Wetar Copper Project
(FND 94% and earning through expenditure)
Background Information on the Wetar Copper Project
The Wetar Copper Project comprises two high grade deposits, Kali Kuning and
Lerokis, which are located within 3km from the coast and suitable for open pit
mining.
Since February 2009 Finders has operated a 5 tonne per day SX-EW demonstration
plant to optimise process design and provide data required for the recently
completed Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS). The test heaps are at heights
similar to commercial operations worldwide and the SX-EW technology being used
is industry standard. SX-EW technology is currently responsible for
approximately 22% of the world's copper production.
The Ore Reserves have been independently assessed by Australian Mine Design &
Development Pty Ltd and are in accordance with the JORC Code (Table 1). The
following statement uses a cut-off of 0.5% copper for two pits at Kali Kuning
and Lerokis with an overall waste to ore ratio of 0.98.

The tonnes and grades are stated to a number of significant digits reflecting
the confidence of the estimate. Since each number and total is rounded
individually the columns and rows in the above table may not show exact sums or
weighted averages of the reported tonnes and grades.
In addition there is a third deposit, Meron, located 2 km from Kali Kuning.
This prospect has a potential size of 0.5-1.5mt @ 1-3% Cu based on historical
drilling results from the previous gold mining operation. This potential is an
exploration target which is conceptual in nature and may or may not be converted
into a Mineral Resource depending on future exploration and resource modelling
work. Meron is not included in the definitive feasibility study due to its lack
of technical definition, however, engineering plans do recognize the potential
for later additional leach ore from Meron and additional leaching space is
available.
Copper mineral species at Kali Kuning and Lerokis are dominated by chalcocite
and covellite, which are readily amenable to bacterial assisted leaching, and
chalcopyrite which leaches faster at higher temperatures.
The project is at the same location as an old gold mine which operated between
1989-1997 and benefits from having existing infrastructure in place,
particularly a wharf, camp and roads.
Demonstration Plant Update
The demonstration plant had its most successful Quarter with nameplate capacity
exceeded and production of 453 tonnes of copper cathode.
This is a major milestone for the company and is a compliment to the dedication
of the site work force and a reward for the successful optimisation of
operations at site.
As a result of more efficient operations, the most recent copper cathode quality
is now of the highest standard with impurity levels for all elements totalling
about 6 parts per million (ppm) against an LME Grade A copper cathode benchmark
of 65ppm.

This production result builds on the operational experience gained over the past
year and provides an excellent platform from which to develop the project to
full commercial scale. The Company is advantaged during the demonstration phase
by the ability to test all aspects of the commercial scale operation; including
logistics, health and safety, operations and sales.
A key component is the capability to train employees; Finders has adopted a
preferential policy towards the local villages and currently 65% of our
employees come from Wetar Island.
The skills development of our local crew has been very satisfying particularly
considering that SX-EW technology is new to Indonesia. A number of employees
have gained junior staff and leading hand positions and have gained formal
certification for their new expertise.

Project Development - Expanded Demonstration Plant (EDP)
The first stage of the Wetar Project development involves the brown-field
expansion of the existing demonstration plant. The scope for Stage 1 in the
definitive feasibility study has been revised to now comprise a planned
expansion to 7,000 tpa copper cathode (up from 5,000 tpa).
Development activities have progressed on schedule during this period. Detailed
design for the Stage 1 expansion of the project is planned to be completed in
June 2010. The design managers are Brisbane based groups Electrowin and Neubau
Engineering who have extensive combined experience in the engineering, design
and delivery of copper SX-EW operations.

Various tender inquiries are in progress with Indonesian suppliers and
contractors. Finders have appointed Geoff Hiller as Project Manager Wetar and
he will report to Rob Thomson (Executive Director Development). Geoff has a
mining and civil engineering background and for the past 3 months has been
responsible for the successful dismantling of the Whim Creek SX-EW plant in
Western Australia.
The Company has been engaging with potential financiers for the past 6 months
and a considerable number of site visits have been undertaken. From a
shortlisted group, detailed discussions of draft terms sheets are underway with
the intention to achieve project financing in line with expected grant of mining
lease.
Whim Creek SX-EW Plant
Finders' purchase of the Whim Creek plant in December 2009 ensured that the bulk
of equipment required for project expansion is now owned by the Company and a
clear point of differentiation with other junior exploration companies at
similar stages of development. The Whim Creek plant disassembly has been
completed on time and within budget and its components are currently
containerized and ready for transportation to Wetar.
Environmental Permitting & Community
The Company is pleased to report that the Environmental Impact Assessment (known
as AMDAL in Indonesia) relating to the Wetar Copper Project has been approved by
the Governor of Maluku; as recommended by the Regional Environmental Impact
Management Agency (BAPEDALDA).
The AMDAL covers an independent and comprehensive assessment of major and
significant impacts likely to result from the proposed project activity.
The report was written in collaboration between IPB (Institut Pertanian Bogor)
and AECOM (based in Brisbane, Australia) and independently assessed by UNPATI
(Universitas Pattimura, Ambon). Approval has been received for several key
documents which cover the entire mine life of the Wetar Copper Project and
include the:
* Environmental Impact Analysis (ANDAL), containing definition of the
environmental baseline;
* Environmental Management Plan (RKL), together with mine closure objectives;
and
* Environmental Monitoring Plan (RPL).
The AMDAL submission was based on best practice environmental standards along
with extensive consultation with all stakeholder groups and incorporates the
Company's agreements with the local community.
The Company provides assistance to the local community by means of both direct
support and the instigation of a Yayasan (charitable foundation) for each
community. There is a ten year strategy to encourage new activities and new
attitudes in the community.
An important part of the strategy is that the Company works in partnership with
the community and sees its role as a motivator and provider of opportunity.

The AMDAL approval is a pre-requisite for documents supporting the mining and
processing licenses for the Stage 1 and 2 project development.
Ojolali Project
Finders Resources Limited 72% with option to increase to 100%
Background Information
The Company believes that the Ojolali project has strong potential to be a
follow-on project for Finders based on the development of the gold resource at
the Jambi Oxide gold deposit (Table 3.)

Finders has previously announced Inferred Resources at the Tambang Prospect (7.9
Mt @ 167g/t Ag and 0.7 g/t Au at a 1 g/t Au equivalent cut-off using drilling
data from a previous explorer).
Previous regional exploration by Finders, using both soil geochemistry and
ground geophysics has located numerous targets with outstanding potential for
the discovery of additional resources.
Finders' current exploration strategy at Ojolali is to increase the oxide
gold-silver resource base to +300,000 Oz Au eq, to provide the basis for a low
cost 30-50,000 Oz gold equivalent per year open pit mine based on the Jambi and
Tambang oxide deposits, and to use the cash flow from this plant to fund
exploration for additional resources and progressive expansion of the project.
Way Neki Drilling
During the quarter, the 6 diamond drill hole program at Way Neki was completed.
Drill coordinates have been previously reported. All holes intersected gold
mineralization, but intercepts were narrow and generally low grade, with gold
associated with both clay altered structural zones and or quartz calcite
veining.
The host rocks show intense pervasive chlorite carbonate alteration suggesting
that the Way Neki area represents an outer zone of a large zoned alteration
system. High values obtained from trench samples were not reproduced in primay
cores, suggesting strong surficial enrichment of gold in this area.
Final assays have now been received for the scout drill programmed (Table 4),
with a best intercept of 1m @ 8.13 g/t Au at a depth of 60.72m in WNK04.

While grades for this drilling were generally low, with a best intercept of
4.5m at 1.6 g/t Au and 2.9 g/t Ag from 12m in hole BKJ131, all holes intersected
wide zones of low grade primary mineralization, including
· 26.55m at 0.31 g/t Au from 38m in BKJ131,
· 28m at 0.31 g/t Au from 73m in BKJ 132,

The thickness of oxide mineralization declines rapidly at lower RLs around Jambi
Hill, but the primary gold mineralization remains open to the north, north east,
south-west and at depth. There is an apparent increase in associated pyrite to
the north, and variations in primary gold-silver ratios indicate that large
scale zoning may occur, which will assist in targetting deeper ore zones.
Tambang Supergene Silver-Gold Target
Previous diamond drilling by Finders at Tambang has targetted primary
mineralization, below the zone of oxidation, and has generally shown very poor
core recoveries within the vein zone, resulting from the highly fractured nature
and very uneven hardness of the rock in the vein zone. Limited drilling in the
near surface zone has shown very promising assays, despite poor core recoveries,
as tabulated below.

With the target zone ranging from 10m to +25m in width the Tambang vein system
has potential for +300,000t per 100m strike length, to 100m depth, straddling
the zone of potential enrichment and a known strike length of +2km.
A reverse circulation drill rig has been mobilised to test the central 700m of
this zone with close spaced holes, targetting open pittable leachable
silver-gold deposits above the known sulphides.

how the entity's activities have been financed for the past quarter and the

respect of interests in mining tenements acquired, exercised or lapsed during
the reporting period. If the entity is involved in a joint venture agreement

a mining tenement, it should disclose the change of percentage interest and
conditions precedent in the list required for items 6.1 and 6.2.
3 Issued and quoted securities The issue price and amount paid up
is not required in items 7.1 and 7.3 for fully paid securities.
