strong exploration track record at its nickel and gold projects Now with funding well secured for the foreseeable future, Rox’s management can do what they do best – explore and make discoveries

Low technical risk project :

o Toll milling – truck ore to nearby plant (e.g. Nickel West at Leinster)

o Build a plant (e.g. 600,000 tpa) – truck concentrate for sale

Box cuts with separate declines to underground mines ~100m depth to sulphides

Standard underground mining techniques and costs (A$130/t)

Metallurgical recoveries, 80 – 99%, and saleable concentrate grades, 10 - 14% Ni, acceptable Fe:MgO ratios, low As (no penalties)

Straight forward process flow sheet and logistics Increased resources will increase project value

Obvious relationship between EV/t Ni and Ni grade

RXL seems to be fairly valued at ~$21m against peers based on grade of nickel resource Reward Sale proceeds have an NPV ~$19m

Rox’s market cap should be $40m, without any exploration upside factored in (i.e. increase in nickel resources, new nickel or gold discoveries) Independent research has valued Rox at $47m, or 3.8 cents/share

Bubble size relates to amount of contained nickel

Forward Strategy
----- End of picture text -----

  • Nickel

Leverage for an improved price – be ready when the price is right

Fisher East: Continue to explore and grow the resources – drilling & development studies Collurabbie: Complete data review and then make some discoveries - drilling

  • Zinc

Complete the sale of Reward and receive significant cash (NPV $18.4 million)

Gold

$10M JV with Doray at Mt Fisher – minimum of $1 million to be spent in next 12 months - drilling

  • Explore gold potential at Collurabbie - drilling

  • Copper

Add value through further exploration or divestment
