QUARTERLY REPORT

Strike Resources Limited ("Strike" or "the Company") is pleased to present the Quarterly Report for the period ended 30 June 2015.

During the quarter, no activity was undertaken on the Company's iron ore projects in Peru as the Company continued to examine a range of new strategies for the Company in light of the poor outlook for the iron ore sector and the resources sector in general.

A number of non-core mineral concessions in Peru were allowed to lapse on 30 June 2015, significantly reducing the Company's annual expenditure in Peru. The Company continues to hold those core concessions in Peru which contain its JORC Resources of iron ore in Apurimac and Cusco, as well as some neighbouring concessions which have strategic value associated with the projects.

On 30th June 2015 the Company received an unsolicited off-market takeover bid by Bentley Capital Limited (ASX:BEL, "Bentley") ("the Offer").

The Company's independent directors (who are not associated with Bentley), being the Chairman, Mr Malcolm Richmond, Ms Samantha Tough and Mr Matthew Hammond ("Independent Directors") have formed a Takeover Response Committee to respond to the Offer.

The Company continues to conserve its cash resources, holding a balance of approximately $8.4 million in cash as of 30 June 2015.

Independent director Ms Samantha Tough has given notice that she intends to resign her position as a director at the conclusion of the Bentley bid.

About Strike Resources

Strike Resources (ASX: SRK) is an ASX resource company, owner of the high grade Apurimac magnetite project in Peru. Alongside Apurimac, Strike holds the Cusco Iron Ore Project, and an interest in the Cerro Ccopane project, both of which are also magnetite projects in Peru.

Strike retains significant cash reserves and is presently reviewing alternative options with regard to utilisation of these funds.

Quarterly Report for period ended 30 June 2015

Projects

Apurimac Iron Ore Project

Between 2006 and 2014, Strike's primary focus was on the development of its Apurimac magnetite project in Peru, recognised as one of the highest grade, large scale magnetite projects in the world with the potential to support the establishment of a significant iron ore operation.

Current adverse market conditions however have led the Company to suspend all development activities on this and its other iron ore projects in Peru.

Nevertheless, the nature of the Apurimac deposit and the development work undertaken to-date define this project as a potentially strategic asset in Peru which may, when market conditions improve, provide opportunity for the Company to recover value.

The exceptionally high grade 57% Fe is almost twice as high as magnetite deposits developed in Australia; ore bodies are coarse grained and soft, resulting in cheaper processing costs once in production.

A prefeasibility study completed in 2008 and updated in 2010 on the Apurimac Project indicated clear potential for development of a world class iron ore project:

  • JORC Resource of 269Mt of iron ore at Apurimac of 57.3% Fe (142 Mt Indicated at 57.84% Fe and 127 Mt Inferred at 56.7% Fe).
  • Mineralisation predominantly high-grade, coarse-grained magnetite providing comparatively high mass recoveries (>60%) at coarse grind size (>500 microns).
  • Excellent exploration potential within current concessions with several targets containing ironstones grading >60%Fe in similar geological settings to main Opaban concessions.
  • Base case of 20Mtpa of concentrate produced by open pit mining and processing 20 27Mtpa of ore with transport of the high grade (>66%Fe) product to the coast via a slurry pipeline for drying and shipment to customers.
  • Attractive life-of-mine operating expenses (2010) of US$ 17 20 per tonne of product.
  • Estimated capital expenditure (2010) of US$ 2.6 2.9 billion, competitive with other major iron ore projects at the time.

An initial drilling program at Apurimac established 269 Mt resources of high grade, coarse grained magnetite with an average grade of 57.3% iron. Of this, potentially 67 million of Direct Shipping Ore (DSO) at an average grade of 61.5% Fe has been identified.

Cusco

The Cusco project lies approximately 150km to the south - east of Apurimac and forms a potential secondary development target for the Company in Peru with an initial inferred resource estimate of 104Mt at 32.6% Fe.

Like Apurimac, iron ore mineralisation at the project is coarse grained and dominated by magnetite, with high grades recorded. Preliminary metallurgical tests indicate a concentrate grade of >65% Fe could be produced from this ore using conventional grinding and magnetic separation processes.

Cerro Ccopane (operated by Cuervo Resources Inc)1

The Cerro Ccopane project is located approximately 20km to the north of the company's Cusco project and was previously operated by Canadian listed company Cuervo Resources Inc ("Cuervo").

On December 11, 2013 Strike announced it had issued a demand notice for C$5,250,000 plus applicable interest to Cuervo in respect of the Investment Agreement between the two Companies, relating to the financing of the Cerro Ccopane project. The demand notice was issued following Strike's concerns regarding the solvency of Cuervo and events of default occurring under the current agreements between the companies.

Strike also issued a notice of its intention to enforce its security held over 90% of the shares of the Peruvian company holding the key assets of the project, if the full amount owed to Strike was not paid by December 16, 2013. To date no further action has been undertaken. Strike is aware that all of the Canadian directors of Cuervo have resigned and the company has been delisted from the Canadian Securities Exchange. Strike is examining its options to recover value as a secured creditor of Cuervo. In this regard, Strike has been advised that the legal and court costs of actively pursuing its claims in Canada and Peru could be considerable. In light of this and the fact that the recoverable value of the Cuervo assets in Peru is questionable under current market conditions, Strike is considering whether to actively pursue its claims.

JORC Code (2012) Competent Person Statement - Apurimac

The information in this document that relates to exploration results and mineral resources In respect of the Apurimac project has been compil ed by Mr Ken Hellsten, B.Sc. (Geology), who is a consultant to Strike Resources Ltd and is a Fellow of the Australasian Institut e of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Hellsten has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under considera tion and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the "Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves" (the JORC Code). Mr Hellsten consents to the inclusion in this document of the matters ba sed on this information in the form and context in which it appears.

JORC Code (2004) Competent Person Statement - Cuervo

The information in this document that relates to exploration results and mineral resources In respect of the Cuervo project h as been compiled by Mr Ken Hellsten, B.Sc. (Geology), who is a consultant to Strike Resources Ltd and is a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Hellsten has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under considera tion and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the "Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves" (the JORC Code). Mr Hellsten consents to the inclusion in this document of the matters ba sed on this information in the form and context in which it appears.

1 Strike has advanced Cuervo C$5.25M to fund the Stage 1 drilling and exploration program and, in return, was issued warrants that can be converted to 31.5% of Cuervo's shares on an undiluted basis, at C$0.30 per share. Strike holds a share pledge (similar to a share mortgage) over 90% of the shares in Cuervo's 100%-owned Peruvian subsidiary that, in turn, owns Cuervo's concessions. Upon Cuervo validly estimating a 500 Mt inferred resource across its Cerro Ccopane Project, this security is reduced so as to cover only 45% of those shares.

Appendix 1 – Apurimac and Cusco mineral resources

Apurimac

The Apurimac project has a JORC resource of 269.4 Mt, consisting of:

  • a 142.2 Mt Indicated Mineral Resource at 57.8% Fe; and
