Geological modelling indicates that the Big Vein South and Big Vein Central zones are a continuous structure with minor fault offsets, rather than discrete lenses.

Exploration Potential

Substantial exploration potential exists in the immediate vicinity of the mineral zones within the interpreted mineral wireframes. An Exploration Target at a 0.75g/t Au cut-off of 9 to 20Mt at 1.8 to 2.2g/t for 0.5 to 1.0Moz is defined by using the results from the third estimation run and the unfilled blocks within the mineral wireframes.
The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, as there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of an expanded Mineral Resource.

Figure 3 : BVS Deep Exploration Potential, (colours = the 4 different mineral zones).

Future Work

Based on the Exploration Potential, additional targeted infill drilling programs in the BVS/BVC deposit are required to upgrade the resource estimates. It is anticipated that a limited amount of drilling will allow for a substantial expansion of the mineral resource albeit in the Inferred Category. Future improvements will include standardisation of the drillhole database and improved capture of relevant data which will assist
any upgrade in the classification of the estimates.

Additional Resource Estimates (2004 JORC Code & Guidelines)

The Woolgar Project also hosts further resource estimates published under the 2004 version of the JORC Code. These include resource estimates over epithermal and intrusion related styles of mineralisation, which differ in their characteristics from the mesothermal style mineralisation reported in this updated resource statement. There is insufficient information currently to determine whether these varying styles of mineralisation have compatible metallurgy, nor that further studies will determine this to be so and the Company makes no representation to this effect.
This information was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported.
The additional global resource estimates, excluding the previous and new resource estimates for the BVS area, are 25.4 MTonnes at 1.09 g/t gold for 795,400oz. of gold for a range of cut-offs between 0.4 and 1.0 g/t gold, see Table 1 in Appendix Two. For the complete JORC 2004 resource statement, please refer to "QUARTERLY ACTIVITY REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31st MARCH 2013" published 30th April 2013, available at www.stratmin.com.au

Strategic Exploration Planning

During the Quarter the company has been building on the recent internal data review discussed in the March 2015 Quarterly report, in order to plan future on- going exploration programs. This has effectively delineated a three stage plan based on:

1. A short to medium term target generation and definition program to follow up on recent results and technical advances by testing and comparing numerous target to better prioritise ongoing exploration expenditure, including:

a. Geological mapping, geochemical sampling and alteration vectoring;

b. Geophysical methods, such as IP and aeromagnetometry; and c. Targeted scout drilling with RC only.

2. A medium term program of prospective drilling of the targets defined in Phase 1, including:

a. Follow-up drill programs with RC, or Diamond if required; and b. Close-spaced geophysics to help maximise drilling efficiency.

3. A long-term resource definition program of the successful discoveries from Phase 2. This will

involve:

a. Detailed RC and Diamond drilling;

b. Metallurgical studies;

c. Geotechnical and engineering studies;

d. Environmental and Social Impact studies; and e. Commercial scoping studies.

The first phase of this work has now commenced.

QUARTERLY REPORT 30 June 2015

Preparation for 2015 Exploration Program

During the June Quarter, the Company planned and commissioned multiple programs for 2015. The most significant of these are the IP Geophysical survey and the RC drilling program. The IP survey has now commenced and the drilling program is scheduled to commence in the September Quarter.
IP Geophysical Survey
This program commenced in mid-July and will be completed prior to the RC drill program. The initial survey with limited IP lines over multiple prospects and styles of mineralisation is designed to first confirm the effectiveness of the survey technology to these styles and rock-types, and to potentially generate targets for drill testing.
The prospects and targets being tested are:

BVS: Testing depth and strike potential of the known mineralisation with two initial lines.

Mowbray, BVN, Ironclad and Mowbray NE: Testing the strength and potential of the Mowbray structure beneath the historic workings in the area of low-grade, shallow drill results, and testing the potential of the multiple sub-parallel structures locally through the area of flexure of the Woolgar Fault Zone.

Sandy Creek: Testing the depth potential beneath known shallow to mid depth resources and strike extension of several structures in the district.

Soapspar: Testing for depth potential beneath the known stacked mineral chutes.

Union and Perseverance: Testing the depth potential beneath significant historic workings in areas of low to moderate grade, shallow drill intercepts.

Drill Preparation

The 2015 drill program is expected to concentrate on resource infill and extension drilling on BVS and BVC, with a secondary aim of initial drill testing of significant IP anomalies in the Lower Camp.

QUARTERLY REPORT 31 MARCH 2015

Appendix One: Project Overview

Figure 4: Location map of Woolgar, showing the regional provinces of northeast Queensland and significant gold deposits. As can be seen, the Woolgar Goldfield corresponds to an inlier (erosional window) of the highly prospective and historically productive Etheridge Province exposed within the overlying generally unprospective sedimentary cover sequences.

The Woolgar Project consists of exploration permits and mining leases, located approximately mid-way between Townsville and Mt Isa, north Queensland. The Woolgar district is an area of basement rocks exposed within younger sedimentary cover. Woolgar was the location of a gold rush in the 1880's, with intermittent alluvial and small-scale, shallow, reef mining thereafter. The widespread historic workings and subsequent exploration work has identified this district as having strong potential to host significant gold mineralisation, see Figure 3.
The mineralisation is associated with the Woolgar Fault Zone (WFZ), a regional-scale structure trending east-northeast through the Woolgar project area that is also related to the historic Kidston mine to the north, see Figure 3. Strategic has identified epithermal vein deposits in the Sandy Creek, mesothermal veins along the WFZ and intrusive related mineralisation at Soapspar, as well as the alluvial gold associated with
these.

ABN 35 OOB 901 330

QUARTERLY REPORT 31 MARCH 2015

The current focus is on the mesothermal veins in the Lower Camp area, situated at the southern end of the extensive mesothermal vein field associated with the WFZ. Here, the WFZ undergoes localised flexure through an intersection with district-scale structures. This style of structural location is considered highly prospective due to its potential to create geologica! conditions favourable far the emplacement and deposition of mineralisation.
