DISCOVERY FOCUS: Airstrip and Dibete for primary and supergene Cu-Ag Maibele North for Ni-Cu-PGE primary mineralisation

MAGOGAPHATE COPPER SILVER PROJECT

==> picture [136 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

AIRSTRIP AND DIBETE CU-AG HIGHLIGHTS

Some significant results from C6 and C12 include: C6 Conductor

  • High grades of up to 22% Cu with 1023g/t Ag in narrow bornite veins (best 60% Cu and 2833 g/t Ag over narrow widths).

C12 Conductor

  • 6m @ 2.7% Cu plus 172g/t Ag from 68m from ACDC067 (includes 1m @ 8.8% Cu plus 214g/t Ag from 70m.

High grade Cu-Ag mineralisation is close to surface which will be mined by open pit methods. Upgrading of ROM ore maybe possible by heavy media techniques (e.g DMS) and this is currently being investigated.

11

AIRSTRIP COPPER

AIRSTRIP CU CONDUCTORS

Part of the IP Survey area (1x1.5km) at Airstrip Cu showing interpreted conductors in magenta.

Many conductors (total strike 1900 m in IP area) are barely drilled or not yet drilled, several vein systems discovered.

Discovery conductor C6 has a strike length of about 200 m and has mineralisation to 150m depth so far.

DRILL OUT C6 Initial drilling in Dec 2009- Jan 10 intersected the Airstrip Cu-Ag discovery in holes 3, 6, 7, 10 and 11 drilled on conductor C6. 76 holes have now been drilled to assess the various vein systems including C6 found in the wider Airstrip Copper Project area.

15

DIBETE

==> picture [136 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

DIBETE HIGHLIGHTS

  • Supergene mineralisation present with thicknesses to 38 metres at grades of 1.72% Cu and 119 g/t Ag.

  • Primary Cu-Ag targets identified from recent VTEM survey indicate potential over 3.5km strike length.

  • Controls on mineralisation indicated from drilling suggest a broader area of potential is present.

Structural targets associated with copper in soil geochemistry and possibly also with IP conductors are the priorities shown here. The geochem is limited in extent due to lack of sampling, as is the IP.

MAIBELE NORTH

==> picture [136 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

MAIBELE NORTH HIGHLIGHTS

  • Recent VTEM survey identified untested potential that was not optimally drilled in the past.

  • Current proposed drilling is focussed on defining resource to JORC compliant status.

  • Geostatistical study defined the scale of the Exploration Target and identified areas requiring additional drilling.

  • Extensions to the host to mineralisation identified.

The Maibele North host magnetic body is down faulted to the west by 150 metres and that part was not previously recognised or drilled. A further 600 metres of strike has been identified .

25

MAIBELE NORTH

==> picture [136 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

GEOSTATISTICS STUDY

An Exploration Target was defined on the basis of the geostatistical study (Hilmac Pty Ltd).

The Exploration Target is in the order of 1.1-1.7 million tonnes with a grade around 1% Ni at a cut off grade of 0.6% Ni, or alternately a target of 4-7 million tonnes with a grade around 0.6% Ni at a cut off grade of 0.3% Ni. No estimates have been made for PGE and Cu which are present in the deposit.

The potential quantity and grade at the Maibele North exploration targets are conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource according to the JORC Code (2004) and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the discovery of a Mineral Resource.

26

OTHER VTEM TARGETS

==> picture [136 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

PL 54/98 TAKANE HIGHLIGHTS

  • PL contains major prospects with good base metal-Au anomalies and Ni anomalies.

  • VTEM survey identified the 4 major previous prospects and a further 23 anomalies which have no prior evaluation.

  • No prior drilling on any of these prospects, follow up planning now complete and work is in progress

  • Major exploration focus in 2012 with potential new discoveries to confirm this belt as a major new province for BML and Botswana.

SUMMARY

==> picture [136 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

  • Recent drilling at Airstrip and Dibete has shown significant potential for primary copper silver and supergene copper silver deposits at both prospects (7 km apart). Resource estimate currently being prepared.

  • Further potential in newly recognised VTEM conductors at Maibele North is present. The geostatistics study showed up areas for further infill drilling to allow a JORC compliant resource estimate. Maibele North is only 50 km from Selibi Phikwe Ni smelter.

  • VTEM data interpretation is ongoing with extensive potential new and better defined targets identified.

  • All VTEM targets drilled so far have intersected sulphides. Results are pending.

  • BML now working to develop resources at its principal prospects.
