OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Operations
Orpheus Project – Fraser Range
The Company manages the Orpheus Project (Figure 1), comprising six tenements covering approximately 558km[2] in the Fraser Range province of Western Australia. In the Fraser Range, certain Proterozoic mafic/ultramafic intrusion suites are prospective to host nickel-copper sulphide mineralisation. The region is currently experiencing high levels of exploration activity for nickel following the Nova, Silver Knight, Mawson and Lantern discoveries.
The Orpheus Project includes a 70% interest in three mineral exploration licences (E28/2403, E63/1281 and E63/1282) and one mineral exploration licence application (E63/1695). The three granted exploration licences form part of a joint venture between the Company (70%) and Enterprise Metals Limited (“Enterprise”) (30%, ASX: ENT). Pursuant to the joint venture agreement, the Company is responsible for sole funding all joint venture activities on the tenements, which form part of the joint venture, up to completion of a bankable feasibility study.
Additionally, the Company has further 100% interests in two exploration licences (E28/2738 and E28/2957).
As at the date of this report, the Company has an interest in the following projects:
| Project Name | Permit Number | Percentage Interest | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fraser Range, Western Australia | E63/1281 | 70% | Granted |
| E63/1282 | 70% | Granted | |
| E28/2403 | 70% | Granted | |

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (Continued)
Highlights during and subsequent to the end of the half year include:
-
Completion of maiden reconnaissance air-core (“AC”) program comprising 121 holes totalling 15,102 metre undertaken on five of ten high priority geophysical targets identified across the Company’s northern tenements (Figure 3). A follow-up infill program comprising 16 holes totalling 1,552 metre was also completed late in the half-year to further refine Nickel-Copper-Cobalt- Platinum Group Elements (“Ni-Cu-Co-PGE”) anomalism.
-
Assays returned several encouraging Ni-Cu-Co-PGE results. Key results include (Figure 2):
-
KAC0091: 21m @ 0.21% Ni, 0.08% Cu, 0.03% Co, 52ppb (Pt+Pd), 12ppb Au from 93m including:
-
4m @ 0.26% Ni, 0.13% Cu, 0.05% Co, 88ppb (Pt+Pd) and 11ppb Au from 93m; and
-
4m @ 0.31% Ni, 0.08% Cu, 0.03% Co, 24ppb (Pt+Pd) and 9ppb Au from 109m.
-
-
KAC0124: 18m @ 0.21% Ni, 0.02% Cu and 0.05% Co, 14 ppb (Pt+Pd) from 87m includes:
- 2m @ 0.47% Ni, 0.26% Cu and 0.08% Co, 11 ppb (Pt+Pd) from 97m
-
AC drilling results to date have defined a highly prospective Ni-Cu-Co-PGE geochemical target that is interpreted to be over three kilometres in strike and up to 400 metres wide – named the Eyre Anomaly.
-
Optical petrological examination from selected AC samples in three infill drillholes (KAC0124, KAC0131 and KAC0135) has indicated the presence of trace magmatic nickel sulphides in favourable peridotite and pyroxenite (both olivine bearing) host rocks.
-
Strong evidence for magmatic nickel sulphides as being the source of the Eyre Anomaly which supports the prospectivity of the other established Ni-Cu-Co-PGE anomalies as a pathfinder to nickel sulphides in the basement intrusive.
-
High priority follow-up infill AC drilling planned in the coming months to improve definition of the grade distribution at each of the established Ni-Cu-Co-PGE geochemical footprints, with the northern Eyre Anomaly being a priority.
-
Experienced nickel executive Peter Muccilli appointed as a Technical Director in July 2020.

Business Development
Several opportunities have been reviewed during the half year, and the Company will continue in its efforts to identify and acquire suitable new business opportunities in the resources sector, both domestically and overseas. However, no agreements have been reached or licences granted and the Directors are not able to assess the likelihood or timing of a successful acquisition or grant of any opportunities.
Results of Operations
The net loss of the Company for the half year ended 31 December 2020 was $896,374 (31 December 2019: $450,484). This loss is predominately comprised exploration and evaluation expenditure of $583,954 (31 December 2019: $255,176) attributable to the Company’s accounting policy of expensing exploration and evaluation expenditure (other than expenditures incurred in the acquisition of the rights to explore) incurred by the Company. In the current half year, the net loss also includes share based payments expenses totalling $98,086 (31 December 2019: $11,058) relating to incentive options. The fair value of the incentive options is recognised over the vesting period of the option.
Financial Position
As at 31 December 2020, the Company had a net current asset surplus of $3,301,989 (30 June 2020: net current asset surplus of $4,101,122). At 31 December 2020, the Company had cash reserves of $3,461,439 (30 June 2020: $4,313,710) and nil borrowings (30 June 2020: $nil). At 31 December 2020, the Company had net assets of $3,656,630 (30 June 2020: net assets of $4,451,586).

This general purpose financial report for the interim half year reporting period ended 31 December 2020 has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001. This interim financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report.

Subject to any rights or restrictions at the time being attached to any shares or class of shares of the Company, each member of the Company is entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at a general meeting. Resolutions of members will be decided by a show of hands unless a poll is demanded. On a show of hands each eligible voter present has one vote. However, where a person present at a general meeting represents personally or by proxy, attorney or representative more than one member, on a show of hands the person is entitled to one vote only despite the number of members the person represents. On a poll each eligible member has one vote for each fully paid share held and a fraction of a vote for each partly paid share determined by the amount paid up on that share.
(iv) Changes to the Constitution
The Company's Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of the members present and voting at a general meeting of the Company. At least 28 days' written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.
