Directors’ report

The directors of Eclipse Metals Limited (“the Company”) submit herewith the operations and financial report of Eclipse Metals Limited and its controlled entities (“the Group”) for the half-year ended 31 December 2018. In order to comply with the provisions of the Corporations Act 2001 , the directors report as follows:

Directors

Mr Rodney Dale Mr Carl Popal Mr Ibrar Idrees

Operating Results

The loss for the Group for the half-year ended 31 December 2018, after providing for income tax, amounted to $186,051 compared with a loss of $264,096 for the half-year ended 31 December 2017.

Principal activities

The principal activity of the Group during the half year was mineral exploration. There were no significant changes to the Group's principal activity during the half year.

Annual General Meeting

The Company held its annual general meeting on 23[rd] November 2018 (“AGM”). All resolutions put to shareholders were passed.

Highlights

Queensland - Mary Valley Manganese

  • Evaluation of trace element analyses indicate pathfinder elements would assist with future geochemical surveys to locate high-grade manganese mineralisation

  • 3D gravity interpretation indicates that detailed gravity surveys together with magnetic surveys would greatly assist in determining more precise targets for further drilling

  • New manganese mineral, Amamoorite, identified

  • Limited rehabilitation works on Amamoor manganese project

Northern Territory Uranium

  • Gravity survey of Ngalia Basin EL 24808-uranium prospect completed

  • Paleochannels indicated

  • Analysis of all previous exploration results is ongoing

QUEENSLAND - MARY VALLEY MANGANESE PROJECT - AMAMOOR

As previously reported, Eclipse Metals (ASX EPM) drilled eight diamond core holes at Amamoor for an aggregate of 152.4m. This drilling program was conducted strictly on a reconnaissance basis and the extent of drilling and sample analyses was limited to contain initial costs.

Further geological and sample analytical results from the diamond drilled core together with progressively remodelled geophysical data has been re-assessed to better understand the depositional structure of manganese mineralisation to facilitate design for follow-up exploration.

Eclipse Metals Limited

Multi-element sample analyses have identified a suite of elements that can be used to identify prospective lithologies and vector towards mineralised zones. Six elements- As, Sb, Sc, Zr, Ti & Hf - constitute a lithogeochemical tool-box for MnO exploration at Amamoor.

A prospective geochemical footprint at Amamoor would be depleted in Sc, Zr, Hf & Ti and enriched in As, Sb. The application and usefulness of this tool-box will only be truly understood when there is a larger sample population to work with.

Part of the recent evaluation work included petrographic, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Xray Defraction (XRD) analysis of selected samples to identify mineral species and compositions. In the course of this work with independent consultants and the CSIRO, a new manganese mineral was identified and named after its location – Amamoorite.

Analysis of all data from previous exploration is being compiled with a view to planning activities in the next field season, later in 2019.

Limited temporary rehabilitation was carried out to protect the exploration area during the wet season.

NORTHERN TERRITORY URANIUM - EL 24808 (Granted) Exploration

In January 2019, the Company announced positive progress on the gravimetric survey that commenced late in 2018 over the 85 km[2] EL24808. This survey has been completed and progressive results are being reviewed. Nearly 1,300 gravity stations were recorded on an initial 400 m x 100 m grid. An area of interest measuring 6 km x 2 km was infilled to 200 m x 100 m spacing.

This survey aims to identify targets for uranium mineralisation, including possible paleo-channels, along the northern side of the Ngalia Basin in proximity to identified uranium and vanadium mineralisation within the Bigrlyi Project held by Energy Metals Ltd.

A comprehensive report will be prepared when all results have been received and analysed.

Exploration Licence Applications

The company has recently been granted ministerial consent to negotiate with Traditional Owners through the NLC with respect to EL applications 31770-772 at its Liverpool project, surrounding ELA27584, and is progressing its response under Section 41 of the Act.

Having completed the first two years of a farm-in and joint venture arrangement on ELA 27584 with Eclipse, during which Rio Tinto Exploration (RTX) continued to pursue an arrangement with the Northern Land Council (NLC), RTX has elected to withdraw from the arrangement. The Company is now planning to pursue negotiations with the Northern Land Council to have this tenement granted in 2019.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ECLIPSE METALS LIMITED

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Eclipse Metals Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2018, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity, and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, condensed notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration for Eclipse Metals Limited (the Company). The Group comprises both Eclipse Metals Limited (the Company) and the entities it controlled during the half year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

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

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2018 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 Eclipse Metals Limited, 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.

Whilst we considered the effectiveness of management’s internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our review was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls.

Our review did not involve an analysis of the prudence of business decisions made by the directors or management.

==> picture [114 x 15] intentionally omitted <==

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , has been provided to the directors of Eclipse Metals Limited on 7 March 2019.

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Eclipse Metals Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2018 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.

Material Uncertainty Regarding Going Concern

We draw attention to note 1a of the financial report, which describes that the financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. At 31 December 2018 the Group had net assets of $2,437,698, cash and cash equivalents of $481,228, capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure of $2,423,957, and net working capital of $13,741. The Group had incurred a loss for the period ended 31 December 2018 of $186,051 and had net cash outflows from operating activities of $189,705.

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern and meet its planned exploration, administration, and other commitments is dependent upon the future successful raising of necessary funding through equity or borrowings, successful exploitation of the Group’s exploration assets, and or sale of non-core assets. In the event that the Group cannot raise further equity or commence profitable operations, the Group may not be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due or realise its assets in the normal course of business. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Eclipse Metals Limited

Condensed notes to the consolidated financial statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2018

1. Significant accounting policies

Statement of compliance

The half-year financial report is a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134 „ Interim Financial Reporting’ . The half-year report does not include notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report and should be read in conjunction with annual financial statements of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2018 together with any public announcements made during the following half-year.

The half-year financial report was authorised for issue by the directors on 07 March 2019.

a. Basis of preparation

These general purpose interim financial statements for the half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2018 have been prepared in accordance with requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.

This interim financial report is intended to provide users with an update on the latest annual financial statements of Eclipse Metals Limited and its controlled entities (referred to as the "Consolidated Group" or "Group"). As such, it does not contain information that represents relatively insignificant changes occurring during the half-year within the Group.

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis that contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary courses of business. For the half year ended 31 December 2018 the Group incurred a loss of $186,051 (31 December 2017: loss $264,096). Based upon the Group‟s existing cash resources of $481,228 (30 June 2018: $687,894) and the ability to modify expenditure outlays if required, and to source additional funds, the Directors consider there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable, and therefore the going concern basis of preparation is considered to be appropriate for the Group‟s 31 December 2018 half year financial report. The Board of Directors is aware, having prepared a cashflow forecast, of the Group‟s working capital requirements and the need to access additional equity funding or asset divestment if required within the next 12 months. In the event that the Group is not able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise assets and extinguish liabilities other than in the normal course of business and perhaps at amounts different to those stated in its financial report.

b. Accounting Policies

The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been followed in this interim financial report as were applied in the most recent annual financial statements. The Group has considered the implications of new and amended Accounting Standards but determined that their application to the financial statements is either not relevant or not material.

Exploration and evaluation expenditure

There is uncertainty as to the recoverability of the deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure assets of Eclipse Metals Limited at their stated values. The recoverability of the deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure assets is dependent upon the successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas.
