Directors’ Report

Review of Operations

1. West Yilgarn Projects

2022 saw Enegex continue to actively evaluate and refine its landholdings in the West Yilgarn (Figure 1) as it pursued its goal to discover new Ni-Cu-PGE and/or Cu-Au mineralised systems in this emerging mineral province.

The potential of the West Yilgarn to deliver large-scale economic discoveries has come into sharp focus in recent years and is highlighted by the highly significant Gonneville Ni-Cu-PGE discovery by Chalice Mining Ltd, hosted within a mafic-ultramafic intrusion, and the delineation of 2.84Mt of contained copper at the Caravel Copper Project (Caravel Minerals Ltd) in an area historically interpreted to be underlain by non-prospective granitic geology. The multi-million-ounce Boddington copper-gold mine (Newmont Ltd), and the Greenbushes Lithium Operations (Albemarle, IGO, Tianqi) demonstrate that discoveries in the province can progress through feasibility studies and develop into highly lucrative mining operations.

Directors’ Report

Enegex’s landholdings in the area were assembled through opportunistic ground acquisition, focussing on unexplored aeromagnetic and gravity features and regional structural corridors, and are well placed in amongst active explorers (Figure 2).

Directors’ Report

An agreement executed in March 2023 for the sale of tenement E70/5442 (part of Walebing Project) to Caravel Minerals Ltd allowed access to an extensive proprietary (‘Dominion’) roadside surface sampling dataset that stretches across Enegex’s West Yilgarn project areas (see ASX: ENX release 3rd March 2023 ). This 3500-point dataset continues to be evaluated, with selected copper and gold targets to be followed up over the second half of 2023.

Geology is limited to broad-scale government mapping that has interpreted belts of metamorphic sedimentary, greenstone and gneiss between larger granite plutons (Figure 1) but the accuracy of interpretation is limited by widespread soil and laterite gravel cover, particularly in the northern Enegex tenure.

Potential target areas across Enegex’s tenure are assessed and prioritised according to geological criteria, reconnaissance geochemical sampling results, and accessibility.

A first step is to seek access to potential target areas through liaison with freehold landowners, an essential process that may at times be time consuming. Energex is very pleased that its geological staff have gained reconnaissance access to key parts of its mineral tenure and will continue to work closely with landowners to minimise its impact and work around farming schedules. Once access is obtained the Company aims to define and quickly evaluate quality targets using low-impact surface sampling techniques, particularly where prior geochemical coverage is wide spaced or absent. Any areas of significant gold or basemetal anomalism can then be progressed to ground geophysical surveys and first-pass drilling.

Enegex’s West Yilgarn tenements are divided into five project areas: Miamoon , Miling , Walebing , Goomalling and Green Hills (Figure 2), comprising 14 granted exploration licences totalling over 3000km[2] .

During the year reconnaissance mapping and sampling was carried out over specific, accessible targets at each of the project areas. Whilst no materially anomalous assay results were received from the 2022 work programs, the work remains at an early stage and elevated copper and gold geochemistry is evident at the Gladius target in the Goomalling Project, and new targets continue to emerge.

Miamoon Project

Miamoon is a large landholding that straddles two major corridors of potential, a western continuation of the geological package interpreted to host the Gonneville series of mafic and ultramafic intrusions, and an eastern structural suture considered an important controlling feature with respect to copper and gold mineralisation at Caravel and elsewhere. The central area of the tenement block covers several late-stage magnetic granitoid intrusions that are flanked in places by discrete aeromagnetic anomalies. Selective tenement reductions and relinquishments were made over the year.

The western Miamoon tenure remains a key target area and contains several unexplored coincident magnetic and gravity bodies that are prospective for Ni-Cu-PGE styles (Figure 3). Landowner access continued to be negotiated over the ‘Spitfire’ and ‘Crusader’ aeromagnetic features that were defined and enhanced via an Airborne Falcon Gravity Gradiometer (AGG) survey conducted late 2021. These features remain priority drill targets.

4

Directors’ Report

A first pass soil sampling program consisting of 123 samples was completed over geophysical targets 29 and 30 that are located in the far southwest of the Miamoon project, with low levels of platinum anomalism returned.

Directors’ Report

The Company successfully obtained access to freehold land along the eastern side of the Miamoon Project during the year, carried out several reconnaissance mapping and rock sampling programs, and plans to expand geochemical coverage in coming months along a major structural zone that is interpreted to trend in a north westerly direction through the area (Figure 3). This structural zone is seen as a potential continuation of structures related to the Caravel Minerals’ copper deposits, and therefore prospective for structural and porphyry style Cu-Au mineralisation.

Aeromagnetic interpretation over the central Miamoon tenure has highlighted zones of patchy anomalously high magnetic responses along the margins of granite bodies that may also have potential for copper-gold mineralisation styles. These zones will receive reconnaissance sampling as access negotiation progresses.

Miling Project

Activity over 2022 focussed on reconnaissance and landholder negotiations along the western margin of the Miling project where tenure abuts Todd River Resources tenure and Ni-Cu-PGE anomalism. Several occurrences of mafic and ultramafic rocks were observed on Enegex tenure that are considered to be potential host rocks.

The Company made good progress establishing access to freehold land within E70/5444 in the eastern part of the Miling Project. The tenement contains a major east verging flexure indicated in magnetic imagery (Figure 3). The flexure and associated structural corridor are considered prospective for gold or Cu-Au mineralisation and past geochemical coverage is too wide-spaced to be considered effective.

Selective tenement reductions will be made, subject to ongoing exploration results.

Walebing

The Walebing Project comprises several exploration licences in the early stages of exploration located to the north and west of the Caravel Copper Project (Figure 4) and flanking the Wongan Hills greenstone belt. Landowner access negotiations continued over the most prospective far eastern margin of the Project where tenements cover extensions of the Wongan Hill greenstone belt.

Reconnaissance geological mapping and selected rock sampling was carried out in the north-west part of E70/5439 around a series of east-west trending quartz veins. No materially anomalous results were obtained, and no follow up work is planned at this prospect.

An agreement executed in March 2023 for the sale of tenement E70/5442 to Caravel Minerals Ltd allowed access to the 3500-point Dominion roadside surface sampling dataset that stretches across Enegex’s West Yilgarn project areas. This dataset provided an important increase in the Company’s geochemical coverage at Walebing and generated several follow-up targets.

Goomalling

Exploration during the year focussed on the north-east of the Project area, where magnetic and gravity responses sit approximately 10km south-east of Caravel Minerals’ Opie Copper resource (refer to https://caravelminerals.com.au) and broadly on-trend.

Directors’ Report

Figure 4 . Goomalling and Walebing tenure and exploration targets on gravity imagery and structural interpretation.

A total of 176 soil samples were collected at the Gladius Prospect along with supporting rock-chip sampling, where water bore drill cuttings in gneiss were observed to contain minor disseminated sulphides (Figure 5). Mapped geology is dominated by gneiss and local exposures of meta sediments, including banded iron formation, and late gabbro dykes (Figure 5).

7

Directors’ Report

Prospectivity in the area is enhanced by a late-stage granite plug and through-going north trending structures. Exploration in this area will continue as cropping allows.

==> picture [453 x 314] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 5. Gladius tenure and exploration targets on aeromagnetic imagery.

Green Hills

The Green Hills tenement group covers a belt of metamorphic sedimentary rocks, associated gneiss, and granitoid intrusions that is relatively well-exposed compared to the northern Energex tenure. Several campaigns of field mapping and sampling were completed over the year including 73 soil samples and a rock-chip program at the Edwards Crossing gold prospect. Exploration confirmed that the areas tested have limited exploration potential and no further work will be completed at those locations.

It is likely that parts of the Green Hills tenure will be rationalised in coming months to allow focus on the Company’s higher priority areas.

Directors’ Report

2. Hart Project, North Kimberley

During September 2022 the Company completed an initial field campaign at the Hart Project, a greenfield tenement holding acquired to search for intrusive hosted vanadium-titanium-magnetite mineralisation. Exploration activities completed included ground validation of desktop targets, rock chip sampling, traverse mapping, magnetic susceptibility data collection and pXRF data on collected rocks across the main target areas.

The traverse mapping results highlighted a strongly magnetic gabbroic sill with highly anomalous magnetic susceptibility values (up to 92 x 10-3 SI). This magnetic gabbroic sill is interpreted to be the same prospective horizon that hosts the Speewah V-Ti-Fe resource.

A total of 214 samples were assayed, returning results to 0.37% V2O5 and 2.14% Ti.

Following the modest exploration results, and the cost of seasonal exploration in the Kimberley, Enegex surrendered tenement E80/5354 and withdrew its application for tenement E80/5355 to conclude its exploration activities in the region. The move allows Enegex to focus its resources on its existing West Yilgarn Projects, and to pursue new opportunities.

The Company has indemnified, to the extent permitted by law, the Directors and officers of the Company against any liability incurred by a Director or officer in or arising out of the conduct of the business of the Company or in or arising out of the discharge of that officer’s duties. No amount was paid pursuant to these indemnities during the financial year, nor to the date of this report.

Environment, Health and Safety

The company has adopted an environmental, health and safety policy and conducts its operations in accordance with industry best practice.

There were no known contraventions of any relevant environmental regulations by the company, its subsidiary or by the operator of any of the permits in which an interest is held.

The company believes all injuries are avoidable and has policies and procedures to ensure employees and contractors manage safety accordingly. The company monitors and evaluates its procedures. During the year there were no known contraventions of health and safety by the company or reported health and safety incidents.

Operating and Financial Risk

The Group faces and manages the following material business risks that could influence the Group’s future prospects:

Operational risks

The Company may be affected by various operational factors. In the event that any of these potential risks eventuate, the Company’s operational and financial performance may be adversely affected. No assurances can be given that the Company will achieve commercial viability through the successful exploration and/or mining of its tenement interests. Until the Company is able to realise value from its projects, it is likely to incur ongoing operating losses.

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including failure to locate or identify mineral deposits, failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining, insufficient or unreliable infrastructure such as power, water and transport, difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

The Company’s tenements are at various stages of exploration, and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are speculative and high-risk undertakings that may be impeded by circumstances and factors beyond the control of the Company.

There can be no assurance that exploration of the Tenements, or any other exploration properties that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic mineral resource. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

19

Directors’ Report

There is no assurance that exploration or project studies by the Company will result in the definition of an economically viable mineral. In the event the Company successfully delineates economic deposits on any Tenement, it will need to apply for a mining lease to undertake development and mining on the relevant Tenement. There is no guarantee that the Company will be granted a mining lease if one is applied for and if a mining lease is granted, it will also be subject to conditions which must be met.

Further capital requirements

The Company’s projects may require additional funding in order to progress activities. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed to further exploration or possible development activities and operations or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favourable to the Company.

Native title and Aboriginal Heritage

There are areas of the Company’s projects over which legitimate common law and/or statutory Native Title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. Where Native Title rights do exist, the Company must obtain consent of the relevant landowner to progress the exploration, development and mining phases of operations. Where there is an Aboriginal Site for the purposes of the Aboriginal Heritage legislation, the Company must obtain consents in accordance with the legislation.

The Company’s activities are subject to Government regulations and approvals

The Company is subject to certain Government regulations and approvals. Any material adverse change in government policies or legislation in Western Australian and Australia that affect mining, processing, development and mineral exploration activities, export activities, income tax laws, royalty regulations, government subsidiaries and environmental issues may affect the viability and profitability of any planned exploration or possible development of the Company’s portfolio of projects.

Global conditions

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities. General economic conditions, laws relating to taxation, new legislation, trade barriers, movements in interest and inflation rates, currency exchange controls and rates, national and international political circumstances (including outbreaks in international hostilities, wars, terrorist acts, sabotage, subversive activities, security operations, labour unrest, civil disorder, and states of emergency), natural disasters (including fires, earthquakes and floods), and quarantine restrictions, epidemics and pandemics, may have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations and financial performance, including the Company’s exploration, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

General economic conditions may also affect the value of the Company and its market valuation regardless of its actual performance.

Events Since Balance Date

There has been no significant after balance date event up to the date of signing this report.

Proceedings On Behalf Of the Company

There are no proceedings on behalf of the company.

Directors’ Report

Notes to the Financial Statements 30 June 2023

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies

Enegex Limited (“Enegex” or “the company” or “the group”) is a for-profit company incorporated and domiciled in Australia with its registered office and principal place of business located Unit 24, 589 Stirling Highway, Cottesloe WA 6011. The consolidated financial report of the company for the year ended 30 June 2023 comprises the company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “consolidated entity” or “the group”) and the consolidated entity’s interest in joint operations. Financial information for Enegex Limited as an individual entity is included in Note 21. The financial report was authorised by the directors for issue on 20 September 2023. The principal activity of the company during the year was natural resources exploration, evaluation and investment.

(a) Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, including the Accounting Interpretations, issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) and the Corporations Act 2001 . The financial report of the company complies with International Financial Reporting Standards and interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board.

(b) Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial report is presented in Australian dollars which is the company’s functional currency and is prepared on the accrual and historical cost basis. The preparation of a financial report in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

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

Judgements made by management in the application of Australian Accounting Standards that have a significant effect on the financial report and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in note 1(m).

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the commercial realisation of the Company’s assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

For the year ended 30 June 2023 the Group incurred a net cash outflow from operating and investing activities of $1,114,472 (2022: $1,707,296) and a net loss after tax of $1,528,429 (2022: $640,096). As at 30 June 2023, the Group has positive working capital of $2,507,425 (2022: $556,091).

27

Directors’ Report

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Based on cashflow forecasts prepared for existing commitments, Directors expect that the Group will continue as a going concern for at least 12 months from the signing of annual financial report.

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the financial report.

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any material impact on the financial performance or position of the Consolidated Entity.

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

(c) Exploration and evaluation expenditure

Exploration and evaluation assets, including the costs of acquiring permits or licences, are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets on an area of interest basis. Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current and either:

• i. the expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale or partial sale: or

• ii. 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.

The tests contained in AASB6.20 are applied to determine whether exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment indicators:

• 1) the exploration and evaluation tenure right has expired or are expected to expire in the near future and is not expected to be renewed.

• 2) substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor planned.

• 3) exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral resources and the entity has decided to discontinue such activities in the specific area.

• 4) sufficient data exist to indicate that, although a development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale.

Proceeds from the sale of exploration permits or recoupment of exploration costs from farmin arrangements are credited against exploration costs previously capitalised. Any excess of the proceeds overs costs recouped are accounted for as a gain on disposal.

28

Directors’ Report

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs necessitated by exploration and evaluation activities are provided for as part of the cost of those activities. Costs are estimated on the basis of current legal requirements, anticipated technology and future costs that have been discounted to their present value. Estimates of future costs are reassessed at each reporting date.

( d) Trade and other receivables and contract assets

The company makes uses of a simplified approach in accounting for trade and other receivables as well as contract assets and records the loss allowance as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. In calculating, the company uses its historical experience, external indicators and forward-looking information to calculate the expected credit losses using a provision matrix.

(e) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and at call bank deposits. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows.

(f) Impairment of assets

The carrying amounts of the company’s assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there are indicators of impairment. Where impairment indicators exist, recoverable amount is determined, and impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss where the asset's carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purpose of assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

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

(g) Share capital

Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the company. Transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the consideration received, net of any related income tax benefit.

(h) Provisions

A provision is recognised in the statement of financial position when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

(i) Trade and other payables

Trade, accruals and other payables are recorded initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost. Trade payables are non-interest bearing and are normally settled on 60-day terms.

29

Directors’ Report

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(j) Interest revenue

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

(k) Income tax

Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is provided using the statement of financial position liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

The initial recognition of assets or liabilities that do not affect accounting nor taxable profit is not provided for in determining deferred tax amounts. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date. A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be applied. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

The Company recognises deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses of the company to the extent that is probable that future taxable profits of the company will be available against which the asset can be utilised.

(l) Goods and services tax

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 taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO 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.

(m) Accounting estimates and judgements

Management determines the development, selection and disclosure of the company’s critical accounting policies and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates. Other than as disclosed in these notes there are no estimates and judgements that are considered to have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

30

Directors’ Report

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Management has determined that realisation of the estimated deferred tax asset arising from tax losses and temporary differences is not probable and has not brought to account the asset at balance date (Note 3).

Per Note 1(c) and 1(f) management exercise judgement as to the whether exploration expenditure is assessed for impairment. Any judgement 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 exploitation, then the relevant capitalised amount will be written off through profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

( n) Fair value

Fair values may be used for financial asset and liability measurement as well as for sundry disclosures. Fair values for financial instruments traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices at statement of financial position date. The quoted market price for financial assets is the current bid price and the quoted market price.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market are determined using valuation techniques. Assumptions used are based on observable market prices and rates at balance date. Estimated discounted cash flows are used to determine fair value of the remaining financial instruments.

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

(o) Foreign Currency Translation

The functional and presentation currency of the company is Australian dollars (A$).

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

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

Diluted earnings per share

Earnings used to calculate diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the basic earnings by the after-tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares. The weighted average number of shares used is adjusted for the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.

31

Directors’ Report

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(q) Share-based payment transactions

Equity settled transactions

The fair value of options granted are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the grantee become unconditionally entitled to the options.

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using an option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

The fair value of the options granted is adjusted to reflect market vesting conditions but excludes the impact of any non-market vesting conditions (for example, profitability and sales growth targets). Nonmarket vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. At each reporting date, the entity revises its estimate of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. The expense recognised each period takes into account the most recent estimate. The impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

The carrying amount of all receivables is equal to their fair value as they are short term. None of the receivables have a loss allowance as there aren’t any expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows. The maximum credit risk for the company is the gross value of all receivables. All receivables are noninterest bearing.

Note 17 - Financial Instruments

Purchases and sales of financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on trade date; the date on which the company commits to purchase or sell the financial assets or financial liabilities. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

41

Directors’ Report

Notes to the Financial Statements 30 June 2023

Exposure to credit, interest rate, liquidity and currency risks arises in the normal course of the company’s business. The company’s overall risk management approach is to identify the risks and implement safeguards which seek to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the company.

Fair value

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.

AASB 13 ‘ Fair Value Measurement’ requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the fair value hierarchy, as follows:

• Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

• Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)

• Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)

The consolidated entity’s financial assets measured and recognised at fair value at 30 June 2023 and 30 June 2022 on a recurring basis are as follows:

	Level	1	Level 2	Level 3	Total
	$		$	$	$
30 June 2023
Assets
Listed securities		-	-	-	-
30 June 2022
Assets
Listed securities	11,071		-	-	11,071

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. At balance date there were no significant concentrations of credit risk for the company. The maximum exposure to credit risk of financial assets is represented by the carrying amounts of each financial asset in the statement of financial position.

Interest rate risk

All financial liabilities and financial assets at floating rates expose the company to cash flow interest rate risk. The company has no exposure to interest rate risk at balance date, other than in relation to cash and cash equivalents which attract a floating interest rate. Details of cash and cash deposits can be found in Note 4. At balance date a 1% (100 basis point) increase/ decrease in the interest rate would improve / worsen the company’s post tax profit by $16,419 (2022: $4,945).

42

Directors’ Report

Notes to the Financial Statements 30 June 2023

Note 17 - Financial Instruments (Continued)

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is monitored to ensure sufficient monies are available to meet contractual obligations as and when they fall due. All financial assets and liabilities have a maturity date of less than 12 months.

Foreign currency risk

The consolidated entity is exposed to foreign currency risk arising from purchases of goods and services that are denominated in a currency other than the Australian dollar functional currency. Data processing by overseas suppliers are usually denominated in US dollars. To this extent, the consolidated entity is exposed to exchange rate fluctuations between the Australian and US dollar. At 30 June 2023 the consolidated entity has no foreign currency exposure (2022: $nil).

Capital Management

When managing capital, directors’ objective is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

It is the company’s plan that capital will be raised by any one or a combination of the following manners: placement of shares to excluded offerees, pro-rata issue to shareholders, the exercise of outstanding options, and/or a further issue of shares. Should these methods not be considered to be viable, or in the best interests of shareholders, then it would be the company’s intention to meet its exploration obligations by either partial sale of its interests or farmout, the latter course of action being part of its overall strategy.

The company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

Note 18 - Segment Information

The company has adopted AASB 8 Operating Segments whereby segment information is presented using a 'management approach', i.e., segment information is provided on the same basis as information used for internal reporting purposes by the board of directors.

At regular intervals the board is provided management information at a company level for the company’s cash position, the carrying values of exploration permits and a company cash forecast for the next twelve months of operation.

On this basis, no segment information is included in these financial statements. All interest received has been derived in Australia. All exploration permits and activity is in Australia.

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

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

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

Responsibilities of the Directors for the financial report

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

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

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report

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

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1_2020.pdf.This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Corporate Governance Statement dated 20 September 2023

Board and Committee Charters:

• Board Charter

• Audit Committee Charter

• Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter

The Corporate Governance Statement discloses the extent to which the Company follows the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council in its publication Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations – 4th Edition ( Recommendations ). The Recommendations are not mandatory, however the Recommendations that will not be followed have been identified and reasons provided for not following them along with what (if any) alternative governance practices the Company intends to adopt in lieu of the recommendation.

Due to the current size and nature of the existing Board and the magnitude of the Company’s operations, the Board does not consider that the Company will gain any benefit from individual Board committees and that its resources would be better utilised in other areas as the Board is of the strong view that at this stage the experience and skill set of the current Board is sufficient to perform these roles. Under the Company’s Board Charter, the duties that would ordinarily be assigned to individual committees are currently carried out by the full Board under the written terms of reference for those committees.
