    Gold: Advanced Project in Indonesia will attempt to bring up to Jorc this year 700,000oz - 1miloz, recent drilling results have been very good but no response from market, 70km from OXR who would be watching ORP closely with current gold prices.


    Uranium: recently aquired 3,800 sqkm of Uranium tenemants in Malawi with 1 lease 20km away from PDN to the south at Kayelekera Deposit. No response from market.


    Coal: According to the quartely ORP is in advanced negotiation of advanced coal opportunities in Indonesia to quickly advance from exploration to "production":


    "2.3 PROJECT EVALUATION
    The Company is continuing to pursue a number of advanced coal opportunities in Indonesia, particularly in
    Kalimantan East Kalimantan has become a major world producer of coal in the past 10 years and Oropa is
    utilising its considerable knowledge of Indonesia to acquire tenements with the potential to quickly advance
    from exploration to production.
    Negotiations are currently well advanced on a group of KPs located in East Kalimantan in relatively close
    proximity to existing infrastructure. If these negotiations are successful, Oropa will undertake site visits and
    complete legal due diligence as a prelude to acquiring an interest in these leases.
    From Oropa�s recent experience, the attrition rate on these evaluations is relatively high and a thorough due
    diligence and technical appraisal is imperative, prior to entering into any formal commitments to joint venture, or
    farmin into these projects. However, the rewards are considered to be worthwhile and these evaluation processes
    continue."

    2. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
    2.1 INDONESIA
    Pungkut Gold Project, Sumatra (75%)
    A major resource extension drilling program completed during the Quarter generated encouraging results at the
    Sihayo 1 North deposit, prompting Oropa to undertake a revised resource calculation which is scheduled to
    commence in February 2008. Once this revised resource estimate is completed, Oropa intends to undertake to a
    mining scoping study on the combined resources at Sihayo 1 North and Sambung with a view to advancing the
    Pungkut Project to the development stage.
    The Company�s exploration focus has now moved to the Hutabargot Julu prospect, centred approximately 6
    km south-east of Sambung, where drilling is currently underway targeting parallel sets of epithermal quartz veins
    interpreted to be up to 3km in length.

    Sihayo 1 North
    A drilling program was completed during the Quarter to the west of the Sihayo 1 North Inferred Resource
    targeting high grade outcropping jasperoid. This program has returned significant gold intersections from most
    holes drilled, which are summarised in Table 1 and include:
    SHDD096: 17.55m @ 1.82 g/t Au from surface
    SHDD097: 6m @ 3.66 g/t Au from 1m
    13m @ 1.53 g/t Au from 15m
    SHDD098: 6m @ 2.15 g/t Au from surface
    SHDD100: 7m @ 1.33 g/t Au from surface
    SHDD101: 3m @ 2.59 g/t Au from 7m
    __________________________________________________________________________________

    SHDD103: 22m @ 3.96 g/t Au from surface
    6m @ 1.45 g/t Au from 25m
    SHDD104: 22.75m @ 4.84 g/t Au from 41m
    SHDD105: 2m @ 6.38 g/t Au from 2m
    The Sihayo 1 North and the nearby Sambung prospects are currently estimated to contain a total of 8.2 Mt @ 2.7 g/t
    Au for 710,000 oz Au. Based on the encouraging results returned from the recent drilling, the Company considers
    that there is strong potential to add to these inferred resource ounces. A mining Scoping Study will be required to
    fully evaluate the economic potential of the Pungkut Project, particularly taking into account the current gold
    prices. Oropa is currently evaluating options to commission this study.
    In preparation for the Scoping Study, the Sihayo 1 North resource will be recalculated to reflect the additional
    mineralisation encountered in close proximity to the current resource outline (7.1Mt @ 2.7 g/t Au for 610,000 oz
    Au), which was last calculated in early 2004.
    All drill collars are currently being surveyed, there has been a fresh geological interpretation and updating and
    improvements to the existing Sihayo 1 North digital database. The upgraded database and quality controls are
    currently being validated, and a digital terrain model (DTM) is being created for the Sihayo area. Resource
    modelling, which is scheduled to commence late in February, has been contracted to a specialist independent
    firm.

    Figure 2: Sihayo 1 North drill location plan
    Test pits, which were previously dug to the north-west of the existing resource boundary to assist with the
    planning of the recent drilling program, also returned some positive results. These test pits confirm the presence
    of extensive regolith gold throughout this area, which must now be considered as a potential drill target,
    because it may overlie further concealed jasperoid. Figure 3 shows the locations of these test pits in relation to
    the drill holes; best results include:
    Test Pit B: 1m @ 4.43 g/t Au from surface
    Test Pit H: 4m @ 3.07 g/t Au from 1m,

    Figure 3: Sihayo 1 North Test Pit Locations
    Hutabargot Julu
    Hutabargot Julu is located at the south-eastern end of the Sihayo-Sambung gold trend (Figure 1). Epithermal
    veining occurs in Miocene volcanics which overlie Permian sedimentary-volcanic basement. The presence of
    gold mineralisation in jasperoid at the nearby Dolok prospect, which lies to the north in an erosion window of
    underlying Permian rocks, demonstrates the continuity from Permian to Miocene and jasperoid to epithermal
    veins. The extent and thickness of veining indicates a very large hydrothermal system, both in terms of strike
    length and depth.
    Hutabargot Julu was selected as an exploration priority due to the gold mineralisation potential of sub-parallel
    north-south striking epithermal quartz vein zones up to 3km in length, as well as its proximity to Sihayo and
    Sambung on the same ridge, enhancing its strategic value as a potential supplementary resource for a centrally
    located treatment plant. Exploratory diamond drilling commenced during the December Quarter.
    The vein system is interpreted as being mid-sulphidation epithermal, with upper level exposure interpreted from
    predominantly chalcedonic quartz textures observed in outcrops and exposures in shallow historic Dutch
    exploration tunnels. The system is interpreted to be preserved in almost its entirety, with potential for substantial
    high-grade gold accumulation(s) at depth. Epithermal quartz vein systems require careful and systematic
    exploration, as barren or low grade quartz veins often overlie economic grade gold mineralisation which is
    typically located in high grade shoots separated by low grade veining along strike.
    Oropa has committed to a comprehensive drilling program to test the vein systems at depth to evaluate their full
    potential. This includes near surface drilling beneath outcropping veins to determine their strike orientation and
    dip to facilitate drill targeting for following up of the structures at depth.
    __________________________________________________________________________________
    7 www.oropa.com.au
    At this early stage, most of the drilling has been focussed on the Sarahan vein, which has produced the most
    consistent surface and adit sampling results, including numerous 1-2 g/t Au rock and channel chip samples,
    together with some higher grade results up to 27.1 g/t Au. However, from work undertaken to date, it appears
    that this vein is not continuously mineralised.
    The first phase of the program has shown that the Sarahan vein dips consistently at around 60� to the west, with a
    strike dip of 170�, and vein-zone thickness of 2-12 metres. Veining consists of massive silicification, dogstooth
    quartz and calcite veining, and minor adularia. A halo of hydrothermal brecciation flooded with silica and quartz
    stockwork is common in wallrock surrounding the veins. Drilling to date has only explored to depths similar to
    those of the deepest Dutch exploration adits. Additional deeper holes such as HUTDD010 (in progress) are
    testing nearly 100 metres vertically down-dip, probing for bonanza grade mineralisation. All seven drill holes
    from which results are available have intersected reportable gold mineralisation, including:
    HUTDD001: 6m @ 2.07 g/t Au from 16m
    HUTDD002: 2m @ 2.67 g/t Au from 20m
    HUTDD004: 3m @ 2.66 g/t Au from 48m
    1m @ 8.61 g/t Au from 64m
    HUTDD007: 5m @ 2.12 g/t Au from 23m
    including 1m @ 5.81 g/t Au from 25m
    The second rig from Sihayo 1 North has recently commenced drilling at the Sunday vein, where three drill holes
    are planned to test the vein orientation and for continuity of mineralisation beneath mineralised outcrop, which
    grades up to 3.83 g/t Au in rock chip samples.
    __________________________________________________________________________________
    8 www.oropa.com.au
    Figure 4: Hutabargot Julu Drill Location Plan
    Concurrently with drilling, surface work for the area includes continued mapping and sampling of the extensive
    Dutch exploration adits in the Sunday vein area, along with a soil auger grid and surface rock-chip sampling
    program in the Sihorbo vein area to identify the strongest geochemical anomalism prior to drill target selection.
    Recent outcrop sampling of newly discovered vein sets has returned some exciting results, including:
    Sarahan Creek 400m west and sub-parallel to Sarahan Vein:-
    � 61.0 g/t Au & 149 g/t Ag from 1m wide silicified breccia with pyrite and chalcopyrite
    � 2.18 g/t Au in adjacent vuggy quartz vein with manganese
    Siborok Creek east of Sarahan Vein:-
    � 7.18 g/t Au & 216 g/t Ag from a 2m quartz vein breccia with trace sphalerite, galena and chalcopyrite

    2.2 MALAWI
    Malawi, located in south-eastern Africa, is an emerging world region for uranium exploration and mining. In a
    country which is substantially under-explored, two uranium deposits are currently being developed. Paladin Energy
    Ltd�s (�Paladin�) Kayelekera uranium project, in the north of the country, is currently at an advanced stages of
    construction for 3.3 Mlbs U3O8 per annum production with a 7-year mine life, while Globe Uranium Ltd (�Globe�)
    is conducting a scoping study scheduled for completion in Q2 2008 for its Kanyika uranium-niobium-tantalumzirconium
    deposit in central Malawi.
    Oropa�s wholly owned subsidiary, Oropa Exploration Pty Ltd (�OEPL�), has now been granted 100% ownership of
    three Exclusive Prospecting Licences (�EPLs�) for uranium and other minerals covering the Mzimba Northwest,
    Chitunde, and Chizani project areas. Additionally, OEPL has entered into joint ventures for a 90% interest in the
    mineral rights for uranium and other minerals (excluding coal) in two contiguous EPLs to the north of Kayelekera
    with local EPL holders who were previously licensed to explore for coal. OEPL has established an office and transit
    base in Lilongwe and stocked necessary field supplies for ongoing exploration campaigns.
    A regional geochemical survey was initiated in November 2007 over the areas of Mzimba Northwest and Chitunde
    and continued through until the commencement of the wet season in December. Results from the samples collected
    from the two project areas are being correlated and interpreted, with an announcement to be made in early February.
    During the past six months, Oropa, via OEPL has become the holder of a substantial and diverse exploration
    tenement portfolio (in excess of 3,800km2) in Malawi, which it intends to actively explore during 2008 and over the
    coming years. Field activities are scheduled to resume in late March.
    __________________________________________________________________________________
    11 www.oropa.com.au
    Mzimba Northwest Project (100%)
    Mzimba Northwest comprises EPL0211/2007, covering an area of 2,169km2, and is situated in the north-central
    portion of Malawi.
    Immediately after acquiring the EPL, Oropa commissioned two independent interpretive studies to identify and
    prioritize targets for the initial sampling programs. The first study, conducted by Southern Geoscience
    Consultants, considered data available from a country-wide airborne radiometric uranium and magnetic
    geophysical survey flown in 1984/85 by Hunting Geology and Geophysics Ltd based at the time in the United
    Kingdom. The second study, completed by Mackay and Schnellmann Pty Ltd, interpreted Landsat satellite
    imagery with the aid of Malawian Geological Survey geological maps and bulletins, combined with the Hunting
    airborne geophysical survey, to produce a geological interpretation of the project area.
    The combined results from these interpretive studies have outlined targets for Karroo sediments with potential
    for �roll front� style uranium mineralisation, similar to that at Paladin�s Kayelekara project; Mafingi quartzites
    for unconformity style uranium mineralisation; and circular anomalies potentially associated with intrusives and
    uranium-niobium-tantalum mineralisation, such as that at Globe�s Kanyika project.
    Last November, OEPL commenced a ground geochemical survey of selected targets identified in the interpretive
    studies. Due to the lack of any previous systematic exploration of the project area, regional sampling programs,
    together with ground radiometrics, will need to be completed before follow up exploration is conducted.
    Stream sediment sampling of fine fractions at creek junctions, with panned concentrate samples at major sites is
    the chosen exploration method, with samples to be assayed for uranium plus 28 other elements to evaluate the
    potential for a broad suite of other minerals. Upon the completion of these sampling programs, the targets will be
    re-rated according to their mineral potential for more advanced exploration.
    Sampling focussed in the Emoneni district in the west of the block where a north-south striking ridge coincident
    with uranium radiometric anomalies has been interpreted to be caused by Mafingi quartzites. These quartzites,
    formed from the erosion of the basement sediments during the Proterozoic era, filled valleys, basins and other
    topographic low areas. Subsequently, the entire Proterozoic sequence has experienced deformation and high
    grade metamorphism. The contact between the quartzites and gneiss is unconformable, and has been associated
    with uranium mineralisation. Sixty eight stream sediment samples, 14 panned concentrate samples, and 26 rock
    chip samples were collected to complete the initial exploration program for this target area.
    Chitunde Project (100%)
    The Chitunde project (EPL0212/2007 covering an area of 196km2 is situated some 86 km west-north-west of
    Lilongwe and is accessible in most parts by sealed roads. The target area is a coincident airborne radiometric
    anomaly over an outcropping hill of quartz-syenite. Sampling focused on rock chip sampling, spectrometer
    readings and stream sediment samplings from creeks radiating from the hill. 58 rock chip samples were
    collected, along with 10 stream sediment samples.
    Ngana and Ngana East Projects (90%)
    Ngana and Ngana East are the subject of two separate Memorandum of Understandings (�MOU�) with two local
    EPL holders who hold the mineral rights for coal exploration and development. Substantial coal occurrences are
    thought to exist in the area, although no systematic coal exploration has been completed to date. Ngana and
    Ngana East are located in the far north of the country, with their northern boundaries coincident with the
    Tanzanian border. The two prospects are in a strategic location, containing basins of Karroo sediments, with the
    nearest mapped Karroo occurrence being located some 20km to the south at Kayelekera.
    Uranium can be hosted in stratabound deposits in the Karroo sediments, particularly where mobile uranium is
    trapped by carbonaceous mudstone or sandstone layers.
    __________________________________________________________________________________
    12 www.oropa.com.au
    Brief site inspections of both locations were undertaken as part of the MOU agreements. Formal Shareholders
    Agreements are currently being prepared for new Malawian joint venture companies to be incorporated prior to
    field activities, which are scheduled to commence in late March.
    Chizani Project (100%)
    The Chizani project (EPL0223/2007, with an area of 1,283 km2) was the third tenement selected by OEPL due to
    the area covering a major deformation zone, which is often an environment where mineralisation occurs. The
    area is geologically diverse, and contains many uranium radiometric anomalies. Globe�s multi-element uraniumniobium-
    tantalum-zirconium Kanyika project borders Chizani�s southern boundary. According to recent ASX
    announcements, Globe is currently undertaking a scoping study of the Milenje Zone at Kanyika which is
    scheduled for completion in Q2, 2008. Considering that Globe commenced field programs as recent as July
    2006 generated from a radiometric anomaly demonstrates the potential of the area.
    The granting of Chizani by the Malawian government in mid-December 2007 was too late for any exploration to
    be undertaken prior to the onset of the wet season. Similar interpretative studies as completed for Mzimba
    Northwest and Chitunde are being initiated to permit OEPL to commence stream geochemical surveys early in
    the coming field season.

    1 The quarterly report provides a basis for informing the market how the entity�s activities have
    been financed for the past quarter and the effect on its cash position. An entity wanting to disclose
    additional information is encouraged to do so, in a note or notes attached to this report.
    2 The �Nature of interest� (items 6.1 and 6.2) includes options in respect of interests in mining
    tenements acquired, exercised or lapsed during the reporting period. If the entity is involved in a joint
    venture agreement and there are conditions precedent which will change its percentage interest in a
    mining tenement, it should disclose the change of percentage interest and conditions precedent in the list
    required for items 6.1 and 6.2.
    3 Issued and quoted securities The issue price and amount paid up is not required in items 7.1
    and 7.3 for fully paid securities.
