Why base metals?
- •Presently tight markets, high prices
- • Upcoming production will not meet demand in 2-3 years time
- • An excellent opportunity for ground-level entry into the base metals sector

Zinc
- • 2007 likely to be "high water mark" with new supply coming on stream
- • Shortfalls in 2009-2011, tight, bullish market
- • LME warehouse stocks at historically low levels

*sources – Macquarie (August 2007), Kitco (November 2007)

Lead
- •Ongoing tight market
- •Limited new supply in 2008
- • Market to follow zinc, tightening again in 2010 and 2011

*sources – Macquarie (August 2007), Kitco (November 2007)

Copper
- •Demand driven by China
- •Supply issues tight, ongoing
- • Forecast demand to outstrip supply by 2009

- •Source: ResourceStocks magazine, Sept 2007


History
- • 1960s and 1970s – regional soil sampling uncovered numerous anomalies, including Border, Driehoek, and Harasib deposits
- • 1970s – Etosha Petroleum Ltd drilled Border, with intercepts including:
- •18.90m @ 11.18% Pb+Zn (B002, from 80.47m)
- •11.00m @ 15.92% Pb+Zn (B016, from 87.17m)
- • 1990s – Goldfields of Namibia Ltd drilled Driehoek, Harasib
- •40.00m@ 8.57% Pb+Zn (DDH 75-18, from 1.00m, Driehoek)
- •Drilling less than 60m depth
- • August 2007 –SABRE acquires the Ongava Project

Otavi Triangle – Historical Production
- •Tsumeb 30 Mt @ 10%Pb, 4.3% Cu, 3.5% Zn. & 100g/t Ag (Mined)
- •Kombat 8.7 Mt @ 3.1% Cu, 1.1% Pb, & 26g/t Ag (Mined)
- • Abenab 1.85 Mt (Conc.) @ 17.04% V 2O5(Mined & Concentrated)
- • Berg Aukas 3.2 Mt @ 16% Zn, 4% Pb, & 0.75% V 2O5(Mined & In Situ)
- •Khusib Springs 0.5 Mt @ 10% Cu, 1.8% Pb, & 584g/t Ag (Mined)



Mineralisation overview
- • 2 types
- –Berg Aukas style Pb-Zn-V
- –Tsumeb style Cu-Pb-Zn
- • First exploration focus is the Berg Aukas style
- walk-up drill targets
- considered to be "Mississippi Valley Type" (MVT).
- a major source of Pb-Zn-Ag supply
- • Apparent lateral continuity suggests Mount Isa or Irish-style affinities.
- generally larger than MVT
- •Strong geochemical anomalies throughout tested areas.
- •Few anomalies drill-tested, none rigorously.

•
•
•
Key data acquisition
- • Several $millions worth of previous exploration
- Geophysics Satellite imagery
- Drill hole database •Soil sampling database

Border
-
- 12Mt @ 5-6% Pb+Zn (expl target)
-
- 18 diamond drill holes
-
- Pb-Zn intersected 50m below surface
-
- Pb & Zn grades increase with depth

THE GNAMMA DAM NICKEL PROJECT



Gnamma Dam Nickel
- •Highly prospective ground
- • 20km from Kalgoorlie, 5 km from Heron's Bulongproject
- • 14 prospecting licences (20km2)
- • Surprisingly little previous Ni exploration


Gnamma Dam Nickel
- • Possible repetition of the Bulong sequence
- • Sabre's soil sampling defines strong Ni anomalies
- • Field review completed in preparation for drilling.



Summary
- • Both the Ongava and Gnamma Dam projects are highly prospective for base metal mineralisation
- • Systematic use of modern methods will be used to assess the deposits/prospects
- •Strong management team
- •Experienced exploration group with history of success
- •Drilling underway first quarter 2008
