Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Report

HIGHLIGHTS

Broken Hill Joint Ventures
- Detailed surface mapping carried out at Goldfinger and integrated with drill hole data and 3-D gravity modelling. Commencement of a follow-up 500 metre diamond drill hole is imminent.
- Follow-up RAB drilling on the Avondale prospect completed to test for Ni, Pt and PGMs. No significant anomalism in these metals was encountered.
- Refinements to the 3-D gravity modelling at the Tip suggest the need for a deep diamond drill hole to test the main body of the anomalous source. Arrangements for drilling are still to be finalised.
- Geological field reconnaissance has been completed at Yanco Glen and a drilling programme to test the Falcon™ target has been designed.
Ellendale-Blina (Kimberley Diamond Company)

Persistent and continuing wet conditions precluded any field exploration activity in the period. Follow-up drilling and bulk sampling of targets will commence in August 2004.
Ealbara (100% Gravity Capital)

Initial drilling carried out on three of the targets identified from the Falcon™ survey. Assays are awaited.

Fourth Quarter Activities Report

HIGHLIGHTS

Senegal - Work on the development of the Grande Côte Zircon Project continued to gain momentum during the quarter. The metallurgical testing on the 45 tonne bulk sample is largely complete and the preliminary results are encouraging. Drilling and other support equipment have started to arrive on site and other ancillaries, including buildings, necessary to support the feasibility study investigations are being established.
India - MDL dismantled the floating concentrator at the Fullerton mine in the March quarter and the equipment is now on site in India awaiting installation in the new facility, which is close to being completed. Once MDL/Beach Mining Company have reassembled the relocated plant and equipment, the objective will be to enhance the quality and maximise the output of ilmenite as quickly as possible.
Australia - Restoration and rehabilitation work continued on the Fullerton dredge site and the Viney Creek dredges and dry mill continued to be maintained under a comprehensive care and maintenance programme prior to their planned relocation to Senegal early in 2005.
Corporate - The company lodged a full complying bid for the Sabodala Gold Project in Senegal in early June 2004. Results of this tender were expected by the end of June but, as yet, have not been released by the Senegalese Government. In order to clarify and promote the reception of the tender documents, visits were made by MDL's executive management to Senegal during the quarter. The company will release the outcome of the tender as soon as it is known.

MITHRIL

Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Reports

HIGHLIGHTS

1. CORPORATE

Cash reserves of $6,382,773 at June 30 2004, taking into consideration joint venture receivables and outstanding creditors.
$2,165,666 (net) raised through the issue of 5,702,500 fully paid shares in the capital of the Company at a price of $0.40 per share.
Capital raising activated certain rights that form part of the Alliance Agreement with BHP Billiton Minerals Pty Ltd. Under the terms activated, BHP Billiton may not fund any third party to generate nickel sulphide exploration projects throughout Australia without the consent of Mithril.

2. EXPLORATIONTalia Hill Joint Venture South Australia (Mithril currently 100%, BHPB earning up to 82%)

Fourteen reverse circulation drill holes for a total of 934 metres were completed. Anomalous nickel intersections up to a maximum of 4000 ppm were recorded in the drilling. Nickel occurs in a moderately weathered ultramafic rock and is associated with weak Cu, Co, As, Pt, Pd and Au anomalism suggesting proximity to primary nickel sulphide mineralisation. Further work is required to locate the source of the anomalism.

Cooper Hill Joint Venture South Australia (Mithril currently 100%, BHPB earning up to 79%)
A total of 22 aircore holes totalling 641m and one diamond hole (193 metres) were drilled on the project. Six aircore holes intersected undeformed weathered mafic and/or ultramafic intrusive rocks and four of these were anomalous in Ni-Cu-Pt-Pd-Au (Ni to 1750ppm, Cu to 330ppm, Pt to 115ppb, Pd to 174ppb, Au to 270ppb).

Parker Range Western Australia (Mithril 100%)

666 surface geochemical samples were collected on an 800 by 200 metre grid covering a coincident magnetic and gravity anomaly. Results of the geochemical survey have delineated a number of coincident nickel-copper anomalies (up to 3 kilometres by 800 metres) localized on the margin of a mafic intrusive rock.

SMC GOLD

Fourth Quarter Report

The completion of the Chile acquisitions represent a major milestone in our corporate strategy. In addition the Directors are very pleased with the recent capital raising. Operational work in Chile is progressing in line with expectations and early drilling results have intercepted encouraging high-grade gold values.

Globally prospects for copper miners are very strong. Specifically, consumption estimates for China indicate good long term support for the copper price. In addition, the low cost of production (approximately USD$163 cash costs) leave the Directors confident that the company's expectations for the Chile project will be achieved.

CHILE SUMMARY

SMC acquired 100% of Chilean gold and copper mining company, Compania Minera Tamaya ("CMT"), on 24th July 2004. The company was able to complete the acquisition on significantly enhanced terms.
Secured option to acquire the Dalmacia project (located 6km from the CMT Punitaqui site) for US$1m payable over 18 months.
Cinabrio copper mine purchased for US$1.3m payable on terms over 30 months
Positive first drilling results from Punitaqui released to the market. These first results are better than the average resource grades used in modelling
Milling production start-up almost immediate with concentrate produced in July.

TASGOLD

Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Report

Highlights from the quarter include:

The only hole drilled at the Wart Hill Prospect (last hole drilled during the ‘Summer' field season) intersected potentially economic, high-grade, and high-value, base and precious metals. The intercept of 3.9m of 12.6% Zinc + 7.2% Lead + 123g/t Silver + 0.6g/t Gold is the best ever drilled at the Southern Mount Read Volcanic Project (SMRV) and known in the entire Mt Read volcanics to the south of the World Class Mt Lyell Mine. This resoundingly demonstrates the excellent potential of TasGold's SMRV project and the company's decision to diversify and explore for base metals in addition to gold.

Significant gold mineralisation (5.18 g/t Au over a 1m width) indicative of possible hybrid epithermal - VHMS Henty style gold style was intersected at depth in the same hole at Wart Hill.

The Pleiades (V30) Prospect drilled for the first time ever and returned 3m of 1.00g/t Au + 2.00%Zn + 0.67% Pb, from 37 to 40m downhole, with strong silica-sericite alteration and intense shearing showing many similarities to the Henty Gold deposits of the northern Mount Read Volcanics. A wide gold zone was intersected at Sassy Creek which included a 94.4m interval (entire sampled interval) of geochemically anomalous (0.09 g/t Au) mineralisation. Further work is warranted.

An excellent arrangement was negotiated with Toronto Venture Stock Exchange (TSX) listed Fraserfund Financial Corp. on 10 of TasGold's Exploration License Applications (ELAs) in Papua New Guinea (PNG), covering a total of ~11,000 km2.

Fraser will provide 15% free carried interests on all 10 ELAs and issue 3,000,000 fully paid ordinary Fraserfund shares to TasGold (certain provisions apply). If issued today, these shares would equate to ~33% of Fraser's present share capital. TasGold's Managing Director has been appointed the CEO /President /Director of Fraserfund. Fraser has assumed all financial responsibility with these 10 ELAs until mine construction on any specific ML/SML. A 15% free carried interest on a major mining project would have substantial fiscal benefit to TasGold.

TasGold has joined with Malachite Resources NL to Farm-In to BHP Billiton's Mt Ramsay Project in Tasmania. Mt Ramsay is believed to be highly prospective for major tin deposits like those at the nearby Renison Bell tin mine. The tenement covers two newly recognised groups of attractive EM anomalies located within the well mineralised rock sequences of western Tasmania.

A non- renouncable rights issue to shareholders is in progress, the record date was 22 July 2004 and the issue will close on 12 August 2004. It is on the basis of an allotment of 2 shares for every 3 shares held, at 16 cents, with one free option accompanying each New Share allotted, to raise up to a maximum of approximately $4 million.

The funds raised by the Issue will be used to advance exploration at the Company's Tasmanian Projects; in particular the SMRV Project, to commence exploration on those Papua New Guinea properties which are not being funded by third parties and for working capital.

QUARTERLY REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

¨               Restructure and Dual Listing of Equinox - TSX/ASX

During the quarter the restructure of Equinox Resources Limited and the application of Equinox Minerals Limited for listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), in addition to the Australian Stock Exchange (“ASX”), was approved by shareholders on 15 June 2004.

The dual TSX and ASX listing of Equinox Minerals Limited was completed on 29 June 2004 and shares now trade under the symbol “EQN” on both exchanges. The Canadian listing of Equinox will enhance the Company’s ability to access the global capital markets, facilitating the financing and development of the Lumwana Project in Zambia.

On 8 July 2004, Equinox successfully closed its Canadian initial public offering to raise C$15.62 million (A$16.50 million). These funds will be used to acquire the remaining interest in the Lumwana Project, progress the Project towards development, and conduct exploration programs in Zambia, Peru and Australia.

¨               Lumwana Project

Following the successful listing and capital raising on the TSX, Equinox plans to purchase the 49% interest held by Phelps Dodge in the Lumwana Project - Large Scale Mining Lease (“LML-49”). This will mean that Equinox will hold 100% of the Lumwana Project. The documentation to transfer the interest to Equinox in accordance with the signed Letter of Intent with Phelps Dodge is currently being prepared. It is expected that this procedure will be completed within the next two months.

Equinox is now focusing on the project financing effort, which may include restructuring the Lumwana Joint Venture, with the objective of achieving finance completion and commencement of development by the second half of 2005.

¨               Lumwana Exploration

Exploration to test five priority targets within a 15 km radius of the Lumwana process plant commenced during the quarter. These targets are considered to have good potential for containing open pittable copper sulphide mineralization. Drill programs will be used to test the high priority Malundwe South and Chimiwungo North prospects and an induced polarisation (IP) survey will be completed to test the Chimiwungo SW, Lubwe and possibly the Kamaranda prospects. Follow-up drilling is scheduled for the third and fourth quarters.

¨               Murrin South Nickel Project (Equinox – Samson Joint Venture)

The Equinox – Samson Joint Venture holds the nickel sulphide rights to a number of Minara Resources Limited tenements in the Murrin Murrin area, on which Minara has defined a lateritic nickel resource. Geophysical surveys have been conducted and drill testing of targets will occur in the September quarter.

¨               Cowan Nickel Joint Venture (Equinox – Bullion Joint Venture)

Equinox entered into a joint venture agreement with Bullion Minerals Ltd to undertake nickel sulphide exploration of Bullion’s extensive 650 km? tenement holdings in the Widgiemooltha-Higginsville Region of the Eastern Goldfields, Western Australia. A detailed data compilation and interpretation with follow up ground evaluation has been completed, and groundwork in preparation for EM surveys will commence in the September quarter.

¨               Peru (Alturas Minerals SRL)

Equinox holds a 70% interest in a Peruvian entity, Alturas Minerals SRL, which is carrying out gold exploration activities in Peru. A generative program is underway and Alturas has a number of claims either granted or as applications. Several target regions have been identified during this quarter and detailed reconnaissance work has begun on some of these targets.

The last few days have been occupied by the installation of a diesel fuel re-cycling system to assist in cleaning the hole without losing the diesel to the flare pit. There was a volume of proppant left in the hole after the first frac that required removal before the temporary plug can be set and the second frac can be initiated. Current planning predicts the second frac to be started early next week. It is still too early to make a prediction of the relative success or failure of the overall programme. - Web Site

USA Operations

During the quarter ended June 30 2004 Icon Energy Limited's (Icon) wholly owned subsidiary Icon US LLC concluded and agreement with CLK Energy Inc (CLK) effective June 30 2004. Under this agreement CLK has committed to a comprehensive work over programme, a new well drilling development programme and a cash and production payment to Icon Oil US LLC and Bligh PNG Limited (Bligh) with a total value of $A11.0 million. Icon has received a cash Payment of $A920,000 and further production payments of $A2.2 million will be paid to Icon Oil US LLC and Bligh under an agreed formula.
Icon's interests in the leases will be as follows:-

Victory Financial North Lease	38.5%
Victory Financial South Lease	19.0%
Wilberts Leases	14.0%

CLK expects to commence a work over drilling programme in August subject to approvals of the relevant authorities. A total of five existing wells will be re-completed in the initial phase of the drilling programme. Icon and Bligh will be fully carried through this programme.

Deeper new wells to intersect the proven oil and gas reserves will not commence before the 3D seismic data has been reprocessed and this has already commenced. CLK is committed by contract to drill the first deep well before the end of the year subject to the completion and interpretation of the newly reprocessed seismic data.
CLK has operated for over 25 years in the Gulf Coast of the USA and is headquartered in New Orleans Louisiana. This experience brings to the operation a skilled team of professionals in the area and augers well for the success of the new development.

Australian Operations.

In Australia Enterprise Energy Limited now expects to commence the Nulla Nulla #1 well in ATP 549P in the Cooper Eromanga Basin near the South Australian border at the beginning of September. This well has multiple objectives in the Jurassic, Triassic and Permian sections. Further announcements will be made when the drilling rig is on location. Nulla Nulla #1 is located on one of the larger undrilled closed structures in the basin and could hold up to 30 million barrels of recoverable oil.

The Right to Negotiate group process which has been underway for two years is now awaiting final approval of the Native Title Claimants. Once signed ATP 589P will be renewed by the Department of Natural Resources in Queensland and allow evaluation work to commence on the Springfiled Gas Field.

Icon's other permits in Queensland are now moving forward to reach an agreement under an Indigenous Land Use Agreement (ILUA) and this process should be completed before the end of 2004. This should allow Icon's major investment in Queensland to become active again.

Offshore Western Australia, a new high definition seismic survey is in the planning stages. No date has yet been established for the commencement of operations.

Alumina First Half NPAT Up 41% –
AWAC studying 4m tonne expansion

Highlights:
• Net profit after tax $168m – up 41%
• NPAT less specialty chemical sale $153m – up 29%
• Fully franked dividend steady at 10 cents per share
• Production 7 per cent higher than FH2003
• The 250,000 tonne Suriname expansion and 600,000 tonne Pinjarra upgrade, meeting or surpassing milestones
• Opportunity to expand AWAC’s global alumina refining by over 4.0 million tonnes

Alumina Limited today announced a significantly higher profit for the half year driven by higher prices and increased AWAC production of alumina, offset by higher A$ exchange rates.
Alumina Limited’s share of Alcoa World Alumina and Chemicals (AWAC) equity profit after tax, excluding the Specialty Chemical profit, was $153 million, an increase of 29 per cent over the previous half.
Including the Speciality Chemical sale after tax profit of $168 million, was 41 per cent higher.
Directors declared a fully franked interim dividend of 10 cents a share. This is consistent with our intent to distribute 100% of the fully franked dividends received from Alcoa of Australia to Alumina Limited shareholders, to the extent practicable.
Aluminium prices continued to strengthen, with LME prices averaging US76¢ a pound (US67¢ in the previous half), yielding higher alumina realised prices for AWAC. Partially offsetting the higher prices was a stronger Australian dollar, which averaged US74¢ in the first half (US69¢ in the previous half). - Web Site

ONSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN

PEP 155 - Onshore, Victoria
(Lakes Oil Group, Operator: 100 percent interest)

Work continued on locating a scout hole in the Marlo area to test the hypothesis that oil, which is known to be spilling from offshore fields, has migrated to the Marlo area. There are anecdotal reports of oil and gas shows in a water bore at Marlo. The recently flown Falcon airborne gravity gradiometer and magnetics survey has been interpreted. This work indicates a half graben with increased sedimentary section in the Marlo area in both the onshore and near-shore sectors. The results of these surveys are being integrated with geological mapping and aerial photographic studies with a well planned for the next quarter.
PEP 156 - Onshore, Victoria
(Lakes Oil Group, Operator: 100 percent interest)

Geological studies, which are continuing, were conducted in the Bairnsdale/Lakes Entrance area and around Loch Sport. A better understanding of the geology and petroleum potential of this lightly explored area is emerging.
PEP 157 - Onshore, Victoria
(Lakes Oil Group, Operator: 100 percent interest)

Widespread field operations and geological/geophysical studies occurred during the quarter in this highly prospective block. The field activities included:
- Wombat 2 Appraisal Well (Fracturing)
  
  This well encountered a significant gross gas saturated section. Open-hole Drill Stem Tests flowed gas from two intervals of the early Cretaceous Strzelecki Group. A zone, now believed to be at the base of the Latrobe Group which exhibited a very large gas kick along with heavy homologues, which are normally associated with the presence of oil was the target of two failed open hole Drill Stem Tests.
  
  The first failed due to the plugging of the test tool with Latrobe Group reservoir sands and the second produced Latrobe Group fresh water. The failure to adequately isolate the test interval from a water wet sand caused these failures. A smaller portion of the interval was subsequently tested through casing producing some water along with a small amount of light oil. Further assessment will be made of this zone with the hope that it can be tested in subsequent wells.
- Trifon 2 (Deepening and fracturing)
  
  The Trifon 2 well, which is located some 50 metres from the Trifon 1 well was drilled to a depth of 1267 metres with a conventional rig. This depth is 41 metes into the Strzelecki Group. The well was cased and suspended. This work was preparatory for the proposed deepening and fracture stimulation which is expected to produce commercial gas flows from the tight gas-saturated Strzelecki Group section, which was discovered in the nearby Trifon 1 gas discovery well.
  
  The Trifon wells are located on the large North Seaspray Anticline which along with the adjacent Seaspray Anticline comprise the Greater Trifon Tight Gas Project.
  
  The Trifon Tight Gas Project is funded by Jarden Corporation Australia Pty Ltd to the extent that the first $5 million of expenditure contributed by them will earn a 50% interest in a defined area which covers both the Trifon and Gangell structures and includes the North Seaspray 3 well.
- North Seaspray 3 (Re-entry and Deviation)
  
  The North Seaspray 3 well drilled in 2000 was re-entered and deepened from 1170 to 1438 metres. From this depth, a deviated hole was drilled towards the south east away from the bounding fault. The target sand was encountered at 1294 metres, which corresponds to a true vertical depth of 1269.4 metres. Casing was then run and the well suspended for future horizontal drilling with a coiled tubing unit. This preparatory work is part of another attempt to obtain commercial gas flows from the tight, gas saturated Strzelecki Group section in the Greater Trifon Tight Gas Field.
- Geological and Geophysical
  
  A large scale re-mapping of all modern seismic data in PEP 157 was commenced. A review of all well data was undertaken to calibrate the seismic interpretation, which continues. This mapping will provide new and more accurate maps of the Trifon Tight Gas Project and the Wombat Gas Field. Several leads and prospects within the Strzelecki Group have already been identified. These are expected to be evaluated by future drilling.
PEP 158 - Onshore, Victoria
(Lakes Oil Group, Operator: 100 percent interest)
Work has commenced on re-mapping of all the modern seismic data in this permit. All relevant well completion reports have been reviewed to calibrate the seismic data. Several prospects and leads have been recognised. This re-mapping will be integrated with the previously mentioned re-mapping in the neighbouring permit, PEP 157, to provide continuous maps of the western portion of the onshore Gippsland Basin.
PEP 166 - Onshore, Victoria
(Lakes Oil Group: 50% interest; Operator: AusAm Resources Limited)

Geological studies continued in this permit in the South Gippsland Hills. Farmout discussions have been held with several groups. Lakes Oil awaits the decisions of these interested parties. Leads and prospects have been identified at Hazelwood and Loy Yang amongst others.

OFFSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN

VIC/P47 - Offshore, Victoria
(Lakes Oil Group: Option to earn 77% interest over a portion of the permit; Operator: Eagle Bay Resources NL)

Work has continued on the Gilbert Prospect and on new play concepts in this block in the northern offshore sector of the Gippsland Basin.

Lakes Oil has received from Bass Strait Oil Company Ltd an option for the Ocean Patriot to drill a well in the four graticular blocks forming part of Vic/P47 known as the Gilbert Blocks.
VIC/P40V - Offshore, Victoria
(Lakes Oil Group, Operator: 100% interest)

Work on the recently acquired Falcon airborne gravity gradiometer and magnetics survey continued in this newly awarded permit in Victorian territorial waters between Lakes Entrance and Marlo. The interpretation is being integrated with that in Vic/P47 and PEP 155 to identify either structural or stratigraphic traps on the migration pathways from oil fields, which are known to be spilling oil.

sandstone sequences starting from the bottom zone and progressing individually to the
uppermost zone.
The first zone was successfully fractured and flowed gas to surface during cleanup operations.
There was only a minimum time allowed to clean up this zone fully as all the equipment is on
site and plans are now underway to set the temporary plug and move to the next zone. It is
too early at this time to speculate on the success or failure of the entire frac programme.

• Adatepe & Cayirdere fields in full production
All four Adatepe wells and three Cayirdere wells are now producing gas. One additional
development well has been approved on the eastern side of the Adatepe field. This will be
designated D. Adatepe-2. This well will spud shortly. The Adatepe field is producing
through the dedicated pipeline to the Cerkeskoy industrial park.

• Compressor installed at Gocerler field in Turkey
A single 10 MMscfd compressor is now installed at the Gocerler gas plant and commissioning
operations are now underway. Production through the compressor is due for continuous
operation by early August. The compressor will stabilise the production decline that was
caused by falling reservoir pressure. Gocerler wells 1-5 have been connected to the
compressor and Gocerler-6 will be produced separately.

• Drilling to begin in Oklahoma in early August
Drilling was due to commence on a two well programme in Ellis County, Oklahoma by the
end of July, but has been delayed by two weeks. The drilling rig contractor elected to drill
one additional well before starting on Amity’s programme. While this delay is unfortunate, it
allows more time to conclude the additional land acquisition programme adjacent to the
existing two sections already acquired.- Web Site

HIGHLIGHTS

Tooloom Gold Project, NSW
AT THE PHOENIX PROSPECT DRILL HOLE PHRD08A INTERSECTED 150m OF MINERALISED BRECCIA, FROM 376m TO 526m DOWN-HOLE.

The breccia appears to be a pipe-like body with surface dimensions of about 300m x 70m and a depth extent of more than 450m.
The breccia in PHRD08A is more weakly mineralised than in the earlier hole PHRC02, but contains values up to 1.4 g/t Au over 1m lengths.
Mineralisation in the breccia pipe appears to be unevenly developed and the greater part of the pipe remains to be drilled.
It is still very early days in the exploration of a prospect as large and diverse as Phoenix and the breccia pipe alone is large enough to host a world class gold resource.

Elsmore Tin Project, NSW
POTENTIAL FOR ECONOMIC HARD ROCK TIN-SILVER DEPOSITS AT ELSMORE ENHANCED BY DRILLING AND OUTCROP SAMPLING.

Drilling at the Elsmore tin mine intersected interesting tin values in hard rock, with significant associated copper, molybdenum and silver.
High grade tin mineralisation (up to 2.16% Sn), with associated silver (up to 66 g/t Ag) and base metal values (up to 1.28% Cu), has been identified in greisen outcrop outside the Elsmore mine area but within the Company’s EL 6196.

Coolgardie Joint Venture Production Figures/Costs-Fourth Qtr

Production from the Empress underground mine was adversely impacted in the quarter by
poor availability of the contractor’s mining equipment and a tight slotting and stoping
sequence in the upper levels, which required multiple, small tonnage stope firings. Ore
production is expected to improve in the September quarter.
In the Greenfields open pit, a minor wall failure in one corner of the pit required the mining
of a cut-back to ensure the longer term integrity of the haulage ramp, which delayed ore
production from the floor of the pit.
Feed from Empress, Greenfields and Lindsay’s was supplemented low grade material,
resulting in a lower overall head grade. The treatment plant throughput of 280,775 tonnes
was the highest recorded for the JV project. - Web Site

Positive First Drilling Results from Punitaqui

The Directors are pleased to announce initial drilling results from the company's first drilling program since acquiring the Punitaqui gold copper project in Chile.

The results of the drilling program to date have been very encouraging. All holes have intercepted economic mineralisation with holes CU02 and CU04 in particular recording high grade gold mineralisation similar to that recorded by the earlier diamond holes drilled by the project's previous owner.

The program was designed to test the limits of a high-grade ore zone which had been previously identified on the Diatrema area. The area known as Diatrema is a large breccia complex, hosting sulphide mineralisation at depth, located on the north side of the Los Mantos Valley about one kilometre north of the Punitaqui process plant.

Highlights

All holes for which results have so far been received, have encountered economic mineralisation. Selected results from the four holes received to date include:

* 7 metres @ 9.40 g/t AuEq from Hole CU02
* 5 metres @ 8.14 g/t AuEq from Hole CU04
* 23 metres @ 1.35 g/t AuEq from Hole CU05
* 22 metres @ 2.88 g/t AuEq from Hole CU06

Results for Holes 1 and 3 are yet to be received. Complete details of all results received to date for Holes CU02, CU04, CU05 and CU06 are shown below.

Summary

The program has demonstrated that economic mineralisation is open along strike to the north and to the south and also down dip.

It is worth noting that economic gold mineralisation has been found in the San Carlos adit which was mined on the same breccia complex as the La Culebra adit. The San Carlos adit is located on the other side of the ridge, some 1400 metres north and 93 metres higher in elevation than the La Culebra adit - Web Site

CROESUS MINING

Record Ore Reserves in Norseman’s 70 Year History
Croesus Mining (ASX: CRS) reported today that a two year program of surface and
underground exploration has been successful in achieving the highest ore reserve position for
Norseman operations in their 70 year history.

Ore reserves at Norseman now total 2.2 million tonnes at 6.9g/t gold for 488,000 ounces and
the Norseman resource has increased to 2 million ounces of gold. Central Norseman ore
reserves have increased by 57% since Croesus acquired the operations in 2002. Croesus has
replaced the 327,000 ounces of gold produced since 2002 and added a further 178,000 ounces
of reserve giving newly defined reserves of 505,000 ounces achieved at a cost of $36 per ounce
over the past two and a half years.

Croesus Managing Director Mike Ivey said today, “the ore reserve position gives us about 4
years production but we have numerous drill results, underground development and geological
targets outside the current reserve boundary and we feel very confident that we can increase the
ore reserves beyond these record levels. Our exploration and mining teams have done a great
job over the previous two years but still have plenty of targets to test. Norseman operations
look set to continue for a long time yet.”

Croesus reported a number of high- grade intercepts that are situated outside the current ore
reserve boundary demonstrating the additional outstanding potential of the Norseman goldfield.
These included diamond drill intercepts which reported (true width):

1.36m @ 481g/t 2.81m @ 18.3g/t 7.1m @ 20.4g/t
0.32m @ 120g/t 0.77m @ 193.9g/t 0.36m @ 294.6g/t

and a strike drive developed at the Harlequin mine over an 83m strike length at an average
grade of 110.1g/t at 0.98 metres true width. - Web Site

Coal & Allied impacted by stronger Australian dollar - 2004 half year results
Rio Tinto's 75.7 per cent owned subsidiary, Coal & Allied Industries Limited, issued the following news release in Australia. All dollars are Australian currency.

SUMMARY

Net profit after tax was $7.2 million, similar to the same period last year.
Net debt has reduced in Australian dollar terms by 2 per cent in the first half of 2004 to $443.8 million.
No interim dividend will be paid on ordinary shares.

Commenting on the result, Coal & Allied's Managing Director Dr Grant Thorne said, "The underlying operational result reflects the continuing impact of the strong Australian dollar and the fact that for most of the reporting period Coal & Allied's selling price was locked in at 2003 settlement levels. After a difficult first half, Coal & Allied is only now beginning to enjoy the benefit of prevailing higher prices. The company is operating much mor e profitably, with realised US dollar prices expected to be approximately 25 per cent higher for the second half." - Web Site

MACMIN SILVER / NEW GUINEA GOLD

PRESS RELEASE

DRILLING COMMENCES AT KAVOLA EAST PROSPECT
MT PENCK, PAPUA NEW GUINEA

Vancouver - July 22, 2004. The Kavola East Prospect is a 400m long by 200m wide area of anomalous gold in soils, with trench results such as 97m of 3.39g/t gold, 20m of 2.77g/t gold, 5m of 60g/t gold, 40m of 8.89g/t gold, 131m of 2.36g/t gold and 64m of 2.50g/t gold.

Drill testing of the Kavola East Prospect, Mt Penck property in Papua New Guinea commenced this date.

The objectives of this initial 1,000m diamond core drilling program are to test at Kavola East the near surface or shallow depth extent of the widespread gold encountered in soils and trenches, and to allow an initial resource estimate to be calculated if appropriate; and within the Mt Penck property to provide information on the possible size of the gold system and style of gold mineralisation.

HIGHLIGHTS
41.0 metres at 2.85 g/t gold
30.0 metres at 3.52% copper, 0.93 g/t gold
42.0 metres at 3.02% copper, 0.64 g/t gold

111.5 metres at 1.30% copper, 0.59 g/t gold
129.0 metres at 1.31% copper, 0.47 g/t gold

Drilling and analysis to define a JORC-compliant resource at Prominent Hill is proceeding on schedule. Drill spacing is based on a nominal 100 x 100 metre grid, utilising three diamond drill rigs and one reverse circulation drill rig, with most holes angled 60⁰ towards grid south to intercept a sub-vertical target below a surface area of approximately 1000 x 300 metres (Figure 1).

Results have been received for six holes on three section lines from the eastern part of the deposit (Table 1). They continue to define the scale and grade of the copper-gold breccia system as reported by earlier exploratory drillholes, and significantly expand the area of "gold-only" mineralisation that occurs adjacent to the breccias on this eastern side.

In general the mineralised breccia body remains relatively consistent throughout the sections drilled however as expected in a volcanic pile of this type and as demonstrated at Olympic Dam, internal variability in thickness, grade and mineralogy occurs associated with different breccia types and phases. These features are clearly reflected in the three sections attached.

ERA half year results 2004

Rio Tinto's 68.4 per cent owned subsidiary, Energy Resources of Australia (ERA), issued the following news release in Australia today. All dollars are Australian currency unless otherwise stated.

Net profit after tax for the consolidated entity for the half-year ended 30 June 2004 was $11.4 million (2003: $9.7 million). Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) were $18.2 million compared with $17.0 million in 2003.

The increase in sales revenue was primarily due to the increase in the market price of uranium oxide resulting in an average realised sales price of US$13.35/lb (2003 first-half US$10.93/lb). This was partially offset by the strengthening A$:US$ exchange rate. The average market price of uranium oxide rose from US$14.38 per pound at the beginning of the year to US$18.23 per pound at 30 June 2004 (30 June 2003 $10.83). Sales volume of uranium oxide for the half-year to 30 June 2004 was 2,254 tonnes (2003 first-half 2,325 tonnes) - Web Site

Whicher Range-5 :Multi -zone Fracture Stimulation update

The first fracture stimulation of the lowest zone in the Whicher Range-5 well was carried out as programmed without incident. The flow back of the diesel frac fluid is progressing well. Coiled tubing is being used to assist the lifting and cleaning of the hole. Gas began flowing to surface with the fluids after about 24 hours of flow back and has been flowing at a constant pressure since it started. It is estimated that it will take at least another 24-36 hours to flow back enough of the diesel to assess the success of the operation. At this point the early results are encouraging. - Web Site

MACMIN SILVER

DRILLING INTERSECTS MODERATE GRADE SILVER MINERALISATION
SOUTH OF PROPOSED TWIN HILLS PIT, TEXAS SILVER PROJECT

Exploration drilling impetus has focused in the Twin Hills mine lease over the last two months, following on from the Company's announcement in March to proceed with the construction of a silver processing plant at Twin Hills.

Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling immediately south of the proposed southern boundary of the pit, and in part outside the current resource boundary, encountered intercepts of moderate grade silver mineralisation. Best intercepts included 6m (68 to 74m downhole) at 201g/t silver, 0.21g/t gold, 1% zinc and 4m (98 to 102m downhole) at 167g/t silver, 0.20g/t gold in hole THRC 49. In hole THRC 50 an intercept of 14m at 122g/t silver was encountered between 32 and 46m downhole. A table showing intercepts greater than 30g/t silver is presented below.

WICHIAN BURI OILFIELD UPDATE
Following the recent change of the Pacific Tiger Energy Board, the Joint Venture partners appointed Navigator Resource Management Inc., a Calgary-based firm providing technical and fiscal consulting services to the oil and gas industry worldwide, to undertake a review of the operations of the Wichian Buri Oilfield in central Thailand and the performance of the most recently drilled wells, N7 and N8.
As earlier reported, the N7 and N8 wells have not been performing to expectation. Remedial action, in the form of a solvent wash on N7, has not resulted in bringing the wells on production at rates in keeping with their anticipated capability. Wireline logs acquired during drilling indicate that the wells did encounter significant volumes of oil and should be able to produce at higher levels.
Once the Navigator review is completed, Carnarvon and Pacific Tiger will determine the preferred options for further remediation of the N7 and N8 wells, and for the next phase of development of the oilfield. - Web Site

RIO TINTO

Second quarter operations review

OVERVIEW

Production of Rio Tinto's principal commodities increased in the second quarter compared with the first quarter.
Production benefited from increased output from new projects at Diavik (diamonds), Eastern Range (iron ore), Hail Creek (coking coal) and Escondida (copper).
Output from the Grasberg mine increased as mining returned to the higher grade areas of the open pit towards the end of April. The recovery process is progressing well.
Production from the Western Australian iron ore operations essentially returned to normal following the protracted effects on both volumes and costs of tropical cyclone Monty.
Following the introduction of a port rationing agreement, the ship queue at Newcastle (NSW), which had reached over 50 vessels, fell progressively to around 12 by the end of June.
Asset disposals in the fir st half of the year generated proceeds of over $1 billion. The sales of Somincor and Zinkgruvan were completed in the second quarter. - Web Site

Santos and ConocoPhillips in new Timor Sea exploration venture

Santos Limited and ConocoPhillips - already joint venturers in the giant Bayu- Undan liquids and LNG projects - have joined forces to explore another Timor Sea prospect.

Santos announced today that its subsidiary, Santos Offshore Pty Ltd, has concluded a farmout arrangement with ConocoPhillips’ subsidiary, ConocoPhillips Australia Exploration Pty Ltd, to jointly participate in exploring a major gas prospect in the NT/P61 licence area in the Timor Sea.

ConocoPhillips will earn 60% equity and become Operator of the NT/P61 exploration permit area under the terms of the arrangement. It will fund elements of the permit area work program including the Caldita 1 well (previously shown by Santos as the Melville prospect).

Santos, which was granted the NT/P61 exploration permit in 2001 as 100% equity holder and Operator, will retain a 40% interest in the permit area. The agreement is subject to approval by relevant authorities.

The NT/P61 permit area covers over 5,300 square kilometres and is adjacent to the Evans Shoal gas field in which Santos holds 40% equity and is the Operator.

It is approximately 390 kilometres from the Bayu-Undan Liquids and LNG fields in which Santos and ConocoPhillips have an existing joint venture relationship. Bayu-Undan is already producing gas liquids and will commence exporting LNG early in 2006. - Web Site

MACMIN SILVER

TWIN HILLS SILVER MINE PRE-DEVELOPMENT WORK COMMENCES

The Board of Macmin recently approved a budget of approximately $400,000 to commence pre-development work at the site of the Twin Hills Silver Mine, within the Texas Silver Project in S.E. Queensland, Australia.

Existing Company cash funds will finance this work which represents the first step towards the construction and commissioning of the silver processing plant announced by the Company on March 4, 2004.

The Company has been advised that a report on the costing and design of the Electrometals electrowinning silver recovery plant will be finalised by Electrometals Technologies Ltd on 16 July. The information from this report will provide the Company with the relevant details on which it can make a decision on selecting the optimum silver recovery system.

A mine surveyor has been contracted to start work on July 15 to establish mine survey control points around the pit area. When mining commences, these control points will be used to monitor bench heights and to determine material volumes for Mine Plan reconciliation. The centreline of the mine site access road and the Mine Lease boundary will be located on plan.

A detailed plan of the pit and processing area will be compiled to confirm existing ortho photo contour plans. Once the contour plans for the site are completed, work will begin on the civil engineering design of the heap leach pads, processing ponds and the stormwater containment dam. Construction of these facilities will then commence.

Pump testing of the water bores will commence in the near future to confirm the water flows from the air lift testing when the bores were first drilled three years ago. The air lift tests indicated that there was sufficient water for the processing operations.

Updated costing for plant, equipment and grid power are being sought so that once development funding is received, rapid progress can be made on mine construction.

NEW GUINEA GOLD

NEWS RELEASE

Vancouver - July 15, 2004 In conjunction with New Guinea Gold's Joint venture partner, Celtic Minerals Ltd., we wish to disseminate the following information:

CELTIC MINERALS ACQUIRES AN ADDITIONAL 751KM² AT CRATER MOUNTAIN

The Papua New Guinea department of mining has granted Celtic Minerals Ltd. ("Celtic") an additional 751km² exploration licence surrounding the original 44km² joint venture license on the Crater Mountain project. This new exploration license will also be included in the existing joint venture. Under the terms of the joint venture, Celtic will earn a 75% interest from New Guinea Gold Corp ("NGG") by funding CDN $4 million in exploration expenditures. Celtic has also entered into a joint venture with Triple Plate Junction PLC ("TPJ"), a public company based in London, England whereby TPJ can earn a 68% interest in Celtic's interest in the project subject to Celtic's earn in agreement with NGG. To earn its interest in the Crater Mountain project, TPJ will fund an aggregate of Cdn $ 1,000,000 on exploration, $ 500,000 of which will be spent on or prior to March 31, 2005 and a further $500,000 of which will be spent on or prior to December 31, 2005. Should the Celtic / TPJ joint venture earn a 75% interest from NGG, the effective participating interest of each party would be 51% TPJ; 25% NGG; 24% Celtic..

HISTORICAL DRILLING AND EXPLORATION

Seven historical drill holes have been completed on the Nevera prospect with the best results from NEV 2 which returned 115m at 1.83 g/t gold with the hole terminated at a depth of 340m while still in gold mineralization and NEV 5 which returned 24m at 6.55g/t gold also ending while still in gold mineralization. All drill holes encountered significant gold mineralization throughout their entire lengths (NEV 5 intersected a total length of 196m at 0.43g/t gold). All holes showed intense silica, argillic or carbonate alteration and holes 4, 6 and 7 intersected numerous narrow, presumably structurally controlled intersections.

Celtic is very encouraged by these results, as they appear to indicate that most holes have intersected the envelope or upper parts of a major gold bearing hydrothermal system.

In December, 2003 our joint venture partner New Guinea Gold Corp (NGG:TSX-VEN) carried out an initial trenching program with an extremely encouraging result interval of 48m @9.97g/t gold (including 4m of 50.4g/t gold and 4m of 41.6g/t gold ) in one trench and 20m of 1.23 g/t gold in a further trench. These were the best trench results achieved at Crater Mountain to date.

GENERAL GEOLOGY OF THE CONCESSION

The project contains a partly dissected strata volcano that has intruded a sequence of fine-grained sediments. Quartz feldspar porphyry, quartz diorite and other dioritic intrusives and andesitic volcanics with associated gold and copper mineralization occur along a northerly to NE trending transfer structure, a significant portion of which occurs on the property. Mineralization is known at several places along this structure but most work has been completed at the northern end at the Nevera Prospect.

Evaluation of previous soil and stream geochemistry has defined three prospect areas contiguous with the Nevera Prospect and in the general Nevera area at Crater Mountain. The Nevera South Prospect, 2 to 3 km south of Nevera, has visible gold in two pan concentrates samples that assayed 256g/t Au and 86.3 g/t Au. At Nevera Southwest rock samples contain up to 33% Zn and 453g/t Ag. At Nera West a 3km long zone west of Nevera , gold in soils of 46g/t Au and 15g/t Au have been recorded in addition to many anomalous arsenic values to 860 ppm.

Work Program

Fieldwork will begin with the construction of approximately eight km of bush track to enable land access for construction of a field camp at the Nevera Prospect. Evaluation at Nevera will consist initially of grid reconstruction and geological mapping followed by deep overburden sampling with the intention of sampling below the recent volcanic ash cover. This initial work will be in preparation for a drilling program to follow.

Nyuni Block Tanzania - Update

The Government of Tanzania ("the Government") has agreed to deem the recent drilling of the Nyuni-1 well by Bounty and partners as having satisfied the work obligation for the first exploration phase of the Nyuni Licence and has extended the Licence into its second exploration phase. In addition, the Government has allowed the Joint Venture until 30 November 2004 to finalise a work program and complete a re-appraisal of the licence in order to select acreage to be retained in accordance with statutory requirements.

Nyuni-1, the group’s first well in the licence, established the presence of crude oil in an area previously regarded as purely gas-prone and confirmed the prospectivity of the region, providing valuable information about the potential of the permit. The Joint Venture intends to carry out a further exploration drilling program within the Licence. It is likely that initial work on the second phase work program will include the reprocessing of existing seismic data and the acquisition of new seismic within the licence area. - Web Site

UPDATE ON DRAGON’S OPERATIONS IN FINLAND AND SWEDEN

Dragon Mining NL has received environmental approval from Finnish regulatory authorities for its Jokisivu Gold Project in southern Finland. Dragon is now progressing with feasibility studies to develop Jokisivu and re-develop the nearby Orivesi Mine. On going drilling at Jokisivu has continued to produce spectacular high grade intercepts that are substantially extending the known zone of mineralisation at depth and along strike. Drilling at the Orivesi Mine also continues to produce high grade intercepts from the Savisuo Lode in a panel that extends from above the 285m level to below the 525m level.
In Sweden construction of Dragon’s Svartliden Gold Mine is expected to accelerate with the imminent arrival of major plant modules, and critical path items are beginning to crystallize more precisely final construction and commissioning schedules. - Web Site

HELIX RESOURCES

COMPANY OVERVIEW
Whilst Helix has continued to maintain an extensive portfolio of exploration projects for gold, platinum group metals and nickel throughout Australia, the company has focussed much of its effort in the past 12 months on developing a new mine at its Tunkillia Project at Lake Everard in the Gawler Craton region of South Australia.
Since purchasing the 49% share of Tunkillia held by AngloGold in May 2003, Helix has rapidly progressed the project; the resource at Area 223 has almost doubled and as the drilling continues, results have shown excellent potential for further expansion. To date the company has outlined a JORC resource of 730,000 oz of Au of which about 390,000 oz is mineable by open cut methods at the current gold price. Recently, a new project development team has been employed to oversee the transition of the project from exploration to development.
The team consisting of experienced South Australian based mining engineers and mine
geologists will manage the feasibility study through to its completion in early 2005.
In addition to the development of Area 223, Helix holds tenements covering over 3,000 sq km in the
Lake Everard region. The company is currently trialing new geophysical techniques to prioritise the
numerous and large gold in calcrete anomalies within the tenement package.
Outside of South Australia gold exploration is continuing in the Gascoyne and Yilgarn regions of Western Australia. Exploration and resource drilling at the Glenburgh Project will be carried out in late 2004 - Web Site

QUARTERLY REPORT - JUNE 2004
HIGHLIGHTS

Completion of the Gullewa Operations Bankable Feasibility Study has been extended to allow the incorporation of new positive results from the further optimised mine designs and recent metallurgical testwork.
The optimised open pit mine design has increased the pit size and extended the projected mine life to 2.6 years, which defers the commencement of underground mining.
The combined open pit and underground mine designs have a projected life in excess of 4 years.
The metallurgical programme has been expanded to include further gravity testwork following the better than expected gravity gold recoveries returned from primary ore.
Deflector Deposit resource upgraded to 342,000 oz’s Au Eq.
Gullewa Project global resource inventory increased by 33% to 440,000 oz’s Au Eq.
Promising results returned from exploration during the quarter,
including:
- 6m @ 83.53g/t Au from Michaelangelo Prospect
- 4m @ 9.01g/t Au from Tintoretto Prospect
- 2m @ 8.48g/t Au from Tintoretto Prospect
During the September quarter exploration activities will be continued at Deflector Deposit and regional prospects.
Mr Paul Odd, an experienced mining engineer, appointed to the Board of Directors.

Second Quarter Activities Report

Improved reliability and consistency at Olympic Dam and completion of major maintenance at our nickel operations position us well for a strong second half.

Record smelter throughput at Olympic Dam contributed to higher copper production for the quarter and cathode production is expected to increase further in the second half of the year. Mine production was down slightly on the previous quarter. A work program to address this is being implemented.

Nickel production was on plan for the quarter and we are on track to meet our full year targets.

Acid availability constrained fertilizer production during the quarter and full year production is now expected to be 900,000 tonnes.

A revised management structure, with an expanded focus on growth and business development opportunities, was introduced during the quarter. The next stage of the Olympic Dam Development study pre-feasibility work has begun and drilling commenced at the Yakabindie nickel project.

Our focus remains on safe, consistent and reliable performance. I am especially pleased with our nickel operations delivering to plan and the significant improvements in reliability at Olympic Dam in a continued period of strong commodity prices.

SONS OF GWALIA

Fourth Quarter Activities Report

COMMENT ON EARNINGS OUTLOOK
Sons of Gwalia Ltd (“the Company”) has released its report for the June quarter today. The
decline in gold production in the second half of 2003/04 reflects a declining production profile for
the gold business which will continue in this financial year. Tantalum operations continue to be
impacted by lower grade and recovery particularly at Wodgina.

The result for the 2003/04 year is being finalised and the Company’s present expectation is for a
result after tax, before any significant items, in the order of $21-22 million. Whilst we are still
developing estimates for earnings in 2004/05 it has become evident that the 2004/05 earnings
will not meet current analyst consensus and are unlikely to exceed the result for the 2003/04
year.

Work is continuing on the Strategic Review of the Company’s business. This review includes
reassessment of mine plans, analysis of the Company’s resources and reserves, review of the
gold production plans, potential rationalisation plans, hedging policies, asset carrying values and
balance sheet management.

There are a number of significant interrelated issues under review, the resolution of which may
further impact the final earnings outlook for 2004/05. We are unable to provide more guidance
on the earnings outlook until conclusion of the review.

At that time, the Company expects to be in a position to give further guidance on the 2004/05
earnings outlook, matters impacting on performance (particularly of a short to medium term
nature) and an outlook statement for the Company for future years.

The details of the Strategic Review will be announced along with the 2003/04 annual results by
the end of August.- Web Site

AVOCA RESOURCES

Fourth Quarter Activities Report

Key advances during the quarter were:

The signing of the formal agreement with Gold Fields for the Higginsville acquisition. This has allowed Avoca to start an initial 1600m diamond drill program, which is currently in place and working double shift. The Higginsville drill program is aimed at converting the existing Inferred Resource to an Indicated Resource, so that a mineable reserve can be delineated. Avoca’s plan is to be in production at Higginsville within 12 months.
Decision to commence a resource drill out on the very high grade Moray reef at Mt Fisher located east of the Jundee Gold Mine in Western Australia. Over 40 holes are planned to define an Indicated Resource to a nominal depth of 100m.
Avoca completed a 466m deep diamond hole into the large scale Southbank copper-gold target near Port Pirie in South Australia. Assays are awaited however chalcopyrite (a copper-bearing sulphide) is evident in the drill hole.
Avoca has also identified drill targets following electromagnetic surveys for nickel on the Jimberlana dyke (associated with a nickel gossan); and for copper-gold at Cowell, also in South Australia. Information on these targets are included in the report.

Herald Announces Listing of Jaguar Minerals Limited

Herald is pleased to announce that off-shoot company Jaguar Minerals Ltd has today been admitted to the Official List of the Australian Stock Exchange. Official quotation of the Company’s securities will commence at 12p.m. E.S.T. (10.00a.m. W.S.T) on Thursday, 15 July 2004.

The Jaguar prospectus raised $3,144,200 before costs.

Securities to be quoted comprise 15,721,000 ordinary fully-paid shares and 7,860,500 September 2008 $0.20 options.

Jaguar has continued to develop exploration programmes for its five exploration projects during the float process. The Company anticipates starting ground EM at the Balfour project in Tasmania on at least 5 of the anomalies highlighted in the prospectus soon after listing. Follow up work on the significant drill intersections at the Kintore project in WA will be also part of the kick start to exploration work.

Mount David and Spingfield in NSW need broader assessment, with the 47,000oz inferred resource at Sprinfield requiring further drilling, and the drill core from previous exploration on Mt David to be re-logged. Jaguar will also undertake to verify existing geological maps of the area and update where required.

Soil sampling and/or auger sampling at the Wilson River Project will be carried out to investigate the area in terms of its nickel, zinc and cobalt geochemistry, particularly around the already established Dighem anomalies.- Web Site

TASGOLD

RIGHTS ISSUE PROSPECTUS

TasGold has lodged a prospectus with ASX and ASIC for a 2 for 3, non-renounceable Rights Issue of shares at 16 cents, with one free option accompanying each New Share allotted, to raise up to a maximum of approximately $4 million. The record date is 22 July 2004 and the issue will close on 12 August 2004.

The attached initial advice to shareholders and optionholders and comments on forthcoming Rights Issue contain further details and will be mailed to each shareholder and optionholder on 13 July 2004.

A Prospectus detailing the non-renounceable Rights Issue was lodged by TasGold with the Australian Securities & Investments Commission on 12 July 2004. A copy is available on the TasGold website www.tasgold.com.au. The Prospectus, with personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, is expected to be mailed on 27 July 2004.

COMMENTS ON FORTHCOMING RIGHTS ISSUE

Since listing on the ASX in April 2003, there have been many exciting developments and new acquisitions within your company. We now need to raise additional funds to implement our business strategy and ongoing exploration in Tasmania and Papua New Guinea (PNG).

I urge you to support the forthcoming Rights Issue as without such support your company cannot succeed.

The exciting developments are as follows:

Applications for 14 exploration licenses in PNG, most with significant results from previous exploration, and the recently announced financial arrangements with Fraserfund, a Canadian TSX listed company.
The drill intersection of a wide interval of massive sulphide (zinc, lead, silver) mineralisation in the last drill hole at the Southern Mt Read Volcanics (SMRV) Project. This is the best and most exciting intersection ever, of mineralisation at the SMRV Project, and bodes well for future drilling.
Acquisition of the gold resource at the Gowrie Park property and the joint farm-in with Malachite Resources of BHP Billiton's Mt Ramsey tin/massive sulphide project.

Your managing director, Peter McNeil is to be commended for his foresight and for using his extensive knowledge and experience of PNG geology and mineralisation (at an opportune time before the market became competitive) to apply for 14 high quality projects in that country. He has gone further, and negotiated a favourable financing deal for most of these PNG properties with Fraserfund, which leaves TasGold with a significant beneficial interest in these projects but without any further financial commitment unless a mine (or mines) is developed. For further details I refer you to an ASX release dated 12^th July 2004.

PNG is known for its major gold and copper/gold orebodies/mines, such as the Placer Pacific operated Porgera and Misima mines, Rio Tinto operated Lihir Mine, DRD operated Tolukuma Mine, the proposed development by Harmony Gold at Morobe and by Highlands Pacific at Kainantu. I personally have the view that mine development from successful exploration in PNG has a lower risk profile than similar developments in most parts of Australia.

For details of the PNG applications I refer you to ASX releases dated 20^th February 2004, 8^th April 2004 and 12^th July 2004. The Mt Bini application already has significant gold and copper inferred mineral resources. Mt Bini and other licence applications have extensive evidence of gold and gold/copper mineralisation in rock samples, trench and drill hole. Selected results include trench results such as 204m of 1.9g/t gold (including 55m of 5.8g/t gold), 10.9m of 26.9g/t gold and drill hole results such as 184m of 1.00g/t gold and 0.31% copper.

In Tasmania the massive sulphides, plus silver mineralisation, intersected at the SMRV Project, is the best drill intersection (see ASX release of 28^th June 2004), encountered to date in this area. This intersection together with other narrower intersections by previous explorers, and trench intersections, gives us confidence that there could be a major zinc, lead, silver body within the SMRV Project, similar to the Rosebery Mine in central west Tasmania. This mine has been operating for many years and the gross metal value of its total known metal content is of the order of $12 billion.

Some drill holes at the SMRV Project did encounter wide intervals of low grade or trace gold in a consistent zone over a length of more than one hundred metres. A significant high grade gold body could still exist. In addition we need to start and follow up the large areas which contain alluvial gold in creeks (see TasGold Prospectus dated 9^th January 2003) to see if we can locate high grade sources for this gold.

This Rights Issue offer is directed solely to TasGold shareholders (only TasGold shareholders can participate) and is, I believe, a very attractive offer. The share plus free option for which you will pay 16 cents amounts to a package worth, on 9^th July, 24 cents.

As an existing TasGold shareholder you have a guaranteed entitlement as shown on the accompanying entitlement form. In addition, you can apply for more shares (and free options) at the same price as your entitlement. Applications for additional shares (which will come from any shortfall) will be processed on a first come first served basis, so get your application in early.

The reason for having a Rights Issue, instead of seeking placements or farming out projects, is to give shareholders a first opportunity to participate in any future success of TasGold, at a relatively low equity entry price. Exploration success can come at any time - but more often success seems to come to those who have patience and perseverance. Patience and perseverance with an emphasis on drilling good projects is TasGold's philosophy.

If the Rights Issue is not fully subscribed, we reserve the right to make placements as the Board deems necessary, or to pursue further joint ventures as appropriate.

The funds raised by this Issue will place your company in a good financial position. The funds will be used to increase the exploration effort at the SMRV Project, to continue exploration at TasGold's other projects and for working capital (perhaps for future acquisitions). In addition some modest funds may be needed to keep four of the PNG projects (not those in the Fraserfund deal) in good standing, until joint ventures can be concluded.

You may only take up your rights by completing and returning your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance form that will accompany the prospectus for the Rights Issue. The company intends despatching these documents to shareholders on 27 July 2004.

I would like to thank you for your support since listing and urge you to read the recent releases and prospectus on our website www.tasgold.com.au, carefully read the prospectus when it arrives, and seriously consider investing in the Issue.
Yours sincerely,

TASGOLD LTD

SMC Pegs More Ground in Chile and Updates Drilling Plans

New Mining Concessions

The Board of SMC Gold Limited (SMC) is pleased to advise that the Company has applied for, and expects to receive, exploration concessions over a further 34 square kilometres of ground in Chile. The new concessions are adjacent to SMC's current gold/copper mining leases in the established mining precinct in the Punitaqui area. Securing the concessions will allow SMC to explore potential extensions of the Diatrema, Dalmacia and Cinabrio mineralised systems.

Update on Drilling Plans

The initial drilling program at Diatrema is nearing completion and results of the program are expected to be announced shortly.

After completion of the Diatrema program the drill rig will drill two holes at Campamento (adjacent to the Punitaqui flotation plant). Following this the Company will commence a delineation drilling program of Block 1 at Cinabrio. This will be followed immediately by step out drilling to test some of the other blocks in the Cinabrio system.

MORE NICKEL INTERSECTIONS AND EM TARGETS AT EMU LAKE

Image Resources is pleased to advise results from the recent wide-spaced drilling programme at its 30%-owned Emu Lake nickel project (Jubilee 60% and Skryne Hill Pty Ltd 10%) 70km northeast of Kalgoorlie, WA.
Diamond drilling around a previous high-grade intercept of 2m at 6.20% Ni and 1.78% Cu in drill hole ELD 15 has confirmed the presence of widespread nickel sulphides over a 150m strike length at the Gossan Zone at depths ranging from 200m to 350m below surface. The recent sixhole diamond drilling programme was designed to test both down-hole electromagnetic targets and the interpreted plunge orientation of the mineralisation.

The intersections comprise massive nickel sulphide and stringers at or close to the main ultramafic contact. Subsequent down-hole EM surveys have identified several off-hole conductors that are interpreted to lie internal to the zone drilled to date and probably represent zones of local thickening of the massive sulphides. It is significant to note that the massive sulphide lenses comprising the orebodies at the nearby Silver Swan mine can be complex and irregular in shape, often requiring a high drilling density to define them. Owing to the relatively wide-spaced drilling pattern at the Gossan Zone, the geometry of the sulphide mineralisation remains to be determined by further drilling. Further down-hole EM surveys are planned in five recently completed RC holes adjacent to the Gossan Zone.
The results to date indicate that a strong mineralised nickel sulphide system is present at the Gossan Zone and that the wider Emu Lake project remains highly prospective. - Web Site

Placer Dome Confirms Notice on Cerro Casale
Vancouver, Canada: Placer Dome Inc. (NYSE, TSX, ASX: PDG) confirms that it received a notice of default on July 2, 2004 respecting certain non-monetary obligations under its Shareholders' Agreement with the Bema Gold Corporation ("Bema") and the Arizona Star Resource Corp. ("Arizona Star") respecting the Cerro Casale project in Chile. Under the terms of the Shareholders' Agreement Placer Dome has 30 days to cure any non-monetary defaults. Placer Dome believes it has fulfilled and continues to fulfill its obligations under the Shareholders' Agreement.

Bema and Arizona Star issued a joint press release dated July 7, 2004 regarding the above. Except for the statements that Placer Dome has determined that the Cerro Casale Project is not currently financeable under the terms of the Shareholders' Agreement, and that Bema and Arizona Star have given Placer Dome a notice of default, Placer Dome does not agree with the contents of their press release.

Placer Dome intends to discuss these issues with its partners over the coming weeks.- Web Site

BIG WIDTHS AND HIGHER GOLD GRADES AT SIANA

Results for the latest three diamond holes include gold intersections of 41 metres at 5.0 g/t (33m true width, 170m below surface, SMDD42), 86 metres at 3.1 g/t (79m true width, 125m below surface, SMDD43) and 19 metres at 5.2 g/t (17m true width, 115m below surface, SMDD44).

The gold grades intersected by this drilling are significantly greater in tenor than anticipated (cf current Resource grade of 1.9 g/t gold). The new results complement those reported last month (SMDD 34,39 and 41) and confirm the distribution of broad widths of mineralisation within 40 to
70 metres vertically below the existing pit floor.
Importantly, from a resource upgrade estimation perspective, some of the holes passed through collapsed former underground workings with stope material reporting higher gold values than the adjacent in-situ wallrock. - Web Site

EXPLORATION UPDATE

PEP 157 – ONSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA
WOMBAT AND TRIFON GAS FIELDS

Lakes Oil (“LKO”) advises that the Hunt rig has arrived on site at the Wombat 2 location and is riggingup in preparation for fracture stimulation expected to commence later this month.

The rig will then move to the Trifon 2 well site where it will extend the well from the current depth of 1200 metres to the programmed depth of 2500 metres again in preparation for fracturing stimulation.

PEP 155 – ONSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA and
VIC/P40V – OFFSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA

Lakes Oil has recently completed an Airborne Gravity Survey covering an area between Lakes Entrance and Marlo, Eastern Victoria.

The survey covered both onshore and offshore acreage. An interpretation of this survey has been completed by Hugh Rutter of Flagstaff GeoConsultants, his conclusions are most interesting:

“There is sufficient evidence derived from the gravity and magnetic data to indicate the presence of a previously unknown sub-basin extending from Marlo for a distance of up to 10km offshore in a southwest direction, with a width of between 3 and 5km.

Calculations based on the geophysical data indicate that there is the potential for sediments capable of containing hydrocarbons to be located within the basin.”

As a result of this survey Lakes Oil has decided to drill a well on a topographical high interpreted to be a structural trap at the target horizon, the Colquhoun Gravel. This well will be named “Banjo” and is scheduled to be drilled in August/September. Lakes Oil expects that the Colquhoun Gravel may have trapped oil migrating onshore from Bass Strait as is the case at the still to be developed oil field at Lakes Entrance.

VIC/P47 – OFFSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA

Lakes Oil have received from Bass Strait Oil Company Ltd an option for the Ocean Patriot to drill a well in the Four Graticular blocks forming part of Vic/P47 known as the Gilbert Blocks.

Interests:		PEP 155 - Operator 100%
		VIC/P40V - Operator 80%
		VIC/P47 - Option to earn 77% over a portion of the Permit (Gilbert Blocks)

CROESUS MINING

High-grade intercepts extend St Patricks Reef

Croesus Mining (ASX: CRS) reported today further high- grade intercepts that significantly extend the known area of the St Patricks reef at Norseman.

Seven of nine holes completed in May returned various amounts of visible gold hosted within laminated quartz veining and returned significant results (all results reported as true width) including:

0.19m @ 296.2 g/t gold
0.82m @ 56.9g/t gold
0.93m @ 44.3g/t gold

This has extended the surface area of the eastern part of St Patricks to at least a 300m x 200m area which remains open at depth.

This new area is outside the current St Patricks resource which totals 318,000 tonnes @ 11.9 g/t for 121,000 ounces of gold. Updated resource and reserve estimates will be completed in June following the completion of the current drilling program.

These results have the potential to significantly increase the St Patricks resource and continue to make St Patricks a highly ranked target with additional drilling planned to test the plunge extent of known mineralisation.

MINOTAUR JOINS CULLEN TO EXPLORE DUCHESS PROJECT FOR LARGE TONNAGE COPPER/GOLD DEPOSITS, Mt ISA REGION, QUEENSLAND

The Directors of Cullen Resources Limited (Cullen) are pleased to announce that agreement has been reached with Minotaur Operations Pty Ltd (Minotaur), a subsidiary of Minotaur Resources Limited (ASX: MNR), to form a joint venture (Duchess Joint Venture) covering Cullen’s tenements (EPM 11990 and 12395 – a total of 291 km²), approximately 100kms south east of Mt Isa.

Under the terms of the Duchess Joint Venture, Minotaur can earn a 70% interest in the tenements for an expenditure of $3 million over four years, of which $100,000 is a first year, minimum commitment.

When Minotaur has earned its 70% equity, Cullen may independently fund its share of expenditure at the 30% level or elect to either convert to a 20% deferred carried interest (capped at $2 million of Cullen’s equity share of expenditure) which is repayable to Minotaur out of 50% of Cullen’s free cash flow from a mining operation on the Duchess Project area or convert to a 2% Net Smelter Return.

Minotaur is a very successful Australian exploration company having been involved in the discovery of the Prominent Hill copper/gold deposit in South Australia. Minotaur has an exclusive alliance with BHP Billiton in South Australia and New South Wales to search for major ore deposits. Cullen identified a strong magnetic anomaly in the Mayfield tenement (EPM 12395) associated with the major Pilgrim Fault. Widespread alteration and copper/gold mineralisation in the area of the magnetic anomaly has not been drilled adequately and remains prospective for large tonnage copper/gold deposits. Minotaur plans a gravity survey of the Duchess tenements with follow up detailed gravity and magnetic surveys.

Cullen’s Managing Director Grahame Hamilton commented: “We are very pleased to welcome Minotaur to manage exploration of the Duchess tenements. With their expertise in exploring magnetic anomalies for large tonnage copper/gold deposits, the prospects for discovery are enhanced significantly. Cullen’s work to date has identified extensive alteration and mineralisation in the tenement areas with several identified prospects that may provide early targets for drilling.”

MINOTAUR JOINS CULLEN TO EXPLORE DUCHESS PROJECT FOR LARGE TONNAGE COPPER-GOLD DEPOSITS, Mt ISA REGION, QUEENSLAND

The Directors of Minotaur Resources Limited are pleased to announce a joint venture (Duchess Joint Venture) with Cullen Resources Limited covering Cullen's tenements (EPM 11990 and 12395 - total area 291 square kilometres), approximately 100kms south east of Mt Isa.

Under the terms of the Duchess Joint Venture, Minotaur Resources subsidiary, Minotaur Operations Pty Ltd can earn a 70% interest in the tenements for an expenditure of $3 million over four years, of which $100,000 is a first year, minimum commitment.

When Minotaur has earned its 70% equity, Cullen may independently fund its share of expenditure at the 30% level or elect to either convert to a 20% deferred carried interest (capped at $2 million of Cullen's equity share of expenditure) which is repayable to Minotaur out of 50% of Cullen's free cash flow from a mining operation on the Duchess Project area or convert to a 2% Net Smelter Return.

Minotaur has identified the region as one having similar magnetic, alteration and other characteristics to the Mt Woods terrain in South Australia. Cullen's work to date has identified extensive alteration and mineralisation in the tenement areas with several identified prospects forming early target areas. Minotaur intends to apply new concepts identified from its successful exploration at Prominent Hill to the tenements including a regional gravity survey of the Duchess tenements with follow up detailed gravity and magnetic surveys over identified targets.

In addition to the Cullen tenements, Minotaur is advancing exploration on several tenements in the Cloncurry area under farm-in with BHP Billiton.

MAURITANIA JV APPROVES 2004 DRILLING PLANS

Hardman Resources Ltd (“Hardman”) is pleased to advise that the Mauritania joint venture partners
have now finalised and formally approved plans for the 2004 drilling campaign. The entire
programme is expected to comprise up to ten exploration and appraisal wells and ten development
wells (both producers and injectors). Drilling is expected to commence in August 2004.

Exploration:
The exploration wells approved for the 2004 programme are in PSC Areas A and B, where two and
three wells respectively will be drilled, and in PSC Block 2, where one well will be drilled. All the
selected exploration prospects have Miocene reservoir targets, but range from lower risk prospects
within the two Miocene channel systems proven by the Chinguetti and Tiof discoveries, through to
prospects that will test the new Miocene channel areas which have been mapped in the deep water
parts of PSC Area A and PSC Block 2. The PSC Area B wells are planned for the Tevet, Merou, and Capitaine prospects. - Web Site

NEW GUINEA GOLD

TRENCHING COMMENCES AT SIMUKU COPPER PROJECT,
PAPUA NEW GUINEA

Vancouver - 29th June 2004. Trench evaluation of the southern part of the Simuku porphyry copper/gold system has commenced and will continue for the next few weeks.

Past exploration, including a comprehensive soil sampling program in 2003, has defined a very large copper mineralized system which is presently known to be at least 4.5kms wide, 500 to 1800m long and at least 250m deep.

Twelve drill holes in the northern third of the system suggests a background copper/gold grade of about 0.35%Cu and 0.1g/t gold with some molybdenum credits.

Drill hole intersections include 277m @ 0.33% copper and 0.06g/t gold (entire hole); 63m @ 0.52% copper and 0.12g/t gold; 41m @ 0.64% copper and 0.04g/t gold; 150m @ 0.15% copper, 0.02g/t gold, 1.4g/t silver and 0.01% molybdenum; 30m of 0.70% copper and 0.1g/t gold.

The 2003 soil geochemical sampling outlined a two kilometer long zone at the southern end of the system which appears to represent possible higher copper grades in the bedrock (Figure 1). This zone is now being comprehensively trenched to determine the copper grades in rock and will be mapped to predict likely sub-surface copper grades, and the surface extent of the copper system.

The Simuku Project is located near the West New Britain Provincial capital and port of Kimbe, in Papua New Guinea. It is relatively easily accessible and can be accessed by road and track. Additional drill tracks are being constructed in preparation for a possible later drilling program.
