o 1.94Mt @ 0.69% Co for:

o 276,000 tonnes of Cu and 42,500 tonnes of Co

The Mineral Resource estimate only considers oxide mineralisation from one of the several fragments

of Roan rocks that occur within the Project area.

The Company anticipates that there is significant potential to expand the current resource both down

dip and at depth and that there is potential to discover new zones of mineralisation by drill-testing of

the other fragments of Roan series rock units.

Of the current resource 85% lies within 150m of surface with an average grade of 2.75% Cu.

Within the resource are significant zones of high-grade (+3%) secondary Cu mineralisation (malachite),

and scoping studies have commenced to examine options for an accelerated low-cost Heavy Media

Separation (“HMS”) operation.

The resource includes a near-surface and very high-grade Co unit that has potential to be selectively

mined and processed.

Phase I diamond drilling programme of 12 diamond holes for 1,785m was completed and all assay

results received.

Significant intersections include:

o DKAL_DD086: 76.7m @ 4.06% Cu & 0.59% Co from 37.4m

incl. 19.4m @ 9.82% Cu & 0.60% Co

Kalongwe Mining – Copper/Cobalt Project

Kalongwe Project Overview

The Kalongwe JV Project is covered by permit PR 12198 held by Kalongwe Mining SA a DRC registered

company. Shares in Kalongwe Mining are currently owned by and by Regal and Traxys, who each have a

30% interest and by GICC who hold a 40% interest

The project is located towards the western end of the World Class Central African Copperbelt. It is

situated some 15km south from Ivanhoe Mines, Kamoa deposit (considered to be Africa’s largest recent

high-grade copper discovery) and is approximately 45km from the copper mining and processing centre

at Kolwezi (Figure 1).

The Central African Copperbelt (Figure 1), hosts some of the world's most continuous, largest and richest

sediment-hosted copper and cobalt deposits known, with over 90% of the copper deposits hosted in

Mine Series rock of the Lower Roan sequence.

MEDIA / ASX RELEASE

Within the Project area a number of fragments of Mine Series rocks have been identified by regional

geological mapping. These occur along the core of a southwest-trending anticline structure. Of the

identified fragments the most prominent is the Kalongwe fragment which outcrops and hosts significant

supergene mineralisation at surface, and has been tested over a strike length of about 400m.

Mineralisation plunges to the north-east at approximately 35° to 40°.

The Kalongwe fragment was explored by a fifty four (54) hole diamond drilling programme of

approximately 10,000m by Ivanhoe Mines over the period 2006 to 2007. Regal has further tested the

fragment with a twelve (12) hole, Phase I diamond drilling programme of 1,785m that was completed

this Quarter.

Drill coverage is generally on a 100m by 100m (locally 50 by 50m) grid spacing, and the drilling extends

to an average drill hole depth of 220m vertically below surface with one historic hole being drilled to

about 520m.

The mineralisation is predominantly secondary, and is primarily stratabound. The principal copper oxide

minerals above the base of oxidation are malachite and chrysocolla, with minor amounts of azurite.

Cobalt occurs as heterogenite. Below the base of oxidation chalcocite and minor bornite and chalcopyrite

have been observed. The base of oxidation varies from 150 to 180 m vertically below the surface.

Mineralisation is found in veins and breccias and as disseminated blebs and grains in stratigraphic

horizons. Broad zones of high-grade copper-cobalt mineralisation extend down-dip, broadly

conformable with dipping strata. Minor structural stratigraphic offsets are present, however local re-

mobilisation of mineralisation during weathering has resulted in reasonable good lateral and down-dip

continuity of supergene mineralisation.

A revised geological model based on surface mapping and core logging identifies that the copper-cobalt

mineralisation at the Kalongwe fragment is hosted within Mines Series (Lower Roan) stratigraphic units

that have been shaped into a recumbent (tilted) isoclinal fold structure. The fold hinge strikes north-

south and strata in the normal and overturned limb of the fold are dipping to the east-southeast. The

strata in both limbs show evidence of faulting and fragmentation.

Interpretation of drill core data shows that mineralisation is preferentially hosted in deformed

sedimentary units of the Lower Mine Series (R2) of the Roan Group. It also confirms that the geology of

the deposit has characteristics typical of the majority of the strataform Congolese Copperbelt type

deposits which host over 90% of operating mines in Katanga Province, DRC.

Phase I Drilling Programme

During the reporting period the Company completed the Phase I diamond drilling which comprised a

total of 12 holes for an aggregate of 1,785m (Figure 2) (Table 1).

MEDIA / ASX RELEASE

The primary aim of the Phase I programme was to validate historic drill data that has been obtained from

Ivanhoe Mines in order that the historic drill results could be incorporated into a JORC standard Mineral

Resource estimate.

The first four holes of the Phase 1 programme (DKAL_DD010T, DD011T, DD017T and DD022T,) were twin

holes designed to test the integrity of the historic drilling data, (Figure 2).

The remaining eight holes completed in the programme were either infill holes to test for the lateral

continuity of mineralisation between historic holes, (generally drilled on 100m x 100m centres), or drilled

as extension holes to target for additional zones of mineralisation.

MEDIA / ASX RELEASE

The overall results of the Phase I programme (Table 2) are considered very encouraging:

They confirmed and have extended the lateral continuity of the two principle Copper

mineralised horizons.

A near surface, discrete, high grade and laterally extensive zone of cobalt mineralisation was

delineated.

The overall grade and width of the mineralised intersections of the twin holes correlate within

an acceptable level of variation with the mineralised intervals reported for the historic holes

that were twinned.

The outcome of the Phase I programme provided a high level of confidence that the results of the historic

drill holes can be incorporated into the database that would be used to estimate the maiden JORC

Mineral Resource.

A geological review was completed of both the historic and recent data in order to prepare geological

and mineralisation interpretations that would form the basis of a maiden JORC compliant Mineral

Resource estimate.

Kalongwe JV Maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimate

During the Quarter the Company announced a maiden JORC complaint Mineral Resource estimate for

the Kalongwe fragment “ecaille”.

The Kalongwe Mineral Resource estimate was prepared by the Perth based, independent geological

consulting group CSA Global Pty Ltd (‘CSA’) and is reported in accordance with the principles of the

Australian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, 2012 edition

(JORC 2012).

The Mineral Resource estimate is reported at a lower cut-off grade of 0.5% Cu and 0.2% Co (Table 3).

2. The Co only domains were reported by selecting blocks with Co >= 0.2%.

3. The Mixed Domains (blocks located within overlapping Cu and Co domains) were reported by selecting

blocks with Cu >= 0.5%. The Co grade from these blocks was also recorded.

4. It is assumed for the purposes of this Mineral Resource that Cu grades in the Co only domains, and Co

grades in the Cu only domains are 0%, although low grade mineralisation was recorded in sample.

The basis for the Mineral Resource estimate are the drilling results of the Company’s Phase l programme

and the historic drilling results obtained from Ivanhoe Mines. This data was used to produce a detailed

3D geological model of the Kalongwe deposit.

Mineralised wireframes were generated by CSA using lower cut-off grades of 0.50% Cu and 0.20% Co.

The wireframes were created by joining mineralisation polygons based upon geological knowledge of

the deposit, derived from drill core logs and geological observations on surface. For Mineral Resource

estimate purposes the distribution of Copper-Cobalt mineralisation within the deposit was modelled as

three different metal domains, each representing the significant metal content of that particular

mineralised domain within the overall block model.

Domain 1 - has Copper but no significant Cobalt, Domain 2 - has Cobalt but no significant Copper and

Domain 3 - has significant Copper and Cobalt mineralisation.

The relative positions of the various mineralised domains can be seen in (Figure 3).

There is a near-surface zone of predominantly Cobalt mineralisation, and beneath this are mixed Copper-

Cobalt mineralisation zones, and at a greater depth is a Copper-only zone of mineralisation.

Within the overall resource model mineralistion averages 20m to 40m true width but can reach widths

of up to 70m true width. Approximately 85 % of the identified Mineral Resource for the Copper domains

lies within 150 metres of the surface with an average grade of 2.75% Cu. Mineralisation.

While over 97% of the resource represents oxide mineralisation a number of the historic Ivanhoe drill

holes intercepted sulphide Copper mineralisation below the base of oxidation. The Copper sulphide

intercepts from five of these holes were included in the mineralised model, and are incorporated into the

Mineral Resource estimate.

While the exploration work that has been undertaken and the resulting data is of high quality a

classification of Inferred under the JORC code has been applied, to reflect that drilling was generally on

100m by 100m centres.

MEDIA / ASX RELEASE

A grade tonnage inventory of the metal contained within the mineralised wireframes was produced using

various levels of cut-off grades. The graph shows that the Mineral Resource is not particularly sensitive

to cut-off grade and even at 1% Copper cut off retain in excess of 90% of its metal content.

Kalongwe Project – Future Potential

The Company considers that there remains significant potential to expand the current Mineral Resource

estimate by further drilling, as mineralisation remains open down dip and at depth. Regal intends to test

this potential in the Phase II drilling programme scheduled to commence in August.

The Phase II programme is planned to include 5,000m of diamond drilling and is designed to infill and

extend the existing drill coverage over the Kalongwe fragment with the aim of upgrading and expanding

the current Mineral Resource estimate. A revised resource estimate is then expected to support a detailed

Feasibility Study.

Within the current resource model there are near surface oxide zones of significant very high grade

copper (+3% Cu) and cobalt grades (+0.75% Co) which may be amenable to upgrading through a HMS

operation to produce saleable concentrates of both copper and cobalt.

During the reporting period the Company submitted a large batch of crushed drill core, representative

of the different mineralisation domains, to the Mintek laboratory, South Africa to evaluate the suitability

of mineralisation for processing by HMS.

The results of this test work are expected early in the next Quarter and additional metallurgical testwork

is expected to be undertaken during the Phase 2 programme.

During the Quarter the Company acquired from Ivanhoe Mines all of their exploration results for the

work they undertook over the area covered by the Kalongwe Permit. This includes results of grid soil

sampling over parts of the other fragments of Roan sediments that have been mapped within the permit.

The Company is in the process of reviewing this data and intends during the course of the Phase II

programme to drill test any significant anomalies that may be identified during the review process.

Transfer of Kalongwe Project Permit

During the Quarter, in compliance with Article 380 of the DRC Mining Code, the ownership of PR 12198

was transferred from La Generale Industrielle et Commerciale au Congo SPRL (“GICC”), , to Kalongwe

Mining SA (“Kalongwe Mining”, effective 17 June 2014.

The transfer of title was endorsed by CAMI (the DRC Mining Register).
