DISCLAIMER
The information in this report that relates to Exploration Results and Mineral Resources is based on information compiled by Stephen Biggins
(BSc(Hons)Geol, MBA) as Managing Director of Core Exploration Ltd who is a member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and is
bound by and follows the Institute’s codes and recommended practices. He has sufficient experience which is relevant to the styles of mineralisation
and types of deposits under consideration and to the activities being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of
the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Mr. Biggins consents to the inclusion in the
report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
This document has been prepared by Core Exploration Limited (“Core”, “Company”) and provided as a basic overview of the tenements held or
controlled by the company. This presentation does not purport to be all-inclusive or to contain all the information that you or any other party may
require to evaluate the prospects of the Company.

damage arising in respect of your reliance on the information contained in this document (including your reliance on the accuracy, completeness or
reliability of that information), or any errors in or omissions from this presentation, including any liability arising from negligence.
The mineral tenements of the Company as described in this presentation are at various stages of exploration, and potential investors should
understand that mineral exploration and development are high-risk undertakings.
There can be no assurance that exploration of the Tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery
of an economic ore deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.
This document contains statements which may be in the nature of forward-looking statements. No representation or warranty is given, and nothing in
this presentation or any other information made available by the Company or any other party should be relied upon as a promise or representation,
as to the future condition of the respective businesses and operations of the Company.
