EXPLORATION
SUMMARY AND HIGHLIGHTS
By Amanda Scott, Exploration Manager Hannans holds a portfolio of mineral assets in Sweden, Norway and Australia. Its dual strategy is focused on creating a pathway to production for the Kiruna Iron Project in Sweden, supplemented with precious and other base metals exploration in Sweden, Norway and Australia. Summary Sweden & Norway Two main projects: Rakkurijoki (Iron) and Pahtohavare (Copper-Gold) are located within 6km from the Kiruna town site (a full service mining town) and the 2Bt Kiruna iron mine (owned by LKAB) the worlds largest and most modern underground iron mine. Pipeline of projects covering gold, copper-gold and lead-zinc prospects in Sweden and Norway. Australia Forrestania nickel & gold project located 7km north of Western Areas Flying Fox nickel mine.

Lake Johnston nickel & gold project located 25km south east of Norilsks Maggie Hays nickel mine and 100kms west of Norseman, Western Australia. Queen Victoria Rocks nickel and gold project located 30km south-west of Coolgardie, Western Australia. East Pilbara Project gold and base metals projects located east of Newman, Western Australia.

Highlights Sweden & Norway

Infill diamond drilling programme consisting of 19 holes (total 6,634m) was completed in September 2012 at the Rakkurijoki iron deposit, Sweden:

High grade iron mineralisation intercepted from infill drilling at Rakkurijoki iron deposit including 51m @ 46.6% Fe from 189.9m.

Positive preliminary metallurgical results received from both Altavaara and Paljasjrvi iron prospects indicating premium grade concentrates (>68% Fe) are obtainable. Exploration diamond drilling of three holes (total 653m) testing a highly prospective gold target was completed during July 2012 at the Srksjn project, Sweden.

o
Australia

Low grade gold mineralisation was intercepted in all three holes at Srksjn including 7m @ 1g/t Au from 74m.

Petrographical analysis of drill chips confirms the presence of nickel sulphides at Mt Gordon nickel prospect, Lake Johnston. Application for Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS) funding for additional drilling at the Mt Gordon nickel discovery was made during the Quarter.

PRECIOUS AND BASE METALS PROJECTS


PAHTOHAVARE

During the Quarter a new copper-gold JORC Exploration Target calculation was released for Pahtohavare. The historic Pahtohavare copper-gold mine is located 8km southwest of Kiruna, Sweden and 2km from the Companys flagship Rakkuri Iron Project. Mt Cu (%) 2.0-3.0 2.0-2.2 2.00-2.78 Au (g/t) 1.5-2.5 0.5-1.5 1.23-2.23

Fresh Oxide Total (Oxide +Fresh)

3.5-4.5 1.3-1.7 4.8-6.2

Digitisation of >300 diamond drillholes, assays and a large geochemical dataset was completed during the Quarter. Reinterpretation of historic geophysics was also completed during the Quarter and a new ground-based fixed-loop EM survey has been planned to further define a large airborne EM anomaly; the survey is scheduled to commence in early February 2013.

The JORC Exploration Target has been subjected to diamond drill testing, ground geophysics and interpretation by the Geological Survey of Sweden, reviewed by Mr Thomas Lindholm, of GeoVista AB. The potential quantity and grade of the exploration targets is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient interpretation to define a JORC Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further interpretation will result in the determination of a JORC Mineral Resource. ALTAVAARA

The Altavaara iron prospect is located in the Kiruna North Hub, 15km south of Kiruna and just 600m from the E10 highway. A 100-sample Cobra geochemistry programme was initiated in early January at Altavaara. The geochemistry programme is designed to follow-up on the shallow (<20m) high-grade copper-gold intercept made in January 2012; 3m @ 1.3% Cu, 5.2g/t Au. Geochemical results are expected in the 3rd Quarter 2013.

PROJECT PIPELINE
LAKE JOHNSTON

During the quarter, Hannans was awarded the Co-Funded Drilling Grant offered under the WA EIS. The grant is valued at up to $40,000 and covers 50% of all direct drilling costs for the proposed program. The grant was received for drilling to be conducted at the Mt Gordon nickel prospect at the Lake Johnston project. Hannans has proposed that five deep RC percussion drill holes be completed to test the basal contact of the ultramafic sequence for nickel sulphide mineralisation. Subsequent down-hole electromagnetic surveying of the holes will also be conducted under the proposed work program. A single RC hole was completed in February 2012 testing a co-incident nickel-copper auger anomaly which intercepted nickel sulphide mineralisation. Results included:

o o o o

48m @ 0.3% Ni from 16m 2m @ 0.56% Ni from 96m 16m @ 0.26% Ni from 118m 28m @ 0.28% Ni from 140m

Petrographic and geochemical studies confirmed the presence of komatiite-hosted nickel sulphide mineralisation.

NICKEL PROJECT DIVESTMENT Hannans is progressing with the divestment of its nickel and gold project portfolio in Western Australia, which includes the: Forrestania Project (east of Hyden) Lake Johnston Project (west of Norseman) Queen Victoria Rocks Project (south-west of Coolgardie) At the end of the quarter the company was in discussions with a number of groups relating to the divestment process, however no formal agreements have yet been reached in relation to any proposed transactions.
