Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability
Note: Mineral Reserves are included in Mineral Resources. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Depleted for mining as at December 31, 2010 and does not include any depletion for mining since such date. The Mineral Reserve estimate was reviewed and optimized by Mark Edwards who is a qualified person as such term is defined in National Instrument 43-101 and has supervised the preparation of the technical information and data included in this news release. The mineral resource estimate was generated using the following parameters: Models used have been reviewed and optimized by Mark Edwards and Fleur Muller Model technique is Ordinary Kriging, Multiple Indicator Kriging or Inverse Distance (review NI43-101 for more details) Mineralization wireframes conducted on 0.4-2g/t material with a minimum width of 1-2m depending on deposit and mineralization styles High grade top cut used of 2-40g/t depending on statistical review of sample results 1m metre samples with core half core or split RC samples used in models Samples were generally submitted to NAL and analyzed using 50g fire assay with AAS finish, some samples were submitted to umpire laboratory for QAQC purposes

* Gold Deposits of the Northern Territory by Ahmad, Wygralak and Ferenczi, 2009. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify this historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. Crocodile Gold is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves and the historical estimate should not be relied upon. Crocodile Gold believes with minimal confirmatory drilling this historic resource information could be included in the Mineral Resource inventory.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated or Inferred Resources The information presented uses the terms measured, indicated and inferred mineral resources. United States investors are advised that while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize these terms. Inferred mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be converted into mineral reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
