Growth

§ Improved Evaluation - Modern exploration techniques notapplied to much of the Bolnisi region

§ Data Re-interpretation- 70 years of data containsinformation that has never been used to its full potential.Historic Soviet led exploration failed to follow up obvioustargets

§ Geophysics - An Induced Polarisation survey will beundertaken in Q2 2016 to assess extensions both alongstrike and at depth

§ New Geological Model - Continue to develop the Bolnisigeological model built around calderas and regionallineaments focusing mineralisation.

§ Scope for VMS discoveries around loci of other regionalstructures. Potential for discovery of high-grade gold brecciabodies

§ Additional Targets - Intersection of NW oriented gravimetricanomalies and NNE-SSW deep-seated basement structuressimilar to the Ceratepe model (4Mt @ 5% Cu, 1.0g/t Au &28g/t Ag) and could contain very significant mineralisation
