COMPLETE ANNOUNCEMENT.

Tawana Resources NL (ASX:TAW) (“Tawana” or the “Company”) and Alliance Mineral Assets Limited (SGX: AMA)
(AMAL) are pleased to announce that extensional step-out drilling and mapping at the Bald Hill Project, in the
Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia has significantly increased the footprint of the known lithium and
tantalum pegmatite swarm. The Bald Hill Project is a joint project between Tawana and AMAL.

    Highlights - Drilling
- Eastern high-grade extension. Significant results include:
     -    31m at 1.46% Li2O from 143m, including 18m at 1.88% Li2O in LRC0702;
     -    35m at 1.74% Li2O from 146m including 15m at 2.11% Li2O in LRC0703.
     This mineralised zone remains open to the east and south.
- Boreline South Eastern Extension. Significant results include:
     -    7m at 1.38% Li2O from 113m in LRC0665;
     -    6m at 1.45% Li2O from 150m LRC0675;
     -    9m at 0.93% Li2O from 41m and 10m at 1.11% Li2O from 117m in LRC0677.
     This mineralised zone remains open to the south.
-    Initial lithium drilling at Fenceline prospect. Significant results include:
     -     7m at 1.35% Li2O from 29m in LRC0672;
     -     7m at 0.54% Li2O from 65m and 5m at 0.80%Li2O from 82m in LRC0674.

-    Deeper pegmatite below starter pit. Significant results include:
     -   7.78m at 2.46% Li2O from 234m including 2.78m at 4.27% Li2O in LDD0001;
     -   6m at 2.03% Li2O from 135m in LDD0003.

    Highlights – Mapping, Water Exploration Drilling
- Several outcropping lithium and tantalum pegmatites discovered SW of the Fenceline prospect.
- A single water exploration drill hole drilled on R15/001, 700m west of the starter pit, intercepted 3 spodumene
     pegmatites.

Tawana Resources Managing Director Mark Calderwood stated: “With a number of significant resource targets,
the Joint Venture is considering increasing the pace of drilling in the new year. One rig will continue with infill
drilling whilst one to two rigs will work on step out drilling and testing newly discovered lithium pegmatites.
We remain on track to joining the lithium producer ranks in 1Q18.”
Recent Drilling
A further 87 Reverse Circulation drill holes totalling 12,222m and 7 core holes totalling 750m were completed between
2 August and 4 October 2017. Of these 94 holes drilled, only 20 were completed in time to be included in the October
Resource Estimate (Refer ASX Release 11 October 2017). Recent intercepts are summarised in Tables 3, 4 and 5 in
Appendix A.
Areas of focus for recent drilling were:
-   Eastern high-grade extension, six holes completed. Significant results include:
    -   17m at 0.93% Li2O from 119m in LRC0685;
    -   19m at 0.98% Li2O from 156m, including 9m at 1.26% Li2O in LRC0701;
    -   31m at 1.46% Li2O from 143m, including 18m at 1.88% Li2O in LRC0702;
    -   35m at 1.74% Li2O from 146m including 15m at 2.11% Li2O in LRC0703.
This mineralised zone remains open to the east and south.
-   Boreline South Eastern Extension, eight holes completed. Significant results include:
    -    7m at 1.38% Li2O from 113m in LRC0665;
    -    6m at 1.45% Li2O from 150m LRC0675;
    -    9m at 0.93% Li2O from 41m and 10m at 1.11% Li2O from 117m in LRC0677.
This mineralised zone remains open to the south.
-   Initial lithium drilling at Fenceline prospect, four holes completed. Significant results include:
    -     7m at 1.35% Li2O from 29m in LRC0672;
    -     7m at 0.54% Li2O from 65m and 5m at 0.80%Li2O from 82m in LRC0674.
-   Deeper pegmatite below starter pit, two prior holes partly assayed. Significant new results include:
    -   7.78m at 2.46% Li2O from 234m including 2.78m at 4.27% Li2O in LDD0001;
    -   6m at 2.03% Li2O from 135m in LDD0003.
-   Notable intercepts from Resource Infill drilling not included in the October Resource Estimate include:
    -   23m at 1.31% Li2O from 115m in LRC0494;
    -   11m at 2.01% Li2O from 132m followed by 10m at 1.00% Li2O from 146m in LRC0495;
    -   28m at 1.48% Li2O from 110m including 12m at 2.04% Li2O from 124m in LRC0499;
    -   22m at 1.03% Li2O from 83m in LRC0500;
    -   29m at 0.90% Li2O from 105m followed by 11m at 1.35% Li2O from 133m in LRC0636;
    -   14m at 1.59% Li2O from 133m including 7m at 2.03% Li2O from 138m in LRC0637;
    -   31m at 1.50% Li2O from 134m in LRC0638;
    -   11m at 1.72% Li2O from 40m and 12m at 1.17% Li2O from 80m in LRC0640;
    -   14m at 1.56% Li2O and 296ppm Ta2O5 from 63m including 6m at 2.93% Li2O in LRC0695.

Exploration has recently focused on initial grade control, water bore installation and water exploration drilling. A
recently completed water exploration hole (LRC0706) drilled 700m west of the current proposed starter pit (refer Figure
2) intercepted four pegmatites at shallow depths, three of which contained visible spodumene; 23-25m - moderate
spodumene; 27-31m - high spodumene; and 43-49m - moderate spodumene.
Mapping and Sampling
Outcrop mapping and sampling has been undertaken on R15/01. Several outcropping spodumene and tantalum
pegmatites have been located highlighting the potential, at depth, for the more important sub-horizontal pegmatites.
A total of 75 rock chip and channel samples were collected over a wide area of which 54 contained visual spodumene
or anomalous lithium, tantalum or tin. Refer Table 1.
