ARKAROOLA JV: Proposed Development Concept Evaluation Study (Jan 2008) recommends: Staged development using ISL mining subject to successful Field Leach Trial. Field Leach Trial scheduled to commence 2Q 2008 subject to regulatory approvals. Uranium concentrate production proposed to commence 2010, at projected start-up capacity of 1.5Mlb p.a., potentially increasing to 4.5Mlb p.a. Plant from Beverley Uranium Mine proposed to be used to process ISL solution, subject to agreement between parties. Alliance anticipates the following: Decision to Mine anticipated in 2008. Start-up capital estimated in the order of A$20 to A$25 million. Operating costs dependent on outcome of FLT, e.g. well field pattern, drilling depth, pore volumes, plant throughput, etc. Page 20
MALDON PROJECT: Gold Strategy: Prove the concept that Maldon can be profitably mined using minimal capital outlay Alliance (100%) 30km SW of Bendigo in central Victoria Historic production 1.75 M oz Targeting high-grade, narrow vein gold lodes Decline in progress (1200+m completed) Fully owned CIL plant Page 21
