Geological Setting

  • • The Otavi Mountain Land (OML) has a history of mining dating back to the mid-19th century when copper was first discovered in the region,
  • •It hosts a number of distinctive and 'high-value' mineral deposits including:
Tbsume @5M5C2%topper>>
Kbtoma @MC123%topper>>
BAkerguas @i3M17%Ztnc>>
  • • The OML is serviced by network of well maintained and high quality infrastructure,
  • • The Tsumeb Mine & Smelter Complex lies only 45 km to the north of the project area and is one of only five operating copper smelters in Africa

Sabre's OML Project Area

Prospects & Deposits within Sabre's Otavi Mountain Land Project

  • • Two EPLs cover over 800 km2,
  • • Four significant base-metal trends, including two copper-rich trends:
    • Kombat Cu-Ag Trend
    • Lucas Post Cu-Pb-V Trend
  • • Both copper trends cover more than 25km of strike and are highly mineralised,
  • • Sabre's exploration is now focused on the Kombat Copper Trend and the delineation of resources at theGuchab Mining Centre,
  • • Exploration continues to generate targets throughout the project area.

Kombat Copper Trend

  • • The Otavi Valley hosts the copper-rich Kombat Trend that takes in high-grade historical copper mines, including Kombat & Gross Otavi (excised), as well as Sabre's Guchab Mining Centre,
  • • Sabre's lease takes inover 40 km of copper-rich stratigraphy,
  • • Sabre's main focus in 2013 has been the exploration and delineation of resources at the Guchab Canyon.

Kombat East Target Area

explore extend extract

  • • Covers more than 10km of the Kombat Copper Trend,
  • • Includes the extensions to the KombatCopper Mine structure & stratigraphy,
  • • Hosts a number of high priority copper targets including:
    • Eisernenhut (reconnaissance drilling)
    • Guchab Canyon (resource drilling)
    • Schlangental (drill testing)
    • Rendezvous*(sampling)*
    • Nehlen*(evaluation)*
  • • The Company believes that this area hosts significant copper resources,
  • • Exploration focus on the Guchab Mining Centre.

Guchab Canyon - Drilling

  • • Outcropping, breccia hosted copper mineralisation in the Guchab Canyon:
    • •more than 400 m of strike,
    • •drilling continues.
  • • Recent drilling in the lower Guchab Canyon: GCDD0014 53.10m @ 1.23% Cu & 11.2 g/t Ag from Surface GCDD0015 51.85m @ 1.35% Cu & 15.5 g/t Ag from 0.3 metres GCDD0025 58.62m @ 1.38% Cu & 28.3 g/t Ag from 65.4 metres GCDD0045 21.86m @ 2.22% Cu & 44.6 g/t Ag from 183.0 metres GCDD004626.40m @ 2.44% Cu & 43.6 g/t Ag from 111.5 metres
  • • The exploration is now testing the strike extensions to mineralisation through the High Valley:

GCDD001118.85m @ 1.06% Cu & 15.05 g/t Ag from 42.2 metres

  • • Two diamond drill rigs now active targeting:
    • •near surface mineralisation (0-100 metres depth),
    • •mineralisation at depth (>100 metres depth).

Other Kombat East Targets

Schlangental

  • •Open pit workings in valley immediately west of Guchab,
  • •Initial sampling and drilling:

8.00 m @ 4.57% Cu & 55.88 g/t Ag (drill intercept) 42.00 m @ 3.58% Cu & 18.3 g/t Ag (channel) 15.00 m @ 4.21% Cu & 28.1 g/t Ag (channel)

• An evaluation of the drilling is underway in preparation for a follow up program.

Eisernenhut ('Iron Hat')

  • •Identified by SBR to the northeast of the Guchab Canyon,
  • • High-grade malachite-chalcocite-quartz stockwork in an ironsilica rich cap, on a prominent hill overlooking the Guchab Canyon,
  • •Outcrops on topographic high over 1900 m ASL,
  • • Reconnaissance drilling has been completed with results pending.

OML - Infrastructure

explore extend extract

A key attraction of the OML is its long history of mining, with the associated culture and processing infrastructure. This includes:

  • Tsumeb Copper Smelter (Dundee PM) – US$145 million upgrade in progress, including work to double capacity to process 240,000 tonnes of concentrates per annum.
  • Tsumeb Concentrator (Weatherly International) – on 'care & maintenance', largely intact 560,000 tonnes per annum circuit. Closed in 2008 due to low copper prices.
  • Kombat Concentrator (Kombat Copper) – detailed engineering review underway with a view to restarting the project. It is a 400,000 tonne per annum circuit, closed in 2008 due to low copper prices.
  • Rail – network of rail through region, from the port at Walvis Bay to Tsumeb & Grootfontein (with a dedicated siding at Guchab).
  • Roads– paved and 'made' gravel roads throughout region.
  • High Voltage Power - power throughout the OML region, sourced internally and from neighbouring countries including Zambia & South Africa.

OML – Leading the Renaissance

Sabre Resources

  • • is leading the renaissance of exploration in the region with an active and highly successful exploration program,
  • • holds an extensive ground position in the established Otavi Mountain Land copper province with outstanding infrastructure,
  • • recent exploration has resulted in the identification and drill testing of a number of targets within the Guchab Mining Centre,
  • • is progressing through resource delineation at Guchab Canyon, with a initial exploration target of:

5-10 million Tonnes @ 1-3% Copper & 10-30 gpt Silver*

*The potential quantity and grade of the Guchab deposits is conceptual in nature, as Sabre has determined that insufficient work has been undertaken to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a mineral resource. The 'exploration target' is based upon the success of the drilling program to date and the mapped extents of copper mineralisation in the Guchab Canyon.

• remains well funded and is focused on the evolution of the company's projects in Namibia.

Sabre Resources is a copper focused exploration company with a developing portfolio of base metal assets in the highly prospective Otavi Mountain Land of northern Namibia.
