MABILO PROJECT

Background

The Mabilo Project is located in Camarines Norte Province, Eastern Luzon, Philippines. It is comprised of one granted Exploration Permit (EP-014-2013-V) of approximately 498 ha and one Exploration Permit Application (EXPA-000188-V) of 2,820 ha. The Project area is relatively flat and is easily accessed by 15 km of allweather road from the highway at the nearby town of Labo.

Massive magnetite mineralisation containing significant copper and gold grades occurs as replacement bodies together with mineralized garnet skarn and calcsilicate altered rocks within a sequence of hornfelsed sediments of the Eocene aged Tumbaga Formation. The garnet and magnetite skarn rocks were extensively altered by argillic retrograde alteration and weathering prior to being covered by 25-60 metres of post mineralisation Quaternary volcaniclastics (tuff and lahar deposits) of the Mt Labo Volcanic Complex. The deposits are localised along the margins of a diorite stock which does not outcrop within the Exploration Permit.

The primary copper mineralisation (predominantly chalcopyrite with lesser bornite) occurs as disseminated blebs and aggregates interstitial to magnetite grains and in voids within the magnetite. A strong correlation between gold and copper values in the un-weathered magnetite skarn indicates the gold is hosted by the chalcopyrite. A late stage phase of sulphide mineralisation (predominantly pyrite) veins and locally brecciates the magnetite mineralisation.

Page 2 of 30

In places the more shallow upper parts of the magnetite skarn bodies were weathered to form hematite skarn. Copper in the weathered zone was remobilised forming high-grade supergene copper zones (chalcocite and native copper) at the base of the weathering profile. The gold was more variable, remobilised throughout the hematite skarn and is domained within garnet skarn and calc-silicate altered country rocks in places. The average iron grade of the hematite skarn is consistent with the magnetite skarn.

Sierra discovered the mineralisation in 2012 during a reconnaissance drilling program targeted on magnetic anomalies from a ground magnetic survey conducted by a former explorer. Sierra subsequently conducted a new ground magnetic survey in early 2013, remodeled the data and commenced a second phase of drilling in mid 2013.

The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, and there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. Drilling is ongoing and eighty one diamond drill holes have been completed at the end of the Quarter with further drilling ongoing.

South Body

Drilling focused on the South Mineralised Zone, further extending strike towards the north and defining limits to the oxide mineralisation and continuing to define down dip extents of the system. Drilling continues to validate and extend the geology model with identification of the shallow gold rich copper depleted zone from the overburden contact. The chalcocite copper zone at the northern end of the South Mineralised Zone was further extended with follow up drilling.

The magnetic modeled body is approximately 340 meters long. Recent drilling has extended the total strike length of the South Mineralized Zone to approximately 400 meters and remains open to the south and north.

A number of more recent drill holes pending analysis, have confirmed the mineral system extends down dip by more than 200 meters in the SW direction. With infill drilling targeting the area above the deepest intercept drilled to date MDH-046 (ASX release by Sierra Mining 13[th] May 2014). Additional infill drill holes targeting the oxide parts of the system are also awaiting assay.

Significant intersections returned from the South Mineralised Zone during the Quarter are summarized below and the hole locations are shown in (Figure 3). A full list of drilling undertaken during the quarter is reported in Appendix 1.

MDH-060

An inclined hole drilled to test the down dip extent of MDH-057 (Figure 4). Drilling intersected magnetite skarn from 182.10 meters to 235.20 meters. Higher grade intervals are characterised by coarse grained chalcopyrite inter-grown with magnetite weakly overprinted by silica pyrite. True thickness of magnetite skarn in this part of the system is approximately ~32 meters.

MDH073

An inclined hole located approximately twenty meters northwest of previously drilled MDH066 reported on (ASX release by RTG Mining 13th August 2014) and at the northern limit of the magnetic model. The drill hole (Figure 8) intersected an oxide gold rich zone at shallow depth from the Labo Volcanics overburden contact at down hole 38.95 meters to 55.60 meters followed by a massive chalcocite copper zone from 61.90 meters to 81.00 meters. The two intervals of gold oxide zone and chalcocite copper zone are separated by a narrow clay zone, with a combined down hole interval of 48.15 meters. True thickness has not been determined due to insufficient drilling on section.

Documentation was submitted late in the quarter to the local authorities to start the Oxide Mining permitting process.

Work continued towards the finalisation of the maiden geological resource which is due for release in early November.

Samples for metallurgical test work associated with the primary feasibility study were submitted to ALS Laboratories in Perth during the quarter. The samples will be used for Phase 1 analysis, with the results being used for process flow determinations. Further work also continued on environment, community and infrastructure.

OTHER PROJECTS

With the granting of the Exploration Permit for Bunawan in August, we have commenced implementation of a scout drilling program which will begin in the December Quarter. It is proposed to drill approximately 3,500m of diamond core as an initial reconnaissance program. By the end of the Quarter work had commenced on the drilling contract, a local geologist had been employed and work had started on preparing the drill pads.

CORPORATE

As at 30 September 2014, RTG had cash and liquid assets of US$8.588M (June quarter: US$10.68M). The Quarter was focused on the integration of Sierra Mining Limited (“Sierrra”), with the introduction of a new geologist, Mr Bob Ayres who has now reviewed all previous drilling activity at Mabilo and developed a strong structural understanding of the Mabilo ore body. The focus has also moved from an exploration to a development project, with an emphasis placed on progressing feasibility work to assist with the permitting process.

We have been working closely with the joint venture partner at the Mabilo Project and have made significant progress with both the preparation of an initial resource and permitting for the development of the Mabilo Project.

In parallel with these efforts, given our established network and credentials in country, we were able to secure the issue of the Bunawan exploration permit which Sierra had been working on for some period of time.
