Project and Strategy Overview

Growth by Acquisition

• The Company will develop a pipeline of new projects to underwrite its growth as an ASX listed mining company,

• Management have been continuously assessing new acquisition opportunities with the objective of enhancing the

Company’s current portfolio of projects; these projects must be either advanced in terms of permitting and resource

definition or have the potential to develop into large, long lead time operations

• The Company’s new cornerstone BEE partner, Thebe Investment Corporation significantly adds to our in-country

presence and boosts the chances of us finding the right acquisition

• Thebe will be represented on the boards of Xceed and the Moabsvelden operating company and Xceed will be their

largest resource investment to date. For
