3D AEROMAGNETIC INVERSION STUDY

During the reporting period, a 3D Magnetic Inversion study was carried out with the aim to assist in better planning of the coming drilling program as well as to get a better understanding on the likely continuity of the main magnetic anomaly from north to south at the tenement. The study was based on all available magnetic data from MRT on the area.

The 3D magnetic inversion model (Figure 2) suggests continuity between the Main Body (Northern Anomaly) and the South Anomaly, with in-between areas of non-magnetic material that could be inferred to be oxide mineralisation; scattered iron ore detritus fragments were noticed during recent reconnaissance of the Southern Anomaly area.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

APPROVALS UPDATE

During the financial year 2012-13, all requisite approvals were received to develop a mine at Nelson Bay River Iron Ore Project. These included the Mining Lease, Development Permit by the State Government including EPA Tasmania and the approval from the Australian Commonwealth Government, under EPBC ACT.

There was an appeal against the State planning and environmental permit, which was dismissed by the Tasmanian Resource Management and Planning Appeal Tribunal.

In July 2013, the company received EPBC approval following an application for a judicial review made in June 2013 quarter of the decision made on 18th December 2012 by the Federal Environment Minister to approve the NBR project under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act. The Federal court ordered an injunction in May 2013. Subsequently, the hearing was conducted & decision made by the Court in July 2013. Seven grounds of challenge were put up. Three were abandoned during the course of the case. Three were dismissed by the Court. Only one was upheld that the Minister had failed to comply with a mandatory requirement that he consider an approved conservation advice regarding the Tasmanian Devil. Subsequently, the Minister has done assessment as required under the EPBC Act & granted approval in July 2013.

SULPHIDE CREEK - EL43/2004

The Sulphide Creek tenement contains three principal prospects: Davie, Anomaly 24-28 and Coupon. In 2009/10, the Company drilled diamond drillhole SCDDH4 and 5 for 191 and 200 metres respectively at the Davie Prospect (Figure 3). These holes interested two gold intervals (Table 3). To understand area's gold mineralisation process(s) the Company decided to use CSIRO developed HyLogger to get spectral properties of tenement's intersected mineralogical sequences (lithologies) in drill cores.

FIGURE 3: DAVIE PROSPECT PLAN SHOWING DRILL HOLE LOCATIONS OVER A GRIDDED GOLD IN SOIL ANOMALY

STUDY APPROACH

The exercise was aimed to characterise the iron oxide, hydrous -clay and anhydrous silicate mineralogy of the 3-drillhole cores. Spectroscopic sample resolution was ~8*18 mm sampled every 8 mm along the core. The HyLogging system collects 125 samples per metre of core (before masking). Digital imagery was acquired simultaneously with the mineral spectroscopy with a resolution of ~0.2 mm. Data analysis was carried out using “The Spectral Geologist” (TSG-Hot Core) software.

STUDY FINDINGS

Past studies have made little reference to clay mineralogy. The HyLogging data offers fresh insight that should be valuable in re-thinking mineralised alteration signatures in the region.

A spatial association is observed between the gold (Au) assays and spectroscopic signatures of an alteration mineral assemblage comprising dickite plus hematite, minus white mica and kaolin, occurring at a boundary (gradient) in mica chemistry composition Figure 4.

Figure 4A shows the presence of relative abundance of the iron oxide. The dominant iron oxide here is yellow brown goethite. The deeper the goethite colour the stronger the relative absorption.

Figure 4B of the weighted gold (Au) assays indicates that Au does not occur in intervals without iron oxide development.

FIGURE 4: SPATIAL DISPLAY OF MINERALOGY AND AU DISTRIBUTION IN SCDDH5

(FIGURE 4A: INTENSITY OF IRON OXIDE DEVELOPMENTFIGURE 4B: WEIGHTED AU ASSAY DISTRIBUTION)

During the month of November spectral information from three diamond drill holes from Coupon Prospect, drilled in the period 1993-95, was studied by the consultant. Over all finding are found to be similar to that of Davies Prospect, i.e. a spatial association is observed between the gold (Au) assays and spectroscopic signatures of an alteration mineral assemblage comprising dickite plus hematite, minus white mica and kaolin, occurring at a boundary (gradient) in mica chemistry composition.

In view of the spectral study findings from Davie Prospect, a field reconnaissance of the tenement was undertaken from 11 to 14 December 2012. During reconnaissance at relatively regular intervals from available outcrops, 78 rock chip samples for HyLogger analysis, 17 grab and composite rock chip samples for multielement analysis were collected and dispatched to relevant labs. Assay results from fieldwork conducted have been received. Due to Consultant's heavy commitments elsewhere, analysis of 78 rock chip samples collected for HyLogger analysis are pending and will be attended to during second half of 2013.

A section along ABT railway line cuttings was mapped. A key rail cutting starting from the Coupon access showed moderate to steep west dipping shear – related foliation; similar to Davie Prospect. A number of quartz vein orientations were identified

Observations made during this reconnaissance suggest that detailed geological mapping is required to enhance understanding of Anomaly 24-28 and environs before planning any drilling in the area of Sulphide Creek tenement.

MT. SORELL (EL 42/2008)

During the year, analysis & interpretation was carried out consequent to field trip of May 2012 .Work done by various agencies in the area suggests that the area is prospective for VHMS and structurally controlled gold mineralisation. The 2011/12 fieldwork has identified encouraging signs for the presence of Volcanic Hosted Massive Sulphide (VHMS) mineralisation system in the area; supporting earlier explorers view. When compared the 2011/12 work to currently held VHMS models, the distribution of various soil analyses reveals an effective cross section through a VHMS alteration system in the area (Figure 5).

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

In Mt Sorell area, a principal fluid focus appears to be beneath the Central Clark Zinc Anomaly (CZA). Vectors determined from soil analysis as well as cropping out pervasive silicification and chlorite alteration support this.

Further, the Ti/Zr ratio from the current sampling highlights the presence of a mafic to intermediate (largely basalt) horizon in the study area. Figure 6 shows a spatial distribution of high (mafic) Ti/ Zr ratio corresponding to the aeromagnetic high. Mafic volcanic horizons at the CVC – Tyndall Group boundary in the area are a known VHMS host within the Mount Read Volcanics.

FIGURE 6: GEOLOGY AND OUTLINE PLOT OF TI/ZR RATIO OVER GRIDDED TOTAL MAGNETIC INTENSITY FOR MT SORELL (WTRMP 2002).

Moreover, distribution of anomalous Pb in the area is localised within the strongest Zn anomalous part, as well as Cu in soils is relatively widespread within the identified coherent N-S zone. This broad Zn and Cu distribution is recognised as common to VHMS style mineralisation environments, Gemmell, etc. al. (1998), consider Pb to be a more proximal indicator for mineralisation.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Mt. BERTHA (EL 42/2004)

Over the years, various agencies explored the tenement area and environs and identified several exploration targets (Figure 7). The area is considered potential for magnetite, magnesite and Cu Zn and Au mineralisation in the Arthur Metamorphic Complex (AMC)).

Due to thick vegetation cover, incised by flowing streams, poor outcropping rocks the area is difficult to explore. Shree fieldwork was of low impact in nature and was confined to targets A, B, C and along the Savage River Mine Pipeline (Figure 3). The exploration activities included reconnaissance geological mapping, determining in situ magnetic susceptibility of rock types encountered and collection of 17 rock chip samples.

Study findings

Magnetic susceptibilities for the targets examined are generally >5 SI, with basalts ranging from 10 to 52 SI. The AMC schists returned values in the range 5 to 9 SI, favourably indicating a likely relationship to an overprinting magnetite and Cu, Zn and Au mineralising event; a schist (AMC) sample returned an indicative 35m @ 242 ppm Cu with maximum of 401ppm Cu.

To date work done suggests that the area has all indications for the discovery of a sizable mineralisation of cu, Zn, magnetite, etc.

Continue with the pattern of exploration adapted, i.e., reconnaissance geological mapping, rock chip and soil sampling, ground geophysical work along grid lines, etc.

The Board however, considers it appropriate to retain the flexibility to issue options to executives outside of approved employee option plans in exceptional circumstances; and

  • d. other benefits - directors, executives and senior managers are eligible to participate in superannuation schemes and other appropriate additional benefits.

Remuneration of other executives consists of the following:

  • a. salary - senior executive receives a fixed sum payable monthly in cash;

  • b. bonus - each executive is eligible to participate in a profit participation plan if deemed appropriate;

  • c. long term incentives - each senior executive may, where appropriate, participate in share option schemes which have been approved by shareholders; and

  • d. other benefits – senior executive are eligible to participate in superannuation schemes and other appropriate additional benefits.

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 FY2013.The remuneration for Key Management Personnel of the Company during the year and the previous year was as follows:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2013

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 2013 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2013

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.

R&D tax credits are accounted for when recognised.

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 by directors first when indicators of impairment exist and thereafter annually 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 company 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 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 2013

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income. 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.

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. Mine Development

Accumulated exploration, evaluation and development expenditure in respect of each identifiable area of interest is transferred to mine development once a mineable resource has been established & published as per JORC guidelines and necessary steps to commence a mining development for that area have been commenced.

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.

e. 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 the company, 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.

f. 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

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 2013

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 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.

Page 34

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 2013

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 instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.

g. 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.

h. 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.

i. 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.

Page 35

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 2013

j. 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.

k. 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

l. 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).

m. 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.

n. Comparative Figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.

o. 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).

Page 36

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 2013

Key Judgements – Mine Development expenditure

Mine Development expenditure are carried forward in respect of each identifiable area of interest where a mineable resource has been established & published as per JORC guidelines and has reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment that necessary steps to commence a mining development for that area have been commenced. Refer to the accounting policy stated in note 1(d).

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.

p. 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.

No person entitled to exercise the SPR had or has any right by virtue of the option to participate in any share issue of other body corporate.

(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.

Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Company does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. 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 2013 and 30 June 2012 are as follows:

2,035,457 2,689,528
Cash and cash equivalents

NOTE 17: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

a. Financial Risk Management

The Company’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks and accounts receivable and payable.

Page 47

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 2013

The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for the Company’s operations.

Derivatives are not currently used by the Company for hedging purposes. The Company does not speculate in the trading of derivative instruments.

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 2013, 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 $ 17,791 lower/higher (2012 - $21,577lower/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.

NOTE 18: OPERATING SEGMENTS

The company operates predominately in one segment involved in mineral exploration & development. Geographically, the consolidated entity is domiciled and operates in one segment being Australia. In accordance with AASB 8 Operating Segments, a management approach to reporting has been applied. The information presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income and the Statement of Financial Position reflects the sole operating segment.

NOTE 19: SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

During the year NIL (2012: 4,000,000) options and NIL (2011: 1,000,000) Share Performance Rights were issued. Accordingly, an adjustment to the share based option reserve of NIL (2012:$155,442) was done in the current reporting period (Refer Note 12). The fair value during financial year 2012 was determined as at Dec 2011 for by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model or other appropriate methodology, using the following assumptions:

  1. Performance Shares: Production of DSO at 100,000 tonnes for FY2013, 400,000 tonnes for FY2014 & 130,000 tonnes for FY 2015.

  2. Risk Free Rate: Depending on term - bonds over the period vary between 3.55 to 4.12%; have assumed 4% for calculation purposes

  3. Grant Date: 23/11/2011

  4. Volatality: As the industry is subject to large variances and therefore industry standard is most relevant

  5. Price at Grant: 0.12 per share.

Options granted carry no dividend or voting rights. When exercisable, each option is convertible into one ordinary share of the Company with full dividend and voting rights.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 30 JUNE 2013

Expenses arising from share-based payment transactions

There were NIL (2012: $106,500) expenses arising from share-based payment transactions recognised during the period. These expenses were recognised at the date the share based payments were approved and at the share price applicable at that date.

NOTE 20: CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICY

a) New Standards adopted

The AASB has issued a number of new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have been adopted by the company during the year.

AASB 2011-9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income (Applies annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012).

AASB 2011-9 requires entities to group items presented in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) on the basis of whether they are potentially re-classifiable to profit or loss subsequently, and changes the title of ‘statement of comprehensive income’ to ‘statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income’ (title change is not mandatory).

The adoption of the new and revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations has had no significant impact on the Company’s accounting policies, or the amounts reported during the current year. The adoption of AASB 2011-9 has resulted in changes to the presentation of the Company’s financial statements.

b) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods

The AASB has issued a number of new and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting period, some of which are relevant to the Company. The Company has decided not to early adopt any of the new and amended pronouncements. The Company’s assessment of the new and amended pronouncements that are relevant to the Company but applicable in future reporting periods is set out below:

  • AASB 9: Financial Instruments (December 2010) and AASB 2010-7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010).

This standard is mandatorily applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013. However, AASB 2012-6 defers the application date of AASB 9 from 1 January 2013 to 1 January 2015. AASB 9 introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities.

Although the Directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 and AASB 2010-7 may have an impact on the Company’s financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

  • AASB 10: Consolidated Financial Statements, AASB 11: Joint Arrangements, AASB 12: Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, AASB 127: Separate Financial Statements (August 2011) and AASB 128: Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (August 2011) (as amended by AASB 2012-10: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Transition Guidance and Other Amendments), and AASB 2011-7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards.

Page 50

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 2013

AASB 10 provides a revised definition of “control” and additional application guidance so that a single control model will apply to all investees. When adopted, this Standard is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s financial statements.

AASB 11 requires joint arrangements to be classified as either “joint operations” (where the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities) or “joint ventures” (where the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement). When adopted, this Standard is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s financial statements.

AASB 12 contains the disclosure requirements applicable to entities that hold an interest in a subsidiary, joint venture, joint operation or associate. AASB 12 also introduces the concept of a “structured entity”, replacing the “special purpose entity: concept currently used in Interpretation 112, and requires specific disclosures in respect of any investments in unconsolidated structured entities. When adopted, this Standard will affect disclosures only and therefore is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s financial statements.

  • AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement and AASB 2011-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 2013 (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013).

AASB 13 establishes a single source of guidance for determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. AASB 13 does not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather, provides guidance on how to determine fair value when fair value is required or permitted by other Standards.

These Standards are expected to result in more detailed fair value disclosures, but are not expected to significantly impact the amounts recognised in these financial statements.

  • AASB 2011-4: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards to Remove Individual Key Management Personnel Disclosure Requirements (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).

This Standard makes amendments to AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to remove the individual key management personnel (KMP) disclosure requirements by Australia specific paragraphs.

When adopted, these amendments are unlikely to have any significant impact on the financial statements.

  • AASB 119: Employee Benefits (September 2011) and AASB 2011-10: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 119 (September 2011) (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).

This Standard introduces a number of changes to presentation and disclosure of a defined benefit plan. AASB 119 also includes changes to the criteria for determining when termination benefits should be recognised as obligation.

Page 51

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 2013

The entity does not have any defined benefit plans. Therefore, these amendments will have no significant impact on the entity.

  • AASB Interpretation 20: Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of Surface Mining (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).

This interpretation clarifies that costs of removing mine waste materials (overburden) to gain access to mineral ore deposits during the production stage of a mine must be capitalized as inventories under AASB 102: Inventories if the benefits from stripping activity is realised in the form of inventory produced.

The entity does not operate a surface mine. Therefore, there will be no impact on the financial statements when this interpretation is first adopted.

  • AASB 2012-2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosures – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (application for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2014).

This Standard amends the required disclosures in AASB 7 to include information that will enable users of an entity’s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements, including rights of set-off associated with the entity’s recognised financial assets and recognised financial liabilities, on the entity’s statement of financial position.

When adopted, there will be no impact on the entity as the entity does not have any netting arrangements in place.

  • AASB 2012-5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Annual Improvements 2009-2011 (applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).

These amendments are a consequence of the annual improvement process, which provides a vehicle for making non-urgent but necessary amendments to Standards.

When these amendments are first adopted, this Standard is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 21: AFTER BALANCE SHEET DATE EVENTS

  • On 17th July 2013, the Federal court set aside the approval for Nelson Bay River Project under EPBC act.

  • On 31[ST] July 2013, the Federal Environment Minister issued an approval for Nelson Bay River Project under EPBC act.

  • Recommencement of development works at Nelson Bay River Project from 12[th] August 2013 after being suspended following injunction by Federal Court in May 2013.
