QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT MARCH 2014

New project review and Evaluation

During the quarter Black Ridge Mining NL (ASX: BRD or "the Company") continued to assess and evaluate various projects located in Australia. Data was acquired for a number of projects and reviewed, various options are being considered.

Unaly Hill (E57/420), Western Australia – Vanadium, Magnetite, Gold

During the quarter the company has continued to investigate opportunities to maximise on its return given the Unaly Hill project already hosts substantial tonnages of Vanadium, Magnetite and Titanium.

Vanadium is a "miracle metal" which is used in metal alloys with iron to produce high strength steel which has a wide range of uses including structural application such as gas and oil pipelines, tool steel, the manufacture of axles and crankshafts for the motor vehicle industry and in jet engines for aircraft industry as well as for the reinforcing bars in building and construction.

Non steel uses include welding and in alloys used in nuclear engineering and superconductors

Vanadium chemicals and catalysts are used in the manufacture of sulphuric acid, the desulphurisation sour gas and oil and in the development of fuel cells and low charge time, light weight batteries.

The company presently has access to loan funding of up to $500,000 on which it has not drawn and a further $100,000 facility that is being drawn on to meet required expenditure for the short term. The company is continuing discussions with a stock broking firm
