• Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding targets, estimates and assumptions in respect of copper, gold, silver and zinc or other metal production and prices, operating costs and results, capital expenditures, mineral reserves and mineral resources and anticipated grades and recovery rates. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions related to future business, economic, market, political, social, and other conditions that while considered reasonable by Thunderstruck, are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies. Many known and unknown factors could cause actual events or results to differ materially from estimated or anticipated events or results reflected in such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to: operating risks; uninsurable risks; uncertainties inherent in ore reserve and resource estimates: dependence on third party smelting facilities; environmental regulation and liability; currency risks; effects of inflation on results of operations; factors relating to title to properties; native landowner issues; dependence on key personnel; and future share price volatility and also include unanticipated and unusual events, many of which are beyond Thunderstruck's ability to control or predict.

Why Fiji?Why Fiji?
• Located along the highly-prospective “Ring of Fire”• Significant mineral deposits, such as Vatukoula (the formerly
producing Emperor Gold mine) and Namosi (copper-gold porphyry deposit).
• Potential for both economic copper and zinc-rich deposits & large gold and copper-gold porphyry deposits.
• Offering reasonable royalty (2.5% of net profits) and taxation structures (17% corporate tax).
• Close to Asian markets • 100% foreign ownership allowed.• Fiji has ongoing policy of allowing foreign-owned companies to
repatriate profits. • Security of mining tenure

Thunderstruck’s Mineral ProspectsThunderstruck’s Mineral Prospects

• High Grade VMS Cu-Zn; limited drilling, open along strike & down dip
• Multiple Zinc & Copper zones• Anglo American stopped
exploration in late 1970’s due to very low zinc prices ($0.30/lb) compared to $1.00/lb now. Focused on the large low grade Namosi Cu-Au porphyry
• Also a virgin high grade gold prospect
• And a copper-gold porphyry

Wainaleka HighlightsWainaleka Highlights
• Two stacked mineralized zones:o High grade central zinc zoneo Lower and adjacent copper zone
• Wainaleka high grade zinc basically drilled only to 50 meters depth• Both zones are wide open• Only a few meters of surface oxidation maximizing tonnage for
flotation.• Potential for open pit
