Statements and material contained in this Presentation, particularly those regarding possible or assumed future performance, production

levels or rates, resources or potential growth of Primary Gold Limited (PGO), industry growth or other trend projections are, or may be,

forward looking statements. Such statements relate to future events and expectations and, as such, involve known and unknown risks and

uncertainties. Although PGO believes that the expectations contained in any forward looking statements in this presentation are, as at the

date of this presentation, made on a reasonable basis, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results and the

timing of such results may differ materially from those herein described. Factors which may impact on future performance and cause actual

results to differ materially from those contained in forward looking statements include, without limitation, changes in commodity prices,

exchange rates, PGO’s access to capital and general and market conditions.

This presentation may describe Measured, Indicated and/or Inferred Resources. Inferred Resources have a greater amount of uncertainty as

to their existence and greater uncertainty as to their economic feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of any Inferred Resource

will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Exploration is an inherently risky proposition and investors are advised that most exploration

projects fail to identify economic resources. The Company has at present not confirmed the economic viability of any resources at the project.

The company plans further drilling programs and studies with the objective of confirmation of any deposits and ultimately completing a

feasibility study to demonstrate the economics of the resources.

Company Issue Situation Solution

Carpentaria

Gold P/L (1991)Geotechnical

Following very successful open pit,

underground decline access commenced

but encountered difficult ground

associated with a known fault zone on

eastern side of orebody.

Decline has since been rehabilitated by

subsequent operators & is now useable.

Second decline access established within

areas of good ground conditions,

avoiding the fault zones.

Rension Cons.

Mines Ltd

(2007)

Flooding

Flood prevention strategy based on max.

monthly rainfall average, however, mine

received monthly quota in 24 hours.

Pumping capacity too small, mine floods

and is eventually sold.

Primary’s strategy based on max. 24

hour average, consequently pumping

capacity is 10 times that of Renison.

GBS &

Crocodile Gold,

(‘08-10)

Poor ore

grades

Decline was heading to higher grade ore,

but majority of mining situated in lower

grade zone. Mining method resulted in

excessive dilution (≈ 200%). Both

contribute to lower than planned grades.

Primary to specifically target higher grade

zones. Also use different mining method

to control dilution (split-face firing of ore &

waste separately).

All

Low

metallurgical

recovery

Historically recoveries as low as 75%.

Increases possible with fine grinding, but

not utilised by past operators. Similarly,

significant component of gravity gold, but

presently no gravity circuit.

Install fine grinding, gravity circuit,

intense leach reactor, additional floatation

and tankage, partial tails bypass.

Planned recoveries 89.6%, but test-work

shows potential for +92%.

Several episodes of underground mining, various technical challenges

Exploration Target – Cautionary

Statements

13

All references to Exploration Targets are made with the following clarifications & disclosures in

accordance with JORC 2012 clauses 17, 18, 19:

Potential quantities and grades are conceptual in nature, that there has been insufficient

exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and that it is uncertain if further exploration will

result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.

Targets are based on proposed exploration drilling programmes.

The Company intends to commence these proposed drilling programmes within 2 years.

Exploration activity will aim to test the validity of geological models.

Exploration Targets based on a geological model which incorporates:

‒ Style of mineralisation similar to existing Resource, i.e. structurally controlled, quartz vein

hosted, gold deposit.

‒ Approximations of tonnes and grade assumes grades, dimensions and orientation similar

to those estimated for Toms Gully Resource.

‒ Existing exploration data which indicates the potential for repetitions and extensions to the

Resource.

Minimal Exploration drilling activities completed to date :

‒ Target 1 located down dip of current Resource – only 2 drill holes, one of which intersected

anomalous gold mineralisation, the other drilled outside the target zone (see slide 10 for

drill details),

‒ Target 2 located in footwall of current Resource – only 3 drill holes, one intersected

anomalous gold mineralisation, one not deep enough, one not sampled (see slide 10 for

drill details).

See slide 30 for Competent Persons Statement .

Note: Primary confirms that all the material

derived from a production target, in the

continue to apply and have not materially

changed.

resources or that the production target itself

Current Resource 30Mt at 0.9g/t for 875k ounces

Large-scale mineralised system of close-spaced, strataform, quartz-sulphide veins.

2012 Scoping Study supports the potential for large-scale, low strip, open cut, mining operation likely production

costs below $A1,100/oz

Remains open at depth and along strike

Shallow drill intercepts illustrate further oxide potential: 36m at 1.27g/t (from 33m) in RRC260, and 24m at
