EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

$\mathbf{1}$ . Introduction

This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared for the information of Shareholders of the Company in connection with the business to be conducted at the AGM to be held at the Celtic Club, 48 Ord Street, West Perth, Western Australia on 12 November 2003 at 9:30 am.

The purpose of this Explanatory Memorandum is to provide information which the Board of Directors believe material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolution set out in the Notice of Annual General Meeting.

BACKGROUND TO RESOLUTION

Re-election of Neil G Biddle as a Director

Article 17.1(a) of the Constitution requires that if the Company has three or more Directors, one third of those Directors must retire at each AGM.

The Company currently has three Directors and accordingly one must retire.

The Constitution provides that a Director who retires under Article 17.1(a) is eligible for re-election.

Pursuant to these Articles Neil G Biddle will retire by rotation and seeks re-election.

Mr Biddle is a geologist and company director with over 16 years professional and management experience in listed public companies involved in mining and exploration, and was formerly managing director of Border Gold Ltd (1995-1999) and Consolidated Victorian Mines NL (1991-1995).

He has been a Director of the Company since 1998, and is also a Director of Batavia Mining Limited.

The Board fully supports the re-election of Neil G Biddle.
