2021 Annual Report
Chairman’s Letter
==> picture [596 x 212] intentionally omitted <==
Dear Fellow Enterprise Metals Ltd (the “Company” or “Enterprise) Shareholder Thank you for your ongoing support.
It has been an exciting year. Your Company continues to be free-carried across three sizeable exploration projects in Western Australia managed by our joint venture partners prospective for gold, copper and nickel sulphide mineralisation respectively.
Evolution Mining (ASX: EVN) has commenced drill-testing of structures prospective for gold at the Murchison gold project, Sandfire Resources NL (ASX: SFR) continues to drill-test stratigraphy with the potential to host highgrade copper mineralisation at the Doolgunna project and Constellation Resources Ltd (ASX: CR1) has identified shallow nickel mineralisation in geochemical drilling, indicative of the nickel-copper sulphide potential at the Fraser Range project. Each joint venture partner continued the search for economic discoveries during 2020-2021 at no cost to Enterprise shareholders, thanks to our freecarried joint venture interests in each of these projects.
In addition, your Company has advanced exploration activities during the year in its own right both in the Southern Cross Region around the historical Bullfinch gold mine and within the Kalgoorlie-Kambalda region of the Eastern Goldfields, notably in the Mandilla area near Widgiemooltha, adjacent to the emerging discovery of gold held by Anglo Australian Resources NL (ASX:AAR).
Your company also has a wholly-owned sulphate of potash project in in Western Australia at Perenjori, where geophysics indicates a significant drainage system prospective for potash.
As a shareholder in Enterprise, I very much look forward to the year ahead, and to outcomes from the planned drilling both by your Company and by our joint venture partners. Exploration success at any one of our projects has the clear potential to achieve a positive re-rating of the company’s value.
I sincerely thank you all for your support of the company through 2020-2021. Finally, I would like to thank fellow board members, company secretary, joint venture partners and the professionals who have assisted the Company with exploration and administrative tasks of maintaining a public company.
Yours sincerely,

Review of Operations
All projects of Enterprise Metal Limited (“Enterprise” or the “Company”) and its controlled entities (the “Group”) are in Western Australia. At 30 June 2021 Enterprise had three major projects, Murchison (gold/copper/zinc), Doolgunna (copper/zinc/gold) and Fraser Range (nickel/copper), all fully funded by joint venture partners. In addition, the Company had option agreements over a number of gold projects in the Yilgarn Region, and one wholly owned potash exploration project in the Perenjori district. (Figure 1.)
FRASER RANGE PROJECT: Ni (Cu-Co) ENT 30% free carried to BFS (CR1 70% managing & funding)
The Fraser Range Project is located within the AlbanyFraser Orogen approximately 100km east of Norseman and covers in excess of 500km² in a prospective portion of the Fraser Range. Constellation Resources Ltd (ASX: CR1) holds a 70% interest and manages and wholly funds exploration on the three granted Orpheus Joint Venture tenements (E28/2403, E63/1281 and E63/1282) and one mineral exploration licence application (E63/1695). Enterprise holds a 30% free carried interest to completion of a bankable feasibility stage (BFS) on any discovery.

2021 Annual Report 3
Review of Operations
In the Fraser Range, certain Proterozoic mafic/ ultramafic intrusion suites are prospective to host nickelcopper sulphide mineralisation. The region is currently experiencing high levels of exploration activity for nickel following the Nova, Silver Knight, Mawson and Lantern nickel discoveries.
The northern most Exploration Licence 28/2403 of the joint venture lies approximately 25km SSW of Legend Mining Ltd’s (ASX: LEG) Mawson nickel sulphide discovery, first reported in December 2019. (Figure 2).
Highlights during and subsequent to the end of the 2021 financial year include:
- Air-Core (“AC”) drilling results have defined a highly prospective Ni-Cu-Co-PGE (Nickel-Copper-Platinum Group Element) geochemical target that is interpreted to be over three kilometres in strike and up to 300 metres wide – named the “Eyre Anomaly”. There is strong evidence for the occurrence of magmatic nickel sulphides as being the source of the Eyre Anomaly which supports the prospectivity of the other established Ni-Cu-Co-PGE anomalies as a pathfinder to nickel sulphides in the basement intrusive.

Figure 3. E28/2403 AC drill results incl. Eyre Anomaly, Geochemical footprints and Moving Loop Transient ElectroMagnetic (MLTEM) Anomaly over Aeromagnetic Image
The Northern Eyre Anomaly infill drilling was completed to 50 metre centres. Well-developed regolith profiles were formed over the basement units. The pending assay results from the July 2021 AC drilling program will guide the next steps in the area. (Figure 3)
Eyre South Prospect (Southern limit of the Eyre Trend)
Results from infill AC holes have confirmed a number of positive attributes underpinning target prospectivity including:
-
Presence of nickel-copper sulphides: Optical petrological analysis from bottom of hole AC chips sourced within the “feeder zone”, have confirmed the presence of trace levels of magmatic nickel-copper sulphides in multiple holes, underpinning the concepts fertility (Figures 2 and 3, Table 2).
-
A coherent blanket of anomalous assays: A continuous, thick nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE (“Ni-CuCo-PGE”) regolith blanket that is currently 380 metres in strike, up to 300 metres wide and remains open at depth (Figures 1 and 2); and
-
A potential intrusive feeder-system geochemical signature: Mappable concentric zonation of high magnesium rich minerals in the basement units (increasing olivine and pyroxene content) that is located directly beneath the regolith anomaly. The zoned pattern could represent a feeder zone for the greater intrusion, a recognised favourable setting for the possible accumulation of nickel sulphides (Figures 2 and 3).
The planned diamond drill programs will provide important geological information on the feeder zone and establish platforms to undertake downhole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys.

Review of Operations
Wylie Target – Promising results from early-stage nickel-copper prospect
A broad geochemical dispersion at Wylie was initially identified in reconnaissance AC hole KAC0084 returning 4m @ 0.10% Ni, 0.05% Cu, 0.03% Co, 7ppb (Pt+Pd) . Recent infill and extensional AC holes have successfully expanded the footprint of the Wylie Target (Figure 3). Key results include:
-
KAC0139: 16m @ 0.12% Ni, 0.01% Cu, 0.02% Co, 4 ppb Pt+Pd
-
• KAC0141: 4m @ 0.08% Ni, 0.08% Cu, 0.03% Co, 13 ppb Pt+Pd • KAC0192: 16m @ 0.11% Ni, 0.05% Cu, 0.01% Co, 7 ppb Pt+Pd, incl. 9m @ 0.15% Ni, 0.07% Cu, 0.02% Co, 10 ppb Pt+Pd
Constellation have reported that assay and petrology results from the Wylie target continue to display promising host rocks and pathfinder geochemistry patterns whilst acknowledging the early stage of evaluation for this emerging target area.
Constellation plans to complete diamond drill testing at the Eyre South target in the December quarter 2021 subject to rig availability and weather conditions. A DHEM geophysical survey is planned for each hole. Assay and petrology results are likely to be returned in the January quarter 2022 which once received and assessed, will govern the next work programs to progress the target.
Subsequent to the completion of the diamond drilling at the Eyre South target, further infill AC programs are planned at the Wylie and the Greater Eyre targets to achieve drill densities down to 50 metre centres.

MURCHISON PROJECT: Au (Cu-Zn) ENT 100%, EVN Farm-In (EVN have right to earn up to 80%)
Enterprise Metals Murchison Project is centred 30km north of Cue and 35km north-east of the Big Bell Gold Mine and forms a semi-contiguous landholding of approximately 760km[2] over a buried Archaean greenstone belt. The Project area is prospective for Archaean orogenic gold deposits and sits within a well-endowed region, with major gold deposits such as Big Bell (5.3 Moz production, operated by Westgold Resources Ltd) and the nearby historical Day Dawn mine (2.6 Moz production). Historic exploration has also indicated potential for volcanogenic high-grade copper/zinc deposits.
Evolution Mining Limited (ASX: EVN) entered into an earnin joint venture agreement (Murchison EJV) with Enterprise over the Project on 1 June 2019 and is focussed on exploring the untested poorly tested northward continuations of the Big Bell and Cuddingwarra Shear Zones. Evolution can earn an 80% interest in the project by spending A$6 million on exploration over a four-year period. (Figure 5).
Since commencing exploration, Evolution has undertaken an extensive and detailed ground gravity survey (6,118 stations, which, when married with Enterprise’s detailed magnetic surveys, highlighted major lithological units and shear zones. Evolution has also drilled 262 AC holes for 19,132m which targeted shear zones along strike to the north and northeast of the Big Bell Gold Mine and Cuddingwarra Mining Centre.
Evolution also completed of 17.5 line km of 50m spaced Passive Seismic surveying over the northern extension of the Big Bell Shear Zone and Southern Area of the Cuddingwarra Shear Zone to understand the depth and 3-D geometry of transported cover.
Regional mapping at 1:10,000 scale was undertaken over priority areas, and 250 rock chip and historic drill samples were taken to be analysed for gold and multi-elements. In the Behring area, thick differentiated dolerites were identified from mapping and examination of drill hole material.
During the June 2021 quarter, Evolution completed 4 RC/diamond core holes and (partial completion of a 5th hole) for a total of 1,428.7m on the Big Bell Shear Zone. These holes were following up anomalous results from AC drilling testing a structural target at the Behring Prospect. Assays are currently pending for the majority of this drilling program and are expected to be reported in October 2021.
The location of anomalous AC gold drill results on the Big Bell and Cuddingwarra Shear Zones are shown below. (Figure 6).

Review of Operations
DOOLGUNNA PROJECT: Cu-Zn (Au) ENT 100%, SFR Farm-In (SFR have right to earn 75%)
Enterprise Metals Doolgunna Project covers over 60km of strike of the southern boundary of the Bryah Basin and the northern part of the Yerrida Basin. The southern Bryah Basin contains the Karalundi Formation which hosts the DeGrussa and Monty copper-gold deposits. (Figure 7.)
Sandfire Resources NL (ASX: SFR) entered into a farm-in agreement with Enterprise Metals in October 2016 to earn a 75% interest in the project by sole funding exploration to define a JORC (2012) compliant mineral resource of at least 50,000 tonnes of contained copper or copper equivalent.
During the year, Sandfire drilled a number of deep diamond and reverse circulation holes to test Moving Loop Electromagnetic (MLEM) anomalies at the Vulcan West and Ruby Well prosects. in the Karalundi Formation of the Bryah Basin.
At the Vulcan West prospect, diamond hole EFDD0009A tested an extensive series of MLEM geophysical plates and intersected a significant zone of fractured massive siltstone with graphite on fracture faces coincident with the position of the plates. Weak potentially VMS-related chlorite alteration and trace stringer sulphide mineralisation was observed from 644m- 717m. Diamond drill hole EFDD0010 also tested a series of anomalous MLEM geophysical plates. A second deep diamond hole EFDD0012 (total 1,105.1m) tested the southern extent of a significant geophysical plate modelled from a late-time anomalous response identified in ARMITv4 MLEM data. Multiple graphite-bearing brittleductile zones were identified at 544.1m - 546.2m, 593.2m - 595.1m and 649.3m - 650m. These graphitic structures were interpreted to be the likely source of the conductive response identified in the ARMITv4 MLEM survey.
At the Ruby Well prospect, diamond drill hole EFDD0011 (total 736.9m) was designed to test a 250m x 250m geophysical plate derived from a MLEM anomaly. No significant mineralisation was observed in any of the holes.
RC hole EFRC0063 was planned to test a large magnetic anomaly but was abandoned due to excessive groundwater. The hole intersected an interval of peperitic basalts and siltstone containing fine chalcopyrite stringers and associated trace sphalerite in the DeGrussa Member of the Karalundi Formation. The magnetic, Fe-oxide rich dolerite is likely the source of magnetic anomaly. A DHEM survey was completed but no anomalies consistent with bedrock conductors were observed. RC hole EFRC0065 tested the area ~1km along-strike to the south west of EFDD0011. The hole intersected a thick package of Narracoota Formation basalts along-strike from the geophysical plate being targeted by EFDD0011, with no significant mineralisation observed. EFRC0067 and EFRC0068 were drilled to test a potential host sediment position south of a large granophyric dolerite.
==> picture [236 x 154] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 7. Location of the Enterprise’s Doolgunna Tenements (in Green)
Down Hole EM surveys confirmed that the MLEM anomalies were related to lithological units and Sandfire has indicated that no further work is currently planned for Ruby Well and Vulcan West.
Enterprise has a significant landholding position in the northern Yerrida Basin, which is considered to be stratigraphically equivalent to the adjacent Bryah Basin hosting DeGrussa, Monty and the Morck Well deposit. Sandfire has indicated that it will be undertaking earlystage exploration in the Yerrida Basin for Sedex style base metals.
Enterprise notes that DGO Gold Limited (ASX: DGO) recently reported on the progress of diamond drilling at Yerrida, 75km south of the DeGrussa mine. DGO’s maiden diamond hole (21YEDD001) tested a coincident magnetic and airborne electromagnetic (AEM) anomaly and was completed at a depth of 634.3m. The hole intersected a broad interval of stratabound bands of pyrrhotite-pyrite with disseminated chalcopyrite from 295 to 334m including a 1.8m interval of semi-massive pyrrhotite-pyrite from 302.2m.

BULLFINCH NORTH PROJECT: Au, (Ni-Cu-Co, Li) ENT Option to Purchase
In May 2020 Enterprise entered into a 2 year “Option to Purchase” phase of a Binding Terms Sheet covering the Bullfinch North Project in the Southern Cross Greenstone Belt of WA. The tenement package is owned by Nickgraph Pty Ltd. A separate 2 year option agreement was negotiated over the western margin of the greenstone belt and Lake Deborah with Mr Peter Gianni.
The project area stretches from Bullfinch in the south to Trough Well in the north and covers approximately 50 strike km’s (238 km[2] ) of granted tenements over Archaean greenstone lithologies prospective for orogenic gold deposits, high-grade massive sulphide nickel-copper deposits, iron ore and lithium. (Figure 8)
The Southern Cross Greenstone Belt hosts more than 150 known gold deposits, which have collectively produced more than 10 million ounces of gold. The major gold deposits such as Frasers at Southern Cross, Marvel Loch, Nevoria, Great Victoria, Yilgarn Star and Copperhead (at Bullfinch) have produced the majority of these ounces.
By comparison, competitor exploration on the northern part of the Southern Cross Greenstone Belt (ie. north of Bullfinch) was largely focussed on relatively shallow drill testing of small historic outcropping gold workings, which has failed to find any major new deposits. Other impediments to successful exploration included the historic fragmented tenement ownership and transported overburden on the eastern and western flanks of the belt.
In mid 2020 Enterprise commissioned Perth consulting group Terra Resources Pty Ltd to undertake:
-
a comprehensive review of existing data over the project area,
-
a compilation of relevant drilling and soil assay information into a searchable database,
-
a geological interpretation of the project area, using available detailed magnetic data and Enterprise’s 2020 detailed gravity survey, and
-
a targeting study, using the assembled data to identify targets based on models of major Yigarn gold deposits.

Figure 9. Bullfinch North, Terra Resources Targets over Bedrock Geology - North Sheet
The recently completed Terra Resources targeting study has produced ten high priority targets for follow up and drill testing. In particular, the study has highlighted a series of coincident magnetic/gravity targets within the poorly exposed and soil covered Archaean sedimentary sequence which lies unconformably over the Archaean greenstone sequences. These and other “Terra Targets” are planned for drill testing in the 2021 December Quarter. (Figures 9 and 10)

Figure 10. Bullfinch North, Terra Resources Targets over Bedrock Geology - South Sheet
In December 2020 Enterprise undertook a 3D Induced Polarisation (3D-IP) survey along the interpreted Maries Find-Greater Bingin line of gold workings. In January 2021, Terra Resources reported that the survey had delineated a subtle but coherent chargeable anomaly coincident with a resistive anomaly on the southwest corner of the survey area. Further IP data acquisition with a dipoledipole survey configuration was recommended by Terra Resources before any drill testing.
Field inspection of the high priority Terra Targets commenced in August, along with compilation of any historic exploration and drilling associated with the high priority targets. This process in ongoing and follow up reverse circulation drilling is expected to commence in October.

MANDILLA PROSPECT: Au, ENT Option to Purchase (Vera Allen 100% owned)
In 2020 Enterprise entered into an Option Agreement with Mrs Vera Allen to purchase her Mandilla Gold Prospect (Exploration Licence 15/1437 and Prospecting Licence 15/5885) located approximately 20 km south of Kambalda. Enterprise’s target is primary gold mineralisation, similar but higher grade than that already discovered on the western margin of the Mandilla Syenite by Anglo Australian Resources (“Anglo”, ASX: AAR) at its Mandilla Gold Project.
Between 2006-2007, Anglo produced ~23,000oz Au from an open cut palaeo-channel located along the western margin of the syenite. Anglo has subsequently reported a bedrock resource of 646Koz at Mandilla East & South, on the western margin of the Mandilla Syenite. (Figures 11 and 12)
In August 2020, Enterprise completed a scout program of 121 vertical AC holes (2,408m) east of the CoolgardieEsperance Highway. The holes planned west of the highway could not be drilled due to heritage issues.
The AC program on eight widely spaced east-west drill lines identified several deeply weathered northerly trending shear zones or corridors which contain anomalous amounts of gold and arsenic in saprolitc clays above bedrock. One of a number of anomalous four metre composite assays from this program included 4m at 1.8g/t Au from 44m depth in hole MEAC081. This hole also averaged 615ppm arsenic over the 60m interval from 8m depth.
In May 2021 a “slimline” RC drill program of 21 holes (total 1,808m) was completed to test a number of these low level gold anomalies, and a historical (Newmont 1984) Induced Polarisation anomaly. While RC holes testing the IP anomaly intersected pyritic volcaniclastic sediments, a number of the other holes intersected low level gold mineralisation, particularly at the Star Anomaly on the eastern margin of the strongly magnetic Mandilla Syenite.

PERENJORI POTASH PROJECT ENT 100%
In October 2019, Enterprise lodged applications for four large exploration licences over deep palaeo-valleys centred approximately 35km north-northeast of the wheatbelt town of Perenjori.
During the current financial year, two tenements were granted (total 377km[2] ) and two tenements remain in remain in application (320km[2] ). The granted tenement and tenement applications cover ~120 km of ancient (+34 million years old) drainage systems which have their headwaters in the central part of the Yilgarn Craton. Airborne geophysical surveys previously conducted by Enterprise provide evidence that deeply incised (100m - 150m depth) palaeovalleys lie buried below the broad shallow valleys NNE of Perenjori.
Enterprise plans to explore the palaeo-valleys for subsurface brine deposits using aircore drilling methods. The ultimate goal is to produce Sulphate of Potash (K2SO4 or SOP) via surface evaporation (and processing) outside of salt lakes, within PVC lined evaporation ponds. The Perenjori Project area is well serviced with a 245km railway from Perenjori to the port of Geraldton and has established infrastructure in the nearby wheatbelt towns of Morawa and Perenjori.

Principal Activities
The principal activities of the Group during the financial year were the exploration of a number of gold, copper/gold, and copper/nickel tenements in Western Australia.
Operating Results
The loss of the Group after providing for income tax amounted to $1,654,354 (2020: $826,073).
Financial Position
The net assets of the Group at 30 June 2021 are $7,700,095 (2020: $7,362,031).
Business Strategies and Prospects for Future Financial Years
The objective of the Company is to create long-term shareholder value through the discovery, development and acquisition of technically and economically viable mineral deposits. To date, the Company has not commenced production of any minerals, nor has it identified a Mineral Resource in accordance with the JORC Code. To achieve its objective, the Company and its joint venture partners currently intend over the medium term to conduct further exploration activities including field work to follow up targets identified at the Fraser Range, Murchison, Doolgunna and Bullfinch North Projects. These activities are inherently risky and the Board of Directors (the “Board”) is unable to provide certainty of the expected results of these activities, or that any or all of these likely developments will be achieved. The material business risks faced by the Company that could have an effect on the Company’s future prospects, and how the Company manages these risks include:
The Company’s and its joint venture exploration programs may not identify an economic deposit
Despite positive exploration results on a number of projects, current and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration, development and mining are high-risk enterprises, only occasionally providing high rewards. The success of the Company also depends, among other things on successful exploration and/or acquisition of reserves, securing and maintaining title to tenements and consents, successful design, construction, commissioning and operating of mining and processing facilities, successful development and production in accordance with forecasts and successful management of the operations. Exploration and mining activities may also be hampered by force majeure circumstances, land claims and unforeseen mining problems. There is no assurance that exploration and development of the mineral interests owned by the Company, or any other projects that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of mineral deposits which are capable of being exploited economically. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be profitably exploited. If such commercial viability is never attained, the Company may seek to transfer its

property interests or otherwise realise value, or the Company may even be required to abandon its business and fail as a “going concern”;
’ - The Company s operations may be adversely affected by the COVID 19 pandemic
The global economic outlook is facing uncertainty due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, which has been having, and will likely continue to have, a significant impact on global capital markets, commodity prices and foreign exchange. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had any material impact on the Company’s operations, however, any infections occurring on site at the Company’s projects could result in the Company’s operations being suspended and otherwise disrupted for an unknown period of time, which may have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations as well as adverse implications on the Company’s future cash flows, profitability and financial condition. Supply chain disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and measures implemented by governmental authorities around the world to limit the transmission of the virus (such as travel bans and quarantining) may, in addition to the general level of economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, also adversely impact the Company’s operations, financial position and prospects. Governmental or industry measures taken in response to COVID-19 may materially adversely impact the Company's operations and are likely to be beyond the control of the Company. To date, the measures imposed by Government or industry, including the restrictions in place as at the date of this report, have not had a material adverse impact on the Company's operations. However, future measures imposed by Government or industry may affect the Company's ability to freely move people and equipment to and from exploration projects, which may cause delays or cost increases.
The Company’s exploration activities being delayed due to lack of available equipment and services
The exploration activities of the Company requires the involvement of a number of third parties, including drilling contractors, assay laboratories, consultants, other contractors and suppliers. Demand for drilling equipment and exploration related services in Western Australia is currently very high and has resulted in higher exploration costs, delays in completing the Company’s exploration activities, and delays in the assessment and reporting of the results. Should there continue to be high demand for exploration equipment and related services, there may be further delays in undertaking exploration activities, which may result in increased exploration costs and/or increased working capital requirements for the Company and may have a material impact on the Company’s operations and performance.
The Company’s operations will require further capital
The exploration and any development of the Company’s exploration properties will require substantial additional financing. Failure to obtain sufficient financing may result in delaying, or the indefinite postponement of, exploration and any development of the Company’s properties or even a loss of property interest. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favourable to the Company.
The Company may be adversely affected by fluctuations in commodity prices
The price of commodities fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. Future production, if any, from the Company’s mineral properties will be dependent upon the price of commodities being adequate to make these properties economic. The Company currently does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage commodity price risk. As the Company’s operations change, this policy will be reviewed periodically going forward.
Global financial conditions may adversely affect the Company’s growth and profitability
Many industries, including the mineral resource industry, are impacted by these market conditions. Some of the key impacts include contraction in credit markets resulting in a widening of credit risk, devaluations and high volatility in global equity, commodity, foreign exchange and precious metal markets, and a lack of market liquidity. Due to the current nature of the Company’s activities, a slowdown in the financial markets or other economic conditions may adversely affect the Company’s growth and ability to finance its activities.

The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Non-Executive Directors of the Company is as follows:

The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to Non-Executive Directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for Non-Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the Company. However, to align Directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company.

2021 Annual Report 27
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of Preparation
Enterprise Metals Limited (“Enterprise” or the “Company”) is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The financial statements as at and for the year ended 30 June 2021 cover the consolidated group of Enterprise Metals Limited and the entities it controlled (together “the Group”). The Group is a for-profit entity.
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001 . The Company is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected, financial assets. The functional currency of the Group is Australian dollars.
The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 30 September 2021.
b) 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 their liabilities in the normal course of business.
As disclosed in the financial report, the Group recorded an operating loss of $1,654,354 (2020: $826,073), net current assets of $1,403,773 (2020: $953,243), net cash outflows used in operating activities of $1,554,167 (2020: $735,372), net cash outflows provided by investing activities of $139,799 (2020: $720,622). As at 30 June 2021 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,481,540 (2020: $1,006,975) for the year ended 30 June 2021.
The board considers that the Group is a going concern. In arriving at this position the Directors have had regard to the fact that based on the matters noted below the Group has, or in the Directors opinion, will have access to, sufficient cash to fund administrative and other committed expenditure for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing this report.
In forming this view the Directors have taken into consideration the following:
Planned capital raisings at a level that provides sufficient financial resources, combined with funds held as at the date of this report, to fund forecasted operational expenditure for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing this financial report.
Should the Group not achieve the matters set out above there is significant uncertainty whether the Group will continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report. The financial report does not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts or to the amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.
c) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of Company and all of the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries are entities the Company controls. The
28 Enterprise Metals Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021
Company controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in note 17.
The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
d) Income Tax
The income tax expense (deficit) for the year comprises current income tax expense (deficit) and deferred tax expense (deficit).
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.
Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
e) Property, Plant, and Equipment
Each class of property, plant, and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
2021 Annual Report 29
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
Plant and equipment are measured on the historical cost basis.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
| Plant and equipment | 25% |
|---|---|
| Computer equipment | 33% |
| Furniture and fittings | 25% |
The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in profit or loss.
f) Intangible Assets
Recognition of intangible assets
Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and install the specific software.
Subsequent measurement
All intangible assets are accounted for using the cost model whereby capitalised costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as these assets are considered finite. Residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each reporting date. In addition, they are subject to impairment testing.
The following useful lives are applied:
Software: 4 years
Amortisation has been included within depreciation, amortisation and impairment of non-financial assets. Subsequent expenditures on the maintenance of computer software are expensed as incurred.
When an intangible asset is disposed of, the gain or loss on disposal is determined as the difference between the proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and is recognised in profit or loss within other income or other expenses.
g) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward when the Group holds tenure over the area of interest and to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.
30 Enterprise Metals Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021
A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
h) Interest in Joint Arrangements
Joint arrangements represent the contractual sharing of control between parties in a business venture where unanimous decisions about relevant activities are required.
Joint operations represent arrangements whereby joint operators maintain direct interests in each asset and exposures to each liability of the arrangement. The Company has interests in the following joint operations:
Fraser Range Project - Constellation Resources Ltd holds a 70% interest and manages and wholly funds exploration on the three granted Orpheus Joint Venture tenements (E28/2403, E63/1281 and E63/1282) and one mineral exploration licence application (E63/1695). Enterprise holds a 30% free carried interest to completion of a bankable feasibility stage (BFS) on any discovery.
Doolgunna Project - Sandfire Resources NL entered into a farm-in agreement with Enterprise Metals in October 2016 to earn a 75% interest in the Enterprise’s Doolgunna Project by sole funding exploration to define a JORC (2012) compliant mineral resource of at least 50,000 tonnes of contained copper or copper equivalent.
Murchison Project - Evolution Mining Limited entered into an earn-in joint venture agreement (Murchison EJV) with Enterprise over the Murchison Project on 1 June 2019. Evolution can earn an 80% interest in the project by spending A$6 million on exploration over a four-year period.
i) Financial Instruments
Recognition and derecognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.
Classification and initial measurement of financial assets
Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable).
Subsequent measurement of financial assets
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets, other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments, are classified into the following category upon initial recognition:
-
equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
-
amortised cost
Classification is determined by both:
-
The Group’s business model for managing the financial asset
-
The contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets
All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, finance income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables which is presented within other expenses.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on:
– financial assets that are measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income;
2021 Annual Report 31
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
Loss allowance is not recognised for:
- equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
Expected credit losses are the probability-weighted estimate of credit losses over the expected life of a financial instrument. A credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due and all cash flows expected to be received, all discounted at the original effective interest rate of the financial instrument.
The Group uses the following approaches to impairment, as applicable under AASB 9: Financial Instruments:
– the general approach General approach
Under the general approach, at each reporting period, the Group assesses whether the financial instruments are credit-impaired, and if:
- there is no significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition,
the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
Recognition of expected credit losses in financial statements
At each reporting date, the Group recognises the movement in the loss allowance as an impairment gain or loss in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The carrying amount of financial assets measured at amortised cost includes the loss allowance relating to that asset.
Equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”)
Investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading are eligible for an irrevocable election at inception to be measured at FVOCI. Under this category, subsequent movements in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss.
Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss (“FVPL”). Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments). The Group has not designated any financial liabilities at FVPL.
j) Leases
The Group assesses at contract inception, all arrangements to determine whether they are, or contain, a lease. For all leases with a term of more than 12 months and unless the underlying asset is of low value, the Group recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Right-of-use assets
At the commencement date, a lessee shall measure the right-of-use asset at cost. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise:
(a) the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, as described in par agraph
(b) any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received;
(c) any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and
(d) an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the under lying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories. The lessee incurs the obligation for those costs either at the commencement date or as a consequence of having used the underlying asset during a particular period.
32 Enterprise Metals Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date, a lessee shall measure the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments shall be discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee shall use the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate.
After the commencement date, a lessee shall measure the lease liability by:
(a) increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability;
(b) reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made; and
(c) remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications.
k) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
At each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the profit or loss.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.
l) Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to reporting date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.
Equity-settled compensation
The Group operates an Incentive Option Scheme share-based compensation plan. The bonus element over the exercise price of the employee services rendered in exchange for the grant of shares and options is recognised as an expense in profit or loss. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the shares of the options granted. The fair value of options is ascertained using the Black-Scholes pricing model which incorporates all market vesting conditions.
m) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.
n) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.
o) Other Income
Interest income is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.
2021 Annual Report 33
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
Government payments (grants) are recognised at fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and all grant conditions will be met. Grants relating to expense items are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match the grant to the costs it is compensating. Grants relating to assets are credited to deferred income at fair value and are credited to income over the expected useful life of the asset on a straight-line basis.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
p) Trade and Other Payables
Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services received by the Group during the reporting period which remains unpaid. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amount being normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability.
q) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flow.
Commitments are presented on a gross basis.
r) Equity and Reserves
Share capital represents the fair value of shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs associated with the issuing of shares are deducted from share capital, net of any related income tax benefits.
Other components of equity include the following:
-
Equity instruments at FVOCI reserve – comprises gains and losses relating to these types of equity instruments.
-
Retained earnings include all current and prior period retained profits.
s) Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding any costs of service equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figure used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financial costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
t) Comparative Figures
When required by the Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
34 Enterprise Metals Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021
When the Group applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies items in its financial statements, a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period will be disclosed.
u) Rounding of Amounts
The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Legislative Instrument 2016/191, relating to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in the financial statements. Amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off in accordance with the instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.
v) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
When preparing the financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management, and will seldom equal the estimated results.
The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the financial statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied in the Group’s last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020.
Key Estimates — Impairment of Assets
The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the consolidated entity that may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined.
In determining the recoverable amount of assets, in the absence of quoted market prices, estimations are made regarding the present value of future cash flows using asset-specific discount rates and the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. Value-in-use calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates.
Key Judgments – Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
The Group capitalises expenditure relating to exploration and evaluation where it is considered likely to be recoverable or where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves.
Key Judgments – Benefit from Deferred Tax Losses
The future recoverability of the carried forward tax losses are dependent upon Group’s ability to generate taxable profits in the future in the same tax jurisdiction in which the losses arise. This is also subject to determinations and assessments made by the taxation authorities. The recognition of a deferred tax asset on carried forward tax losses (in excess of taxable temporary differences) is dependent on management’s assessment of these two factors. The ultimate recoupment and the benefit of these tax losses could differ materially from management’s assessment.
Potential deferred tax assets attributable to tax losses and exploration expenditure carried forward have not been brought to account at 30 June 2021 because the Directors do not believe it is appropriate to regard realisation of the deferred tax assets as probable at this point in time. These benefits will only be obtained if:
-
the Group derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit from the deductions for the loss and exploration expenditure to be realised;
-
the Group continues to comply with conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and
-
no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Group in realising the benefit from the deductions for the loss and exploration expenditure.
2021 Annual Report 35
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
Key Estimates – Share Option Scheme
On 1 December 2020, the Company issued 9,000,000 performance rights to its key management personnel. The rights convert on a one-to-one basis into fully paid ordinary shares as specified in note 3. The fair value of the options granted was estimated as at the date of grant using the Black Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted and factors such as the share price at grant date, volatility of the share price and risk free rate. As there were no vesting conditions attached, the expense of $87,285 (2020: Nil) was recognised in full as a share-based payment.
Key Estimates – Estimating the incremental borrowing rate
The Group cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in its leases. Therefore, it uses the relevant incremental borrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities. The IBR is the rate of interest that the Group would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment.
w) New and Amended Standards Adopted by the Group in this Financial Report
The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of this annual financial report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the Group’s annual financial report for the financial year ended 30 June 2020. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards. The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to their operations and effective for the current year. The Group has considered the implications of new amended Accounting Standards but determined that their application to the financial statements is either not relevant or not material.
x) Impact of Standards Issued but not yet Applied by the Group
There are a number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations issued by the AASB which are applicable to future reporting periods. The Group has not early adopted any of these standards or interpretations. The Group has reviewed the following new and amended standards and interpretations are concludes that none are expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3: SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
Option issues
On 1 December 2020, following shareholder approval at the 2020 AGM, the Company issued 9,000,000 options with an exercise price of $0.03 and an expiry date of 30 November 2023, to the Directors of the Company as remuneration. The fair value of the options granted was estimated as at the date of grant using the Black Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted and factors such as the share price at grant date, volatility of the share price and risk free rate. As there were no vesting conditions attached, the expense of $87,285 (2020: Nil) was recognised in full as a share-based payment.
During the year ended 30 June 2020, the Company issued 1,000,000 options with an exercise price of $0.015 to employees of the Company. The fair value of the options granted was estimated as at the date of grant using the Black Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted and factors such as the share price at grant date, volatility of the share price and risk free rate. As there were no vesting conditions attached, the expense of $3,381 was recognised in full in the year ended 30 June 2020.
Valuation of Share Based Payment
A summary of the key assumptions used in applying the Black Scholes model to the share based payments recognised in the year is as follows:
| 2021 | 2020 | |
|---|---|---|
| Number of options/rights | 9,000,000 | 1,000,000 |
| Date of grant | 24 Nov 2020 | 30 Mar 2020 |
| Share price at grant date | $0.016 | $0.007 |
| Volatility factor | 120.95% | 126.82% |
| Risk free rate | 0.11% | 0.26% |
| Expected life of option/right (years) | 3 years | 2 years |
| Valuation per option/right | $0.0097 | $0.0034 |
| Exercise price per option/right | $0.030 | $0.015 |
| Vesting conditions | None | None |

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
Incentive Option Scheme
Options, where appropriate, may be granted under the Enterprise Metals Limited Employee Share Option Plan (“ESOP”). Options are granted under the plan for no consideration on terms and conditions considered appropriate by the Board at the time of issue. Options are granted for up to a five year period. Options granted under the plan carry no dividend or voting rights.
The ability for the employee to exercise the options is restricted in accordance with the terms and conditions detailed in the ESOP. Each option will automatically lapse if not exercised within five years of the date of issue. The exercise period may also be affected by other events as detailed in the terms and conditions in the ESOP. The options vest as specified when the options are issued.
The fair value of the options granted is estimated as at the date of grant using the Black Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted and factors such as the share price at grant date, volatility of the share price and risk free rate. Were no vesting conditions are attached, the expense is recognised in full as a share-based payment. There were no options issued under the plan during the year ended 30 June 2021 (2020: $3,381).

Potential deferred tax assets have not been recognised at 30 June 2021 because the Directors do not believe it is appropriate to regard the realisation of the potential deferred tax assets as probable at this point in time. These benefits of the tax and capital losses will only be obtained if:
-
the Group derives future assessable income of a nature and amount to enable the benefit of the losses to be realised;
-
the Group continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by tax law; and no changes in tax law adversely affect the Group from realising the benefit of the tax losses.

The Directors’ assessment of whether any triggers of impairment for the Group’s exploration and evaluation assets existed as at 30 June 2021 was after consideration factors such as prevailing market conditions; previous expenditure for exploration work carried out on the tenements; maintaining rights to tenure; and the potential for mineralisation based on the Group’s and independent geological reports.
The ultimate value of these assets is dependent upon recoupment by commercial development or the sale of the whole or part of the Group’s interests in these exploration properties for an amount at least equal to the carrying value.
As at 30 June 2021, the Directors have concluded that there remains an expectation that the carrying amount of the Group’s exploration and evaluation assets will be recovered in full on the basis of the above factors, and with the exception of tenement no longer held, no other impairment triggers exist. Consequently, no detailed impairment assessment has been performed as at 30 June 2021. However, there may exist on the Group’s exploration properties, areas subject to claim under Native Title or containing sacred sites or sites of significance to Aboriginal people. As a result, the Group’s exploration properties or areas within the tenements may be subject to exploration and mining restrictions.
During the year, an impairment of $12,866 (30 June 2020: $26,596) was recognised as a result of expenditure on tenements no longer held or tenements not yet granted.

NOTE 20: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS RISK
(a) Capital Risk Management
The Directors’ objectives when managing capital are to ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern, so that they may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Group has no debt therefore has no externally imposed capital restrictions.
Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group’s capital risk management is the current working capital position against the requirements of the Group to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. The Group’s strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. The working capital position of the Group at 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020 are as follows:
| 2021 | 2020 | |
|---|---|---|
| $ | $ | |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 1,481,540 | 1,006,975 |
| Trade and other receivables | 54,265 | 24,806 |
| Trade and other payables | (126,925) | (117,470) |
| Lease liabilities | (24,519) | - |
| Working capital position | 1,384,361 | 914,311 |
(b) Financial Risk Management
The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, local money market instruments, accounts payable and lease liabilities. The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for Group operations. The Group does not speculate in the trading of derivative instruments.
The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk consisting of interest rate and equity price risk.
(c) Credit risk
Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties
of contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group.
The Group does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the Group.
Credit risk exposures
There are no other material amounts of collateral held as security at 30 June 2021. Trade and other receivables are expected to be settled within 30 days and there is no history of credit losses.
46 Enterprise Metals Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 30 June 2021
Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions is managed by the Group in accordance with approved Board policy. Such policy requires that surplus funds are only invested with counterparties with a Standard and Poor’s rating of at least AA-. The following table provides information regarding the credit risk relating to cash and money market securities based on Standard and Poor’s counterparty credit ratings.
| Note | 2021 | 2020 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| $ | $ | ||
| Cash and cash equivalents | |||
| - AA Rated | 6 | 1,481,540 | 1,006,975 |
(d) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities.
The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and ensuring sufficient cash and marketable securities are available to meet the current and future commitments of the Group. Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. The Board of Directors constantly monitor the state of equity markets in conjunction with the Group’s current and future funding requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. Any surplus funds are invested with major financial institutions.
The financial liabilities of the Group are confined to trade and other payables and lease liabilities as disclosed in the statement of financial position. All trade and other payables are non-interest bearing and due within 12 months of the reporting date.
(e) Net Fair Values
Cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, equity instruments and trade and other payables are short-term in nature whose carrying value is considered to be equivalent to fair value.
Fair value measurement hierarchy
AASB 13 Financial Instruments: Disclosures requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:
-
(a) Level 1 – the instrument has quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
-
(b) Level 2 – a valuation technique is used using inputs other than quoted priced within Level 1 that are observable for the financial instrument, either directly (i.e. as prices), or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); or
-
(c) Level 3 – a valuation technique is used using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
Valuation techniques used to derive level 2 and level 3 fair values
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based upon quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. The Group makes a number of assumptions based upon observable market data existing at each reporting period. The Group does not have any level 2 or 3 assets or liabilities.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
(f) Market risk
The Board meets on a regular basis to analyse currency and interest rate exposure and to evaluate treasury management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts.
Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments.
Interest rate risk is managed by closely monitoring the interest rates at various financial institutions. The Company has no debt and as such the interest rate risk is limited to the Company’s cash on hand.
A summary of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities exposed to interest rate risk is shown below:
| Floating Interest Rate Fixed Interest maturing in 1 year or less Fixed Interest maturing over 1 to 5 years Non- interest bearing Total |
Floating Interest Rate Fixed Interest maturing in 1 year or less Fixed Interest maturing over 1 to 5 years Non- interest bearing Total |

Independent Auditor’s Report
ENTERPRISE METALS LIMITED ABN 43 123 567 073
INDEPENDENT AUDITORʼS REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ENTERPRISE METALS LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Enterprise Metals Limited (the “Company”) and its controlled entities (the “Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directorsʼ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
��� giving a true and fair view of the Groupʼs financial position as at 30 June 2021 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
-
��� complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditorʼs Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Boardʼs APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards ) (the “Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 1(b) in the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2021 which indicates that the Group recorded an operating loss of $1,654,354 (2020: $445,973), reported net cash used in operating activities of $1,554,167 (2020: $735,372) and as at that date had cash and cash equivalents of $1,481,540 (2020: $1,006,975). These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1(b), indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Groupʼs ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Independent Auditor’s Report
ENTERPRISE METALS LIMITED ABN 43 123 567 073 INDEPENDENT AUDITORʼS REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ENTERPRISE METALS LIMITED
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key Audit Matters
How our audit addressed the key audit matters
Capitalisation of exploration and evaluation expenditure
Refer to Note 12 to the financial report.
As at 30 June 2021, the Group held capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure of $6,262,607.
The carrying value of exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment by the Group when facts and circumstances indicate that the capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure may exceed its recoverable amount.
The determination as to whether there are any indicators to require the capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure to be assessed for impairment involves a number of judgments including but not limited to:
-
Whether the Group has tenure of the relevant area of interest;
-
Whether the Group has sufficient funds to meet the relevant area of interest minimum expenditure requirements; and
-
Whether there is sufficient information for a decision to be made that the relevant area of interest is not commercially viable.
Due to the significance to the Groupʼs financial report and the level of judgment involved in assessing whether there are impairment indicators present and in the calculation of the recoverable amount of the capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure, we consider this to be a key audit matter.
Our procedures included, amongst others:
Obtaining an understating of and evaluating the design and implementation of the processes and controls associated with the capitalisation of exploration and evaluation expenditure, and those associated with the assessment of impairment indicators.
Assessing the Groupʼs right to explore in the relevant area of interest, which included obtaining and assessing supporting documentation. We also considered the status of the exploration licences as they related to tenure.
Assessing whether the exploration activities within each area of interest have reached a stage where the commercial viability of extracting the resource could be determined.
Assessing the Groupʼs intention to carry out significant exploration and evaluation activity in the relevant area of interest, including an assessment of the Groupʼs cash-flow forecast models, discussions with senior management and directors as to the intentions and strategy of the Group.
Assessing the Groupʼs calculation of the recoverable amount of the capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure.
Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures included within the financial report.

Key Audit Matters continued
How our audit addressed the key audit matters
Share Based Payments
Refer to Note 3 to the financial report
Share-based payments represent $87,285 of the Groupʼs expenditure for the year ended 30 June 2021.
Share-based payments must be recorded at fair value of the service provided, or in the absence of such, at the fair value of the underlying equity instrument granted. Under Australian Accounting Standards, equity settled awards are measured at fair value on the measurement date taking into consideration the probability of the vesting conditions (if any) attached. This amount is recognised as an expense either immediately if there are no vesting conditions, or over the vesting period if there are vesting conditions.
In calculating the fair value there are a number of judgements management must make, including but not limited to:
Our procedures included, amongst others:
Obtaining an understanding of and evaluating the design and implementation of the processes and controls associated with the preparation of the valuation model used to assess the fair value of the underlying equity instrument granted.
Assessing the key judgements management has made in the Groupʼs calculation of the fair value including but not limited to:
-
Estimating the likelihood that the equity instruments will vest;
-
Estimating expected future share price volatility;
-
Estimating expected dividend yield; and
-
Risk-free rate of interest.
-
Estimating the likelihood that the equity instruments will vest;
-
Estimating expected future share price volatility;
Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures included within the financial report.
-
Estimating expected dividend yield; and
-
Risk-free rate of interest.
Due to the significance to the Groupʼs financial report and the level of judgment involved in determining the fair value of the underlying equity instrument granted, we consider the Groupʼs calculation of the sharebased payment expense to be a key audit matter.
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Groupʼs annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but does not include the financial report and our auditorʼs report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly 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.
54 Enterprise Metals Limited
Independent Auditor’s Report
ENTERPRISE METALS LIMITED ABN 43 123 567 073
INDEPENDENT AUDITORʼS REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ENTERPRISE METALS LIMITED
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 ability of the Group 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.
Auditorʼs 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 auditorʼs 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.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 the Groupʼs internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directorsʼ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Groupʼs ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditorʼs report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditorʼs report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
2021 Annual Report 55
Independent Auditor’s Report
ENTERPRISE METALS LIMITED ABN 43 123 567 073
INDEPENDENT AUDITORʼS REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ENTERPRISE METALS LIMITED
- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditorʼs report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Report on the Remuneration Report
Opinion on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in the directorsʼ report for the year ended 30 June 2021. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Enterprise Metals Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2021, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 .
Responsibilities
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 . Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.

Please refer to the corporate governance statement and the Appendix 4G released to ASX and posted on the Company website.

The Company’s practices are mainly consistent with those of the guidelines and where they do not correlate with the recommendations in the guidelines the Company considers that its adopted practices are appropriate to it.
