QUARTERLY REPORT FOR PERIOD

ENDING 30 SEPTEMBER 2015

HIGHLIGHTS

Kalongwe Mining SA Joint Venture

The DRC Ministry of Mines has granted a Mining Licence that covers all of the Kalongwe Permit. The

Licence allows for the development of a mining operation at Kalongwe and is valid for an initial period of

thirty years.

A comprehensive metallurgical testwork programme has begun as part of the DFS. Initial results are very

encouraging and are consistent with other gravity separation plants in the DRC which produce a high

grade concentrate from the HMS plants with over +93% of the ore consisting of acid-soluble copper

minerals.,.

Regal-Ivanhoe Joint Venture

Ivanhoe Mines confirmed that four of the five permits that make up the joint venture have been extended

for a further five years. The application for the fifth permit is pending. A geological review of all available

technical data was completed. A number of significant copper anomalies were identified. Preparations are

being made for detailed field investigation.

Corporate

A General Meeting of Shareholders was held on 14 September 2015 in Perth, Australia. All resolutions

proposed were passed.

Mr Patrick Holywell was appointed as Chief Financial Officer and joint Company Secretary in October 2015.

Regal presented at the Sprott-Stansberry Natural Resources Symposium in Vancouver, Canada (27-31 July

2015).

MEDIA / ASX RELEASE

The Directors of Regal Resources Limited (ASX: RER) (“Regal” or “the Company”) are pleased to present

their Quarterly Activities Report for the period ended 30 September 2015.

Kalongwe High-Grade Copper-Cobalt Project (Katanga Province, DRC)

Overview

The Kalongwe deposit is the Company’s flagship Project. It is located in the Katanga Province of the

DRC and is situated towards the western end of the world-class Central African Copperbelt (Figure 1).

It hosts a near-surface oxide JORC resource of 302,000t contained copper and 42,000t contained

cobalt. (ASX: RER, 5 February 2015).

A Scoping Study (or “the Study”) has been completed to evaluate the viability of developing a stand-

alone mining operation at Kalongwe utilising an HMS plant to produce a high-grade copper/cobalt

concentrate. The Study was based on the Measured and Indicated categories of the JORC resource.

The results of the Study have highlighted the potential to fast-track the development of an open-pit

mining operation at Kalongwe.

Key Outcomes of the Scoping Study

Project Net Present Value (NPV @ 10% discount rate) Cu price $3/lb * $77.9 million

Project Internal Rate of Return (IRR) 81%

Payback 13 months

Capital Cost to Initial Production $38.9 million

Operating Costs (per pound (“lb”) Cu payable) $1.01 per lb

* Base Case is stated on a post-tax basis assuming 100% project at a copper price of $3.00/lb. All amounts

are in US dollars unless otherwise stated.

context of the CACB.

Definitive Feasibility Study

During the Quarter a number of major milestones were achieved which will contribute to the de-risking

of the development of the Project. The Minister of Mines granted a Mining Licence for Kalongwe and

recent metallurgical testwork results are expected to have a positive impact on financial parameters for

the DFS.

Granting of an Exploitation (Mining) Licence

Kalongwe Mining SA (“KM”) notified Regal that the DRC Minister of Mines signed an Arrete (decree)

granting a mining licence in accordance with the DRC Mining Code (2002) (“Mining Code”). The licence

covers the entire Kalongwe Permit area encompassing the Kalongwe deposit. It is valid for an initial

term of thirty years.

Under the provisions of the Mining Code the holder of a mining licence has the exclusive right to

conduct exploration, development, construction and mining activities for those minerals for which the

permit is granted. It also allows its holder to build the installations and infrastructure required for

mining exploitation, use the water and forestry resources inside the mining perimeter, process,

transport and market the minerals. The licence holder will be required to transfer a 5% interest in the

project to the DRC State.

MEDIA / ASX RELEASE

Metallurgical Testwork

Miller Metallurgical Services has been retained to undertake a Phase 2 metallurgical test programme

for the Kalongwe Project in the DRC. The programme is designed to undertake further investigation on

the densitometry and leaching characteristics of the oxide mineralisation of the Kalongwe Deposit.

The programme will include confirmatory heavy liquid testing on coarser sized core material to provide

variability testing on the HMS process. Preliminary acid leaching tests will be conducted to assess the

potential to leach the ore using either agitation or heap leaching methods.

The testwork is being undertaken by ALS Metallurgical Laboratory in Perth. Three sample composites

were prepared from large diameter diamond drill core samples. The composition of each of the

composite samples reflects one of the three main periods over the LOM (life of mine) when potentially

different ore and grade types will be mined. The temporal pattern of these qualities was generated

from the Scoping Study mine schedule on a monthly basis.

Initial results to date are very encouraging and are consistent with other gravity separation plants in the

DRC which produce a high grade concentrate from the HMS and a lower grade concentrate from the

spiral plant.

The scrubbing tests show only small increases of 3% to 4% in the fines fraction compared to the

simpler wet screening tests. This is confirmation that a scrubber is not required for the project.

The sequential assay of the composites shows that 93% of composite 1 is acid soluble while +95% of

composites 2 & 3 are acid soluble. There appear to be no deleterious species in the ore that might

impact its sale to leaching or smelting operations.

Regal-Ivanhoe Joint Venture (Fold and Thrust Belt Joint Venture / “FTBJV”)

Overview

The Company has entered into a JV agreement with Ivanhoe Mines to acquire up to a 98% interest in a

package of highly prospective tenements, covering an area of approximately 350 sq. km., located near

the western end of the Central African Copperbelt in Katanga Province, DRC, (Figure 3), (ASX: RER, 22

April).

The JV area contains regional scale anticlinal folds, faults and thrust structures. These are considered to

offer high-quality exploration targets as they can present windows onto the mineralised rocks of the

Lower Roan Mine Series (Figure 3).

Figure 4: District-scale geological map of the FTBJV area showing prospects by target-type

(purple = Kalongwe-type; brown = Kamoa-type).

During the Quarter the Company completed a review of the historic Ivanhoe project database. The

review included an assessment of five copper-mineralised prospects previously identified by Ivanhoe

and also several other target/follow-up areas beyond those identified by Ivanhoe. Additionally, it

showed that all target areas are under-explored and considered to be highly prospective.

The five prospects identified for immediate follow-up are:

• Kasangasi Prospect: (~8 DD holes), 5m at 4.9% Cu, artisanal pit exploiting Cu,

mineralisation in structure at Ki.1/2 contact; intersection of regional structure,

• Mukansa Prospect: (artisanal pit), diapir structure with multiple R2 fragments, >10

Mines Series fragments, 6% Co in rock chip sample; pitting, sampling, mapping;

• Monwezi West Prospects: (immediately southwest of Kalongwe), previous diamond

drilling as part of Kalongwe exploration drilling, good auger and trench results;

includes three (3) separate prospects, Monwezi 2, 3, 7; significant geochemical

anomalies, multiple fragments of Mines Series,

• Kambundji East Prospect: located NE of Kalongwe property; Mines Series fragments

in diapir structure; artisanal pits; high rock chip results 4.8% Cu, and

• Mamba Prospects: (near Kolwezi) diapir structure, large Nguba and Mines Series

fragments, 2-3 km; 17 DD holes for ~4,300 m; mapping; mineralisation intersected;

DMBA_007 intersected mineralisation; large area and significant scope for further

testing mainly geophysical targets.

Most of the exploration targets within the project area occur in settings that are akin to mineralisation

at Kalongwe. However, there is also potential for discovery of copper mineralisation of the “Kamoa-

type” in the post-Roan strata.

Copper mineralisation at the Monwezi Prospects, including the Mukansa Prospects, are associated with

Lower Roan rock fragments in the core of a regional anticline that extends southwest from Kalongwe.

Field investigations on the Kambundji East and Monwezi Prospects commenced in the last Quarter. The

Company is planning to undertake a more extensive and detailed programme of geo-chemical

sampling and mapping at the end of the wet season.

* Regal terminated the Regal SK joint venture in December 2014 in accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreement. Regal has had no formal involvement in the management

of the Regal SK JV since December 2014. Regal has recently been advised that the transfer of shares has been lodged and Regal therefore no longer owns any shares in the joint venture.

** RER held control of Regal SK SPRL, whereby it held a 50% interest in the issued capital of Regal SPRL.
