Blueys Silver Project• Very high grades of 4.5kg/t (4,500g/t) silver and

10% copper at surface

• Peak value of 25,250ppb silver is well above 100ppb commonly regarded as anomalous

• Inkheart Prospect also characterised by extremely high silver in soils

•Core’s IP geophyics finds new drill targets below extremely anomalous silver in soil and high-grade rock chips

•Core’s Blueys Prospect has a footprint of 500m x 250m assaying over 1,000ppb Ag. Peak silver in soil value is 25,250ppb Ag.

•Core’s Inkheart Prospect has a footprint of 1,400m x 300m assaying over 1,000ppb Ag. Peak silver in soil value is 19,552ppb Ag.

• Investigator Resources Ltd (ASX: IVR) flagship Paris Prospect in SA has a footprint of 1,200m x 300m assaying over 100ppb Ag. with a centre of about 200m over 500ppb Ag. and a peak silver in soil value of 1,629ppb. These results led to a high grade silver discovery and a substantial increase in market cap for IVR.

IOCG ProspectivityAssessment from multiple independent sources

•Copper prospectivity of the region well documented by NTGS

•Other explorers have confirmed potential to the east and west of Core’s tenements

• 2012 assessment by Geoscience Australia confirmed high IOCG prospectivity

•Core’s internal assessment verifies IOCG potential

SummaryCore’s has moved to full ownership of the Albarta Project in Australia’s new exploration hotspot in the NT :

•Core has 100%-ownership* of 20 tenements covering over 2,000km2 in the NT

•Multiple occurrences of mineralisation at surface a strong indicator of prospectivity

•Core is drilling Blueys and Inkheart Silver Prospects

•Phase 2 drilling at Albarta will target copper at Virginia, Copper Royals and Greater Paradise Well

•Drill results pending from Blueys and Inkheart in the next few weeks

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.

TThe 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

The presentation includes exploration information that was prepared and first disclosed by Core under the JORC Code 2004.
