Compliance statements DISCLAIMER

This Annual report contains forward looking statements that are subject to risk factors associated with the exploration and mining industry. It is believed that the expectations reflected in these statements are reasonable, but they may be affected by a variety of variables which could cause actual results or trends to differ materially.

EXPLORATION TARGETS

Exploration Targets are reported according to Clause 18 of the JORC Code. This means that the potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature and that considerable further exploration is necessary before any Identified Mineral Resource can be reported. It is uncertain if further exploration will lead to a larger, smaller or any Mineral Resource.

COMPETENT PERSON

The Company is not aware of any new information or data, which hasn’t been previously reported, that materially affects the information included in the report. References to previous ASX releases are included in the Exploration Review under each relevant section.

CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

Robert Kennedy Chairman

Dear fellow Shareholders,

It is with pleasure that I present to you Tychean’s 2016 Annual Report.

Over the past 12 months Tychean has continued to see-through exploration projects with our joint venture partners. We maintain a 15% interest in the ongoing Tanami Joint Venture with Ramelius Resources such that future involvement either through further contribution to the project, or by converting our interest to a 1.5% NSR royalty, will be determined upon a decision to mine.

Tychean’s involvement with Maximus Resources in the Spargoville Gold project has concluded. During the March quarter, Maximus secured a 100% interest in Spargoville’s gold rights. Subsequently and in accordance with the agreement, Maximus issued the proposed number of shares to Tychean, concluding our involvement.

The markets continue to present challenges and increased levels of volatility; however the company will press on and continue to be resourceful in seeking new opportunities in this difficult period, both inside and outside exploration. We endeavour to carry out thorough due diligence in the best interest of Tychean’s shareholders so as to stimulate interest in the company, whereby successful discoveries may encourage new jointventures.

On behalf of the board and shareholders I would like to thank all past employees of the company, for their commitment and loyalty over the last year as we look forward to delivering future success to all stakeholders through persistence and continued hard work.

Yours sincerely,

December 2015 saw Tychean successfully raise $135,000 through a share placement to professional and sophisticated investors, issuing 33.75 million shares. These much needed funds have gone directly toward funding due diligence on new opportunities, and provided additional working capital so as to ensure financial stability of the company in the future. We are thankful to all those who participated in the capital raising.

BOB KENNEDY Chairman

Tychean Resources Limited 2016 Annual Report 1

EXPLORATION REVIEW - 2016

SUMMARY

• Tychean continued its involvement with joint-venture partners Maximus Resources (‘Maximus’ ASX: MXR) and Ramelius Resources (‘Ramelius’ ASX: RMS) across their Australian gold projects in WA and NT.

• Tychean no longer has any interests in the Spargoville Gold Project WA, with Maximus earning a 100% interest. In October 2016, Maximus issued Tychean with the remaining agreed upon number of Maximus shares, as per the Sale and Purchase Agreement signed in February 2016.

• Tychean’s contribution to the Tanami Gold Project through the farm-in and JV agreement with Ramelius in the Northern Territory has been downsized to a 15% free carried interest.

• Tychean is continuing to assess future project and funding opportunities whilst at the same time has cut spending to a minimum, to preserve remaining cash on hand.

Tychean Resources Limited 2016 Annual Report 2

Spargoville Gold Project

• Early in July 2015 Tychean Resources announced the completion of its Redback RC/Diamond Drilling program. It consisted of 9 drill holes for a total of 1,931.80 metres, at the Company’s wholly owned Spargoville Gold Project in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia.

• On 6 July 2015, Tychean issued Blue Spec drilling 75,000,000 shares as part consideration for the Redback drilling activities.

• August 2015 saw Tychean secured a $1.2m deal with Maximus Resources Limited (“Maximus”) as a farm-in joint-venture partner, to fund ongoing exploration and development of the gold project.

• Farm-in partner Maximus Resources Limited conducted a comprehensive exploration review of the ‘Eagles Nest’ Spargoville tenements in WA highlighting numerous exploration targets for follow up drilling.

• Following this, in November 2015 Maximus announced a drilling program for Eagle’s Nest tenements which was completed in December and consisted of 8 holes and 809m, testing for strike and depth extensions to known mineralisation in the Eagles Nest tenements.

• In January 2016, Maximus completed its maiden drilling program on the Spargoville Gold Project with significant gold intersections reported in several holes, some of which were high grade.

• On 17 February 2016, Tychean was issued 100,000,000 Maximus shares in accordance with the Spargoville Sale and Purchase Agreement.

• Consequently, Maximus immediately gained 90% of the project and secured a 100% interest to be finalised upon transfer of further consideration shares.

• On 18 October 2016, Tychean’s involvement with Spargoville came to a conclusion, with Maximus issuing Tychean with the remaining number of shares in accordance with the Sale and Purchase agreement signed in February.

Tychean Resources Limited 2016 Annual Report 3

Tanami Gold Project

• Joint Venture partner Ramelius Resources advised Tychean it had met its earn-in expenditure commitment and hence acquired an 85% interest in the Company’s Tanami Joint Venture project. As a result, Tychean now maintains a free carried 15% interest in the Joint Venture through to a decision to mine.

• Upon any forthcoming decision to mine, Tychean may elect to either further contribute its interest, or convert to a 1.5% NSR Royalty.

• In October 2015, Farm-in partner Ramelius Resource conducted 1346m of drilling over the priority Suplejack tenement North of NT based Callie Gold mine

• Anomalous gold was encountered in Assay Samples, which confirmed the prospectivity of a wider Suplejack drilling target.

A Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

The Group's policy for determining the nature and amounts of emoluments of board members and senior executive officers of the Group is as follows:

Tychean Resources Limited 2016 Annual Report 17

TYCHEAN RESOURCES LIMITED

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Remuneration report – audited (continued)

The Company's Constitution specifies that the total amount of remuneration of non-executive directors shall be fixed from time to time by a general meeting. The current maximum aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors has been set at $300,000 per annum. Directors may apportion any amount up to this maximum amount amongst the non-executive directors as they determine. Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, accommodation and other expenses incurred in performing their duties as directors. The remuneration of the Managing Director is determined by the non-executive directors on the Board as part of the terms and conditions of his employment which are subject to review from time to time. The remuneration of other executive officers and employees is determined by the Managing Director subject to the approval of the Board.

Non-executive director remuneration is by way of fees and statutory superannuation contributions. Non-executive directors do not participate in schemes designed for remuneration of executives nor do they receive options or bonus payments and are not provided with retirement benefits other than salary sacrifice and statutory superannuation.

The Company's remuneration structure is based on a number of factors including the particular experience and performance of the individual in meeting key objectives of the Company. The Board is responsible for assessing relevant employment market conditions and achieving the overall, long term objective of maximising shareholder benefits, through the retention of high quality personnel.

The Company does not presently emphasise payment for results through the provision of cash bonus schemes or other incentive payments based on key performance indicators of the Company given the nature of the Company's business as a mineral exploration entity and the current status of its activities. However the Board may approve the payment of cash bonuses from time to time in order to reward individual executive performance in achieving key objectives as considered appropriate by the Board.

The Company also has an Employee Share Option Plan approved by shareholders that enables the Board to offer eligible employees options to acquire ordinary fully paid shares in the Company. Under the terms of the Plan, options for ordinary fully paid shares may be offered to the Company's eligible employees at no cost unless otherwise determined by the Board in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan. The objective of the Plan is to align the interests of employees and shareholders by providing employees of the Company with the opportunity to participate in the equity of the Company as an incentive to achieve greater success and profitability for the Company and to maximise the long term performance of the Company.

The employment conditions of the Managing Director, Mr Houldsworth are formalised in a contract of employment. The base salary as set out in the employment contract is reviewed annually. The Managing Director’s contract may be terminated at any time on three months’ notice by either party. The Company may terminate these contracts without notice in serious instances of misconduct. Mr Houldsworth resigned as Managing Director on 1 September 2015.

Voting and comments made at the company’s 2015 Annual General Meeting

Tychean Resources Limited received more than 95% of ‘yes’ votes on its remuneration report for the 2015 financial year. The company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM or throughout the year on its remuneration practices.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Year Ended 30 June 2016

1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated Financial Statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated. The Financial Statements are for the consolidated entity consisting of Tychean Resources Limited and its subsidiaries.

(a) Basis of Preparation

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. Tychean Resources Limited is a for profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.

• (i) Compliance with IFRS These consolidated financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

• (ii) New and amended standards adopted by the Group.

A number of new and revised standards became effective for the first time to annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2015. Information on the more significant standard(s) is presented below.

• AASB 2015-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Financial Reporting Requirements for Australian Groups with a Foreign Parent.

• AASB 2015-4 amends AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures to ensure that its reporting requirements on Australian groups with a foreign parent align with those currently available in AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements for such groups. AASB 128 will now only require the ultimate Australian entity to apply the equity method in accounting for interests in associates and joint ventures, if either the entity or the group is a reporting entity, or both the entity and group are reporting entities.

• AASB 2015-4 is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2015.

The adoption of this amendment has not had a material impact on the Group.

(b) Basis of Consolidation

The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Parent and all of its subsidiaries as of 30 June 2016. The Parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the subsidiary. All subsidiaries have a reporting date of 30 June. All transactions and balances between Group companies are eliminated on consolidation, including unrealised gains and losses on transactions between Group companies. Where unrealised losses on intra-group asset sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment from a group perspective. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.

Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are recognised from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.

Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the portion of a subsidiary’s profit or loss and net assets that is not held by the Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on their respective ownership interests.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Year Ended 30 June 2016

1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies continued

(c) Business combinations

Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method which requires an acquiring entity to be identified in all cases. The acquisition date under this method is the date that the acquiring entity obtains control over the acquired entity.

The fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired are recognised in the consolidated financial statements at the acquisition date.

On the acquisition date the consideration transferred is compared with the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. The excess of consideration over the assets acquired is recorded as an exploration & evaluation asset.

(d) Investments in associates and joint ventures

Associates are those entities over which the Group is able to exert significant influence but which are not subsidiaries.

A joint venture is an arrangement that the Group controls jointly with one or more other investors, and over which the Group has rights to a share of the arrangement’s net assets rather than direct rights to underlying assets and obligations for underlying liabilities. A joint arrangement in which the Group has direct rights to underlying assets and obligations for underlying liabilities is classified as a joint operation.

Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Interests in joint operations are accounted for by recognising the Group assets (including its share of any assets held jointly), its liabilities (including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly), its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation, its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation and its expenses (including its share of any expenses incurred jointly).

Any goodwill or fair value adjustment attributable to the Group’s share in the associate or joint venture is not recognised separately and is included in the amount recognised as investment.

The carrying amount of the investment in associates and joint ventures is increased or decreased to recognise the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate and joint venture, adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies of the Group.

Unrealised gains and losses on transactions between the Group and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group interest in those entities. Where unrealised losses are eliminated, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment.

(e) Comparative Amounts

Comparatives are consistent with prior years, unless otherwise stated.

Where a change in comparatives has also affected the opening retained earnings previously presented in a comparative period, an opening statement of financial position at the earliest date of the comparative period has been presented.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Year Ended 30 June 2016

1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies continued

(f) Income Tax

The tax expense recognised in the profit or loss and other comprehensive income relates to current income tax expense plus deferred tax expense (being the movement in deferred tax assets and liabilities and unused tax losses during the year).

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable (recoverable) in respect of the taxable profit (tax loss) for the year and is measured at the amount expected to be paid to (recovered from) the taxation authorities, using the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences which are determined by comparing the carrying amounts of tax bases of assets and liabilities to the carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax consequences relating to a non-monetary asset carried at fair value are determined using the assumption that the carrying amount of the asset will be recovered through sale.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and losses can be utilised.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where there is a legal right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

Current and deferred tax is recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or loss for the period except where the tax arises from a transaction which is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity, in which case the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity respectively.

Tychean Resources Limited and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax consolidation legislation. Each entity in the group recognises its own current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such taxes are measured using the ‘stand-alone taxpayer’ approach to allocation.

Current tax liabilities (assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits in the subsidiaries are immediately transferred to the head entity.

The tax consolidated group has entered into a tax funding arrangement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable by the group in proportion to their contribution to the group’s taxable income. Differences between the amounts of net tax assets and liabilities derecognised and the net amounts recognised pursuant to the funding arrangement are recognised as either a contribution by, or distribution to the head entity.

(g) Leases

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all of the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term.

(h) Revenue and other income

Revenue is recognised when the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and specific criteria relating to the type of revenue as noted below, has been satisfied.

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is presented net of returns, discounts and rebates.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

(i) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

Receivables and payable are stated inclusive of GST.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as part of receivables or payables

in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows in the statement of cash flows are included 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 is classified as operating cash flows.

(j) Property, Plant and Equipment

Where the cost model is used, the asset is carried at its cost less any accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Costs include purchase price, other directly attributable costs and the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and restoring the asset, where applicable.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment is measured on a cost basis. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets’ employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

Subsequent costs are included in the assets’ carrying amounts or recognised as separate assets as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income during the financial year in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all property, plant and equipment, except for freehold land is depreciated on a reducing balance method from the date that management determine that the asset is available for use. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets vary from 25% to 40%.

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 1(l)).

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, it is Group policy to transfer any amounts included in other reserves in respect of those assets to retained earnings.

(k) Financial instruments

Financial instruments are recognised initially using trade date accounting, i.e. on the date the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

On initial recognition, all financial instruments are measured at fair value plus transaction costs (except for instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss where transaction costs are expensed as incurred).

(l) Impairment of non-financial assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

(m) Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statement of cash flows, 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 12 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. Any bank overdrafts the Group have are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position.

(n) Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits are benefits, other than termination benefits, that are expected to be settled wholly within twelve (12) months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. Examples of such benefits include wages and salaries, non-monetary benefits and accumulating sick leave. Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Other long-term employee benefits

The Group’s liabilities for annual leave and long service leave are included in other long term benefits as they are not expected to be settled wholly within twelve (12) months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are measured at the present value of the expected future payments to be made to employees. The expected future payments incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service, and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on high quality corporate bonds (2015: government bonds) that have maturity dates that approximate the timing of the estimated future cash outflows. Any remeasurements arising from experience adjustments and changes in assumptions are recognised in profit or loss in the periods in which the changes occur.

The Group presents employee benefit obligations as current liabilities in the statement of financial position if the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve (12) months after the reporting period, irrespective of when the actual settlement is expected to take place.

(o) Earnings per share

Tychean Resources Ltd presents basic and diluted earnings per share information for its ordinary shares.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to owners of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

(p) Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options which vest immediately are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

(q) Share Based Payments

The Group operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using a Binomial pricing model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options or shares granted. This expense takes in account any market performance conditions and the impact of any non-vesting conditions but ignores the effect of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Year Ended 30 June 2016

1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies continued

Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account when considering the number of options expected to vest. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of options which are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting conditions. Revisions to the prior period estimate are recognised in profit or loss and equity.

(r) Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the Group entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.

(s) Exploration and development expenditure

Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. As the asset is not available for use it is not depreciated or amortised.

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit or loss in the period in which the decision to abandon that area is made.

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.

(t) Adoption of new and revised accounting standards

A number of new and revised standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2015. Information on these new standards is presented below.

Recently issued accounting standards to be applied in future accounting periods.

The accounting standards that have not been early adopted for the year ended 30 June 2016, but will be applicable to the Group in future reporting periods are detailed below.

AASB 9_Financial_ Instruments (December 2014) [Also refer to AASB 2013-9 and AASB 2014-1 below]	AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement	b Allows an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income (instead of in profit or loss). Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument. c Introduces a ‘fair value through other comprehensive income’ measurement category for particular simple debt instruments. d Financial assets can be designated and measured at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would arise from measuring assets or liabilities, or recognising the gains and losses on them, on different bases. e Where the fair value option is used for financial liabilities the change in fair value is to be accounted for as follows: the change attributable to changes in credit risk are presented in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) the remaining change is presented in profit or loss If this approach creates or enlarges an accounting mismatch in the profit or loss, the effect of the changes in credit risk are also presented in profit or loss. Otherwise, the following requirements have generally been carried forward unchanged from AASB 139 into AASB 9: classification and measurement of financial liabilities; and derecognition requirements for financial assets and liabilities AASB 9 requirements regarding hedge accounting represent a substantial overhaul of hedge accounting that enable entities to better reflect their risk management activities in the financial statements. Furthermore, AASB 9 introduces a new impairment model based on expected credit losses. This model makes use of more forward-looking information and applies to all financial instruments that are subject to impairment accounting.	1 January 2018	The entity is yet to undertake a detailed assessment of the impact of AASB 9. However, based on the entity’s preliminary assessment, the Standard is not expected to have a material impact on the transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements when it is first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2019.
AASB 1057 Application of Australian Accounting Standards	None	In May 2015, the AASB decided to revise Australian Accounting Standards that incorporate IFRSs to minimise Australian-specific wording even further. The AASB noted that IFRSs do not contain application paragraphs that identify the entities and financial reports to which the Standards (and Interpretations) apply. As a result, the AASB decided to move the application paragraphs previously contained in each Australian Accounting Standard (or Interpretation), unchanged, into a new Standard AASB 1057_Application of Australian_ Accounting Standards.	1 January 2016	When this Standard is first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2017, there will be no impact on the financial statements.

AASB 2014-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations	None	The amendments to AASB 11 state that an acquirer of an interest in a joint operation in which the activity of the joint operation constitutes a ‘business’, as defined in AASB 3 Business Combinations, should: 1 Apply all of the principles on business combinations accounting in AASB 3 and other Australian Accounting Standards except principles that conflict with the guidance of AASB 11. This requirement also applies to the acquisition of additional interests in an existing joint operation that results in the acquirer retaining joint control of the joint operation (note that this requirement applies to the additional interest only, i.e. the existing interest is not re-measured) and to the formation of a joint operation when an existing business is contributed to the joint operation by one of the parties that participate in the joint operation; and 2 Provide disclosures for business combinations as required by AASB 3 and other Australian Accounting Standards.	1 January 2016	When these amendments are first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2017, there will be no material impact on the transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements.
AASB 2014-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation	None	The amendments to AASB 116 prohibit the use of a revenue-based depreciation method for property, plant and equipment. Additionally, the amendments provide guidance in the application of the diminishing balance method for property, plant and equipment. The amendments to AASB 138 present a rebuttable presumption that a revenue-based amortisation method for intangible assets is inappropriate. This rebuttable presumption can be overcome (i.e. a revenue-based amortisation method might be appropriate) only in two (2) limited circumstances: 1 The intangible asset is expressed as a measure of revenue, for example when the predominant limiting factor inherent in an intangible asset is the achievement of a revenue threshold (for instance, the right to operate a toll road could be based on a fixed total amount of revenue to be generated from cumulative tolls charged); or 2 When it can be demonstrated that revenue and the consumption of the economic benefits of the intangible asset are highlycorrelated.	1 January 2016	When these amendments are first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2017, there will be no material impact on the transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements.
AASB 2014-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 15	None	AASB 2014-5 incorporates the consequential amendments arising from the issuance of AASB 15.	1 January 2018	Refer to the section on AASB 15 above.

AASB 2014-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture	None	The amendments address a current inconsistency between AASB 10_Consolidated Financial Statements_ and AASB 128_Investments in Associates and Joint_ Ventures. The amendments clarify that, on a sale or contribution of assets to a joint venture or associate or on a loss of control when joint control or significant influence is retained in a transaction involving an associate or a joint venture, any gain or loss recognised will depend on whether the assets or subsidiary constitute a business, as defined in AASB 3_Business Combinations_. Full gain or loss is recognised when the assets or subsidiary constitute a business, whereas gain or loss attributable to other investors’ interests is recognised when the assets or subsidiary do not constitute a business. This amendment effectively introduces an exception to the general requirement in AASB 10 to recognise full gain or loss on the loss of control over a subsidiary. The exception only applies to the loss of control over a subsidiary that does not contain a business, if the loss of control is the result of a transaction involving an associate or a joint venture that is accounted for using the equity method. Corresponding amendments have also been made to AASB 128. AASB 2015-10_Amendments to Australian Accounting_ Standards – Effective Date of Amendments to AASB 10 _and AASB 128_deferred the mandatory application date of AASB 2014-10 from 1 January 2016 to 1 January 2018.

AASB 2015-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual Improvements to Australian Accounting Standards 2012- 2014 Cycle	None	These amendments arise from the issuance of_Annual_ Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle_in September 2014 by the IASB. Among other improvements, the amendments clarify that when an entity reclassifies an asset (or disposal group) directly from being held for sale to being held for distribution (or vice-versa), the accounting guidance in paragraphs 27-29 of AASB 5_Non-current Assets Held for _Sale and Discontinued Operations_does not apply. The amendments also state that when an entity determines that the asset (or disposal group) is no longer available for immediate distribution or that the distribution is no longer highly probable, it should cease held-for- distribution accounting and apply the guidance in paragraphs 27-29 of AASB 5.	1 January 2016	When these amendments are first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2017, there will be no material impact on the financial statements.

AASB 2015-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 101	None	The Standard makes amendments to AASB 101 _Presentation of Financial Statements_arising from the IASB’s Disclosure Initiative project. The amendments: clarify the materiality requirements in AASB 101, including an emphasis on the potentially detrimental effect of obscuring useful information with immaterial information clarify that AASB 101’s specified line items in the statement(s) of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and the statement of financial position can be disaggregated add requirements for how an entity should present subtotals in the statement(s) of profit and loss and other comprehensive income and the statement of financial position clarify that entities have flexibility as to the order in which they present the notes, but also emphasise that understandability and comparability should be considered by an entity when deciding that order remove potentially unhelpful guidance in AASB 101 for identifying a significant accounting policy	1 January 2016	When these amendments are first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2017, there will be no material impact on the financial statements.
AASB 2015-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Effective Date of AASB 15	None	AASB 2015-8 amends the mandatory application date of AASB 15_Revenue from Contracts with Customers_so that AASB 15 is required to be applied for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 instead of 1 January 2017. It also defers the consequential amendments that were originally set out in AASB 2014-5_Amendments to Australian Accounting_ Standards arising from AASB 15.	1 January 2017	Refer to the section on AASB 15 above.
AASB 2015-9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Scope and Application Paragraphs	None	AASB 2015-9 inserts scope paragraphs into AASB 8 Operating Segments_and AASB 133_Earnings per Share in place of application paragraph text in AASB 1057. In July and August 2015, the AASB reissued AASB 8, AASB 133 and most of the Australian Accounting Standards that incorporate IFRSs to make editorial changes. The application paragraphs in the previous versions of AASB 8 and AASB 133 covered scope paragraphs that appear separately in the corresponding IFRS 8 and IAS 33. In moving those application paragraphs to AASB 1057 when AASB 8 and AASB 133 were reissued in August, the AASB inadvertently deleted the scope details from AASB 8 and AASB 133. This amending Standard puts the scope details into those Standards, and removes the related text from AASB 1057. There is no change to the requirements or the applicability of AASB 8 and AASB 133.	1 January 2016	When this Standard is first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2017, there will be no impact on the financial statements.

Clarifications to IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers	None	The amendments clarify the application of IFRS 15 in three (3) specific areas to reduce the extent of diversity in practice that might otherwise result from differing views on how to implement the requirements of the new standard. They will help companies: 1. Identify performance obligations (by clarifying how to apply the concept of ‘distinct’); 2. Determine whether a company is a principal or an agent in a transaction (by clarifying how to apply the control principle); 3. Determine whether a licence transfers to a customer at a point in time or over time (by clarifying when a company’s activities significantly affect the intellectual property to which the customer has rights). The amendments also create two (2) additional practical expedients available for use when implementing IFRS 15: 1. For contracts that have been modified before the beginning of the earliest period presented, the amendments allow companies to use hindsight when identifying the performance obligations, determining the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations. 2. Companies applying the full retrospective method are permitted to ignore contracts already complete at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The AASB is expected to publish the equivalent Australian amendments in quarter 2 of 2016.	1 January 2018	When these amendments are first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2019, there will be no material impact on the financial statements.

(u) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision makers. The chief operation decision maker has been identified as the Board of Directors.

(v) Trade Receivables

Trade Receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. They are presented as current assets unless collection is not expected for more than 12 months after the reporting date.

(w) Reserves

Reserves represent the share option reserve. This reserve records items recognised as expenses on valuation of employee share options and rights.

(x) Key estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments. These 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 Group and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:

(i) Estimated impairment

The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined.

(ii) Exploration and evaluation

The Group policy for exploration and evaluation is discussed in note 1 (s). The application of this policy requires management to make certain assumptions as to future events and circumstances. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure, management concludes that the capitalised expenditure is unlikely to be recovered by future sale or exploration, then the relevant capitalised amount will be written off through the statement of profit or loss. The related carrying amounts are disclosed in note 3.

(y) Financial report

The financial report was authorised for issue on 2 August 2016 by the Board of directors.

5 Operating Segments

Segment information

Identification of reportable segments

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.

The Group is managed primarily on the basis of geographical area of interest as the diversifications of the Group’s operations inherently have notably different risk profiles and performance assessment criteria. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis.

Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic characteristics and are also similar with respect to the following:

• geographical location; and

• any external regulatory requirements.

Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments

(a) Accounting policies adopted

Unless stated below, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief operating decision maker with respect to operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial statements of Tychean Resources Ltd

The recoverability of the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest.

The impairment of the exploration assets in 2015/2016 relates predominantly to the impairment within the Spargoville and Valley Floor Areas of Interest. An agreement was entered into to dispose of its interest in the Spargoville Project to a third party. Tenements with the Valley Floor Area of Interest were surrendered within the 2015/2016 year.

16 Financial Risk Management continued

Objectives, policies and processes

Specific information regarding the mitigation of each financial risk to which the Group is exposed is provided below.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the Group’s management of working capital.

It is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due.

The Group’s policy is to ensure that it will always have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they become due. The Group maintains cash to meet its liquidity requirements for up to 30-day periods.

The Group manages its liquidity needs by carefully monitoring long-term financial liabilities as well as cash-outflows due in day-to-day business.

Liquidity needs are monitored in various time bands, on a day-to-day and week-to-week basis, as well as on the basis of a rolling 30-day projection. Long-term liquidity needs for a 180-day and a 360-day period are identified monthly.

At the reporting date, these reports indicate that the Group expected to have sufficient liquid resources to meet its obligations under all reasonably expected circumstances.

The Group liabilities have contractual maturities which are summarised below:

Financial assets - cash flows realisable Cash and cash equivalents Trade, term and loans receivables Total	Not later than 1 month 1 to 3 months 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ 288,331 102,522 - - - 6,005 50,000 -
	288,331 108,527 50,000 -

Market risk

(i) Foreign currency sensitivity

All of the Group transactions are carried out in Australian Dollars, therefore the Group is not exposed to foreign exchange risk.

(ii) Cash flow interest rate sensitivity

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk.

The following table illustrates the sensitivity of the net result for the year and equity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates of +2.00% and -2.00% (2015: +2.00%/-2.00%), with effect from the beginning of the year. These changes are considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of current market conditions.

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group.

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposure to wholesale and retail customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions.

Management considers that all the financial assets that are not impaired for each of the reporting dates under review are of good credit quality, including those that are past due.

The credit risk for liquid funds and other short-term financial assets is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings.

Net fair values

Fair value estimation

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the following table and can be compared to their carrying values as presented in the consolidated statement of financial position. Fair values are those amounts at which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction.

Fair values derived may be based on information that is estimated or subject to judgement, where changes in assumptions may have a material impact on the amounts estimated. Areas of judgement and the assumptions have been detailed below. Where possible, valuation information used to calculate fair value is extracted from the market, with more reliable information available from markets that are actively traded.

28 Going concern

The financial report has been prepared on the basis of going concern.

The cash flow projections of the Group indicate that it will require positive cash flows from additional capital or sale of assets for continued operations. The Group incurred a loss of $3,677,163. The Group’s cash balance at 30 June 2016 was $288,331.

The Group's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent on obtaining additional capital and/or sale of assets. If additional capital is not obtained or assets not sold, the going concern basis may not be appropriate, with the result that the consolidated entity may have to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities, other than in the ordinary course of business and in amounts different from those stated in the financial report. No allowance for such circumstances has been made in the financial report.

This Explanatory Statement accompanies and forms part of the Notice of Annual General Meeting dated 13 October 2016 ( Notice ) and has been prepared to provide shareholders with material information to enable them to make an informed decision on the business to be conducted at the meeting of the Company. Amongst other things, this Explanatory Statement provides shareholders with the information required to be provided to shareholders by the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules.

The Explanatory Statement sets out an explanation of each of the resolutions to be put to shareholders. Shareholders should read this Explanatory Statement carefully before determining how to vote in respect of the resolutions.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT

The first item of the Notice is to receive and consider the annual financial report for the Company for the year ended 30 June 2016, comprising the financial statements and notes, together with the directors’ report and the auditor’s report. No resolution is required in respect of this agenda item. However, it provides shareholders with the opportunity to ask questions of the Company’s management and auditors in relation to the Company’s results and operations for that financial year. The annual financial report may be found on the Company’s website at: http://www.tycheanresources.com/reports.html.

RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF THE REMUNERATION REPORT

In accordance with section 250R of the Corporations Act the Company submits to shareholders for consideration and adoption by way of a non-binding resolution its remuneration report for the year ended 30 June 2016. The remuneration report is a distinct section of the directors’ report that deals with the remuneration of directors and KMP of the Company and can be located on pages 17 to 20 in the 2016 annual financial report and also on the Company’s website.

The remuneration report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for its directors, officers and senior management.

Shareholders will be given reasonable opportunity at the meeting to discuss the report.

The directors recommend shareholders vote in favour of adopting the remuneration report.

The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of resolution 1.

RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF MR VICKERY AS A DIRECTOR

Under the Company’s constitution, one third of the directors (excluding the Managing Director) must retire at the Annual General Meeting. The director will be eligible for re-election. The director required to retire under the above framework is Mr Ewan Vickery. Mr Vickery has indicated that he will offer himself for reelection by members at the meeting.

In accordance with clause 47 of the Company’s constitution, Mr Vickery retires and being eligible, has offered himself for re-election. A brief summary of Mr Vickery’s qualifications and experience follows.

Ewan Vickery

A director since May 2013, Mr Vickery is a corporate and business lawyer with over 40 years’ experience in private practice in Adelaide. He has acted as an advisor to companies on a variety of corporate and business issues including capital and corporate restructuring, native title and land access issues, and as lead native title advisor and negotiator for numerous mining and petroleum companies.

The directors (except Mr Vickery, who abstains) recommend shareholders vote in favour of the re-election of Mr Vickery.

The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of resolution 2.

RESOLUTION 3 – RATIFICATION OF A PREVIOUS ISSUE OF SHARES

The Company has issued 33,750,000 fully paid ordinary shares at $0.004 per fully paid ordinary share in a placement to sophisticated and professional investors.

These shares were issued on 23 December 2015 on the same terms and conditions as other existing ordinary shares in the Company quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange.

The funds raised by the placement have been and will be used to:

• progress due diligence activities on various opportunities;

• provide working capital to the Company.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, except in limited circumstances, prior approval of shareholders is required for an issue of securities if the securities will, when aggregated with securities issued by the Company during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of shares on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

The issue of the shares detailed in resolution 3 did not exceed the 15% limit referred to above.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that where a company ratifies an issue of securities, the issue will be treated as having been made with approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1, thereby refreshing the company’s 15% capacity and enabling it to issue further securities up to that limit.

Resolution 3 proposes the ratification and approval of the allotment and issue of 33,750,000 shares to sophisticated and professional investors for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.4.

ASX Listing Rule 14.9 requires the approval be given by an ordinary resolution of the Company.

The directors recommend shareholders vote in favour of ratifying the placement made in December 2015.

The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of resolution 3.

Definitions:

Key Management Personnel (KMP) of the Company are, as adopted from the Australian Accounting Standards Board, those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company.

Closely related parties of the Company’s KMP include certain family members, dependants and companies they control.

VOTING INFORMATION AND NOTES

1. Voting entitlement on a poll

On a poll, each shareholder present (in person, by proxy, attorney or representative) has one vote for each fully paid share they hold.

2.

Proxies

A shareholder entitled to attend and vote at this meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on the shareholder’s behalf. If the shareholder is entitled to cast two or more votes at the meeting, the shareholder may appoint up to two proxies to attend and vote on the shareholder’s behalf.

If a shareholder appoints two proxies, each proxy must be appointed to represent a specified proportion or number of the shareholder’s votes. Absent this specification, on a poll, each proxy may exercise half the votes.

A proxy can be either an individual or a body corporate and need not be a shareholder of the Company. If a shareholder appoints a body corporate as proxy, the body corporate will need to appoint an individual as its corporate representative and provide satisfactory evidence of this appointment.

If a shareholder’s instruction is to abstain from voting for a particular item of business, the shareholders’ votes will not be counted in computing the required majority on a poll.

To appoint a proxy, a proxy form must be signed by the shareholder or the shareholder’s attorney duly authorised in writing. If the shareholder is a corporation, the proxy form must be signed in accordance with section 127 of the Corporations Act. To be effective, a proxy form (and, if it is signed by an attorney, the authority under which it is signed or a certified copy of the authority) must be received by the Company not later than 48 hours prior to the commencement of the meeting. Proxy form and authorities may be lodged:

• by post to Computershare Investor Services Pty Ltd, GPO Box 242, Melbourne VIC 3001, or;

• by facsimile to Computershare on (within Australia) 1800 783 447 (outside Australia) +61 3 9473 2555 or the Company on +61 8 7324 3195; or

To use this facility you will need your holder number (SRN or HIN), postcode and control number as shown on the proxy form. You will have been taken to have signed the proxy form if you lodge it in accordance with the instructions on the website.

Custodian voting - For Intermediary Online subscribers only (custodians), please visit www.intermediaryonline.com to submit your voting intentions.

Shareholders who forward their proxy forms by fax must make available the original executed form of the proxy for production at the meeting, if called upon to do so.

Chairman acting as proxy

Shareholders may appoint the chairman of the meeting as their proxy.

Where the chairman is appointed as a proxy by a shareholder entitled to cast a vote on a particular resolution and the proxy form specifies how the chairman is to vote on the resolution (that is, a directed proxy), the chairman must vote in accordance with that direction.

In respect of proxies where no voting direction has been given (undirected proxies), the chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of each resolution.

In relation to resolution 1, if the shareholder has appointed the chairman as their proxy and no voting direction has been given, the shareholder will be expressly authorising the chairman to exercise the undirected proxy in respect of resolution 1 even though the resolution is connected with the remuneration of members of the KMP of the Company. Please read the directions on the proxy form carefully, especially if you intend to appoint the chairman of the meeting as your proxy.

3. Entitlement to vote at the meeting

For the purpose of the meeting, shares in the Company will be taken to be held by those persons who are registered holders at 6.30pm (Adelaide time) on 28 November 2016.
