Prime Area and Location

 Total project area 893 claims covering


8,773 hectares of land.
 Purchased oil/gas lease and well at Cane
Creek 32-1
 Applied for industrial lease at Cane Creek
 Estimated an exploration target of
between 65M tonnes (311 million barrels)
and 130M tonnes (622 million barrels).

Estimated exploration target calculation*


*Refer ASX release dated 16 May 2018. The Exploration Target is conceptual in nature as there has been
insufficient exploration undertaken on the project to name a Mineral Resource. It is uncertain that future
exploration will result in a Mineral Resource.

Paradox Lithium Project – JORC
JORC Report Being Prepared
 Numerous existing wells available for further
re-entry sampling
 Approval provided for one new well and NOI
being prepared for an additional new well
