reserves, life of mine, recovery rates, grades and prices, business strategies and measures to implement such strategies, competitive strengths, estimated goals
and plans for Iverniaās future business operations, lead market outlook and other such matters. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified
by the use of words such as āāseekāā, āāanticipateāā, āācontemplateāā, āātargetāā, āābelieveāā, āāplanāā, āāestimateāā, āāexpectāā, and āāintendāā and statements that an
event or result āāmayāā, āāwillāā, āācanāā, āāshouldāā, āācouldāā or āāmightāā occur or be achieved and other similar expressions. These statements are based upon certain
reasonable factors, assumptions and analyses made by management in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and
expected future developments, as well as other factors management believes are appropriate in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and
developments will conform with managementās expectations is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including factors underlying managementās
assumptions, such as, the duration of the suspension of the Companyās transportation of lead carbonate from the Mine, the duration of the period of care and
maintenance commenced in April 2011, the timing, need and ability to raise additional financing, risks relating to the operations being placed on care and
maintenance, matters relating the restart of mining and milling operations, matters relating to ramping up mining and milling throughput and operations,
regulatory compliance and approvals, metal price volatility, lead carbonate concentrate treatment charges, exchange rates, regulatory proceedings and
litigation, the fact that the Company has a single mineral property, resources and reserves, health and safety, environmental factors, mining risks, metallurgy,
labour and employment regulations, government regulations, insurance, dependence on key personnel, constraints on cash flow, the nature of mineral
exploration and development, matters relating generally to the transportation of lead carbonate, presence of a majority shareholder, matters related to public
opinion, matters related to the Esperance settlement and shipments through the Port of Fremantle, and common share price volatility and the dilution of the
Companyās common shares. Additional factors and considerations are discussed in the Companyās 2011 AIF under āDescription of the Business of the Company ā
Risk Factorsā and elsewhere in this presentation and in other documents filed from time to time by Ivernia with Canadian securities regulatory authorities. While
Ivernia considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect. These factors may cause the
actual results of the Company to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results
or developments anticipated by management will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected results on the Company. Undue
importance should not be placed on forward-looking information nor should reliance be placed upon this information as of any other date. Except as required by
law, while it may elect to, Ivernia is under no obligation and does not undertake to update this information at any particular time.

Enirgi Groupās financial support for Ivernia.
ā¢ The Company will require further financing to
restart the Magellan Mine which will be
dependent on the finalization of restart plans
and general market conditions (mainly lead
price and f/x rate). Initial estimates indicate
funding requirements in the range of
approximately US$20 to US$25 million which
includes the repayment of the fully drawn
down $6 million facility in June 2013
ā¢ Ivernia has requested an extension to the
scheduled repayment date for the facility in an
effort to reduce the overall funding
requirements during restart, however any such
repayment extension remains at the sole
discretion of Enirgi Group.

central Western Australia, 30 km west of
Wiluna and 750 km northeast of Perth. The
Goldfields Highway passes the front entrance
to the mine and Wiluna has an all-weather
airstrip.
ļ People ā Under normal operations the mine
employs ~220 people commuting on a FIFO
roster from Perth.
ļ Simple mining ā Open pit mining is carried
out to depths of only 50 metres with an
average stripping ratio of 2.4:1.
ļ Processing opportunity ā The milled ore is sulphurdized and then concentrated using
traditional froth flotation. The processing plant was achieving best ever performance
immediately prior to being placed on care and maintenance.
ļ Magellan Metals developed Best Practice concentrate transport system ā
Concentrate is loaded into 2 tonne bulka bags which are then sealed, vacuumed clean
and then placed into shipping containers for transport by road, rail and sea to smelters
around the world.

2. Mineral resources are inclusive of mineral reserves. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental,
permitting, legal, marketing, or other relevant issues.
3. Mineral resources have been reported based on a cut-off grade of 2.1% lead. Mineral resources are based on the Mineral Resource Report prepared by CSA Global Pty Ltd (āCSAā) titled āMagellan Lead Project ā 2011 Mineral
Resource Estimateā dated March 29, 2012 (the āMineral Resource Reportā).
4. Mineral resources are reported in accordance with the 2004 update of the JORC code, which is consistent with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best
Practices Guidelines.
5. Jeff Elliott and Steve Rose of CSA are the āQualified Personsā for purposes of National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators (āNI 43-101ā), independent of Ivernia and have verified the above mineral resource
figures, including the underlying sampling, analytical and test data. Data was verified by a site visit and review of Magellan Metalsā data.
6. Contained lead is total lead mined; planned plant recovery is over 75% as per the life of mine plan and 95% payable contained lead.
7. Mineral reserves are based upon mineral resource estimates set out above, which, in turn, are based on the Mineral Resource Report prepared by CSA.
8. Mineral reserves are a subset of measured and indicated mineral resources. All mineral reserves are reported in accordance with the JORC Code. The JORC Code uses the term āore reserveā which is equivalent to the term āmineral
reserveā, as defined in NI 43-101.
9. Mineral reserves have been reported based on a cut-off grade of 2.1% Pb, an exchange rate of US$0.95/A$1.00, a lead price of US$2,200 per tonne (approx. A$2,316 per tonne) and estimated operating costs.
10.Mr. Andy Robb (General Manager, Technical Services of Magellan Metals) is a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and is responsible for the mineral reserves and has prepared and verified the above mineral
reserve figures. Mr. Robb is a āQualified Personā within the meaning of NI 43-101.
11.Mineral reserves have a waste to ore ratio of 2.4 to 1.
12.Based on production rates of 1.7 to 2.0 million tonnes of ore processed per annum; such increase in production rates is subject to regulatory approval.

updated technical report on Magellan
ā with significant increases in
resources and reserves and a mine
life extending beyond 10 years.
With this significantly larger resource
and reserve base Magellan has
tremendous leverage to lead prices as
this NPV (8%) table showing lead
price and A$/US$ f/x rates from the
technical report demonstrates.
The NPVs above are based on a static reserves (from the previous slide) in which only ~49% of
the M&I resources are converted into 2P reserves. At higher metal prices, more of the M&I
resources convert into reserves and higher NPVs can be expected. At metal prices of $3,800
per tonne, it is expected that over 90% of the M&I resources convert into 2P reserves.
The Enirgi Group and Ivernia are committed to working together to restore shareholder value for
all shareholders of Ivernia with a business model for a long term sustainable Magellan
operation.
Additional areas of opportunity to enhance the 43-101 report valuation are being explored
through a number of projects being worked on with the Enirgi Group

12. Lead Markets and Price performance
Magellan Metals Pty Ltd
ā¢ In 2011 the world consumed 10.3
million tonnes of lead ā a 2.4 million
tonne or 30% increase since 2005.
ā¢ Approx. 90% of the worldās lead is
consumed in batteries.
ā¢ China consumed approx. 4.6 million
tonnes or 45% of the worlds lead in
2011 ā 2.0 million tonnes of which
was for E-bike batteries (CHR
Metals).
ā¢ A number of analysts continue to
forecast strong growth in lead
consumption ā driven by demand in
China.
ā¢ In September 2012, BNP Paribas forecast a lead price of $2,550 per tonne for 2013 and $2,825
per tonne for 2014.
ā¢ In the Q2 2012Thompson Reuters survey of base metals analysts, a median price of $2,250
per tonne was forecast for 2013.
ā¢ Lead prices peaked around $3,700 per tonne in late 2007 ā the last slide demonstrates the
Magellan valuation leverage in the event of a return to those lead price levels.

ā¢ In lead, a number of significant mine
closures are slated for the middle part
of this decade with few large new
projects coming on stream.
ā¢ Ivernia continues to hold the view that
this could create the environment for
stronger lead prices during the
second half of this decade.

16. Concentrate transportation system
Magellan Metals Pty Ltd
ā¢ Magellan Metals has implemented a concentrate transport system
which is acknowledged by the Western Australian EPA as best practice
ā Concentrate is placed in waterproof and sift proof bags and sealed
ā The bags are loaded into cleaned containers which are then locked
ā Containers are trucked to Leonora and then railed to Fremantle for export
ā Over 3,000 samples taken at over 300 sample sites along the transport
route have shown no evidence of concentrate escaping from the bags or
containers
ā The trigger levels for some sample sites are less than 100th of the national
health standards
ā The Magellan Metals process eliminates potential dust-generating
transfer points in the transport process

Magellan Metals Pty Ltd
ā Following a series of events in early 2011, we voluntarily took the hard decision in
April 2011 to put our only operation on Care & Maintenance and reduced our
employee and contractor workforce from 235 to ~30
ā We have used this down time to upgrade our compliance and risk management
systems as well as improve our capabilities in a number of different areas
ā We have worked pro-actively with the WA Government and Regulators to address
their concerns and those of the community resulting in the receipt of updated
operating conditions (āOperating Conditionsā) on July 27, 2012
ā In general, the Operating Conditions preserve and, in some cases, enhance the
already strict auditing, monitoring, management and reporting requirements
previously imposed on Magellan Metals.
ā The Company is strongly committed to meeting the obligations outlined in the
Operating Conditions and demonstrating that the containerized shipping of the
Companyās product is both safe and appropriate.

21. Operating Conditions
Magellan Metals Pty Ltd
ā Below are two quotes from the Minister for Environment upon releasing the
Operating Conditions on July 27, 2012:
ā āDespite the detection of several lead exceedances last year, no lead concentrate
was found to have escaped into the environment from the double lined bags within
Magellanās locked shipping containers.
ā āSome of the lead exceedances to date were attributed to historical lead handling at
various sites and not from Magellanās recent operations. Others were a result of
naturally occurring lead levels in the environment.ā

22. Magellan Mine Restart ā Key Points
Magellan Metals Pty Ltd
ā
A restart of operations is targeted for the second quarter of 2013.
ā
The Operating Conditions require that certain actions be undertaken by the Company prior to the recommencement of transport.
ā
In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company will commence restart capital projects and order long lead
time items.
ā¢
ā¢
ā
Capital projects in Q4 2012 and Q1 2013 including upgrades of the hard-stand areas, wash-down facilities
and dust extraction capability.
It is estimated that the Company will spend approximately $5 to $6 million on capital projects over the
course of the next 9 months
A successful restart will be dependent on ensuring key personnel are in place and will involve some
capital projects to meet the new operating conditions
ā¢
ā¢
ā
Recruitment of key personnel is well progressed with more general recruitment planning to continue in Q4
2012. Significant training and onboarding process for all personnel.
General recruitment to occur in Q1 2013.
Considering a proposal to transfer the day to day management of the mine to a management service
agreement under the management of the Enirgi Metal Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Enirgi
Group.
