    EXPLORATION ANDOPERATING COSTS

    The proposed exploration expenditure of the Company is basedon certain assumptions with respect to the method and timing ofexploration and feasibility work. By their nature, these estimates andassumptions are subject to signicant uncertainties and, accordingly,

    RISK AREA RISKSFURTHERDETAILS

    CONTRACTUAL RISK

    The Company and CMPL has entered into a number of agreements,as detailed in this Prospectus. The ability of the Company to achieveits objectives will depend on the performance by the counterparties tothese agreements of their obligations. If any counterparty defaults in theperformance of their obligations, it may be necessary for the Companyto approach a court to seek a legal remedy. Legal action can be costly.Furthermore, certain contracts to which either the Company or CMPL isa party are with parties resident outside Australia and/or are governed bylaws of jurisdictions outside Australia.

    denominated in United States dollars, whereas the expenditure ofthe Company is and will be taken into account in Australian currency,exposing the Company to the uctuations and volatility of the rate ofexchange between the United States dollar and the Australian dollaras determined in international markets.

    5.1 BackgroundCape Range Limited is an Australian public company listed onthe Official List of ASX.

    As announced to ASX on 6 July 2010, the Company intends tochange the focus of its activities. This change of focus is as aconsequence of a review of the Companys telecommunicationsbusiness, which resulted in the Board forming the view that itwas desirable to re-engage the exploration and mining sectors.

    The Company has entered into the Share Sale Agreement withthe Vendors, pursuant to which the Company is to acquire100% of the issued share capital of CMPL. Please referto Section 11.1 for further details regarding the terms andconditions of the Share Sale Agreement.

    CMPL has rights to the Camarines Norte Gold Project locatedin the Camarines Norte province of the Philippines. TheCamarines Norte Gold Project consists of a number of goldprospects, totalling 2,227ha within the renowned ParacaleGoldfield area. Please refer to Sections 5.2, 7, 8 and 9 for

    further details about CMPL and its assets.

    The Company has also entered into Memoranda ofUnderstanding with the owners of two Zimbabwe explorationprojects. Please refer to Section 5.4 for further details.

    The Board has considerable expertise and experience in theexploration and mining sectors. It is hoped by the Board thatthese skills will deliver positive returns from the CamarinesNorte Gold Project.

    The Boards primary aim is to become a successful and

    profitable exploration and mining company, advancing theShareholders interests and asset values.

    The Company aims to achieve this goal through:

    (a) utilising the collective experience of the Board membersto advance the Camarines Norte Gold Project;

    (b) active exploration programmes being undertaken on theCamarines Norte Gold Project portfolio;

    (c) development of claim holdings in the Camarines NorteGold Project area; and

    (d) utilisation of the Boards resource and mining projectacquisition skills to give the Company exposure to otherexploration projects at attractive entry prices.

    5.2 Camarines Norte Gold ProjectThe Camarines Norte Gold Project (the Project) is withinthe Bicol Region of the island of Luzon in the Philippines.The Project is located approximately 300km east of thePhilippine capital of Manila, and straddles the border of the twomunicipalities (barangays) of Paracale and Jose Panganiban.

    The Project comprises a range of granted mineral concessionscovering areas of historical mine production from underground

    and alluvial excavation of narrow gold bearing vein systems,together with less advanced mineralised zones typicallyexploited by artisanal miners.

    The project is situated off the northern part of the majorPhilippine Rift Fault Leyte, which hosts a number of majorprojects to the south such as:

    Medusa Minings Co-O Gold project;

    Red 5s Siana Gold project;

    Mindoros Nickel-Cobalt project; and

    Philexs Silangan Copper-Gold project (formerly Boyongan project)

    Within the Project area, geological reports have indicatedthere are up to 39 gold bearing quartz veins. Resources havebeen quoted by previous explorers in their geological reports,however, the Company needs to carry out due diligenceon the method of resource calculations to determine if the

    resources reported are JORC compliant for reporting within Australian standards.

    Access to the Project is via concrete roads that have beenconstructed through most major towns and hence on to smalldirt or gravel roads to access the individual tenement areaswithin the Project.

    Topographically, the region is undulating and is characterisedby rolling hills and mountains. Elevation is generally lessthan 250 metres above sea level (ASL) but ranges in the

    mountainous regions up to 775 metres. Access to the Projectis more difficult during the wet season from July to November.

    Company and Project Overview

    Geology and MineralisationThe Project area consists essentially of a large trondhjemiteintrusive complex, known as the Paracale Trondhjemite,hosted within an ultramafic basement. The metamorphicbasement comprises ophiolitic lithologies, consistent with thebasement of volcanic arc complexes that have experiencedtectonic and magmatic extension through several back arcbasin processes.

    The regional NNW trending Panganiban - Malaguit shearzone separates the metamorphic basement and ParacaleTrondhjemite complex to the north from the Cretaceousand Miocene sediments and volcanics to the south. Alarge network of orthogonal NNE trending fracture systemsoccur to the north and south of the shear zone, with afew crosscutting (and perhaps offsetting) it towards thecentre. The fractures are filled with gold bearing quartz-calcite minerals and associated sulphides. It is likelythat the fractures developed during compressive stressesoccurring both synchronous with, and post emplacement

    of the trondhjemite. The faults are assumed to have beenreactivated during later tectonic activity associated withmineralisation. The regional Panganiban - Malaguit shearzone likely acted as an efficient conduit that dispersedmineralising fluids into the NNE trending fracture system.

    The mineralisation at Camarines Norte is likely related tolarge Miocene Diorite Cu-Au porphyries, an intrusive typethat is characteristic of the Philippines. Epithermal veinslocated in the Paracale Gold District are characterisedby a pinch and swell geometry. Quartz veins are banded,crustiform or open vugs and filled with base metal sulphides.The distribution of gold in the vein systems is highlyirregular, although economic concentrations occur in steeplyplunging ore shoots. If the narrow vein systems observed in the Paracale GoldDistrict are consistent with those found in Eastern Mindanao(the Pacific Cordillera), which have a similar geologicalsetting, timing and style of mineralisation and are alsolocated proximal to the Philippine Fault Zone (PFZ), thengood mineralised zones are yet to be discovered within theParacale Gold District.

    Company and Project Overview

    Exploration PotentialOf the NIBDC tenements comprising the Project, Lots 3,4 and 5 offer the greatest prospectivity. These tenementscontain either historical mines or extensive explorationhistory including trial mining and diamond drilling, andwould be described as advanced exploration areas asdefined by The Valmin Code.

    The Lot 3 area contains twoextensive veins; Virginia Southand Pasacao South. Some historical details of drillingconducted in the area suggest intercepts in the northernpart of up to 10g/t Au; however it is difficult to verify thespatial accuracy of this data.

    of which being the Paracale Nacional and Tumbaga Consolidatedoperations situated in Lot 4 of the NIBDC tenure. The ParacaleNacional operation is reported to have shipped a total of 22,500tons at 13.4 g/t Au for milling at North Camarines MiningCustoms Mill during the period 1939 to 1940.

    The Project areas have been variously worked by artisanalminers from local villages who have developed a range ofshallow shafts, test pits, and small scale workings duringexploitation and treatment of the numerous vein structures. Anumber of generations of surface mapping, rock chip sampling,surface mapping and geophysics have been conducted across arange of tenements with results generally only available as hardcopy plans. These plans are sometimes available as professionaldrafted maps; however are generally hand sketched and

    annotated records providing indications of key features.

    Project TenementsThe tenements which make up the Project cover an area of2,227 hectares and are comprised of two separate sets ofclaims, being;

    Mineral Production Sharing Agreement Application(APSA) 000322-V Currently held by Northern IslandBuilders and Development Corporation (NIBDC); and

    Exploration Permit Application (EXPA) 000061-V -Currently held by Guidance Management Corporation(GMC).

    Details of the individual tenements comprising theseapplications are listed in Table 1 below.

    Within Lot 4 the Manila and Vallejo veins in the ParacaleNacional area show exploration and resource potentialin this tenure, while the Tumbaga and San Rafael veinsin the north west of the tenement have hosted historicaloperations. The company intends to investigate thepotential to acquire the strip of land between Lots 3and 4, as it is likely that the mineralisation seem in theTumbaga and San Rafael veins within Lot 4 extend into

    this strip.

    The lithostratigraphic associations and structuralelements present in the Lot 5 tenement suggest this areacould be a significant exploration target. The geologicalenvironment is particularly amenable to mineralisationconsidering that historically, the north east trending veinsystems within the Trondhjemite are the dominant goldmineralisation host in the region.

    The most prospective of the GMC tenement group is GMC1, with four separate veins identified on the tenement, andhistorical mines nearby. Previous work appears to havetargeted an unidentified structure, with the trend ofsamples taken appearing to run parallel to Tabas 1and Tabas 3 veins, possibly representing a repetition ofthese veins. The presence of the large regional shear isalso promising as a source for fluid interaction. Basedon the sampling conducted across this area, and theidentification of what could potentially be a previouslyunmapped mineralised structure, the area could bedescribed as an advanced exploration area.

    The remainder of the tenements across both parcels havefar less historical work completed across them and wouldbe considered exploration areas under The ValminCode. Preliminary geological investigation in the form ofmapping and basic sampling of identifiable structures willbe conducted to assess the potential of these relatively

    unexplored areas, although in some instances the smallsize of the tenement will negate the potential somewhat.

    Conclusions/SummaryThe Paracale Goldfield commenced production priorto World War II in 1935 and produced a total of583,971 tonnes at an average grade of 11.83g/t gold(approximately 240,000 ounces). Historical productionrecords indicate that during the period of 1938 to1941, the Paracale group of mines produced another1,890,000 tonnes at an average grade of 12g/t gold

    (approximately 800,000 ounces). Records do not showof any further production since post World War II over theProject area, apart from small scale alluvial miners.

    Within the project area, there are numerous gold bearingquartz veins that require further geological test works. Forexample, according to previous exploration reports, at theTumbaga Vein, 62 rock chip samples were tested for goldmineralisation. Of the 62 samples, 23 assayed above 3g/tgold and they averaged 7.4g/t gold. The samples weretaken from a quartz vein which had an average widthof 1.34m. These sorts of grades and widths are quitenormal in this part of the world, as most of these sorts ofveins are typically less than 3 metres wide.

    A detailed and systematic exploration program has beenplanned for the Project with the aim of establishing aJORC resource. This program includes accurate surfacemapping and targeted surface sampling, supported bystrategic drilling and sampling. The collection of bulksamples in order to gain increased confidence in gold

    grade estimates given the highly variable distribution ofgold within this style of mineralisation will be undertaken.

    Given the previous gold production and the existence ofa number of quartz vein reefs within the Project area,the Project demonstrates potential to define economicconcentrations of mineralisation. The use of modern,systematic exploration techniques should allow thegeneration of such exploration targets. Please refer to Section 7 for further details.

    Proposed expenditure for the Project is set out in Section 5.3.

    Company and Project Overview 5.3 Exploration Expenditure SummaryThe Company proposes to fund its intended exploration

    programmes in relation to the Project from the proceedsof the Offer.

    It should be noted that the budgets will be subject to

    modification on an ongoing basis, depending on the resultsobtained from completed exploration programmes.

    Exploration involves an ongoing assessment of each of

    the project areas and may lead to increased or decreasedlevels of expenditure on certain areas reflecting a change

    in emphasis. This is certainly true of the year twoexpenditures, which are dependent on the outcomesfrom the year one programmes. The following expenditure

    summary is proposed:

    5.4 Other ProjectsShareholders and potential investors will note that:

    (a) on 7 October 2010, the Company announced it hadentered into a memorandum of understanding toacquire up to a 75% interest in the DomboshawaHill Lithium Project with Willaway Enterprises(Private) Limited (Domboshawa Hill Option). Detailsof the Domboshawa Hill Option can be found inSection 11.6 of this Prospectus and the Companysannouncements; and

    (b) on 10 November 2010, the Company announced ithad entered into a memorandum of understanding

    to acquire up to a 100% interest in the Snakes HeadPlatinum Project with Willaway Enterprises (Private)

    Limited (Snakes Head Option). Details of the SnakesHead Option can be found in Section 11.7 of thisProspectus and the Companys announcements.

    As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company confirmsthat it is still undertaking due diligence in relation to theDomboshawa Hill Option and Snakes Head Option and doesnot expect to complete the due diligence before completion ofthe re-compliance process (that is, prior to being reinstated totrading on the ASX).

    To that end, in the event that the Company decides to pursueits rights to acquire an interest in either project the fundsraised from the Offer will not be used to fund the acquisitions

    themselves (as opposed to the exclusivity fee and the duediligence costs).

    Company and Project Overview The Directors give no assurance that either theDomboshawa Hill Option or Snakes Head Options willbe exercised and accordingly the rights to the assetsunderlying those options may or may not be acquired.

    Set out as follows is technical information regarding theDomboshawa Hill Lithium Project and the Snakes HillPlatinum Project.

    5.4.1 Domboshawa Hill Lithium ProjectThe Domboshawa Hill Lithium Project area is located just north of a well known lithium mining province, withinthe Harare-Bindura-Shawa Greenstone Belt. The projectcomprises the prospect EPO 13/10 (EPO), covering19,995 hectares in area.

    Within the EPO there are some outcrops for pegmatitesand old claims for monazite, a rare earth mineral which

    is usually associated with lithium. Some of the past oldworkings have been worked for pegmatite minerals in thearea. For example, the Casa Ventura mine between 1957and 1981 produced 606t of lepidolite (lithium bearingmica) and the Mistress Mine produced 1,677t of lepidoliteand 80t of spodumene (lithium silicate).

    The EPO area is covered mainly by granitic and gneissicrocks. These granite-gneissic rocks are intruded bypegmatites which host mineralisation of the lithium

    minerals and other minerals.

    5.4.2 Snakes Head Platinum ProjectThe Snakes Head Project area is located 150km north ofHarare, at the north end of the Great Dyke in Zimbabwe.

    In the past, the Great Dyke has been explored for platinum

    by resource majors such as Union Carbide Ltd (Wedza-

    Mimosa, Selous, Snakes Head projects), Anglo-American

    Ltd (Unki project) and Rio Tinto Ltd(Zinca project).

    The project comprises 79 prospect licences, covering

    approximately 2,000 hectares. The Project area is located

    along strike from the well known Zimplats Hartley Platinum

    project (formerly held by the Delta Gold BHP Joint Venture).

    During 1991 - 1992 Cluff Resources (Pvt) Ltd carried out

    exploratory work over the area including diamond drill

    holes. The exploration work by Cluff Resources delineated

    a reasonable geological continuity that outlined two steep

    to flat dipping platinum-palladium bearing sulphide zones

    over a 7km strike, with a 4km maximum width.

    5.5 Competent PersonThe information in this Prospectus that relates to exploration

    results, mineral resources or ore reserves of the Projects

    owned by CMPL is based on information compiled by

    Mr Joe Cornelius, who is a member of the Australasian

    INDEPENDENT GEOLOGISTS REPORT ON THEMINERAL EXPLORATION PROPERTIES OF CAPE RANGE LTD

    10 June 2011

    Joe Cornelius

    Managing Director

    Cape Range Ltd

    Unit 5, 324 Great Eastern Highway

    Ascot WA 6104

    Dear Joe,

    BM Geological Services Perth Pty Ltd (BMGS) has

    been commissioned by Cape Range Limited (CRL)

    to provide an Independent Geologists Report (IGR)

    on the Camarines Norte Project (the Project) in the

    Bicol Region of the island of Luzon in the Philippines.

    The Project is located approximately 300km east of the

    Philippine capital of Manila, and straddles the border

    of the two municipalities (barangays) of Paracale and

    Jose Panganiban. The report is to be included in aProspectus to be lodged with the Australian Securities

    and Investments Commission (ASIC), offering for

    subscription 25,000,000 shares at an issue price of 20c

    per Share (the Prospectus), to raise up to $5,000,000

    (plus oversubscriptions of up to a further $1,000,000).

    The minimum amount to be raised has been set at

    $4,000,000 for this Prospectus.

    BMGS has based its review of the Project on information

    provided by CRL, along with information obtained from

    government agencies, previous owners, and other

    relevant published and unpublished data. A site visit was

    not conducted to the Project by the author, Mr Daniel

    Saunders as Mr Darryl Mapleson, a current employee

    of BMGS, had visited the project area in February 2009.

    The Project comprises a range of granted mineralconcessions covering areas of historical mine production

    from underground and alluvial excavation of narrow

    gold bearing vein systems, together with less advanced

    mineralised zones typically exploited by artisanal miners.

    BMGS understands from CRL that the legal status of the

    assets in which CRL are acquiring an interest, and the

    mining and minerals processing legislation applicable

    has been assessed separately during legal due diligenceinvestigations and consideration of these items has not

    been included in this report. The present status of the

    tenements, agreements and legislation described in this

    report is based on information provided by CRL. BMGS is

    not qualified to comment on the nature of the transaction

    between the current Owners and CRL and is therefore not

    considered in this IGR.

    Independent Geologist's Report I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. Introduction BM Geological Services Perth Pty Ltd (BMGS) has beencommissioned by Cape Range Limited (CRL) to provide an

    Independent Geologists Report (IGR) on the CamarinesNorte Project (the Project) in the Bicol Region of the

    island of Luzon in the Philippines. The Project is locatedapproximately 300km east of the Philippine capital of

    Manila, and straddles the border of the two municipalities(barangays) of Paracale and Jose Panganiban. The reportis to be included in a Prospectus to be lodged with

    the Australian Securities and Investments Commission(ASIC), offering for subscription 25,000,000 shares at

    an issue price of 20c per Share (the Prospectus), toraise up to $5,000,000 (plus oversubscriptions of up to afurther $1,000,000). The minimum amount to be raised

    has been set at $4,000,000 for this Prospectus.

    It comprises a number of prospects which are at varyingstages of exploration maturity. The tenure of the Project

    has not been independently verified by BMGS and thereport has been prepared on the assumption that thetenements will prove lawfully accessible. The tenements

    are comprised of two parcels; the NIBDC package whichcontains six tenements, and the GMC package which

    contains three.

    CRL have advised BMGS that through legal due diligencethey have confirmed the Owners have the legal right to putforward the mineral tenements for purchase. This advice

    has not been independently verified by BMGS and will notbe covered in this report. BMGS are not privileged to the

    nature of any transactions being discussed between thecurrent Owners and CRL regarding the purchase of the

    tenements.

    B. Geology and Mineralisation

    The Project area consists essentially of a large trondhjemite

    intrusive complex, known as the Paracale Trondhjemite,hosted within an ultramafic basement. The metamorphic

    basement comprises ophiolitic lithologies, consistentwith the basement of volcanic arc complexes that have

    experienced tectonic and magmatic extension throughseveral back arc basin processes.

    The regional NNW trending Panganiban - Malaguit shearzone separates the metamorphic basement and Paracale

    Trondhjemite complex to the north from the Cretaceousand Miocene sediments and volcanics to the south. A

    large network of orthogonal NNE trending fracture systemsoccur to the north and south of the shear zone, with afew crosscutting (and perhaps offsetting) it towards the

    centre. The fractures are filled with gold bearing quartz-

    calcite minerals and associated sulphides. It is likely thatthe fractures developed during compressive stressesoccurring both synchronous with, and post emplacement

    of the trondhjemite. The faults are assumed to have beenreactivated during later tectonic activity associated withmineralisation. The regional Panganiban Malaguit shear

    zone likely acted as an efficient conduit that dispersedmineralising fluids into the NNE trending fracture system.

    The mineralisation at Camarines Norte is likely related to

    large Miocene Diorite Cu-Au porphyries, an intrusive typethat is characteristic of the Philippines. Epithermal veinslocated in the Paracale Gold District are characterised

    by a pinch and swell geometry. Quartz veins are banded,crustiform or open vugs and filled with base metal

    sulphides. The distribution of gold in the vein systems ishighly irregular, although economic concentrations occur

    in steeply plunging ore shoots.

    The lithostratigraphic associations and structural

    elements present in the Lot 5 tenement suggest this areacould be a significant exploration target. The geological

    environment is particularly amenable to mineralisationconsidering that historically, the north east trending vein

    systems within the Trondhjemite are the dominant goldmineralisation host in the region.

    The most prospective of the GMC tenement group is GMC1, with four separate veins identified on the tenement,

    and historical mines nearby. Previous work appears tohave targeted an unidentified structure, with the trend

    of samples taken appearing to run parallel to Tabas 1and Tabas 3 veins, possibly representing a repetition ofthese veins. The presence of the large regional shear is

    also promising as a source for fluid interaction. Basedon the sampling conducted across this area, and the

    identification of what could potentially be a previouslyunmapped mineralised structure, the area could be

    described as an advanced exploration area.

    The remainder of the tenements across both parcels havefar less historical work completed across them and wouldbe considered exploration areas under The Valmin Code.

    Preliminary geological investigation in the form of mappingand basic sampling of identifiable structures should be

    conducted to assess the potential of these relatively

    unexplored areas, although in some instances the smallsize of the tenement will negate the potential somewhat.

    F. Conclusions

    Given the lack of certainty regarding the position of thefeatures identified from the various hard copy plans

    (i.e. trench locations, rock chip locations etc), and thecommon and sometimes significant errors that can be

    introduced in trying to convert this information to digitaldata, there is limited spatial confidence in the displayed

    locations of these various features.

    Together with this spatial uncertainty, there is some

    question over the representativeness of the samplescollected and subsequently reported. This is due to a

    lack of available detail on the method used to collect thesample, a geological description of the zone sampled, and

    the analytical method used to report the results. Anecdotalevidence suggests that the sampling of the vein materialwas generally not constrained just to the mineralised zone,

    and may have included peripheral material considereduneconomic. If this is the case it may be that the reported

    grades from some of these samples are underestimatingthe true grades of the mineralised zones.

    Despite this, it is considered that the Project demonstratessome potential to define economic concentrations of

    mineralisation based on the historical production andgrades achieved. The use of modern, systematic exploration

    techniques, together with accurate identification and

    mapping of the vein structures should allow the generationof exploration targets for subsequent investigation.

    II. BACKGROUND A. Project Location The Project is located in the Province of Camarines Norte,in the Bicol Region of the island of Luzon, Philippines(Figure 1) and is located approximately 300km east of thePhilippine capital of Manila, and straddles the border of thetwo municipalities Paracale and Jose Panganiban.

    Access to the Project is via concrete roads that have beenconstructed through most major towns and hence on tosmall dirt or gravel roads to access the individual tenementareas within the Project.

    Topographically, the region is undulating and ischaracterised by rolling hills and mountains. Elevationis generally less than 250 metres above sea level (ASL)but ranges in the mountainous regions up to 775 metres. Access to the Project is more difficult during the wetseason from July to November.

    Independent Geologist's Report B. Project Tenements The tenements which make up the Project cover an areaof 2,227 hectares and are comprised of two separate setsof claims, being;

    Mineral Production Sharing Agreement Application(APSA) 000322-V - Currently held by Northern IslandBuilders and Development Corporation (NIBDC); and

    Exploration Permit Application (EXPA) 000061-V - Currently held by Guidance ManagementCorporation (GMC).

    Details of the individual tenements comprising theseapplications are listed in Table 1 and displayed in Figure2. No specific investigations have been made into thecurrent status of the tenements listed, nor in determiningthe legal ownership or relationship of either NIBDC or GMCto the tenements as claimed, other than review of thetenement applications against records publically available

    from the Mines and Geosciences Bureau, Department ofEnvironment and Natural Resources, Philippines (includeas reference).
