1These Exploration Targets are at an early stage of evaluation, and the potential quantity and grade remain conceptual in nature. At his stage there has been insufficient
exploration to define Mineral Resources and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of Mineral Resources greater than that already defined.
