Technical Disclosures and
Forward-Looking Disclaimers
This presentation should be read in conjunction with the release by Bannerman Resources Limited dated 10 April 2012 and entitled “Bannerman Reports Positive DFS Results and
Milestone Agreement with Namibian State-Owned Mining Company”. All material assumptions detailed in this presentation and underpinning the production target and forecast
financial information in the DFS continue to apply and have not materially changed.
Certain disclosures in this presentation, including management's assessment of Bannerman Resources Ltd’s plans and projects, constitute forward-looking statements that are
subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and other factors relating to Bannerman’s operation as a mineral development company that may cause future results to differ materially
from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. The following are important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from
those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements: fluctuations in uranium prices and currency exchange rates; uncertainties relating to interpretation of drill results
and the geology, continuity and grade of mineral deposits; uncertainty of estimates of capital and operating costs, recovery rates, production estimates and estimated economic
return; general market conditions; the uncertainty of future profitability; and the uncertainty of access to additional capital. Full descriptions of these risks can be found in the
Company’s various statutory reports, including its Annual Information Form available on the SEDAR website, sedar.com. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements. Bannerman Resources Ltd expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of
new information, future events or otherwise.
Mineral resources that are not ore reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
The information in this presentation relating to the Mineral Resources of the Etango Project is based on a resource estimate compiled or reviewed by Mr Brian Wolfe in April
2012. Mr Wolfe is a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Mr Wolfe was employed by Coffey Mining as an independent consultant to the Company at the time of
the studies and public release of results. As Mr Wolfe is now no longer employed by Coffey Mining, Coffey Mining has reviewed this presentation and consent to the inclusion,
form and context of the relevant information herein as derived from the original reports for which Mr Wolfe’s consent has previously been given. Mr Wolfe has sufficient
experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which is being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined
in the 2012 Edition of the JORC ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’ and a Qualified Person as defined by Canadian National
Instrument 43-101.
The information in this presentation relating to the Ore Reserves of the Etango Project is based on information compiled or reviewed by Mr Harry Warries, a full time employee of
Coffey Mining Pty Ltd. Mr Warries is a Fellow of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and types
of deposits under consideration and to the activity which is being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the “Australasian Code for
Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”, and is an independent consultant to Bannerman and a Qualified Person as defined by Canadian National
Instrument 43-101. Mr Warries consents, and provides corporate consent for Coffey Mining Pty Ltd, to the inclusion in this presentation of the matters based on his information in
the form and context in which it appears.
The information in this report that relates to Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves was prepared and first disclosed under the 2004 JORC Code. It has not been updated since to
comply with the 2012 JORC Code on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported. All material assumptions and technical parameters
underpinning the estimates of mineral resources continue to apply and have not materially changed.
All material assumptions detailed in this presentation and underpinning the production target and forecast financial information in the DFS (as previously announced on 10 April
2012 and reported on 30 January 2014 in compliance with Listing Rule 5.16 and 5.17) continue to apply and have not materially changed.

Etango Project in a Nutshell
 Completed Etango DFS & ESIA in 2012.
 Granted environmental approvals in 2012.
 6 – 9 Mlbs U3O8 annual production over 16 year mine life, with
opportunity to extend.
 Straightforward geology, mineralogy & metallurgy.
 Large scale open pit mining, dynamic acid heap leaching & solvent
extraction.

Development Strategy
Position Bannerman to fast track the
Etango project in a favourable uranium market
20
1.
Further reduce financing risk through conducting heap leach
demonstration program.
2.
Update the definitive feasibility study taking into consideration the
current cost environment, greater understanding gained from the study
review underway and the future results from the heap leach
demonstration program.
3.
Engage with interested parties with regards to entering into a
development partnership .
4.
Progress project financing arrangements.
