Forward-Looking Statements: This presentation contains forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or
developments that the Company believes, expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future (including, without limitation, statements relating to exploration results, potential
mineral resources, potential mineralization and the Company's plans with respect to the exploration of its Oman properties) are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements reflect the current expectations or beliefs of the Company based on information currently available to the Company. Forward-looking statements are subject to a
number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results of the Company to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and even if such
actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on the Company. Factors that could
cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, the possibility that future exploration results will not be consistent with the
Company's expectations, uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future, changes in equity markets, changes in commodity prices, foreign
currency fluctuations, political developments in Oman, changes to regulations affecting the Company's activities, delays in obtaining or failure to obtain required project approvals,
the uncertainties involved in interpreting geological data and the other risks involved in the resource exploration business. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the
date on which it is made and, except as may be required by applicable securities laws, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statement,
whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise. Although the Company believes that the assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are
reasonable, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on such information due to the inherent
uncertainty therein.
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") permits mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a
company can economically and legally extract or produce. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any disclosure of mineralization contained in this presentation is

  • 3. Disclaimer Forward-Looking Statements: This presentation contains forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or developments that the Company believes, expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future (including, without limitation, statements relating to exploration results, potential mineral resources, potential mineralization and the Company's plans with respect to the exploration of its Oman properties) are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect the current expectations or beliefs of the Company based on information currently available to the Company. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results of the Company to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and even if such actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on the Company. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, the possibility that future exploration results will not be consistent with the Company's expectations, uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future, changes in equity markets, changes in commodity prices, foreign currency fluctuations, political developments in Oman, changes to regulations affecting the Company's activities, delays in obtaining or failure to obtain required project approvals, the uncertainties involved in interpreting geological data and the other risks involved in the resource exploration business. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except as may be required by applicable securities laws, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise. Although the Company believes that the assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on such information due to the inherent uncertainty therein. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") permits mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any disclosure of mineralization contained in this presentation is economically or legally mineable. U.S. investors are urged to closely consider all of the disclosures in the Company's reports filed pursuant to the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which may be secured from the Company, or from the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov/edgar.html.

  1. The Semail Ophiolite Belt in Oman is 600km long and between 100-150km wide. The belt represents an obducted portion of sea floor – a section of the ancient sea floor which has been lifted onto the Continental surface during orogenic movements. The ophiolite represents a large thickness of sea floor – some 8-12km of upper mantle peridotites and 4-7km of oceanic crustal rocks. Although the ophiolite appears to be one sheet there are actually several structural blocks observed. VMS style mineralisation is associated with the upper portions of the Ophiolite – in a 2.0-2.5km package of pillow basalts and manganiferous sea floor sediments. The Semail Ophiolite has been a source of copper since the Bronze Age providing metal for the Mesopotanian civilisations. Between 1970 & 1990 the belt was subjected to intensive multinational regional exploration resulting in the discovery of 44Mt or 1-2% copper, principally in 3 areas: Lasail, Ghuzayn and Aarja. A total of 25 major prospects were identified of which the Omani Government mined 3 - Bayda, Lasail & Aarja. The government built a 1Mtpa copper concentrator, smelter and refinery complex at Lasail. In the early 2000’s a private company, ironically named the National Mining Company (NMC), discovered 3 new deposits and commenced mining in 2006
