                        Mofe Creek Project Update

Tawana Resources NL (Tawana or the Company) is pleased to provide the following
updates in relation to the Mofe Creek iron ore project (the Project):

   -   Tawana has been granted approval to commence its Exploration Work Program on
       its recently acquired and wholly-owned southern exploration licence MEL1223/14
       by Liberia’s Ministry of Lands, Mines & Energy (MLME). This new licence is highly
       prospective for Direct Shipping Ore (DSO) mineralisation, as observed in the field
       and highlighted in the ASX release 7th May 2015. Further ongoing field mapping
       work will systematically assess remaining and additional targets which include DSO
       potential.

   -   Tawana has likewise been awarded its Environmental Protection Agency permit for
       MEL1223/14. This permit allows the Company to progress field exploration
       activities and is a legal requirement under Liberian regulations.

   -   Low-cost exploration activities currently being progressed, including geological
       mapping to define further new targets within tenement MEL1223/14, continue to
       provide encouraging results. These encouraging results strengthen the rationale for
       further low-cost exploration in the area, with the potential number of targets now
       increased to 74 magnetic and topographic anomalies across both tenements.

   -   A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been executed between the Company
       and WISCO-CAD (Wisco) for the use of the Freeport iron ore facility in Monrovia
       (refer ASX release of 18th May 2015). Wisco is the owner-operator of the iron ore
       port facility and is currently exporting iron ore. A draft Cooperation Agreement has
       been forwarded to Wisco for review and negotiation.

   -   Tawana continues to advance discussions with in-country iron ore producers and
       developers on potential co-sharing infrastructure arrangements for a common-user
       port and infrastructure corridor.

   -   The Company has been granted an eight-month extension of the initial three-year
       exploration term for both licences MEL12029 and MEL1223/14 by the MLME, in
       consideration of last year’s Ebola outbreak and acknowledged Force Majeure
       event.

   -   The Company is currently awaiting a formal response from Liberia’s Inter-
       Ministerial Concessions Committee (IMCC) with regard the first pass submission of
       Tawana Liberia Inc.’s Mineral Development Agreement. Negotiations are expected
       to progress in the coming month(s).


   About Tawana (ASX & JSE: TAW)
   Tawana Resources NL is an iron ore focused ASX and JSE-listed Company with its principal
   project in Liberia, West Africa. Tawana’s 100% owned Mofe Creek project is a new
   discovery in the heart of Liberia’s historic iron ore district, located 20km from the coast
   and 85km from the country’s capital city and major port, Monrovia.

   Tawana is committed to becoming a mid-tier iron ore producer through the development
   of the Mofe Creek project, which covers 475km2 of highly prospective tenements in Grand
   Cape Mount County. The Project hosts high-grade friable itabirite mineralisation which can
   be easily upgraded to a superior quality iron ore product in the 64-68% Fe grade range, for
   which there is consistent global demand, attracting significant price premiums.
