Statement of Resources DEPOSIT Indicated Inferred Contained Resource Resource Metal Dry Gold Silver Dry Gold Silver Gold Silver tonnes (g/t) (g/t) tonnes (g/t) (g/t) (oz) (oz) Dobroyde (Junee) 2,080,000 1.15 - - - - 77,000 - Murphys (Oberon) - - - 5,300,000 0.89 2.2 150,000 372,000 The Statement of Resources has been prepared by Dr Ian Blayden of Geological & Management Services Pty Ltd on behalf of ARX from internal reports compiled by New South Resources NL reported at a 0.3 g/t gold cut-off. The Dobroyde and Murphys resources are classified as Indicated and Inferred, respectively, based on the available drilling control and confidence in the geological and mineralisation continuity. These figures were calculated based largely on historic drilling data that was acquired by previous exploration companies in the respective project areas. Intercepts from the historic drilling are set out below. The data and methodologies used in these resource estimations were audited and verified by ARX’s independent consultant, Dr Ian Blayden, and are reported in the Statement of Resources annexed to this announcement. Competent Person Statements The information in this report that relates to exploration results and historic drilling data is based on information compiled by Mr Brad Wake, who is a member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists.

  • Mid Coxs River Subcatchment
    Mid Coxs River Mid Coxs Appendix 4.2 Appendix Subcatchment summaries Subcatchment Mid Coxs River Subcatchment River Mid Coxs The Mid Coxs River subcatchment is located in the far-west section of the Hawkesbury Nepean catchment. It is characterised by narrow granite valleys and contains the World Heritage listed Jenolan Caves Karst Conservation Reserve. The subcatchment has signifi cant areas in reserved land in its lower reaches in the Kanagra Boyd National Park, part of the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area. The subcatchment is highly valued for its recreational values by local and regional communities. Flows in the Mid Coxs River are impacted by impoundment at Lake Lyell. In the upper area of the subcatchment, there is signifi cant rural development, and pine plantations in the tributary headwaters both of which have altered the vegetation of this subcatchment. The impacts of these activities need to be well managed to prevent degradation of the near intact reaches downstream. There is a major Landcare association, the Lithgow Oberon Landcare Association, and numerous Landcare groups working in the subcatchment, as well as weed control and mapping programs undertaken by the National Parks and Wildlife Service.

  • COAG National Bushfire Inquiry
    Appendix D Fire history in Australia This appendix summarises the available information on major bushfire events in each state and territory as far back as records allow. There are many inconsistencies and gaps in the available information because there are no nationally agreed criteria for defining a ‘significant fire year’ or a ‘major fire event’. The available information shows the following: • Major fire events are a periodic feature in all states and territories. • The areas of land that are affected by fire continue to be significant. • There have been 59 recorded bushfire events where there has been loss of life, with a positive trend being the significant decline in the loss of life from bushfires in the last 20 years. • There have been 24 fire events resulting in major stock losses (defined as more than 1000 head). • There have been 21 fire events resulting in large-scale loss of houses (defined as more than 50 houses). Table D.1 Fire history in Australia, by state and territory No. of Area of fire Date deaths (ha) Losses Location(s) Northern Territory 1968–1969 40 000 000 Killarney – Top Springs 1969–1970 45 000 000 Dry River – Victoria River fire 1974–1975 45 000 000 Barkly Tableland, Victoria River district, near Newcastle Waters 2002 38 000 000 Queensland 1917 3 Large fires near Hughenden, followed by a fire on Warenda Station 1918 October 2 >100 000 sheep Fires spread over a huge area from Charleville to Blackall, Barcaldine, Hughenden 1918 October 5 Saltern Creek 1926 Forests, farms, sugar South-east corner of Queensland

  • Chapter 5 Ecosystem Health
    Chapter 5 Ecosystem Health Key Points Indicator Status of Indicator 5.1 Ecosystem water quality Since the 2003 Audit period, the number of locations exceeding ANZECC water quality guidelines has increased for physical parameters such as conductivity, remained high for nutrient parameters and reduced for toxicants. 5.2 Macroinvertebrates There are less sampled locations with similar to reference ratings compared with the 2003 Audit period. Macroinvertebrate assemblages at 32% of the sampled locations in the Catchment were found to be significantly impaired and 5% of all sampled locations had a severely impaired rating. 5.3 Fish Monitoring of fish communities in the Catchment is still needed as a potentially useful indicator of ecosystem health. 5.4 Riparian vegetation Riparian zones outside the Special Areas are likely to be under variable pressure due to little to no standing vegetation cover, stock access, and the presence of exotic species. Change in condition of vegetation in the riparian zone is not able to be determined. 5.5 Native vegetation Native vegetation covers approximately 50% of the Catchment. Approved land clearance substantially decreased over the 2005 Audit period. Healthy and intact natural ecosystems play a crucial role in maintaining water quality as they provide processes that help purify water, and mitigate the effects of drought and flood. An overall picture of the ecological health of a catchment can be achieved using tools such as water quality, habitat descriptions, biological monitoring and flow characteristics (Qld DNRM 2001). Ecosystem health assessment has become more ecologically based in recent years with biological measures such as ecosystem structure and species diversity having been added to traditional physico-chemical water quality analysis to provide a more comprehensive picture of the condition or catchment health (Qld DNRM 2001).
