INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS

This information is a selective overview only. Investors should read the Prospectus in full, including the experts' reports in this Prospectus before deciding whether to invest in Shares.

  • Radar Iron Ltd (Radar) is a an Australian company incorporated on 21st of September 2010 to explore for iron ore minerals in a prospective area in the Central Yilgarn region of Western Australia.
  • Radar has entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of the shares in Radar Resources Pty Ltd (the entity with the interests in the Tenements) from Transit Holdings (refer to Section 10.1 of this Prospectus). The agreement (and consequently the Offer) is conditional on approval being obtained from the shareholders in Transit Holdings at a general meeting to be held on 26 November 2010. The Tenements cover 6 granted exploration licences, 2 granted prospecting licenses, 2 exploration licence applications (only one of which can be granted) and 3 prospecting licence applications covering approximately 290km2 (refer to Section 9 of this Prospectus).
  • The granted Tenements comprise iron ore rights to approximately 270km2 of ground with a further 20km2 under application. Three project areas have been defined as:
  • Johnston Range/Copper Bore;
  • Evanston; and
  • Die Hardy.
  • The Yilgarn Iron Ore Province is rapidly gaining recognition as one of Western Australia's most exciting new iron ore provinces with significant new resources being recently identified. Mining of direct shipping ore (DSO) is currently being undertaken at three locations owned by another company in the area and at least two new mines are planned for 2011.
  • The Tenement holding has had limited previous exploration despite over 40km strike length of prospective banded iron formation. Recent geophysical interpretation of gravity and magnetic data and follow up field inspection has identified a number of ready to drill targets of both hematite and magnetite mineralisation. Drilling is planned to start immediately following the Company listing on ASX.
  • A strong focussed Board and experienced management team in exploration, mining, and finance is in place. The appointment of Jonathan Lea as Managing Director with over 25 years experience in mining and exploration with extensive recent experience in the district will help facilitate the drive to commence rapid and effective assessment of the iron ore assets.

CO NDITIONAL OFFER

The Offer is conditional on the shareholders in Transit Holdings approving the sale of Radar Resources Pty Ltd to the Company in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.4 at a general meeting of shareholders to be held on 26 November 2010 (or any adjournment of that meeting).

If this condition is not satisfied within 4 months of the date of this Prospectus, the Offer will not proceed and all application monies will be returned to Applicants (without interest).

INVESTMENT RISKS

Mineral exploration, development and mining are high risk enterprises and only occasionally provide high rewards. Potential investors should consider an investment in Radar Iron as speculative.

Some of the key risks associated with an investment in Radar Iron are summarised in the following table. This list of risks is not exhaustive. Full details of the risks tabled below are set out in Section 11 of this Prospectus. The occurrence of any of the risks or events outlined below could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's operations and, in turn, the price at which its Shares trade on ASX.

Risk area Risks Reference

  • Infrastructure Risk Iron ore development is largely dependent on access to major infrastructure to enable the export of the bulk commodity. Any development on Radar Iron's tenements will require road and rail haulage and a port with capacity. Haul roads can generally be constructed through a defined approval process. The rail line to the south of the Tenements is publically accessible, subject to capacity constraints that can generally be overcome by increasing passing bays or upgrading the axle weight capacity of the line. Improvements such as these would most likely require a capital contribution from Radar Iron. Iron ore from other companies in the region, is currently exported through Esperance and is planned to commence from Kwinana (Fremantle Port) in 2011. There is limited capacity for new exporters to access these ports at present without a major capital and capacity upgrade. While there are plans to increase the capacity and hence availability to new bulk commodity exporters at both ports, there is no certainty of these progressing nor on the timing of any such development. Any upgrade is likely to be keenly sought by other potential producers, so even with an increase in capacity there is no certainty of allocation to Radar Iron. 11.2.1
  • Environmental Risks The Evanston and Die Hardy Projects lie inside existing conservation parks or proposed conservation and mining reserves. Both forms of tenure currently permit exploration and mining activity subject to the normal approval processes. The current proposed park boundaries were announced by the WA State Government on 1 September 2010 after a comprehensive review. The previous Government had a different approach and, had they remained in Government, it was possible that the portion of the region classified in a manner to prevent mining activity would have been greater. 11.2.2

A change of direction by the current or future State Governments could lock up potential tenure over which Radar Iron currently has access. This could include expansion of proposed park boundaries to include the Johnston Range Project that is currently outside any proposed park or reserve.

In addition, there is potential that approvals for exploration or development in the park and reserve areas will be subject to a higher degree of scrutiny that may take longer and could potentially be more costly.

Please refer to Section 3.1 of the Independent Technical Report for further information.

Further, the Company's operations will have an impact on the environment and there are inherent risks associated with safety and damage to the environment and the disposal of waste products.

  • Dilution Risk On completion of the Offers, between 22,750,000 and 25,750,000 Options will be on issue. If these Options are converted into Shares there will be a dilution so that the existing Shareholders will hold between 69% and 72% of the outstanding issued Shares. 11.2.3
  • Exploration and Development The Tenements held by the Company as described in this Prospectus have had limited prior exploration, and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are high-risk undertakings. 11.2.4

There can be no assurance that exploration of the Tenements, or any other licenses that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic ore deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

In addition, each of the granted Exploration Licences (EL77/1280, EL77/1281, EL77/1375, EL77/1164, EL77/1168 and EL77/1196) in which Radar Resources Pty Ltd has an interest has an authorisation to explore for iron ore in accordance with Section 111 of the Mining Act. The granted Prospecting Licences (P77/3458 and P773459) do not currently have an authorisation to explore for iron ore. The Company will need to obtain authorisation under Section 111 of the Mining Act 1978 (WA) in order to be able explore for iron on these Prospecting Licences and any tenements that are granted in respect of the Tenement applications identified in Solicitor's Report on Tenements. There is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in obtaining such an authorisation.

Title and Native Title Risks Notwithstanding the fact that no current native title claims exist in relation to the Tenements, there is a risk of title being challenged or impugned and the possibility of future native title claims. 11.2.5

Some of the Tenements in which the Company has or will have an interest (through Radar Resources Pty Ltd) are currently in the application stage. The Company will not be able to commence exploration on these Tenements

until they are granted. There is no guarantee that these applications will become granted tenements.

Further, some of the Tenements are subject to agreements with third parties and, in some cases, the Tenements are held by the third parties. If any of these third parties default in their obligations under those agreements, it could make the Tenements liable to forfeiture or otherwise have a detrimental effect on the Company's operations. Please refer to Sections 9 and 10 for further details.

Exploration licences and prospecting licences only permit the Company to undertake exploration on the Tenements. In the event that the Company successfully delineates an economic resource on any of the Tenements, it will need to apply for a mining lease to undertake development and mining on the Tenement. There is no guarantee that the Company will be granted a mining lease if one is applied for.

  • Tenure and Access The Company's Tenements are subject to periodic renewal and there is no guarantee that renewals sought will be granted. 11.2.6
  • Failure to Satisfy Expenditure Commitments Each Tenement the Company holds is subject to expenditure and reporting obligations. If these are not met the Company may lose its interest in the Tenements. Currently, the minimum annual expenditure commitments for each of the granted Tenements have been met, except for E77/1168 which has had no expenditure lodged for 2010. Details are set out in the Solicitor's Report on Tenements in Section 9 of this Prospectus. 11.2.7
  • Taxation Risk Changes to applicable taxation legislation or its interpretation, could affect the value of the investments held by the Company, and the ability to provide returns to Shareholders. 11.2.8
  • Aboriginal Heritage Approval by the Federal Department of Indigenous Affairs may be required before exploration or mining activities can commence on the Tenements. 11.2.9
  • Changes in Government Policy Adverse changes in Federal or Western Australian government policies or legislation may affect ownership of mineral interests, taxation, royalties, land access, labour relations, and mining and exploration activities of the Company. 11.2.10
  • Operating Risks There are significant operating risks in exploration and development of mining projects. 11.2.11
  • Resource Estimates If any resources are defined on the Tenements in the future, these estimates will be subjective and in accordance with the rules of the ASX as laid down from time to time. 11.2.12
Commodity
Price Volatility
and
Exchange
Rate Risks
The price of iron ore fluctuates and is affected by many
factors beyond the control of the Company. Income and
expenditure of the Company will be in Australian dollars,
whilst any sale of iron ore will be in United States dollars
which leaves the Company exposed to fluctuations in
exchange rates.
11.2.13
Capital
Requirements
There is no certainty regarding the Company's ability to
raise
equity
and
debt
to
meet
future
capital
requirements.
11.2.14
Reliance on
Key Personnel
The successful day to day management of the Company
relies solely on its Key Management Personnel and the
Company's ability to retain these personnel.
11.2.15
General Risks Economic risks, insurance risk, market conditions, general
resource sector risks, regulatory risk and other risks exist.
11.3

Investors should be aware that an investment in the Company involves risks that may be higher than risks associated with an investment in some other companies. Careful consideration should be given to all matters raised in this Prospectus and the relative risk factors prior to applying for Shares offered for subscription under this Prospectus. Some of these risks can be mitigated by the use of appropriate safeguards and actions, but some are outside the Company's control and cannot be mitigated. Investors should consider the risk factors described above and outlined in more detail in Section 11, together with the information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, before deciding whether to apply for Shares.

2. CHAIRMAN'S LETTER

5 November 2010

Dear Investor

On behalf of the Directors of Radar Iron Ltd (Radar Iron or Company), I am pleased to invite you to subscribe for Shares at an issue price of \$0.20 each under this Prospectus.

The Company is seeking to raise \$6,000,000 through the issue of 30,000,000 Shares at an issue price of \$0.20 each. Oversubscriptions of up to a further 10,000,000 Shares at an issue price of \$0.20 each to raise up to \$2,000,000 may be accepted. You may apply for Shares using the Application Form attached to this Prospectus.

Radar Iron has been formed to hold the iron ore assets previously owned by Transit Holdings Ltd (Transit Holdings). Through its proposed acquisition of Radar Resources Pty Ltd from Transit Holdings, Radar Iron will secure the rights to various iron ore exploration tenements covering an approximate 290 km² land area in the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt in the central Yilgarn region of Western Australia.

Significant potential exists for both hematite and magnetite mineralisation in a largely untested but prospective series of banded iron formations located in a region where substantial iron ore production has been sustained for more than 20 years.

The primary objective of the Company is to rapidly complete targeted exploration programs with a view to defining a JORC compliant iron ore resource. The existence of hematite mineralisation may offer the potential for initial earlier cash flows if direct shipping quality ore can be delineated in economic quantities, with any significant magnetite mineralisation likely to require third party involvement.

The immediate priority of the Company will be to rapidly drill test a number of targets that have been generated by recent geophysical and field studies. It is planned to complete target definition and concurrently complete first stage testing aimed at an initial JORC code compliant resource estimation by mid 2011. Appropriate exploration budgets have been allocated for this purpose over the next two years.

Following the successful listing of Radar Iron on the ASX, I am confident that the combination of quality Tenements and the highly skilled and motivated team will lead to successful definition of both hematite and magnetite mineralisation.

This Prospectus includes details of the Company, its assets and proposed exploration and assessment. There is also a statement of risks associated with investing in the Company that every person interested in investing in Radar Iron should read and understand. Please ensure you obtain independent professional advice if you do not understand any of the risks.

On behalf of the Directors, I commend this investment opportunity to you and look forward to welcoming you as a shareholder.

Yours faithfully,

Alan Tough Chairman

5. COMPANY AND PROJECT OVERVIEW

5.1 Company Profile

5.1.1 Overview of Radar Iron Ltd

Radar Iron was incorporated on 21 September 2010 with the aim of growing shareholder value through the exploration of and discovery of commercially viable mineral resources in Western Australia and, if warranted, the subsequent development of mining operations.

On 25 October 2010, Radar Iron entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of the shares in Radar Resources Pty Ltd via a share sale agreement with ASX listed Transit Holdings (refer to Section 10.1 of this Prospectus). Radar Resources Pty Ltd currently has the rights to various tenements in the Yilgarn Iron Ore Province located in Western Australia which the Company considers are prospective for iron ore.

5.1.2 Ownership Structure

An overview of the ownership structure of the Company on completion of the Offers is shown below.

(1) Assuming full subscription and excluding oversubscriptions.

5.1.3 Project Overview

Through the acquisition of Radar Resources Pty Ltd, Radar Iron will secure access to the iron ore rights for three groups of Tenements covering a total area of approximately 290km2. The Tenements are considered to be prospective for both hematite and magnetite mineralisation and are located between approximately 110km and 190km north of Southern Cross in the central Yilgarn region of Western Australia (Figure 1).

The ground has had minimal effective previous drill exploration for iron ore (by Transit Holdings) and remains prospective for new discoveries. The previous work, however, did establish the potential for both near-surface, banded iron formation (BIF) hosted, iron-enriched hematite-goethite mineralisation and for primary magnetite mineralisation.

The central Yilgarn region has been the focus of increased exploration in recent years with several new iron ore mines in the planning stage along with existing operations to the south at Windarling, Jackson and Koolyanobbing. As mining in the region develops, new options for iron ore transport have been emplaced or are being planned. Infrastructure improvement, including to road, rail and port have significantly increased the potential for realistic infrastructure solutions for new miners in the region.

Radar Iron intends to rapidly access the iron ore potential (both hematite and magnetite mineralisation) of the Tenements with the intent of producing maiden JORC code compliant resource inventories in 2011. The Company's exploration goal is to build up a resource inventory warranting development into economic cash flow generating businesses.

Figure 1 – Radar Iron Project Area

5.1.4 Introduction

Radar Iron's granted tenements comprise iron ore rights to approximately 270km2 of ground with a further 20km2 under application (Figure 2). Three project areas have been defined as:

  • Johnston Range/Copper Bore;
  • Evanston; and
  • Die Hardy.

The Johnston Range project is the largest and has the highest potential for significant iron ore discovery with over 35km of strike length of banded iron formation (BIF). The Evanston and Die Hardy projects both have approximately 4km strike length of BIF respectively.

Figure 2 – Radar Iron Tenure

Access to the region is generally good through a number of secondary roads and station tracks. Relief is typically low but with a number of substantial ridges associated with the BIF up to 100-200m above the surrounding plains.

Iron ore mining operations are located nearby to the south at Mt Jackson, Windarling and Koolyanobbing, managed by Cliffs Natural Resources (Cliffs). Approximately 8Mtpa is mined and exported by Cliffs through the port of Esperance to the south–east. Significant resources of both hematite and magnetite ores have been defined in recent years by other explorers in the district. At least two new mines are planned for production by others in 2011 in the central Yilgarn.

Radar Iron's strategy is to generate and drill test targets for both hematite and magnetite iron ore mineralisation with a view to ultimately proving up iron ore resources. Assuming an economic ore body can be defined (which is by no means certain), the Company will then look to produce and export iron ore through a standalone operation or through alliances or joint venture with existing or potential new producers in the belt.

5.1.5 Regional Geology

The Tenements are located over the northern part of the Southern Cross Granite-Greenstone Terrane in the central part of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton (Figure 3). The Yilgarn Craton is characterised by a series of generally narrow, steeply dipping, north-northwest elongate volcano-sedimentary sequences or greenstone belts which for the most part are separated by large masses of granitic rocks. The greenstone stratigraphy comprises complex sequences of mafic and ultramafic lavas and intrusives, with intercalated felsic volcanoclastics, extrusives and intrusives, and volcano-sedimentary rocks. Eastwest trending Proterozoic-aged dolerite dykes occur as late intrusives throughout the region.

Figure 3 – Regional Geology

The general region within which the Tenements are located is predominantly underlain by the 220km long Marda-Diemals greenstone belt, with the Evanston Project Tenements located over the Evanston greenstone belt. The Evanston greenstone belt is a north-easterly splay off the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt. Within the greenstone belts, BIF stands out as prominent ridges that outline the major structures of the layered greenstone sequences. All greenstone belts in the region show evidence of several phases of deformation with prominent fold and shear structures evident throughout the belt.

5.1.6 Local Geology

The Johnston Range/Copper Bore and Die Hardy Tenements lie in the Archaean Marda-Diemals greenstone belt, within which, as with other greenstone belts, the BIFs stand out as prominent ridges that outline the major deformational structures within the layered greenstone sequence. All greenstone belts in the region show evidence of multi-stage deformation, however, the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt is the least deformed. The iron ore mineralisation, both hematite and magnetite, is believed to have been formed by a succession of alteration and enrichment phases localised at structurally prepared sites within the BIF units. The hematite mineralisation in the region is believed to have resulted from extensive near-surface supergene processes localised by earlier deformational processes.

5.1.7 Previous Exploration

Various parts of the region have been subject to extensive exploration for gold, base metals and iron ore, however, other than iron ore, gold is the only commodity that has seen any significant production.

With regard to iron ore only, the BIF ridges within the region have been the target of several exploration programs, predominantly in the 1960s and 1970s, with renewed interest since the late 1990s. Reconnaissance mapping, percussion and diamond drilling by Western Mining Corporation Limited (WMC) between 1961 and 1969 outlined several iron ore prospects in the Mt Jackson and Windarling Peak areas considered too small to justify development at the time. The hematite mineralisation identified averaged greater than 62% Fe and has formed an important iron ore source for Cliffs' mining operations.

Exploration also completed by WMC in the Die Hardy Ranges identified extensive areas of magnetite BIF with enhanced iron content.

Transit Holdings completed the most thorough iron ore exploration to date on the tenements from 2006 onwards. Exploration was focussed at the Johnston Range project on the discovery of hematite/goethite mineralisation, mainly through simple surface prospecting techniques. Geophysical structural interpretation coupled with field inspection confirmed the presence of hematite, which was followed-up with reconnaissance sampling of outcrop. A number of prospects were defined with the largest named Muldoon which extended over 1.6km in strike length.

37 angled reverse circulation holes totalling 2,740m were drilled at three of the main prospects targeting sub-surface hematite/goethite mineralisation. The results of this drilling program are set out in full in the Independent Technical Report in Section 7 of this Prospectus.

The isolated significant drill intercepts reported from the drilling is considered largely a function of the difficulty in obtaining drill approvals over BIF outcrops at the time. In a number of cases, the best targets were either not able to be tested, or were only partially tested through restricted drill access.

In 2009, a gravity survey was completed at Johnston Range over three areas of prospective BIF. This data was re-interpreted geophysically in conjunction with aero-magnetic data and over 30 hematite targets identified.

Field validation of the geophysical targets commenced in June 2010 with inspections and mapping of the iron ore targets and other areas of perceived interest. As a result of this work, five high priority hematite and seven magnetite targets were selected for initial drill testing. Further field investigation is required to define additional drill targets.

Outside of Johnston Range, initial inspection of the Die Hardy Tenements indicated a coarse grained magnetite ridge 200-300m wide and over 3km long. The prospect, named Lara, is an obvious initial drill target in the Die Hardy Tenements.

The Evanston project has had limited previous work but regional aeromagnetic data indicates the presence of significant magnetite-rich BIF.

5.1.8 Infrastructure

The Tenements are located within the Yilgarn Iron Ore Province and are well placed with regard to regional transport infrastructure, a key consideration for the successful development of iron ore projects. There are established mining operations based on direct shipping hematite/goethite projects at Koolyanobbing, Windarling and Jackson, all operated by Cliffs, with combined annual production of approximately 8Mtpa. A number of other developments are proposed by other companies and are at varying stages of assessment. The Trans Australia railway line passes through Southern Cross and Koolyanobbing en route from Kwinana/Fremantle/Perth to Kalgoorlie. There is a rail link from Kalgoorlie to Esperance on the south coast from where Cliffs ships its production. All are open access lines. Esperance is a deep water port with capacity for expansion, and a 15 to 20Mtpa iron ore export facility is in the planning stages for Kwinana.

The Cliffs haul road provides a road haulage option and commences approximately 30km to the south and extends to the rail loading facility at Koolyanobbing. As new mines are developed in the area, the Company believes that infrastructure options for transport and power and water will need to be established.

Assuming Radar Iron is able to delineate an economic quantity of iron ore at one of its projects (which is by no means certain), Radar Iron has a number of options with regard to iron ore production and sale:

    1. Mine and export the product.
    1. Mine and sell at the mine gate.
    1. Sell or joint venture the resources.

The first option requires an infrastructure network to be created or accessed. Construction of a haulage road to the rail line is possible following a well defined approval process if it is not possible to use an existing haul road through paying a toll. The rail line should be accessible either with or without any upgrade depending on the required tonnage capacity. Rolling stock and locomotives can be either purchased or hired with sufficient notice. Both Esperance and Kwinana have a limited capacity for additional export of iron ore. Both Port Authorities are aware of the increasing demand being driven by potential new hematite and magnetite projects in the region and are considering options to expand export capacity.

5.1.9 Exploration Work Program and Budget

Radar Iron intends to rapidly assess the iron ore potential (both hematite and magnetite mineralisation) of the Tenements with the intent of producing maiden JORC code compliant resources in 2011. Recent field studies have identified 5 key drill targets for hematite and 7 for magnetite mineralisation. The drill targets are all within granted Tenements which are identified in Figure 4 below, other than the Lara target located in the Die Hardy prospect on E77/1168. All of these Tenements have an authorisation to explore for iron ore in accordance with Section 111 of the Mining Act 1978 (WA).

Drilling is expected to commence immediately following listing of the Company on the ASX with the initial programmes aimed at identifying the potential grade and lateral and vertical extent of the hematite targets and to provide the initial indications of size of magnetite mineralisation along with samples for metallurgical test work. Further drill targeting for magnetite will be based on satisfactory indicative metallurgical properties and grade.

If the initial drilling program is successful, stage two drilling in the first half of 2011 will be aimed at defining JORC code resources for the best prospects. Concurrently, further geophysical interpretation coupled with field mapping will aim at identifying new prospects for drill testing later in 2011. Resource definition drilling will continue as warranted into 2012 along with feasibility studies on defined resources.

The priority hematite targets for initial drill testing are:

  • Dang Located 6km to the east of Diemals Station. Approximately 400m strike extent of bedded hematite mineralisation at surface.
  • Muldoon Located 10km to the south west of Diemals Station. 3 outcrops along strike separated alluvium. Central 600m, north 400m and south 200m. The total potential strike 1800m. A separate target, Muldoon West, identified by geophysical targeting lies 800m to the west of Muldoon.
  • Lange Located 5km to east of Diemals Station. Approximately 500m strike of hematite goethite mineralisation at surface comprising the main zone followed by 150m of cover to the north and a further 350m exposure of mineralisation. Lange West - predominantly goethite mineralisation in the south with more hematitic mineralisation outcropping to the north. Approximately 500m strike length at surface.
  • Holyoake Located 3.5km south east of Diemals Station. An area of approximately 500m long mostly covered by alluvium.
  • Clutch Located 7km south east of Diemals Station. Approximate 400m long outcrop of hematite-goethite mineralisation. Potential extension along strike to the north east.

The priority magnetite targets for initial drill testing are:

  • Beven Located 10km northeast of Diemals Station. BIF outcrop 1,200x150m. Coarse grain size and high surface magnetism.
  • Lara Located on the Die Hardy Range 40km south west of Diemals Station. A BIF ridge surrounded by alluvium - outcrop width between 200- 300m and a strike of 3.4km. Coarse grain size and high surface magnetism.

  • Olger Located 4km south of Diemals station. Approximately 800x100m Jasperlitic BIF outcrop with reasonably strong magnetic response at surface and strike extension under cover to north and south.

  • Lange West Potential under goethite hematite mineralisation. Magnetic images indicate strong magnetic responses with a strike length of 2.5km.
  • Dang Potential surrounding hematite mineralisation. Magnetic images indicate strong magnetic response with a length up to 1.5km.
  • Lange Potential surrounding hematite goethite mineralisation. Magnetic images indicate strong magnetic response with a length up to 1.4km.
  • Bolger Located 6km south of Diemals station. Approximately 600x100m BIF outcrop. Potentially extends under cover to the north east.

Executive Summary

Until relatively recently, the focus of Western Australia's iron ore industry has been on direct shipping ore ("DSO") mined from hematite-goethite enriched banded iron formation ("BIF") in the Pilbara region in the State's north. BIFs consist of repeated, thin layers of iron oxides alternating with bands of iron-poor shale and /or amorphous silica. The DSO deposits most often occur as near-surface zones in iron-enriched, silica depleted BIF in early Proterozoic, and to a lesser extent, Archaean sedimentary sequences. The iron in unaltered BIF occurs primarily as magnetite, which is becoming an increasingly important source of iron for Chinese steel mills. Magnetite ores however require beneficiation by grinding and magnetic separation to produce a concentrate for direct shipping or pelletisation prior to shipment.

In contrast with the giant Pilbara operations, a number of more modest mining projects based on DSO have been, or are being developed to the south in an area generally known as the Yilgarn Iron Ore Province ("YIOP"). The first of these was at Koolyanobbing, about 50km northeast of Southern Cross (Figure 1), which dates back almost 60 years. Production was only intermittent until a re-commencement of operations in 1994. Today, a series of mines north of Southern Cross owned by Cliffs Natural Resources ("Cliffs") export about 8 million tonnes per annum ("Mtpa") of DSO through the port of Esperance on the State's south coast.

In the second half of this decade, with a surge in Chinese demand and increases in iron ore prices, a number of new, but relatively modest scale projects have been developed toward the north of the YIOP. These have been based initially on DSO, with plans to transition mining into the magnetite BIFs frequently found beneath or along strike from the DSO. Compared with the giant iron ore projects in the Pilbara, the YIOP projects are orders of magnitude smaller.

Radar Iron Ltd ("Radar" or "the Company") has secured access to three groups of tenements, Johnston Range/Copper Bore, Die Hardy and Evanston ("the Tenements") located between 100km and 190km north of the town of Southern Cross (Figure 1). Transit Holdings Ltd ("Transit"), the previous holders of iron ore rights within the Tenements, conducted limited first pass exploration principally for hematite-goethite enriched mineralisation. Transit's work has established potential for both near-surface, BIF-hosted, enriched hematitegoethite mineralisation and for primary magnetite mineralisation.

Radar has commissioned CSA Global Pty Ltd ("CSA") to prepare an Independent Geological Assessment ("Report") describing the geological setting of the BIF-hosted mineralisation in the region, the work completed by Transit and the exploration programs proposed by Radar. Radar intends to raise up to \$8.0 million, with a minimum of \$5.0 million by way of an Initial Public Offering ("IPO") of its shares to fund the proposed exploration. The Report is to be included in its entirety within a prospectus for the IPO ("Prospectus").

Figure 1. Location Map

The Johnston Range tenements were the principal focus of Transit's exploration activities as they and Copper Bore were perceived to have the greatest potential, and were the only tenements outside existing Conservation Parks and Nature Reserves. The tenements lie over the central part of the Archaean Marda-Diemals greenstone belt, within which, as with other greenstone belts, the BIFs stand out as prominent ridges that outline the major deformational structures within the layered greenstone sequence. All greenstone belts in the region show evidence of multi-stage deformation, however, the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt is the least deformed. The iron ore prospects, both goethite-hematite and the higher grade magnetite mineralisation are believed to have formed by a succession of alteration and enrichment phases localised at structurally prepared sites within the BIF units. The goethite-hematite mineralisation that is being mined in the region resulted from extensive near-surface supergene processes localised by earlier deformational processes.

Interpretation of aeromagnetic data suggests there are extensive areas of BIF within the Johnston Range tenements. In outcrop, these extend over about 35km of strike and are characterised by multiple, parallel to sub-parallel individual BIF units which exhibit complex folding patterns. Most of the BIF has been only cursorily explored for iron ore, with the emphasis to date on the discovery of near-surface goethite-hematite mineralisation.

Exploration to date has utilised mainly surface prospecting techniques and limited geophysics, which were followed by shallow drilling beneath outcropping BIF during 2008. Although the drilling reported only isolated or relatively low grade intercepts, perhaps

suggesting limited depth potential for goethite-hematite mineralisation, approvals for drilling over BIF outcrops were exceptionally difficult to obtain at the time, and so, in a number of cases, the best targets were either not able to be tested, or were only partially tested.

During 2009, a gravity survey was conducted over parts of the Johnston Range tenements by Transit. Interpretation of the data together with public domain aeromagnetic data led to the identification of numerous goethite-hematite targets, and a number of potential magnetite targets. Field validation of the geophysical targets commenced in June 2010, with field inspections and mapping and sampling mainly of goethite-hematite targets and other areas of apparent interest. As a result of this work, five high priority goethite-hematite, and seven magnetite targets have been selected for initial drill testing. Further field investigations are planned to identify additional drill targets. Only limited work has been completed within the other project areas.

The Die Hardy and Evanston tenements lie within existing, or proposed extensions to nature reserves or conservation parks within the Mt Manning district. A classification as a conservation park will still permit future applications to be lodged to conduct exploration and mining activities within it, however, the process to grant approvals to conduct exploration activities tends to take longer than is usual. Notwithstanding this, approval for a Program of Work ("PoW") to drill test the Lara magnetite prospect at Die Hardy was granted early in October 2010.

Radar has prepared programs and budgets for the proposed exploration on the basis of three possible IPO outcomes:

  • Minimum subscription \$5M,
  • Fully subscribed \$6M, and
  • Over-subscription \$8M.

The split of expenditure in the budgets between activities and between projects will be contingent upon results as the work programs advance and upon land access. CSA has reviewed the proposed exploration program and considers the exploration approach appropriate. It is CSA's opinion that the proposed work programs and expenditure are justified in light of the results of the limited exploration conducted to date, the targets generated by the geophysical interpretations and the prospectivity of the tenements for both goethite-hematite mineralisation and magnetite mineralisation.

1 Introduction

The Directors of Radar Iron Ltd have commissioned CSA Global Pty Ltd to prepare an Independent Geological Assessment describing Radar's iron ore exploration projects located north of Southern Cross in Western Australia's Yilgarn Iron Ore Province ("YIOP") (Figure 1). The projects have been acquired from Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") listed Transit Holdings Ltd (ASX:TRH), which is based in West Perth, Western Australia.

This Report has been prepared for inclusion a Prospectus for an Initial Public Offering of shares in Radar Iron Ltd (ACN 146 455 576) to be dated on or about 2 November 2010. The purpose of the Report is to provide an independent assessment of Radar's iron ore projects and the proposed exploration programs within them. Radar intends to raise up to \$8.0 million, with a minimum of \$5.0 million which is to be applied to exploration and evaluation of the Tenements, including:

  • $\mathbf{R}^{\text{max}}$ Conduct surface mapping, sampling and drilling evaluation of identified geophysical targets.
  • Re-evaluate prospects showing evidence of hematite-goethite mineralisation at surface $\blacksquare$ that have not yet been drill tested.
  • Undertake mapping and sampling over structural targets. $\blacksquare$
  • $\mathbf{m}$ Assess the prospectivity of the Evanston and Die Hardy projects, within which only minimal work has been completed.
  • Assess the potential for both goethite-hematite mineralisation and magnetite $\blacksquare$ mineralisation within the BIF units within the Tenements.

The Tenements are relatively well located in terms of their proximity to existing infrastructure, support services and population/workforce.

Reporting Standards $1.1$

Australia has rigorous standards for the preparation of independent assessments and valuations of mineral assets for inclusion in any reports that are prepared under its corporations laws. In February 1995 the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy ("AusIMM") adopted the Code and Guidelines for Assessment and Valuation of Mineral Assets and Mineral Securities for Independent Expert Reports. There have since been a number of revised editions, the latest of which was issued in mid-2005 under the title "Code for the Technical Assessment and Valuation of Mineral and Petroleum Assets and Securities for Independent Expert Reports" ("VALMIN Code"). The VALMIN Code is binding upon members of the AusIMM and the Australian Institute of Geoscientists ("AIG") when they are involved in the preparation of Public Independent Expert Reports that are required by legislation such as the Australian Corporations Act 2001, or by the listing rules of the ASX or of other recognised Stock Exchanges. It is endorsed and/or supported by ASX, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, the Mineral Industry Consultants Association, the

Minerals Council of Australia and the Securities Institute of Australia as indicative of industry best practice. The four main themes of the VALMIN Code are Transparency, Independence, Competence and Materiality. As well as adhering to the VALMIN Code as nearly as practically possible, the Report has also been prepared having due regard to the former Australian Securities Commission Practice Note 42 (Independence).

$1.2$ Terminology

Throughout this Report, the use of the term "ore" is restricted to iron mineralisation currently being mined, or that has been historically mined, or to a description of a particular iron ore type or deposit type that is universally accepted throughout the iron ore industry. Where "ore ", or "mineralisation" is prefaced by the dominant iron mineral/s present, e.g. magnetite, hematite-goethite etc., the reference is unequivocally to iron ore or to iron mineralisation. Wherever the heading to a section or sub-section includes reference to iron mineralisation, iron ore or similar, the discussion which follows should be read in that context. The term deposit is preferred over accumulation as the former has connotations of potential economic viability for at least a part of the known body of mineralisation. The term is used in several instances in the JORC Code. The JORC Code notes that synonyms for "Mineralisation" include "Type of deposit, orebody, style of mineralisation." The use of the term mineralisation in this Report is not meant to imply an orebody, or potential economic viability of the mineralisation.

$1.3$ Basis for Report

This Report has been prepared to include information available up to and including 29 October 2010. As recommended by the VALMIN Code, a field inspection of the Tenements was completed by the author on 3 September 2010. CSA was accompanied on the field visit by Transit's Project Geologist. In preparing the Report, CSA has assumed that Radar has, and will have lawful access to the Tenements such that it will be able conduct the proposed exploration programs discussed in the Report.

The opinions expressed in this Report are based upon information provided to it by Radar or sourced from the public domain. All reasonable inquiries have been made to verify the information and CSA has no reason to doubt the reliability of any of the information or to believe that information has been withheld or is incomplete. However, the information has not been independently audited, nor has any audit been conducted of Radar, Transit and/or any of their subsidiaries or associated entities. All material sources of information are shown in Section 12 at the rear of the Report.

The statements and opinions included in the Report are given in good faith and in the belief that they are not false, misleading or incomplete. A copy of the Report was provided to Radar in draft form with a written request for comment as to errors of fact or interpretation, material omissions, or substantive disagreement as to the conclusions reached herein. The opinions and conclusions presented in the Report are believed to be appropriate on the basis of the information available at the time. These could however be subject to change over time should new information become available, or with changes in other factors that may affect the prospectivity of the Tenements.

2 Location, Access, Physiography, Climate and Vegetation

The Tenements are located between 100km and 190km north of Southern Cross in Western Australia's Eastern Wheatbelt (Figure 2). Cliffs' Koolyanobbing operations are located about 50km north-northeast of Southern Cross.

There are three project areas, Johnston Range/Copper Bore, Evanston and Die Hardy (Figure 2). The Johnston Range/Copper Bore and Evanston tenements, and the northern part of the Die Hardy tenement are located within the Johnston Range 2738 1:100,000 map sheet within the Barlee SHJ 50-8 1:250,000 map sheet. Access to the Tenements is via the graded Bullfinch-Evanston Road, which passes close to the Die Hardy Project, thence via the Diemals-Menzies Road through Diemals Station to the Johnston Range and Copper Bore tenements. The Evanston tenement lies to the north of the Diemals-Menzies Road and is accessed via the Lake Barlee Road to Mt Elvire Station. Access within the various project areas is via station tracks and old cleared exploration grid lines.

The Tenements are located within the Yilgarn Iron Ore Province and are well placed with regard to regional transport infrastructure, a key consideration for the successful development of iron ore projects. There are established iron ore mining operations based on hematite-goethite mineralisation at Koolyanobbing, Windarling and Jackson, all operated by Cliffs, with combined annual production of approximately 8Mtpa. A number of other developments are proposed and are at varying stages of assessment. The Trans Australia railway line passes through Southern Cross and Koolyanobbing en route from Kwinana/Fremantle/Perth to Kalgoorlie. There is a rail link from Kalgoorlie to Esperance on the south coast from where Cliffs ships its production. All are open access lines. Esperance is a deep water port with capacity for expansion, and a 15 to 20Mtpa iron ore export facility is in the planning stages for Kwinana. To the north, the Mid-West Iron Ore Alliance is planning a regional rail infrastructure project and major iron ore export facility at Oakagee, about 40km north of the port of Geraldton from where the existing Mid-West producers are presently shipping, but relying on road transport to port.

On 7 October 2010, the Yilgarn Iron Producers' Association ("YIPA") was formed in an effort to advance development in the YIOP and to cooperate in the development of rail and other infrastructure in the region. The YIOP extends from Wiluna in the north to Koolyanobbing, and for 150km west of the Leonora-Kalgoorlie-Esperance rail and port infrastructure. The inaugural members of the YIPA include Cashmere Iron Ltd, Cliffs, Golden West Resources Ltd, Macarthur Minerals Limited, Mindax Limited, Mineral Resources Limited, Polaris Metals NL and Transit. The YIPA intends to work toward the upgrading of the existing rail link to Esperance and cooperating in the planning issues at the port.

The region has a semi-arid climate with average annual rainfall of about 275mm. The wettest months are between April and August, however, major summer rainfall events due to the remnants of tropical cyclones originating to the north and moving southeasterly are not uncommon. The hottest months are from December to March when temperatures

regularly exceed 40°C, and the coldest months from June to August when there are occasional frosts.

Relief over much of the area is low, but there are substantial ridges and ranges to the east of the Die Hardy tenements. The highest points are within prominent ridges of BIF where occasional peaks reaching over 600m above sea level rise above a gently undulating plain lying about 400m above sea level. Away from areas of greenstone, sand and loam covered plateaux with breakaways are underlain by lateritic duricrust developed over granitic rocks. Drainage is mainly to the south.

To the north, the vegetative cover is dominated by mulga, with sparse low scrub that may include Acacia, Cassia and Eucalyptus species, and sparse perennial and annual grasses. Spinifex grass may grow in areas of extensive sand plain. Mulga scrub is abundant in areas underlain by granitic rocks. To the south, areas of greenstones and broad valleys are typified by Eucalypts replacing mulga as the dominant tree type in woodlands and open woodlands, with patches of Acacia scrub and mallee. A typical understorey comprises saltbush or broombush with sparse perennial and annual grasses. BIF ridges are characterised by dense thickets of Acacia and Casuarina species up to 2.5m tall. Sandplains are dominated by dense acacia thickets interspersed with small, low woodland patches, with hummocky spinifex developed locally. Acacia scrub, with saltbush and a ground layer of more salt-tolerant species (including succulents) grows near playa lakes.

A "block" in Table 1 refers to a graticular block, which is one minute of latitude by one minute of longitude. The area of a block varies with latitude, progressively decreasing with increasing latitude due to the convergence of the lines of longitude toward the earth's poles. A block covers an area of about 3km2 within the region of Radar's projects.

The granted tenements at Johnston Range are held in the name of Radar Resources Pty Ltd, which is wholly owned by Transit. A 1.5% net profits royalty is retained by Messer's Adam and Frank Hill. Applications for exploration licences over the same ground have been lodged at Johnston Range in the names of both Transit and Radar Resources Pty Ltd. As there are competing applications over the same ground lodged by other parties, there is to be a ballot to decide the successful applicant. The Copper Bore tenement is held 95% by Polaris Metals NL, with the other 5% currently held by Mr Vern Strange ("Strange"). An agreement has been signed by Radar and Strange for Radar to acquire Strange's interest. The tenement is also the subject of a joint venture between Polaris and Radar in which Radar is presently entitled to a 57% interest in the iron ore rights. Radar and Polaris have reached agreement for Radar to acquire 100% of the iron ore rights. The Die Hardy and Evanston tenements form part of Southern Cross Goldfields Ltd Marda gold project. Iron ore rights within all tenements are held by Radar Resources Pty Ltd.

The status of the tenements and details of the various agreements are the subject of a separate Independent Solicitors' report that is included as Section 9 in the Prospectus.

Nature Reserves and Restrictions on Access $3.1$

Large areas to the north of Southern Cross in the general Mt Manning area have been declared nature reserves or conservation parks, with the area covered by these reserves set to be significantly increased (Figure 3). In a Media Statement issued on 1 September 2010, the WA State Government announced new nature and conservation arrangements for the area, which included retaining the Helena-Aurora Range and Mt Manning Range Conservation Parks and the Mt Manning Range Nature Reserve. The new reserves will be managed by the Department of Environment and Conservation ("DEC") and will comprise:

  • A class A nature reserve over the Die Hardy Range to be relinguished from the Diemals $\blacksquare$ pastoral lease, or when the lease expires in 2015. The new reserve will exclude a mineralised area in the southeast of the range.
  • $\blacksquare$ Conservation parks (not Class A) and reserves for conservation and mining over the former Mt Elvire and Jaurdi pastoral leases.
  • A reserve for conservation and mining over part of the Diemals pastoral lease, or when $\mathbf{u}$ . the lease expires in 2015.
  • $\blacksquare$ A reserve for conservation and mining over part of the area that was formerly the Mt Jackson pastoral lease.

Figure 3. Location of Existing and Proposed Conservation and Nature Reserves and Radar Tenements.

Source: WA Department of Premier and Cabinet Joint Media Statement 1/9/10: New conservation, mining arrangements for Mt Manning.

For reserved land, the land category and classification determines the degree of control that is exercised by State agencies or Ministers over activities within the reserve. A class A reserve has a higher level of consent for exploration and mining than unclassified reserves. The recommendation of the Minister for the Environment is required for exploration and mining in non-class A (i.e. unclassified) conservation parks, and for class A conservation parks outside the State's south-west land division and the Shires of Esperance and Ravensthorpe on WA's south coast. The final decision rests with the Minister for Mines. Parliamentary approval is not required for mining in unclassified conservation parks outside the areas nominated above.

The announcement noted that any development proposals in the area will continue to be subject to the requirements of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 and the Mining Act 1978 which includes assessment and advice from the Environmental Protection Authority. The DEC will remain the land managers of the reserves.

Radar does not have any tenements within existing or proposed Class A Reserves. The Die Hardy and Evanston tenements lie within existing, or proposed extensions to nature reserves or conservation parks within the Mt Manning district. A classification as a conservation park will still permit applications to be lodged to conduct exploration and mining activities within it, however, the process to grant approvals to conduct exploration activities tends to take longer than is usual. In September 2010, six applications for approval of PoWs were lodged with the Department of Mines and Petroleum to permit the initial drill testing of priority targets. At the time of writing, three had been approved with the other three pending.

4 Geology

$4.1$ Regional Geology

The Tenements are located over the northern part of the Southern Cross Granite-Greenstone Terrane in the central part of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton (Figure 4). The Yilgarn Craton is characterised by a series of generally narrow, steeply dipping, north-northwest elongate volcano-sedimentary sequences or greenstone belts which for the most part are separated by large masses of granitic rocks. The greenstone stratigraphy comprises complex sequences of mafic and ultramafic lavas and intrusives, with intercalated felsic volcanoclastics, extrusives and intrusives, and volcano-sedimentary rocks. East-west trending Proterozoic-aged dolerite dykes occur as late intrusives throughout the region.

Figure 4. Yilgarn Craton and Major Greenstone Belts

The greenstone belts show evidence of major dislocation by north-south trending crustal sutures which have had a profound effect on both their geometry and distribution. Many of these faults are traceable for hundreds of kilometres and effectively sub-divide the greenstone belts into a series of tectono-stratigraphic Terranes. Each Terrane is subdivided into a number of Domains, with the Terranes and Domains bounded by interconnecting major fault systems. The faults are believed to have been the conduits for the fluids which introduced the majority of Archaean gold mineralisation within the Craton.

The Southern Cross Granite-Greenstone Terrane is characterised by strongly deformed, lenticular greenstone belts dominated by mafic-ultramafic volcanic successions intercalated with BIF units that have been intruded by voluminous monzogranites. To the east, the Southern Cross Granite-Greenstone Terrane is juxtaposed against the Eastern Goldfields Granite-Greenstone Terrane, with the distinction between the two drawn on the basis of lithological variations, relative volumes of different rock types, and different ages and structural styles of the greenstone sequences. The Ida Fault is a regional-scale structure inferred to represent the boundary between the Southern Cross and Eastern Goldfields Granite-Greenstone Terranes. To the west, the central and northern parts of the Southern Cross Greenstone-Granite Terrane adjoin the Murchison Granite-Greenstone Terrane along the Youanmi Fault.

$4.2$ Regional Geology of Project Areas

The general region within which the Tenements are located is predominantly underlain by the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt, with the Evanston Project tenements located over the Evanston greenstone belt (Figure 5). The Evanston greenstone belt is a north-easterly splay off the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt, from which it is separated by the Rainy Rocks Monzogranite. Within the greenstone belts, BIF stands out as prominent ridges that outline the major structures of the layered greenstone sequences.

The Marda-Diemals greenstone belt extends from Lake Barlee in the north to Mt Dimer in the south, or a distance of about 220km. It is a wide, arcuate tectonic unit comprising a lower, mafic-dominated sequence, and an upper sequence of felsic volcanic and clastic sedimentary rocks. It encloses three distinct, ovoid granitoid plutons. The bounding faults to the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt and the granitoid plutons within it are, to the west, the Koolyanobbing Shear Zone ("KSZ") and Clampton Fault, which extends into the Youanmi Fault to the north, and the Mt Dimer and Evanston Shear Zones to the east ("MDSZ" and "ESZ" respectively). The KSZ is a major, deep seated, shallowly east dipping, reactivated ductile crustal structure between 6 and 15km wide, extending for more than 650km along the greenstone belt's western boundary.

Figure 5. Simplified Geology Marda-Diemals and Evanston Greenstone Belts

The lower greenstone sequence consists of a basal quartzite overlain by high-magnesium basalt and ultramafic rocks, followed by tholeiitic basalt, and two major units of BIF and chert. Felsic intrusive and pyroclastic rocks outcrop locally, but their absolute position within the stratigraphy is not clear. A major unconformity separates the lower greenstone sequence from an upper greenstone sequence comprising the Diemals Formation and the Marda Complex. The Diemals Formation is a thick sequence of heterogeneously deformed, clastic sedimentary rocks, whilst the calc-alkaline Marda Complex contains a range of extrusive acid to intermediate rock types. The Diemals Formation and the Marda Complex may have been coeval.

All greenstone belts in the region show evidence of several phases of deformation. The Marda-Diemals greenstone belt is the least deformed in the region, with a prominent BIF at or near the top of the lower greenstone sequence providing a marker horizon to trace stratigraphy throughout the belt. Foliation is well developed near the margins of the belt, but is less penetrative away from the margin. There is no recognisable fabric in basalt more than about 5km away from the margins, however folds are still developed within BIF. Away from the margins, metamorphic grades are low. In the other greenstone belts, textures are entirely metamorphic, and there is evidence for more than one episode of metamorphism.

$4.3$ Structural History

The Marda-Diemals region has undergone a multi-stage deformational history. Several deformational schemes have been proposed, leading to some confusion in the process of preparing a synopsis. The first stage $(D_1)$ is thought to have been north-south compression that produced easterly trending tight to isoclinal folds and may have initiated development of some of the large-scale shear zones that are prevalent throughout the central Yilgarn Craton. These major shear zones may have originated as extensional growth faults at the margins of the developing greenstone depositional basins. An extended period of east-west compression produced large scale, northerly trending upright folds ( $D_2$ ) that overprint $D_1$ structures, regional-scale faults and shear zones, and re-orientation of earlier structures $(D_3)$ . Subsequent deformation included the development of north-northeasterly and eastsoutheasterly trending faults and fractures during east-west to east-northeast - southsouthwest compression $(D_4)$ , and the development of a locally recognised, late-stage, easterly trending foliation with associated crenulation and open folding. Mafic and ultramafic dykes of probable Proterozoic age intruded easterly to northeasterly trending fractures.

Figure 6 is a grey-scale image of total magnetic intensity from aeromagnetic data over the region from Koolyanobbing to Lake Barlee with Radar's tenements overlain. This shows clearly the structural complexity of the Archaean sequence. The most prominent feature is the Horse Well anticline in the Johnston Range area in the north of the image. The ovoid feature to the south of the Horse Well anticline is the Pigeon Rocks Monzogranite (Figure 5), and the northeasterly trending linear feature to the east of the Horse Well anticline, the Evanston greenstone belt.

4.4 Banded Iron Formation

Banded iron formation, or BIF, is a distinctive rock type most commonly occurring in Proterozoic and Archaean volcano-sedimentary sequences. BIFs consist of repeated thin (millimetre to centimetre scale) layers of iron oxides, either magnetite ( $Fe3O4$ ) or hematite (Fe2O3), alternating with bands of iron-poor shale and/or amorphous chert. The BIFs within the Archaean sequences present in the region of the Tenements are typically steel-grey to blue, black, and locally red (jaspilitic) laminated rocks with alternating laminae of quartz and magnetite or hematite. Individual laminae range from less than 0.05mm to greater than 1mm thick, with sets of laminae, defined by iron oxide content, that range from less than 1mm to greater than 1cm thick. The quartz is typically recrystallised, but may be microcrystalline where the rock has been subjected to only low grade metamorphism.

Where there has been strong recrystallization as a result of metamorphism, the primary laminations are generally well preserved. A typical BIF outcrop is shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7. Typical BIF Outcrop Johnston Range

The thicknesses of individual BIF units in the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt are not well described, however, to the south, individual BIF ridges may be characterised by a single unit a few hundred metres thick, or several BIF units that individually are only up to a few tens of metres thick. Further to the south again, there are three BIF units within the Koolyanobbing greenstone belt which have thicknesses between 50m and 180m, and locally up to 260m where complexly folded. The middle unit comprises mainly layered quartz-magnetite rock which is weathered to quartz-martite ± goethite BIF from surface to depths of about 70m. Massive pyrite bodies between 5m and 70m thick are locally present at the stratigraphic footwall of the BIF. All BIF units have a strong positive response on magnetic images (Figure 6), forming the most prominent aeromagnetic features.

5 Iron Ore Mineralisation Models

$5.1$ Background

Potentially economic accumulations of iron ore in Western Australia occur principally within iron-enriched, silica-depleted BIF in early Proterozoic, and to a lesser extent, Archaean sedimentary sequences. They also occur as magnetite in unaltered BIF, magnetite accumulations within layered Archaean mafic/ultramafic intrusive complexes and as pisolitic mineralisation (channel iron deposits or "CID") that developed in Tertiary paleochannels. None of the several large magmatic-associated magnetite deposits has been developed as a source of iron ore thus far. Such accumulations often contain significant and sometimes potentially economic concentrations of titanium, vanadium and other metals, however these contaminants generally preclude the use of the magnetite as direct feed in the iron and steel making process. Due to their much lower iron grade and high silica content, magnetite iron ores, and particularly BIF-associated iron ores, generally require concentration to generate a product suitable for iron and steel making. Attention is however increasingly turning to BIFassociated magnetite mineralisation as demand for iron ore increases, and with it, iron ore prices, opening opportunities for new participants in the industry other than the existing major producers.

Structural control is considered to be one of the most important factors influencing the location and geometry of high grade, secondary-enriched BIF-hosted iron ore (58% to 68% Fe). Such mineralisation is generally referred to as Direct Shipping Ore or DSO. Details of the ore-forming processes and the relative timing of deformation and iron oxide enrichment remain contentious for most BIF-hosted mineralisation globally. Syngenetic models propose that synsedimentary or diagenetic structures, such as extensional faults or boudinage led to facies variations or diagenetic modification of BIF and the production of chert-free iron formation. Supergene and supergene-metamorphic models regard existing structures as high permeability zones for the circulation of ancient or recent meteoric fluids through the BIF, causing an upgrade in iron by the leaching of gangue minerals from the BIF to form iron ore, or by the pseudomorphic replacement of gangue minerals with goethite. In hypogene models, hydrothermal fluid flow associated with deformation is believed to be important for the localisation of iron oxide mineralisation in low mean stress zones within structures. Hypogene-supergene models are proposed to explain multi-stage upgrading processes for iron in BIF. Structural models are well established for many Proterozoic BIF hosted iron ore prospects in Western Australia's Pilbara region, however, the same level of understanding is lacking for BIF-related, high grade magnetite and hematite mineralisation in the Archaean Yilgarn greenstone belts.

Pilbara Enriched BIF Mineralisation $5.2$

The economically significant BIF-associated mineralisation in the Pilbara is believed to have developed by structurally controlled hypogene enrichment of much lower grade BIF protores wherein magnetite was oxidised to hematite and the chert component replaced by hydrous iron oxides to form high grade, low impurity iron ores. In some cases, burial metamorphism and subsequent leaching/supergene enrichment led to the formation of high grade hematite

mineralisation. By implication, the secondary enriched mineralisation should be only weakly-, or non-magnetic.

The enriched BIFs occur in both early Proterozoic and Archaean terranes, although the number and size of Proterozoic-associated iron ore accumulations far exceeds anything in Archaean terrane. The processes which formed the mineralisation were active in Proterozoic times, and again in Mesozoic times, and affected Proterozoic and Archaean BIFs similarly. Both Archaean and Proterozoic BIFs have the potential to contain high grade iron ores. There appears to be nothing in the genetic model to distinguish Archaean and Proterozoic BIF associated accumulations other than size, which is no doubt related to the relative abundance of BIF in the two terranes.

Within the Pilbara's Hamersley Province, the progenitor BIF comprised typically chert and magnetite, with or without primary hematite, together with a variable content of silicates and carbonate. Initially, fold structures in the BIF that were capable of forming open-ended artesian systems were exposed to supergene processes. Magnetite was oxidised to hematite and kenomagnetite, which may remain as a magnetic component in immature iron ores or which may have inverted to hematite or goethite. Pseudomorphs of hematite after magnetite are known as martite. This supergene enrichment was largely lost to erosion.

A second essential feature of the genetic model was that some structural feature, such as a cross fold, allowed initial groundwater access to the BIF well below surface. As water flowed through the system, silica and other gangue minerals were leached and replaced by hydrous iron oxides. Much of the iron leaching from the eroding supergene-enriched surface was mobilised as ferrous iron by organic processes and transported deep into the system to be added as ferric iron to the BIF that eventually became the orebody. Seasonal wetting and drying of outcrop produced redox alternations that were transmitted through conductive layers in the BIF to produce oxidation reactions at depths normally well beyond the reach of atmospheric influences. The mineralisation thus formed by upward growth toward the surface, sometimes from considerable depths, as gangue minerals were replaced by supergene-metasomatic processes. Reburial occurred about 1,850 million years ago, and the enriched BIF was subjected to low grade burial metamorphism, resulting in much of the matrix replacement goethite being converted to secondary hematite. Some of the Hamersley Province iron ore accumulations have dip extensions in excess of 1,500m.

younger-formed (Mesozoic) deposits were not subsequently buried and The metamorphosed, and survived as goethite-martite ores. In the upper levels of these deposits, and particularly in the thin carapace that defines the hardpan zone, there may be significant secondary hematite that has resulted from the dehydration of metasomatic goethite.

$5.3$ Koolyanobbing Enriched BIF Mineralisation

The goethite-hematite iron ore accumulations within the Koolyanobbing greenstone belt are amongst the most significant accumulations of high grade iron ore in the Yilgarn Craton. Seven iron ore accumulations are hosted in the southern section of the middle BIF unit over a strike length of 14km along the discontinuous Koolyanobbing Range. Pre-mining tonnage estimates amount to about 150Mt above a 58% Fe cut-off, whilst the K deposit, with >100Mt pre-mining, is considered to be the largest single accumulation of hematite-goethite

mineralisation in the Yilgarn. There are five distinct high grade mineralisation types which are distinguished on the basis of the dominant iron oxide, viz. magnetite, martite, specularite, goethite and goethite-martite. The latter is volumetrically the most important at about 80% of known mineralisation. Typically, the lithologic units hosting the iron ore mineralisation show mixtures of the main oxides. The least altered, unweathered protolith is a quartz-magnetite BIF. Exploration during the 1950s also led to the discovery of massive sulphide bodies, sulphide-hosted goethite gossan and high grade magnetite mineralisation below what are now known to be the K and A deposits.

The most recent studies suggest a multi-stage alteration and iron ore formation process, the essence of which may be summarised thus:

  • $\mathbf{m}$ Stage 1 was an early Fe-Mg ( $\pm$ Ca?) metasomatism that locally altered quartz-magnetite BIF to Fe-rich carbonate-magnetite BIF by replacement of silica layers. The hydrothermally altered BIF is typically enriched in iron (approximately 45% to 55% Fe) without showing any volume reduction, which is considered to be evidence that iron was added to the BIF host by metasomatism. Stage 1 is thought to have "prepared" the BIF for subsequent dissolution of carbonate gangue during Stage 2. Since dolomite (Ca-Mg) carbonate) deforms easily under moderately hot $(\leq 300^{\circ}C)$ and wet conditions, early stage carbonate alteration was probably also important for strain localisation of shear zones and faults in which magnetite and specularite precipitated during iron ore formation Stages 3 and 4.
  • Stage 2 includes formation of laminated magnetite and magnetite breccia $\blacksquare$ mineralisation. Formation of the larger bodies of high grade magnetite mineralisation resulted from the removal of carbonate, and to a minor extent, quartz.
  • Stage 3 involved the formation of enriched magnetite by the replacement of quartz and $\blacksquare$ localised carbonate in brittle and brittle-ductile structures in reactivated $D_2$ fold cores, and locally in wall rock and quartz veins adjacent to mineralised brittle structures. Stage 3 mineralisation is only a minor part of overall iron ore formation.
  • Stage 4 was predominantly specularite mineralisation and the first phase of $\mathbf{R}^{\text{max}}$ martitisation. It is thought likely that the major controlling structures were large strikeslip faults with a north-northwest to west-northwest trend. The precipitation of specularite in BIF was not an effective enrichment process, and in fact caused a reduction in magnetite content. However, carbonate replacement of quartz in siliceous BIF was an important preparation for weathering-related leaching during Stage 5. Martitisation in wall-rock magnetite associated with specularite veins was minor.
  • $\blacksquare$ Stage 5 iron ore formation is attributed to supergene processes, which is supported by a top-down zoning of the mineralisation characteristics. Two types of weathering profiles are developed in the mineralised Koolyanobbing middle BIF:
  • $\Box$ A thick zone of goethite-martite mineralisation in the upper part underlain by deep zones of Stage 2 to 3 mineralisation, which is characteristic of the larger iron ore accumulations, and

A thin zone of goethite mineralisation underlain by oxidised, siliceous mineralisation or slightly hydrothermally altered BIF.

The main zones of the weathering profile therefore comprise, from the bottom up:

  • $\Box$ A magnetite BIF showing no weathering;
  • D A martite zone indicating partial to complete gangue leaching and an upgrading of BIF, with minor leaching of massive martite;
  • n A goethite-rich martite zone showing partial to complete pseudomorphic gangue replacement of carbonate ± siliceous BIF or breccias and goethite replacement of martite forming goethite-martite; and
  • A massive to vuggy, clay and secondary silica-rich goethite zone which represents $\Box$ the hard cap.

This zoning is similar to the vertical depth profiles of supergene (i.e. weathering related) modifications in iron ore accumulations in the Hamersley Basin. The maximum age of this weathering-related overprint may be as old as the Permian, corresponding to regolith ages throughout the central Yilgarn Craton. The predominant weathering processes were:

  • $\mathbf{u}$ . Gangue leaching in which a second stage of removal of carbonate $\pm$ quartz from medium grade Stage 2 and 3 mineralisation at depth led to an upgrade to residual high grade iron ore. This weathering-related mineralisation is typically martite-rich.
  • $\blacksquare$ Textural modification of the BIF layering by replacement of magnetite, martite and specularite by pseudomorphic goethite. This process extended to 70m below surface, with deeper weathering present in steep fault zones.
  • Martitisation in which massive, laminated martite ore pseudomorphically replaced $\mathbf{m}$ massive Stage 2 magnetite mineralisation.

The intensity of BIF alteration and of the hypogene mineralising stages 1 to 4 varies throughout the Koolyanobbing belt, and there is a positive correlation between accumulation size and the number of stages of iron ore development within individual accumulations. In all mineralisation, it is apparent that at least one of the hypogene stages occurred. The boundaries between BIF and laminated iron ore are often perpendicular to bedding, which indicates that massive, layered magnetite rock did not form as a result of sedimentation. Ultimately, enriched iron ore formation was controlled by deformationcontrolled processes, with the dominant goethite-martite mineralisation throughout the belt resulting from extensive near-surface supergene processes that operated during Stage 5. A typical specimen of hematite/goethite enriched mineralisation is shown in Figure 8.

Figure 8. Typical Specimen of Hematite/Goethite Enriched DSO

$5.4$ Magnetite Mineralisation

In simplistic terms, other than the magmatic-associated accumulations, accumulations of magnetite generally occur within iron-rich BIF units. As the supergene processes that resulted in the final enrichment of altered BIF to produce hematite-goethite enriched iron ore extended to only relatively shallow depths or are absent altogether, at least at Koolyanobbing, the size potential of magnetite mineralised accumulations far exceeds those of the secondary enriched accumulations. As described above, there is potential for the discovery of magnetite enriched BIF resulting from the Stage 1 and 2 iron ore forming processes in which gangue silicates were progressively replaced by carbonate-magnetite, and then the removal of carbonate and silica to form laminated magnetite iron ore and magnetite breccia iron ore. These iron ore accumulations are likely to be both outcropping, and blind, that is, non-outcropping.

Thus, the potential for the discovery of high grade magnetite iron ore extends well beyond the obvious, and will require a more complex approach than simple surface prospecting and sampling of outcropping BIF.

6 Koolyanobbing Type Mineralisation Exploration Models

Besides the influence of the structural framework on the formation of enriched iron ores, the conjunction of a number of regional-scale geological elements and processes is considered critical in effecting a sequential upgrade of BIF to iron ore, viz.:

  • An originally high iron content in the BIF protore;
  • Localised hydrothermal alteration of BIF;
  • Progressive compressive deformation characterised by fold reactivation and brittle deformation;
  • Long-lasting fluid flow favouring gangue leaching, channelled by large structures; $\mathbf{u}$ . followed by
  • $\blacksquare$ Weathering-related upgrade from the Permian to recent times after a long period of uplift.

The weathering-related upgrade is spatially related to Archaean magnetite and specularite $\pm$ martite-rich iron ore. This suggests that the localisation of supergene processes may be preferentially controlled by the earlier stages of medium grade iron ore formation, rather than by structures in unaltered BIF.

The strong structural control on early iron ore formation indicates that a full understanding of the prospectivity of a district will require an evaluation of its structural evolution and features. The close spatial relationship between surface-related upgrade and existing medium to high grade magnetite/martite/specularite iron ore suggests the possibility of discovering blind magnetite- and/or specularite-rich mineralisation within the BIF units. In order to identify these blind iron ore accumulations, an evaluation of the prospectivity of structures within the BIF, combined with geophysical surveys, especially gravity and magnetic inversion will be essential. Ferroan talc and carbonate occur proximal to the largest high grade iron ore accumulations in the region, and these may be useful as footprint indicators for high grade magnetite-, martite- and/or specularite-rich mineralisation.

7 Iron Ore Characteristics and Quality

Iron ore which can be mined and sold without any beneficiation is known as Direct Shipping Ore or DSO. A typical Pilbara DSO has a grade of 61% to 63% Fe or more, combined silica plus alumina of around 5% to 6% and a phosphorus content of around 0.06% to 0.07%. Some lower grade mineralisation has been developed to allow for blending achieve a required iron grade, reduced levels of impurities, or to deliver products with specific characteristics.

Mining, crushing and screening of DSO yields two principal products, lump ore and fines, with fines typically comprising 60% to 80% of products. Lump ore generally commands a premium of 25% to 30% over prices for fines as it can be fed directly into a blast furnace. Fines require agglomeration by sintering to prepare a suitable furnace feed. The sintering characteristics of the fines are critical in determining its marketability, as are the concentrations of key impurities. Prices for goethitic BIF iron ores and pisolitic iron ores are somewhat less than those for hematitic iron ores, which probably comprise about half of the iron ore produced from the Pilbara. Penalties are generally payable for silica plus alumina, and/or phosphorus exceeding specified limits.

Most steel mills throughout the world run with at least 5 or 6 iron ore types or "brands" in their sinter blend. The use of different brands is necessary to ensure a uniform chemical composition for the sinter feed, and especially, uniform physical and sintering properties. Few high grade (>63% Fe) iron ore fines have excellent all-round sintering quality since sinter quality is controlled by factors other than Fe content, including the iron-bearing minerals present, and their size, particle porosity and mineral textures. A high Fe grade in fines products does not necessarily mean good sintering properties. CID fines products have seen a significant increase in sales volumes over recent years as this material has excellent sintering properties, even though it contains only 58% to 60% Fe.

More recently, attention has turned to BIF-hosted magnetite prospects. As would be expected, magnetite iron ore has a lower iron grade and is more siliceous than hematite iron ore and requires grinding and magnetic concentration to produce a saleable concentrate, which may be pelletised. Unbeneficiated magnetite BIF typically contains 30% to 35% Fe which is upgradeable to a concentrate containing 65% to 70% Fe. Recovery of iron to concentrates is relatively low, and generally in the range 30% to 60%. Recovery is dependent upon the liberation characteristics of the magnetite from the siliceous gangue. A good indication of the likely recovery and product quality from a full-scale magnetic separator is provided by means of a procedure known as a Davis Tube Recovery ("DTR") test. The Davis Tube consists of a glass tube positioned in a magnetic field which enables the retention of the magnetic fraction within the tube whilst the non-magnetic fraction of the ground sample is flushed away with water.

The largest example of a project based on the beneficiation of magnetite iron ores is CITIC Pacific Mining's Sino Iron Project located at Cape Preston about 100 kilometres south of Dampier, which is currently under construction. The project is based on over two billion tonnes of magnetite mineralisation beneficiable to a 71% Fe concentrate, or almost pure When complete, it is anticipated to produce 27.6Mtpa of pellets and magnetite.

concentrates. Other of the more advanced projects are Grange Resources' Southdown project near Albany, Gindalbie Metals Karara project and Mt Gibson's Extension Hill project in the mid-west.

Although more expensive to produce as a smelter feed, magnetite concentrates generate less carbon dioxide during the conversion process than hematite iron ores. Much of the Chinese steel making industry is based on magnetite as smelter feed.

8 Previous Exploration in Region

Various parts of the region have been subject to extensive exploration for gold, base metals and iron ore, however, other than iron ore, gold is the only commodity that has seen any significant production. The felsic extrusive rocks of the Marda Complex were extensively explored for volcanogenic massive sulphide style base metal mineralisation from about 1978 to 1986. As the non-iron ore exploration is not material to Radar's objectives it will not be considered in any further detail.

The BIF ridges within the region have been the target of several exploration programs for iron ore, predominantly in the 1960s and 1970s, with renewed interest since the late 1990s. Reconnaissance mapping, percussion and diamond drilling by Western Mining Corporation Limited ("WMC") between 1961 and 1969 outlined several iron ore prospects in the Mt Jackson and Windarling Peak areas. Although deemed uneconomic at the time, particularly in comparison with the giant iron ore projects in the Pilbara, this mineralisation now amounts to something in excess of 100Mt grading >62% Fe and forms an important ore source for Cliffs' Koolyanobbing DSO operations.

WMC also conducted exploration within the Die Hardy Ranges which identified extensive areas of magnetite BIF with enhanced iron contents of the order of 40% to 45% Fe. Although clearly not economic at the time, these grades are very much higher than unenriched BIF and today might represent a high grade magnetite target. BHP carried out reconnaissance exploration over the Helena-Aurora Range to the east during the 1960s and early 1970s and defined a number of prospects that are currently being re-evaluated by other explorers.

9 Iron Ore Prospects and Operations in Region

High grade iron ore grading 60% Fe or more occurs at a number of locations within lower grade BIF within the region. Open pit iron ore mining commenced at Koolyanobbing, about 50km north-northeast of Southern Cross, in 1948 from what is now known as the K deposit. At that time, the Western Australian State Government operated the mine to supply iron ore to the Wundowie charcoal iron smelter in the hills behind Perth. Between the mid-1960s and 1983, BHP operated the K and A mines to supply iron ore to its Kwinana blast furnace, south of Perth. After a ten year period of care and maintenance, Portman Iron Ore Ltd, in joint venture with a Chinese partner, bought the operation and mining re-commenced in 1994. From 2007, operations were conducted by the Koolyanobbing Alliance, a joint venture between Portman and BGC Contracting. In 2009, Cliffs increased its shareholding in Portman to 100%. Cliffs also operates mines at Windarling and Jackson, 100km and 75km respectively north-northwest of Koolyanobbing (Figure 9). Cliffs' operations have a combined output of about 8Mtpa. Cliffs also has a development project at Deception, about 20km north of its Windarling operations. Products are railed to the port of Esperance on Western Australia's south coast for export to overseas customers.

Elsewhere within the region north of Southern Cross, Mineral Resources Limited ("MIN") has defined iron mineralisation at Carina, about 60km northeast of Koolyanobbing, at Bungalbin, about 50km north northeast of Kooyanobbing, and holds the northern part of Cliffs' Deception project. The mineralisation at Bungalbin-Jackson consists mostly of goethite or goethite-hematite, whilst at Koolyanobbing and Windarling, hematite is the dominant mineral.

Further afield, Cashmere Iron Ltd has announced JORC Code compliant Mineral Resources at its Cashmere Downs project totalling 1.01 billion tonnes at a grade of 32.6% Fe, which is principally magnetite mineralisation. Cashmere Downs lies about 110km northeast of Radar's Johnston Range tenements. At Macarthur Minerals Limited's Lake Giles project, about midway between Johnston Range and Menzies, a JORC Code compliant Inferred Mineral Resource of 1.12 billion tonnes of magnetite mineralisation grading 28.7% Fe has been defined. Mindax Limited's Mt Forest project lies about 140km northeast of Johnston Range and about 40km east of the Cashmere Downs project. A JORC Code compliant Inferred Resource of 1.01 billion tonnes at a grade of 31.4% Fe has been defined in eleven deposits.

10 Radar Iron Ltd's Projects

Radar has three iron ore exploration project areas. Most of the work completed by Transit has been within the Johnston Range/Copper Bore tenements. The Evanston and Die Hardy tenements have received only cursory attention and are yet to be assessed for their iron ore potential. In September 2010, six PoW applications were lodged with the Department of Mines and Petroleum to permit the initial drill testing of priority targets. At the time of writing, three had been approved.

10.1 Johnston Range/Copper Bore Project

The Johnston Range/Copper Bore tenements are located about 170 to 190km north of Southern Cross within the Johnston Range, and about 30km north of Cliffs' Windarling operations (Figure 9). They comprise three granted exploration licences totalling 80 blocks, and two exploration licence applications of 3 blocks each, for an aggregate area of about 260km2. The Johnston Range tenements (E77/1280 and E77/1281) are registered to Radar Resources Pty Ltd, and the Copper Bore tenement E77/1375 to Polaris Metals NL. Applications for E77/1806 and E77/1807 have been lodged by Transit and Radar Resources Pty Ltd, but are the subject of competing applications by others, with the outcome to be determined by ballot. The Johnston Range tenements have been the principal focus of Transit's exploration as they have the greatest potential for the discovery of significant iron ore mineralisation and lie outside the existing and proposed extensions to nature reserves and conservation parks described in Section 3.1, are not subject to any Native Title claims and do not include any heritage sites.

The project tenements cover the central portion of the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt. Within the centre of the project area, extensive areas of BIF are identifiable on images of aeromagnetic data. The BIFs within the tenements extend over 35km of strike and are characterised by multiple parallel to sub-parallel individual BIF units which exhibit complex folding patterns. Almost all the BIF has been only cursorily explored.

Exploration by Transit has been conducted in two phases, separated by the Global Financial Crisis in 2008/2009:

10.1.1 Exploration 2006-2008

The principal emphasis of this phase of exploration was the discovery of surface-enriched hematite/goethite deposits, mainly through simple surface prospecting techniques.

In 2007 RSG Global Consulting Pty Ltd ("RSG") was commissioned to review the iron ore prospectivity of the tenements and completed a literature review and field trip. RSG's recommendation was that exploration efforts should be focussed on the Johnston Range tenements. Subsequently a structural interpretation was completed based on public domain aeromagnetic data which identified areas of structural complexity that may be conducive to the development of enriched hematite mineralisation. Field inspection confirmed the

presence of hematite, which was followed-up with reconnaissance sampling of outcrop. In all, 391 rock chip samples were collected from within the Johnston Range exploration licences, and 45 from Copper Bore. As a result of the sampling program, seven prospective areas were identified, which were named Rowling, Clark, Shipley, Muldoon, Bolger, Holyoake and Lange (Figure 10). The BIFs at Muldoon and Bolger define the western and eastern limbs respectively of the Horse Well Anticline.

Figure 9. Johnston Range/Copper Bore Project - Prospect Locations

Analysis of the sampling data indicated that the most prospective targets were Muldoon, Bolger and Lange. Much of the BIF outcrop within Copper Bore is silica-rich or jasperoidal in nature, with some of the hematite/goethite mineralisation apparently only a surface feature. The surface rock chip results from the Rowling, Muldoon, Bolger and Lange prospects are summarised below:

10.1.2 2008-2010 Exploration

Transit acquired the latest public domain aeromagnetic data over the Johnston Range/Copper Bore tenements during 2008. In July/August 2009 Atlas Geophysics completed a gravity survey over three areas of prospective BIF within the Johnston Range tenements using survey stations spaced 100m apart on 200m spaced east-west traverse lines. Figure 10 is an image of the aeromagnetic data with hotter colours (red and white) associated with areas of greater susceptibility, and therefore potential for magnetic iron-rich lithologies.

Figure 10. Johnston Range/Copper Bore Imaged Aeromagnetic Data

In September 2009, Southern Geoscience Consultants Pty Ltd ("SGC") interpreted the aeromagnetic and gravity data, together with geological data to identify targets with potential for surface-enriched hematite-goethite mineralisation. The assessment focussed on identifying gravity highs (i.e. areas underlain by dense material) coincident with magnetic lows that could represent possible hematite mineralisation/alteration associated with BIF. It will be recalled that the processes thought responsible for the formation of secondary hematite/goethite mineralisation result in the replacement of magnetite with non-magnetic hematite and goethite. Targets were identified and grouped into three target types

according to their potential based on geophysical anomaly strength and geological setting. Of these, 17 targets were selected as highest priority for follow-up.

Figure 11 shows the imaged gravity data overlain on the aeromagnetic image shown in Figure 10, together with the targets identified by SGC. The gravity data is shown as Bouger anomalies with the hotter colours indicating rocks with higher density, which in this case, would typically be iron-rich units.

Figure 11. Johnston Range/Copper Bore Goethite-Hematite Targets and Extent of Gravity Overlain on Aeromagnetic Image.

In addition to the hematite/goethite targets, a number of gravity highs associated with strongly magnetic units were attributed to magnetite accumulations at depth. As the initial interpretation was limited to targeting hematite mineralisation, further review is required to fully define the magnetite potential.

Field validation of the geophysical targets commenced in June 2010, with field inspections and mapping of the hematite/goethite targets and other areas of perceived interest. In conjunction with regional mapping over geophysical targets, selected magnetite-rich intervals from the 2008 drilling were submitted for assay. The iron assay grades returned

were in keeping with a well mineralised BIF, with low levels of alumina and phosphorus. Whether or not these will report proportionally to a magnetite concentrate will not be known until metallurgical tests have been completed.

As a result of this work, five high priority hematite and seven magnetite targets have been selected for initial drill testing. Further field investigation is required to define additional drill targets.

10.1.3 Flora Survey within E77/1280 and E77/1281

Late in January 2008, J & J Tucker Environmental Solutions ("JJT") conducted a Declared Rare and Priority flora survey within E77/1280 and E77/1281, which are the two granted Johnston Range tenements (Table 1). The areas of greatest potential environmental sensitivity in terms of Declared Rare and Priority flora are the BIF ridges. JJT noted that the (then) principal prospects, Rowling, Bolger, Holyoake, Lange and Muldoon impact on only about 10% of the local BIF outcrops. Much of the work then in progress was away from the areas of outcrop.

The survey focussed on priority species identified from desktop searches of the Threatened Flora Database, the WA Herbarium and the Declared Rare Flora and Priority Flora Databases undertaken in November 2007 using a 15km radius from a centre point within the project tenements. Seven priority species were identified as potentially occurring within the search area.

The region had been subject to drought for a number of years and the field work showed that the lower stories of flora were in very poor condition due to both drought and pastoral grazing pressure. As a result, there were difficulties in identifying species in the field and it was decided to adopt an area approach whereby transects were studied both within and well away from the proposed areas of activity. Twenty three transects were established across the project areas, in addition to which, three extensive transects were established outside the areas designated for exploration activities. No work was conducted east of Lange as the extended survey to the west and south was considered sufficient to demonstrate that the species found within the prospect areas were also present elsewhere. This approach led to the conclusion that all priority species that could be recognised, if not positively identified within Transit's tenements, were well represented within a radius of 25km of the project areas.

Two of the seven species identified within the databases studied were positively identified within Transit's tenements, however, given that the distribution of the species extended beyond the area of potential impact, it was considered unlikely that the proposed exploration activities would threaten any local floral associations or individual species.

10.2 Die Hardy Project

The Die Hardy tenements are also located within the Marda-Diemals greenstone belt, approximately 120km north of Southern Cross (Figure 2). The tenements comprise two exploration licences E77/1164 and E77/1168, two granted prospecting licences P77/3458 and P77/3459, and three prospecting licence applications P77/3460-3462 held by Southern Cross Goldfields Ltd (Table 1). The granted tenements cover an area of about 18 $km^2$ , whilst

the applications cover a further 533ha. Iron ore rights within the tenements have been assigned to Radar Resources Pty Ltd. The tenements all lie within current or proposed conservation parks (Figure 3), however, a PoW was approved early in October 2010 which will allow initial drill testing of the Lara magnetite target to commence. Classification as a Conservation Park will still permit future applications to conduct mining activities within its boundaries.

The Die Hardy Range BIFs are generally folded by a large, northerly plunging anticline with a northwesterly trending axis (Figure 6). A similarly oriented syncline to the east straddles the large-scale, regionally significant, northwesterly trending Mt Dimer Shear Zone. There are also several smaller, well developed shears, with further structural complication created by normal and reverse faulting. The tenements are located over areas of strong folding and faulting within the Mt Dimer Shear Zone, which disappears beneath Recent cover toward the south.

Figures 12 and 13 show a simplified geological interpretation of the areas surrounding the northerly and southerly tenements respectively. The more northerly tenements are located over a sequence of thin chert and BIF horizons within units of high-Mg basalt and ultramafic schist, which is overlain by a sequence of major, regionally extensive, structurally thickened BIFs, metabasalts, local amphibolites and a significant clinopyroxene-rich gabbro within the lower, mafic-dominated part of the greenstone sequence. The diapiric Pigeon Rocks monzogranite intrusive lies to the southwest, and another large granitic body lies to the northeast. About 13 strike kilometres of BIF occur within the more northerly tenements. E77/1168 to the south covers about 1.5km of BIF located 3.5km east along strike from Cliffs' J3 deposit. Preliminary exploration has shown the BIF is jaspilitic with a significant silica content.

Between 1961 and 1969, WMC conducted exploration within the Die Hardy Ranges which identified extensive areas of BIF with enhanced iron contents of the order of 40% to 45% Fe. Although clearly not economic at the time, these grades are very much higher than unenriched BIF and today might represent a high grade magnetite target. Reconnaissance exploration for hematite-goethite mineralisation was undertaken by Polaris in October/November 2009 on nearby tenements. Patchy and discontinuous outcrops of goethite were identified in a number of locations, and thirty three rock chip samples collected and assayed. The results of WMC's work and the more recent efforts of Polaris and Transit did not identify any areas with potential for significant near-surface hematitegoethite mineralisation.

Field mapping in 2010 identified the Lara prospect $-$ a 3.2km long and 200m to 300m wide zone of outcropping coarse grained magnetite within BIF. Initial evaluation showed the strike of the unit to be consistent with that indicated by aeromagnetic data, with three samples of coarse grained magnetite reporting an average of 38% Fe. Initial drilling at Lara is a priority, with, as noted above, the PoW recently approved. The potential for the discovery of further magnetite mineralisation is considered high.

10.3 Evanston Project

Evanston comprises a single granted exploration licence E77/1196 with an area of 8 blocks, or about 24km2, registered in the name of Southern Cross Goldfields Ltd. Iron ore rights

within the tenement have been assigned to Radar Resources Pty Ltd. Regional aeromagnetic data indicates the presence of significant magnetite-rich BIF, however, only limited field work has been completed, and further assessment is justified.

11 Proposed Exploration Programs

Radar is intending to raise up to \$8.0M, with a minimum subscription of \$5.0M. Costs associated with the IPO and capital raising are anticipated to be about \$600,000. Additional funds raised from seed capital are about \$500,000. Work programs and budgets have been developed which anticipate expenditure of about 70% of the net funds raised. The proposed exploration encompasses:

  • Surface mapping, sampling and drilling evaluation of the geophysical targets identified by SGC.
  • $\blacksquare$ Re-evaluation of prospects showing evidence of hematite/goethite mineralisation at surface that have not yet been drill tested. These include Holyoake, Rowling, Muldoon Central and Johnston Range North.
  • $\blacksquare$ Further mapping and sampling over structural targets.
  • Assessment of the Evanston and Die Hardy projects.
  • Assessment of the magnetite potential within the Tenements. $\blacksquare$

The proposed programs and budgets are summarised in Table 3.

The split of expenditure between categories, and between projects will be contingent upon progressive results as the work programs advance. The nature, location, timing and division of costs for the programs will also be contingent upon land access and other factors. CSA has reviewed the proposed exploration programs and considers the exploration approach appropriate. It is CSA's opinion that the proposed work programs and expenditure are justified in light of the results of the limited exploration conducted to date, the targets generated by the geophysical interpretations and the prospectivity of the tenements for both surface-enriched hematite-goethite and magnetite deposits.

  1. INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT'S REPORT

4 November 2010

The Board of Directors Radar Iron Ltd Suite 2, 12 Parliament Place WEST PERTH WA 6005

Dear Sirs

Investigating Accountant's Report – Radar Iron Ltd

1. Introduction

This Investigating Accountant's Report (the "Report") has been prepared at the request of the Directors of Radar Iron Ltd ("Radar" or "the Company") for inclusion in a Prospectus to be dated on or around 4 November 2010 (the "Prospectus").

The Prospectus will offer up to 30,000,000 shares at an issue price of 20 cents each to raise \$6,000,000 before costs. The Company may accept oversubscriptions for up to 10,000,000 shares to raise a further \$2,000,000. The maximum amount that may be raised under the Prospectus is therefore \$8,000,000 before costs ("Maximum Subscription"). The minimum subscription is 25,000,000 shares to raise \$5,000,000 before costs ("Minimum Subscription").

2. Basis of Preparation

This Report has been prepared to provide investors with information on the historical financial position of the Company and the pro forma historical statement of financial position at 30 September 2010 as noted in Appendix 1. The pro forma historical statement of financial position is presented in an abbreviated form insofar as it does not include all of the disclosures required by the Australian Accounting Standards applicable to annual financial reports in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001.

This Report does not address the rights attaching to the shares to be issued in accordance with the Prospectus, nor the risk associated with the investment, and has been prepared based on the complete offer being achieved. MGI Perth Corporate Finance Pty Ltd ("MGICF") has not been requested to consider the prospects for the Company, the shares on offer and related pricing issues, nor the merits and risks associated with becoming a shareholder and accordingly, has not done so, nor purport to do so. MGICF accordingly takes no responsibility for these matters or for any matter or omission in the Prospectus, other than responsibility for this Report. Risk factors are set out in Section 11 of the Prospectus.

Expressions defined in the Prospectus have the same meaning in this report.

3. Background

The Company was incorporated on 21 September 2010 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Transit Holdings Limited ("Transit"), a listed entity on the ASX. The Company has signed a Share Sale Agreement with Transit to acquire 100% of the shares in Radar Resources Pty Ltd. The transaction is subject to Transit shareholder approval at a meeting to be held on 26 November 2010. Radar Resources currently holds exploration tenements in the Yilgarn Iron Ore Province located in Western Australia. These tenements are prospective for iron ore.

As consideration, the Company will issue 22,690,612 ordinary shares and 12,000,000 options to Transit and will pay an amount of \$120,000 from the proceeds of the IPO – please refer to Section 10 of the Prospectus for more information on the Share Sale Agreement.

Key personnel of Radar include:

  • Mr Alan Tough (Non-executive Chairman)
  • Mr Johnathan Lea (Managing Director)
  • Mr Ananda Kathiravelu (Non- executive Director)

4. Scope

We have reviewed the pro forma historical statement of financial position in order to report whether anything has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the pro forma historical statement of financial position, as set out in Appendix 1 of the Report, does not present fairly the pro forma historical statement of financial position at 30 September 2010, on the basis of preparation, accounting policies and the pro forma transactions and/or adjustments described in Appendix 2, and in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements (but not all of the disclosure requirements) of Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board.

The historical financial information set out in Appendix 1 to this Report has been extracted from the unaudited management accounts of the Company for the period ended 30 September 2010.

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the historical financial information including the determination of the pro forma transactions and/or adjustments.

We have conducted our review of the pro forma historical statement of financial position in accordance with Australian Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2405 "Review of historical financial information other than a financial report". We made enquiries and performed such procedures as we, in our professional judgment, considered reasonable in the circumstances, including:

  • A review of the unaudited management accounts for the period ended 30 September 2010;
  • Analytical procedures on the pro forma historical statement of financial position;
  • Consideration of the pro forma transactions/or adjustments made to the historical statement of financial position at 30 September 2010;
  • Enquiry of directors, management and others;
  • Review of contractual arrangements; and
  • A review of work papers, accounting records and other documents.

Our review was limited primarily to an examination of the historical financial information, the pro forma financial information, analytical review procedures and discussions with both management and directors. A review of this nature provides less assurance than an audit and, accordingly, this Report does not express an audit opinion on the historical information or pro forma financial information included in this Report or elsewhere in the Prospectus.

In relation to the information presented in this Report:

  • support by another person, corporation or an unrelated entity has not been assumed;
  • the amounts shown in respect of assets do not purport to be the amounts that would have been realised if the assets were sold at the date of this Report; and
  • the going concern basis of accounting has been adopted.

5. Conclusion:

(a) Historical statement of financial position

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the historical statement of financial position, as set out in Appendix 1 of this Report is not presented fairly in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements (but not all of the disclosure requirements) of Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations).

(b) Pro-forma historical statement of financial position

Based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the pro-forma historical statement of financial position, as set out in Appendix 1 of this report, is not properly drawn up in accordance with the basis of preparation, accounting policies and pro forma adjustments described in Appendix 2 and the recognition and measurement requirements (but not all of the disclosure requirements) of Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) as if the pro forma transactions had occurred on that date.

6. Subsequent events

Apart from the matters dealt with in this report and having regard to the scope of our Report, to the best of our knowledge and belief, no material transactions or events outside of the ordinary course of business of Radar have come to our attention that would require comment on, or adjustment to, the information referred to in our Report or that would cause such information to be misleading or deceptive.

7. Independence, Disclosure of interest and Consent

MGICF does not have any interest in the outcome of the listing of the shares, other than in connection with the preparation of this Report for which normal professional fees will be received. MGICF does not hold nor has any interest in the ordinary shares of the Company.

8. Responsibility

MGICF was not involved in the preparation of any part of the Prospectus, and accordingly, makes no representations or warranties as to the completeness and accuracy of any information contained in any other part of the Prospectus.

MGICF consents to the inclusion of this Report in the Prospectus in the form and context in which it is included. At the date of this Report, this consent has not been withdrawn.

9. General advice warning

This Report has been prepared, and included in the Prospectus, to provide investors with general information only and does not take into account the objectives, financial situation or needs of any specific investor. It is not intended to take the place of professional advice and investors should not make specific investment decisions in reliance on the information contained in this Report. Before acting or relying on any information, an investor should consider whether it is appropriate for their circumstances having regard to their objectives, financial situation or needs.

Yours sincerely

The pro forma historical statement of financial position is to be read in conjunction with the notes to and forming part of the pro forma historical statement of financial position in Appendix 2.

APPENDIX 2 RADAR IRON LTD NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE PRO FORMA STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the historical and the pro forma historical statement of financial position are:

(a) Basis of preparation of pro forma historical statement of financial position

The pro forma historical statement of financial position and notes have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards and Accounting Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board.

The pro forma historical statement of financial position is presented in a condensed form and does not contain all the disclosures that are usually provided in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001.

The pro forma historical statement of financial position has been prepared on an accruals basis, are based on historical cost and except where stated does not take into account changing money values or current valuations of non-current assets. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

(b) Principles of consolidation

Subsidiaries

The pro forma historical statement of financial position comprises the assets and liabilities of Radar Iron Ltd and its subsidiary, Radar Resources Pty Ltd, at 30 September 2010 (the "Group"). A subsidiary is any entity controlled by Radar Iron Ltd.

Subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Company controls another entity.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Parent Company, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.

All inter-company balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from intra-entity transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the individual financial statements of Radar Iron Ltd.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Where there is a loss of control of a subsidiary, the consolidated financial statements include the results for the part of the reporting period which Radar Iron Ltd has control.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting involves recognising at acquisition date, separately from goodwill, the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at their acquisition date fair values (see note 1(h)).

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a loss of control is accounted for as an equity transaction.

Non-controlling interests are allocated their share of net profit after tax in the statement of comprehensive income and are presented within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from the equity of the owners of the parent.

Losses are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:

  • Derecognises the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary.
  • Derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest.
  • Derecognises the cumulative translation differences, recorded in equity.
  • Recognises the fair value of the consideration received.
  • Recognises the fair value of any investment retained.
  • Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss.
  • Reclassifies the parent's share of components previously recognised in other comprehensive income to profit or loss.

(c) Income tax

The income tax expense or benefit for the year is the tax payable on the current year's taxable income based on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident subsidiary have not formed a taxconsolidated Group as at balance sheet date.

(d) Goods and service tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax ("GST"), except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authorities, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense item as applicable and receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are included in the Cash Flow Statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

(e) Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the Group provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivables. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the balance date which are classified as non-current assets.

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

(f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.

For the purposes of the Cash Flow Statement cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

(g) Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure

Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is either written off as incurred or accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. Costs are only carried forward to the extent that right of tenure is current and those costs are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area (or, alternatively by its sale) or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage which permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves and operations in relation to the area are continuing.

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the period in which the decision to abandon the area is made.

When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.

(h) Impairment of assets

Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Group makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount the asset or cash generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value less costs to sell and it does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit (group of assets) to which the asset belongs.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

(i) Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

Trade and other payables are stated at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

(j) Issued capital

Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.

(k) Share Based Payments

The Group provides payment to related parties in the form of share-based compensation, whereby related parties render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares ("equity-settled transactions"). The cost of these equity-settled transactions is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using either a Binomial or Black & Scholes methodology depending on the nature of the option terms.

The Binomial option pricing model uses an iterative procedure, allowing for the specification of nodes, or points in time, during the time span between the valuation date and the option's expiration date. It assumes that underlying security prices can only either increase or decrease with time until the option expires.

The Binomial model reduces possibilities of price changes, removes the possibility for arbitrage, assumes a perfectly efficient market, and shortens the duration of the option. Under these simplifications, it is able to provide a mathematical valuation of the option at each point in time specified. The Binomial model takes a risk-neutral approach to valuation.

The Black & Scholes option pricing model takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option.

The fair value of the options granted is adjusted to reflect market vesting conditions, but excludes the impact of any non market vesting conditions. Non market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. At each balance sheet date, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected become exercisable.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant parties become fully entitled to the award ("vesting date").

The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion of the Directors of the Group, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.

Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification.

2. Pro forma adjustments

(a) Proceeds from seed capital raising

The Company raised seed capital by issuing 4,750,000 shares at 10 cents a share.

(b) Acquisition of Radar Resources Pty Ltd

Subject to Transit's shareholder approval, the Company will acquire 100% of Radar Resources' share capital from Transit Holdings Ltd via a Share Sale Agreement. Please refer to Section 10 of the Prospectus for more information.

The acquisition was funded by:

  • Issuing 22,690,612 shares at approximately \$0.011 a share;
  • Issuing 12,000,000 options valued at \$0.056 an option; and
  • \$120,000 in cash from the proceeds of the capital raising.

The net assets acquired are represented by the following:

\$
Cash and cash equivalents 28,914
Trade and other receivables 4
Exploration and evaluation expenditure 561,857
Trade and other payables (29,979)
Deferred tax liabilities (127,131)
Net assets acquired 433,665

(c) Acquisition of tenements from Vendor

The Company issued 200,000 shares at 20 cents a share to an unrelated third party under the Tenement sale agreement – Copper Bore (Tenement E77/1375). Please refer to Section 10 of the Prospectus for more information.

(d) Proceeds from share issue

The Company intends to issue up to 30,000,000 shares at 20 cents each to raise capital of \$6,000,000 before costs.

The Company may accept oversubscriptions for up to 10,000,000 shares to raise a further \$2,000,000. The maximum amount that may be raised under the Prospectus is therefore \$8,000,000 before costs. The minimum subscription is 25,000,000 shares to raise \$5,000,000 before costs.

(e) Capital raising cost

The transaction costs of an equity transaction are accounted for as a deduction from the equity raised in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards. The capital raising costs represent registration and other regulatory fees, legal, accounting and other professional fees and printing costs.

The transaction cost based on the amount raised is as follows:

  • To raise \$6,000,000 the transaction cost is \$1,277,600
  • To raise \$8,000,000 the transaction cost is \$1,756,400 (maximum subscription)
  • To raise \$5,000,000 the transaction cost is \$1,217,600 (minimum subscription.

The transaction costs are settled in a combination of cash and options.

  1. SOLICITOR'S REPORT ON TENEMENTS

3 November 2010

Radar Iron Ltd Suite 2, 12 Parliament Place WEST PERTH WA 6005

Dear Sirs

SOLICITOR'S REPORT ON TENEMENTS

This Report is prepared for inclusion in a prospectus for the issue of up to 30,000,000 shares in the capital of Radar Iron Ltd (Company) at an issue price of 20 cents per share to raise up to \$6,000,000 with provision to raise a further \$2,000,000 in oversubscriptions (Prospectus).

1. SCOPE

We have been requested to report on certain mining tenements in which the Company and its proposed wholly owned subsidiary, Radar Resources Pty Ltd, have an interest (the Tenements).

The Tenements are located in Western Australia. Details of the Tenements are set out in Part I of the attached Schedule, which forms part of this Report.

2. SEARCHES

For the purposes of this Report, we have conducted searches and made enquiries in respect of all of the Tenements as follows:

  • (a) we have obtained searches of the Tenements from the registers maintained by the Western Australian Department of Industry and Resources (DOIR). These searches were conducted on 1 October 2010. Key details on the status of the Tenements are set out in Part I of the Schedule;
  • (b) we have undertaken searches for registered native title claims and native title determinations that may apply to the Tenements, as determined by the National Native Title Tribunal (NNTT). These searches were undertaken on 4 October 2010 and revealed that there are currently no native title claims relating to the Tenements. Details of the

law as it relates to native title claims and determinations are set out in Section 7 of this Report; and

(c) we have reviewed all material agreements relating to the Tenements provided to us or registered as dealings against the Tenements as at the date of the DOIR searches and have summarised the material terms (details of which are set out in Section 10 of the Prospectus).

3. OPINION

As a result of our searches and enquiries, but subject to the assumptions and qualifications set out in this Report, we are of the view that, as at the date of the relevant searches:

  • (a) (Company's Interest): this Report provides an accurate statement as to the interest of the Company and Radar Resources Pty Ltd in the Tenements;
  • (b) (Good Standing): this Report provides an accurate statement as to the validity and good standing of the Tenements; and
  • (c) (Third party interests): this Report provides an accurate statement as to third party interests, including encumbrances, in relation to the Tenements.

4. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Subject to the qualifications and assumptions in this Report, we consider the following to be material issues in relation to the Tenements.

  • (a) (Radar Resources Pty Ltd): The Company has entered into an agreement with Transit Holdings Ltd to acquire 100% of the shares in Radar Resources Pty Ltd. Radar Resources Pty Ltd is the entity with the rights to the Tenements.
  • (b) (Granted Tenements): At present, and Radar Resources Pty Ltd is the direct holder of E77/1280 and E77/1281. In addition, Radar Resources Pty Ltd has an interest (through the material contracts summarised in Section 10 of the Prospectus) in the following Tenements which have been validly granted and are held by the parties outlined below:
  • (i) E77/1164, E77/1168, E77/1196, P77/3458 and P77/3459 currently held by Southern Cross Goldfields Ltd; and
  • (ii) E77/1375 currently held by Polaris Metals Pty Ltd and Vernon Wesley Strange.
  • (c) (Applications for Tenements): A summary of the position with respect to the Tenement applications is as follows:
  • (i) Tenement applications E77/1806 and E77/1807 (held by Transit Holdings Ltd and Radar Resources Pty Ltd, respectively) are subject to a competing application process with third parties for a single exploration licence. The grant of the exploration licence sought will be done via a ballot. Consequently, the exploration licence may be granted in favour of a third party, in which case the Company will not be able to undertake exploration activities on E77/1806 or E77/1807;

  • (ii) the Tenement applications for P77/3460, P77/3461 and P77/3462 are currently held by Radar Resources Pty Ltd, which will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company on settlement of the agreement summarised in Section 10.1 of the Prospectus; and

  • (iii) the applicant for P77/3460, P77/3461 and P77/3462 is Terra Firma Investments Pty Ltd. Radar Resources Pty Ltd will be transferred these tenements when granted by virtue of the agreements summarised in Section 10.7 and 10.8 of the Prospectus).
  • (d) (Rent / Expenditure): The Company has met all expenditure obligations for all granted Tenements except for E77/1168. If expenditure requirements are not met in regard to this Tenement it could be at risk of forfeiture.
  • (e) (Third party interests): Under the Polaris Option Agreement (summarised in Section 10.2 of the Prospectus); Radar Resources Pty Ltd (along with Polaris Metals NL) is required to pay to Vernon Wesley Strange a royalty of \$1.00 per tonne of iron ore mined for the first 150,000 tonnes of iron ore mined each year from the E77/1375 Tenement.

Under the Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement (summarised in Section 10.3 of the Prospectus)), if the interest held by Polaris Metals NL decreases below 5%, Radar Resources Pty Ltd will be liable to pay Polaris Metals NL, at their election, a royalty of 0.5% of net smelter returns from the date of election (being the date that the party managing the joint venture receives notice from the party electing to take the Royalty) on iron ore mined each year from the E77/1375 Tenement.

Under the Acquisition Letter Agreement (summarised in Section 10.6 of the Prospectus), Radar Resources Pty Ltd is required to pay a royalty to Mr Adam Hill and Mr Frank Hill of 1.5% of the net profit of minerals mined from the E77/1280 and E77/1281 Tenements.

  • (f) (Caveats): Tenement E77/1375 is subject to a caveat for the benefit of Southern Cross Goldfields Pty Ltd which means that any dealing in regards to the Tenement is subject to the Company discharging the caveat.
  • (g) (Native Title): Currently, there are no native title claims that relate to the Tenements contained in Part I of the Schedule.
  • (h) (Iron Ore Authorisation): Each of the granted Exploration Licences (EL77/1280, EL77/1281, EL77/1375, EL77/1164, EL77/1168 and EL77/1196) has an authorisation to explore for iron ore in accordance with Section 111 of the Mining Act 1978 (WA) (Mining Act). The granted Prospecting Licences (P77/3458 and P773459) do not currently have an authorisation to explore for iron ore. An application will need to be made under Section 111 of the Mining Act in order for the Company to be able explore for iron on these Prospecting Licences and any tenements that are granted in respect of the Tenement applications identified in Part 1 of the Schedule.

5. DESCRIPTION OF THE TENEMENTS

The granted Tenements comprise exploration and prospecting licenses granted under the Mining Act. Part I of the Schedule provides a list of the Tenements. The following provides a description of the nature and key terms of these types of mining tenements as set out in the Mining Act.

5.1 Exploration Licence

Application: A person may lodge an application for an exploration licence and the Minister decides whether to grant the application. An application for an exploration licence (unless a reversion application) cannot be legally transferred and continues in the name of the applicant.

Rights: The holder of an exploration licence is entitled to enter the land and undertake operations for the purposes of exploration for minerals.

Term: An exploration licence has a term of 5 years from the date of grant. The Minister may extend the term where:

  • the exploration licence was granted before 10 February 2006, by a further period or periods of 1 or 2 years; and
  • the exploration licence was granted after 10 February 2006, by a further period of 5 years followed by a further period or periods of 2 years.

Where an exploration licence is transferred before a renewal application has been determined, the transferee is deemed to be the applicant.

Retention Status: The holder of an exploration licence granted after 10 February 2006 may apply for approval of retention status for the exploration licence. The Minister may approve the application where there is an identified mineral resource within the exploration licence but it is impractical to mine the resource for prescribed reasons. Where retention status is granted, the minimum expenditure requirements are reduced in the year of grant and cease in future years. However, the Minister has the right to impose a programme of works or require the holder to apply for a mining lease. The holder of an exploration licence applied for or granted before 10 February 2006, can apply for a retention licence (see below).

Conditions: Exploration licences are granted subject to various standard conditions, including conditions relating to minimum expenditure, the payment of prescribed rent and royalties and observance of environmental protection and reporting requirements. A failure to comply with these conditions may lead to forfeiture of the exploration licence.

Relinquishment: The holder of an exploration licence granted or applied for before 10 February 2006 must relinquish not less than half of the blocks comprising the licence at the end of the third year. A further relinquishment of not less than half of the remaining blocks is required at the end of the fourth year. The holder of an exploration licence applied for and granted after 10 February 2006 must relinquish not less than 40% of the blocks comprising the licence at the end of the fifth year.

Priority to apply for Mining Lease: The holder of an exploration licence has priority to apply for a mining lease over any of the land subject to the exploration licence. Any application for a mining lease must be made prior to the expiry of the exploration licence. The exploration licence remains in force until the application for the mining lease is determined.

Transfer: No legal or equitable interest in an exploration licence can be transferred or otherwise dealt with during the first year of its term without the prior written consent of the Minister. Thereafter, there is no restriction on transfer or other dealing.

Reversion Application: The Mining Act allowed the holder of an exploration licence who had applied for a mining lease before 10 February 2006 to lodge an application between 11 February 2006 and 10 February 2007 for an exploration licence or prospecting licence in lieu of the grant of the mining lease. The Mining Act provides that reversion applications are deemed to be transferred to a transferee of the underlying exploration licence.

5.2 Prospecting Licence

Application: A person may lodge an application for a prospecting licence in accordance with the Mining Act. The mining registrar or warden decides whether to grant an application for a prospecting licence. An application for a prospecting licence (unless a reversion application) cannot be legally transferred and continues in the name of the applicant.

Rights: The holder of a prospecting licence is entitled to enter the land and undertake operations for the purposes of prospecting for minerals.

Term: A prospecting licence has a term of 4 years. Where the prospecting licence was applied for and granted after 10 February 2006, the Minister may extend the term by 4 years and if retention status is granted (as discussed below), by a further term or terms of 4 years. Where a prospecting licence is transferred before a renewal application has been determined, the transferee is deemed to be the applicant.

Retention Status: The holder of a prospecting licence applied for and granted after 10 February 2006 may apply for approval of retention status for the prospecting licence. The Minister may approve the application where there is an identified mineral resource within the prospecting licence, but it is impractical to mine the resource for prescribed reasons. Where retention status is granted, the minimum expenditure requirements are reduced in the year of grant and cease in future years. However, the Minister has the right to impose a programme of works or require the holder to apply for a mining lease. The holder of a prospecting licence applied for or granted before 10 February 2006 can apply for a retention licence (see below).

Conditions: Prospecting licences are granted subject to various standard conditions including conditions relating to minimum expenditure, the payment of rent and observance of environmental protection and reporting requirements. These standard conditions are not detailed in the Schedule. A failure to comply with these conditions may lead to forfeiture of the prospecting licence.

Priority to apply for a Mining Lease: The holder of a prospecting licence has priority to apply for a mining lease over any of the land subject to the prospecting licence. An application for a mining lease must be made prior to the expiry of the prospecting licence. The prospecting licence remains in force until the application for the mining lease is determined.

Transfer: There is no restriction on transfer or other dealing in a prospecting licence.

Reversion Application: The Mining Act allowed the holder of a prospecting licence who had applied for a mining lease before 10 February 2006 to lodge an application between 11 February 2006 and 10 February 2007 for an exploration licence or prospecting licence in lieu of the grant of the mining lease. The Mining Act provides that reversion applications are deemed to be transferred to a transferee of the underlying prospecting licence.

5.3 Section 111 of the Mining Act

Section 111 of the Mining Act states that in lieu of written authorisation from the Minister, the holder of a prospecting or exploration licence is not authorised to prospect or explore for iron on the tenement.

Each of the granted Exploration Licences (EL77/1280, EL77/1281, EL77/1375, EL77/1164, EL77/1168 and EL77/1196) has an authorisation to explore for iron ore in accordance with Section 111 of the Mining Act. The granted Prospecting Licences (P77/3458 and P773459) do not currently have an authorisation to explore for iron ore. An application will need to be made under Section 111 of the Mining Act in order for the Company to be able explore for iron on these Prospecting Licences and any tenements that are granted in respect of the Tenement applications identified in Part 1 of the Schedule.

6. ABORIGINAL HERITAGE

There are areas or objects of Aboriginal heritage located on the Tenements.

We have undertaken searches with the Department of Indigenous Affairs. Those searches indicate that some of the Tenements contain Aboriginal heritage sites. Details of the Aboriginal heritage sites are contained within Part I of the Schedule below.

The Company must ensure that it does not breach the Commonwealth and applicable State legislation relating to Aboriginal heritage as set out below. To ensure that it does not contravene such legislation, it would be prudent for the Company (and it would accord with industry practice and Aboriginal expectations) to conduct heritage surveys to determine if any Aboriginal sites or objects exist within the area of the Tenements. Any interference with these sites or objects must be in strict conformity with the provisions of the relevant legislation. It may also be necessary for the Company to enter into separate arrangements with the traditional owners of the sites.

6.1 Commonwealth Legislation

The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Heritage Protection Act 1984 (Cth) (Commonwealth Heritage Act) is aimed at the preservation and protection of any Aboriginal areas and objects that may be located on the Tenements.

Under the Commonwealth Heritage Act, the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs may make interim or permanent declarations of preservation in relation to significant Aboriginal areas or objects, which have the potential to halt exploration activities. Compensation is payable by the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs to a person who is, or is likely to be, affected by a permanent declaration of preservation.

It is an offence to contravene a declaration made under the Commonwealth Heritage Act.

6.2 Western Australian Legislation

Tenements are granted subject to a condition requiring observance of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) (WA Heritage Act).

The WA Heritage Act makes it an offence to alter or damage sacred ritual or ceremonial Aboriginal sites and areas of significance to Aboriginal persons.

The Minister's consent is required where any use of land is likely to result in the excavation, alteration or damage to an Aboriginal site or any objects on or under that site.

Aboriginal sites may be registered under the WA Heritage Act. However, there is no requirement for a site to be registered and the WA Heritage Act protects all registered and unregistered sites.

7. NATIVE TITLE

7.1 Introduction

Currently there are no native title claims that relate to the Tenements contained within Part I of the Schedule. Notwithstanding this, set out below is a summary of the law relating to native title and how it relates to tenements in general.

The existence of native title rights held by indigenous Australians was first recognised in Australia in 1992 by the High Court in the case Mabo v. Queensland (no.2) (1992) 175 CLR 1 (Mabo no.2).

Mabo no. 2 held that certain land tenure existing as at the date of that case, including mining tenements, where granted or renewed without due regard to native title rights, were invalid.

As a result of Mabo no. 2, the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) (NTA) was passed to:

  • (a) provide a process for indigenous people to lodge claims for native title rights over land, for those claims to be registered by the National Native Title Tribunal (NNTT) and for the Courts to assess native title claims and determine if native title rights exist. Where a Court completes the assessment of a native title claim, it will issue a native title determination that specifies whether or not native title rights exist;
  • (b) provide (together with associated State legislation) that any land tenures granted or renewed before 1 January 1994 were valid despite Mabo no. 2. This retrospective validation of land tenure was subsequently extended by the NTA to include freehold and certain leasehold (including pastoral leases) granted or renewed before 23 December 1996; and
  • (c) provide that an act that may affect native title rights (such as the grant or renewal of a mining tenement) carried out after 23 December 1996 (a Future Act) must comply with certain requirements for the Future Act to be valid under the NTA. These requirements are called the Future Act Provisions.

The Future Act Provisions are summarised in Section 7.2 below, following which the Report identifies:

  • (a) native title claims and determinations that are registered against the Tenements (see Section 7.3);
  • (b) Tenements which have been retrospectively validated under the NTA as being granted before 23 December 1996 (see Section 7.4);
  • (c) Tenements which have been granted after 23 December 1996 and as such will need to have been granted following compliance with the Future Act Provisions to be valid under the NTA. This Report assumes that the Future Act Provisions have been complied with in relation to these Tenements (see Section 7.4); and
  • (d) Tenements which are yet to be granted and which may need to comply with the Future Act Provisions in order to be valid under the NTA (see Section 7.4).

Note that the grant of a Tenement does not need to comply with the Future Act Provisions if in fact native title has never existed over the land covered by the Tenement, or has been validly extinguished prior to the grant of the Tenement. We have not undertaken the extensive research needed to determine if in fact native title does not exist, or has been validly extinguished in relation to the Tenements.

Unless it is clear that native title does not exist (eg in relation to freehold land), the usual practice of the State is to comply with the Future Act Provisions when granting a Tenement. This ensures the grant will be valid in the event a court determines that native title rights do exist over the land subject to the Tenement and as such, the Future Act Provisions apply.

Where a Tenement has been retrospectively validated or validly granted under the NTA, the rights under the Tenement prevail over any inconsistent native title rights.

7.2 Future Act Provisions

The Future Act Provisions vary depending on the Future Act to be carried out. In the case of the grant of a mining tenement, typically there are three alternatives: the Right to Negotiate, an Indigenous Land Use Agreement (ILUA) and the Expedited Procedure. These are summarised below.

Right to Negotiate

The Right to Negotiate involves a formal negotiation between the State, the applicant for the Tenement and any registered native title claimants and holders of native title rights. The aim is to agree the terms on which the Tenement can be granted. The applicant for the Tenement is usually liable for any compensation that the parties agree to pay to the registered native title claimants and holders of native title. The parties may also agree on conditions that will apply to activities carried out on the Tenement (eg in relation to heritage surveys).

If agreement is not reached to enable the Tenement to be granted, the matter may be referred to arbitration before the NNTT, which has six (6) months to decide whether the Tenement can be granted and if so, on what conditions. The NNTT usually requires the parties to have had at least 6 months of negotiations before it will accept a referral for arbitration.

ILUA

An ILUA is a contractual arrangement governed by the NTA. Under the NTA, an ILUA must be negotiated with all registered native title claimants for a relevant area. The State and the applicant for the Tenement are usually the other parties to the ILUA.

An ILUA must set out the terms on which a tenement can be granted. An ILUA will also specify conditions on which activities may be carried out within the tenement. The applicant for a tenement is usually liable for any compensation that the parties agree to pay to the registered native title claimants and holders of native title in return for the grant of the Tenement being approved. These obligations pass to a transferee of the tenement.

Once an ILUA is agreed and registered, it binds the whole native title claimant group and all holders of native title in the area (including future claimants), even though they may not be parties to it.

Expedited Procedure

The NTA establishes a simplified process for the carrying out of a Future Act that is unlikely to adversely affect native title rights (Expedited Procedure). The grant of a tenement can occur under the Expedited Procedure if:

  • (a) the grant will not interfere directly with the carrying on of the community or social activities of the persons who are the holders of native title in relation to the land;
  • (b) the grant is not likely to interfere with areas or sites of particular significance, in accordance with their traditions, to the persons who are holders of native title in relation to the land; and
  • (c) the grant is not likely to involve major disturbance to any land or waters concerned or create rights whose exercise is likely to involve major disturbance to any land.

If the State considers the above criteria are satisfied, it commences the Expedited Procedure by giving notice of the proposed grant of the Tenement in accordance with the NTA. Persons have until three (3) months after the notification date to take steps to become a registered native title claimant or native title holder in relation to the land to be subject to the Tenement.

If there is no objection lodged by a registered native title claimant or a native title holder within four (4) months of the notification date, the State may grant the Tenement.

If one or more registered native title claimants or native title holders object within that four (4) month notice period, the NNTT must determine whether the grant is an act attracting the Expedited Procedure. If the NNTT determines that the Expedited Procedure applies, the State may grant the Tenement. Otherwise, the Future Act Provisions (eg Right to Negotiate or ILUA) must be followed before the Tenement can be granted.

The State of Western Australia currently follows a policy of granting prospecting and exploration licenses under the Expedited Procedure where the applicant has entered into a standard aboriginal heritage agreement with the relevant registered native title claimants and native title holders. The standard heritage agreement (and ancillary agreements) usually provide for payment of compensation by the applicant for the tenement and conditions that apply to activities carried out within the tenement.

7.3 Registered Native Title Claims and Determinations

Our searches indicate that the Tenements are not subject to any native title claims and determinations.

8. QUALIFICATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS

This Report is subject to the following qualifications and assumptions:

  • (a) we have assumed the accuracy and completeness of all Tenement searches, register extracts and other information or responses which were obtained from the relevant department or authority including the NNTT;
  • (b) we assume that the registered holder of a Tenement has valid legal title to the Tenement;
  • (c) this Report does not cover any third party interests, including encumbrances, in relation to the Tenements that are not apparent from our searches and the information provided to us;

Upon the exercise of the Option, the Option Agreement stipulates that Polaris and VWS will enter into an unincorporated joint venture under which Polaris will hold a 95% beneficial interest and VWS will hold a 5% beneficial interest. In addition, VWS shall have a right to a mining royalty of \$1.00 per tonne for the first 150,000 tonnes of ore mined in each mining year.

Polaris exercised the Option by way of letter agreement dated 2 February 2004.

On 30 January 2008, E77/1375 (Copper Bore Tenement) was granted to Polaris (95% interest) and VWS (5% interest) pursuant to a special conversion of the following mining lease applications M77/1176, M77/1177, M77/1178 and M77/1179 (Mineral Leases), the Mineral Leases were granted pursuant to a conversion (discontinued) of E77/1104 and E77/1126 which formed part of the Strange Tenements.

The Copper Bore Tenement is now the only Tenement that is governed by the Option Agreement, Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement and Copper Bore Joint Venture Deed of Assignment and Covenant (set out below).

10.3 Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement

On 19 November 2003, Polaris entered into a joint venture agreement with Liberty Gold NL (now Liberty Resources Limited) (Liberty) and VWS in relation to the Strange Tenements (including the Copper Bore Tenement) (Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement).

As noted in Section 10.2 above, this agreement now only covers the Copper Bore Tenement.

Under the Deed of Assumption and Assignment dated 31 July 2006, Liberty agreed to assign its rights, interests and remedies under the Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement to Radar Resources Pty Ltd (Radar Resources). The participating interests of the parties are 60% interest held by Radar Resources and 40% interest held by Polaris.

Due to Polaris having a 95% interest in the the Copper Bore Tenement, Radar Resources is entitled to a 57% interest in the Strange Tenements. The object of the Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement is to conduct exploration, feasibility studies, development and mining on or in respect of the the Copper Bore Tenement and treatment of minerals mined from the Copper Bore Tenement.

(Expenditure and Work to be Completed): Radar Resources is solely responsible for incurring sufficient expenditure on the Copper Bore Tenement each year so as to maintain the Copper Bore Tenement in good standing and to comply with the prescribed expenditure conditions applicable to them and to pay all rentals and rates as and when they fall due in respect of the Copper Bore Tenement. Radar Resources shall have the sole responsibility of complying with the Option Agreement (above).

(Withdrawal): Radar Resources or Polaris may withdraw from the Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement by giving not less than 10 business days written notice to the Manager (the party who holds the largest interest in the Copper Bore Tenement i.e. Radar Resources), who must immediately notify the other party/parties. The other party/parties may then serve notice on Radar Resources that they also wish to withdraw from the Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement. If, as a consequence all parties withdraw, the Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement will be treated as terminated and each party will be liable to contribute to the costs of relinquishing the Copper Bore Tenement.

A withdrawing party must transfer its interest in the Copper Bore Tenement to the non-withdrawing party for no monetary consideration. If Radar Resources is a withdrawing party then it must, within 20 business days of the effective date of its withdrawal, provide to Polaris a comprehensive report on its activities on the Copper Bore Tenement.

(Elections by Polaris): If Polaris' interest reduces to 5% or less the Manager must give Polaris written notice of the calculation of Polaris' interest and the amount (if any) of a shortfall in Polaris' contributions to expenditure necessary to restore its interest to 5%. If Polaris fails to give notice and pay the amount required to fulfil the shortfall in expenditure, then Polaris will be deemed to have given a notice of withdrawal and Radar Resources will be obligated to pay a royalty to Polaris (being 0.5% of the net smelter return) (Royalty).

(Payment of Royalty): If Polaris elects to be paid the Royalty (being 0.5% of the net smelter return calculated from the date on which ore and/or concentrates are delivered to the refinery) then Radar Resources must pay the Royalty in accordance with the terms of the Copper Bore Joint Venture Agreement. There is no express or implied obligation upon Radar Resources to produce ore or concentrates from the Copper Bore Tenement.

On and from the commencement of the payment of the Royalty, Radar Resources will provide to Polaris and/or VWS a written statement of the calculation of the Royalty on a quarterly basis within 20 days of the end of the quarter.

11 RISK FACTORS

11.1 Introduction

An investment in the Company is not risk free and prospective new investors should consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, before deciding whether to apply for Securities.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company's business. In addition, there are general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and Directors. The risks identified in this section, or other risks factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the shares.

The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

11.2 Risks Specific to the Company

11.2.1 Infrastructure Risk

Iron ore development is largely dependent on access to major infrastructure to enable the export of the bulk commodity. Any development on Radar Iron's tenements will require road and rail haulage and a port with capacity. Haul roads can generally be constructed through a defined approval process. The rail line to the south of the Tenements is publically accessible, subject to capacity constraints that can generally be overcome by increasing passing bays or upgrading the axle weight capacity of the line. Improvements such as these would most likely require a capital contribution from Radar Iron. Iron ore is currently exported through Esperance and is planned to commence from Kwinana (Fremantle Port) in 2011. There is limited capacity for new exporters to access these ports at present without a major capital and capacity upgrade. While there are plans to increase the capacity and hence availability to new bulk commodity exporters at both ports, there is no certainty of these progressing nor on the timing of any such development. Any upgrade is likely to be keenly sought by other potential producers, so even with an increase in capacity there is no certainty of allocation to Radar Iron.

11.2.2 Environmental Risks

The Evanston and Die Hardy Projects lie inside existing conservation parks or proposed conservation and mining reserves. Both forms of tenure currently permit exploration and mining activity subject to the normal approval processes. The current proposed park boundaries were announced by the WA State Government on 1 September 2010 after a comprehensive review. The previous Government had a different approach and, had they remained in Government, it was possible that the portion of the region classified in a manner to prevent mining activity would have been greater.

A change of direction by the current or future State Governments could lock up potential tenure over which Radar currently has access. This could include expansion of proposed park boundaries to include the Johnston Range Project that is currently outside any proposed park or reserve.

In addition, there is potential that approvals for exploration or development in the park and reserve areas will be subject to a higher degree of scrutiny that may take longer and potentially be more costly.

Further, the Company's operations will have an impact on the environment and there are inherent risks associated with safety and damage to the environment and the disposal of waste products.

Please refer to Section 3.1 of the Independent Technical Report for further information.

The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to State and Federal laws and regulations concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company's activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. Priority Flora species have been reported from prior biological surveys of the Tenements. It is the Company's intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.

Mining operations have inherent risks and liabilities associated with safety and damage to the environment and the disposal of waste products occurring as a result of mineral exploration and production. The occurrence of any such safety or environmental incident could delay production or increase production costs. Events, such as unpredictable rainfall or bushfires may impact on the Company's ongoing compliance with environmental legislation, regulations and licences. Significant liabilities could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean up costs or penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous operations or non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations.

The disposal of mining and process waste and mine water discharge are under constant legislative scrutiny and regulation. There is a risk that environmental laws and regulations become more onerous making the Company's operations more expensive.

Approvals are required for land clearing and for ground disturbing activities. Delays in obtaining such approvals can result in the delay to anticipated exploration programmes or mining activities.

11.2.3 Dilution Risk

On completion of the Offers, between 22,750,000 and 25,750,000 Options will be on issue. If these Options are converted into Shares there will be a dilution so that the existing Shareholders will between 69% and 72% of the outstanding issued Shares.

11.2.4 Exploration and Development Success

The Tenements held by the Company as described in this Prospectus have had limited prior exploration, and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are high-risk undertakings.

There can be no assurance that exploration of the Tenements, or any other licenses that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic ore deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

The Company has not yet published resource estimates for any prospects. There is no assurance that exploration or project studies by the Company will result in the definition of an economically viable mineral deposit or that the exploration tonnage estimates and conceptual project developments discussed in this Prospectus are able to be achieved.

The exploration costs of the Company described in the Independent Technical Report are based on certain assumptions with respect to the method and timing of exploration. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the actual costs may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the cost estimates and the underlying assumptions will be realised in practice, which may materially and adversely affect the Company's viability.

In addition, each of the granted Exploration Licences (EL77/1280, EL77/1281, EL77/1375, EL77/1164, EL77/1168 and EL77/1196) in which Radar Resources Pty Ltd has an interest has an authorisation to explore for iron ore in accordance with Section 111 of the Mining Act. The granted Prospecting Licences (P77/3458 and P773459) do not currently have an authorisation to explore for iron ore. The Company will need to obtain authorisation under Section 111 of the Mining Act 1978 (WA) in order to be able explore for iron on these Prospecting Licences and any tenements that are granted in respect of the Tenement applications identified in Solicitor's Report on Tenements. There is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in obtaining such an authorisation.

11.2.5 Title Risks and Native Title

Although the Company has investigated title to all of its Tenements (as detailed in the Tenement Report), the Company cannot give any assurance that title to such Tenements will not be challenged or impugned. The Tenements may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or title may be affected by undetected defects or native title claims.

It is also possible that, in relation to tenements which the Company has an interest in or will in the future acquire such an interest, there may be areas over which legitimate common law native title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If native title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to tenements (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected.

The Directors will closely monitor the potential effect of native title claims involving tenements in which the Company has or may have an interest.

In addition, some of the Tenements in which the Company has or will have an interest (through Radar Resources Pty Ltd) are currently in the application stage. The Company will not be able to commence exploration on these Tenements until they are granted. There is no guarantee that these applications will become granted tenements.

Further, some of the Tenements are subject to agreements with third parties and, in some cases, the Tenements are held by the third parties. If any of these third parties default in their obligations under those agreements, it could make the Tenements liable to forfeiture or otherwise have a detrimental effect on the Company's operations. Please refer to Sections 9 and 10 for further details.

Exploration licences and prospecting licences only permit the Company to undertake exploration on the Tenements. In the event that the Company successfully delineates an economic resource on any of the Tenements, it will need to apply for a mining lease to undertake development and mining on the Tenement. There is no guarantee that the Company will be granted a mining lease if one is applied for.

11.2.6 Tenure and Access

Mining and exploration tenements are subject to periodic renewal. There is no guarantee that current or future tenements or future applications for production tenements will be approved.

The Company's tenements are subject to the Mining Act 1978 (WA). The renewal of the term of a granted tenement is also subject to the discretion of the relevant Minister. Renewal conditions may include increased expenditure and work commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the tenements comprising the Company's projects. The imposition of new conditions or the inability to meet those conditions may adversely affect the operations, financial position and/or performance of the Company.

11.2.7 Failure to Satisfy Expenditure Commitments

Interests in tenements in Western Australia are governed by the Mining Act 1978 (WA) and are evidenced by the granting of licences or leases. Each licence or lease is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose title to or its interest in the Tenements if licence conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet expenditure commitments.

Currently, the minimum annual expenditure commitments for each of the granted Tenements have been met, except for E77/1168 which has had no expenditure lodged for 2010. Details are set out in the Solicitor's Report on Tenements in Section 9 of this Prospectus.

11.2.8 Taxation Risk

Any change in the Company's tax status or the tax applicable to holding Shares or in taxation legislation or its interpretation, could affect the value of the investments held by the Company, affect the Company's ability to provide returns to Shareholders and/or alter the post–tax returns to Shareholders.

11.2.9 Aboriginal Heritage

Archaeological and ethnographic surveys in the Tenements have identified a number of sites of significance which have been registered with the Department of Indigenous Affairs. Approvals are required if these sites will be impacted by exploration or mining activities. Delays in obtaining such approvals can result in the delay to anticipated exploration programmes or mining activities.

11.2.10 Changes in Government Policy

Adverse changes in Federal or Western Australian government policies or legislation may affect ownership of mineral interests, taxation, royalties, land access, labour relations, and mining and exploration activities of the Company. It is possible that the current system of exploration and mine permitting in Western Australia may change, resulting in impairment of rights and possibly expropriation of the Company's properties without adequate compensation. In addition, there is a possibility that the Company's agreements with governments or joint venture partners may be unenforceable against such parties.

11.2.11 Operating Risks

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including failure to locate or identify mineral deposits, failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining, difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment, mechanical failure or plant breakdown, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

No assurances can be given that the Company will achieve commercial viability through the successful exploration and/or mining of its license interests. Until the Company is able to realise value from its projects, it is likely to incur ongoing operating losses.

11.2.12 Resource Estimates

In the event that the Company successfully delineates a JORC compliance resource on any of the Tenements, that resource estimate will be an expression of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates which were valid when originally calculated may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. In addition, by their very nature, resource estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may prove to be inaccurate. As further information becomes available through additional fieldwork and analysis, the estimates are likely to change. This may result in alterations to development and mining plans which may, in turn, adversely affect the Company's operations.

11.2.13 Commodity Price Volatility and Exchange Rate Risks

If the Company achieves success leading to mineral production, the revenue it will derive through the sale of commodities exposes the potential income of the Company to commodity price and exchange rate risks. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by many factors beyond the control of the Company. Such factors include supply and demand fluctuations for precious and base metals, technological advancements, forward selling activities and other macro-economic factors.

Furthermore, international prices of various commodities are denominated in United States dollars, whereas the income and expenditure of the Company are and will be taken into account in Australian currency, exposing the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international markets.

11.2.14 Additional Requirements for Capital

The funds raised under the Offer are considered sufficient to meet the exploration and evaluation objectives of the Company although if only the minimum subscription is raised the Company may not be able to meet the minimum expenditure requirements on some of the Tenements. Additional funding may be required in the event exploration costs exceed the Company's estimates. And to effectively implement its business and operations plans in the future, to take advantage of opportunities for acquisitions, joint ventures or other business opportunities, and to meet any unanticipated liabilities or expenses which the Company may incur, additional financing will be required.

The Company may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures, production sharing arrangements or other means. Failure to obtain sufficient financing for the Company's activities and future projects may result in delay and indefinite postponement of exploration, development or production on the Company's properties or even loss of a property interest. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed or, if available, the terms of the financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to Shareholders.

Further, the Company, in the ordinary course of its operations and developments, is required to issue financial assurances, particularly insurances and bond/bank guarantee instruments to secure statutory and environmental performance undertakings and commercial arrangements. The Company's ability to provide such assurances is subject to external financial and credit market assessment, and its own financial position.

Loan agreements and other financing rearrangements such as debt facilities, convertible note issue and finance leases (and any related guarantee and security) that may be entered into by the Company may contain covenants, undertakings and other provisions which, if breached, may entitle lenders to accelerate repayment of loans and there is no assurance that the Company would be able to repay such loans in the event of an acceleration. Enforcement of any security granted by the Company or default under a finance lease could also result in the loss of assets.

11.2.15 Reliance on Key Personnel

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially on its senior management and its key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

11.2.16 Shareholder Approval

The Offer is conditional on the shareholders in Transit Holdings approving the sale of Radar Resources Pty Ltd to the Company in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.4 at a general meeting of shareholders to be held on 26 November 2010 (or any adjournment of that meeting). There is a risk that this approval may not be obtained, in which case all application monies will be returned to investors.

11.3 General Risks

11.3.1 Insurance Risks

The Company intends to insure its operations in accordance with industry practice. However, in certain circumstances, the Company's insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the Company.

Insurance against all risks associated with mining exploration and production is not always available and where available the costs can be prohibitive.

11.3.2 Competition Risk

The industry in which the Company will be involved is subject to domestic and global competition. Although the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, which activities or actions may, positively or negatively, affect the operating and financial performance of the Company's projects and business.

11.3.3 Regulatory Risk

The Company's mining operations and exploration and development activities are subject to extensive laws and regulations relating to numerous matters including resource licence consent, conditions including environmental compliance and rehabilitation, taxation, employee relations, health and worker safety, waste disposal, protection of the environment, native title and heritage matters, protection of endangered and protected species and other matters. The Company requires permits from regulatory authorities to authorise the Company's operations. These permits relate to exploration, development, production and rehabilitation activities.

Obtaining necessary permits can be a time consuming process and there is a risk that Company will not obtain these permits on acceptable terms, in a timely manner or at all. The costs and delays associated with obtaining necessary permits and complying with these permits and applicable laws and regulations could materially delay or restrict the Company from proceeding with the development of a project or the operation or further development of a mine. Any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or permits, even if inadvertent, could result in material fines, penalties or other liabilities. In extreme cases, failure could result in suspension of the Company's activities or forfeiture of one or more of the Tenements.

11.3.4 Economic Risks

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company's exploration, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

Further, share market conditions may affect the value of the Company's quoted securities regardless of the Company's operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • (a) general economic outlook;
  • (b) interest rates and inflation rates;
  • (c) currency fluctuations;
  • (d) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;
  • (e) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and
  • (f) terrorism or other hostilities.

11.3.5 General Resource Sector Risk

In common with other entities undertaking business in the natural resources sector, certain risks are substantially outside the control of the Company. These risks include abnormal stoppages in production or delivery due to factors such as industrial disruption, major equipment failure, accident, power failure or supply disruption, unforeseen adverse geological or mining conditions and/or changes to predicted ore or mineral quality, the state of supply and demand for gold in Australia and overseas markets and the effect of the gold price, changes in government regulations (including environmental regulations) and government imposts such as royalties, rail freight charges and taxes and risks to land titles, mining titles and the use thereof as a result of native title claim.

11.3.6 Trading Risks

The price at which the Company's Shares trade on ASX after listing may be higher or lower than the Offer price and could be subject to fluctuations in response to variations in operating performance and general operations and business risk, as well as external operating factors over which the Directors and the Company have no control, such as movements in iron ore and exchange rates, changes to government policy, legislation or regulation and other events or factors.

There can be no guarantee that an active market in the Company's Shares will develop or that the price of the Shares will increase.

There may be relatively few or many potential buyers or sellers of the Shares on ASX at any given time. This may increase the volatility of the market price of the Shares. It may also affect the prevailing market price at which Shareholders are able to sell their Shares. This may result in Shareholders receiving a market price for their Shares that is above or below the price that Shareholders paid.

11.3.7 Force Majeure

The Company's projects now or in the future may be adversely affected by risks outside the control of the Company including labour unrest, civil disorder, war, subversive activities or sabotage, fires, floods, explosions or other catastrophes, epidemics or quarantine restrictions.

11.3.8 Litigation Risks

The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including native title claims, tenure disputes, environmental claims, occupational health and safety claims and employee claims. Further, the Company may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if proven, may impact adversely on the Company's operations, financial performance and financial position. The Company is not currently engaged in any litigation.

11.3.9 Investment Speculative

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the securities offered under this Prospectus. Therefore, the securities to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those securities.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for securities pursuant to this Prospectus.
