As detailed in the announcement of 26 October 2015 the Acquisition will be a significant change to the nature
and scale of Celsius’ business activities which will require re-compliance with the ASX’s admission
requirements in Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of the ASX Listing Rules, including a consolidation of shares. Celsius
will dispatch a notice of meeting to shareholders seeking all of the relevant approvals in line with the timetable
outlined below, with such notice to include detailed information on Favourit, including detailed financial
information showing the effect of the transaction on Celsius. Shareholders should review this material in detail.
West Australian Nickel Assets
Celsius owns two nickel assets in Western Australia. Celsius (through View Nickel Pty Ltd) owns a 30% joint
venture interest in the Carnilya Hill Joint Venture in Western Australia with Mincor Resources NL (Joint
Venture). Mincor Resources NL (Mincor, ASX:MCR) is the operator of the Carnilya Hill JV. The tenements
covered by the Camilya Hill Joint Venture (JV) include Mining Licences M26/47, M26/48, M26/49 and
M26/453. Additionally the Company has a 100% interest in the Abengo Hill Nickel Project to the south and
west of Minara Resources’ Murrin Murrin nickel mine. The tenements are located near to Minara Resources’
Murrin Murrin mine and the NiWest operation currently under development by GME Resources Ltd and are
believed to have potential for both nickel laterite and nickel sulphide mineralisation.
Mincor has not advised the Company of any material results from exploration at the Carnilya Hill Project during
the Quarter. While mining operations at Carnilya Hill ceased in the first quarter of 2012 access to the decline
and other mine infrastructure was maintained so that the opportunity to recommence mining remains intact.
Celsius initiated a reassessment of the Abengo Hill Nickel Project in 2014. While prospective for both gold and
nickel mineralisation the targets identified are early stage and conceptual in nature and therefore the Board
has determined that intensive exploration is not warranted at this stage. Activities on the Project will focus on
refining and advancing the targets identified through low cost exploration.
