                                              Operational Review
              Withdrawal of Fund-Raising Resolution at the forthcoming General Meeting

FCR, the lead-zinc exploration company, announces that, following the resignation of the
Company’s Executive Chairman on 26 September 2017, the Board of FCR is in the process of
comprehensive operational review, focused on how best to derive value for FCR shareholders from
the Toral lead-zinc asset.

From initial work completed, the Board believes that it is possible its pursue a strategy to build
value at the Toral lead zinc asset for a cost lower than originally planned and, therefore, the full
A$2.7 million which the Board originally envisaged would be required to be raised in a placing, may
not be required. The results of the operational review will be announced in due course.

In light of these developments, the Board has decided that, at the general meeting convened for
18 October 2017 (the “General Meeting”), Resolution 1, seeking shareholder approval to raise up
to A$2.7 million by way of private placement, will be withdrawn.

On 15 September 2017, the Notice of General Meeting was lodged with the ASX and subsequently
dispatched to shareholders of FCR, to be held at 11.00 a.m. (Perth time) on Wednesday, 18 October
2017 at The Hovia Room, Metro Hotel Perth, 61 Canning Highway, South Perth, Western Australia
6151.

The withdrawal of Resolution 1 will not affect the validity of the proxy form attached to the Notice
of General Meeting or any proxy votes already submitted in respect of the remaining Resolution to
be put to shareholders for approval. Shareholders wishing to complete and lodge a proxy form at
the General Meeting do not need to indicate their voting instructions on Resolution 1.
