NELSON BAY RIVER IRON PROJECT (NBR)
Exploration
The exploration activities included data review, geological reconnaissance, estimation of iron ore resources (based on earlier drilling) for the Nelson Bay River Project (NBR), metallurgical studies, field visits of tenements, statutory reporting, etc.
Resource Estimation
During 2011-12, the company drilled 1,259 m RC along 23 holes for DSO resource delineation. As a consequence of this RC drilling, the DSO resource estimates were revised. The revised DSO resource estimates at 0.7 Mt show an increase of 55% in the resources over the 2010 figures of 0.45 Mt with similar iron and other element values. The revised resource estimates made for the goethitic-hematite (DSO and BFO) mineralisation for the Project are given in Table 1.

(Average density 3t/m3; the use of significant figures does not imply precision; minor rounding errors)
No drilling during 2011 was carried out for the BFO resource area thus the values for the BFO resource have been retained from the 2010 Resource Estimate. However, reinterpretation of the geology based on the information gleaned from the 2011 drilling highlighted a zone of resource in this area ranging from 90,000 to 200,000 tonnes at

DIRECTORS REPORT
54.5 to 55.5% Fe. Shree believes that this material, using Platts 52% Fe index as a reference point, could be sold as low-grade DSO and thus has the potential to increase the size of the DSO resources
Metallurgical Studies
During the year further metallurgical studies of the two BFO Composites continued. The two composites are different in their mineral composition, but have similar iron grade 53% (Fe). Composite-1 contains higher percentage of hematite with high silica and low (<1%) levels of alumina, phosphorous and sulphur, where as Composite-2 has higher magnetite content with high silica and greater than 2% alumina with very low P and S (Table 2).

| Composite-2 | 53.1 | 13.9 | 2.58 | 0.013 | 0.05 | 4.0 |
LIMS Testing
Composite-2 was tested over coarse LIMS at a variety of magnetic strengths (Table 2). The 600 Gauss pass produced an upgraded product with Fe 57.5%, SiO211.5%, and Al2O3 1.55% at 82.3% mass recovery (Table 3).

| Head-grade | 100 | 54.4 | 100 | 13.4 | 100 | 2.41 | 100 |
Remarks
The upgrade process for BFO should be based on Low Intensity (600 Gauss) Magnetic Separation. The mass recovery at approximately 82% is attractive. Moreover, this also suggests a substantial reduction in capex cost compared to Gravity separation route and hence more economical over the latter. Additionally, the reduction in alumina of the LIMS BFO concentrate makes it an attractive product for blending.
Statutory approvals progress
Mining Lease
A mining lease application (MLA 3 M, 2011) which was submitted to Mineral Resources Tasmania earlier for Category 1 products (metallic substances) was amended to add Category 3 products (construction minerals) as an additional category. The amendment was made to provide for the possible beneficial use of suitable parts of waste rock which Shree has identified as potential future opportunities for purposes, such as road base. Test work has confirmed the characteristics of waste rock to required specifications for such use.

DIRECTORS REPORT
Comment: On 13[th] September the Tasmanian Government has Granted a Mining Lease for mining at the Nelson Bay River Iron Project.
Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBCA)
The Company referred its proposal for developing a mine to the Commonwealth Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (the Department) in February 2011. The Minister, the Hon Tony Burke MP, determined in March 2011 that the proposal was a controlled action and required the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) under Part 8 of the EPBC Act. Guidelines for preparation of EIS were issued in July 2011 following public consultation by the department. Draft EIS was submitted to the department & finalized for public exhibition period commencing in December 2011.
The public exhibition & comment period for the draft EIS was completed in February with only one submission received. A response along with final EIS has been submitted for final assessment & these documents are available for public viewing.
Comment: Decision on approval is awaited.
Environmental Management and Pollution Control Act 1994
A Notice of Intent (NOI) was submitted on 23 March 2011 to the Board of the Environment Protection Authority’s (EPA). In May 2011, EPA issued Guidelines for the preparation of a Development Proposal and Environmental Management Plan for Shree Minerals – Nelson Bay River Magnetite Mine, Tasmania in May 2011. Draft DPEMP was submitted to the EPA & finalized for public exhibition period commencing in December 2011.
The public exhibition & comment period for the draft DPEMP was completed in January with two submissions received (including one being a common to draft EIS). Further discussions with EPA including iteration on further requirements based on assessment by various Government agencies were satisfactorily completed to finalise the DPEMP.
Comment: On 26[th] July 2012 the Board of the Tasmanian Environment Protection Authority (EPA) after a very long and rigorous assessment process gave approval for mining at the Nelson Bay River Iron Project with conditions that the mine will proceed in accordance with best practice environmental management, including measures to prevent acid drainage, to protect and enhance wildlife habitat and to minimise the risk of road kill by confining product transport to daylight hours.
Mine Development Application
During the year application for mine development at the Nelson Bar River Project was lodged with the Circular Head Council.
Comment: Approval for mine development was received on 24[th ] August 2012; this completes the Tasmanian planning and environmental approval requirements.
Project development
-
Various studies confirm the viability of the project to become a producer of iron ore in North West Tasmania.
-
The Project is located in close proximity to existing infrastructure within an established mineral province with active mining in the region of North West Tasmania.
-
The Project has three types of resources: Direct Shipping Iron (DSO), Beneficiable low-grade resource (BFO) and Magnetite resource

SULPHIDE CREEK (EL 43/2008)
Desk studies and exploration work has confirmed presence of "gold mineralisation" from near surface to depths greater-than 180 m at the tenement and the occurrence of gold mineralisation in the area is attributed to hydrothermal activities. Therefore, the Company decided to get an in depth knowledge on the mineralising processes and has commenced work on getting the available core (1,877 m) logged using HyLogger. Due to high demand on the instrument during the reporting period only 993.2 m along 6 diamond drill holes was logged.
The HyLogger uses reflectance spectroscopy and high-resolution imagery to scan drill core and identifies various minerals common to many geological units and hydrothermal alteration assemblages.
The logged info along with assays, geological logs, and previous technical reports are being studied by specialists in spectroscopic interpretation for data interpretation and advice on further drill targets.

MT. SORELL (EL 42/2008)
During the report period geological reconnaissance of tenement’s geophysical targets (Figure 1) for VolcanicHosted Massive Sulphide (VHMS) mineralisation was carried out. The planned work grid is shown in Figure 2. The reconnaissance included geological examination of geophysical target areas, some magnetic susceptibility readings, and collection of rock chip and soil samples. During field work besides geological examination 8 rock chip and 205 soil samples were collected.
On first pass, the contact between the Tyndall and Central Volcanic Complexes, considered potential geological feature for hosting VHMS mineralisation appears to be present in the tenement. During reconnaissance dark green finegrained chloritic volcanics were located; basalt commonly being present at the VHMS horizon within the Mount Read Volcanics. It is possible that this may represent Cambrian mafic volcanics.
In general Zn is lower than peak analysis from the previous survey. Au in soils appears to reflect weakly elevated values coincident with the Zn anomalism, but also the quartz veining. Significant contamination from eluvial sources is possible with this dataset.
A detailed study of the collected information is in progress for planning further exploration in the tenement.

MT. BERTHA (EL 42/2004)
During reporting period, a 2-week long reconnaissance fieldwork was undertaken. Fieldwork mainly targeted 3 magnetic highs (ABC – Figure 3) close to easy access (Savage River Pipeline access road). The primary target is magnetite, analogous to the Savage River Iron Ore deposit that lies ~30km SW along strike within the Arthur Metamorphic Complex (AMC). The potential for other commodities (Cu and Au) was also considered.
Traverses to anomalies A, B and C, as well as along the Pipeline Track were undertaken. Magnetic susceptibility meter was used to record magnetic intensity of rocks from the targeted areas. Field data included collection of magnetic susceptibilities, rock chip sampling, and reconnaissance geology of the areas examined.
A total of 166 magnetic intensity readings were recorded, which will be used in refining magnetic modelling of the area; in particular allowing characterisation of the Tertiary Basalts which are widespread and mask potential subsurface magnetite mineralisation within the Arthur Metamorphic Complex (AMC) schists.
Additionally, 17 rock chip samples were collected for geochemical studies. The samples included both typical and magnetic basalt as well as the Arthur Metamorphic Complex quartz-vein containing schists. The later, samples are aimed to assess potential for Cu and Au mineralisation in the tenement.
Data analysis shows that anomalous magnetic susceptibility is generally >5 SI. However, in basalts it ranged from 10 to 51.6 SI. Anomalous magnetic susceptibilities were located in basalts at all magnetic anomalies investigated. The AMC schists locally returned anomalous values in the range from 5 to 9.09 SI, favourably indicating a likely relationship to an overprinting magnetite mineralising event.
The analytical results of the 17 rock chip samples show some anomalous values of Scandium (36.5 ppm), Yittrium (28.9 ppm), Lathanum (35 ppm), Cerium (101.5 ppm), etc., which need examination. The study of these and related elements’ significance along with selected petrography will be the subject for the coming reporting period.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Non-executive remuneration
Shareholders approve the maximum aggregate remuneration for non-executive directors. The Remuneration Committee recommends the actual payments to directors and the Board is responsible for ratifying any recommendations, if appropriate. The maximum aggregate remuneration approved for non-executive directors is currently $200,000.
It is recognised that non-executive directors’ remuneration is ideally structured to exclude equity based remuneration. However, whilst the Company remains small and the full Board, including the non-executive directors, are included in the operations of the Company more intimately than may be the case with larger companies the non-executive directors are entitled to participate in equity based remuneration schemes.
All directors are entitled to have their indemnity insurance paid by the Company.
Profit participation plan
Performance incentives may be offered to directors , executives and senior management of the Company through the operation of a profit participation plan at the ultimate discretion of the Board.
Details of remuneration
Key Management Personnel comprise the executive and non- executive directors only during FY2012.The remuneration for Key Management Personnel of the Company during the year and the previous year was as follows:

Vote on Remuneration Report at 2011 AGM
At the 2011 AGM , 77,868,999 proxy votes were received out of total eligible votes of 95,060,000 . Of the proxy votes received , 40,741,000 proxy votes were excluded as those represented by Key Management Personnel (KMP) or that KMP’s closely related party .
The resolution was adopted with 19,097,999 votes in favour of the resolution. However , the votes cast against the resolution being 18,040,000 votes represented more than 25% of the votes cast setting aside the exclusions as described above.
It is the Company’s understanding that the concern was around share based payments ( being issue of shares partly in lieu of remuneration and services and issue of performance shares in lieu of cash bonus linked with performance milestones) as it was perceived that the share based payments lead to increase in number of issued shares & may put pressure on share prices .
Page 16
S H R E E M I N E R A L S L T D

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2012
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This financial report includes the financial statements and notes of Shree Minerals Limited, a Company domiciled and incorporated in Australia.
Statement of Compliance
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
The financial report includes the separate financial statements of the Company.
Accounting standards include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (“AIFRS”). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial statements and notes thereto comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
The financial report is presented in Australian currency.
Basis of Preparation
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.
The significant accounting policies set out below have been applied in the preparation and presentation of the financial report for the year ending 30 June 2012 and comparative information.
a. Income Tax
The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income).
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.
Page 30
S H R E E M I N E R A L S L T D
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2012
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.
b. Property, Plant and Equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.
The cost of fixed assets constructed within the consolidated group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of land and buildings are credited to a revaluation reserve in equity. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged against fair value reserves directly in equity; all other decreases are charged to the income statement. Each year the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset charged to the income statement and depreciation based on the asset’s original cost is transferred from the revaluation reserve to retained earnings.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including building and capitalised lease assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
| Class of Fixed Asset | Depreciation Rate |
|---|---|
| Plant and equipment | 33% |
| Office equipment | 20% |
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Page 31
S H R E E M I N E R A L S L T D
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2012
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.
c. Exploration, evaluation and development 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 successful development on the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage which permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserve.
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 area 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.
d. Leases
Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership that is transferred to entities in the economic entity, are classified as finance leases.
Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period.
Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term.
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term.
e. Financial Instruments
Recognition and Initial Measurement
Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is adopted for financial assets that are delivered within timeframes established by marketplace convention.
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity is no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations
Page 32
S H R E E M I N E R A L S L T D
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2012
are either discharged, cancelled or expire. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are classified at fair value through profit or loss when they are held for trading for the purpose of short term profit taking, where they are derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
(ii) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
(iii) Held-to-maturity investments
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated as such or that are not classified in any of the other categories. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.
(v) Financial Liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Derivative instruments
Derivative instruments are measured at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are taken to the income statement unless they are designated as hedges.
Fair value
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the group assess whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the
Page 33
S H R E E M I N E R A L S L T D
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2012
instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
f. Impairment of Non Financial Assets
At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
g. Interests in Joint Ventures
The Company’s share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of joint venture operations are included in the appropriate items of the financial statements.
h. Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Those cash flows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cash flows.
Equity-settled compensation
The group operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using a Black–Scholes pricing model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at each reporting date such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.
i. Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2012
j. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of 12 months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet
k. Revenue
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
l. Goods and Services Tax (“GST”)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office (“ATO”). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.
m. Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
n. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the group.
Key Judgements – Deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation costs are carried forward where right of tenure of the area of interest is current. These costs are carried forward in respect of an area that has not at balance sheet date reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves, refer to the accounting policy stated in note 1(c).
Key Judgements Share based payment transactions
The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model or other appropriate methodology, using the assumptions detailed in note 19.

o. Operating segments
Identification and measurement of segments – AASB 8 requires the ‘management approach’ to the identification measurement and disclosure of operating segments. The ‘management approach’ requires that operating segments be identified on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief operating decision maker, for the purpose of allocating resources and assessing performance. This could also include the identification of operating segments which sell primarily or exclusively to other internal operating segments.

The value of Company interest in exploration expenditure is dependent upon the:
-
the continuance of the economic entity rights to tenure of the areas of interest;
-
the results of future exploration; and
-
the recoupment of costs through successful development and exploitation of the areas of interest, or alternatively, by their sale.
The exploration properties may be subjected to claim(s) under native title, or contain sacred sites, or sites of significance to Aboriginal people. As a result, exploration properties or areas within the tenements may be subject to exploration restrictions, mining restrictions and/or claims for compensation. At this time, it is not possible to quantify whether such claims exist, or the quantum of such claims.

(d) Capital risk management
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

Therefore, the focus of the Company’s capital risk management is the current working capital position against the requirements of the Company to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. The Company’s strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. The working capital position of the Company at 30 June 2012 and 30 June 2011 are as follows:
| Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Trade and other payables Working capital position |

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2012
i. Treasury Risk Management
The senior executives of the Company meet on a regular basis to analyse currency and interest rate exposure and to evaluate treasury management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts.
ii. Financial Risks
The main risks the Company is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
Interest rate risk
The Company does not have any debt that may be affected by interest rate risk.
Sensitivity analysis
At 30 June 2012, if interest rates had changed by -/+ 75 basis points from the weighted average rate for the year with all other variables held constant, post-tax loss for the Company would have been $21,577 lower/higher (2011 - $19,179 lower/higher) as a result of lower/higher interest income from cash and cash equivalents.
Liquidity risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate unutilised borrowing facilities are maintained.
Credit risk
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognised financial assets, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements.
The Company does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the economic entity.
b. Fair value estimation
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. All financial assets and financial liabilities of the Company and the parent entity at the balance date are recorded at amounts approximating their carrying amount.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Company is the current bid price.
The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.
c. Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rate for each class of financial assets and financial liabilities comprises:

-
Price at Grant : 0.12 per share.
