Company Overview

• Corporate Strategy – Explore and exploit multi-commodity assets in Latin America– Provide risk diversification – Growth to be achieved through systematic exploration and effective project identification

• Potent Execution Strategy– Since Jan. 2012 IPO, RGX has confirmed polymetallic mineralisation at its La Negra Project in Chile– Demonstrated operational capability following successful completion of La Negra Project drilling program– High grade metals confirmed in surface sampling at Cerro Huancash Project in Peru– Capitalising on strong in-house Latin American expertise and networking to guarantee flow of further, high quality,

counter-cyclical opportunities

• Diverse Portfolio of Assets - Base and Precious Metals in South America– Latin American focus; high value exploration ground held in Chile and Peru– 100% ownership of tenements providing effective funding optionality– High-Grade Zinc / Lead / Copper / Silver / Gold project pipeline– Multi-commodity exposure

Chile

La Negra Mineralisation Discovery• Polymetallic (Zn, Pb, Ag + Au) mineralisation

confirmed by 12 holes (totalling 2,520m) of current year drilling along 400 m segment of breccia unit

• Significant Upside - with total outcropping mineralised breccia strike length exceeding 1300 m

• Mineralised breccia conforms to anomalous surface geochemistry halos and chargeability anomaly mapped in 3D induced polarisation survey

• Relatively thin oxidised zone overlying sulphide resource target

• Independent preliminary metallurgical testing by Promet 101 confirms La Negra sulphide ores appear highly amendable to separation through conventional sulphide flotation circuits

La Negra – Summary

• RGX successfully operated drilling program via Combarbalá field office • Drilling program has realised a number of potentially economic base-

precious metal intersections• Favourable metallurgical characteristics indicated by preliminary test work• Near surface mineralisation suggests La Negra very amendable to future

open-cut exploitation• RGX now owns Project 100% following exercise of option• Large mining companies (eg. Vale, Antofagasta, Glencore) operating nearby

and La Negra is located close to key infrastructure and the coast• La Negra represents a substantial polymetallic zone which requires further

drilling for resource definition• Field results will form the basis for 3rd party introduction and funding of

future drilling resource delineation
