Title: Annual report for EL 8479 Aperta East for the period 1 May 2008 to 30 April 2009

Abstract: This is the annual report on EL 8479 for the period 1st May 2008 to 30th April 2009. No field exploration was carried out over the tenement during the reporting period. It is important for ATH to ensure that there is a reasonable amount of exploration land to include with the TMJV/Groundrush Mining Leases as a saleable package. If we reduce the ATH landholdings in the vicinity of the TMJV/Groundrush Mining Leases and processing infrastructure, the likelihood of securing a sale to an established Junior Mining Company or Initial Public Offerings may be diminished. In addition, all of the area covered by the project area is considered prospective for gold mineralisation similar to the Tanami, Twin Bonanza, Old Pirate & Groundrush deposits and any purchaser will require time to effectively evaluate the exploration potential of the area. Further to our recent discussions with the Department of Regional Development, Primary Industries, Fisheries and Resources, Newmont Australia Limited (Newmont) anticipates recommencing the divestment of the ATH exploration tenements and TMJV/Groundrush mining leases in the second half of 2009 subject to an improvement in market conditions. During 2009 Newmont is planning to continue with its environmental auditing of ATH tenements to ensure the success of previous rehabilitation of exploration disturbances.
