Independent Auditor's Review Report
To the Members of Classic Minerals Limited
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Classic Minerals Limited ("the Company") which comprises the condensed statement of financial position as at 31 December 2015, the condensed statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, condensed statement of changes in equity and condensed statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, a statement of accounting policies, other selected explanatory notes and the directors' declaration.
Directors Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Company's financial position as at 31 December 2015 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of the Company ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
Conclusion
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Classic Minerals Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
- a. Giving a true and fair view of the Company's financial position as at 31 December 2015 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
- b. Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.
Emphasis of Matter
Without qualifying our conclusion, we draw attention to note 1(c) in the financial report which indicates that the company incurred a net loss of \$64,492 during the half-year ended 31 December 2015. This condition, along with other matters as set forth in note 1(c), indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the ability of the company to continue as a going concern and whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015
SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES $1.$
Significant Accounting Policies
$a)$ Statement of Compliance
The half vear financial report is a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards including AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. The half-year financial report does not include notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report and should be read in conjunction with the 2015 annual financial report.
$\mathbf{b}$ Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of certain non-current assets and financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.
The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the half-year financial report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the company's 2015 annual financial report for the financial year ended 30 June 2015, except for the impact of the Standards and Interpretations described below. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards.
New or revised standards and interpretations that are first effective in the current reporting period
The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to their operations and effective for the current half-year.
New and revised Standards and amendments thereof and Interpretations effective for the current half-
year that are relevant to the Group include:
AASB 2015-3 'Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Withdrawal of AASB 1031 Materiality'
The adoption of the above standards have not had a material impact on this half year financial report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015
$1.$ SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
$c)$ Going concern
The half-year financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlements of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company made a loss of \$64.492 for the half year ended 31 December 2015 (31 December 2014: \$3,151,741 loss).
The net working capital deficit position of the Company at 31 December 2015 was \$2.255.168 (30 June 2015; net working capital deficit of \$2,334,971). Cash outflows from operations of the Company at 31 December 2015 were \$226,396 (31 December 2014; \$26,939) and the net movement in cash held during the half year was an increase of \$72,155 (31 December 2014; decrease of \$70,049).
The ability of the Company to continue to pay its debts as and when they fall due is dependent upon the Company raising additional share capital, divesting its mining interests and/or debt funding.
These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Company will have sufficient cash flows to meet all commitments and working capital requirements for the 12 month period from the date of signing this financial report.
The Directors believe it is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis because:
- the Company has entered into a sale of mining interest agreement subsequent to the half year end, to divest its interest in the Doherty's gold project for an amount of \$4,000,000 (inclusive of GST). An upfront non-refundable deposit of \$500,000 has been received with the remaining amount of \$3,500,000 due to be received on or before 23 June 2016. Introductory fees will be payable to Greywood Holdings Pty Ltd as described in note 2;
- the Directors have an appropriate plan to raise additional funds in the immediate future, as well as when required. In light of the Company's current projects, the Directors believe that the additional capital required can be raised in the market;
Should the Company not be successful in its planned capital raisings, it may be necessary to sell some of its assets, farm out exploration projects, or reduce exploration expenditure by various methods including surrendering less prospective tenements. Although the Directors believe that they will be successful in these measures, if they are not, the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore may be unable to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.
ABN 77 119 484 016
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015
$2.$ SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On 19 January 2016, the Company received a short term loan of \$120,000 from its shareholder Greywood Holdings Pty Ltd. The term is for 42 days, with interest of \$18,000 payable on this loan and 2,000,000 shares to be issued.
On 24 March 2016, the Company entered into an agreement for the sale of mining rights relating to its Doherty's gold project (M57/619) and will receive as consideration \$4m (GST inclusive). The Company will receive the consideration in two instalments; \$500,000 within five business days of the signing of the Agreement and is non-refundable and as at the date of this report has been received and the remaining \$3.5m on or before 23 June 2016. The Company will receive an ongoing Royalty payment of 7.5%. An Introductory fee of 7.5% (\$300,000) and 26M shares in Classic Minerals (subject to shareholder approval) will be payable to Greywood Holdings Pty Ltd. Classic will also pay to Greywood Holdings 33.33% (2.5%) of the net smelter royalty mentioned above.
There are no other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the half year which will significantly affect, or may significantly affect, the state of affairs of the reporting entity in future periods.
