entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting. If you are not a
registered Shareholder at the Record Date, you will not be entitled
to vote in respect of that Share.
If you cannot attend the Meeting in person, you are encouraged
to sign and deliver the accompanying proxy form and return it in
accordance with the instructions set out below.
APPOINTMENT OF PROXIES
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General
Meeting may appoint an individual or a body corporate as a proxy to
attend the Meeting and, on a poll, vote on the Shareholder's
behalf. A proxy need not be a Shareholder. A Shareholder entitled
to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify
the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to
exercise. The enclosed proxy form provides further details on
proxies and lodging proxy forms. If a Shareholder appoints a member
of KMP or a Closely Related Party of any member of KMP as proxy,
the KMP or Closely Related Party is not able to vote proxies on
Resolution 1 unless the Shareholder directs them how to vote by
marking the boxes on the proxy form for Resolution 1. If a
Shareholder appoints the Chairman of the Meeting as proxy, the
Shareholder can direct the Chairman how to vote by either marking
the relevant boxes on the proxy form (i.e. 'for', 'against' or
'abstain') OR by marking the Chairman's voting direction box on the
proxy form (in which case this will be considered to be an express
direction to the Chairman of the Meeting to vote in favour of
Resolution 1 even though Resolution 1 is connected directly or
indirectly with the remuneration of a member of KMP and/or even if
the Chairman of the Meeting has an interest in the outcome of this
Resolution. If no direction is provided and the Chairman's voting
box is not marked (or if the direction is to 'abstain') the
Chairman of the Meeting will not be able to cast the Shareholder's
votes on Resolution 1 and those votes will not be counted in
calculating the required majority on a poll.
Subject to the paragraphs above, if a Shareholder appoints the
Chairman of the Meeting as the Shareholder's proxy and does not
specify how the Chairman is to vote on a Resolution, the Chairman
will vote, as proxy for that Shareholder, in favour of that
Resolution on a poll. For Shareholders registered on the Australian
register, section 250B of the Corporations Act stipulates that the
proxies must be delivered prior to 10:30 am (Sydney time) on
Saturday, 26 May 2018 to:

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to explain the
resolutions in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting
and to provide Shareholders with all information known to the
Company that is material to a decision on how to vote on those
resolutions.
The Directors recommend Shareholders read the Notice and this
Explanatory Statement in full before making any decision in
relation to the Resolutions.
Capitalised terms in this Explanatory Statement are defined in
the glossary at the end of this document.
Consider Accounts and Reports
The Corporations Act requires the Director's Report, Financial
Report and Auditor's Report of the Company to be laid before the
Meeting. Accordingly, the reports for the financial year ended
31 December 2017 will be presented for consideration by
Shareholders. No resolution is required on these reports.
The chair of the Meeting will allow a reasonable opportunity for
Shareholders to ask questions or make comments about those reports
and the management of the Company. Shareholders will also be given
a reasonable opportunity to ask the auditor questions about the
conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the
Auditor's Report.
Resolution 1 - Remuneration Report (non-binding resolution)
The Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 31 December
2017 is set out in the Company's 2017 Annual Report. By way of
summary, the Remuneration Report sets out the Company's
remuneration policies and sets out remuneration details for each
Director and other Key Management Personnel of the Company.
Shareholders attending the Meeting will be given a reasonable
opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the
Remuneration Report.
Under the Corporations Act, a listed entity is required to put
to the vote a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted.
The vote on this resolution is advisory only and does not bind the
Directors or the Company. However, if at least 25% of the votes
cast on Resolution 1 are cast against the adoption of the
Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings,
then a 'board spill resolution' must be put to the Shareholders
proposing the calling of a Shareholder meeting to consider the
appointment of Directors.
If a board spill resolution is passed by the Shareholders, the
Company is required to hold a further meeting of Shareholders
within 90 days to consider replacing those Directors (other than
the Executive Chairman of the Company) in office at the time the
Remuneration Report was approved by the Board.
Less than 25% of votes cast at the last Annual General Meeting
of the Company were cast against the resolution to adopt the
Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2016.

may at any time appoint a person to be a director, either to fill a
casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors. Any
Director so appointed holds office only until the following general
meeting and is then eligible for re-election in accordance with
clause 15.6(b) of the Constitution. Listing Rule 14.4 also states
that a director appointed to fill a casual vacancy or as an
addition to the board must not hold office (without re-election)
past the next annual general meeting of the Company.
Mr Wilson was appointed by the Board as a Director on 23 March
2018 and retires in accordance with the Company's Constitution and

The Company seeks approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4
for the ratification of the issue and allotment of the New Redfield
Options.
If this Resolution is approved it is proposed to seek quotation
of the New Redfield Options on the ASX.
The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of
Resolution 8.
Resolution 9 - Approval of the Company's Long term Incentive
Plan
Listing Rule 7.1 requires a listed company to obtain Shareholder
approval prior to the issue of securities representing more than
15% of the issued capital of that company in any rolling 12 month
period.
An exception to Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Listing Rule 7.2
(Exception 9), which provides that issues under an employee
incentive scheme are exempt for a period of 3 years from the date
on which Shareholders approve the issue of securities under the
plan as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.
Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval for a
new employee share plan under Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 9).
The Metminco Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) will replace the
existing Metminco Employee Share Option Plan approved by
Shareholder at the Annual General Meeting on 29 May 2014. This LTIP
has the same terms and conditions as the LTIP approved at the
Annual General Meeting on 29 May 2014. The LTIP establishes the
legal framework under which awards will be made for the purposes of
the Metminco Group's long-term incentive arrangements.
The LTIP follows a review by the Remuneration & Nomination
Committee and the Board of the existing remuneration arrangements.
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee recommends to
Shareholders the implementation of the LTIP. The Annual Report
includes the audited Remuneration Report for each year. The
Remuneration Report discloses the remuneration of each key
management person, including directors, and also their holdings in
securities of the Company and movements in those holdings during
the year.
If any Performance Rights are to be issued to directors of the
Company or other related parties, then the Company will put before
Shareholders a resolution(s) for approval prior to any such
issue(s).
Please note that this Notice includes:-
-- Resolution 10, which seek Shareholder approval for the issue
of 58 million Performance Rights to Mr Kevin Wilson, who is
Executive Chairman of the Company,
-- Resolution 11 which seeks Shareholder approval for the issue
of 14.4 million Options to Mr Higgins, who is a Non-Executive
Director; and
-- Resolution 12 which seeks Shareholder approval for the issue
of 14.4 million Options to Mr Lamont, who is a proposed
Non-Executive Director and, if Resolution 3 is passed, will become
a Non-Executive Director after this Annual General Meeting as a
Non-Executive Director.
It is at this stage no practical to provide a table of the
effect of the impact of dilution of existing Shareholders due the
number of resolutions included in this Notice which are subject to
Shareholder approval. As it is not known at this time if these
resolutions or which of these resolutions will be approved, it is
not practical to provide a table of the impact of dilution through
the issue of these Performance Rights.
The LTIP is designed to align the remuneration of the members of
the LTIP with the achievement of superior and sustainable returns
to Shareholders. The grant of Performance Rights and Options under
the LTIP will be subject to the attainment of targets in terms of
both absolute and relative Total Shareholder Returns. The
Performance Rights and Options will convert into Shares in the
Company, thus incentivising participants by enabling them to
participate in its future growth and prosperity through share
ownership.
It is the opinion of the Board that, until such time as the
Company achieves an operating cash-flow, the issue of Performance
Rights and Options represents a more cost-effective and more
cash-conserving means of attracting and retaining highly qualified
executive management and staff than the payment of cash
compensation.
The LTIP aims to:
-- assist with attracting, motivating and retaining high calibre Directors and employees;
-- align the interest of Directors and employees with
Shareholders by matching rewards with the long-term performance of
the Company; and
-- align the incentives provided to participating Directors and
employees with current market practice.
No securities have previously been issued under the LTIP.
LTIP Rules - Summary
Set out below is a summary of the LTIP Rules which govern the
general terms under which equity securities will be made:
The grant of securities to a Director or employee is subject to
both the LTIP Rules and the terms of the specific grant as set out
in an individual director's or employee's offer document.
The key terms are as follows:
Eligibility:
Eligibility will be maintained for Executive, Non-Executive
Directors and the Executive Chairman.
Vehicle:
Performance Rights and Options will be granted in the form of
incentive rights to Shares or cash-settled incentive rights (at the
discretion of the Board).
Performance hurdles:
Performance Rights and Options will vest in tranches subject to
independent performance hurdles based on the achievement of Key
Performance Indicators.
Frequency of grant and award quantum:
The frequency of grant is at the discretion of the Board, but
Performance Rights and Options are intended to be granted on a
3-year cycle. The total LTIP Performance Right and Options quantum
will be based on a multiple of the participant's remuneration prior
to the commencement of the 3-year cycle (subject to performance, as
determined by the Board), divided by the 20-day VWAP of Shares
prior to the grant.
Vesting/performance period:
Performance Rights and Options under the LTIP will vest after a
three-year performance period (from the date of grant), provided
the relevant performance hurdles and other conditions in the LTIP
Rules are met.
Cessation of employment:
In general, if the participant ceases employment with Metminco
by reason of:
-- termination for cause, unvested awards will be forfeited.
-- resignation, unvested awards will typically be forfeited.
If the participant ceases employment with Metminco in other
circumstances, unvested Performance Rights and Options (pro-rated
for time) will remain 'on foot' and may vest at the end of the
original performance period to the extent performance conditions
are met (subject to Board discretion).
Corporate action/capital reorganisation:
-- If there is a bonus issue to Shareholders, the number of
Performance Rights and Options will be increased by the number of
Shares which the participant would have received if the Performance
Rights and Options had vested before the record date for the bonus
issue.
-- If there is a pro-rata issue (other than a bonus issue) the
number of Performance Rights and Options to which each participant
is entitled will be adjusted in the manner provided for in the
Listing Rules.
-- If, prior to the vesting of any Performance Rights and
Options, there is a reorganisation of the issued capital of the
Company, then the rights of a participant (including the number of
Performance Rights and Options to which each participant is
entitled) is changed to the extent necessary to comply with the
Listing Rules applying to a reorganisation of capital at the time
of the reorganisation.
No dealing/hedging:
A Performance Right or Option granted under and subject to the
LTIP Rules is only transferable:
-- with the consent of the Board; or
-- by force of law upon death to the participant's legal
personal representative or upon bankruptcy to the participant's
trustee in bankruptcy.
Where the participant purports to transfer a Performance Right
or Option other than in accordance with the LTIP Rules, the
Performance Right or Option immediately lapses.
Change of control:
In the event of change of control, the participant's unvested
Performance Rights and Options will be tested at time of change of
control and vest to the extent performance conditions have been
satisfied.
Clawback:
Unvested Performance Rights and Options may be subject to
clawback (at the discretion of the Board) where a participant's
conduct may lead, or may have led, to termination for cause (if the
actions of the participant were known prior to the participant's
cessation of employment).
Post vesting disposal restrictions:
Shares allocated upon vesting of Performance Rights and Options
will not be subject to disposal restrictions.
There are no loans provided to eligible participants of the
LTIP.
Recommendation: The Directors do not make a recommendation on
remuneration of fellow directors as it may be viewed as a conflict
of interest to do so.
Resolution 10 - Approval of the Issue of Performance Rights to
Mr Wilson under the Long Term Incentive Plan
ASX Listing Rule 10.14 requires an entity to not permit a
director to acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme
without the approval of Shareholders.
Therefore, if Resolution 9 is approved by Shareholders then the
Company intends to issue Performance Rights to Mr Wilson.
ASX Listing Rule 10.15A the following information is
provided:-
-- It is the intention of the Board to propose the issue of a
total of up to 58 million Performance Rights over approximately
three years, split into five equal tranches of approximately
11,600,000 Performance Rights with both performance and share price
vesting conditions as follows:
-- Tranche 1 - 11,600,000 Performance Rights vesting on a 30 day
VWAP of 1.2 cents before December 31 2018;
-- Tranche 2 - 11,600,000 Performance Rights vesting on a 30 day
VWAP of 1.6 cents before December 31, 2019;
-- Tranche 3 - 11,600,000 Performance Rights vesting on delivery
of a resource of at least 1 million ounces gold at Tesorito before
December 31, 2019 ;
-- Tranche 4 - 11,600,000 Performance Rights vesting on a 30 day
VWAP of 2.4 cents before December 31, 2020; and
-- Tranche 5 - 11,600,000 Performance Rights vesting on delivery
of a resource of at least 1 million ounces gold at Chuscal before
December 31, 2020.
The 58 million Performance Rights have a nil issue price. The
Non-Executive Directors and executive are eligible to participate
in the LTIP.
The terms of the Performance Rights are:-
-- They are upon vesting Shares at nil cost; and
-- Will be on the same terms and rank equally with all other Shares issued by the Company.
There are no further terms. The Performance Rights are governed
by the LTIP as disclosed in the explanatory statement above for
resolution 9.
The 58 million Performance Rights are seen as incentivising Mr
Wilson to achieve either share price targets or resources at
exploration targets that if achieved will be to the benefit of all
Shareholders. The number of Performance Rights to be provided to Mr
Wilson was a decision of the Board upon the appointment of Mr
Wilson as Executive Chairman. The number of Performance Rights to
be provided and their terms were negotiated between Mr Wilson and
the Board at the time of his appointment. There is no other
disclosure as to why the specified number of Performance Rights is
to be granted to Mr Wilson and why the specified value of the
Performance Rights was chosen.
The Company has engaged Value Logic Pty Ltd to provide an
independent valuation of the Performance Rights to be issued to Mr
Wilson and using the Monte Carlo Simulation, ValueLogic has valued
the Performance Rights at $331,894. The assumptions used by Value
Logic Pty Ltd are as follows:-

Company;
(f) a notice of exercise is only effective when the Company has
