-- 0.21% CuEq cut-off ($1,400/oz. Au, $3.30/lb. Cu), 5m min. composite
length, 5m max. internal dilution.
-- AuEq= ((Au g/t(i)45.011) + (Cu%(i)72.753))/45.011
-- CuEq= ((Cu%(i)72.753) + (Au g/t(i)45.011))/72.753
-- Diamond drill samples are PQ, HQ or NQ half core, using a nominal 1m
sampling basis and weigh approx. 3-6kg.
-- Assay method: Fire assay Au (50g); Cu by aqua regia digestion with AAS
or ICPMS finish.
-- Intercept widths do not necessarily represent true width.
-- No top cut applied.
-- ((i)) Drill hole terminates in mineralization i.e. mineralization
remains open at depth.
-- The Tulare Porphyry Project comprises the Kiseljak copper-gold deposit,
the nearby Yellow Creek copper-gold target area and the Bakrenjaca gold-
base metal epithermal system.
-- Figure 1 shows a plan view of the current target areas within the Tulare
Porphyry Project.
-- Figure 2 shows a plan view of the Kiseljak/Kiseljak Extension and Yellow
Creek target areas with all diamond drilling to date.
-- Figure 3 shows a representative cross section through the Kiseljak and
Yellow Creek copper-gold porphyry zones.
2. EXPLORATION UPDATE
Yellow Creek:
-- Wide-spaced drilling on a nominal 120 meter by 120 meter spacing on the
Yellow Creek target area during 2013 was focused on better defining the
copper-gold porphyry-style mineralization first discovered during late
2011 in order to develop a robust geological model required to support
the generation of an initial National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101")
compliant resource estimate.
-- In total, nine diamond drill holes (YCDD031 to YCDD039) for a total of
2,722.5m, ten reverse circulation (RC) pre-collars (YCRC001 to YCRC010)
for a total of 1,373m and three diamond drill hole 'tails' (YCDT002,
YCDT004 & YCDT005) for a total of 952.8m were drilled on the project
area during 2013.
-- No significant intersections were generated from the RC and diamond
'tail' drilling portion of the program.
-- A validated database has been delivered to independent mining
consultants AMC in order to produce an initial NI 43-101 compliant
resource estimate for the Yellow Creek target area. The initial Yellow
Creek estimate is expected during Q2 2014.
-- Refer to Table 1 for a summary of Yellow Creek (YCDD031 to YCDD039)
significant intersections received to date.
-- Refer to Dunav Press Releases dated April 10 2012, August 28 2012 and
February 25, 2013 for previously reported significant intersections from
the Yellow Creek target area.
Kiseljak Extension:
-- An additional three diamond drill holes were drilled into the far
southern portion of the Kiseljak deposit following the closure of the
2012 drilling database and subsequent handover to AMC. These drill holes
(see Dunav Press Release dated February 25 2013) extended copper-gold
porphyry-style mineralization to the south of the Kiseljak deposit.
-- During 2013 a further six diamond drill holes (KIDD075 to KIDD080) for a
total of 1,360.4m were completed in this area which has subsequently
been referred to as the 'Kiseljak Extension' area.
-- The Kiseljak database, including Kiseljak Extension drilling, has been
closed off, with the data forwarded to AMC for an updated resource
estimate; this re-estimation is not expected to lead to a material
change in the current Kiseljak deposit resource estimate (with an
effective date of November 26 2012), however the additional drilling
will better define the mineralized 'envelope'.
-- Refer to Table 2 for a summary of 2013 Kiseljak Extension significant
intersections.
3. DISCUSSION
-- The Tulare Copper-Gold Porphyry Project area lies within the Lece
Magmatic Complex of southern Serbia; the second largest magmatic complex
in Serbia after the Timok Magmatic Complex.
-- During 2012, Dunav completed a scoping level assessment on seven
composite samples from the Kiseljak deposit. Additional test work is
required to further refine the process flow sheet; however projected
overall recoveries are currently approximately 85.5% for Cu and
approximately 67% for Au. Good flotation recovery characteristics were
exhibited for both copper and gold at industry standard grind sizes and
a copper-gold concentrate with no deleterious elements was produced.
Preliminary grinding test work showed a medium to soft mineralization
type with a bond work index of approximately 11kWhr/t.
-- Further metallurgical test work was undertaken during 2013 and results
are expected during Q2 2014.

drill holes located spatially in three dimensions:

4. SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS
Diamond drill core has been prepared at the SGS managed laboratory facility at
Bor and assayed at the SGS managed laboratory at Bor. Trench and diamond drill
samples have been assayed for gold by 50 gram fire assay with an AAS finish
whilst copper, silver, lead, zinc and molybdenum have been analysed using an
aqua regia digest with either an AAS or ICPMS finish. A one metre sampling
interval has been used where possible for the Tulare Copper-Gold Porphyry
Project diamond drilling program. Half core is routinely submitted to the
laboratory for analysis. Reverse circulation drill samples have been prepared at
the laboratory facility at Bor and assayed at the laboratory at Bor. A one meter
sampling interval has been used for the Tulare Project reverse circulation
drilling program. Following Dunav standard quality assurance procedures, a full
suite of field and laboratory duplicates and replicates along with
internationally accredited standards and blanks, have been submitted with each
batch of samples. At the SGS managed assay facility in Bor, analysis of drill or
trench samples for gold is routinely carried out using a 50g fire assay charge
with an AAS finish. Silver, lead, zinc and copper are analyzed using an aqua
regia digest (0.3g charge) followed by either an AAS or ICP-MS finish. Sulfur is
analyzed using an Eltra combustion furnace (0.2g charge).
Dr Julian F. H. Barnes, a qualified person under NI 43-101, the Company's
Special Consultant, has approved the preparation of the technical data in this
press release.
