    Councilgritter, i refer you to this ASX release, 22 August 2005:

    "Siana Gold Project interest increased,
    a substantial new JV partner and strategic alliance
    with First Metro, the Philippines largest investment bank.
    Red 5 has increased its beneficial interest in the Siana Gold Project
    from 80 percent to 90 percent.
    Merrill Crowe Corporation, a Philippine mining investment company,
    has purchased the JCG Resources’ 20 percent interest in Siana
    and on-sold, under pre-emptive rights, a 10 percent interest to Red 5.
    The Red 5 purchase consideration to Merrill Crowe is satisfied by the
    issue of 16,829,865 million Red 5 shares for a deemed value
    of US$1.65 million. Merrill Crowe intends to retain approximately
    5.6 million shares, equivalent to 2.1% of the expanded Red 5 issued
    capital, with the balance to be on-sold.
    NM Rothschild & Sons (Australia) Limited (appointed financial adviser and
    arranger for the Siana Project in December 2004) has agreed with Merrill Crowe
    to purchase 3.4 million shares and AngloGold Ashanti Australia Limited
    (Red 5’s largest shareholder and strategic exploration partner) has agreed with
    Merrill Crowe to purchase a further 6.8 million shares.
    The Chairman of Directors and controlling shareholder of Merrill Crowe
    is Mr Jerry Angping, the President of Angping Securities, a leading
    stockbroker on the Philippine Stock Exchange. He is also the Vice Chairman
    of First Metro Investment Corporation, the investment banking subsidiary of
    Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company of the Philippines, the largest banking
    organisation in the Philippines.
    The benefits of the transaction to Red 5 include: increased equity in Siana
    Gold Project, a superior credentialed partner in Merrill Crowe, long term
    access to land holdings covering the mine site footprint and Merrill Crowe
    as joint venture partner in the Mapawa MPSA application.
    Red 5 and First Metro Investment Corporation have agreed to form a strategic
    alliance to secure mutual benefits in relation to their respective business
    activities in the Philippines. Under this alliance, First Metro will act as advisor
    to Red 5 in the identification of project acquisition opportunities in the
    Philippines and to provide, on an as required basis, corporate advice,
    including capital raisings involving a Philippine nexus.
    Pursuant to this alliance First Metro has been requested to advise and assist
    in investigating the merits of Red 5 securing the (dual) listing of its securities
    on the Philippine Stock Exchange.
    The increase in Siana equity, the introduction of a new
    investment partner and the strategic alliance with the
    Philippines’ largest investment bank are substantive
    advances to complement the pre-feasibility study
    due for Board review next month.
    Greg Edwards, Managing Director
    22 August 2005...."
