19. Exploration update - Using strong funding position
to continue an aggressive & successful program
PETERLUMBO JOINT VENTURE (IVR 75%)
Paris silver prospect
• Over 102 RCP & diamond holes for 16,096 metres; Awaiting
assays for 15 holes
• Working towards initial resource estimate
• Drilling continues with 1 rig for additional deeper resource
potential particularly in the Western Sheet
• On-going environmental baseline & community studies
Peterlumbo satellite targets - to be progressed in 2H2012
• Initial RCP drilling undertaken at Paris South
• Organising heritage surveys to access other targets for drilling in
December quarter (Helen North, Trojan Horse, Alexander North)
• First pass soil sampling for balance of Peterlumbo
tenement completed with analyses pending

KEY REGIONAL TARGETS (IVR 100%)
Other target areas defined on Eyre Peninsula by regional
soil geochemistry
• Botenella Gate – Recent initial scout drilling upgrades new
metal centre; Consistent with the successful Peterlumbo
tactics, now moving to next step of detailed soil sampling over
wide area to focus further drilling
• Hopcrafts Dam - Heritage survey undertaken in preparation
for planned scout drilling
Bute IOCG targets, Yorke Peninsula
• First pass scout drilling - anomalous copper in cover rocks
supports underlying basement target
• Encourages further soil sampling and airborne magnetics
over large under-explored area ahead of further drilling
