(subject to water availability)
3.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
3.1 BACKGROUND
The purpose of this Information Memorandum is to provide an overview to parties interested in purchasing Silver Valley.
It is by no means a full and complete account of all relevant matters in relation to the holding and prospective purchasers
should make their own enquiries to satisfy themselves as to all relevant matters. Silver Valley at present is a large scale
breeding and fattening operations of unprecedented quality and scale (by district standards) located within the renowned
and highly regarded Roma District.

6. Silver Valley is a concentration of GHPL under one title. Having been acquired by the Wills Family in 1967
the property has undergone significant development over the ensuing 48 years, resulting in the establishment of one of the
most well regarded holdings in the district. Cattle produced on Silver Valley have a well-earned reputation for growing and
fattening and are sought after by backgrounders and feed-lotters across the eastern sea board.
3.2 PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
The key property information for Silver Valley is summarised in the following table:
Property - Silver Valley (Owners - Jeanette Elizabeth Wills & Ian Graham Wills)
Address – 557 Silver Valley Road, Wallumbilla South, Queensland, 4428
RPD – L5 WV1272:GHPL 36/7845:PAR WALLABELLA GHPL Title 1
Area - Total (ha) 5,859.44 Total (acres) 14,478.68

9. 3.3 SCOPE OF CURRENT ENTERPRISE
Silver Valley operates as a mixed farming and grazing enterprise producing high yielding grain crops and fattening
operations producing high quality grass-fed beef. Basically the current enterprise operates as a production factory all year
round. The current feedlot receives grain supplied from on-farm, mostly as hay grain silage. The current owners grow oat
crops during the Winter seasons then place the cattle from off oat crops into the feedlot after that. The owners went to
Germany and studied a machine capable or wrapping silage sausage lengths. This equipment has been invaluable and has
been in operation at Silver Valley for the past ten years. This has enabled the whole operation to be almost completely
drought proof producing store condition and fat cattle throughout any season, good or bad.

11. 3.4 FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Silver Valley’s location, scale, quality and soil types lend favourably to the further development of the holding.
Opportunities exist to integrate a more comprehensive grazing model into the current overall management plan, and to
develop broad acre cultivation areas. Approximately (1,618ha) 4,000 acres of lightly timbered country lends itself to
further fodder harvesting, thinning and clearing of encroachment for expansion of the grazing enterprise through permit
application under PMAV process. An area of (1,821 ha) 4,500 acres are planted under cultivation with (2,420 ha) 5,980
acres providing improved pasture areas for grazing, being a total of (5,859 ha) 14,477 acres across Silver Valley.
‘Silver Valley is well-established, well managed, well presented and a versatile holding that has a variety of current and
future land use options’.

14. 4.0 HISTORICAL OVERVIEW
The Wills family originally acquired Silver Valley in 1967. At that time, which was won in a land ballot, the property was in
original native scrub form prior to the family relocating from the Wandoan area to commence a new beginning.
Drawing on the Will Family’s Mallee and Wandoan grazing experience, a comprehensive development program was
implemented which aimed to increase productivity and efficiencies whilst maintaining a level of simplicity to core farming
and grazing practices. Key elements of this development program included stock water reticulation, grid, gate and fencing
infrastructure, livestock handling facilities, vegetation control and road infrastructure. The result of this well focused
program and implementation of the comprehensive development program has positioned Silver Valley ahead of the
competition as it is a name synonymous with exceptional quality, yield and consistency; a true testament to the Wills family.
5.1 SILVER VALLEY OVERVIEW
Silver Valley provides the purchaser the rare opportunity to secure 5,859.44 hectares of premium agricultural land in a very
tightly held district. The physical size of Silver Valley provides exposure to a complementary mix of land types, lending
favourably to high performance production regardless of prevailing seasonal conditions. The current bank of standing feed
and the condition of the cattle presently on hand (as shown
throughout this IM) are certain proof of the “safety” of the area, in contrast to the otherwise inconsistent rainfall and drought
conditions being experienced throughout many areas of Queensland. Located on the southern slopes of the Great Dividing
Ranges at approximately 330 metres above sea level, consistent rainfall averaging 24’(in excess of 350 millimetres, 14
inches, from December 2014 to January 2015) provides added security to the operation. Silver Valley exhibits all the
hallmarks of properties that have been held by unchanged management for an extended period, progressively developed to a
well formulated plan, offering high productivity, excellent stock water, sound and functional infrastructure, which all
facilitates ease of operation.

23. 5.8 CAPITAL INVESMENT AND DEVELOPMENT
Silver Valley has been transformed into a high producing enterprise at significant cost to the owners. Developed with the
guiding principles of consistent production, secure and readily available stock water and efficiency, significant capital
expenditure items include the following:
• Regrowth and pasture management through the
implementation of an extensive Grassland, blade ploughing
and chaining program, together with additional annual
programs for maintenance of cleared areas;
• Water reticulation systems to provide stock water to
cattle including an extensive system of 3 x bores,
6 x dams, 3 x turkey nests and 12 x troughs;
• Very well appointed livestock handling facilities developed
to minimise livestock stress, resulting in increased weight
gain performance;
• Annual replacement and installation of boundary and internal
fencing, and gate infrastructure;
• Development of all-weather access road, front gate to the
cattle yards, with road train turnaround area 100% weatherproof;
It is estimated that this capital investment has exceeded $2
million over the past several years alone.

24. 5.10 STOCK WATER
Comprising 3 bores, 6 dams, 3 turkey nests and in excess of 12 stock troughs, the security of water resources and associated
reticulation systems are a feature of Silver Valley. Having been progressively developed to represent a secure, operator
friendly system Silver Valley’s 3 registered bores source water from the Wallumbilla underground aquifer supplying water to
numerous stock troughs or directly into a reticulated system. Additionally, a key requirement of the development was to
provide at least close to one water point to each paddock. All bores are equipped with either mono or submersible pumps
driven by a combination of diesel (Yanmar) and electric motors. In addition to the aforementioned water infrastructure,
numerous water courses traverse Spring Valley providing additional sources of seasonal / ephemeral water.
5.11 FENCING AND ASSOCIATED INFRASTRUCTURE
Silver Valley is subdivided into approximately 26 paddocks with smaller holding paddocks surrounding stock yards and
homestead complexes.
Fencing infrastructure is of a high standard and comprises mixed type stock proof fencing on boundary lines and internal
fence lines. Large sections of fencing are replaced on an annual basis as part of the annual fencing program with boundary
fencing replaced on a half share basis.
So as to improve livestock movement throughout Silver Valley a series of internal laneways were added, and a network of
well-maintained access roads have been developed with a consequent reduction of wear on property, plant and equipment.
5.12 STOCK YARDS
Silver Valley is benefitted by a well placed steel sets of Cattle Yards enabling stock work to be conducted in an efficient and
timely manner. Yards are benefitted by reticulated water systems. The Silver Valley yards comprise a large set of steel yards
incorporating two large cooler pens. The yards feature holding yards, forcing yards, drafting pound with six way draft and
cattle crush equipped with a Beef King steel veterinary crush. An additional feature of the Silver Valley yards is the three
way draft for movement out of the crush and raised walkway. A calf branding crush and Morrissey calf branding cradle have
also been installed and are positioned under a Bower Shed type cover. Capacity 800 head* of cattle.

28. 6.1 SILVER VALLEY HOMESTEAD
The Silver Valley Homestead is set amongst manicured gardens, located centrally on Silvey Valley with access via Silver
Valley Road. The homestead commands an elevated view, on wooden stumps, and comprises an executive style, timber
framed dwelling and vinyl clad external walls. Features include four bedrooms, two bathrooms, large kitchen, dining room,
lounge, study, and large rumpus room. The homestead is benefitted by two split system air conditioners. Car accommodation
is provided and includes a double bay garage and carport.

29. 6.2 MANAGERS RESIDENCE
The managers residence is set amongst a manicured garden ( pop-up sprinklers) is located nearby the main homestead and is
central to the workshop and cattle yard areas. The residence comprises a low set, timber framed building with weatherboard
external cladding. Features include five bedrooms, one bathroom, very modern new timber kitchen, dining room, lounge and
associated office. The homestead is benefitted by 3 x bedrooms having wall mounted evaporative air conditioning and car
accommodation is provided via a double bay carport. Furthermore an above ground swimming pool and large deck to pool.

30. 7.0 BROAD ACRE CULTIVATION AND GRAZING
Silver Valley is benefitted by land and soil types conducive to the further development of the existing natural pasture and
lightly timbered areas lending expansion for future cultivation or grazing areas.
The broad acre cultivation areas total a sum of approx’(1,821ha) 4,500 acres. 1,400 acres of Chickpeas (cash crop) are in at
present. Also planted at present 1,000 acres of wheat which is used in the feedlot. In addition presently planted 1,000 acres
of oats in forward condition. Undulating open downs grazing areas consisting of Belah, Brigalow, Wilga, Bauhinia and
Bottle tree soil types cover an area (2,420ha) of 5,980 acres improved with Digitera, Bambatsi and Rhodes Grass.

31. 8.2 FEEDLOT
Silver Valley benefits from having established its own feedlot facility consisting of concrete bunker troughs and fences.
Target market has been MSA graded grass. Operating on a very low cost basis, being easily managed it is highly profitable
and could be used to finish cattle for a variety of end uses. The feedlot has been stocked and carried 1000 head. Potential to
feed 2000-3000 head in close proximity to the feedlot in surrounding holding pens is possible.

33. 8.4 THE END RESULT
Acquiring Silver Valley offers the opportunity to either solidify a position at the top end of the central Queensland cattle
industry or alternatively provides a truly unique opportunity to enter this industry at a scale which is unprecedented in this
locality.
The building of a portfolio of scale generally requires time, patient capital and significant human endeavour. Silver Valley
offers sophisticated investors the opportunity to either fast track to becoming a significant player or complete the supply
chain for an existing operator. There are also further nearby acquisition opportunities if additional scale is of interest. Suffice
to say, the inherent qualities of Silver Valley offer safe, high yielding production and would be an excellent adjunct to any
existing supply chain. At almost 15,000 acres, Silver Valley is almost twice the size of a typical Roma District property.
