Moonlight Iron Ore Project

As announced in the Company's quarterly report for the period ended 31 March 2012, The Mineral Corporation was commissioned by Ferrum Crescent to carry out an updated JORC compliant Mineral Resource estimate taking into account the results of the Phase 3 drilling and assays on the Moonlight deposit ("the Report"). Phase 3 consisted of 11 holes totalling 990m of diamond core drilling and 13 holes totalling 1,600m of RC drilling.

The Mineral Corporation has conducted a thorough re-interpretation of the geological structure of Moonlight, based on historical South African Iron and Steel Industrial Corporation ("Iscor") data collated and validated by Ferrum Crescent and recent exploration results. Within the constraints of a cut off grade of 16% iron, geological losses of 5% and a depth constraint of between 100m and 250m, depending upon dip and the number of mineralised zones present, the Mineral Resources at Moonlight are now estimated to be as follows:

Tonnes are rounded

Note: Ferrum Crescent is the operator and owns 81.4% of the Moonlight Project

Based on these results, the Board believes that whilst the total average Fe grade has decreased slightly (previously estimated to be a JORC compliant resource of 74Mt @ 33% Fe in the Indicated Resource category and 225Mt @ 29% Fe in the Inferred Resource category), the tonnage has increased proportionately along with a substantial increase in the confidence and classification of the Mineral Resource. Furthermore, the Board is of the opinion that the depth constraint of 250m (maximum) is conservative, particularly as the previous estimation was not constrained in this way.

The revised structural interpretation presented by The Mineral Corporation has also identified several targets south, east and west of the Moonlight Deposit, which the Company believes warrants additional exploration by the commissioning of a high-resolution airborne magnetic survey and drilling. Given that the size of resource is sufficient for in excess of 20 years, management attention is primarily focused on finding definitive answers to logistical questions rather than on continued exploration. A summary of the estimate parameters is appended.

Mining Right Application

During the quarter, the Company announced the grant of its new order mining right in respect of the Moonlight Iron Ore Project for the iron ore deposit located within the farms Moonlight, Julietta and Gouda Fontein. The Company received written confirmation from the South African Department of Mineral Resources of the grant of the new order mining right in terms of the Minerals and Petroleum Resources Development Act 28 of 2002, effective for a term of thirty years.

The grant of the Moonlight mining right represents the fulfilment of one of the principal conditions precedent to the completion of the Company's BEE transaction by completion of the "flip". The flip is the process whereby the interest of Mkhombi AmaMato (Pty) Ltd, the BEE controlled company that holds an effective 15.6% interest of the Moonlight Iron Ore Project through its indirect shareholding in Turquoise Moon Trading 157 (Pty) Ltd (holds the Moonlight Project), will effectively swap that project interest for shares in Ferrum Crescent. The other substantive conditions precedent to the completion of the flip is Ferrum Crescent shareholder approval, and the Company plans to hold a shareholders' meeting for this purpose on 8th August 2012 (please refer to the Company's Notice of General Meeting of Shareholders announcement on 6th July 2012 for further detail). Ferrum Crescent currently owns 81.4% of the Moonlight Project and at the completion of the flip, will hold an effective 97% of Moonlight, with the remaining 3% being held by a trust representing the local community that will be directly affected by Moonlight mining activities.

Aeromagnetic Survey

Following the end of the reporting period, the Company announced the completion of an aeromagnetic survey over the Julietta and Gouda Fontein farms of its Moonlight Iron Ore Project. The survey consisted of 2,827 line kilometres on 50m line spacing over an area of 129 km2 with all data currently being analysed by the Company's independent geological consultants The Mineral Corporation Consultancy (Pty) Limited. The Company, having had a close involvement in the coordination of the survey, is confident that the results of this survey will greatly assist in the planning of future exploration on the area covered by the Mining Right and in future mining operations.

The Company has announced previously that it advanced plans to implement a drilling programme on the farms Julietta and Gouda Fontein (which are covered by the granted Mining Right, along with the farm Moonlight) to increase the total resource estimate on the Moonlight Iron Ore Project. The Company has now determined, given that it has sufficient resources on the Moonlight farm to support mining for in excess of 20 years (for which the Group has an existing Mining Right and associated mining environmental approvals), that management attention is best focused at this time on obtaining definitive answers to logistical questions including rail, power, water and port services to achieve the optimal infrastructure mix for the definitive feasibility study. The Company continues to have discussions with Transnet and other infrastructure providers and industry peers to ensure that these answers are obtained as soon as possible.

In respect of the De Loskop prospect, Ferrum Crescent continues to work with local communities to enable those communities to obtain a preferential prospecting right under the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act. Upon the grant of a prospecting right, the Group would be able to "farm into" that area (up to an agreed majority percentage) by carrying out of prospecting activities. No such prospecting activities are currently planned.

Appendix I: Mineral Resource estimation details

Drilling Technique

Drilling data from Iscor and three phases of Ferrum Crescent exploration inform the estimates. The drilling comprised open hole, RC and diamond core drilling and was all vertical. A total of 122 RC holes and 89 diamond core holes were accepted for the estimates.

Sampling Technique

Limited information on the sampling techniques for the Iscor data is known. For the Ferrum Crescent exploration, industry standard sampling techniques were adopted. RC samples (1m-2m) were riffle split on site and diamond core samples were halved with a diamond saw. Primary samples and quality control samples were submitted for analysis to Genalysis Laboratory Services (Johannesburg) for analysis by Intertek Utama Services (Jakarta).

Drill Sample Recovery

Limited information on the sample recovery for the Iscor data is known. With the exception of surficial rubble, the sample recovery through the mineralised zones for the Ferrum Crescent exploration was acceptable.

Geological Logging

The Iscor data included electronic codes for the main lithological unit, certain sub-units, and the core bedding angles. All geological information during Ferrum Crescent exploration was logged in acceptable detail, and stored in an MS Access database. This included lithological, structural and geotechnical information.

Quality of Assay Data / QAQC

No information on the quality of assay data for the Iscor data was obtained. The Ferrum Crescent samples were analysed at an accredited laboratory (Genalysis / Intertek), and appropriate standards, blanks and duplicates inserted in the sample stream. The Mineral Corporation has reviewed the results from these control samples and considers the accuracy and reliability of the analyses to be acceptable.

Verification of sampling and assaying

The Iscor data was verified by means of the identification and re-surveying of borehole collars in the field, and by means of twin-drilling. On the basis of the twinning, the open-hole data from Iscor (142 holes) was considered unacceptable for Mineral Resource estimation. The remaining RC and diamond core drilling showed reasonably good correlation of mineralisation depth and abundance, and was considered acceptable.

Surveying

All Ferrum Crescent boreholes were surveyed by a registered surveyor. Of the Iscor holes, 127 collars were re-surveyed by a registered surveyor, and good correlation between the historical and Ferrum Crescent survey locations were found.

Auditing

No audits of the Iscor exploration results, with the exception of the verification described above have been undertaken. The Mineral Corporation reviewed the results of the first two phases of Ferrum Crescent's drilling prior to carrying out the estimates. Phase 3 of Ferrum Crescent's exploration was carried out by The Mineral Corporation.

Database Integrity

The compiled database for the estimates was housed in an MS Access database. In addition to the verification and QA/QC already described, validation of the sampling data for over-lapping sampling intervals, duplicate samples and spurious data was carried out.

Geological Interpretation

A thorough re-interpretation of the geological structure, and correlation between mineralised zones was carried out. Magnetite is interpreted to be hosted in four zones (Zone A to D), which have been subjected to folding, parallel to the regional (Limpopo Mobile Belt) orientation. Younger faulting, oriented parallel to and orthogonal to this trend are interpreted. The geological interpretation is considered appropriate for the level of estimates, and the Mineral Resource classification takes the confidence in the interpretation into account.

Dimensions

D Zone is approximately 200m x 400m x 30m

C Zone (West) is approximately 1400m x 250m x 35m

C Zone (East) is approximately 1100m x 700m x 30m

B Zone is approximately 1500m x 800m x 25m

A Zone is approximately 1600m x 1200m x 17m

Geological Modelling

Wireframes representing the geological interpretation were generated to constrain the block model.

Drillhole Compositing Procedures

5m vertical borehole composites were utilised, informed by an assumed minimum mining height. These composites were not at right angles to the mineralised zones, but as the dips are shallow (7° to 30° and typically less than 20°) and a 3-dimensional block model was used, the use of vertical composites is unlikely to introduce any bias.

Variography

Variograms parallel to the dip of the mineralised zones were calculated and modelled. Vertical grade distribution utilised downhole variograms. Variograms of between 150m and 250m were obtained in the plane of the mineralised zone and between 7m and 30m downhole.

Drillhole spacing

The combination of Ferrum Crescent's exploration and the KIOL data has provided an acceptable drillhole spacing which ranges from 100m x 100m to 200m x 300m.

Block Model

Horizontal block dimensions were 50m x 50m and 5m in the vertical, informed by borehole spacing and a conceptual minimum mining unit. The block model was rotated to the average dip (12°).

Grade Estimation Methodology

Ordinary Kriging was employed for grade estimates. A three stage search strategy was employed. A minimum of 5 and a maximum of 20 samples was used within the range of the variogram for the first search. The second search was twice the volume of the first, and the third extended to the limits of the mineralised zones. The search and variogram ellipse were oriented to local dip and strike variations using "Dynamic Anisotropy" in Datamine Studio v3.

Accuracy and confidence

Plan and section plots were analysed to evaluate the adherence of the estimation methodology to the geological model. The methodology was found to honour the grade continuity trends, which are assumed to be parallel to the dip of the mineralised zones.

Moisture

Tonnage was calculated on a dry basis.

Bulk Density

The Iscor data included density measurements for all diamond core holes. No information was provided on the methodology used to obtain these density data. The diamond core data from Ferrum Crescent exploration included density measurements obtained by the 'water immersion' method. A strong correlation between density and Fe was observed, and used to estimate block density after grade estimation.

Mining Factors

A minimum mining unit of 50m x 50m x 5m aided in the selection of block size. Approximate stripping ratios were calculated to inform the maximum depth constraint for the Mineral Resources.

Metallurgical Considerations

On the basis of preliminary test work, The Mineral Corporation has assumed that the Fe can be extracted by means of comminution and magnetic separation to form a magnetite concentrate.

Cut-off Parameters

A cut-off of 16% Fe and a maximum depth of between 250m and 100m depending on dip and the number of mineralised zones was applied.

Resource classification

The borehole spacing, surface mapping, structural interpretation, variography and kriging error estimates inform Mineral Resources which are classified as Inferred, Indicated and Measured. In areas of well-defined geological structure and modest grade variability, the 100m x 100m grid is sufficient for Measured Mineral Resources.

Resource Reporting

The Mineral Resource estimates have been compiled in accordance with the guidelines defined in the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (The JORC Code, 2004 Edition).
