Review of Operations
During the reporting period, the Company continued to evaluate and assess value-adding opportunities to bring into its portfolio of assets. On the corporate front the Company completed a capital raising of $2.4 million after costs and funds raised were directed towards the acquisition of the Chillagoe Gold Project in Queensland and the planned exploration program. On the exploration front, exploration efforts were focused on the Southern New England Projects in New South Wales being EL 7699 the “Glen Morrison” project and EL 7698 the “Cobark” project and the commencement of the exploration program on the Chillagoe Project.
Corporate
• On 28 October 2011, Tellus Resources announced that it had entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Northern Discovery Limited, an unlisted Australian public company with a portfolio of coal assets in Indonesia, subject to a number of conditions. On 23 January 2012, by mutual consent both parties agreed to terminate the MOU.
• On 21 November 2011, Tellus Resources announced it had entered into Binding Heads of Agreement (“the Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Premier Minerals Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Premier Mining Limited (“Premier”), an unlisted Australian public company with significant Intrusive Related Gold (IRG) assets near Chillagoe in North Queensland. Tellus Resources paid Premier a non-refundable deposit of $50,000, which provided the Company exclusivity until settlement.
• On 30 April 2012, the Company completed a capital raising of $2.4M after costs to largely fund the payment for the Chillagoe Project and the planned exploration program. On completion of the capital raising a total of 12,375,000 new ordinary shares were issued bringing total issued capital to 39,525,000 shares.
• On 16 May 2012, the Company announced that the Agreement with Premier was executed and paid Premier a further $950,000 in cash and issued Premier $1,000,000 worth of shares in Tellus being 5,555,555 fully paid ordinary shares subject to shareholder approval which was received on 29 August 2012. These shares are subject to a voluntary escrow period of 24 months. In addition, upon successful delineation and announcement by Tellus Resources of an Indicated JORC resource of at least 300,000 ounces of gold with a cut-off grade of 3.0 grams per tonne, Tellus Resources will pay Premier a further $2,000,000 in cash; and issue Premier $2,000,000 worth of shares (subject to shareholder approval) in Tellus at a deemed issue price calculated using the thirty (30) day VWAP over the preceding thirty (30) trading days.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
Review of Operations (continued)
Exploration
• During the reporting period, a total of 1,327 metres of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling was completed on the Glen Morrison Prospect. Best results included four (4) metres at 0.67g/t Au from 12 metres in hole GMRC002, including one (1) metre at 1.15g/t Au. Most rock chip samples demonstrated a strong arsenopyrite-gold correlation. Gold assays were highest where there was a lower concentration of arsenopyrite in the mineral signature. A seven metre veined and mineralised intersection in hole GMRC007 returned seven (7) metres at 0.13g/t gold from a depth of 72 metres. No further exploration has been completed in 2012 on the NSW projects. During the reporting period, the Company assessed the carrying value of the Glen Morrison and Cobark projects resulting in an impairment charge of $327,076. Tellus retains these licenses for future evaluation and assessment.
-
Since the acquisition of the Chillagoe Project, the Group has focused on:
-
validation and compilation of previous drilling into a digital database;
-
creation of a robust geological model to explain the significant gold and gold-silver intersected by previous explorers;
-
mobilisation of field crews and setup of a field base in Chillagoe; and
-
the drilling program at the Chillagoe Gold Project designed to confirm positions and grades of the existing gold and goldsilver intersections at Wandoo and Empire.
RC drilling started on the 22nd May 2012, focused on proving up and confirming the previously defined ‘discovery’ intersections from the approximately 30 years of previous drilling. By the end of the reporting period, a total of fifteen (15) RC holes for 2,688m were completed at the Chillagoe Gold Project. Thirteen (13) holes were drilled within the Empire mining lease (ML20380), ten (10) at the Empire Prospect and three (3) at the Pinnacles Prospect. Two (2) holes were completed at the Bayley’s Prospect within the Mt Wandoo mining lease (ML5130). On 17 August 2012, the Company announced significant gold and silver mineralisation has been confirmed within the Empire and Wandoo Prospects validating the IRG model for the mineralisation.
Changes in the State of Affairs
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the reporting period ended 30 June 2012 other than as referred to in this report and the Financial Statements or notes thereto.
Dividends
The Directors recommend that no dividend be paid for the reporting period ended 30 June 2012 nor have any amounts been paid or declared by way of dividend during the reporting period.
Events Subsequent To Reporting Date
At a General Meeting of shareholders held on 29 August 2012, shareholders gave directors approval to allot up to 5,000,000 options over ordinary shares in Tellus Resources to Mr Ben Salmon, or his nominee, in consideration for his services in introducing the Company to sophisticated investors who participated in the capital raising, the completion of which was announced on 30 April 2012. Each Option may be exercised at twenty-five cents (25c) per Option on or before 2 years from date of grant.
Other than as stated elsewhere in this report, Directors are not aware of any other matters or circumstances at the date of this report that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations, the results of the operations or the state of affairs of the Group in subsequent financial years.
Likely Future Developments
No other likely developments of the Group are included in this report as the Directors believe, on reasonable grounds, that inclusion of such information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.

Indemnities given and insurance premiums paid to auditors and officers
During the reporting period, the Company paid an insurance premium to insure the Directors and Officers of the Group. The Officers of the Company covered by the insurance policy include all Directors and the Company Secretary. The liabilities insured are legal costs that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings that may be brought against the officers in their capacity as officers of the Company, and any other payments arising from liabilities incurred by the officers in connection with such proceedings, other than where such liabilities arise out of conduct involving a willful breach of duty by the officers or the improper use by the officers of their position or of information to gain advantage for themselves or someone else to cause detriment to the Company. Details of the amount of the premium paid in respect of the insurance policies are not disclosed as such disclosure is prohibited under the terms of the contract.
The Company has entered into an agreement with the Directors and Officers to indemnify them against any claim and related expenses, which arise as a result of work completed in their respective capabilities.
The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted by law, indemnified or agreed to indemnify any current or former officer or auditor of the Company against a liability incurred as such by an officer or auditor.
Non Audit Services
During the reporting period, the Group’s auditor assisted the Company in the preparation of the S708 Cleansing Prospectus.
The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor and is satisfied that the provision of those non-audit services during the year is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
• All non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed by the Board to ensure they do not impact upon the impartiality and objectivity of the auditor; and
• The non-audit services do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards.
Details of the amounts paid to the auditors of the Group, Grant Thornton, and its related practices for audit and non-audit services provided during the year are set out in Note 25 to the Financial Statements.
A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required under s307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is included on page 15 of this financial report and forms part of this Directors’ report.

Remuneration report (Audited)
The Directors of Tellus Resources present the Remuneration Report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:
-
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
-
Details of remuneration
-
Service agreements
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
The following report determines the principle used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration. The Board is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors and Key Management Personnel. The role also includes responsibility for share options incentives, superannuation entitlements, retirement and termination entitlements, fringe benefits policies, liability insurance policies and other terms of employment.
The Board will review the arrangements having regard to performance, relevant comparative information and at its discretion may obtain independent expert advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages or fees paid to Key Management Personnel. No remuneration consultant was used during the period. Remuneration packages are set at levels intended to attract and retain Key Management Personnel capable of managing the Group’s activities. Where Key Management Personnel positions are held by consultants, fees are based on normal commercial terms and conditions.
The remuneration of an Executive Director will be decided by the Board, without the affected Executive Director participating in that decision-making process.
The total maximum remuneration of Non-Executive Directors is the subject of a Shareholder resolution in accordance with the Company’s Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of NonExecutive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each Non-Executive Director. The current limit, which may only be varied by Shareholders in general meeting, is an aggregate amount of $250,000 per annum.
The Board may award additional remuneration to Non-Executive Directors called upon to perform extra services or make special exertions on behalf of the Group.
The executive pay and reward framework has three components:
-
base pay and benefits;
-
long-term incentives through share schemes; and
-
other remuneration such as superannuation.
The combination of these comprises the Key Management Personnel total remuneration.
All remuneration is fixed and no portion is based on performance targets. The award of long-term incentives is based upon the discretion of the Board.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
1. Nature of Operations
Tellus Resources Ltd and its subsidiary (the Group) principal activities include mineral exploration.
2. General information
Tellus Resources Ltd is the Group’s ultimate parent company and is a listed public company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Tellus Resources was incorporated on 21 June 2010.
Tellus Resources is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.
The registered and principal place of business is Suite 301, Level 3, 66 Hunter Street, Sydney NSW 2000. Tellus Resources’ shares are listed on the ASX.
3. Significant accounting policies
a) Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance
The consolidated general purpose financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. Australian Accounting Standards incorporate International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensure that the financial statements and notes also comply with IFRS. The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2012 (including comparatives) were approved and authorised for issue by the board of Directors on 12 September 2012
Historical Cost Convention
The financial report has been prepared on an accrual basis and is based on the historical costs modified, where applicable by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.
Functional and presentation currency
Both the functional and presentation currency of the Group is in Australian dollars.
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of a financial report in conformity with Australian Accounting Standards requires management to make judgments, 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.
Judgments made by management in the application of Australian Accounting Standards that have significant effect on the financial report and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in Note 3 (s) below.
b) Basis of consolidation
The Group financial statements consolidate those of the parent company and all of its subsidiary undertakings drawn up to 30 June 2012. Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has the power to control the financial and operating policies. The Group obtains and exercises control through more than half of the voting rights. All subsidiaries have a reporting date of 30 June.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
All transactions and balances between Group companies are eliminated on consolidation, including unrealised gains and losses on transactions between Group companies. Where unrealised losses on intra-group asset sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment from a group perspective. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are recognised from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.
Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the portion of a subsidiary's profit or loss and net assets that is not held by the Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on their respective ownership interests.
c) Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of six months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
d) Property, plant and equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is calculated on the diminishing balance method as follows:
| Computer equipment | 40% |
|---|---|
| Computer software | 40% |
| Field Equipment | 20% |
The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method is reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period and adjusted if appropriate.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the statement of comprehensive income.
e) Intangibles
Amortisation is calculated on the diminishing balance method as follows:
Computer software 40%
f) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Pre-licence costs are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as incurred.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure, including the costs of acquiring licences, are capitalised on a project by project basis. These costs are only carried forward 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 which permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
Expenditure deemed to be unsuccessful is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income immediately.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
g) Impairment
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying value of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the assets, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
h) Goods and Services Tax
Revenues, 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 Australian Tax Office (“ATO”). 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.
i) Income Tax
Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income statement 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 substantially 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 following temporary differences are not provided for: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. No temporary differences are recognised on the initial recognition of goodwill
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 utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.
j) Trade and Other Payables
Trade and other payables are stated at cost and are recognised when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
k) Trade and Other Receivables
Trade and other receivables are stated at their cost less impairment losses.
l) Revenue
Interest revenue is recognised on a receivable basis. Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial asset.
m) Operating expenses
Operating expenses are recognised in profit and loss upon utilisation of the service or at date of their origin.
n) Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors.
o) Share based payments
Equity-settled share-based payments granted are measured at fair value at the date of grant. Fair value is calculated using the Black Scholes methodology share options. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is recognised over the vesting period.

Significant accounting policies (continued)

p) Contributed equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are recognised directly in equity as a deduction, net of tax allowable from proceeds.
q) Earnings per share
- (i) Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
-
the profit attributable to owners of the Group, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares; and
-
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year,
-
(ii) Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
-
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and
-
the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
-
r) New accounting standards and interpretations
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2012 reporting periods. The Group 's assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.
- AASB 9 Financial Instruments, AASB 2009-11 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 and AASB 2010-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010) (effective from 1 January 2013).
AASB 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The standard is not applicable until 1 January 2013 but is available for early adoption. When adopted, the standard will affect in particular the Group’s accounting for its available-for-sale financial assets, since AASB 9 only permits the recognition of fair value gains and losses in other comprehensive income if they relate to equity investments that are not held for trading. Fair value gains and losses on available-for-sale debt investments, for example, will therefore have to be recognised directly in profit or loss. In the current reporting period, the Group did not record any such gains in other comprehensive income.
There will be no impact on the Group’s accounting for financial liabilities, as the new requirements only affect the accounting for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss and the Group does not have any such liabilities. The derecognition rules have been transferred from AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and have not been changed. The Group has not yet decided when to adopt AASB 9.
Consolidation Standards
A package of consolidation standards are effective for annual periods beginning or after 1 January 2013. Information on these new standards is presented below. The Group’s management have yet to assess the impact of these new and revised standards on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
- AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (AASB 10)
AASB 10 supersedes the consolidation requirements in AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (AASB 127) and Interpretation 112 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. It revised the definition of control together with accompanying guidance to identify an interest in a subsidiary. However, the requirements and mechanics of consolidation and the accounting for any non-controlling interests and changes in control remain the same.

Significant accounting policies (continued)
-
AASB 11 Joint Arrangements (AASB 11)
AASB 11 supersedes AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures (AASB 131). It aligns more closely the accounting by the investors with their rights and obligations relating to the joint arrangement. It introduces two accounting categories (joint operations and joint ventures) whose applicability is determined based on the substance of the joint arrangement. In addition, AASB 131’s option of using proportionate consolidation for joint ventures has been eliminated. AASB 11 now requires the use of the equity accounting method for joint ventures, which is currently used for investments in associates.
- AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (AASB 12)
AASB 12 integrates and makes consistent the disclosure requirements for various types of investments, including unconsolidated structured entities. It introduces new disclosure requirements about the risks to which an entity is exposed from its involvement with structured entities.
- Consequential amendments to AASB 127 Separate Financial Statements (AASB 127) and AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (AASB 128)
AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements was amended to AASB 127 Separate Financial Statements which now deals only with separate financial statements. AASB 128 brings investments in joint ventures into its scope. However, AASB 128’s equity accounting methodology remains unchanged.
-
AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement (AASB 13)
AASB 13 does not affect which items are required to be fair-valued, but clarifies the definition of fair value and provides related guidance and enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements. It is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. The Group’s management have yet to assess the impact of this new standard.
- AASB 2011-9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income s (AASB 101 Amendments)
The AASB 101 Amendments require an entity to group items presented in other comprehensive income into those that, in accordance with other IFRSs: (a) will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss and (b) will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met. It is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012. The Group’s management expects this will change the current presentation of items in other comprehensive income; however, it will not affect the measurement or recognition of such items.
-
Amendments to AASB 119 Employee Benefits (AASB 119 Amendments)
The AASB 119 Amendments include a number of targeted improvements throughout the Standard. The main changes relate to defined benefit plans. They:
-
eliminate the ‘corridor method’, requiring entities to recognise all gains and losses arising in the reporting period in other comprehensive income
-
streamline the presentation of changes in plan assets and liabilities
-
enhance the disclosure requirements, including information about the characteristics of defined benefit plans and the risks that entities are exposed to through participation in them.
The amended version of AASB 119 is effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2013. The Group’s management have yet to assess the impact of this revised standard on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

AASB 2011-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards to Remove Individual Key Management Personnel Disclosure Requirements (AASB 124 Amendments)
AASB 2011-4 makes amendments to AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to remove individual key management personnel disclosure requirements, to achieve consistency with the international equivalent (which includes requirements to disclose aggregate (rather than individual) amounts of KMP compensation), and remove duplication with the Corporations Act 2011. The amendments are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2013. The Group’s management have yet to assess the impact of these amendments.
- AASB 2011-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards to Remove Individual Key Management Personnel Disclosure Requirements (AASB 124 Amendments)
AASB 2011-4 makes amendments to AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to remove individual key management personnel disclosure requirements, to achieve consistency with the international equivalent (which includes requirements to disclose aggregate (rather than individual) amounts of KMP compensation), and remove duplication with the Corporations Act 2011. The amendments are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2013. The Group’s management have yet to assess the impact of these amendments.
- Amendments to AASB 2012-2 and AASB 2012-3 Financial Instruments: Presentation and AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures 5
The amendments to AASB 2012-2 and AASB 2012-3 add application guidance to address inconsistencies in applying AASB 2012’s criteria for offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities. Qualitative and quantitative disclosures have been added to AASB 7 relating to gross and net amounts of recognised financial instruments that are (a) set off in the statement of financial position and (b) subject to enforceable master netting arrangements and similar agreements, even if not set off in the statement of financial position. The amendments are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014 for AASB 2012-2 and on or after 1 January 2015 for AASB 2012-3. The Group’s management have yet to assess the impact of these amendments.
- AASB Interpretation 20 Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine
Clarifies that costs of removing mine waste materials (overburden) to gain access to mineral ore deposits during the production phase of a mine must be capitalised as inventories under AASB 112 Inventories if the benefits from stripping activity is realised in the form of inventory produced. Otherwise, if stripping activity provides improved access to the ore, stripping costs must be capitalised as a non-current, stripping activity asset if certain recognition criteria are met (as an addition to, or enhancement of, an existing asset). The interpretation is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. The interpretation will have no impact on the Group as it has no mining activities.
s) Key judgement estimates
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments. 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.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Critical judgements in applying the entity’s accounting policies
The following are the critical judgements including those involving estimations, that management has made in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
i) Share-based payments
The Group is required to use assumptions in respect of the fair value model, and the variable element in the model, used in determining the share based payments.
ii) Impairment of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure
The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale or other means.
Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to the environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices.
Given the stage of exploration of the Group, it is not possible to reliably estimate future cash flows. The carrying value of mineral properties is reviewed and assessed with reference to comparative transactions, the status of existing joint venture arrangements, market volatility and the significant changes in valuations for all mineral assets as a result of the recent significant discounting of equity markets. To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which this determination is made.
4. Segment information
During the year the Group operated predominantly in one operating segment, being mineral exploration. Segment accounting policies are the same as the Group’s policies described in Note 3.

These responses include the management of debt levels, working capital requirements, distributions to shareholders and share issues.

The Company has minimum expenditure commitments to meet the conditions under which the properties are granted. These minimum expenditure commitments total $956,500 (annual minimum expenditure on mineral properties from grant date of the licence to the renewal date is $402,500). These minimum commitments may vary from time to time, subject to approval by the grantor of titles or by variation of contractual agreements. The expenditure represents potential expenditure which may be reduced by entering into sale, joint venture or relinquishment of the interests and may vary depending upon the results of exploration. Should expenditure not reach the required level in respect of each area of interest, the Company’s interest could be either reduced or forfeited.

i) Chillagoe Gold Project, QLD
In accordance with the Agreement dated 15 May 2012 with Premier Mining Limited, upon the successful delineation and announcement by Tellus Resources of an Indicated JORC resource of at least 300,000 ounces of gold with a cut-off grade of 3.0 grams per tonne at the Chillagoe Gold Project, Tellus will pay Premier a further $2,000,000 in cash; and issue Premier $2,000,000 worth of shares in Tellus.
ii) Litigation
Tellus Resources was joined as a party in two proceedings in the New South Wales Court of Appeal by Mr Albert Gilbert Martin, in which Mr Martin alleged that the Company was granted certain exploration licences as a result of the alleged misuse of confidential information by the Department of Industry and Investment and others, information which Mr Martin alleges he supplied.
Tellus Resources was the Sixth Respondent in proceeding 2011/84040 in the Court of Appeal and the Fifth Respondent in proceeding 2011/185491 in that Court. The proceedings were appeals brought by Mr Anthony Gilbert Martin against various decisions of the New South Wales Land and Environment Court. Tellus Resources was not a party in either of the proceedings in the Land and Environment Court, to which the appeals relate, although Mr Martin unsuccessfully sought to join the company to the Court of Appeal proceedings 2011/185491.
On 14 September 2011, the Court of Appeal delivered judgement in the two Court of Appeal proceedings. In proceeding CA2011/185491, the appeal was struck out as incompetent, leave to appeal was refused and Mr Martin was ordered to pay costs of the Respondents, including Tellus Resources.
In proceeding CA2011/84040, the Court of Appeal granted leave to appeal on limited grounds, being grounds relating to an order for security of costs. Otherwise leave to appeal was refused.
On 19 September, 2011 the Court of Appeal delivered a further judgment in proceedings 2011/84040 in which orders were made striking out certain orders in the Notice of Appeal, including the orders relating to Tellus Resources Limited, and for costs in favour of the Company.
Mr Martin filed a Notice of Motion in the Court of Appeal proceedings to which Tellus Resources Limited was a party, wherein Mr Martin sought orders against Tellus Resources and other parties for alleged contempt of Court and exemplary damages. This Notice of Motion was heard by the Court of Appeal on 27 September, 2011. The Court of Appeal reserved judgment in respect of the Notice of Motion and subsequently dismissed the Notice of Motion and ordered Mr Martin to pay the costs of Tellus Resources.
Mr Martin filed a further Notice of Motion on 26 September, 2011, in which he sought orders that the orders made by the Court of Appeal on 14 and 19 September, 2011 be set aside. The Court ordered Mr Martin to file and serve his written submissions in respect of this Notice of Motion within 28 days and the Court would then proceed to determine the Notice of Motion on 28 October 2011, Mr Martin served Tellus Resources with written submissions.
The Court of Appeal delivered judgment on 21 March, 2012. The Notice of Motion was dismissed and Mr Martin was ordered to pay the costs of Tellus Resources.
On 3 May, 2012 Mr Martin filed an application for special leave to appeal to the High Court of Australia against Part B of the judgment given on 21 March, 2012.
On 24 May, 2012 Mr Martin filed a further application for special leave to appeal to the High Court of Australia against Part C of the judgment given on 21 March, 2012.
These applications were dismissed by the High Court of Australia on 15 August, 2012.
Mr Martin has advised that he intends to further pursue his claims against the Company. At this stage Mr Martin's further actions are unclear to the Company and its advisers and further information has been sought from Mr Martin. We remain of the view that no loss is expected in regard to this matter.

Financial Risk Exposures and Management
The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, liquidity and credit risk. Due to the size of the Group, a separate finance committee does not exist. The Board is responsible for the financial risk management and considers future cash flow requirements as required.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is managed by investing cash with major financial institutions in both cash on deposit and term deposit accounts.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2012
21. Financial instruments (continued)
Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows. The Group’s operations require it to raise capital on an on-going basis to fund its planned exploration program and to commercialise its tenement assets. If the Group does not raise capital in the short term, it can continue as a going concern by reducing planned but not committed exploration expenditure until funding is available and/or entering into joint venture arrangements where exploration is funded by the joint venture partner.
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group as well as through deposits with financial institutions. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults and only banks and financial institutions with an ‘A’ rating are utilised. The Group measures risk on a fair value basis.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at reporting date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements.
Price risk
The Group does not derive revenue from sale of products, therefore the effect on profit and equity as a result of changes in the price risk is not considered material. The fair value of the mineral projects will be impacted by commodity price changes and could impact future revenues once operational. However, management monitors current and projected commodity prices.
The Group is mainly exposed to mining services price risk. Management constantly monitors price movements and seeks ways to minimise the cost on operating activities.
Financial instruments
The Group has exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on those financial assets and the financial liabilities.
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk and effective weighted average interest rate for financial assets and liabilities is set out below.

Net fair values
The Directors consider that the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximates their fair values.
Sensitivity analysis
Interest Rate Risk and Price Risk
The Group has performed sensitivity analysis relating to its exposure to interest rate risk and price risk at reporting date. This sensitivity analysis demonstrates the effect on the current year results and equity which could result from a change in these risks.
Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis
At 30 June 2012, the effect on loss and equity as a result of fluctuations in the interest rate, with all other variables remaining constant has been considered. For the purpose of this exercise, a 1% increase in the interest rate results in a decrease in loss by $12,657 (2011: $4,870) and an increase in equity by $12,657 (2011: $4,870). These changes are considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of current market conditions.
Price Risk Sensitivity Analysis
As the Group does not derive revenue from sale of products, the effect on profit and equity as a result of changes in the price risk is not considered material. The fair value of the exploration projects will be impacted by commodity price changes and could impact future revenues once operational. However, management monitors current and projected commodity prices.

The determination of the probability and therefore discount to apply is somewhat subjective as it is difficult to predict the future prospects of the Group or the market. However, the time to meet Milestones 2 and 3 are quite long (to 27 January 2017) and the share volatility since the shares have been traded on ASX in May 2011 approximates 67% and these have been taken into account in determining the appropriate discount. For purposes of our valuation, we have estimated the discount to apply to the value of the Performance Rights with market based vesting conditions.
Based on the above assumptions (after discounting where appropriate for market based conditions) the values are as follows:
| PERFORMANCE | 27 JANUARY 2012 VALUE (CENTS) AFTER DISCOUNT |

26. Acquisition of Premier Mining Pty Ltd
On 21 November 2011, Tellus Resources announced it had entered into Binding Heads of Agreement (“the Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Premier Mining Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Premier Minerals Limited, an unlisted Australian public company. Upon execution of the Agreement Tellus paid Premier a non-refundable deposit of $50,000, which provided Tellus exclusivity until settlement.
On 15 May 2012, on Settlement of the Agreement Tellus Resources paid Premier a further $950,000 in cash and granted Premier $1,000,000 worth of shares in Tellus Resources, being 5,555,555 fully paid ordinary shares. These shares were issued in two tranches: 5,261,250 fully paid ordinary shares on 17 May 2012; and 294,305 fully paid ordinary shares on 28 May 2012; and are subject to a voluntary escrow period of 24 months.
Upon successful delineation and announcement by Tellus Resources of an Indicated JORC resource of at least 300,000 ounces of gold with a cut-off grade of 3.0 grams per tonne, Tellus will pay Premier a further $2,000,000 in cash; and issue Premier $2,000,000 worth of shares in Tellus. At the date of acquisition the Directors have assessed that the probability of these amounts becoming payable are remote and so have only been included as a contingent liability. At the date of acquisition, Premier Mining had no employees and its only assets were the mineral properties and related security deposits. Accordingly Premier Mining does not constitute a business and has been accounted for as an asset acquisition.
