Update on Investments

During December 2010 the Company made a C$8 million investment in Ironstone Resources Limited ("Ironstone"), a private Canadian company which owns the Clear Hills Iron Ore/Vanadium Project ("Clear Hills") in Alberta, Canada. Clear Hills currently has a resource of 203 million tonnes of iron ore at a grade of 33% designated under Canadian National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101).

Historic work (pre NI 43-101) in the 1950's estimated a resource of over 1 billion tonnes of iron ore at Clear Hills thus providing a good opportunity for Ironstone to increase its NI 43-101 resource significantly through its planned drilling campaign over the next few months. In addition Ironstone is due to extract a 20,000 tonne bulk sample as feed for a pilot plant later in the year as part of its work towards a feasibility study on Clear Hills. The project has also demonstrated significant vanadium by-product and gold assays in recent core samples suggesting the potential for further credits from those commodities.

Caledon Resources plc ("Caledon")

On 13 January 2011 Polo announced that it has agreed to subscribe for such number of new ordinary shares of Caledon at 90p per share in the second tranche of a conditional placing (the "Placing") as will result in Polo holding 29.9per cent of the enlarged issued share capital of Caledon. Closing of the Placing is conditional upon the passing of certain shareholders resolutions to be proposed at a general meeting of Caledon.

Repayment of loans of £14.5 million and AUS$4 million due from Caledon to Polo on 28 February 2011, together with associated fees, costs and interest, will be set off against the amount due from Polo to Caledon under the Placing. Polo will subscribe for 21,226,324 shares in the placing resulting in a net outlay by Polo after set off, of approximately £750,000.

Following the successful conclusion of the conditional placing, Polo will hold 83,311,521 shares in Caledon.

It is expected that the Placing will close on or about 4 February 2011.

GCM Resources plc ("GCM")

GCM continues to cement relationships with the key players within the Bangladesh Government and there is almost universal acceptance that coal has a unique role to play in meeting the country's energy requirements. Similarly, it is now accepted that open pit mining is the only feasible means of delivering the volumes of coal required in an economically, socially and environmentally acceptable way. 

The Phulbari Coal Project is the only coal project in the country that has been subject to a full social and environmental impact assessment and feasibility study and so this is the only project for which the economics and timetable to development are known with any certainty. Management believe it would take at least two years to bring one of the other potential projects in the country to this stage.

Other Investments

During the six months ending 31st December 2010, Polo made several listed and non listed investments in respect of which unaudited gains of £1.2 million were realised and £700,000 were unrealised at the period end.

Polo is continuously seeking to identify undervalued investment opportunities both for short term and long term investment in accordance with its stated investment policy.
