EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

Item 2 - Remuneration Report

The Remuneration Report is contained in the Directors' Report, part of the Company's 2012 Annual Report. The report explains the Company's executive remuneration practices and the link between the remuneration of employees and the Company's performance and sets out remuneration details for each director and for each named executive.
The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ("Corporations Act") requires listed companies to put the Remuneration Report for each financial year to a resolution of members at their Annual General Meeting. Under the Corporations Act, the vote is advisory only and does not bind the Company or its directors. The Board will consider the vote and comments made by shareholders on the Remuneration Report at the meeting when reviewing the Company's remuneration policies. If 25% or more of votes that are cast are voted against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive AGMs, shareholders will be given the opportunity to vote at the second of those AGMs on a resolution ("spill resolution") that another meeting be held within 90 days at which all of the Company's directors (other than the Managing Director) must stand for re-election. At the Company's 2011 Annual General Meeting, only 12.32% of the votes cast by members were against the adoption of the Remuneration Report.

3

Where the chairperson of the meeting is authorised to do so, undirected proxies held by the chairperson
will be voted in favour of Resolution 2 (Remuneration Report) even though the resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the key management personnel. However, if a director of the Company or any other of the Company's key management personnel (or any of their closely related parties) is appointed as a proxy, they will not cast any votes in respect of Resolution 2 that arise from any undirected proxies they hold. "Key management personnel" of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2012 are identified in the Remuneration Report, which formed part of
the Company's 2012 Annual Report. The "closely related parties" of the Company's key management personnel are defined in the Corporations Act, and include certain of their family members, dependants and companies they control.
If you choose to appoint a proxy, the Company encourages you to direct your proxy how to vote on Resolution 2 (Remuneration Report) by marking either "For", "Against" or "Abstain" for this item of business on the proxy form.

The directors make no recommendation with respect to voting.

Item 3 - To re-elect a director - Mr Michael Stephen Perry BCom (Melb.), FCA, SA Fin MAICD

Mr Michael Stephen Perry was appointed to the Board on 13 October 2009. In accordance with Clause
5.3(c)(i) of the Company's constitution, which provides that one third of the directors for the time being must retire at each annual general meeting, Mr Perry retires and, being eligible, offers himself for re- election.
Mr Perry holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Melbourne, is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia and a member of CPA Australia. He is also a Senior Associate of the Financial Services Institute of Australasia and a member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors.

Item 4 - To elect a director - Mr Hanjing Xu

Mr Hanjing Xu joined the Board of Admiralty as an independent non-executive director on 2 August
2012. In accordance with Clause 5.2(a)(ii) of the Company's constitution, which provides that a director who was appointed by the other directors will hold office only until the next annual general meeting, Mr Xu retires and, being eligible, offers himself for election.
Mr Xu is an experienced company director and has had more than 25 years of service with resource companies in a wide range of mining situations, commodities and overseas jurisdictions.

4 Industry Corporation ("CNNC") where he led the Chinese corporation in its opening to international resource industry with a number of breakthroughs in Chinese mining industry, including first trade investment in alumina, first international project finance for mining, and first international company
