Penfold Project:
AU:
* The Penfold Project contains 267,000 oz Au of JORC compliant resources in thirteen prospects
* Existing resources are yet to be reviewed or optimised at current gold prices
* All resources are within a short trucking distance to several mills in the area including Harmony’s Jubilee
* The Penfold Project contains some of the most highly prospective and richly gold endowed shears in Australia.
* Dioro plan to spend between $1.5M and $2.0M in the next 12 months on exploration at the Penfold Project.
NI
* Dioro is acquiring from Harmony a large land holding in the Kalgoorlie-Kambalda District with exceptional Ni prospectivity – historically the tenure has been held exclusively by gold focused explorers.
* The project area covers extensions of 3 major ultramafic belts, all of which contain demonstable nickel sulphide production and/or exploration potential
* Dioro is planning to review the nickel potential as very little nickel exploration has been undertaken on the project in recent times.
Frogs Leg Deposit (Mungari East Project):
* The Frog’s Leg deposit contains a resource of 865,000 ounces
grading 5.9g/t gold (excludes open pit gold production of 130,000oz)
and is open at depth below 400m and along strike to the north and
south. The current drilling program underway has the potential to
add up to 500,000 ounces to this resource inventory.
* A Dioro Frog’s Leg underground pre-feasibility study was released
to the market in June 2006 confirming a robust underground resource.
The underground study produces 2.77 million tonnes grading 5.43
g/t Au over 7.5 years for an operating surplus of up to $158.5 million
at a A$800/oz gold price.
* The partners are set to announce a resource upgrade in June and while a bankable feasibility study is not due until next quarter, they have already started to assemble mining equipment and personnel ahead of a start to production in 2008.
