Amazon Bay Ironsands Project foyson...abundant harvest April 2013
Overview
Nearly 200 km stretch of coast line, 150 km south east of Port Moresby, PNG
Focus on 30 km long Threadfin area, which has exploration target of 630 million tonnes¹
Concentrate of 52% Fe, 1% V2O5 & 17% TiO2 to be produced on site
Metallurgical processes now exist to separate out high purity vanadium and titanium products, from the iron
Low cost, well tested production process - similar to New Zealand Iron & Steel operation
¹ Quantity estimate based on previous drilling, Landsat and available radiometrics covering Amazon Bay dune formation.Refer Disclaimer Cautionary Statement

Project Strategy
Analysis indicates 10% of ironsands reports to Heavy Minerals concentrate
Build project in 15 mtpa “modules” to produce 1.5 mtpa HM concentrate
Module comprises:
2000tph cutter/suction dredge Floating Wet Concentrator plant Land based screening and selective grinding facility Stockpiling Single-point ship loading

Amazon BayComparative Advantages
Relatively close to China
Limited environmental impediments
Low population on the resource area
Unlimited freshwater
Can be dredged due to high water table
Can pre-fabricate plant offshore in lower cost environment
Ocean transport of product possible
Coastline is more protected compared to the open coastline of south Java and South America

Cost Estimates
Based on mining 15mtpa of ironsands to produce 1.5mtpa of HM concentrate, costs are estimated at:
Capital cost A$160-180million Operating cost A$29/tonne concentrate FOB
These compare favourably with other ironsands projects under consideration in Asia/Pacific and South America

Secondary Processing
The HM concentrate can be processed to produce high purity titanium, vanadium and ironThere are two process routes available
Pyrometallurgy: involves a reducing, high temperature environment to produce molten iron, with titanium and vanadium slags, for further processing
Hydrometallurgy: involves leaching and solvent extration to produce three high purity metals
Pilot scale testing of both these processes is underway world-wide on various Fe/Ti /V deposits;

Amazon Bay is a very large Fe/Ti /V resource
The project has very favourable logistics for supply of a HM concentrate into China and Asia generally
The HM component of the ironsands is typically higher than other comparable iron sands projects
The current market value of Amazon Bay is only 5% to 10% of comparable ironsands projects

1 To the extent that there is information set out in this document, any potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, as there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource under the JORC Code and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a mineral resource under the JORC Code. Quantity estimate based on previous drilling, Landsat and available radiometrics covering Amazon Bay dune formation.
