IMC Exploration Group Plc ("IMC" or the "Company" or the "Group") Unaudited consolidated preliminary financial statements Year ended 30 June 2012 Chairman's Statement Dear Shareholders, It is with great pleasure that I report on the first full year of activities. The Company has made significant progress to date, with a well-funded drilling programme continuing apace. On the 26th October 2011 the Company announced the commencement of an eighteen month drilling programme on its thirteen gold and base metal prospecting licences. Some of the highlights of the past year are as follows: Clare - Tulla * The first drill hole in the Tulla licence area, in east Co. Clare, intersected significant calcite mineralization capping an interval of semi-massive pyrite mineralization. The style and the geology of this mineralisation are broadly similar to other known mineralisation in the Limerick Basin such as the discovered high grade mineralisation at Kilbricken. * Dr John Kelly of SLR Consulting Limited ("SLR"), an expert on the characteristics of Irish Base Metal Deposits, was commissioned to provide an independent report on drill core. As a result of his highly encouraging findings the Company decided to immediately increase drilling activity in the Tulla area in order to further understand this area's exploration potential and confirm the directors' belief that the Tulla Prospecting Licence area hosted significant base metal mineralisation. Subsequently the Company introduced a second drill rig to its exploration programme, with one drill rig entirely focused on the exciting base metal prospect in Tulla. * IMC increased its drilling activity as a result of encouraging indications from drill-hole 11-3729-01, drilling three more holes (12-3729-02/03/04) in order to further understand and confirm this area's exploration potential. Dr John Kelly was commissioned to review drill-cores from the further three drill-holes undertaken in the Tulla area. Dr. Kelly reported that, "In addition to the hydrothermal dolomitic breccias intersected in drill-hole 11-3729-01, drill-holes 12-3729-03 and 12-3729-04 intersected significant haematisation of Waulsortian limestones and alteration of sub-Waulsortian shales from black/grey to green. Such haematisation and shale alteration had been recorded as being associated with base-metal mineralisation at the Tynagh, Silvermines, Lisheen and Crinkill base-metal deposits". Wicklow * Drilling was commenced in the highly prospective Goldmine River area of South Co. Wicklow. This area was the site of historic alluvial gold production, the scene of a gold rush in the late 18th century, where 9,000 ounces of gold were reportedly extracted. Wexford * Encouraging gold sample results of up to 76.8 grams per tonne of gold (2.46 ounces per tonne) were taken from rock grab samples at the Kilmichael Prospecting Licence Area. Following these encouraging gold sample results, follow up drilling in North Co. Wexford intersected further encouraging gold results in Holes 1, 2 and 3. * Drilling activity was intensified in the South-Western part of Wexford licence PL 2551 at Boley, near Camolin. This drill hole, No. 4, is situated approximately 5km along strike from the earlier drill hole No. 2 undertaken at Ballygarrett where enhanced values of gold, silver, lead and zinc were reported by IMC. * Following these excellent results IMC is now committed to forging ahead with its drilling program in order to establish and define the limits of a viable mineral resource in the area. I would like to thank my fellow directors and corporate advisors for the commitment, professionalism and energy they have shown. I would also like to thank you, the shareholders, for your continuing support. You may rest assured that it is our intention to continue to add value as we make progress on all fronts. Since the company's year end further positive progress has been made as follows: *new Irish licences have been offered to the company *further independent verification of our beliefs of what your company holds has been received *developments with our international partner Harvest Resources Limited I look forward to reporting on further exciting developments in the coming year.
