The Company is targeting commercial production of 20-25,000 tonnes per year cathode by the end of 2009. For further information on results previously reported please visit our website www.findersresources.com. Demonstration Plant A key component of the Wetar Feasibility Study is the construction and operation of a 5tpd copper cathode Demonstration Plant. This plant will replicate all aspects of the planned full scale 20-25,000 tpa cathode operation. Calder Projects have been awarded the EPCM contract for the project. Finders' have previously indicated a US$6.25M capital cost for the demonstration plant and the project is currently within budget. The majority of equipment used for the plant is fabricated off-site and then shipped to Wetar for installation. Progress this period includes the following: Mobilisation of major equipment items Following delivery of heavy equipment and fuel tanks in early January, a second shipment was completed in mid-April. Equipment on the second shipment included: * Mixing and reagent tanks for the SX plant, * A three-stage crushing plant and wheel loader, * HDPE lining and poly-pipes for the leach pad, * Three 500kva diesel generators for power generation, * Steelwork for the plant buildings. Infrastructure During the quarter, on-site camp and office renovations were completed including the establishment of workshop and warehouse facilities and a medical clinic. The existing road to the Kali Kuning pit was upgraded and land cleared at the leach pad and process plant site. Fabrication and Design All outstanding items requiring fabrication are well underway with completion of the crushing & stacking conveyors expected by end May and the electrowinning (EW) cells and cathodes expected by mid-May. The longest lead-time item is the rectifier, which is scheduled for June delivery. Design work is complete, bar detailed electrical design which suffered a 4-6 week delay during the period due to problems with contractor availability. Project Timing The balance of equipment required for the demonstration plant will be mobilised by two further shipments and commissioning of the demonstration plant is scheduled for July 2008; in-line with Finders' target for cathode production by mid-2008. Feasibility Study The feasibility study for the full scale 20-25000 tpa cathode operation is running in parallel with the construction of the demonstration plant. Finders estimate that approximately 3-4 months of operating results from the demo plant will be required to finalise the feasibility study. Finders continues to work with several consulting groups with a view to completing studies on geotechnical and leach pad design (SRK Consulting), environmental management (HLA-ENSR), iterative mine and waste dump scheduling (AMDAD) and an assessment of power options for the commercial scale project (Calder Projects). Two drill rigs have been mobilised to the project area to complete an upgrade of the Kali Kuning and Lerokis resource estimates, an evaluation of copper sulphides contained within the waste dump area of the former gold mine, final pit wall and leach pad area geotechnical studies, sterilization drilling and wells for monitoring ground water. Metallurgical test work During the period, the Company continued to receive results from ongoing laboratory scale leach test work being undertaken at HRL in Brisbane and Ammtec Ltd in Perth. It should be noted that these progress results are based on extrapolation from solution assays, and that definitive recovery figures will require completion of solids assays and mass balances on completion of the tests. At HRL, four new 2m column tests using non-proprietary bacteria at elevated (45°C) temperatures have commenced to further assess effects of crush-size on recovery rates. Results to date (below) show little difference in leach rates between the different crush sizes. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Column Height / Crush Size | Ore Body | Days | Cu (%) | Zn (%) | |----------------------------+-------------+------+--------+--------| | 2m / 6.5mm | Lerokis | 37 | 28.9 | 27 | |----------------------------+-------------+------+--------+--------| | 2m / 12.5mm | Lerokis | 37 | 26.2 | 18 | |----------------------------+-------------+------+--------+--------| | 2m / 6.5mm | Kali Kuning | 40 | 24.1 | 57 | |----------------------------+-------------+------+--------+--------| | 2m / 12.5mm | Kali Kuning | 40 | 29.9 | 45 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ Ongoing HRL Test results (18/4/08) Metals Reporting to Solution (% total pending mass balance calculations) Six column tests using BioheapTM technology at the Ammtec Ltd laboratory have now been ongoing for 8 months out of a planned leach time of 10 months. Oxidation continues on all columns. The Kali Kuning columns continue to display copper release at steady rates, with over 82% Cu leached thus far in the 1m tall columns. Iron oxidation remains low, indicating preferential oxidation of zinc and/or copper minerals over pyrite. The Lerokis columns, as anticipated, have begun to show rapid copper release to over 60% recovery and the observed increase in rate of iron release is interpreted to indicate a change from sphalerite leaching to chalcopyrite/pyrite leaching, as anticipated in the December 31st quarterly report. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Column Height / Crush | Ore Body | Fe (%) | Cu (%) | Zn (%) | | Size | | | | | |--------------------------+-------------+--------+--------+--------| | 1m / 6.3mm | Lerokis | 10.5 | 61.3 | 76.6 | |--------------------------+-------------+--------+--------+--------| | 1m / 19mm | Lerokis | 5.7 | 16.4 | 75.9 | |--------------------------+-------------+--------+--------+--------| | 3m / 19mm | Lerokis | 9.1 | 46.1 | 85.9 | |--------------------------+-------------+--------+--------+--------| | 1m / 6.3mm | Kali Kuning | 7.8 | 82.1 | 87.5 | |--------------------------+-------------+--------+--------+--------| | 1m / 19mm | Kali Kuning | 5.7 | 84.0 | 106.0 | |--------------------------+-------------+--------+--------+--------| | 3m / 19mm | Kali Kuning | 3.7 | 44.5 | 46.1 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ Ongoing BioHeapTM Test results (26/3/08) Metals Reporting to Solution (% total pending mass balance calculations) Permitting and Tenements The Company hosted visitors from the Environment Impact Control Committee (BAPEDALDA) of the Maluku provincial government as part of the permitting process for the planned full scale operation. During the visit, the Company completed socialisation of the project with our host communities and presented material on the Company's community empowerment program. Final approvals were received for the new exploration permits which cover prospective areas defined by the 2007 geochemical program within the South Coast general survey permit area. These transactions are described in Appendix 5b and a revised tenement schedule is provided in Appendix 1 of this Report. Exploration No exploration activities were undertaken during the Quarter due to the wet season. This program will recommence during June/July with initial geophysical surveys planned for the Pantai Merah prospect. 2. Ojolali Project, Indonesia Finders Resources Limited ~72% with option Background Information At the Ojolali epithermal gold-silver project, Finders has previously announced Inferred Resources at the Jambi Oxide gold deposit (3.2 Mt @ 1.0 g/t Au, 6.9 g/t Ag at a 0.5 g/t Au cut-off, and including mining dilution) and Inferred Resources at the Tambang Prospect (7.9 Mt @ 167g/t Ag and 0.7 g/t Au at a 1 g/t Au equivalent cut-off using drilling data from a previous explorer). Finders believe that the Ojolali project has strong potential to generate short-term cash flow through open pit CIL/CIP development of the gold resource at the Jambi Oxide gold deposit. Other prospects have outstanding potential for the discovery of additional resources using modern geophysical techniques to optimize drill targeting. For further information on results previously reported and a full resource statement please visit our website www.findersresources.com Jambi Resource Drilling The initial phase of resource drilling at the Jambi oxide gold-silver project has been completed. Ninety six (96) RC drill holes (BKJR35-130) have been completed at Jambi for a total of 8297m of drilling; these complement 34 diamond holes completed by Finders during 2006. On completion of this phase of drilling, the RC rig was transferred to the Finders Wetar copper project for a 2 to 3 month program of infill and sterilization drilling, after which it is scheduled to return to Ojolali to carry out additional drilling on to test the currently indicated extensions to the Jambi system, as well as new targets defined by on-going exploration. Results from detailed mapping, geochemical and geophysical surveys and drilling, indicate that the Jambi system is controlled by intersecting northerly and north-easterly trending quartz and pyrite veinlet swarms, and the system remains open to the west, southwest, north and north-east. Host rocks for the Jambi mineralization are a sequence of intensely altered andesitic tuffs and agglomerates, with an earlier green chlorite alteration overprinted by structurally controlled zones of clay-pyrite silica alteration, brecciation and quartz veinlet swarms. Northerly trending structures dominate the north and western zone, while north-easterly structures appear more important in the southern part of the system. Final assays have now been received for all holes from this program. Results from holes BKJR35-115 have been reported previously, and are included in Appendix 2 of this report. Significant intercepts from holes BKJR115-130, using a 0.5 g/t gold equivalent cut-off, and a minimum intercept of 10 gram metres gold equivalent, are tabulated below. Of interest are a number of intercepts with low gold, but high silver values, including 10m @0.3 g/t Au, 60 g/t Ag from 60m in BKJR 121, and 5m @ 0.17 g/t Au and 247 g/t Ag from 56m in BKJR 130. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Hole Number | From | Interval (m) | Au g/t | Ag g/t | AuEq | | | (m) | | | | g/t+ | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR115 | 25 | 11 | 1.4 | 4 | 1.48 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR115 | 39 | 17 | 0.67 | 9 | 0.85 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR117 | 19 | 7 | 3.35 | 0.3 | 3.36 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | Including | 23 | 2 | 10.32 | 0.5 | 10.33 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR117 | 52 | 22 | 1.2 | 5 | 1.30 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR120 | 70 | 11 | 1.03 | 15 | 1.33 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR121 | 64 | 10 | 0.3 | 60 | 1.50 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR123 | 10 | 12 | 1.61 | 2 | 1.65 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR124 | 27 | 12 | 1.56 | 3 | 1.62 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR124 | 46 | 5 | 2.58 | 3 | 2.64 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR125 | 4 | 18 | 1.62 | 3 | 1.68 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR125 | 26 | 25 | 2.04 | 3 | 2.10 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR125 | 99 | 19 | 2.42 | 28 | 2.98 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | Including | 100 | 4 | 8.81 | 7 | 8.95 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR126 | 0 | 27 | 2.03 | 8 | 2.19 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR130 | 14 | 31 | 1.31 | 8 | 1.47 | |-------------+---------+--------------+--------+--------+----------| | BKJR130 | 56 | 5 | 0.17 | 246 | 5.09 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Au equivalents are calculated using Ag g/t divided by 50 plus Au g/t. Intercepts quoted are down-hole widths and will generally exceed the true widths of mineralized zones. Maps A full list of drill collars can be found in Appendix 3. Jambi Resource Update Hellman and Schofield Pty Ltd have been retained to develop an updated resource estimate for the detailed drilled portion of the Jambi prospect. Results of this work are expected in mid May, and will be used as a basis for additional metallurgical test-work to determine the optimum development strategy for the project. Geochemical Soil Sampling During the quarter a major program of geochemical soil sampling was carried out, with a total of 664 samples taken from gridlines totalling over 16.6 line km. The main focus of the current sampling were potential extensions to mineralisation immediately east and west of the Jambi drilling area and the Belida prospect area. At surface, Belida has similar geological characteristics to the Jambi prospect and is located approximately 1km west of Jambi. Assays for this work were initially deferred to give priority to the Jambi drill samples. These samples are currently being processed and should progressively become available through the second quarter. 3.
