1.0 Summary of June Quarter 2012 Activities

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • An updated Kangaluwi Mineral Resource ( the “Resource”) now comprises 45 Mt @ 0.67% Cu, representing a 50% increase over a 2010 Mineral Resource of 23 Mt @ 0.85% Cu, both at a 0.3% Cu cut-off grade.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Mineral Resource estimate reported at 0.1% Cu cut-off now stands at 67 Mt @ 0.52% Cu.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The resource is estimated at 300,000 t of copper metal versus a 2010 Mineral Resource which reported 200,000 t of copper metal.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The resource extends to 200 m below surface, while the mineralisation remains open at depth and along strike, comprising just 25% of the known 28 km strike length.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The resource comprises the 100% owned Kangaluwi, Chisawa and Kalulu deposits.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The resource includes approximately 7 Mt of oxide and transitional material @ 0.7% Cu around which a prospective Stage 1 oxide heap leach project will be scoped.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Opportunity exists for a lower risk start up project with oxide based production by 2014. The sulphide project containing the bulk of the resource would encompass a Stage 2 flotation operation.

2.1 Project Background

Zambezi Resources Limited is an ASX listed Copper Exploration and Development Company, focussed on its 100% owned Kangaluwi Copper Project, 180 km east of Lusaka. The project is covered by a 245 km[2] Mining Licence area ML 15547, issued on 16 March 2011 and valid for 25 years. The project covers the high quality copper deposits of Kangaluwi, Chisawa and Kalulu.

Numerous geophysical targets in the project area are yet to be evaluated, with only one quarter of the 28 km strike length drill tested to date.

Current Mineral Resource estimate for the Project comprises 45 Mt @ 0.67% Cu for a 300 kt contained copper from the Kangaluwi, Chisawa and Kalulu deposits at a 0.3% Cu cut-off grade.

3.0 Resource Upgrade

The updated Mineral Resource estimate at the Kangaluwi Copper Project ( “KCP” ) has been completed by AMC Consultants Pty Ltd (“ AMC ”), in accordance with the guidelines of the 2004 Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. An updated Mineral Resource estimate was developed using 412 holes, drilled for a combined length of 74,164 m.

During the first half of the year, the Company completed an extensive QA/QC validation process of all historical and 2011 drilling, as a basis for JORC compliant estimation and reporting, which included:

==> picture [10 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

an additional umpire QA/QC analytical program;

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • a re-survey of all drill hole collar co-ordinates with high precision DGPS instrumentation;

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • cross-referencing of paper drill hole records, electronic drill hole records, drill hole databases and analytical assay data used in the updated resource estimates;

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • an update of surface digital terrain model (DTM) using high precision DGPS instrumentation of all three prospect areas.

AMC considers that the data spacing, data quality and geological interpretation are appropriate for classification of the Kangaluwi, Chisawa and Kalulu Deposit estimates as Indicated or Inferred Mineral Resources (Table 2).

4.2 Scoping Study of the Kangaluwi Oxide Copper Project (“KOCP”)

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Company is evaluating an initial (Stage 1), 5 year oxide copper project to produce approximately 30,000 t of copper cathode, using standard acid heap leach, and SX/EW technology.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Metallurgical test work to date shows high copper recoveries with normal acid consumption, with definitive reporting to be finalised by Q4 2012.

==> picture [11 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

  • An RC drilling program will complete a KOCP Scoping Study by Q4 2012, followed by a feasibility study in 2013, with plant construction ideally commencing soon thereafter.

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Cash flow from the KOCP will fund additional resource drilling to increase the sulphide copper resource, as well as support feasibility studies for the development of the Sulphide Copper Project (Stage 2).

4.3 Exploration Potential

During the quarter, analysis of historical Zambezi Resources exploration data identified anomalous results from shallow RC drilling and surface trenches associated with the Chisawa-Imboo surface geochemistry anomaly, depicted in Figure 3.

Results include:

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

IMBRC0004 22 m @ 0.18% tCu from 2 m down hole

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

IMBRC0003 7 m @ 0.17% tCu from 60 m down hole

Of particular significance are assays from a surface trench (CHKSSTR0003), which include anomalous gold (0.18 g/t Au) and copper (3.2% tCu) samples, both of which will require further investigation. Meanwhile, evaluation of unexplored sections of ZRL leases, which total over 28 km in length, is continuing.

5.0 Multi-Element Analysis

Assay results received from the re-sampling (2011) of diamond core have identified anomalous, silver, lead, and zinc grades in zones marginal to the main copper mineralisation.

Results to date also confirm lenses of lower grade peripheral copper enrichment, surrounding each of the three known deposits.

Anomalous silver, lead, and zinc occurrences are currently being evaluated and ranked for prospective drilling. Significant intersections are tabulated herewith:
