DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Your directors submit the interim financial report of the consolidated entity consisting of Resource Star Limited and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during the half year ended 31 December 2011. In order to comply with the provisions of the Corporations Act 2001, the directors report as follows:
DIRECTORS
The names of the directors who held office during or since the end of the interim period and until the date of this report are noted below. Directors were in office for this entire period unless otherwise stated.
Mr A Bell (Chairman) Mr S Heggen (Managing Director) Mr R Kestel Mr R Benussi Mr C Geach (Resigned 30 November 2011)
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
During the six months ended 31 December 2011, the Company was conscious of the difficult capital market environment, particularly for the resource exploration sector, and accordingly restrained cash expenditure to the maximum extent possible while continuing to preserve underlying value. In doing so, Resource Star continued to focus on its main exploration prospects in Malawi and Australia.
Resource Star’s major shareholder Red Rock Resources Plc (“RRR”) provided on-going financial support during the period and has continued to provide that support in 2012 as well as demonstrating its longer term commitment by underwriting the first $500,000 of any shortfall in the Company’s current 1 for 1 non-renounceable Entitlement Offer at $0.02 per share which is aiming to raise around $1,140,000 (before costs of approximately $47,000).
In Malawi, at the Livingstonia Uranium Project, the venture was successful in being granted a 100 metre extension to the northern boundary of the existing tenement. This new grant provides additional mineralised strike length of the Chombe prospect for exploration in 2012. Discussions are continuing in Malawi regarding the up to 300 metres of additional strike extension that could be available to the venture. Planning for the 2012 exploration programme is well underway and, on completion of the current Entitlement Offer, that activity will proceed in the first half of 2012.
Also in Malawi, at the Machinga Rare Earths Project, Globe Metals and Mining completed around 4,000m of RC drilling with 3,000m targeting the Machinga Main Zone and 1,000m targeting anomalies previously identified at the Lingoni prospect. The drilling campaign was designed to target and extend the significant heavy rare earth oxides and niobium mineralisation discovered in late 2010. Resource Star looks forward to the receiving the results of the drilling campaign.
Resource Star did not undertake any significant work at the Ilomba Hill Nb-U-REE Project in Malawi during the period due
to the expenditure restraints referred to earlier.
In Australia, at the Spinifex Uranium Project in Western Australia, Resource Star completed geological mapping during the period to confirm possible drill hole locations and drilling parameters. A Work Clearance Survey with the Traditional Owners, the Miriuwung Gajerrong Corporation was also completed. We were also successful in obtaining government permits for a maiden drilling programme to target the interpreted zone of fault associated unconformity at the Project. In October 2011, a two year extension to the exploration license was granted. The 2011 wet season and expenditure restraint meant that the proposed drilling was deferred and re-scheduled for 2012, subject to sufficient funding being available.
In the Northern Territory, the Company completed rehabilitation work at previous drill hole locations and received a report from an independent consultant detailing mapping undertaken at the O’Sheas Hill prospect at Edith River. The report confirmed the presence of sediment related anomalism near an interpreted unconformable contact between different aged formations.
As a consequence of an on-going review of our tenement holdings in the Northern Territory and prioritising expenditures we relinquished the Marrakai EL and reduced the size of two other tenements.
In October 2011, Resource Star announced that we would not proceed with the acquisition of a strategic interest in Cue Resources Ltd (“Cue Resources”) from RRR and Regency Mines Plc due to the movement in equity market prices since the initial agreement. The acquisition had been announced in May 2011. Subsequent to the end of the period, RRR announced that it had agreed to sell its holding in Cue Resources to Uranium Energy Corp and therefore Resource Star has no on-going plans to progress this opportunity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2011
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation of half-year report
These general purpose financial statements for the interim reporting period ended 31 December 2011 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ and the Corporations Act 2001 .
This consolidated interim financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of the group as the full financial report.
It is recommended that this financial report is to be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2011 and any public announcements made by Resource Star Limited (“the Company” or “RSL”) during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, unless otherwise stated
(b) Going concern
In the past six (6) months the Group has continued its exploration programs. In the half-year ended 31 December 2011 the Company recorded a net loss of $868,346 (2010: $768,390) and a net operating cash outflow of $476,892 (2010: $462,270).
The Directors anticipate in order to meet and progress its planned exploration expenditure further funding will be required within the next twelve (12) months and having prepared a cashflow budget of the Group’s working capital requirements have already commenced planning to access additional funding.
The Company is currently undertaking a Non-Renounceable Entitlements Issue which is due to close on 16 March 2012 and has been underwritten for the first $500,000 of any shortfall.
The Board is confident in securing sufficient additional funding for at least the next 12 months and would be able to negotiate with interested parties, which includes a Substantial Shareholder regarding a number of funding options that includes further debt and capital raisings. The Company has a history of successfully raising capital to fund its exploration activities.
Should the Group be unable to raise sufficient funds, it would consider selectively reducing administrative and exploration costs and entering into farm-in and joint venture agreements.
In the event that the Company is unable to secure sources of funding, the Company 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 this report.
As a result of these matters, the Directors have prepared the financial report on a going concern basis.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(c) Adoption of new and revised Accounting Standards and Interpretations
The following amending Standards have been adopted from 1 July 2011. Adoption of these standards did not have any effect on the financial position or performance of the Group:
-
AASB 124 (Revised) Related Party Disclosures (December 2009) simplifies the definition of a related party, clarifying its intended meaning and eliminating inconsistencies from the definition.
-
AASB 2009-12 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASBs 5, 8, 108, 110, 112, 119, 133, 137, 139, 1023 & 1031 and Interpretations 2, 4, 16, 1039 & 1052] makes numerous editorial changes to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations. In particular, it amends AASB 8 Operating Segments to require an entity to exercise judgement in assessing whether a government and entities known to be under the control of that government are considered a single customer for the purposes of certain operating segment disclosures.
-
AASB 2010-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project [AASB 1, AASB 7, AASB 101, AASB 134 and Interpretation 13]
-
Emphasises the interaction between quantitative and qualitative AASB 7 disclosures and the nature and extent of risks associated with financial instruments.
-
Clarifies that an entity will present an analysis of other comprehensive income for each component of equity, either in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes to the financial statements.
-
Provides guidance to illustrate how to apply disclosure principles in AASB 134 for significant events and transactions.
-
AASB 2010-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASBs 1, 3, 4, 5, 101, 107, 112, 118, 121, 132, 133, 134, 137, 139, 140, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 112, 115, 127, 132 & 1042].
This standard makes numerous editorial amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of IFRS by the IASB. These amendments have no major impact on the requirements of the amended pronouncements. The Group has not elected to early adopt any other new Standards or amendments that are issued but not yet effective.

Independent Auditor’s Review Report to the Members of Resource Star Limited
Report on the Interim Financial Report

Directors’ Responsibility for the Interim Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the interim financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the interim financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim 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 interim financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as 31 December 2011 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 an interim 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 interim financial report of Resource Star Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2011 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 .
