Chairman’s Review
Dear Shareholders
The past year has seen considerable progress in the reorganisation and recapitalisation of your
Company. Importantly the Company completed the agreement with major shareholder Auctus
Resources Fund resulting in the Company becoming debt free. This has enabled the Company to
strengthen its balance sheet and evaluate new project opportunities. The year also saw the
completion of a 1 for 4 share consolidation, new capital raised from existing and new shareholders
and the Company’s name change to Trek Metals Limited.
The Board has focussed on minimising costs while embarking upon its strategy of securing new base
and precious metals opportunities both in Australia and abroad.
The most significant of these was announced on 2 November 2016 when the Company entered into
an option agreement with Battery Minerals Limited (ASX:BAT, formerly Metals of Africa Limited,
ASX:MTA) to farm into the highly prospective Kroussou Zinc‐Lead Project in Gabon. The results of the
maiden drilling programme conducted by the Company at Kroussou early in 2017 highlighted
Kroussou’s immense zinc‐lead potential.
We continue to be active in identifying and assessing new project opportunities.
The Company announced in October 2016 the resignation of Mr David Vilensky as Chairman of the
Company and in January 2017 the resignation of Mr Marinko Vidovich as Director. I would like to take
this opportunity of thanking them both for their contributions to the Company.
Mr Bradley Drabsch was appointed Managing Director in September 2016. Mr Drabsch is a Geologist
and has over 18 years' experience in the minerals exploration industry and understands what it takes
to turn a small junior exploration company into a strong mining house. Ms Sonja Neame was
appointed a Non‐Executive Director in January 2017. Sonja has 23 years mining industry experience
and significant international experience in Africa, South America, Asia and the Pacific. Mr Michael
Bowen was appointed a Non‐Executive Director in February 2017. Mr Bowen is a partner of the law
firm DLA Piper practicing primarily corporate, commercial and securities law with an emphasis on
mergers, acquisitions, capital raisings and resources.
The Company continued to be frustrated by the status of the appeal lodged by organisations
associated with the conservation movement in Zambia on 17 January 2014 against the decision of the
Minister of Lands, Natural Resources and Environment Protection to approve the Company's 100%
owned Kangaluwi Copper Project. The Company continues to await the Judge of the Lusaka High Court
handing down his decision on the appeal. Taking this into account, the Board has minimised holding
Page | 3
costs relating to this project and has taken the conservative accounting decision to impair the
Kangaluwi Copper Project. Notwithstanding that this asset may have the potential to deliver
shareholder value in the future, the Directors consider it prudent, in recognition of existing market
conditions, to take this step.
Lastly, I would like to thank all our staff, consultants and stakeholders for their ongoing efforts on
behalf of the Company and look forward to progressing the Kroussou Project and other opportunities
to create value for shareholders.

Operations Review
KROUSSOU PROJECT ‐ GABON
Trek Metals Limited (“TKM”, “Trek” or the “Company”) announced on 2 November 2016 that it had
entered into an option agreement with Battery Minerals Limited (ASX:BAT, formerly Metals of Africa
Limited) to farm into the highly prospective Kroussou Zinc‐Lead Project in Gabon (Figure 1).
Intermittent historic exploration, conducted from 1962 to 1980 by the French Geological Society
(BRGM), identified significant near‐surface base metal mineralisation with drill testing limited to a
small portion of the target areas.
Project details can be found in the TKM ASX announcement dated 2 November 2016.
The key terms of the agreement are:
Drill Option – TKM to fund an initial drilling programme at Kroussou up to US$250,000.
Should TKM elect to exercise this option (prior to 31st July 2017), TKM will pay BAT US$240,000 in
cash and/or shares as a reimbursement of costs and to secure the right to earn 30% of the Kroussou
Project through the expenditure of US$1M within 12 months of the exercise date.
TKM can then earn a further 40% of the Project through the expenditure of US$3M in the
subsequent 24 months.
TKM will then have earnt 70% of the Kroussou Project and agrees to free carry BAT through to the
completion of a PFS (Pre‐Feasibility Study, as defined in JORC 2012). At that point BAT will have the
option to contribute to the delivery of a DFS (Definitive Feasibility Study as defined in JORC 2012)
or dilute, via standard industry formulae to 5%, whereby below that, its interest will convert to a
2.5% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR). TKM will have the option to buy back 1% of this royalty through
the payment of US$1M to BAT.
About the Project
Zinc and lead mineralisation is hosted in Cretaceous sediments exposed on the margin of the Cotier
(Coastal) Basin within preserved channels and onlapping unconformable Archaean and
Paleoproterozic basement rocks (Figures 1 and 2). Base metal occurrences are mapped along the
length of the Kroussou Project License (84km strike for ~1,500km2 of tenure). Only a limited number
(2 of 18) of the exposed channels were drill tested by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et
Minières (BRGM) historically, with both channels containing significant base metal mineralisation.
Trek believes there is scope for the discovery of significant base metal mineralisation.
Page | 6
FIGURE 1: LOCATION PLAN OF THE KROUSSOU PROJECT IN GABON
The Dikaki Prospect, the area with the most historic drilling (small diameter diamond core) returned
numerous shallow intersections of ore grade and width zinc plus lead mineralisation. Some of the
better intersections reported included 2.3m @ 21.2% Zn+Pb from 0.9m, 8.3m @ 7.8% Zn+Pb from
13.6m and 7.0m @ 8.2% from 9.4m. These holes were drilled by the BRGM in 1979‐1980 (for further
details refer to TKM’s ASX Announcement from 2 November 2016).
Assaying of core by the BRGM was highly selective due to the high cost of analysis and transport back
to France at the time. Only obviously mineralised (clearly visible galena – lead sulphide) core was sent
for analysis, limiting defined and quantified mineralisation to these intersections. Sphalerite (zinc
sulphide) is not always easy to identify in hand specimen and zinc rich core may not have been sent
for assay. Further, BRGM limited their drill program to shallow holes (average depth of 16m) with
numerous holes ending in mineralisation.
The BRGM drill holes confirm multiple horizons of flat lying mineralisation. Numerous intersections
of massive sulphide were reported in drill logs adding to the potential for significant zinc and lead
mineralisation at the Kroussou project. The style of mineralisation is likely Mississippi Valley Type,
however some Sedex Type characteristics are also observed. Petrology undertaken by BAT indicates
relatively equal proportions of zinc and lead minerals and the sphalerite appears to have low iron
content, making it more attractive for beneficiation.
Page | 7
A field visit by Trek, identified significant zinc and lead mineralisation within modern drainage systems
outcropping within the historically drilled channels. BAT previously announced confirmation of high
grade rock chips at the Dikaki and Kroussou Prospects with results returning grades as high as 9.7%
zinc and 33.1% lead (see ASX announcement by BAT from 7 April 2015). Trek released further positive
rock chip results from the project area in an ASX announcement from 14 February 2017.
Drilling
As announced by the Company on the 11 May 2017 the drilling programme within the Dikaki Prospect
at the Kroussou Project in Gabon is complete with results highlighting Kroussou’s immense zinc‐lead
potential and provides Trek with confidence that the historic drilling information is reliable and can
be used to assist future targeting.
The drilling programme was designed to confirm the presence of near‐surface zinc‐lead mineralisation
originally identified by the French Geological Survey (BRGM) as early as the 1960’s and provide Trek
with the confidence that the broader basin was a viable exploration target.
Assays returned from the drilling programme include (Figures 2, 3 and 4, Table 1):
•
•
24.7m @ 2.9% Zn eq from 2.0m (DKDD003)
Incl. 2.8m @ 20.1% Zn eq from 7.7m
37.1m @ 2.0% Zn eq from 2.3m (DKDD001)
Incl. 1.3m @ 8.6% Zn eq from 11m
and 12.5m @ 4.0% Zn eq from 14.5m
The twin of S1 (DKDD005), a hole drilled historically for which assaying was not undertaken, returned
several broad, low‐grade intersections. This is pivotal because it shows the mineralisation may be
present within the broader Cotier Basin, meaning the entire basin is now a target for exploration. This
materially extends the target area for the project and demonstrates the prospectivity of the basin.
Trek Managing Director Brad Drabsch said the results painted an extremely promising picture for
several reasons.
“The assays are strong in their own right with significant widths and grades,” Mr Drabsch said.
“But they are also important because they show that the historic drilling results are relatively accurate
and are a reliable means of identifying new drilling targets.
“The result from the twin hole of S1 (DKDD005) is particularly crucial because it confirms that the
entire basin at Dikaki, rather than just the channels, could be mineralised and is now a target.

MINERALIZATION
“This result, combined with the existing regional targets and those we expect to generate from
historical drilling and upcoming geophysical surveys, highlights the outstanding potential to establish
a substantial resource within the project.”
A zone along the northern edge of the Dikaki Channel (Figure 3) has, in historical drilling, and now as
part of the recently completed programme, yielded stratabound bands of high grade zinc and lead
within a broad halo of lower grade mineralisation (Figure 4).
The work conducted by the French Geological Survey (BRGM) did not highlight the broader lower
grade, zinc rich zone, as their assaying was lead focussed and restricted to visually obvious lead
Page | 9
mineralisation (galena, the main lead ore sulphide mineral is very easy to see in hand specimen
whereas sphalerite, the main zinc sulphide ore mineral is more difficult to identify).
Trek engaged Perth based consultancy CSA Global to evaluate the drill core from Dikaki. CSA
commented in their report, specifically referring to Dikaki that:
“The recent results show that the mineralisation at Dikaki reaches potentially economic grade and
thickness, and also highlights that the limited BRGM sampling has not adequately outlined the extent
of mineralisation. As a result, the channel target at Dikaki is far from fully tested, while the scale of
the target zone is substantial. Considering the low strip ratio, there may still be potential for a
substantial body of low to moderate grade economic mineralisation at Dikaki…”
“Mineralisation at Kroussou shows great lateral extent along the Cretaceous unconformity, over 30
kilometres in the project area, indicating that the basin was productive for zinc‐lead‐silver mineralising
fluids and experienced a major focused fluid flow event of uncertain timing and trigger. The location
of Kroussou coincides with a major right‐step relay and transform zone that would have acted to focus
fluid flow out of the basin onto the rift‐shoulder basin high, with additional focus provided by pinch
out of basin aquifer units.
High‐grade mineralisation is hosted in coarse clean high‐energy clastic sediments deposited in
palaeochannels in the embayments, as well as replacing lacustrine carbonate rocks. Low‐grade halo
mineralisation extends through the clastic stratigraphy with zinc more widely distributed than lead.
Mineralisation is characterised by replacement of carbonate cement‐and open‐space fill in clean
clastic units and subsidiary replacement of dolostone horizons. Chemistry and mineralogy are simple,
characterised by Zn‐Pb‐Ag with anomalous Cu, with generally low‐iron sphalerite and associated with
marcasite. The gangue is calcite and locally barite with no dolomite.”
Further Exploration
Dikaki
Trek now plans to continue exploring the Dikaki Prospect in order to further scope out the
mineralisation discovered to date. Additional surface sampling throughout the Dikaki channel will be
completed as part of the broader regional survey that is underway. The higher grade zones are still
open in most directions and present an excellent opportunity as near surface targets.
In conjunction with this work, ground based geophysics (IP/EM) will be tested in order to establish it’s
effectiveness in directly detecting the sulphide rich mineralised zones.

Regional
With the recognition that the broader Cotier basin is now a live target for more extensive base metal
mineralisation, a surface sampling survey has been initiated. Samples will be collected within channels
forming the priority 1 region (Figure 2) at a nominal spacing of 100m x 200m with the broader basin
being sampled at 400m x 400m. Soil anomalies generated will be infilled appropriately with ground
based geophysical follow‐up and then drill tested where necessary.
Access to Infrastructure
Access into the Kroussou project area has been greatly enhanced in recent times by the presence of
several logging companies operating in the area. New, high quality roads and tracks have been
established that allow for easy passage into the project from the bitumen highway that runs south
from the capital city of Libreville.
A river port at Yeno (Figure 1), approximately 65km, by vehicle, to the west of the project area along
a good quality road, is used by the timber and the oil industries to barge equipment and product to
Gabon’s main commercial shipping base at Port Gentil. This barge system presents an ideal, relatively
cheap logistical solution for operations within the project to and from the main export facilities at Port
Gentil.

LAWN HILL PROJECT – NORTHERN TERRITORY
As announced on 16 September 2016, Trek entered into a share sale agreement to purchase 100% of
TM Resources Pty Ltd (“TM Resources”) which holds two exploration tenement applications in the
Northern Territory known as the Lawn Hill Project. The tenements contain highly prospective geology
with the potential to host large scale sediment hosted zinc‐lead deposits similar in style to the World
Class Century deposit (> 150Mt @ 8.2% Zn + 1.2 % Pb + 33g/t Ag).
FIGURE 5: LOCATION PLAN OF THE LAWN HILL PROJECT SHOWING THE MAJOR GEOLOGICAL REGIONS AND THE LOCATION OF THE
CENTURY ZN+PB DEPOSIT
Rocks of the Lawn Hill Platform, hosting the Century Zinc Deposit to the south‐east of the tenement
applications in Queensland (Figure 5) are mapped across much of the tenement applications that form
the Lawn Hill Project. In addition to being correlated with the rocks hosting Century, the Fickling Group
sediments within the Lawn Hill Project can also be correlated with those of the McArthur Group which
contain one of the World’s largest sediment hosted base metal deposits at McArthur River (HYC
Deposit, > 200Mt @ 13% Zn+Pb).
Page | 13
Almost No Previous Exploration
Previous exploration has been sparse across the tenement applications with only one major phase of
work being completed during the 1980’s. This work was very broad‐brushed and resulted in only two
drillholes being completed.
Numerous Zn, Cu and Pb occurrences are described on the Queensland side of the border (Figure 6),
including the Walford Creek Project (73 Mt @ 1.4% Cu eq) currently being explored by Aeon Metals
Limited, with nothing on the Northern Territory side, due, simply, to a lack of exploration.
Key Deal Terms
AUD $10,000 cash payment up‐front
AUD $50,000 in TKM shares to be issued upon the grant of the tenements
AUD $1,000,000 upon the public release of a JORC 2012 Compliant Resource in respect of the
Lawn Hill Project of between 550Kt Zn eq – 1.1Mt Zn eq
AUD $3,000,000 upon the public release of a JORC 2012 Compliant Resource in respect of the
Lawn Hill Project of between 1.1Mt Zn eq – 2.2Mt Zn eq
TKM anticipates the grant process may take between 12 – 24 months and looks forward to then
progressing an aggressive exploration strategy at the Lawn Hill Project. The process involves
negotiations with the Native Title holders in the area, the Waanyi/Garawa Aboriginal Land Trust. TM
Resources commenced discussions with the Waanyi/Garawa Aboriginal Land Trust to facilitate the
granting process and TKM looks forward to continuing these negotiations.

TKM is currently in the process of negotiating access arrangements to allow for the grant of the Lawn
Hill Project Tenements. This process is expected to continue for the remainder of 2017.
KANGALUWI COPPER PROJECT ‐ ZAMBIA
Court Case
The Company is awaiting written judgement by the Judge of the Lusaka High Court on the appeal
lodged by organisations associated with the conservation movement in Zambia on 17 January 2014
against the decision of the Minister of Lands, Natural Resources and Environment Protection to
approve the Company's 100% owned Kangaluwi Copper Project. The stay of execution remains in place
pending the outcome of the appeal against the Minister’s decision.
TKM continues to lobby to have the decision handed down, however, the Board has determined that
it is unlikely that this situation will be resolved in the near term and has taken the conservative
accounting decision to impair the capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure for this asset to
$Nil.
