Exploration during the quarter has focussed on drill testing magnetite targets at the Johnston Range and Die Hardy Range projects. Encouraging drill intercepts have been returned from both areas, with the Die Hardy Range project being selected for resource definition drilling owing to its excellent size and metallurgical characteristics (i.e. a coarse grind sizing). A resource estimate for the Die Hardy Range is planned for October this year.

Also at the Johnston Range project, a detailed mapping and geophysical data review has resulted in the definition of over 20 hematite targets. Drilling approvals were obtained and these targets will be tested in coming months.

Radar’s overall exploration objectives in 2011 are to focus on defining initial hematite and magnetite resources and to continue assessing the large tenement holding for further prospects. Once resource identification is complete scoping or feasibility studies will commence to enable rapid progress towards mining.

Quarterly Activities Report

For the Three Months Ended 30 June 2011

Exploration Summary – June Quarter

Radar’s exploration focus in the June Quarter was on the Johnston Range and Die Hardy Range Projects (Figure 2). 18 RC drill holes for 4,107m have been completed at the two project areas.

Highly encouraging metallurgical results from earlier Die Hardy Range drilling led to that project being selected for the first resource definition drill programme, which is continuing into the September quarter. Results to date have been highly encouraging with a large body of magnetite mineralisation indicated with excellent metallurgical properties.

The Johnston Range drilling also returned significant intercepts of magnetite mineralisation and metallurgical test work is continuing.

Further surface mapping and geophysical data interpretation has resulted in over 20 hematite targets being identified in the Johnston Range area with drilling approval now obtained.

The acquisition of iron ore rights over a significant tenement holding (as reported previously) will result in an active exploration programme aimed at rapidly identifying hematite targets for drill testing later in 2011 and 2012. A helicopter borne aeromagnetic survey has been commissioned for August that will provide an initial targeting tool in conjunction with on-going field mapping.

Additional flora surveys were completed at Johnson Range and at Die Hardy Range to facilitate future drilling approvals. The Conservation Management Plan (CMP) for the region was progressively refined and updated again to assist in streamlining future exploration approvals. Programme of Works approvals were submitted to the Department of Minerals and Petroleum and approvals were gained for a number of targets.

Exploration Detail – March Quarter

Die Hardy Range Project

An RC drilling programme commenced in May 2011 with 7 holes drilled for 2,263m. The drilling was aimed at providing sufficient drill data to enable an Inferred Mineral Resource to be estimated for the prospect. Two kilometres of the 3.4km strike length is targeted in the initial drill campaign.

The potential for a major body of magnetite mineralisation at the Die Hardy Range was indentified in 2010 through reconnaissance mapping. The prospect, approximately 3.4km long, was given the initial name of ‘Lara’. Two RC drill holes were completed in late 2010 to provide initial samples of the mineralisation for metallurgical testing. Both assay results and the preliminary metallurgical test work were highly encouraging. Further drilling was planned and a number of botanical surveys completed earlier in 2011 to facilitate drill approvals.

Consultant group, Calibre Global, was engaged to coordinate metallurgical test work using material from the initial two drill holes. A grind size test was completed that produced recommendations for the optimum Davis Tube Recovery (DTR) process. The key recommendation was for a grind size of 80% passing 50 micron, a relatively coarse grind size. This procedure has been implemented for all recent DTR test work.

Based on encouraging surface geology, drill hole data and metallurgical assessments, the Die Hardy Range magnetite was selected for the first resource drill out for Radar. Five drill sections, spaced nominally at 400m with holes 80m apart, are being drilled between May and August – 25 holes in total. This density of drilling should be sufficient to enable at least an Inferred Mineral Resource to be estimated and this work is scheduled for October/November this year.

The exploration potential for the Die Hardy Range mineralisation has been estimated using surface geology, aeromagnetic data and the size and grade is indicated by the drilling as being:

0.7-1.2Bt at 29-33% Fe*

Seven holes have been drilled to date (see Table 1) with results returned for the first four, (Table 2). DTR test work has been completed for 163, 4m long composite samples from the first four holes with highly encouraging results – mass recovery of 40%, concentrate grade of 69% Fe and silica averaging 4.1% (Table 3).

The magnetite intersected has been massive with minor thin bands of other rocks widely spaced through the rock mass. Hence long intervals of magnetite have been returned as evidenced in Table 2.

RC Drilling at the Die Hardy Range project has intersected massive magnetite mineralisation over a width of approximately 250m on the first section completed. The surface expression of the magnetite is approximately 3.4km and has been shown to continue to at least a depth of 350m below surface. The metallurgical test work that commenced several months ago, as reported previously, forms an integral part of the characterisation of the magnetite mineralisation.

Davis Tube Recovery (DTR) metallurgical test work simulates the likely performance of magnetite ores being processed through a typical magnetic separation process in a concentration plant. After fine crushing or pulverising the sample is passed by a magnet and the magnetic fraction is then assayed and weighed. Typically a mass recovery of greater than 30% with iron grades around 70% and silica below 5% is considered desirable.

Consultant group, Calibre Global, was engaged to coordinate metallurgical test work. A grind size test was completed in June that produced recommendations for the optimum DTR process. The key recommendation was for a grind size of 80% passing 50 micron, a relatively coarse grind size. This procedure has been implemented for all recent DTR test work.

Quarterly Activities Report

For the Three Months Ended 30 June 2011

163 DTR analyses have now been completed using the recommended procedure and the results (Table 3) are consistently encouraging, indicating a relatively homogeneous mineralised body. With an indicative concentrate grade above 69% Fe, low silica and high mass recovery, the potential treatment properties are excellent.

The potential size of the Die Hardy Range magnetite mineralisation and highly encouraging metallurgical properties indicate that it has excellent potential to produce a saleable concentrate.

RC drilling of approximately 2km of strike length will continue before resource estimation is undertaken. Radar intends to produce a maiden JORC compliant resource statement in October/November this year. A scoping study into the project will also commence in 2011 to identify key project drivers and infrastructure solutions.

Johnston Range

Hematite Targets

Further ground mapping and geophysical interpretation has reinforced the potential for multiple hematite targets in the Johnston Range project area. Zones of surface hematite enrichment up to approximately 800m in length have been defined by mapping. The target size, as previously indicated, remains current with the potential for a number of 2-5Mt bodies of hematite being the most likely exploration outcome.

All approvals are now in place and drill testing of the targets is scheduled for coming months. Approximately 3,000m of drilling will be sufficient to test the 20 targets defined in the project area with follow up drilling envisaged to better define any mineralisation intercepted.

Magnetite Targets

An RC drilling programme was completed in May 2011 with 11 holes drilled for 1,844m. The drilling targeted magnetite mineralisation from several prospects for metallurgical test work and assessment.

The objectives of the RC drilling were to:

  • further test the magnetite potential at Johnston Range by establishing the depth continuity of the magnetite mineralisation exposed at surface;

  • test the continuity of mineralisation widths and grades along strike; and,

  • provide samples for metallurgical test work to determine the zones with the best metallurgical properties prior to further drilling.

Magnetite targets were tested on the western limb of the 40km long Johnston range BIF complex (Figure 6). Assaying was completed based on a 2m sample length. Details of the holes are shown in Table 4 with assay results in Table 5 below. Metallurgical assessment has commenced using DTR test work and using Calibre Global as metallurgical consultants.

A number of significant intersects of magnetite were identified in areas not previously drill tested, particularly at the Shipley and Rowling prospects. The wide spaced drilling served to confirm the continuity of the magnetite in these areas and also at the Muldoon prospect.

Once metallurgical tests are completed this data will enable resource definition drilling to be targeted. As previously stated the Johnson Range project area has an identified primary magnetite exploration potential of 4.0Bt - 6.7Bt at 20-45% Fe* and it is considered likely that significant magnetite bodies will be delineated as exploration progresses over this large area. Further drilling is likely later in 2011 and 2012.

* The potential quantity and grade of iron deposits reported as having exploration potential is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

Quarterly Activities Report

For the Three Months Ended 30 June 2011

Iron Rights Acquisition

Radar has completed the agreement to acquire a significant package of iron ore rights from Southern Cross Goldfields Ltd (SXG) in the central Yilgarn iron district of WA which was initially agreed in February 2011.

The iron rights, covered by tenement holdings of 913 km[2] , more than triple Radar’s current land position (previously around 300 km[2] ). SXG will continue to hold the tenement titles with Radar having the right to access, explore and exploit all iron and associated minerals. Over 80 linear kilometres of Banded Iron Formation (BIF) has been identified on the tenements. The ground has had limited exploration for iron mineralisation in the past and is considered highly prospective for direct shipping hematite ores and magnetite mineralisation.

The acquisition was completed on July 4 with the signing of a joint mineral rights agreement to ensure compatible exploration and mining activity between Radar and Southern Cross and to maximise potential synergies between the companies.

Regional Exploration

Regional geological reconnaissance was continued on existing Radar tenements and those recently acquired from SXG. A number of areas have been identified as containing outcropping hematite mineralisation and magnetite potential is widespread.

Being a large holding with significant potential in a number of areas, Radar will use geophysical techniques along with field validation to define drill targets. While the ground has potential for both hematite and magnetite mineralisation, Radar intends to focus on identifying hematite targets in the first instance for drill testing later in 2011 and 2012.

A helicopter borne aero-magnetic survey has been commissioned by Radar and will be flown in August/September over significant parts of the acquired tenure. This data will be used in conjunction with ground mapping and possible focussed gravity surveys to define hematite targets for future drill testing.

One zone of potential hematite mineralisation has already been identified in the Evanston Project area adjacent to Johnson Range (Figures 2 & 7) through ground reconnaissance. The zone is approximately 2 km long and lies along strike and on the same BIF unit that hosts the 20Mt+ Deception hematite deposit of Cliff’s Natural Resources and Mineral Resources Ltd to the south.

10 rock chip samples have returned assay grades averaging 60% Fe (Table 6). Drill approvals are pending with the intent to drill test the zone when the hematite drill testing of the nearby Johnston Range hematite targets commences in coming months.

Managing Director

The information in this report accurately reflects information prepared by competent persons (as defined by the Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves). It is compiled by Mr Jonathan Lea, an employee of the Company who is a Member of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy with the requisite experience in the field of activity in which he is reporting. Mr Lea has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and the type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Mr Lea consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.

The potential quantity and grade of iron deposits reported as exploration potential is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.
