REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

Coziron Resources Ltd (CZR) has exploration focussed primarily on feed-stock materials for steel-making but also investigates any other opportunities for mineralisation particularly in commodities such as gold, copper and base-metals. CZR holds and 85% interest in the Yarraloola, Shepherds Well and Buddadoo Iron Projects and a 70% interest in the Yarrie Iron Project.

The Yarraloola Iron project in the West Pilbara which is located in the hub of an iron-ore mining and processing region with the potential for shipping options is the main focus of activity (Fig 1).

Details of the projects and an overview of results for the year are presented in the following sections.

Yarraloola Project

The Yarraloola Project consists of eight exploration licences and three prospecting licenses that now have a total area of 896 km[2] (Fig 2).

The Yarraloola Project has a basement of Archean and Proterozoic-aged rocks that are in parts overlain by younger sediments of the Carnarvon Basin. All the sequences are prospective for iron-ore. In the east, Archaean-age sediments in the Hamersley Basin include iron-rich members of the Marra Mamba, Brockman and Boolgeeda Iron Formations. In the central and western parts, Proterozoic-age magnetite-rich metasediments are intercalated with metavolcanics in the Ashburton Basin, while in the south, the Coziron tenements are transected by the Robe River pisolitic iron-stone. The pisolitic iron-stone was deposited in paleo-channels between the Pilbara and the off-shore Carnarvon Basin and currently support large-scale mining operations at Warramboo, Mesa A and Mesa J (Fig 2).

Logistically, the Yarraloola tenements are well serviced by established infrastructure that includes bitumen roads and gas-pipelines and these provide opportunities to lower the cost of development for any ore discoveries. There are also proposals for additional facilities to be developed within the region. BC Iron Ltd has approval for a new haul-road to a port at Cape Preston East, while the API joint-venture is preparing a feasibility study for a railway through the West Pilbara to a port at Anketell Point. Both of these planned infrastructure projects traverse the Coziron tenements and have the potential to improve the economics of any iron-ore deposits discovered within the project area.

Robe Mesa Deposit

In late 2014 and again in mid-2015, the Company completed programmes of RC drilling that totalled 67 holes into the Robe Mesa (Fig 2 and Fig 3). These intersected an upper and lower interval of pisolitic iron-stone with Fe>50% (Fig 4). The independently calculated mineral resources were revised after the 2015 drilling and reported to the ASX on the 7[th] of December 2015 using Fe cut-offs of 50% and 55%. The results are summarised in the following tables.

In the past year, the company completed a further 42 holes for 1077 metres on pisolitic outcrop and debris that extends to the east and west of the Robe Mesa ore resource (Fig 3). In addition to the RC drilling, three 100mm diameter holes were completed through the upper and lower intervals of pisolitic iron-store using a sonic rig to recover cored material for metallurgical test-work.

Following the receipt of all results, the geological model (Fig 4) and assay database were provided to Payne Geological Services Pty Ltd (PayneGeo) for an independent assessment of the distribution of rocks with Fe>50% . The review increased the JORC-compliant inferred resource estimate for the Robe Mesa by the addition of 4.6Mt @ 51.8% Fe or 5% in volume in an extension of lower zone mineralisation to the east as is summarised in Tables 1 to 3 and Fig 3. Full details of the JORC report for the Robe East Extension were provided to the ASX by CZR on 24[th] April 2017.

Prospecting License P08/529.

The P08/529 prospect covers part of the southern margin of the Robe Channel-iron system (Fig 2). The tenement has a cover of ferruginous conglomerate and sandy soil containing fragments of pisolitic iron-stone.

During the year, 17 RC drill-holes for a total of 617m were completed on approximately 200m intervals along the tenement (Fig 5). Following the receipt of all the assay results, the geological model (Fig 6) and assay database were provided to Payne Geological Services Pty Ltd (PayneGeo) for an independent assessment of grade and tonnage. Results are reported in Table 4 and represent a maiden JORC-compliant inferred resource for the prospect. Full results were reported by CZR to ASX on 9[th] May 2017.

Ashburton Magnetite Schists

The magnetite schists in the Ashburton Basin are represented by a 12 km long by 800 m wide area hosting high-order magnetic anomalies that are only partly exposed through conglomeratic rocks from the Carnarvon Basin (Fig 2). The mineralised rocks in the Ashburton have a suite of characteristics described in the following that may be favourable for larger-scale magnetite recovery.

1. A transition from weathered to fresh rock that is only 20-30m below the surface and would minimise the amount of pre-strip for development.

2. No evidence of the hazardous blue asbestos (crocidolite) in the system.

3. Coarser grainsize than the iron formations in the Hamersley Basin that is potentially an advantage for liberation from the host-rock.

4. Generally low phosphorous and sulphur contents.

5. Mass yields that are in excess of 30%.

6. High rates of RC drilling and short mill times being reported during the recovery of magnetite by Davis Tube that suggests the host-rocks are relatively soft.

During the year, an additional ten inclined (-60°) holes, each to about 200 metres depth and oriented at either 050° or 230° for a total of 2000m were completed (Fig 7). The drillhole locations were selected to better determine the distribution and grade of mineralisation at the Spinifex Hill, Rossi (previously Discovery North) and Walrus Ridge (previously Discovery South) prospects. During drilling, samples were logged for geology and magnetic susceptibility and sampled for geochemistry on 1m intervals. All the drill-holes contained intervals with magnetic susceptibility greater that 10,000 SI units and Fe>25% that reflects the abundance of magnetite. Full details of the programme and the resulting intercepts were fully reported to the ASX by CZR on 1-June-2017.

At Spinifex Hill, where intercepts are now reported along a strike length of about 500m, a cross-section with the interpreted geology and down-hole intercepts indicates that the zone of higher grade (Fe>25%) magnetite mineralisation is at least 300m wide (Fig 8). At Rossi Hill, the two holes drilled on a new section of the prospect produced down-hole intercept across a zone of mineralisation that is at least 150m wide. While at Walrus Ridge, towards the southern portion of the Ashburton magnetite project, results from the 2014 to 2016 drilling programmes indicate an intercalation of magnetite-bearing intervals with volcaniclastic rocks extends across a zone that is over 500m wide.

Yarraloola Gold and base-metal prospectivity

As part of the on-going assessment, gold and base-metal targets are continuously reviewed and are progressively soil and rock-chip sampled. Follow-up work is planned with a focus on identifying targets for drilling.

SHEPHERDS WELL – E08/2361

The Shepherds Well Project which covers 192.2km[2] is located 60-100 km southwest of Karratha (Fig 1). The tenement has bitumen road access from the Great Northern Highway, is contiguous with the Yarraloola Project and is located only 25-50km from the proposed public access port at Cape Preston (Fig 1 and Fig 9). The project has iron-formations within a sequence of sediments, felsic volcanics, and ocean-floor basalts that are part of an accretionary domain which is older than the Hamersley Basin. Along the western margin of the Pibara, these volcanic and sedimentary rocks are associated with gold and lead-zinc-copper occurrences attributed to a sea-floor volcanogenic origin. To the east and south of Shepherds Well, the older rocks from the basement of the Pilbara are unconformably overlain by the Fortescue Basalt which represents the first events in the development of the Hamersley Basin.

During the year, the Company has undertaken further programmes of mapping and gridded soil sampling on the Dorper Rise and Suffolk Ridge prospects (Fig 9). Dorper Rise which is located on a regional shear zone contains talc-carbonate rocks between basaltic volcanics in the Regal Terrain and a suite of felsic rocks in the Nickol Formation. The soils at Dorper Rise (Fig 10) are anomalous in nickel (Ni) with chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), platinum group elements (PGE) and gold (Au). In contrast, Suffolk Ridge represents a siliceous zone in felsic rocks that is approximately 80m wide and 2.5km long which is anomalous in lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), silver (Ag) and gold (Au) and is co-incident with a magnetic lineament. Full details have been reported by CZR to the ASX on 28[th] June 2017, 13[th] Sept 2017 and 21[st] March 2017.

Yarrie

The Yarrie Project consists of four granted, E45/3725, E45/3728, E45/4065, E45/4433 and two tenement applications E45/4604 and E45/4605 covering a total of 419 km[2] that are located 160km east of Port Hedland (Fig 11). The Yarrie tenements share boundaries in part with the Yarrie-Goldsworthy iron-ore mining district which was until recently, operated by BHP Billiton PLC (BHP). The tenements are serviced by a bitumen road and natural gas pipeline between Pt Hedland and the Telfer copper-gold mine and regional roads that service the cattle industry and other mining towns in the region.

In the North Pilbara, high-grade iron-ore (Fe>62%) is hosted by Archaean-age sequences of volcanics and sediments termed the Cleaverville Terrain. These rocks unconformably overlie a granitic basement and underlie units of the Hamersley Basin. The Yarrie project covers outcrop extensions of the Cleaverville in the central and southern areas. In addition, there is significant tenement coverage where interpretations of magnetic surveys suggest that highly magnetic rocks subcrop beneath shallow cover. Within the sequence, the priority exploration targets are the parts of the Nimingarra Iron Formation which may be altered to highgrade haematite. Previously, the Company acquired detailed gravity surveys coverage over areas of subcropping iron-formation and has generated targets for future drilling.

During the year, eight drill-pads were prepared over four priority co-incident gravity and magnetic targets on the Egg Creek prospect for RC drilling (Fig 12). The anomalies are analogous to the geological setting of the adjacent NimA deposit that was mined by BHP-Billiton Pty Ltd.

In addition, some broadly space soil and rock-chip sampling was undertaken over the metavolcanic and metasedimentary sequence that outcrops down the western part of E45/3728. The first programme collected 82 gridded soil and 20 rock-chip samples. The soil sampling identified some lithologies with geochemical responses that are anomalous in gold and base-metals that will require further assessment. The rock-chip samples were also used to characterise some lithologies but four samples detected outcropping evidence for mineralisation (Table 5). The most significant rock-chips results are presented in the following table. Full details of the work programmes were reported by CZR to the ASX on 5[th] October 2016 and 7[th] of June 2017.

Table 5. Selected results from the mineralised rock-chip samples in E45/3728 on the Yarrie Project.

*- rock-chips reported in the above represent only those samples with precious and base-metals significantly above background and are used to identify structural and lithological features that require follow-up work.

The gold and base-metal bearing samples are associated with zones of carbonate, sulphide and silica alteration within a suite of mafic to ultramafic rocks that are associated with a major NNE-trending structure. The setting is consistent with the model for Archean load-style gold mineralisation. In contrast, the manganese is reported from brecciated veins and the association with barium perhaps indicates a lower temperature epithermal affiliation for the system.

Follow-up sampling of the localities showing evidence of mineralisation is planned.

BUDDADOO

The Buddadoo Project in the mid-west of Western Australia is located about 200km east of Geraldton and covers an area of 210km[2] on part of the Gullewa Greenstone Belt (Fig 1). The project hosts vanadiferous titanomagnetite, copper and gold mineralisation in different geological settings. The coarse-grained, vanadiferous titanomagnetite outcrops as bands up to 10m thick in a 250m wide zone within a 7km by 1.5km gabbro in the Buddadoo Range (Fig 12). Previously the Company has undertaken programmes of mapping, soil sampling and soil geochemistry.

During the year, no significant on-ground work has been undertaken.

EVENTS OCCURING AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

On 30 August the Company announced that it had secured a debt facility of $0.5m from the Company's largest shareholder, the Creasy group.

1. The funds have been received in a single advance of $500,000;

2. Interest at 10% is payable on any advance;

3. The loan has a term of 6 months from the date of the advance;

4. The Lender has the option of securing the loan over the Company’s assets;

5. Repayment of the Loan (and any accrued interest) must be made in cash unless the lender elects, at its sole discretion, that repayment be made in shares or a combination of both. The shares to be issued will be at an issue price of $0.015 and be subject to shareholder approval; and

6. The Company may repay the advance at any time prior to the last repayment date, which is 6 months after the advance is made, unless an extension is agreed in writing by both parties.

Other than as outlined above, there has not been any matter or circumstance that has arisen after the reporting date that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the consolidated entity, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the consolidated entity in future financial periods.

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited)

The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001 .

The information contained in this Remuneration Report, including the amount of remunerations paid and the principles of compensation employed relate to the period up until the appointment of the Administrators. Following the successful recapitalisation of the Company the Board will establish new principles commensurate with the small scale of the Group’s enterprise and the associated economic restrictions this places on the Group.

Remuneration policy

The remuneration policy of Coziron Resources Limited has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an annual basis in line with market rates and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the economic entity’s financial results. The board of Coziron Resources Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best directors and executives to run and manage the economic entity.

The board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the economic entity is as follows:

The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, was developed by the board. All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience) and superannuation. The board policy is to review executive packages annually by reference to the economic entity’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries.

The board may exercise discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options. The policy is to attract the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth.

Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements. The executive directors and executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which is currently 9.5%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes method.

The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The board determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is to be sought when required, however has not been sought during this reporting period. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is $250,000 approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on 30 November 2011. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the economic entity. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company and are able to participate in the employee option plan.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (Continued)

The objective of the Company’s executive reward framework is set to attract and retain the most qualified and experienced directors and senior executives. The board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices:

• Competitiveness

• Acceptability to shareholders

• Performance linkage

• Capital management

No remuneration consultants were engaged during the year.

Directors’ fees

A director may be paid fees or other amounts as the directors determine where a director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a director. A director may also be reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred as a result of their directorship or any special duties.

Bonuses

No bonuses were given to key management personnel during the 2016 and 2017 years.

Performance based remuneration

The Group currently has no performance-based remuneration component built into director and executive remuneration packages given that the company is currently still in exploration phase. Therefore, all remuneration is fixed and no amount is considered at risk.

Group performance, shareholder wealth and director’s and executive’s remuneration

The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders and directors and executives. During the year no options were issued to Directors.

COZIRON RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

The consolidated financial report of Coziron Resources Limited for the year ended 30 June 2017 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 28 September 2017 and covers Coziron Resources Limited as an individual entity as well as the Consolidated Entity consisting of Coziron Resources Limited and its subsidiaries as required by the Corporations Act 2001 .

The consolidated financial report is presented in the Australian currency.

Coziron Resources Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Stock Exchange. Coziron is a for profit entity.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNT POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial report includes separate financial statements for Coziron Resources Limited as an individual entity and the consolidated entity consisting of Coziron Resources Limited and its subsidiaries.

(a) Basis of Preparation

The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001. Coziron Resources Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.

Compliance with IFRS

Australian Accounting Standards include Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

Historical cost convention

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AIFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 3.

Going Concern

The Group has incurred a net loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2017 of $2,037,060 (2016: $2,358,402) and experienced net cash outflows from operating activities of $1,938,913 (2016: $2,304,047). At 30 June 2017, the Group had current assets of $493,553 (30 June 2016: $2,561,648).

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on securing additional funding through debt or equity issues or partial sale of its mineral properties as and when the need to raise working capital arises, to continue to fund its operational activities.

These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast a significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

31

COZIRON RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

Management believe there are sufficient funds to meet the Group’s working capital requirements as at the date of this report. Subsequent to period end the Group expects to receive additional funds through debt or equity issues.

The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Group is a going concern, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity, realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business for the following reasons:

• The Group has a proven history of successfully raising capital.

• The Directors believe that there is sufficient cash available for the Group to continue operating until it can raise sufficient further capital to fund its ongoing activities.

• The fact that future exploration and evaluation expenditures are generally discretionary in nature and may be slowed or suspended as part of the management of the Group's working capital and other forecast commitments.

Should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements and that the financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.

(b) Basis of Consolidation

Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Coziron Resources Limited and its subsidiaries at 30 June each year (“the Group”). Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the group has control. The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent, using consistent accounting policies.

All intercompany balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from intragroup transactions have been eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.

Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of financial position respectively.

Subsidiaries are accounted for in the parent entity’s financial statements at cost.

(c) Foreign Currency Translation

The functional and presentation currency of Coziron Resources Limited and its subsidiaries is Australian dollars (AUD).

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from settling foreign currency transactions, as well as from restating foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except when they are deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges or where they relate to differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined.

32

COZIRON RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.

(d) Segment Reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board.

(e) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognised at the fair value of consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances and duties and taxes paid. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Interest

Revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. The effective interest method uses the effective interest rate which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial asset.

(f) Income Tax

The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.

(g) Impairment of Assets

At each reporting date the Group assesses whether there is any indication that individual assets are impaired. Where impairment indicators exist, recoverable amount is determined and impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income where the asset’s carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purpose of assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

Where it is not possible to estimate recoverable amount for an individual asset, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

(h) Cash and Cash Equivalents

For consolidated statement of cash flows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial position.

(i) Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are recognised at original invoice amounts less an allowance for uncollectible amounts and have repayment terms between 30 and 90 days. Collectability of trade receivables is assessed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. An allowance is made for doubtful debts where there is objective evidence (such as significant financial difficulties on the part of the counterparty or default or significant delay in payment) that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

(j) Impairment of Financial Assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity securities classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of a security below its cost is considered as an indicator that the securities are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously amortised in profit or loss – is removed from equity and amortised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive. Impairment losses amortised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income on equity instruments classified as available-for-sale are not reversed through the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

(k) Fair Values

Fair values may be used for financial asset and liability measurement and well as for sundry disclosures.

Fair values for financial instruments traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices at reporting date. The quoted market price for financial assets is the current bid price and the quoted market price.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market are determined using valuation techniques. Assumptions used are based on observable market prices and rates at reporting date. The fair value of long-term debt instruments is determined using quoted market prices for similar instruments. Estimated discounted cash flows are used to determine fair value of the remaining financial instruments. The fair value of forward exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange market rates at reporting date.

The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the group for similar financial instruments.

(l) Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure

Exploration and evaluation costs including costs of studies, exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of depreciation and amortisation of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities along with those for general and administrative costs are expensed in the period they are incurred. Acquisition costs of acquiring are capitalised until the viability of the area of interest is determined. Those acquisition costs are carried forward when the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and

• (ii) at least one of the following conditions is also met:

• a) the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploration of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or

• b) exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the reporting date reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.

Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which it has been allocated being no larger than the relevant area of interest) is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in previous years.

34

COZIRON RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance is then reclassified to development.

(m) Property, Plant and Equipment

All property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

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. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the reporting period in which they are incurred.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:

- Vehicles	3 – 5 years
- Furniture, fittings and equipment	3 – 8 years
- Plant and equipment	10 – 15 years

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each reporting 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 (Note 2(g)).

Gains and losses on disposals are calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the asset’s carrying amount and are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the year that the item is derecognised.

(n) Trade and Other Payables

Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the year end and which are unpaid. These amounts are unsecured and have 30-60 day payment terms.

(o) Dividends

Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting period.

(p) Employee Benefit Provisions

Short term obligations

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave are recognised in respect of employees’ services rendered up to reporting date and measured at amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when leave is taken and measured at the actual rates paid or payable. Liabilities for wages and salaries are included as part of Other Payables and liabilities for annual sick leave are included as part of Employee Benefit Provisions.

Other Long term employee benefit obligations

Liabilities for long service leave are recognised as part of the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future salaries and wages levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using national government bond rates at reporting date with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

(q) Contributed Equity

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

Costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown as a deduction from the equity proceeds, net of any income tax benefit. Costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options associated with the acquisition of a business are included as part of the purchase consideration.

(r) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to equity holders of the Group, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.

Diluted earnings per share

Earnings used to calculate diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the basic earnings by the after-tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares. The weighted average number of shares used is adjusted for the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

(s) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses are recognised net of GST except where GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority, are classified as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

(t) New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The group has applied the following standards and amendments for first time for their annual reporting period commencing 1 July 2016:

• AASB 2014-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation.

• AASB 2015-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual Improvements to Australian Accounting Standards 2012-2014 Cycle.

• AASB 2015-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards –Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 101

None of these standards have altered any amounts in the current or prior periods and are not likely to impact future periods.

3. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. There are no estimates, assumptions or judgments that are expected to have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, except for the following:

Exploration and Evaluation Assets

Acquisition costs in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are carried forward in respect of an area that has not, at reporting date, reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves.

Share Based Payments

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with other parties by reference to the fair value of the goods or services received. Where the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably determined, or where the goods or services cannot be identified, the Group measures the cost of the transaction by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.

4. SEGMENT REPORTING

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors.

Coziron Resources Limited operates in the mineral exploration industry in Australia.

Given the nature of the Group, its size and current operations, management does not treat any part of the Group as a separate operating segment. Internal financial information used by the Group’s decision makers is presented on a “whole of entity” manner without dissemination to any separately identifiable segments.

The Group’s management operate the business as a whole without any special responsibilities for any separately identifiable segments of the business.

Accordingly the financial information reported elsewhere in this financial report is representative of the nature and financial effects of the business activities in which it engages and the economic environments in which it operates.

Capital risk management

The Group's and the parent entity's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

20. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

(a) General objectives, policies and processes

In common with all other businesses, the Group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial statements.

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and short term deposits. The main purpose of the financial instruments is to earn the maximum amount of interest at a low risk to the Group. The Group also has other financial instruments such as other debtors and creditors which arise directly from its operations. For the current financial year, it has been the Group’s policy not to trade in financial instruments

49

COZIRON RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. There have been no substantive changes in the Group’s exposure to financial instrument risks, its objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them from previous periods unless otherwise stated in this note.

All loans to subsidiary companies are eliminated on consolidation and therefore do not expose the group to currency risk.

The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management objectives and policies. The Groups' risk management policies and objectives are designed to minimise the potential impacts of these risks on the results of the Group where such impacts may be material.

The overall objective of the Board is to set polices that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Group’s competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below:

(b) Market Risk

Market risk arises from the use of interest bearing financial instruments. It is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in interest rates (interest rate risk).

Interest rate risk

The Group is exposed to movements in market interest rates on short term deposits. The Directors monitor the Group’s cash position relative to the expected cash requirements. Where appropriate, surplus funds are placed on deposit earning higher interest. The Group does not have short or long term debt, and therefore this risk is minimal. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk and the effective weighted average interest rate for each class of financial assets and financial liabilities is set out in the following table:

2017

2017 Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Weighted average interest rate Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Weighted average interest rate	Floating rates $	Fixed interest maturing in < 1 year 1 - 5 years > 5 years Non- interest bearing Total $ $ $ $ $

Group sensitivity

At 30 June 2017, if interest had changed by -/+ 100 basis points from the year end rates with all other variables held constant, pre-tax profit for the year would have increased/decreased by $3,699 (2016 – change of 100 basis points; $23,088 lower/higher). The group’s interest income from the comparative financial years comes solely from the parent entity.

(a) Credit Risk

Credit risk is managed on a group basis. Credit risk arises mainly from cash and cash equivalents, and deposits with banks and financial institutions. For banks and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a minimum rating of 'A' are accepted.

The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any provisions for losses, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk. As at 30 June 2017, the group held cash at bank with financial institutions with an S&P rating of AA.

(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group may encounter difficulties raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments, e.g. borrowing repayments. The Group actively manages its operating cash flows and the availability of funding so as to ensure that all refinancing, repayment and funding needs are met. As part of its overall prudent liquidity management, the Group maintains sufficient levels of cash to meet its working capital requirements. The Group does not have any overdraft, loans or borrowings facilities from financial institutions as at reporting date.

Maturity analysis for financial liabilities

Financial liabilities of the Group include trade and other payables and employee entitlements. As at 30 June 2017 and 30 June 2016 trade payables and employee entitlements are contractually due within 60 days.

(c) Fair Values

The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The same applies to the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents.

(d) Foreign exchange risk

51

COZIRON RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

The Consolidated Entity transacts in Australian dollars and therefore does not participate in the use of derivative financial instruments. Minor exposure to foreign exchange transactions may occur if the Consolidated Entity’s transacts in other jurisdictions arising from variations in the Australian exchange rate. The impact of these foreign exchange rate differences are not material, therefore the Consolidated Entity considers there is no material foreign exchange risk present.

Non-cash financing activities

During the prior financial year the Company issued:

• 100,000,000 ordinary shares as consideration for the acquisition of the Yarrie Project.

• 35,561,700 ordinary shares in settlement of the cash consideration payable in relation to the acquisition of the Yarrie Project.

22. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS

Ordinary Shares

Shares provided in respect of acquisition of Yarrie Project Total share based payments	2017 $ 2016 $ - 1,084,494 - 1,084,494

The acquisition of the Yarrie Project is accounted as a share based payment under AASB 2. A share based payment transaction arises whereby Coziron Resources Limited has issued 100 million shares in exchange for a 70% interest in the Yarrie Project tenements, and a further 35,561,700 shares in settlement of the cash consideration. The amount recognised as issued equity instruments in the consolidated financial statements has been determined by adding the share based payment to the issued capital of Coziron Resources Limited on the date of the acquisition. The value of the share based payment is based on the value of the securities on the date of issue based on the price at which they last traded on the ASX.

Options

There were no options granted during the years ended 30 June 2017 and 30 June 2016.

No other share based payment transactions were entered into during the period and at the time of this report the Group does not have a formal employee option plan in place.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at the end of the financial year was 0.83 years (2016: 1.83).

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the members of Coziron Resources Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Coziron Resources Limited and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 3017, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

• (i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and

• (ii) Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material uncertainty related to going concern

We draw attention to Note 2 (a) in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 79 112 284 787 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

	We have also assessed the adequacy of the related

Other information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
