YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT
The business of the Annual General Meeting affects your shareholding and your vote
is important.
HOW TO VOTE
Shareholders can vote by either:
•
attending the meeting and voting in person or by attorney or, in the case of corporate
shareholders, by appointing a corporate representative to attend and vote;
•
appointing a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf using the proxy form
accompanying this Notice of Meeting and by submitting their proxy appointment
and voting instructions in person, by post, or by facsimile; or
•
lodging your proxy and voting online at www.investorvote.com.au by following the
instructions set out on the attached Proxy Form.
VOTING IN PERSON
Shareholders, or their attorneys, who plan to attend the Meeting are asked to arrive at the
venue 15 minutes prior to the time designated for the Meeting, if possible, so that their
holding may be checked against the Company's share register and attendance recorded.
Attorneys should bring with them an original or certified copy of the power of attorney
under which they have been authorised to attend and vote at the Meeting.
VOTING BY A CORPORATION
A Shareholder that is a corporation may appoint an individual to act as its representative
and vote in person at the Meeting. The appointment must comply with the requirements of
Section 250D of the Corporations Act. The representative should bring to the Meeting
evidence of his or her appointment, including any authority under which it is signed.
Shareholders can download and fill out the “Appointment of Corporate Representative”
form from the website of the Company’s share registry at:
https://www-au.computershare.com/Investor/help/PrintableForms.
VOTING BY PROXY
•
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint not more than two
proxies. Each proxy will have the right to vote on a poll and also to speak at
the Meeting.
•
The appointment of the proxy may specify the proportion or the number of votes that
the proxy may exercise. Where more than one proxy is appointed and the
appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder's votes
each proxy may exercise, the votes will be divided equally among the proxies (i.e.
where there are two proxies, each proxy may exercise half of the votes).
•
A proxy need not be a Shareholder.
•
The proxy can be either an individual or a body corporate.
•
If a proxy votes, they must cast all directed proxies as directed.
•
If a proxy does not vote on a resolution which has been directed by the Shareholder,
the proxy for that resolution will automatically default to the Chair, who will vote the
proxy as directed.
•
If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may generally
vote, or abstain from voting, as they think fit.
However, where a member of the Key Management Personnel or a Closely Related Party of
such a member is appointed as a proxy, the proxy may only vote on Resolution 1 if the proxy
is the Chair of the Meeting and the appointment expressly authorises the Chair to exercise
the proxy.
•
If you choose to appoint a proxy, you are encouraged to direct your proxy how to
vote on Resolution 1 (Adoption of the Remuneration Report).
•
Should any resolution, other than those specified in this Notice of Meeting, be
proposed at the Meeting, a proxy may vote on that resolution as they think fit.
•
If a proxy is instructed to abstain from voting on an item of business, they are
directed not to vote on the Shareholder's behalf on the poll and the Shares that are the
subject of the proxy appointment will not be counted in calculating the required
majority.
•
If a proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on a
resolution then the proxy must not vote on a show of hands.
•
Shareholders who return their proxy forms with a direction how to vote but do not
nominate the identity of their proxy will be taken to have appointed the Chairman of
the meeting as their proxy to vote on their behalf.
•
If a proxy form is returned but the nominated proxy does not attend the meeting, the
Chairman of the meeting will act in place of the nominated proxy and vote in
accordance with any instructions. Proxy appointments in favour of the Chairman of
the Meeting, the Company Secretary or any Director that do not contain a direction
how to vote will be used where possible to support each of the resolutions proposed
in this Notice of Meeting, provided they are entitled to cast votes as a proxy under the
voting exclusion rules which apply to some of the proposed resolutions.

RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF THE REMUNERATION REPORT
2.1
Introduction
In accordance with section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act the Company is required
to put a resolution at its Annual General Meeting to its Shareholders that the
Remuneration Report be adopted.
The Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2016 contains a Remuneration
Report which explains the Board’s policies in relation to the nature and level of
remuneration paid to Key Management Personnel (including Directors), and sets
out remuneration details, service agreements and the details of any share
based compensation.
Under the Corporations Act, if 25% or more of votes that are cast are voted against
the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general
meetings, Shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those annual
general meetings on a resolution that a further meeting is held at which all of the
Company’s Directors who were directors of the Company when the resolution to
make the directors’ report considered at the second of those annual general
meetings was passed (other than the Managing Director) must go up for re-election.
The vote on the Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the
Company. A reasonable opportunity will be provided for Shareholders to ask
questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report at the Annual
General Meeting.
2.2
Voting on the Remuneration Report
Pursuant to the Corporations Act, if you elect to appoint a member of Key
Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the
Remuneration Report (other than the Chair) or any Closely Related Party of that
member as your proxy to vote on the Remuneration Report, you must direct the
proxy how they are to vote. Where you do not direct a member of Key Management
Personnel (other than the Chair) whose remuneration details are included in the
Remuneration Report or Closely Related Party of that member on how to vote on
the Remuneration Report, the proxy is prevented by the Corporations Act from
exercising your vote and your vote will not be counted in relation to this Resolution.
The above note on voting does not apply if the voter is the Chair of the meeting and
the undirected proxy expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even
though the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a
member of the Key Management Personnel for the Company.
3.
RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – FELICITY GOODING
The Company’s Constitution allows the Directors to appoint at any time a person to
be a Director, either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing
Directors, but only where the total number of Directors does not at any time exceed
the maximum number specified by the Constitution.
Any Director so appointed holds office only until the next Annual General Meeting
and is then eligible for re-election.
Ms Gooding, appointed to the Board on 18 February 2016, retires in accordance with
Article 6.3(j) of the Constitution and being eligible, seeks re-election.
Details of Ms Gooding’s qualifications and experience are set out in the Company's
2016 Annual Report.
4.
RESOLUTION 3 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – MARKUS ELSASSER
Article 6.3(c) of the Company’s Constitution requires that at the Annual General
Meeting in every year one-third of the Directors (rounded down to the nearest
whole number excepting the Managing Director), must retire from office.
A Director who retires by rotation under Article 6.3(c) of the Constitution is eligible
for re-election.
Dr Markus Elsasser, last elected to the Board on 21 November 2013, retires in
accordance with Article 6.3(c) of the Constitution and being eligible,
seeks re-election.
Details of Dr Markus Elsasser’s qualifications and experience are set out in the
Company's 2016 Annual Report.

investors at 2.4 cents per Share.
The Company issued the Shares without prior Shareholder approval out of its 15%
annual placement capacity.
Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that
where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made
pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not
breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made
with Shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity
securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX
Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
5.2
Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5

is provided in relation to the issue of the Shares and Options:

of whom were a related party of the Company; and
e)
the funds will be used for (i) a drill programme at the Company’s Commonwealth,
Silica Hill, Doughnut and Welcome Jack Prospects; (ii) follow up work at the
Company’s Broken Hill Project; and (iii) working capital.

RESOLUTION 5 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES
6.1
General
On 26 May 2016, the Company announced that it had raised $250,000 via a
placement of 10,416,667 Shares to a sophisticated investor at 2.4 cents per Share.
The Company issued the Shares without prior Shareholder approval out of its 15%
annual placement capacity.
Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the
issue of these Shares.
A summary of ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4 is set out in Section 5.1.
By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity
securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX
Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
6.2
Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information
is provided in relation to the issue of the Shares and Options:
a)
10,416,667 Shares were issued;

the Shares were issued at 2.4 cents per Share;

7.
RESOLUTION 6 – APPROVAL OF ADDITIONAL 10% PLACEMENT FACILITY
7.1
General
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities, subject to Shareholder approval, to
issue Equity Securities up to 10% of their issued share capital through placements
over a 12 month period after the Annual General Meeting (10% Placement Facility).
The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity
under Listing Rule 7.1.
An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not
included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million
or less. The Company is an eligible entity, as its market capitalisation based on a
Share price of $0.03 (being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on
15 September 2016) is less than $300 million.
The Company is now seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution
to have the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility.
The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility
will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2
(refer to Section 7.2(c) below).
Resolution 6 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the
votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by
attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).
The Directors of the Company believe that Resolution 6 is in the best interests of
the Company and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of
this Resolution.
7.2
Description of Listing Rule 7.1A
a)
Shareholder approval
The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to
Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an AGM.
b)
Equity Securities
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same
class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company.
As at the date of this Notice, the Company has on issue only one class of quoted
Equity Securities, namely quoted Shares.
c)
Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility
Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder
approval at an AGM may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after
the date of the AGM, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with
the following formula:
(A x D) – E
A
is the number of shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or
agreement:
(i)
plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under an
exception in Listing Rule 7.2;
(ii)
plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the
12 months;
(iii)
plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with
approval of holders of shares under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4. This does
not include an issue of fully paid shares under the entity’s 15%
placement capacity without shareholder approval;
(iv)
less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.
Note that A has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating
an entity’s 15% placement capacity.
d)
D
is 10%;
E
is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing
Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue
that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1
or 7.4.
Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A
The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in
addition to the entity’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
At the date of this Notice, the Company has on issue 788,771,085 Shares. The actual
number of Equity Securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under
Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Equity Securities in
accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 7.2(c)
above).
e)
Minimum Issue Price
The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less
than 75% of the Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) of Equity Securities in
the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class
were recorded immediately before:
f)
(i)
the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is
agreed; or
(ii)
if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date in
paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
10% Placement Period
Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid
from the date of the AGM at which the approval is obtained and expires on the
earlier to occur of:
(i)
the date that is 12 months after the date of the AGM at which the approval is
obtained; or
(ii)
the date of the approval by shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rules
11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal
of main undertaking),
or such longer period if allowed by ASX (10% Placement Period).
7.3
Listing Rule 7.1A
The effect of Resolution 6 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities
under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without using the
Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
7.4
Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A
In accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the following information is provided in
relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility:
(a)
(b)
The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of
the VWAP for the Company's Equity Securities over the 15 Trading Days on
which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
(i)
the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be
issued is agreed; or
(ii)
if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date
in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities
are issued.
If Resolution 6 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity
Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' voting
power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the table below. There is a
risk of economic and voting dilution to existing Shareholders in approving the
10% Placement Facility, including the risks that:
(i)
the market price for the Company's Equity Securities may be
significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than
on the da
