First Annual Report | June 2012 1 SUMMARY Exploration Permit for Minerals (EPM) 19169 “Tellebang” was applied for in order to facilitate an exploration program to discover economically viable deposits of bauxite associated with Tertiary Volcanics, in an area with old peneplained surfaces preserved as plateaus. In the first year of tenure, the following exploration program was undertaken in EPM 19169: 1. Detailed geological mapping, including geomorphological mapping, to define the areas with best potential for bauxite. 2. Systematic sampling of natural outcrops and exposures in road cuts of zones prospective for bauxite 3. Chemical analyses of samples, including specialist analyses to determine total and available alumina, total and reactive quartz, loss on ignition and other analyses as required in bauxite search Significant portions of EPM 19169 are plateaus with red soil – as seen on Map 1. Study of satellite images led to the conclusion that the plateaus in EPM 19169 are similar to the plateaus in neighbouring tenement EPM 18014 Binjour where a JORC Resource of 24.5 million tonnes was declared on 29 June 2012. Therefore one can expect that exploration by traversing and drilling will discover bauxite similar to the bauxite in the Binjour area. No reference to any previous bauxite exploration has been found during literature search for the area covered by Tellebang EPM 19169. Location is favourable and access is easy. EPM 19169 is located near the towns of Monto, Eidsvold, Mundubbera and Gayndah with skilled workforces and full contractor services. The tenement is also near the Burdekin River (abundant water – flowing all year around) and is near bitumen highways that connect the area to Gladstone and to Gympie. Furthermore, EPM 19169 is near the Gladstone – Monto – Gayndah – Maryborough railway. This railway is currently not in use but will probably be rehabilitated when the Monto / Mulgildie thermal coal mine – located at historic Selene underground coal mine 10km to the west of EPM 19169 is developed by Macarthur Coal and JV partners; distance by railway from Mulgildie coal mine to Gladstone is 200km. Even a relatively modest tonnage at EPM 19169 would be of interest due to its proximity to Binjour EPM 18014, Monto / Mulgildie coal project (at Selene) of Macarthur Coal Ltd. and Gladstone | Page 3 EPM 19169 Tellebang - First Annual Report | June 2012 2 INTRODUCTION Tenure Information EPM 19169 was granted to ABx3 Pty Ltd on 27 June 2011 for a two year period, covering an area of 50 sub-blocks. The sub-block composition is outlined in Table 1 below. The EPM is now in its second year of tenure, with this annual report being the first submitted for this EPM outlining the exploration conducted during the first year of tenure for the period ending 26 June 2012. The tenement is covered by a Level 2 Code Compliant environmental authority (EA), number MIC202607411.

North Burnett Regional Council is the governing local authority. Exploration Rationale Significant portions of EPM 19169 are plateaus with red soil – as observed on Map 1. Study of satellite images led to conclusion that the plateaus in EPM 19169 area are similar to the plateaus in neighbouring tenement EPM 18014 where a JORC Resource upgrade of 24.5 million tonnes was declared on 29 June 2012. Therefore one can expect that exploration by traversing and drilling will discover bauxite similar to the
