Review of Operations

Introduction

West Peak Iron Limited is a junior exploration company with a primary focus on iron ore exploration. West Peak has built up an attractive land holding in Liberia, West Africa, which is currently considered one of the most prospective areas in the world to explore.

Work completed to date has focussed on target generation through field-based work including geological mapping and rock chip sampling in Australia and Liberia, and the flying of high-resolution airborne magnetic-radiometric surveys over four Liberian projects. Subsequent modelling of the magnetic data provided exploration tonnage target sizes for the Liberian projects. Results from this work have been encouraging, identifying both direct shipping ore and beneficiated feed ore targets in Australia and Liberia. West Peak will continue to actively explore its land holdings with the goal of identifying iron resources which have a potential economic outcome.

Liberia

Liberia is located in West Africa where it borders Guinea, Sierra Leone and Côte d'Ivoire (Figure 1). West Peak has been granted three iron ore exploration licences and one reconnaissance licence, which is currently in the process of being converted to an exploration licence, for a total area of 972 km² in the Grand Bassa, Bomi, Bong and River Cess counties. All licences contain iron-bearing formations and are strategically located close to port, rail and road infrastructure, both existing and currently being upgraded to meet iron ore industry requirements.

Liberia is a country with a history of iron ore mining dating back to the 1950s, when the first shipping of iron ore began, and continued through the 1970s and 1980s as a major world exporter. Mining ceased during the civil unrest which lasted for seven years ending in 2003. Liberia held its first elections in 2005 when Her Excellency Ellen Johnston Sirleaf was democratically elected as president. In the subsequent eight years, Liberia has enjoyed a period of political stability which has translated into significant foreign investment, particularly in the iron sector, from major mining houses like BHP Billiton and ArcelorMittal.

Review of Operations (continued)

img-1.jpeg
Figure 1. Regional location of the West Peak granted licences and current iron ore projects in Liberia.

The geology of Liberia comprises two provinces being the Archaean Man Craton in the northwest and the Proterozoic Birimian sequence in the southeast. West Peak project locations are found exclusively in the Man Craton which is a granite-greenstone terrain that has been subjected to medium to high grade metamorphism resulting in a variety of metamorphic rocks including itabirites.

The geological model employed by West Peak is typical of West African iron ore deposits where metamorphism has resulted in recrystallisation of magnetite-rich iron formations (BIFs) to produce "itabirites" with grades ranging from $20\%$ to $40\%$ Fe. These units have then been subjected to geochemical weathering and transformation by supergene processes to produce a hematite itabirite unit, where iron grades are enriched up to $60\%$ Fe. Overlying this unit is a weathered cap comprising laterite, limonite, hematite and goethite where iron grades range from $20\%$ to $65\%$ Fe.

Detrital "canga" iron mineralisation has also been observed and represents transported and enriched BIF material down slope where it has been re-cemented in an iron-rich matrix with grades generally ranging from $40\%$ to $60\%$ Fe.

The predominant focus of exploration in Liberia for the year was to test some of the identified iron prospects by drilling at the Bomi South Project. Field work consisting of mapping and geochemical sampling programs continued to advance the understanding and in the target generation process.

West Peak's social development program expanded from the previous year's commitment to reach further communities and deliver an increase in water pumps constructed and repaired and assistance provided for the construction of a local school in a community which had none.

Bomi South Project

The Bomi South project is located approximately 60 km NNE of Monrovia and is accessed by sealed road to the western tenement boundary and an unsealed road, which is currently being sealed, 2 km from the eastern boundary (Figure 2). The geology is predominantly comprised of a composite gneiss sequence containing generally E-W-striking itabirite units. These units outcrop intermittently over the tenement as ridges with strike lengths of up to 4 km and elevations up to 100 m, but generally averaging 30-50 m. These units are considered to be the western continuation of the iron formations found in the Bong Ranges that have been historically mined the Bong Iron Project which is currently being recommissioned by China Union and is scheduled to commence production in 2013.

img-2.jpeg
Figure 2. Location of Bomi South Project and prospects drilled

The Bomi South project comprises several anomalous magnetic areas which have been grouped into prospects named Areas 1 to 7 (Figure 3). Within these prospect areas are multiple magnetic bodies which have been individually modelled and indicate strike lengths of 115-1,000 m and widths of 20-100 m with dip angles ranging from sub-vertical to relatively flat lying.

Figure 3. Prospect areas overlain on the vertical integral of the analytic signal aeromagnetic image.

Drill programs consisting of 50 RC holes for $3,290\mathrm{m}$ were carried out in two phases over prospects Area 1, 4 and 6 and targeted iron formations identified from field mapping and coincident magnetic anomalies and geochemical sampling from surface and trenching / pitting programs.

Drilling intersected iron enrichment which consisted of hematite/ goethite enriched capping at varying depths overlaying banded iron formations which are interpreted to be itabirites units. The itabirites units intersected have an interpreted true thickness ranging up to $40\mathrm{m}$ , as shown in figure 4. The itabirites can be further classified into friable units, which occur from surface and compact or primary itabirites with increasing depth. No significant amount of DSO iron mineralisation was encountered with the highest individual assay returned of $58.30\%$ Fe near surface. The programs from this area moving forward will focus on the friable iron formation which West Peak believes may be amenable to beneficiation to a saleable product.

Central Liberian Projects

The Central Liberian Projects consist of three projects: Grand Bassa, Bobo Creek and Mount Koklun, as shown in Figure 4. Grand Bassa and Bobo Creek are granted exploration licence's while Mount Koklun currently is in application before the Ministry of Lands, Mines and Energy of Liberia to convert from a reconnaissance licence into an exploration licence. In order for ground disturbing exploration to be carried out an exploration licence must be held.

A high resolution geophysical survey was flown in 2011 covering the three projects and magnetic anomalism was identified which is coincident to iron formations mapped from the historic US Geological Survey compiled data.

img-5.jpeg
Figure 5. Central Liberian project locations showing key infrastructure and iron projects.

Grand Bassa

The Grand Bassa project consists of an exploration licence and is located approximately 10 km east of the port town of Buchanan (Figure 5). The project area is accessed by an unsealed road which runs parallel to the operating railway line servicing ArcelorMittal's Yekepa iron mine to the port of Buchanan.

Following a field reconnaissance visit, 85% of the original licence was surrendered due to the lack of potential for economic iron mineralisation. The retained licence area was then flown with a high-resolution aeromagnetic survey which identified a magnetic anomaly of approximately 3 km in strike length (Figure 6). This anomaly is coincident with surface iron enrichment in the form of a hematite/goethite-rich cap interpreted to overlie itabirite units.

West Peak intends to follow up the magnetic anomaly with a trenching program to identify a target for drilling.

Bobo Creek Project

The Bobo Creek Reconnaissance Licence (BCRL) is located approximately 70 km east of the port of Buchanan (Figure 5) and covers an area of 200 km2. An application to convert this licence from a reconnaissance licence to an exploration licence was successful with the Ministry for Lands, Mines and Energy of Liberia granting the licence in February 2013. For ground disturbing exploration to be carried out an exploration licence must be held.

The licence area contains a gneiss unit and a composite unit, which includes prospective iron formations. Results from the aeromagnetic survey have highlighted an anomaly of approximately 15 km strike length which is coincident with the iron-bearing composite unit (Figure 7). A field visit conducted in November 2011 identified surface iron enrichment in the form of a hematite/goethite-rich cap interpreted to overlie itabirite units. Rock chip results returned iron grades of between $22.98\%$ and $58.25\%$ Fe and represent hematite-rich capping and magnetite-bearing iron formation which may be beneficiated.

Mount Koklun Project

The Mount Koklun Reconnaissance Licence (MKRL) is located 100 km inland from the port of Buchanan (Figure 5). The MKRL covers an area of 129 km² and contains iron-bearing formations, including 4 km of outcropping itabirite, which are considered prospective for iron ore mineralisation. An application to convert the Mount Koklun reconnaissance licence to an exploration licence is currently before the Ministry for Lands, Mines and Energy of Liberia.

A brief field visit was conducted in late November 2011 to verify the presence of iron formations shown on the United States Geological Survey (USGS) compiled regional maps. Itabirite units were identified and rock chip samples taken returned iron grades ranging up to 41% Fe. These iron formations ranged from moderate to coarse grained with varying degrees of hardness, which reflected the differing extent of weathering.

A hematite/goethite-capping was also identified on the topographic highs and on the down slopes ranging in grade from 30% to 55% Fe. This is interpreted to represent a supergene iron-enriched capping on the itabirite units which form the topographic highs and detrital iron enrichment on the down slopes and adjacent lowlands.

Subsequent to the field visit, the aeromagnetic results (Figure 7) have identified additional areas of interest which will be followed up with field mapping and sampling.

Social Development Program

West Peak is fully aware of its obligations to provide direct benefits to the local communities that West Peak is operating in through assistance programs. These programs are created in consultation with the local community to provide the best outcomes for all stakeholders. West Peak has focused predominately on sanitation through the construction on hand pumps to provide clean drinking water and latrines. Other programs have seen the provision of school supplies to local schools and construction materials to allow the local community of Coleman Hill to build their own primary school.

Western Australia

West Peak has divested the majority of its Western Australian assets upon a review of the projects immediate potential and ongoing costs associated with keeping them in good standing and the company's decision to focus its exploration attention on the Liberian projects. The tenement holding has been reduced to 10 tenements as at 4 September 2013.

During the year West Peak carried out a moderate drill program consisting of 1,132m of RC drilling at the Highway prospect, which is in the Paynes Find project. The program targeted DSO iron mineralisation at the Highway prospect following up a field mapping and rock chip sampling program where returned samples assayed 60+ Fe. Iron formation was intercepted which showed varying degrees of supergene enrichment, but no significant DSO mineralisation was identified.

Pinyalling Project

The Pinyalling Project is located approximately 420 km northeast of Perth and 50 km northwest of Paynes Find (Figure 12) covering parts of the Warriedar greenstone belt which hosts significant iron ore deposits. Within the Pinyalling project is the Thundelarra prospect, which contains three magnetite-bearing BIFs ranging in width from 5 to 30m, that outcrop over a strike length of approximately 3 km with grades ranging 29% to 35% iron. The aeromagnetic data indicate approximately 7.5 km of potential BIF within the tenement area. Based on the field mapping results, further assessment of the geophysical data is required to delineate an iron ore target of suitable size to warrant drill testing.

No work was conducted on the prospect during the reporting period.

Kirkalocka Project

The Kirkalocka Project is located approximately 70 km south of Mount Magnet on the Great Northern Highway and consists of two granted tenements for 260 km². The project covers part of the Wydgee greenstone belt that comprises a complex sequence of volcanic rocks, banded iron formation and sediments flanked by granites.

Previous work has consisted of the compilation and review of open-file data to assess the project's potential for iron ore, gold and base metal mineralisation. Included in this review was the identification of heritage sites and which resulted in the withdrawal of five licence applications. A field reconnaissance visit was conducted at the project area with no significant surface iron enrichment encountered and as such future exploration at the Kirkalocka project will be focused on its gold and base metal potential.

Narndee Project

The Narndee Project is located approximately 65 km northeast of Paynes Find, which is 420 km from Perth via the Great Northern Highway, in the Murchison region of Western Australia. The physiology of the project area consists of small topographic highs surrounded by residual colluviums and alluvium.

The project occurs in the Narndee Complex which is a layered intrusive that has intruded greenstone belts. The complex is approximately 40 km long well layered mafic and ultramafic rocks and is considered to be divided into two distinct layered sequences; Narndee Complex North and Narndee Complex South. The Narndee Complex North has been identified to contain a greater proportion of ultramafics. These layers are concentric in nature with dips of 40-70° directed inwards of the intrusive. The greenstone sequence consists of poorly outcropping felsic to intermediate volcanics with interlayered metasediments and BIF.

West Peak's exploration focus has been solely on the potential of the BIF units to host economic iron ore. The project area's previous exploration covered gold and base metals where several anomalous geochemical responses were returned however no significant mineralisation has been identified to date.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (continued)

Non-executive director remuneration

The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Group with the ability to attract and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders. The Group's constitution states that an aggregate remuneration of $250,000 per period can be paid to the non-executive directors. The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst Directors is reviewed annually.

The Board considers advice from external shareholders as well as the fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process. Each director receives a fee for being a director of the Group. The current fee for non-executive directors is $30,000 per annum.

Senior manager and executive director remuneration

Remuneration consists of fixed remuneration and Company options (as determined from time to time). In addition the Group employees and directors, the Group has contracted key consultants on contractual basis. These contracts stipulate the remuneration to be paid to the consultants.

Fixed Remuneration

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Independent Directors Committee. The process consists of a review of relevant comparative remuneration in the market and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices. The Committee has access to external, independent advice where necessary.

The fixed remuneration component of the Key Management Personnel, is detailed in Table 1.

Remuneration Report (continued)

Variable Remuneration

No variable remuneration is paid. Long term incentives are issued in the form of Company options. To date 6,000,000 Company options have been issued to directors and 2,500,000 to key executives. These options and shares do not draw on the cash reserves of the Group and provide incentive for the directors to increase shareholder value, given that the options that have been issued are out of the money.

Employment Contracts

On 1 September 2012, the Group entered into an executive consulting services agreement with Mr Walker (Executive Consulting Services Agreement) effective as from 1 September 2012. Under the Executive Consulting Services Agreement, Mr Walker is engaged to provide services to the Group in the capacity of Executive Director, based in Perth, Western Australia.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

The Board of Directors of West Peak Iron Limited is responsible for the corporate governance of the Group. The Board guides and monitors the business and affairs of West Peak Iron Limited on behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable.

West Peak Iron Limited's Corporate Governance Statement is structured with reference to the Corporate Governance Council's principles and recommendations, which are as follows:

  • Principle 1. Lay solid foundations for management and oversight
  • Principle 2. Structure the board to add value
  • Principle 3. Promote ethical and responsible decision making
  • Principle 4. Safeguard integrity in financial reporting
  • Principle 5. Make timely and balanced disclosure
  • Principle 6. Respect the rights of shareholders
  • Principle 7. Recognise and manage risk
  • Principle 8. Remunerate fairly and responsibly

West Peak Iron Limited's corporate governance practices were in place throughout the year ended 30 June 2013.

LAY SOLID FOUNDATIONS FOR MANAGEMENT AND OVERSIGHT

Role and Responsibilities of the Board

The principal responsibilities or functions of the Board are as follows:

  • appointment of the Chief Executive Officer and other senior executives and the determination of their terms and conditions including remuneration and termination;
  • driving the strategic direction of the Group, ensuring appropriate resources are available to meet objectives and monitoring management's performance;
  • reviewing and ratifying systems of risk management and internal compliance and control, codes of conduct and legal compliance;
  • approving and monitoring the progress of major capital expenditure, capital management and significant acquisitions and divestitures;
  • approving and monitoring the budget and the adequacy and integrity of financial and other reporting; and
  • ensuring a high standard of corporate governance practice and regulatory compliance and promoting ethical and responsible decision making.

STRUCTURE THE BOARD TO ADD VALUE

The skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of director held by each director in office at the date of the annual report is included in the Directors' Report. Directors of West Peak Iron Limited are considered to be independent when they are independent of management and free from any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with – or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with – the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgment.

In the context of director independence, 'materiality' is considered from both the Group and individual director perspective. The determination of materiality requires consideration of both quantitative and qualitative elements. An item is presumed to be quantitatively immaterial if it is equal to or less than 5% of the appropriate base amount. It is presumed to be material (unless there is qualitative evidence to the contrary) if it is equal to or greater than 10% of the appropriate base amount. Qualitative factors considered include whether a relationship is strategically important, the competitive landscape, the nature of the relationship and the contractual or other arrangements governing it and other factors that point to the actual ability of the director in question to shape the direction of the Group's loyalty.

It has been determined by the Directors that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of any other new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Group's business and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted:

The Directors have also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the year ended 30 June 2013. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Group's business and, therefore, no change necessary to Group accounting policies.

(c) Statement of compliance

The financial report was authorised for issue on 23 September 2013.

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

(d) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of West Peak Iron Limited ('Company', 'Group' or 'Parent Entity') as at 30 June 2013 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. West Peak Iron Limited and its subsidiaries are referred to in this financial report as the Group or the Consolidated Entity.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Parent Entity, using consistent accounting policies.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(d) Basis of Consolidation (continued)

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Control exists where the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing when the Group controls another entity.

Unrealised gains or transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interests in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

When the Group ceases to have control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint controlled entity or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

(e) Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Exploration expenditure carried forward:

The Group capitalised expenditure relating to exploration and evaluation where it is considered likely to be recoverable or where the activities have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of existence of reserves. While there are certain areas of interest from which no reserves have been extracted, the directors are of the continued belief that such expenditure should not be written off since feasibility studies in such areas have not yet concluded.

Share-based payment transactions:

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the services provided. Where the services provided cannot be reliability estimated fair value is measure by reference to the fair value of by the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using a Black and Scholes model.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(f) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Interest income

Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial asset.

(g) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

(h) Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within periods ranging from 15 days to 30 days.

Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by the Group in making this determination include known significant financial difficulties of the debtor, review of financial information and significant delinquency in making contractual payments to the Group.

The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.

(i) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities

Financial assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:

  • the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;
  • the Group retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement; or
  • the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either:

(a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
(b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(i) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities (continued)

When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Group's continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration received that the Group could be required to repay.

When continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on the transferred asset, the extent of the Group's continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that the Group may repurchase, except that in the case of a written put option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on an asset measured at fair value, the extent of the Group's continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price.

(ii) Financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.

(j) Foreign currency translation

Both the functional and presentation currency of West Peak Iron Limited is Australian dollars. The functional currency is US dollars and presentation currency is Australian dollars for West Peak Iron Limited (Liberia). Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying 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 balance date. All exchange differences in the consolidated financial report are taken to profit or loss.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction.

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

(k) Income tax

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date.

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:

  • when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

West Peak Iron Limited

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(k) Income tax (continued)

  • when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

  • when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
  • when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date.

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

(l) Other taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:

  • when the 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 as applicable; and
  • receivables and payables, which 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 statement of cash flows 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(m) Impairment of assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In 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. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease).

An assessment is also made at each balance date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset's revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

(n) Trade and other payables

Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised costs and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.

(o) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate assets but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(p) Share-based payment transactions

The Group provides benefits to employees (including senior executives) of the Group in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions).

The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.

In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of West Peak Iron Limited (market conditions) if applicable.

The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each balance date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the Group's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The statement of comprehensive income charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon a market condition.

If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.

If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

Cash settled transactions:

The Group also provides benefits to employees in the form of cash-settled share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for cash, the amounts of which are determined by reference to movements in the price of the shares of West Peak Iron Limited.

The cost of cash-settled transactions is measured initially at fair value at the grant date using the Black-Scholes formula taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. This fair value is expensed over the period until vesting with recognition of a corresponding liability. The liability is re-measured to fair value at each balance date up to and including the settlement date with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

(q) Issued capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

(r) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.


West Peak Iron Limited

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(r) Earnings per share (continued)

Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:

  • costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends;
  • the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
  • other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

(s) Exploration and evaluation

Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where 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 initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore, studies, exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of depreciation and amortised of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities. General and administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where they are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest.

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.

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.

(t) 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 of West Peak Iron Limited.

(u) Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and discontinued operations

Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as deferred tax assets, assets arising from employee benefits, financial assets and investment property that are carried at fair value and contractual rights under insurance contracts, which are specifically exempt from this requirement.

An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write-down of the asset (or disposal group) to fair value less costs to sell. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of an asset (or disposal group), but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. A gain or loss not previously recognised by the date of the sale of the non-current asset (or disposal group) is recognised at the date of derecognition.

Non-current assets (including those that are part of a disposal group) are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale continue to be recognised.

Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of the disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately from the other assets in the statement of financial position. The liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately from other liabilities in the statement of financial position.

(v) Going Concern

The financial report has been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes the commercial realisation of the future potential of the Group's assets and the discharge of its liabilities in the normal course of business.

For the financial year ended 30 June 2013, the Group incurred a loss of $2,618,424 and a net cash outflow of $834,028 from operations as disclosed in the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows, respectively.

As at 30 June 2013, the Group had $982,224 in net working capital and $1,100,901 in cash and cash equivalents. The Directors consider that the Group is a going concern and current cash flow forecasts indicate that the Group will have sufficient funding to ensure that it can continue to fund its operations during the twelve month period from the date of approval of this financial report.

NOTE 6: SEGMENT REPORTING

Identification of reportable segments

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the investment decisions of the board and used by executive management (the chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.

The operating segments are identified by management based on the nature of its interests and projects. Discrete financial information about each of these projects is reported to the executive management team regularly.

Location of interests and nature of projects

Western Australia

West Peak has built up a land holding in the emerging Mid-West and Yilgarn iron provinces of Western Australia where major iron projects are currently being commissioned and the required infrastructure is being built. West Peak holds an exploration portfolio of 10 tenements that consists of 10 granted licences which are prospective for a range of commodities.

Liberia

Liberia is located in West Africa where it borders Guinea, Sierra Leone and Côte d'Ivoire. West Peak has been granted two iron ore exploration licences and two reconnaissance licences, which are currently in the process of being converted to exploration licences, for a total area of 972 km2 in the Grand Bassa, Bomi, Bong and River Cess counties. All licences contain iron-bearing formations and are strategically located close to port, rail and road infrastructure, both existing and currently being upgraded to meet iron ore industry requirements.

Accounting policies and inter-segment transactions

The accounting policies used by the Group in reporting segments internally are the same as those contained in Note 1 to the accounts and in the prior period.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

NOTE 14: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value because of their short-term maturity.

Financial risk management objectives and policies:

The Group has exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:

  • Credit risk
  • Liquidity risk
  • Interest rate risk
  • Market risk
  • Capital risk

This note presents information about the Group's exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital. The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

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 trade debtors and creditors which arise directly from its operations. For the year under review, it has been the Group's policy not to trade in financial instruments.

(a) Credit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter-party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group only transacts with entities that are rated the equivalent of investment grade and above. An example is that the Group only dealt with the NAB for Term Deposits during the year. This information is supplied by independent rating agencies where available and, if not available, the Group uses publicly available financial information and its own trading record to rate its major customers and suppliers.

The Group's exposure and the credit ratings of its counter-parties are continuously monitored. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the Board annually.

The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to the NAB. The credit risk on liquid funds and Term Deposits is reduced because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowance for losses, represents the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of any collateral obtained.

(b) Liquidity risk management

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group's short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and banking facilities and by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Group did not have any undrawn facilities at its disposal as at balance date.

(c) Interest rate risk management

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as the Group deposits the bulk of the Group's cash reserves in Short Term Deposits with the NAB or other acceptable Australian Banking entities. The risk is managed by the Group by maintaining an appropriate mix between short term deposits and at call deposits. The Group's exposure to interest rate on financial assets is detailed in the interest rate risk sensitivity analysis section of this note.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

NOTE 14: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

Interest rate risk sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analyses have been determined based on the Group's cash and cash equivalent exposure to interest rates. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk. The Group's sensitivity to interest rates may decrease during the current period depending on the use of the cash reserves of the Group.

The effect on loss and equity as a result of change in the interest rate, with all other variables remaining constant would be immaterial.

(d) Foreign currency sensitivity analysis

The Group is exposed to US Dollar (USD) currency fluctuations.

The following table details the Group's sensitivity to a 10% increase and decrease in the Australian dollar against the relevant foreign currencies. 10% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management's assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. The sensitivity analysis includes external loans as well as loans to foreign operations within the Group where the denomination of the loan is in a currency other than the currency of the lender or the borrower. A positive number indicates an increase in profit or loss and other equity where the Australian Dollar strengthens against the respective currency. For a weakening of the Australian Dollar against the respective currency there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit and other equity and the balances below would be negative.

Consolidated USD Impact
2013 2012
$ $
Profit or loss (i) 3,572 2,131

(i) This is mainly attributable to the exposure outstanding on USD receivables and payables at year end in the Group

The Group's sensitivity to foreign currency during the period has increased due to the fluctuations in the foreign currency market and the increased transactional activity of the Group.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2013

NOTE 14: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

(e) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The Group is exposed to movements in market interest rates on short term deposits. The Group does not have short or long term debt, and therefore the risk is minimal. The Group limits its exposure to credit risk by only investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that have acceptable credit ratings.

The Group may be exposed to currency risk on international investments and purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the respective currencies of the Group. As the Group has international projects it is exposed to currency risk. There has been no change to the Group's exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the risk from the previous period.

(f) Capital Risk Management

The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Due to the nature of the Group's activities, being mineral exploration, it does not have ready access to credit facilities and therefore is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements, with the primary source of Group funding being equity raisings. Accordingly, the objective of the Group's capital risk management is to balance the current working capital position against the requirements to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. This is achieved by maintaining appropriate liquidity to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the members of West Peak Iron Limited

Report on the Financial Report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of West Peak Iron Limited ("the company"), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2013, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors' declaration for the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity comprises the company and the entities it controlled at the year's end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors' responsibility 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 is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In Note 1(c), the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor's responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the company's preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

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

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

Independence

In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
