    Magellan Metals Pty Ltd Forward looking statements

    2

    Certain statements contained in this presentation constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of securities laws. All statements included herein (other than statements of historical facts) which address activities, events or developments that management anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements, including statements as to the following: the Ivernia Board’s approval of the management services agreement with Enirgi Group, the execution of a definittve agreement and receipt of any necessary regulatory approvals with respect to the management services agreement with Enirgi Group, the direct and indirect cost savings from the service agreement with Enirgi Group, the decision to restart and timing of the restart of operations, the financing requirements to restart the Mine, the cost and timing for completion of capital projects prior to restart, the timing of any steps required under the Operating Conditions before the end of the suspension of the Company’s transportation of lead carbonate from the Mine, the Company’s ability to comply with the new Operating Conditions, the duration of the period of care and maintenance commenced in April 2011 and the commencement of transportation of lead carbonate concentrate from the Mine, future targets and estimates for production, capital expenditures, operating costs, cash costs, mineral resources, mineral reserves, life of mine, recovery rates, grades and prices, business strategies and measures to implement such strategies, competitive strengths, estimated goals and plans for Ivernia’s future business operations, lead market outlook and other such matters. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as ‘‘seek’’, ‘‘anticipate’’, ‘‘contemplate’’, ‘‘target’’, ‘‘believe’’, ‘‘plan’’, ‘‘estimate’’, ‘‘expect’’, and ‘‘intend’’ and statements that an event or result ‘‘may’’, ‘‘will’’, ‘‘can’’, ‘‘should’’, ‘‘could’’ or ‘‘might’’ occur or be achieved and other similar expressions. These statements are based upon certain reasonable factors, assumptions and analyses made by management in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors management believes are appropriate in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform with management’s expectations is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including factors underlying management’s assumptions, such as, the duration of the suspension of the Company’s transportation of lead carbonate from the Mine, the duration of the period of care and maintenance commenced in April 2011, the timing, need and ability to raise additional financing, risks relating to the operations being placed on care and maintenance, matters relating the restart of mining and milling operations, matters relating to ramping up mining and milling throughput and operations, regulatory compliance and approvals, metal price volatility, lead carbonate concentrate treatment charges, exchange rates, regulatory proceedings and litigation, the fact that the Company has a single mineral property, resources and reserves, health and safety, environmental factors, mining risks, metallurgy, labour and employment regulations, government regulations, insurance, dependence on key personnel, constraints on cash flow, the nature of mineral exploration and development, matters relating generally to the transportation of lead carbonate, presence of a majority shareholder, matters related to public opinion, matters related to the Esperance settlement and shipments through the Port of Fremantle, and common share price volatility and the dilution of the Company’s common shares. Additional factors and considerations are discussed in the Company’s 2011 AIF under “Description of the Business of the Company – Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this presentation and in other documents filed from time to time by Ivernia with Canadian securities regulatory authorities. While Ivernia considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect. These factors may cause the actual results of the Company to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by management will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected results on the Company. Undue importance should not be placed on forward-looking information nor should reliance be placed upon this information as of any other date. Except as required by law, while it may elect to, Ivernia is under no obligation and does not undertake to update this information at any particular time.

    • Enirgi Group has demonstrated strong

    financial support for Ivernia through 2011 and

    2012.

    • Today Enirgi Group owns 58.90% of Ivernia’s

    issued and outstanding common shares.

    • On June 29, 2012, the Company announced a

    C$6 million loan facility with Enirgi Group at

    competitive terms – further demonstrating

    Enirgi Group’s financial support for Ivernia.

    • The Company will require further financing to

    restart the Magellan Mine which will be

    dependent on the finalization of restart plans

    and general market conditions (mainly lead price and f/x rate). Initial estimates indicate funding requirements in the range of

    approximately US$20 to US$25 million which

    includes the repayment of the fully drawn

    down $6 million facility in June 2013

    • Ivernia has requested an extension to the

    scheduled repayment date for the facility in an

    effort to reduce the overall funding

    requirements during restart, however any such

    repayment extension remains at the sole

    discretion of Enirgi Group.

    Magellan Metals Pty Ltd Magellan Mine Overview

    9

    Location – The Magellan Mine is located in

    central Western Australia, 30 km west of

    Wiluna and 750 km northeast of Perth. The

    Goldfields Highway passes the front entrance

    to the mine and Wiluna has an all-weather

    airstrip.

    People – Under normal operations the mine

    employs ~220 people commuting on a FIFO

    roster from Perth.

    Simple mining – Open pit mining is carried

    out to depths of only 50 metres with an

    average stripping ratio of 2.4:1.

    Processing opportunity – The milled ore is sulphurdized and then concentrated using

    traditional froth flotation. The processing plant was achieving best ever performance

    immediately prior to being placed on care and maintenance.

    Magellan Metals developed Best Practice concentrate transport system –

    Concentrate is loaded into 2 tonne bulka bags which are then sealed, vacuumed clean

    and then placed into shipping containers for transport by road, rail and sea to smelters

    around the world.

    1. As at December 31, 2011. Table entries are rounded to the second significant figure. For more information see Ivernia’s annual information form dated March 29, 2012 at www.ivernia.com or www.sedar.com. 2. Mineral resources are inclusive of mineral reserves. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental,

    permitting, legal, marketing, or other relevant issues. 3. Mineral resources have been reported based on a cut-off grade of 2.1% lead. Mineral resources are based on the Mineral Resource Report prepared by CSA Global Pty Ltd (“CSA”) titled “Magellan Lead Project – 2011 Mineral

    Resource Estimate” dated March 29, 2012 (the “Mineral Resource Report”). 4. Mineral resources are reported in accordance with the 2004 update of the JORC code, which is consistent with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best

    Practices Guidelines. 5. Jeff Elliott and Steve Rose of CSA are the “Qualified Persons” for purposes of National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators (“NI 43-101”), independent of Ivernia and have verified the above mineral resource

    figures, including the underlying sampling, analytical and test data. Data was verified by a site visit and review of Magellan Metals’ data. 6. Contained lead is total lead mined; planned plant recovery is over 75% as per the life of mine plan and 95% payable contained lead. 7. Mineral reserves are based upon mineral resource estimates set out above, which, in turn, are based on the Mineral Resource Report prepared by CSA. 8. Mineral reserves are a subset of measured and indicated mineral resources. All mineral reserves are reported in accordance with the JORC Code. The JORC Code uses the term “ore reserve” which is equivalent to the term “mineral

    reserve”, as defined in NI 43-101. 9. Mineral reserves have been reported based on a cut-off grade of 2.1% Pb, an exchange rate of US$0.95/A$1.00, a lead price of US$2,200 per tonne (approx. A$2,316 per tonne) and estimated operating costs. 10.Mr. Andy Robb (General Manager, Technical Services of Magellan Metals) is a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and is responsible for the mineral reserves and has prepared and verified the above mineral

    reserve figures. Mr. Robb is a “Qualified Person” within the meaning of NI 43-101. 11.Mineral reserves have a waste to ore ratio of 2.4 to 1. 12.Based on production rates of 1.7 to 2.0 million tonnes of ore processed per annum; such increase in production rates is subject to regulatory approval.

    • In March 2011, Ivernia published an updated technical report on Magellan

    – with significant increases in

    resources and reserves and a mine

    life extending beyond 10 years.

    • With this significantly larger resource and reserve base Magellan has

    tremendous leverage to lead prices as

    this NPV (8%) table showing lead

    price and A$/US$ f/x rates from the

    technical report demonstrates.

    • The NPVs above are based on a static reserves (from the previous slide) in which only ~49% of the M&I resources are converted into 2P reserves. At higher metal prices, more of the M&I

    resources convert into reserves and higher NPVs can be expected. At metal prices of $3,800

    per tonne, it is expected that over 90% of the M&I resources convert into 2P reserves.

    • The Enirgi Group and Ivernia are committed to working together to restore shareholder value for all shareholders of Ivernia with a business model for a long term sustainable Magellan

    operation.

    • Additional areas of opportunity to enhance the 43-101 report valuation are being explored through a number of projects being worked on with the Enirgi Group

  • Responsibly Lead

    Magellan Metals Pty Ltd Lead Markets and Price performance

    12

    • In 2011 the world consumed 10.3 million tonnes of lead – a 2.4 million

    tonne or 30% increase since 2005.

    • Approx. 90% of the world’s lead is consumed in batteries.

    • China consumed approx. 4.6 million tonnes or 45% of the worlds lead in

    2011 – 2.0 million tonnes of which

    was for E-bike batteries (CHR

    Metals).

    • A number of analysts continue to forecast strong growth in lead

    consumption – driven by demand in

    China. • In September 2012, BNP Paribas forecast a lead price of $2,550 per tonne for 2013 and $2,825

    per tonne for 2014.

    • In the Q2 2012Thompson Reuters survey of base metals analysts, a median price of $2,250 per tonne was forecast for 2013.

    • Lead prices peaked around $3,700 per tonne in late 2007 – the last slide demonstrates the Magellan valuation leverage in the event of a return to those lead price levels.

  • Responsibly Lead

    Magellan Metals Pty Ltd Lead prices relative to Copper and Zinc

    13

    • Lead and Zinc prices have traded in

    very close ranges in recent years.

    • Both have significantly

    underperformed Copper.

    • A number of analysts forecast

    stronger lead and zinc prices as we

    move through this decade.

    • In lead, a number of significant mine

    closures are slated for the middle part

    of this decade with few large new

    projects coming on stream.

    • Ivernia continues to hold the view that

    this could create the environment for

    stronger lead prices during the

    second half of this decade.

    Magellan Metals Pty Ltd Concentrate transportation system

    • Magellan Metals has implemented a concentrate transport system which is acknowledged by the Western Australian EPA as best practice

    – Concentrate is placed in waterproof and sift proof bags and sealed

    – The bags are loaded into cleaned containers which are then locked

    – Containers are trucked to Leonora and then railed to Fremantle for export

    – Over 3,000 samples taken at over 300 sample sites along the transport

    route have shown no evidence of concentrate escaping from the bags or

    containers

    – The trigger levels for some sample sites are less than 100th of the national

    health standards

    – The Magellan Metals process eliminates potential dust-generating

    transfer points in the transport process

    Magellan Metals Pty Ltd Magellan Metals today

    – Following a series of events in early 2011, we voluntarily took the hard decision in

    April 2011 to put our only operation on Care & Maintenance and reduced our

    employee and contractor workforce from 235 to ~30

    – We have used this down time to upgrade our compliance and risk management

    systems as well as improve our capabilities in a number of different areas

    – We have worked pro-actively with the WA Government and Regulators to address

    their concerns and those of the community resulting in the receipt of updated

    operating conditions (“Operating Conditions”) on July 27, 2012

    – In general, the Operating Conditions preserve and, in some cases, enhance the

    already strict auditing, monitoring, management and reporting requirements

    previously imposed on Magellan Metals.

    – The Company is strongly committed to meeting the obligations outlined in the

    Operating Conditions and demonstrating that the containerized shipping of the

    Company’s product is both safe and appropriate.

    20

  • Responsibly Lead

    Magellan Metals Pty Ltd Operating Conditions

    – Below are two quotes from the Minister for Environment upon releasing the

    Operating Conditions on July 27, 2012:

    – “Despite the detection of several lead exceedances last year, no lead concentrate

    was found to have escaped into the environment from the double lined bags within

    Magellan’s locked shipping containers.

    – “Some of the lead exceedances to date were attributed to historical lead handling at

    various sites and not from Magellan’s recent operations. Others were a result of

    naturally occurring lead levels in the environment.”

    21

  • Responsibly Lead

    Magellan Metals Pty Ltd Magellan Mine Restart – Key Points

    – A restart of operations is targeted for the second quarter of 2013.

    – The Operating Conditions require that certain actions be undertaken by the Company prior to the re-

    commencement of transport.

    technical skills that increase recoveries and efficiencies.
