Notes to the Interim Financial Statements For the half-year ended 31 December 2012

Note 1 Basis of preparation of half-year report

This general purpose financial report for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2012 has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting , Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

This interim financial report does not include all the disclosure and notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2012 and any public announcements made by Emergent Resources Limited during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.

The half year report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historic costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.

Adoption of new and revised accounting standards

In the half year ended 31 December 2012, the Company has reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011. It has been determined by the Company that, other than for the following new accounting standards adopted during the reporting period, there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised standards and interpretations on its business and therefore no change is necessary to Company accounting policies.

New accounting standards adopted since the end of the last reporting period

The Company has also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the half-year ended 31 December 2012. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on its business and, therefore, no change necessary to Company accounting policies

No retrospective change in accounting policy or material reclassification has occurred requiring the inclusion of a third Statement of Financial Position as at the beginning of the comparative financial period, as required under AASB 101.

The consolidated interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 15th March 2013.

Emergent Resources Limited ABN 68 125 323 622

Notes to the Interim Financial Statements For the half-year ended 31 December 2012

Note 2 Segment information

The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the board of directors in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments, where the segments have similar characteristics.

In prior reporting periods the Company had defined the Beyondie Iron Project as a separate reporting segment. During the reporting period, the Directors resolved to impair all other areas of interest, leaving only the Beyondie Iron Project as its only exploration asset on the statement of financial position.

As a result the Company’s only material reportable segment for the financial period has been identified as the Company as a whole and as such the reporting segment is represented by the primary statements forming these financial statements.

Note 3 Loss for the period

Loss before income tax includes the following specific expenses:

Depreciation
Office equipment
Plant and equipment
Impairment of exploration costs*
