QUARTERLY REPORT ON ACTIVITIES July to September 2014

Highlights

 Expenditure decreased to $0.1 million in the Quarter which is in line with the new strategy and shareholder expectations

 Tax situation with respect to possible sale or distribution of Copper Strike's Syrah

shares are now much better understood.

Overview

Copper Strike has received taxation advice from Grant Thornton in relation to a number of aspects of its holding of the shares that it owns in Syrah Resources Limited. The advice from Grant Thornton looked at the potential taxation consequences of a sale, as well as an in-specie distribution to the Company's shareholders of the Syrah shares. Either way, the disposal of the Syrah shares will constitute a Capital Gains Tax event for Copper Strike, and the consequences will vary depending on each shareholder's tax profile. More detail was provided in the 30 October ASX Release by Copper Strike. An ATO ruling on the tax situation is due before the end of calendar 2014.

Copper Strike currently has no exploration interests and is not currently pursuing any project generation work.

Administration

Expenditure for the Quarter was $0.1 million and as of 30 September 2014, Copper

Strike had $1.1 million in the bank.
