Vulcan IOCGU Discovery

  • Tasman discovery 2009- 8 holes drilled to date

  • Similar target area to OD > 12 km[2]

  • IOCGU min./alt. in all 8 holes - Cu, Au, Ag, U, Mo (+ REE)

  • 57 m of strong chalcopyrite/pyrite - VUD 3

  • +160m “classic” min. hematite-rich breccias - VUD 7

  • Classic zoning (bornite/chalcopyrite/pyrite) - VUD 8

  • Re – Os dating of MoS2 confirms age at 1590 Ma (equivalent to other IOCGU deposits)

MoS 2 (grey) in VUD 001

  • MoS 2 (molybdenite)

  • widespread at Vulcan - ideal for direct dating of mineralisation

  • -

  • 4 samples from 3 holes average age 1590 Ma

  • 1590 Ma consistent with age of Olympic Dam, Prominent Hill and Carrapateena

  • Program for Accelerating Exploration, funded by SA Government

13

Rio Tinto Exploration (RTX) Farm-in/JVA (Unconditional)

  • EL 4322 only (includes Vulcan Project Area)

  • Aboriginal heritage clearance obtained August 2012

  • Farm-in/JVA Unconditional

  • First $10m paid by RTX to Tasman

  • Tasman to drill 12,000m (est. $5m) start- Sept 2012- 1 year

  • RTX may pay TAS $7m & spend $25m on exploration for 55%

  • If TAS dilutes, RTX may spend $50m for further 25% (ie 80%)

  • TAS may then contribute or require RTX to buy TAS share (20%)
