Regional exploration

• Major evaluation of regional lease holding

commenced in 2015

• Over 56km of aircore drilled in 2015 –

returning an abundance of anomalous intersections and highlighting several new areas of interest. 96km of follow-up and new programs in plan for 2016

• Establishing geological framework, as was

successfully applied at St Ives, key to improved geological understanding and future target generation

• Diamond drill testing at Alabama has

intersected (low grade) anomalous intervals with visible gold observed in the core

• Studies to optimise a potential open pit

(~75koz) and underground (~350koz) at Granny Smith are underway

• Least explored of all the Australian assets
