DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED DIRECTORS’ REPORT (Continued) FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013

==> picture [113 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

During the Period the company completed a 3DIP survey over a 765 hectare area and processing of the new 3DIP data, to further enhance target definition. This in conjunction with a combined interpretation of the company’s other geophysical, geochemical and geological datasets, was used to define and prioritise regional targets for further work.

A number of shallow targets with affinities to the mineralisation VMS/epithermal at the Udu Mine have been identified (Figure 2).

The company completed 753m of drilling in 8 holes to test extensions to the inferred resource indicated by initial processing of the 3DIP data. Drilling returned a number of shallow, high grade copper intercepts which confirmed continuity of polymetallic mineralisation down dip and confirmed the mineralisation is open down dip to the south, outside the current inferred resource (Table 1).

The final interpretation of the 3DIP defined four high priority VMS/epithermal targets, all within 4km of the existing resource. In addition the geophysics suggests some upside to the existing resource, and has defined a highly chargeable target beneath the current resource. The survey also defined a “classic porphyry copper target” at Nagasauva, 3km to the south of the JORC resource at a depth of at about 600m.

Shallow targets (within 100m of surface) are highlighted in Figure 2. The highest priority targets (IP01, IP05, IP11, IP10 and IP20) are all associated with copper in soil geochemical anomalies. Drilling will commence utilising the company’s own drilling equipment which is currently on site once field operations recommence late in the first quarter.

Testing of deeper targets (Mine Deeps, IP06) will require mobilisation of a drilling contractor with larger equipment to site later in the year.

Two additional regional targets with similarities to the Nagasauva porphyry target have been identified within the companies’ tenements. One of these targets is located within the SPL1494 and is associated with anomalously mineralised porphyry float collected during the companies’ regional work programmes. Initial observations suggest this target is closer to surface than Nagasauva, and additional soil sampling and mapping of the area to further refine the target is planned for early 2014. A decision to drill a porphyry copper target will be made after all the targets have been assessed.

Lone Wolf Project WA

There was no activity at the Lone Wolf project during the Period and subsequent to the end of the Period the board determined the project should be divested. This divestment has been reflected in these Financial Accounts.

Notes:

  1. Cu – copper; Zn – zinc, Ag – silver; Au - gold

  2. Intercepts are quoted at a lower cut-off of 0.5% Zn or 0.5% Cu, with up to 2m of internal dilution

  3. Sampling is generally conducted on 1 metre intervals, with a maximum sample interval of 1.5m in areas of poor core recovery.

  4. EOH – end of hole

  5. All samples comprise ½ NQ diamond drill core, cut with chisel or a diamond saw. Drilling recoveries are measured and recorded for individual samples and certified analytical standards have been inserted into the batch at a rate of 1:20. Samples were oven dried, jaw crushed to -6mm, rotary split to a 1,000g sub-sample which was pulverised to 85% <75um. Gold was determined by 50g Fire assay with AA finish with the remaining elements being determined by ICP-AES with four acid digest.

  6. Core recovery is problematic within some of the mineralised intervals and it is possible that if core recovery had been 100% the results obtained would be different to the results reported in Table 1. At this stage it is impossible to accurately assess whether core lost has resulted in an increase or decrease in the grades of the mineralised intervals.

  7. Mineralisation is interpreted to be shallowly dipping, hence drill intercept lengths are approximately true widths of mineralisation.

  1. All collars were located using a handheld GPS and are reported in UTM-WGS84 Zone 60 south

  2. Additional details of the drilling and sampling may be found in Appendix 2 of the company quarterly activities report released on the 31[st] January 2014 (“Heli-Rig NQTT Samples”).

  3. The 3DIP data was acquired by Search Exploration Services (Search) using their own equipment, which consisted of a 64 channel, full waveform receiver and a 30 kVA transmitter. The array used for the bulk of the survey was in the main a double offset dipole-dipole, at Waidere three quarters of a quad offset dipole-dipole array was recorded. The Search receiver measures the full time series voltage difference between each active electrode and a single reference electrode. This enables them to be able to recover the potential difference for any pair of electrodes by simple subtraction. The survey used 50m spaced electrodes for the bulk of the area and 100m spaced electrodes for the Nagasauva grid. From these Search were able to produce data sets at other electrode spacing’s. Search call these multipoles and for the 50m electrode spacing’s they provided 50, 100, 200 and 300m dipoles while for the 100m electrode spacing’s they provided 100, 200, 300 and 400m dipoles. The advantage of acquiring these additional data is that the changing electrode separation produces different sensitivity patterns around the electrode which adds significantly to the resolution of the survey as well as providing additional information at depth. The data was inverted by ExploreGeo Pty Limited of Perth WA. The algorithm used by, was written by Heng Meng Loke (Loke). In total, 9 separate inversion runs were undertaken using both complex and linear perturbation IP models, trapezoidal and non-uniform meshes, L1 and L2 norms and low error subsets from one inversion as input for a second. The option to compute the model resolution was enabled.

12. DIVIDENDS

No dividend has been paid during the Period and no dividend is recommended for the Period.

13. COMMITMENTS

Other than detailed in this report there are no new commitments, other than those that existed as at 30 June 2013 that the Company has entered into during the Period under review.

14. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Other than detailed in this report there are no contingent liabilities.

15. EVENTS AFTER BALANCE SHEET DATE

No other matter or event has arisen since 31 December 2013 that would be likely to materially affect the operations of the Company, or the state of affairs of the Company not otherwise as disclosed in the Company’s financial report.

16. GOING CONCERN

The half-year financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuation of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and liabilities in the normal course of business. As at 31 December 2013 the consolidated entity incurred a profit after tax of $925,774. Exclusive of the discount on acquisition of $1,209,052, the result from operations is a loss after tax of $283,278 and cash outflows from operating activities of $387,713. The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern and to pay their debts as and when they fall due is dependent on the consolidated entity’s ability to raise additional funds through either debt financing or capital raising arrangements.

Having regard to the above, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the entity will have adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparation of the accounts.

DUNCAN DOVICO

Independent Auditor’s Review Report to the members of Dateline Resources Limited

Report on the Condensed Half-year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Dateline Resources Limited and its controlled entity, which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2013 and statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, other selected explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year ended 31 December 2013.

Directors’ responsibility for the half-year financial report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the half-year financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 . This responsibility includes: establishing and maintaining internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the half-year financial report that it is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

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 Interim and Other Financial Reports 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 consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2013 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 Dateline Resources Limited and its controlled entities during the half-year ended 31 December 2013, 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 independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .

DUNCAN DOVICO

Basis for Qualified Conclusion

As a result of a reverse acquisition during the financial period, this is the first period that Dateline Resources Limited is required to prepare a half year financial report and have it reviewed, the balance sheet, income statement, statement of changes in equity, cash flow statement, and other selected explanatory notes for the preceding corresponding half year have not been reviewed or audited. Accordingly, we are not in a position to and do not express any assurance in respect of the comparative information for the period ended 31 December 2012. The financial report for the preceding financial year ended 30 June 2013 has been audited and therefore our review statement is not qualified in respect of the comparative information for the year ended30 June 2013 included in the balance sheet

Qualified Conclusion

Except for the effect, if any, on the comparatives for the preceding corresponding half year that may result from the qualification in the preceding paragraph, based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the half year financial report of Dateline Resources Limited does not present fairly, in all material respects the financial position of the group as at 31 December 2013, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the half year ended on that date, in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements.

Material uncertainty regarding continuation as a going concern

Without further qualification to the opinion expressed above, we draw attention to the financial report which indicates that the Company incurred a profit after tax of $925,792 during the year end 31 December 2013. Exclusive of the discount on acquisition of $1,209,070, the result from operations is a loss after tax of $283,278 and cash outflows from activities of $387,713 over the same period.

As disclosed in note 16 the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Notwithstanding this, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the ability of the Company to raise additional funds through either debt financing or capital raising arrangements. Should additional capital not be raised or revenue streams generated then there is a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the Company may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, and at the amounts stated in the financial report.
