    Drilling Results
    West Australian Metals Ltd (WME) is pleased to report further significant uranium assay results from
    its first drill programme completed over the Marenica Uranium Project, Namibia, late-April 2007
    (Figure 1). The company is still waiting on results for about one-third of the holes sent for assay.
    The latest assay results received include a thick and relatively high grade intersection (up to 0.16%
    U3O8) in a covered section of the palaeo-drainage system over which little historic drilling was
    conducted.
    Two areas totalling 60 sq.km. are being covered by track etch (alpha) cups to detect radon gas
    seepage from any uranium mineralisation deeper down in areas masked by recent alluvial sands.
    Significant results received include:
    Hole MAR-013 5 metres averaging 621ppm U3O8 (7-12 metres)
    Hole MAR-097 11 metres averaging 409ppm U3O8 (28-39 metres) including 1m at 1632ppm U3O8
    Hole MAR-099 3 metres averaging 376ppm U3O8 (26-29 metres)
    Hole MAR-046 5 metres averaging 249ppm U3O8 (1-6 metres)
    The locations of drill holes for which further results have been received and reported herein are
    shown in Figures 2 and 3 with holes reporting assays greater than 100 ppm U3O8 listed in Table1.
    Initial drill results from this programme were reported to the ASX on 31 May 2007.
    Significantly, the most promising results received were from a north-south line of 180 metre spaced
    holes extending a distance of 2 kilometres south of Mineralised Area 3 (Figure 3). This
    reconnaissance profile tested for palaeo-channel related mineralisation in an area covered by recent
    alluvium and where very little historic drilling had been conducted by Gold Fields of South Africa.
    Intersections along this drill profile included 11 metres averaging 409ppm U3O8 between 28-39
    metres including a 1 metre interval assaying 1,632ppm (0.16%) U3O8 (Hole MAR-097, Figure 3). An
    intersection of 3 metres averaging 376ppm U3O8 (26-29 metres) was also recorded in hole MAR-099
    a further 360 metres south. It is clear that drill testing in this area intersected a broad palaeo-drainage
    channel system with rapidly changing basement topography masked by recent alluvial sheet wash.
    Given the discovery of this mineralisation, a 5 sq.km area centred around this traverse has been
    covered by track etch (alpha) cups to detect radon gas seepage from any uranium mineralisation
    deeper down (see Figure 3). The results of this survey will also assist in planning future drill holes in
    this area (see also section below).

    All samples assayed were collected over one metre drill intervals with uranium analyses conducted by
    SGS Lakefield and Genalysis laboratories using the pressed powder XRF technique.
    Some of the holes drilled during the programme were not assayed as testing of samples with a
    hand held scintillometer during the drilling operations indicated only background, or near
    background, activity. All holes were subsequently down-hole logged with a gamma spectral
    probe with final logs still to be received and evaluated.
    Results for around one-third of the holes sent for assay are still to be received from the laboratories
    which, as stated in the 31 May ASX announcement, are under considerable work loads. These delays
    have been further compounded by disruptions caused by the instillation of new equipment. The latter
    has prompted pulped samples to be re-directed to Australia for assay.
    Excluding holes located along the north-south profile discussed above, the remaining reported
    holes tested basement rocks containing, in places, secondary uranium mineralisation in weathered
    and fractured zones, calcreted sediments along interpreted palaeo-drainage systems and a broad
    regional radiometric anomaly near the centre of the licence, with some holes also designed to
    validate historic drill data.

    Of significance are results for holes MAR-013 and 014 drilled on the western side of Mineralised
    Area 3 from which area other promising results from relatively wide spaced holes were reported to
    the ASX on 31 May 2007. Hole MAR-013 reported 5 metres averaging 621ppm U3O8 (7-12 metres).
    Other previously reported results from this area have included 4 metres averaging 608ppm U3O8 (4-8
    metres), 9 metres averaging 488ppm U3O8 (0-9 metres) and 6 metres averaging 467ppm U3O8 (0-6
    metres), including 1m at 1033ppm or 1.03% U3O8.

    Table 1: Significant Drill Results - Intervals ¡Ý100ppm U3O8
    An initial reconnaissance programme consisting of widely spaced vertical holes 15 to 50 metres
    deep was drilled along four lines west of Mineralised Area 4, and outside the historic resource
    area defined by Gold Fields. The programme was designed to test a broad low order regional
    radiometric anomaly and to better define parts of the main palaeo-drainage channel obscured by
    recent alluvium. Holes spacings were 180 to 360 metres, with drill profiles up to 7.5 km apart.
    - 5 -
    While no significant mineralisation was recorded in this initial programme, many of the holes
    failed to penetrate basement and therefore did not adequately test the palaeo-channel for
    secondary mineralisation, or the underlying basement for primary mineralisation. The results
    however have highlighted that the main paleao-channel in this part of the licence exceeds 50
    metres depth and follows a major structure. Further evaluation of the main palaeo-channel which
    exceeds 30 km in strike length is being conducted including down-hole gamma probing of
    historic holes identified in the area. An assessment of the prospectivity of this part of the licence
    for secondary mineralisation will be reported once additional data has been received and
    evaluated.
    Figure 2 ¨C Locations of Reported Drill Holes ¨C Central Sector, EPL3287.
    Drilling results received to date indicate at least three styles of secondary uranium mineralisation
    to be present in the project area.
    1. Relatively thin, shallow (generally less than 5 metre below surface) uranium mineralisation in
    calcreted and/or gypcreted recent (alluvial) sheet wash composed mostly of gritty sand. This
    mineralisation is the cause of a large number of radiometric anomalies in the area and constitutes
    significant uranium deposits in the immediate region of the project.

    2. Uranium mineralisation in weathered (and often fractured) granite/alaskitic bodies. The
    source of this mineralisation is likely to be the host rock. This secondary mineralisation does not
    generally extend below 10 metres of the surface and the presence of deeper primary uranium
    remains untested and a target for future exploration.
    3. Uranium mineralisation in buried palaeo-channels. Drilling has shown that these drainage
    systems can exceed 50 metes depth with basement topography and channel width varying
    considerably over short distances. Because of their concealed nature - and general lack of
    radiometric expression ¨C it is clear that their positions and mineralisation potential was not fully
    investigated by the historic drilling programmes with large untested sheet wash covered areas
    present east of Mineralised Areas 1 to 4 and in the south east corner of the licence.

    Radon Programme to Identify Further Extensions to Known Mineralisation
    A radon gas programme utilising track etch cups is well advanced over two areas (Areas 1 and 2
    Figure 4) totalling 60 sq km in the eastern sector of the licence. The programme is targeting
    possible uranium mineralised palaeo-channels masked by alluvial cover in areas where little
    (Area 1), or no (Area 2), drilling has been conducted in the past.
