Copper/Gold Capital Growth through Exploration Success
2
Red Metal - Unique Market Appeal
3
Red Metal - Assets Australia-wide Cu exploration alliance with Phelps Dodge. Pipe line drill- ready targets on 33 licences 5 PD-funded J.V.’s Projects are hand- picked in fertile terrain's, >15,000km Acquired at bottom of cycle Olympic Dam Broken Hill Prominent Hill Mt Isa Ernest Henry Browns HYC Century Nifty Base metal mines and projects Red Metal project 100% CaningtonOsborne Copper mines and projects Red Metal managed/ PD-funded J.V. Gawler Curnamona Mt Isa Pine Creek McArthur Basin Tennant Creek Tenant Creek

Exploration Strategy Giant high-grade, copper+gold deposits; IOCG, Mt Isa and Zambian styles. In fertile Early-Middle Proterozoic terrain's. Refined exploration models. Deposits containing >1 million tonnes Cu >15% IRR or greater Explore in covered portions of highly prospective terrain's. Utilise cost effective, new technology. Undertake drill intensive programs.

Gawler - Regional Scale
9
Gawler - Peak Denison J.V.’s Large IOCG system below 50-400m of cover. Similar regional setting to Olympic Dam system. Limited previous drilling Reprocessing and re- interpretation of regional data complete. Several structure controlled magnetic and gravity targets. PD funding, Red Metal 18%-21% free carried to DTM. Drilling in 2004.

Gawler - Peak and Denison J.V.’s Olympic Dam analogy: discordant NE trending structure, coincident magnetic and gravity, deep seated magmatic source, basement 295m TMI Gravity 20km 200m Basement 100m RTZ RTZ/BHP RTZ RTZ/BHP RTZ
11
Gawler - Moonta J.V. Moonta J.V. with Adelaide Res. 8km Large IOCG system under shallow cover. Historic Cu,Au mines. Excellent infrastructure. Reprocessed and re- interpreted historic and new data. Initial RAB drilling completed over Moonta J.V. RC and DDH drill targets defined (PD spent > $A1M). Drilling initiated Feb 2004. PD funding, Red Metal 21% free carried to DTM. TMI

Mt Isa - Regional Scale Red Metal acquired 100% Fertile terrain Re-interpretation of data Buried geophysical drill targets with potential for a giant FeOx Cu-Au deposit. Public funds raised used to drill test and generate new plays. PD retain claw back option up to 70% of major discovery. Red Metal free carried 30-40% to DTM
