Isibaya has three Project areas:

1. Uitvalgrond PGE-Chromite Project

This project covers part of the Eastern limb of the BushveldComplex near
Lydenburg situated 250 km north-east of Johannesburg covering both the north and
south strike extensions of the Everest South (Chromite/Platinum) mine operated
by Aquarius Platinum (AQP-ASX). Uitvalgrond has never been drilled and first
pass drilling will target both PGE and Chromite minerals associated with the
Merensky, UG2 and other Critical Zone Reefs. The Company will be in a position
to commence drilling within 30 days after closing.


2. Sondzela Gold & Base Metal Project

Situated in the Barberton Greenstone belt, this project covers a number of
prospects including the historic:




--  Three Sisters historic Gold mine which extends underground for over 1km
    and down to 15 levels with extensive remnant gold mineralization; 
--  The historic Bien Venue former Anglo American Volcanic Hosted Massive
    Sulphide (VHMS) prospect with potential for gold, silver, copper, lead
    and zinc; 
--  The historic Figaro Gold Mine with an anomaly extending over 3km strike
    length and 700m wide with potential to host gold, zinc, lead, copper and
    silver. 



3. Steinkopf Uranium Project 

This project is situated in the Northern Cape region of South Africa. The target
area is immediately adjacent to the historical Anglo American Henkries uranium
deposit and is the least explored of the acquired package but represents a
project area with high potential based on its proximity to known uranium
mineralisation.


Rock and Stock is a Geological Consulting firm who have worked extensively in
the Bushveld as well as gold and base metal projects in the region and they will
oversee the exploration activity adding their vast experience to the exploration
effort.

Harold Smith said, "The Isibaya acquisition represents a significant step for
the Company. The quality of the assets and the ability to drill untested targets
either side of the Everest South Chrome/PGE deposit is very attractive to the
Company. Joshua and his team will add significant horse power to the Company and
its ability to deliver planned work programs. Coupled with the excellent
infrastructure and mining culture of South Africa we see this project developing
over the next year into a substantial asset."
