    Roy Hill Celebrates Historic First Shipment

    10 December 2015 Roy Hill Celebrates Historic First Shipment Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd and Roy Hill Holdings Pty Ltd are pleased to announce the historic inaugural shipment from Port Hedland of low phosphorous iron ore from the Roy Hill mine on the MV ANANGEL EXPLORER bound for POSCO’s steel mills in South Korea. Mrs Gina Rinehart, Chairman of Hancock and Roy Hill Holdings Pty Ltd, said “The Roy Hill mega project is the culmination of hard-work from the dedicated small executive and technical teams at Hancock and more recently by the entire Roy Hill team.” “Given that the mega Roy Hill Project was a largely greenfield project that carried with it significant risks and considerable cost, it is remarkable that a relatively small company such as Hancock Prospecting has been able to take on and complete a project of this sheer size and complexity.” “The Roy Hill Project has recorded many achievements already and with the first shipment it will also hold one of the fastest construction start-ups of any major greenfield resource project in Australia. This is a considerable achievement, and although the media refer to a contractors date for shipment, it remains that the shipment still occurred ahead of what the partners schedule had planned in the detailed bankable feasibility study.” “The performance on the construction gives great confidence we can achieve performance as a player of international significance in the iron ore industry. To put the scale of the Roy Hill iron ore project into perspective in regard to Australia’s economy, when the mine is operating at its full capacity, Roy Hill will generate export revenue significantly greater than either Australia's lamb and mutton export industry or our annual wine exports.

    Media Release 18 June 2018 OFFER TO

    Media Release 18 June 2018 OFFER TO ACQUIRE SHARES IN ATLAS IRON LIMITED Redstone Corporation Pty Ltd (Redstone), a wholly‐owned subsidiary of Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd (Hancock), is pleased to announce an all‐cash offer to acquire all of the ordinary shares in Atlas Iron Limited (Atlas) in which Redstone does not already have a relevant interest, at a price of $0.042 per share (Offer). The Offer represents a superior value proposal for Atlas shareholders relative to the previously announced proposal from Mineral Resources Limited (MRL Proposal). Specifically, the Redstone offer represents a 41% premium to the implied value of that MRL Proposal as at close of trading on 15 June 20181. As the Offer is all cash, it is not subject to variations in the price of any other listed securities and therefore provides Atlas shareholders with certainty regarding the value of the consideration which they are being offered. The Offer is unconditional other than for the usual “prescribed occurrences”, as detailed in the Bidder’s Statement released today. As such, Atlas shareholders should have a high degree of certainty that they will receive the Offer consideration for their Atlas shares, should they choose to accept the Offer. Importantly, the Offer is not subject to any minimum acceptance condition. The directors of Redstone consider that the all‐cash Offer, with its premium pricing and low conditionality, represents a significantly superior proposition to the MRL Proposal and that the Offer should therefore be viewed as a compelling opportunity for Atlas shareholders. Tad Watroba, Executive Director of Hancock, said that the Atlas’ assets have long‐term synergies with other assets in Hancock’s portfolio.

    ~IVIEI::.. 3rd March 2012 Tim Bryant Secretariat Senate Economics Legislation Committee Parliament House CANBERRA ACT 2600 Dear Tim Senate Economics Committee Inquiry into the Minerals Resource Rent Tax - Questions on Notice Thank you for the opportunity of providing separate responses to various Questions on Notice asked at the Senate Economics Committee hearing held on 21 February 2012. AMEC would also like to provide some additional and relevant comments concerning the MRRT for the consideration of the Committee. Q from the Chair, page 56- How many small miners are currently making an annual profit of more than $75 million a year? Response In respect of the MRRT legislation, AMEC considers that a small miner should be defined as a miner producing less than ten million tons of iron ore or coal per annum. 1 2 According to Intierra , in the calendar year 2010 there were six iron ore producers and ten coal producers in production in this category. Examining the most recent annual reports of the iron ore3 producer's shows three of the six iron ore producers made a "company profit" in excess of $75 million. Four of these companies are single commodity producers (iron ore) while the other two produce other commodities. AMEC is unable to separate any iron ore profit from the balance of the company profits in the later two cases. Of the two iron ore companies mentioned by me in the hearing on 21 February, BC Iron only entered production in the first half of the 2011/12 financial year and therefore full annual financial data is unavailable.
