R E V I E W O F A C T I V I T I E S
Audalia Resources Limited is pleased to present its second Annual Report to shareholders and provide some insight into the initial advancement the Company has made in its exploration activities to date and progress it expects to make going forward.
GASCOYNE PROJECT
The Gascoyne Project is located approximately 100 kilometres north of Gascoyne Junction east of the Lyons River and tributaries. The tenements consist of five granted Exploration Licences, E09/1568-70 and E09/1824-25. The Gascoyne Project covers an area of 32,400 Ha (324 km[2] ).
The regional setting of the Gascoyne Project is near the western edge of the Neo-Proterozoic Morrisse Metamorphic Suite rocks with overlying Permo-Carboniferous sediments of the Carnarvon Basin. The metamorphic belt acts as a buffer zone between the Archaean Yilgarn shield and the overlying cratonic Proterozoic Basins and is orientated WNWESE with well-developed schists, shears and intrusives parallel to this dominant strike. Therefore the area is a complex juxtaposition of sediments, granitoids and mafics with accompanying structures such as shears and faults.
The region was explored for gold, base metals and diamonds by large companies such as BHP, MIM, Western Mining and Rio Tinto using regional stream sediment, soil and rock chip sampling. These explorers considered the Gascoyne Province to be prospective for Broken Hill Type (BHT) Ag-Pb-Zn mineralisation based on a study of Zn-bearing spinels (gahnites) in the late 1990s.
Exploration work completed during 2011-12
Rock Chip Sampling
A total of 31 rock chip samples were collected from the Gascoyne Project in July 2011. Samples were assayed for a suite of elements which included Gold (Au), Silver (Ag), Barium (Ba), Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn), Molybdenum (Mo), Nickel (Ni), Lead (Pb) and Zinc (Zn). Samples were analysed with a minimum detection limit of 1 ppm.
Table 1: Tenement rock chip samples register
| Tenement ID | Status | Samples |
|---|---|---|
| E09/1568 | Granted | 5 |
| E09/1569 | Granted | 7 |
| E09/1570 | Granted | 2 |
| E09/1824 | Granted | 14 |
| E09/1825 | Granted | 3 |
Analysis of the rock chip samples returned anomalous values of up to 240 ppm Cu, up to 202 ppm Zn and 138 ppm Pb. In addition, pathfinder elements such Mo (24.3 ppm) and Ba (2550, 2880 ppm) have also returned anomalous values. Table 2 below lists peak anomalous results from the rock chip sampling programme.

Area 1 - E09/1824
Geological and regolith interpretation of 1:25,000 aerial photography was conducted by B. Rees in 2008 for Altera Resources, when iron/manganese-stained gossanous outcrops within E09/1824 were identified. Gossanous outcrop is defined as decomposed rock, derived from the oxidation of sulphides.
These gossan outcrops were located during the July 2011 field trip. At one of the sampled gossan outcrops goethite boxworks derived from pyrite and other sulphides has since returned anomalous Pb, Zn, Cu and Ba assays. Within ELA29/1824 the current rock chip sampling has also returned anomalous Ba values. Barium is closely associated with the Broken Hill style of Pb-Zn mineralisation and therefore its presence in this area is noted as quite favourable. The Ba values returned from the sampling are not of ore grade magnitude.
The anomalous rock chip sample results were plotted over the aeromagnetic data images. There appears to be a correlation between anomalous base metal assays and the conformable chloritic bands in the rock strata, which are believed to have been derived from mafic/basic flows, but may also represent hydrothermal alteration. These mafic iron rich units may be the host rocks base metal mineralisation within the area.
Area 2 - E09/1569
Area 2 zone of anomalism is located in the south east of the tenement E09/1569. Three rock chip samples were collected from the south-eastern part of E09/1569 and provide the first exploration to be completed within this part of the tenement.
Anomalous Zn value of 242 ppm and a Cu value of 240ppm. Highly anomalous pathfinder elements values of Mo (24.3 ppm) and Ba (2550, 2880 ppm) have also been noted. The Mo value is up to 24 times the maximum background threshold of 1 ppm.
The anomalous Zn and Cu in association with the pathfinder elements highlight a geochemical target that needs to be followed up with a systematic auger soil sampling program.

Future Exploration
The rock chip sampling programme of 31 samples and reconnaissance mapping completed during July 2011 have returned encouraging anomalous base metal and pathfinder values that are worthy of follow up exploration work. Some of the anomalous base metal results are associated with gossanous outcrops identified by previously completed geology/regolith interpretation of aerial photography in conjunction with magnetometry.
The Gascoyne Project area remains prospective to host a stratabound lead-zinc (copper) mineralisation of the Broken Hill type. Systematic auger geochemical drilling/sampling, follow-up geophysics programmes and detailed geological mapping is proposed to continue exploration.
A programme of systematic auger geochemical sampling is proposed on a nominal 400m x 50m pattern over anomalism at Area 1. Anomalous samples collected in July 2011 correlate with interpreted chloritic bands in the rock strata which may reflect hydrothermal alteration of the country rock. In addition, these bands correlate with anomalous gossanous outcrop identified in the aerial photography. These factors make Area 1 highly prospective and a priority target for further work to be completed.

MEDCALF PROJECT
The Medcalf Project is located some 470 kilometres south east of Perth near Lake Johnson, Western Australia. The Project comprises three granted Exploration Licences E63/1068, E63/1405 and E63/1406 and covers an area of 1,740 Ha (17.4 km[2] ).
The Medcalf Project lies in the southern end of the Archaean Lake Johnston greenstone belt. This greenstone belt is a narrow, north-northwest trending belt approximately 110 km in length. It is located near the south margin of the Yilgarn Craton, midway between the southern ends of the Norseman-Wiluna and the Forrestania-Southern Cross greenstone belts.
Previous work carried out by numerous holders of the tenements over the last 40 years includes exploration for nickel, titanium/vanadium, platinum group metals (PGM) and gold. The primary vandiferous titanomagnetite mineralisation occurs within the pyroxenite zone between the basal peridotite and upper gabbro zones of the sill. The lateritic weathering of this sill has removed much of the silica, calcium and magnesium in solution thus resulting in residual concentrations of iron, titanium and vanadium oxides. This secondary enrichment potential hosts economic ore.
Exploration work completed during 2011-12
Review of historic exploration activities
A summary of the historic exploration was also completed and collated below:
Unimin/Laporte 1972:
Seven rotary percussion holes – RPH15 to RPH 21 - and two diamond holes – DDHLJ1 and DDHLJ2 – were drilled to test the nickel and vanadium potential at Medcalf.
Amoco 1982:
Twenty eight vertical RAB holes were drilled for a total of 1523m. Selected 1.5m intervals were analysed for V2O5 and TiO2. A number of these were also analysed for nickel, copper, zinc, cobalt and chromium. No sample heaps remains on site.
Arimco 1996:
Three HQ diamond holes – MEDD-1, 2 and 3 - were drilled to a maximum depth of 43m to obtain material for metallurgy. Half core was used for metallurgy. Location of the remaining half core is unknown.
Lionore 2006:
Diamond hole LJPD0091 was designed to test a TEM anomaly.
Norilsk 2010:
Drilled LJPD0091 and 0092.
Mapping/soil sampling
A mapping and soil sampling programme was carried for gold was completed over 9 days, from 13 to 21 January 2012. Geology was mapped by GPS (+/-3m accuracy) at 1:5000 scale onto A3 sheets of 2mm grid graph paper. Old drill collars and grid pegs were picked up where encountered. This mapping is currently being electronically imported into a GIS format. Soil sampling results returned low values for gold. Best result was 16ppb gold. Results received are set out in Table 4 below.

R E M U N E R AT I O N R E P O R T (A U D I T E D )
This Remuneration Report outlines the remuneration arrangements of the Company in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (the Act ) and its regulations. This information has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Act.
For the purposes of this report, key management personnel of the Company are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company.
KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL
The following were key management personnel of the Company at any time during the year and unless otherwise indicated were key management personnel for the entire year:
Directors
| Name | Position held |
|---|---|
| Dato Soo Kok Lim | Executive Chairman |
| Datuk Siew Swan Ong | Executive Director |
| Mr Brent Butler | Non-Executive Director |
| Mr Andrew Kwa | Non-Executive Director (appointed 11 October 2011) |
| Mr Anthony Ho | Non-Executive Director (resigned 17 August 2011) |
REMUNERATION COMMITTEE
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration policies for the directors and executives. If necessary, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee obtains independent advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages given trends in comparable companies and in accordance with the objectives of the Company.
Further information on the Nomination and Remuneration Committee’s role, responsibilities and membership is set out in the section entitled Corporate Governance Statement in this Financial Report.
PRINCIPLES OF REMUNERATION
The remuneration structures explained below are competitively set to attract, motivate and retain suitably qualified and experienced candidates, reward the achievement of strategic objectives and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders. The remuneration structures take into account:
-
the capability and experience of the key management personnel;
-
the key management personnel’s ability to control the achievement of strategic objectives;
-
the Company’s performance including:
-
the growth in share price; and
-
the amount of incentives within each key management person’s compensation.
Given the evaluation and developmental nature of the Company’s principal activity, the overall level of compensation does not have regard to the earnings of the Company.
REMUNERATION STRUCTURE
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive directors’ remuneration is clearly distinguished from that of executives.
14
==> picture [72 x 42] intentionally omitted <==
R E M U N E R AT I O N R E P O R T (A U D I T E D )
REMUNERATION STRUCTURE (continued)
Non-executive director remuneration
The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. Total remuneration for all non-executive directors, last voted upon by shareholders at the 2011 General Meeting, is not to exceed $300,000 per annum. Directors’ fees cover all main board activities and membership of committees.
Non-executive directors do not receive any retirement benefits, other than statutory superannuation, nor do they receive any performance related compensation. Level of non-executive directors’ fees as at the reporting date is as follows:
| Name | Non-executive directors’ fees |
|---|---|
| Mr Andrew Kwa | $20,000 per annum |
| Mr Brent Butler | $20,000 per annum |
Executive remuneration
Remuneration for executives is set out in employment agreements. Details of the employment agreements with the Executive Chairman and Executive Director are provided below.
Executive directors may receive performance related compensation but do not receive any retirement benefits, other than statutory superannuation.
Fixed remuneration
Fixed remuneration consists of base compensation (which is calculated on a total cost basis and includes any FBT charges related to employee benefits including motor vehicles) as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds.
Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee through a process that considers individual and overall performance of the Company. As noted above, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee has access to external advice independent of management.
Short-term incentive
The Company has not set any short-term incentives ( STI ) for key management personnel.
Long-term incentive
Long-term incentives ( LTI ) may be provided to key management personnel in the form of options over ordinary shares of the Company. LTI are considered to promote continuity of employment and provide additional incentive to recipients to increase shareholder wealth. Options may only be issued to directors subject to approval by shareholders in general meeting.
There were no options issued as LTI during the year.
The Company has introduced a policy that prohibits employees and directors of the Company from entering into transactions that operate or are intended to operate to limit the economic risk or are designed or intended to hedge exposure to unvested Company securities. This includes entering into arrangements to hedge their exposure to LTI granted as part of their remuneration package. This policy may be enforced by requesting employees and directors to confirm compliance.
Use of remuneration consultants
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee did not engage the services of a remuneration consultant during the year.
Voting and comments made at the Company’s 2011 Annual General Meeting
The Company received 100% of “yes” votes on its remuneration report for the 2011 financial year. The Company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM or throughout the year on its remuneration practices.

Consequences of performance on shareholder wealth
In considering the Company’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Directors have regard to the following indices in respect of the current financial period:
| following indices in respect of the current financial period: | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2012 | 20111 | |
| Net loss for the year | $393,303 | $97,706 |
| Dividends paid | Nil | Nil |
| Change in share price Share price at beginning of the period |
$0.01 $0.20 |
Nil $0.202 |
| Share price at end of the period | $0.21 | $0.20 |
| Loss per share | 0.49 cents | 0.16 cents |
-
These figures cover the period from incorporation on 27 August 2010 to 30 June 2011.
-
The Company was incorporated on 27 August 2010 with an issued capital of 1 share of $0.20.
Due to the Company currently being in an exploration and evaluation phase, the Company’s earnings are not considered to be a principal performance indicator. However, the overall level of key management personnel remuneration takes into account the achievement of strategic objectives, service criteria and growth in share price.
The overall level of key management personnel remuneration takes into account the performance of the Company since the Company’s incorporation on 27 August 2010. As a result, remuneration was not paid to directors or executives until the Company was admitted to the Official List of ASX in July 2011. Since then, the level of remuneration has remained unchanged, other than the increase or decrease in remuneration levels due to the appointment or resignation of key management personnel. Furthermore, total remuneration for all non-executive directors has remained unchanged since voted upon by shareholders in January 2011.
There were no performance related remuneration transactions during the year.
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
The Company has entered into employment agreements with its Executive Chairman and Executive Director. The employment agreements outline the components of remuneration paid to the executives and are reviewed on an annual basis.
Dato Soo Kok Lim, Executive Chairman, has an employment agreement effective from 4 July 2011 with the Company ( EC Employment Agreement ). The EC Employment Agreement specifies the duties and obligations to be fulfilled by the Executive Chairman. The term of the EC Employment Agreement is 2 years. The Company must pay to Dato Lim $20,000 per annum (exclusive of statutory superannuation) for Dato Lim’s services.
Either Dato Lim or Audalia may terminate the agreement at any time by giving three month’s written notice to the other. Dato Lim has no entitlement to termination payment should he terminate the agreement by written notice. Audalia may, by giving written notice to Dato Lim, immediately terminate the agreement should a number of specified occurrences happen, including a serious breach of the agreement or serious misconduct. Dato Lim has no entitlement to termination payment in the event of removal for misconduct.
Datuk Siew Swan Ong, Executive Director, has an employment agreement effective from 4 July 2011 with the Company ( ED Employment Agreement ). The ED Employment Agreement specifies the duties and obligations to be fulfilled by the Executive Director. The term of the ED Employment Agreement is 2 years. The Company must pay to Datuk Ong $20,000 per annum (exclusive of statutory superannuation) for Datuk Ong’s services.
Either Datuk Ong or Audalia may terminate the agreement at any time by giving three month’s written notice to the other. Datuk Ong has no entitlement to termination payment should he terminate the agreement by written notice. Audalia may, by giving written notice to Datuk Ong, immediately terminate the agreement should a number of specified occurrences happen, including a serious breach of the agreement or serious misconduct. Datuk Ong has no entitlement to termination payment in the event of removal for misconduct.

C O R P O R AT E G O V E R N AN C E S T AT E M E N T
The Board of Directors is responsible for the operational and financial performance of the Company, including its corporate governance. The Company believes that the adoption of good corporate governance adds value to stakeholders and enhances investor confidence.
The Company acknowledges the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations with 2010 Amendments (2[nd] Edition) (the Recommendations ). This Corporate Governance Statement provides details of the Company’s compliance with those Recommendations, or where appropriate, indicates a departure from the Recommendations with an explanation. A checklist summarising the Company’s compliance with the Recommendations is also set out at the end of this statement.
Audalia’s corporate governance policies are available on the Company’s website: www.audalia.com.au.
PRINCIPLE 1: LAY SOLID FOUNDATIONS FOR MANAGEMENT AND OVERSIGHT
Board Charter
The Board is accountable to shareholders for the performance of the Company. The Board operates under the Board Charter that details its functions, responsibilities and powers and those delegated to management.
On appointment, non-executive directors receive formal letters of appointment setting out the terms and conditions of appointment. The formal letter of appointment covers the matters referred to in the guidance and commentary for Recommendation 1.1. Executive directors are employed pursuant to employment agreements.
Evaluation of the performance of senior executives
The performance of senior executives will be evaluated in accordance with the Performance Evaluation Process. Subsequent to the end of the reporting period, the nomination committee will conduct performance evaluations for senior executives in accordance with the process disclosed.
The Board Charter and Performance Evaluation Process are available on the Company’s website.
PRINCIPLE 2: STRUCTURE THE BOARD TO ADD VALUE
Composition of the Board
The Board consists of the Executive Chairman, Executive Director and two non-executive directors. Details of their skills, experience and expertise and the period of office held by each director have been included in the Directors’ Report. The number of board meetings and the attendance of the directors are set out in the Directors’ Report.
The roles of Chairman and the Executive Director are not exercised by the same individual. The Board Charter summarises the roles and responsibilities of the Chairman, Dato Lim, and the Executive Director, Datuk Ong.
Independence of non-executive directors
The Board has assessed the independence of the non-executive directors using defined criteria of independence and materiality consistent with the guidance and commentary for Recommendation 2.1.
Although Mr Butler and Mr Kwa hold 530,000 and 250,000 fully paid ordinary shares respectively and Mr Butler holds 15,000 options in the Company, the Board considers this immaterial. Messrs Butler and Kwa are regarded as independent as they are not substantial shareholders as defined by the Corporations Act .
The Company is at variance with Recommendations 2.1 and 2.2 in that the majority of directors are not independent and the Chairman is not independent. The Board has determined that the composition of the current Board represents the best mix of directors that have an appropriate range of qualifications and expertise, can understand and competently deal with current and emerging business issues and can effectively review and challenge the performance of management. Furthermore, each individual member of the Board is satisfied that whilst the Company may not comply with Recommendations 2.1 and 2.2, all directors bring an independent judgement to bear on Board decisions.

The Board has adopted a Diversity Policy which sets out the Company’s aims and practices in relation to recognising and respecting diversity in employment. The Policy reinforces the Company’s commitment to actively managing diversity as a means of enhancing the Company’s performance by recognising and utilising the contributions of diverse skills and talent from its employees.
The Diversity Policy reflects the matters set out in the commentary and guidance for Recommendation 3.2.

Gender Diversity
The Board is responsible for establishing and monitoring on an annual basis the achievement against gender diversity objectives and strategies, including the representation of women at all levels of the organisation.
The proportion of women within the whole organisation as at the date of this report are as follows:
%
Women employees in the whole organisation 20% Women in senior executive positions 20% Women on the Board of Directors 0%
The Board acknowledges the absence of female participation on the Board of Directors. However, as noted above, the Board has determined that the composition of the current Board represents the best mix of directors that have an appropriate range of qualifications and expertise, can understand and competently deal with current and emerging business issues and can effectively review and challenge the performance of management.
The Company is at variance with Recommendation 3.3 in that it has not set or disclosed measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity in accordance with its Diversity Policy. Due to the size of the Company, the Board does not deem it practical to limit the Company to specific targets for gender diversity as it operates in a very competitive labour market where positions are sometimes difficult to fill. However, every candidate suitably qualified for a position has an equal opportunity of appointment regardless of gender, age, ethnicity or cultural background.
The Code of Conduct and Diversity Policy are available on the Company’s website.

PRINCIPLE 7: RECOGNISE AND MANAGE RISK
Risk Management Policy
Audalia recognises that risk is inherent to any business activity and that managing risk effectively is critical to the immediate and future success of the Company. As a result, the Board has adopted a Risk Management Policy which sets out the Company’s system of risk oversight, management of material business risks and internal control.
Risk oversight
Audalia’s risk management framework is supported by the Board of Directors, management and the Audit and Risk Committee. The Board is responsible for approving and reviewing the Company’s risk management strategy and policy. Management are responsible for monitoring that appropriate processes and controls are in place to effectively and efficiently manage risk. The Audit and Risk Committee also has delegated responsibilities in relation to risk management and the financial reporting process as set out in the Audit and Risk Committee Charter. Further detail regarding the Audit and Risk Committee can be found above at Principle 4: Safeguarding integrity in financial reporting.
Reporting and assurance
When considering the Audit and Risk Committee’s review of financial reports, the Board receives a written statement declaration in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act , signed by the Executive Chairman and Executive Director, that the Company’s financial reports give a true and fair view, in all material respects with, of the Company’s financial position and comply in all material respects with relevant accounting standards. This statement also confirms that the Company’s financial reports are founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control and that the system is operating effectively in relation to financial reporting risks.
Similarly, in a separate written statement the executive Chairman and the Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee also confirm to the Board that the Company’s risk management and internal control systems are operating effectively in relation to material business risks for the period, and that nothing has occurred since period-end that would materially change the position.
The Risk Management Policy is available on the Company’s website.
PRINCIPLE 8: REMUNERATE FAIRLY AND RESPONSIBLY
Nomination and Remuneration Committee
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee has delegated responsibilities in relation to the Company’s remuneration policies as set out in the Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter. The Charter reflects the matters set out in the commentary and guidance for Recommendation 8.1. Further detail regarding the Nomination and Remuneration Committee can be found above at Principle 2: Structure the board to add value.

Non-executive directors’ remuneration policy
The structure of non-executive directors’ remuneration is clearly distinguished from that of executives. Remuneration for non-executive directors is fixed. Total remuneration for all non-executive directors, last voted upon by shareholders at the 2011 General Meeting, is not to exceed $300,000 per annum. Non-executive directors do not receive performance related compensation. Neither the non-executive directors nor the executives of the Company receive any retirement benefits, other than superannuation.
Executive directors’ remuneration policy
As noted previously, the Executive Chairman and Executive Director are employed pursuant to employment agreements. Summaries of these employment agreements are set out in the Remuneration Report.
Further details regarding the remuneration arrangements of the Company are set out in the Remuneration Report.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Reporting entity
The financial report of Audalia Resources Limited for the financial year ended 30 June 2012 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 28 September 2012.
Audalia Resources Limited (the Company ) is a public company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange.
The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Company are described in the Directors’ Report.
Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance
The financial report is a general-purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 , Australian Accounting Standards ( AASBs ) and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board ( AASB ). The financial report of the Company also complies with the International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRSs ) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Basis of measurement
The financial report is prepared on the accruals basis and the historical cost basis.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest dollar unless otherwise stated.
Going concern
The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes realising its assets and extinguishing its liabilities in the normal course of business. At 30 June 2012, the Company had net assets of $2,120,293 (30 June 2011: $2,530,882) and continues to incur expenditure on its exploration tenements drawing on its cash balances. As at 30 June 2012, Company had $894,938 (30 June 2011: $2,361,588) in cash and cash equivalents and $750,000 in held to maturity assets.
Based upon the Company’s existing cash resources, the ability to modify expenditure outlays if required, and the directors’ confidence of sourcing additional funds, the directors consider there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable, and therefore the going concern basis of preparation to be appropriate for the preparation of the Company’s 2012 Financial Report.
In the event that the Company is not able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise assets and extinguish liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in its financial report.
Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, and have been applied consistently by the Company.
Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements and estimates on historical experience and on other various factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the result of which form the basis of the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
29

N O T E S T O T H E F I N AN C I AL S T AT E M E N T S for the year ended 30 June 2012
Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued)
In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are outlined below:
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
The write-off and carrying forward of exploration acquisition costs is based on an assessment of an area of interest’s viability and/or the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
Deferred taxation
Deferred tax assets in respect of tax losses have not been brought to account as it is not considered probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they could be utilised.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Segment reporting
An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. This includes start-up operations which are yet to earn revenues. Management will also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the level of segment information presented to the Board of Directors.
Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the chief operating decision makers – being the Board of Directors.
Impairment of assets
Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above.
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost less any impairment losses recognised. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. An allowance account (provision for impairment of trade receivables) is used when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due.
Held-to-maturity investments
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Company’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Held-tomaturity financial assets are included in non-current assets, except for those with maturities less than 12 months from the end of the reporting period, which are classified as current assets.

N O T E S T O T H E F I N AN C I AL S T AT E M E N T S for the year ended 30 June 2012
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. Events may occur or information may come to hand after the issue of this report which may materially alter the carrying value of this asset. Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made. When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. Costs of site restoration are provided over the life of the facility from when exploration commences and are included in the costs of that stage. Site restoration costs include the dismantling and removal of mining plant, equipment and building structures, waste removal, and rehabilitation of the site in accordance with clauses of the mining permits.
Such costs are determined using estimates of future costs, current legal requirements and technology on an undiscounted basis. Any changes in the estimates for the costs are accounted on a prospective basis. In determining the costs of site restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration due to community expectations and future legislation. Accordingly the costs are determined on the basis that the restoration will be completed within one year of abandoning the site.
Trade and other payables
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the Company. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 60 days. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Employee benefits
Provision is made for employee benefits accumulated as a result of employees rendering services up to the reporting date. These benefits include wages and salaries, annual leave, and long service leave.
Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and any other employee benefits expected to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date are measured at their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates which are expected to be paid when the liability is settled. All other employee benefit liabilities are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. In determining the present value of future cash outflows, the market yield as at the reporting date on national government bonds, which have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability, are used.
Contributed equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Revenue recognition
Revenue represents interest received and reimbursements of exploration expenditures and is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and can be reliably measured. Interest income is recognised as it accrues.
Income tax
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Income tax (continued)
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:
-
(a) except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
-
(b) in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:
-
(a) except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
-
(b) in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the income statement.
The Company has unused tax losses. However, no deferred tax balances have been recognised, as it is considered that asset recognition criteria have not been met at this time.
Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
-
When the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable.
-
Receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as part of operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
Leases
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income on a straightline basis over the lease term.

-
AASB 2011-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Extending Relief from Consolidation, the Equity Method and proportionate Consolidation (AASB 127, 128 and 131)
The adoption of these standards did not have any impact in the current period and is unlikely to affect future periods.
New accounting standards and interpretations that are not yet mandatory
The following standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been identified as those which may impact the entity in the period of initial application. They have not been applied in preparing this financial report:
-
(i) AASB 9 Financial Instruments, AASB 2009-11 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 and AASB 2010-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010) (effective from 1 January 2013)
-
AASB 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The standard is not applicable until 1 January 2013 but is available for early adoption. When adopted, the standard is not expected to impact on the Company’s accounting for financial assets as it does not have any available for sale assets. There will be no impact on the Company's accounting for financial liabilities, as the new requirements only affect the accounting for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss and the Company does not have any such liabilities. The Company has decided not to early adopt AASB 9.
-
(ii) AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, AASB 2011-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 13 (effective from 1 January 2013)
-
AASB 13 establishes a single framework for measuring fair value of financial and non-financial items recognised at fair value in the statement of financial position or disclosed in the notes in the financial statements. Additional disclosures are required under the standard for items measured at fair value in the statement of financial position, as well as items merely disclosed at fair value in the notes to the financial statements. This standard is not applicable until 1 January 2013 but is available for early adoption. When adopted, the standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company has decided not to early adopt this amendment.
-
(iii) AASB 1053 Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards and AASB 2010-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Reduced Disclosure Requirements (effective from 1 July 2013)
-
On 30 June 2010 the AASB officially introduced a revised differential reporting framework in Australia. Under this framework, a two-tier differential reporting regime applies to all entities that prepare general purpose financial statements. Audalia Resources Limited is listed on the ASX and is not eligible to adopt the new Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements. The two standards will therefore have no impact on the financial statements of the entity.

N O T E S T O T H E F I N AN C I AL S T AT E M E N T S for the year ended 30 June 2012
- (iv) Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income, Amendments to IAS Presentation of Financial Statements (effective from 1 July 2012)
This standard is not applicable until 1 January 2012 but is available for early adoption. When adopted, the standard is not expected to impact on the Company’s financial statements as it does not have any Other Comprehensive Income. The Company has decided not to early adopt this amendment.
- (v) IAS 19 Employee Benefits (effective from 1 January 2013)
This standard is not applicable until 1 January 2013 but is available for early adoption. When adopted, the standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements as it only has a minimum level of employees. The Company has decided not to early adopt this amendment.
- (vi) Amendments to Australian Accounting Standard to Remove Individual Key Management Personnel Disclosure Requirements (effective from 1 July 2013)
This standard makes amendments to AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to remove the individual key management personnel disclosures requirements with an effective date of 1 July 2013. Early adoption of this standard is not permitted.
Comparatives
The Company was incorporated on 27 August 2010. Accordingly the comparative information is for the period from incorporation to 30 June 2011.
2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
Overview
The Company has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:
-
credit risk
-
liquidity risk
-
market risk
This note presents information about the Company’s exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included in Note 21.
Audalia’s risk management framework is supported by the Board, management and the Audit and Risk Committee. The Board is responsible for approving and reviewing the Company’s risk management strategy and policy. Management are responsible for monitoring that appropriate processes and controls are in place to effectively and efficiently manage risk. The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for identifying, monitoring and managing significant business risks faced by the Company and considering the effectiveness of its internal control system. Management and the Audit and Risk Committee report to the Board.
The Board has established an overall Risk Management Policy which sets out the Company’s system of risk oversight, management of material business risks and internal control.
Financial risk management objectives
The overall financial risk management strategy focuses on the unpredictability of the finance markets and seeks to minimise the potential adverse effects on financial performance and protect future financial security.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s cash and cash equivalents. There were no changes in the Company’s credit risk management policies from previous years.
The Company does not hold any credit derivatives to offset its credit exposure.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on estimated future cash flows. The Directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximate their fair values.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the financial liabilities of the Company and the Company’s subsequent ability to meet their obligations to repay their financial liabilities as and when they fall due.
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors. The Board has determined an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Company’s short, medium and longterm funding and liquidity management requirements. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and continuously monitoring budgeted and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets, expenditure commitments and liabilities. There were no changes in the Company’s liquidity risk management policies from previous years.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rates and commodity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising return. There were no changes in the Company’s market risk management policies from previous years.
Interest rate risk
The Company’s exposure to interest rates primarily relates to the Company’s cash and cash equivalents. The Company manages market risk by monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate risk and assessing market forecasts for interest rates.
Other market price risk
The Company is involved in the exploration and development of mining tenements for minerals. Should the Company successfully progress to a producer, revenues associated with mineral sales, and the ability to raise funds through equity and debt, will have some dependence upon commodity prices.
The Company operates within Australia and all transactions during the financial year are denominated in Australian dollars. The Company is not exposed to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period.
Capital management
When managing capital, the Board’s objective is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Board also aims to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.
The Board is constantly adjusting the capital structure to take advantage of favourable costs of capital or high return on assets. As the market is constantly changing, management may issue new shares, sell assets to reduce debt or consider payment of dividends to shareholders.
The Board has no current plans to issue further shares on the market.
The Board seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position although there is no formal policy regarding gearing levels.
The Company has no formal financing and gearing policy or criteria during the year having regard to the early status of its development and low level of activity.
There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

21. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DISCLOSURE
Credit risk
Exposure to credit risk
The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:
| Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Held-to-maturity investments |
Carrying Amount 894,938 2,361,588 24,263 29,471 750,000 - |

21. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DISCLOSURE (continued)
Credit risk (continued)
The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to external credit rating (Standard & Poor’s) if available or to historical information about counterparty default rates:
| Cash at bank and short-term bank deposits A-1+1 Held to maturity investments AA-1 Trade and other receivables No default2 |
2012 $ 2011 $ 894,938 2,361,588 |
|---|---|
| 750,000 - |
|
| 27,826 29,471 |
-
The equivalent S&P rating of the financial assets represents that rating of the counterparty with whom the financial asset is held rather than the rating of the financial asset itself.
-
Trade and other receivables consist of interest receivable, initial listing fee refundable from ASX and security bonds and deposits.
Allowance for impairment loss
A provision for impairment loss is recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual receivable is impaired.
Balances within trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. It is expected that these other balances will be received when due.
Liquidity risk
The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities on an undiscounted basis, including estimated interest payments: Cash flows for liabilities without fixed amount or timing are based on conditions existing at year end.
| 30 June 2012 Trade and other payables 30 June 2011 Trade and other payables |

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments
A change of 75 basis points in interest rates would have increased or decreased the Company’s loss by $1,573 (2011: $17,712). The Board assessed a 75 basis point movement as being reasonably possible based on short term historical movements. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on estimated future cash flows. The Directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximate their fair values.
AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:
-
(a) quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1)
-
(b) inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (level 2), and
-
(c) inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (level 3).
All of the Company’s assets and liabilities measured and recognised at fair value at 30 June 2012 and 30 June 2011 are classified as level 3.
22. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO REPORTING DATE
Subsequent to balance date, the Company acquired the Lake Johnston Project (the Lake Johnston Project ) located in the Yilgam region of Western Australia for a cash consideration of $55,000 (exclusive of GST). The Lake Johnston Project is located adjacent to Audalia’s existing Medcalf Project and comprises eight prospecting licences P63/1528, P63/1529, P63/1533, P63/1532, P63/1531, P63/1530, P63/1560 and P63/1561, and two granted exploration licences E63/1133 and E63/1134.
The financial effect of the above transaction has not been brought to account in the financial statements for the year.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
