Projects
Berkeley Resources Limited has agreed to acquire six advanced uranium exploration projects in Spain by purchasing Minera de Rio Alagon SL ("Rio Alagon"), a Spanish company that has applied for licences totalling approximately 110,000ha encompassing the six projects.

The Company will earn its interest in Rio Alagon by investing up to €1.5m in exploration over 3 years to earn an initial 51% and can then increase its interest up to 100% by spending a further €2m over 2 years.

All of the Rio Alagon projects have been extensively explored in the past by reputable uranium explorers – notably Areva NC (the worlds largest ore second largest uranium producer, depending on the measure used) and ENUSA (the Spanish national uranium company). As a result, a large volume of data is available, which Berkeley is in the process of acquiring and reviewing.

The Company has signed a Heads of Agreement (subject to shareholder approval) with Areva NC pursuant to which Berkeley will acquire access to Areva NC’s exploration database for the Iberian Peninsular and Areva NC will become Berkeley’s technical partner for exploration and development of the Company’s uranium projects in Spain. The Company will also appoint Areva NC as its marketing partner for any production arising from the Spanish projects, on normal commercial terms.

Berkeley has also made an application to the Spanish authorities for the lifting of a number of State Reserves which relate to substantial known uranium deposits within the Berkeley tenements. These will provide further targets for Berkeley to explore if and when these areas become available.

The Company also owns a number of exploration projects in Australia for gold, nickel and base metals.
