Prospectus - Kingsrose Mining

Section 7
Risk Factors
7.1 Introduction
An investment in the Shares the subject of this Prospectus is highly speculative as the Company is a gold
mining company. The Board recommends that investors consider the risks described below and information
contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, as well as consulting with their professional advisers before deciding
whether or not to apply for the Shares.
The following is a non-exhaustive list of the risks that may have a material effect on the financial position and
performance of the Company and the value of its securities, as well as the Company’s development and mining
activities and an ability to fund those activities.
The risks below are some of the risks specific to the Company including by reason of its involvement in the
resource industry. The general investment risks below are some of the risks to the Company of a general
economic nature.
7.2 Specific Risks
Development and Mining
Possible future development of mining operations at any of the Company’s projects is dependent on a
number of factors and avoiding various risks including, but not limited to, failure to acquire and/or delineate
economically recoverable ore bodies, unfavourable geological conditions, failing to receive the necessary
approvals from all relevant authorities and parties, unseasonal weather patterns, excessive seasonal weather
patterns, unanticipated technical and operational difficulties encountered in extraction and production
activities, mechanical failure of operating plant and equipment, unexpected shortages or increases in the price
of consumables, spare parts and plant and equipment, cost overruns, risk of access to the required level of
funding and contracting risk from third parties providing essential services.
In production, operations may be disrupted by a variety of risks and hazards which are beyond the Company’s
control, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, technical failures, labour disputes, unusual
or unexpected rock formations, flooding and extended interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather
conditions and fires, explosions and other accidents.
By the Joint Venture Agreement the Company will be at risk to lose its Joint Venture interest if a gold
production milestone of 25,000 ounces of gold is not achieved by 31 May 2009.
Resource Estimations
Resources estimates are expressions of judgment based on knowledge, experience and resource modelling. As
such, resource estimates are inherently imprecise and rely to some extent on interpretations made.
Additionally, resource estimates may change over time as new information becomes available. Should the
Company encounter mineralisation or geological formations different from those predicted by past drilling,
sampling and interpretations, resource estimates may need to be altered in a way that could adversely affect
the Company’s operations. In particular, high grade, quartz vein mines of which the Sand Queen Gold
Mine is an example do not have uniform grade throughout their resources and resource width, indicated by
mineralized drill intersections cannot always be extrapolated between holes.
Exploration
Investors should understand that gold exploration, development and mining is by its nature a high risk
undertaking. There can be no assurance that the Company’s exploration of its existing projects or any other
exploration or mining projects that may be acquired in the future will result in the discovery of a significant
mineral resource. Even if a further significant mineral resource is identified, there can be no guarantee that it
can be economically exploited or that the Sand Queen Gold Mine will be economically viable.
Title
All of the tenements or licences in which the Company has or may earn an interest in will be subject to
applications for renewal or grant (as the case may be). The renewal or grant of the terms of each tenement or
licence is usually at the discretion of the relevant government authority.
