CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
Dear Shareholder,
Financial Year 2025 has been an important year in Galileo’s evolution, as we sharpened our focus on unlocking the value of Platinum Group Element (PGE) mineralisation at our 100%-owned Norseman Project.
In a tightening global market for critical metals—where demand for clean technologies is rising and ethical supply chains are under scrutiny—our Norseman Project stands out as one of the most compelling PGE exploration opportunities in Australia. Galileo is among the few ASX-listed companies with a defined PGE resource (Refer to Pg 7 of this Report), and our recent results suggest we are only beginning to uncover the full potential of this asset.
Galileo is one of only a handful of companies with PGE resources in Australia, and our Norseman Project was only recently added to the country’s list of PGE-prospective regions following our 2022 Callisto discovery. We believe the potential for further discoveries at Norseman is high, and that the ultimate endowment of this new mineral belt could far exceed the current 1.2Moz PdEq resource.
Our Financial Year 2025 exploration centred on Mission Sill, located just 6km from Callisto. Systematic drilling—more than 9,800 metres of aircore and 2,100 metres of Reverse Circulation (RC)—has significantly extended known occurrences of mineralisation. High-grade shallow aircore intercepts have returned palladium grades over 4g/t and platinum over 2g/t, with the additional presence of rhodium further enhancing the project’s exploration value.
With most of the Norseman Project never having been systematically tested for PGEs, we are confident in the potential for additional discoveries. Norseman is emerging as a new mineralised belt with multiple high-value target zones and opportunities for value creation. Our upcoming programs reflect that opportunity:
-
At Mission Sill, aircore drilling has recently tested southern extensions of the system while RC drilling is planned to follow up high-priority targets.
-
At Callisto, preparations are advancing for deep RC and diamond drilling targeting mineralisation at depth—supported by co-funding from the WA Government’s Exploration Incentive Scheme.
At our Fraser Range Project, we maintained momentum while applying technical discipline. While early-stage drilling at the Easterly and Westerly prospects did not yield significant assays, the geological setting remains highly prospective. Further drilling will be guided by upcoming down-hole EM survey results, petrographical thin section analyses, and geochemical interpretation of existing assay data.
On the corporate front, Galileo remains in a strong financial position with ~$10 million in cash as at 30 June 2025, providing flexibility and strength to execute our exploration strategy.
Since listing in 2018, Galileo has stayed true to its strategy: efficient capital deployment, a technical focus, and a commitment to building long-term shareholder value through discovery.
As we enter Financial Year 2026, Galileo carries strong momentum, a pipeline of high-quality targets, and a clear roadmap for unlocking value. With tightening global supply, growing industrial demand, and rising interest in ethically sourced PGEs, our timing and positioning at Norseman couldn’t be more advantageous.
On behalf of the Board, thank you for your ongoing support. We look forward to updating you as we continue to explore, discover, and build value across our unique project portfolio.
Yours faithfully,

1) The Norseman Project prospective for palladium-platinum-nickel-copper-cobalt-rhodium deposits similar to the existing JORC compliant Callisto resource.; and
-
2) The Fraser Range Project with exploration tenements prospective for nickel-copper-cobalt deposits.
During the financial year, the Group’s main activities were exploration at the Norseman Project through a series of aircore and RC drilling campaigns and other exploration activities.
While Galileo has been focused primarily on developing its Norseman project, the Company also advanced exploration at its Fraser Range Project with a geological review, the development of high priority electromagnetic (EM) sulphide targets, and drill testing of these targets during the period.

CORPORATE
Galileo is well funded to continue exploration with approximately $9.74 million in cash as of 30 June 2025. This puts the Company in a secure position to undertake all planned drilling and exploration programs.
In May 2025[1] Galileo agreed to an extension of its Lithium Farm-In and Joint Venture Agreement with MinRes (previously announced 3 June 2024).
The Key Terms of the changes to the Lithium Exploration JVA were as follows:
-
An extension of six (6) months to 30 November 2025 for the payment of the Tranche 2 cash consideration of $2.5 million to Galileo.
-
The addition of two (2) years to the Earn-In Period to 7th June 2030 for MinRes to expend $15 million to meet the Earn-In Requirement to increase its stake in the Lithium Exploration JVA Tenements from their current interest of 30% to 55%.
-
Removal of Prospecting Licences from the Tenements in the Lithium Exploration JVA.
Other than the above changes, all other material terms of the Lithium Exploration JVA remained the same.
During the period, Galileo advised the address for the Company’s registered office and principal place of business and telephone number changed to 945 Wellington St, West Perth, WA, 6005 +61 8 6285 5622 respectively.[2]
Galileo’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held on 24th October 2024 at which all resolutions proposed were passed by Poll without amendment.[3]
EXPLORATION
Norseman Project Resource
During the period, Galileo conducted extensive drilling campaigns across the Norseman project with the main focus being drilling for Platinum Group Elements (PGEs) at the Mission Sill target and north of the Callisto prospect.
Galileo undertook three drilling campaigns including two aircore drill programs targeting prospective contact zones over three kilometres of strike at the Mission Sill prospect, infill drilling of anomalous results, as well as new drilling along strike within the 12km Mission Sill prospective trend. An RC drilling program targeting PGEs and nickel/copper targets north of the Callisto prospect was also completed.
Mission Sill Prospect Drilling
The Mission Sill prospect is a mafic-ultramafic sill complex that runs parallel to the Callisto sill unit. It is located approximately 3km to the east of the southern end of the Callisto host sill and approximately 8km from the Callisto deposit itself.
Geological prospect mapping at a 1:10,000 scale has accurately identified the basal position of the Mission Sill over a 10km strike length. This zone has not been targeted for palladium or platinum with previous drilling at the prospect restricted to shallow laterite drilling, base metal targets, and PGE drilling within the centre of the sill. Positive signs for the fertility of the Mission Sill have previously been recorded from the central part of the Mission Sill which was drilled by Galileo prior to the discovery of Callisto in 2022.

Following the Callisto discovery, and the increased understanding of the regional geology, the basal unit of the Mission Sill is now recognised as being prospective for Callisto style sulphide deposits.
Approximately 5,300m of aircore drilling in 157 drill holes was undertaken in the November 2024 drill campaign. This program targeted prospective contact zones within just three kilometres of strike at the Mission Sill prospect.[4] Two prospective zones at the Mission Sill are of particular interest – the basal contact unit of the sill complex and the upper contact zone between ultramafic and gabbroic intrusive rock units. (Figure 3)

33 drill holes returned anomalous results based on four metre composite samples.[5] Additional sampling was then undertaken using one metre sampling through selected anomalous zones. These assays further defined the peaks within anomalous zones and assisted with deeper drill targeting and the search for the source of the regolith results.[6]
The maximum average rhodium assay through anomalous zones was 41ppb[7] . Rhodium occurs with palladium and platinum at the Callisto deposit and rhodium analysis will be utilised as a potential vector towards basement mineralisation at the Mission Sill. A selection of anomalous results is shown in Table 1 from ASX announcement dated 18/02/25.

In late February 2025, Galileo reported commencement of an aircore drilling program prioritising infill drilling on lines one through four (Figure 3) as a follow up to previously announced results.[8]
Additional drilling was also undertaken to the north and south within the extensive 12km strike length of the Mission Sill prospect. The program consisted of approximately 4,500m of drilling across 159 holes.
Initial assays from the first four drill lines showed anomalous responses consistently on every drill line along the eastern contact zone and on the two southern drill lines along the western contact zone.[9] (See Figure 4)
A selection of anomalous results are shown below with the full list included as Appendix 1 of ASX announcement dated 3/04/25.
-
4m @ 1.19 g/t 3E from 28m (NAC516) within 12m @ 0.83 g/t 3E
-
1m @ 0.68 g/t 3E from surface to blade refusal (end of hole – NAC546)
-
12m @ 0.40 g/t 3E from surface (NAC547)
-

Follow up one metre samples from selected geochemically anomalous zones were completed using a higher quality fire assay for quantitative palladium, platinum and gold analyses.[12] Peak assays of 4.11 g/t palladium and 2.47 g/t platinum were reported over one metre from 29m depth in NAC617.
NAC617 occurs at the end of an aircore drill line and is open to the east. This area is now a focus for further aircore drilling aiming to identify the extent of the anomalism prior to deeper RC drill testing. Figure 6 shows the location of the NAC617 target zone and a larger map of the same prospect is displayed in Figure 7. Figure 8 shows the location of an additional three target zones which have been confirmed through one metre sample assays.

Norseman Project JORC Resource
Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate
In October 2023[14] , Galileo reported the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (Resource) for the Callisto deposit, the first deposit of its type identified in Australia. The nature of mineralisation at Callisto is analogous in style to the Platreef deposits found in South Africa. The resources at the South African Platreef occur as discrete deposits within an extensive strike zone and the style of mineralisation at that location supports the belief that the Norseman project can also host additional mineralisation beyond the established Callisto resource.
The maiden Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate, which was defined from a total of 147 drill holes (38,695m), was calculated as:
- 17.5 Mt @ 1.04g/t 4E, 0.20% Ni, 0.16% Cu (2.3g/t PdEq or 0.52% NiEq) for contained metal of 585,000oz 4E, 35kt Ni and 28kt Cu (~1.27Moz PdEq or ~91,000t NiEq). See Table 1 for MRE details.
Approximately 8Mt (46%) of the resource is inside the indicated category with a 2.5g/t PdEq grade or 0.58% NiEq (metal content within indicated resource category of ~639,000oz PdEq or ~45,800t NiEq).
About 95% of the resource is constrained by pit optimisation and remains open at depth with potential for additional resource delineation. The resource is modelled as continuous sulphide mineralisation within a single geological domain.
14 Refer to ASX announcement dated 2nd October 2023
15
GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
The resource estimate was undertaken by Cube Consulting, using data gathered from drilling activities following the discovery hole in May 2022 up until July 2023.
Further JORC details of the maiden mineral resource are outlined on page17.
Figure 10 –– Resource classification showing mineralisation continuing at depth.
==> picture [463 x 452] intentionally omitted <==
The Callisto deposit is an undercover discovery found after a review of two drill holes which targeted a geophysical EM conductor. While the source of the conductor was a sulphidic sediment it was noted that the drill holes had passed through a band of weakly disseminated sulphide mineralisation in the overlying ultramafic intrusive rock. Recognition of the mineralised intervals, the interpretation of increasing metal grades to the east, and understanding the context of the potential mineralisation within the broader regional ultramafic geology provided the drill target which led to the discovery.
A regional interpretation of prospective rock units shows that the mafic-ultramafic sill complex which hosts the Callisto deposit is continuous over 20km of strike length. The potential occurrence of additional mineralisation within the host rock complex is now the focus of intense exploration activity with drill programs and geophysical IP surveys aiming to advance the project toward new discoveries.
16
GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
The mineralised sill at Callisto has an average strike length of 300m and dips to the east over 800m length down dip with average true thickness of approximately 40m. At the western end, the mineralisation lies 75m below the surface where it dips shallowly to the east for ~650m before steeply dipping at the eastern end. The lower limit of mineralisation is 650m below the surface.
JORC Mineral Resource Estimate

Notes to Table 2:
Based on metallurgical test work completed to date, the Company believes that Callisto’s mineralisation is amenable to concentration using a conventional crushing, milling and flotation process, and has Reasonable Prospects for Eventual Economic Extraction.
Metallurgical recovery assumptions used for metal equivalent value calculations were: Pd – 82%, Pt – 78%, Au – 79%, Rh – 63%, Ni – 77%, Cu – 94%
Metal price assumptions, based on 12 month calculated averages to 11th September 2023, were used for metal equivalent values: Pd – US$1,600/oz, Pt – US$975/oz, Au – US$1,870/oz, Rh – US$9,420/oz, Ni - US23,800/t, Cu – US$8,420/t. Based on metallurgical test work completed to date, the Company believes that all metals included in the metal equivalent calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.
North Callisto RC Drill Program
Drill targets were based on the results of downhole EM surveying[15] , updated IP survey data[16] , and geochemical/geological targeting. All targets were within the Callisto North prospect between one and five kilometres north of the Callisto deposit.
Downhole EM surveying undertaken on drill hole NRC493 (section in Figure 12) provided one of the drill targets for the RC program. NRC493 was originally drilled into a high chargeability/low resistivity geophysical anomaly defined by pole-dipole IP surveying. The geology intersected in drill hole NRC493 was unable to explain the geophysical response while intersecting a thick zone of ultramafic rock interpreted to be a unit of the same prospective sill which hosts the Callisto nickel-copper-PGE deposit.
Data from the down hole EM survey showed a highly conductive response which was modelled with a plate size of 202m strike length, 432m down dip extent, and a conductance of 16,129S. The model dips to the southeast and passes approximately 100m beneath the drill hole (Figure 12).

Another prospective result from the May 2024 round of drilling was seen in NRC498 with anomalous PGEs (Figure 13 section) and this was followed up in the September quarter’s drill program.
Prospective results received from NRC496 drilled on section line 6,449,700 (Figure 11) showed a large zone of anomalous mineralisation had been identified in ultramafic rock which broadly matched the top of a change in chargeable response and a change in geology to the west. The follow up target zone for the drill program at this location was the ultramafic/mafic contact which is a separate zone of interest from the basal position which hosts the Callisto mineralisation.
In October 2024[17] , Galileo announced results from the RC drill campaign which targeted EM conductors, IP geophysical chargeable zones, and geochemical targets. Several drill intersections in ultramafic and mafic rocks (the potential host units for economic mineralisation) contained anomalous palladium and platinum results.
NRC502 was drilled as a follow up to geochemical anomalies identified in NRC463 and NRC496 (Figure 11). This target is at a separate geological position to that of the Callisto deposit. Anomalous palladium and platinum in this area is occurring at the contact between ultramafic and mafic units within the host rock sill. This is a different geological target to Callisto style mineralisation which occurs at the base of the ultramafic sill. These results indicate the potential for additional styles of palladium-platinum mineralisation beyond that known to occur at the Callisto deposit and are an excellent sign for future exploration within the Norseman area.
NRC501 was drilled 450m north along strike from NRC502 and confirmed the presence of anomalous palladium/platinum at the ultramafic/gabbro interface (see location plan map in Figure 14).
NRC499 and NRC500 were drilled into a conductive target identified through downhole electro-magnetic (DHEM) surveying[18] . Both drill holes intercepted disseminated sulphides in ultramafic rock units overlying sediments, the same geological configuration as that seen at the Callisto deposit. This corresponded to the interpreted prospective basal position of the ultramafic units, however the accompanying sulphides did not contain anomalous levels of economic mineralisation.
Overall drill results from the program demonstrate the value of targeting geophysical anomalies (EM & IP) as these can accurately identify the geological positions where economic metals may occur.

Drill hole NRC505 was directed at a geophysical Induced Polarisation (IP) chargeable zone and as a follow up to NRC498 which intersected anomalous palladium and platinum19 (Figure 13). NRC505 intersected weakly disseminated sulphides within an interpreted structure with anomalous palladium and platinum over eight metres. These results support the use of IP surveying to define prospective sulphide zones within the Norseman project area.

Fraser Range Project (67% GAL / 33% Creasy Group JV)
While the priority for Galileo during the period was exploration at Norseman, the Company continued to progress exploration work at its Fraser Range project.
The Company completed a comprehensive review of EM data and potential drill targets for the Fraser Range project during the period.[20] Four new targets were identified to complement the existing Easterly Prospect. All of the new targets were based on a combination of geophysical EM surveying and geological interpretation of
20 See ASX announcement dated 28th January 2025

GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
magnetic data. No basement outcrop exists in the area and these targets represented a new generation of undercover prospects.
Four prospects were drill tested with 1,446m of RC drilling. Drilling rates were impeded by running sand in cover rock with five drill holes completed and two holes abandoned. All completed drill holes were drilled to an appropriate depth to test the specified EM targets. No significant assays were returned from the first round of drilling with any follow up drilling to be determined by the results of down hole EM surveying.
Location of targets drill tested are shown in Figures 14 and 15 with the modelled EM parameters contained in Table 3.
25WERC002 was drilled to 241m at the Westerly prospect with 25EARC001 and 25EARC002 drilled to 235m and 318m respectively at the Easterly prospect. Each of these drill holes intersected prospective Fraser Range mafic intrusive rocks interspersed with meta-sediments. Varying degrees of graphite occurred in the metasediments close to the modelled EM conductors. Downhole EM surveying is planned at these prospects to look for off-hole conductors that may be related to sulphide mineralisation.

25K2RC001 was drilled to 276m at the K2 prospect and 25K3RC002 was drilled to 318m at the K3 prospect. Both drill holes intercepted graphitic meta-sediments, paragneiss containing minor pyrrhotite, and minor mafic rock units. The graphitic intervals matched the modelled EM conductors and no further work is currently planned at these prospects.

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited)
The Directors of Galileo Mining Ltd present the Remuneration Report (‘the Report”) for the Group for the year ended 30 June 2025 (“FY25”). This Report forms part of the Directors’ Report and has been audited as required by section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
Key management personnel disclosed in this report
For the purposes of this Report, key management personnel (KMP) of the Group are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Group, directly or indirectly, including a director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company, and its subsidiaries.
Details of key management personnel: Brad Underwood (Managing Director/Chairman) Noel O’Brien (Non-Executive Director) Cecilia Camarri (Non-Executive Director) Resigned 31 July 2025 Mathew Whyte (Non-Executive Director and Company Secretary)
Remuneration Philosophy
The performance of the Group depends upon the quality of its Directors and Executives. To prosper, the Group must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled directors and KMP.
To this end Galileo aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibility so as to align the interests of executives with those of shareholders and to ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
Remuneration and nomination issues are handled at the full Board level. Due to the small number of directors and KMP no separate committee has been established for this purpose.
Board members, as per groupings detailed below, are responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements.
In order to maintain good corporate governance, the Non-executive Directors assume responsibility for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Executive Directors of the Group. The
26
GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
Executive Directors in turn are responsible for determining and reviewing the compensation arrangements for the Non-executive Directors.
The assessment considers the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of KMPs on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high-quality Board and executive team.
Independent external advice is sought from remuneration consultants when required, however no advice has been sought during the year ended 30 June 2025. The Corporate Governance Statement provides further information on the Company’s remuneration governance.
Remuneration structure
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of Non-executive Director and Executive Director’s remuneration is separate and distinct.
A. Non-executive Directors’ remuneration
Objective
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Group with the ability to attract and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders.
Structure
The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at commercial market rates for comparable companies for their time, commitment, and responsibilities.
On appointment to the Board, all non-executive directors sign a letter of appointment. The letter summarises the Board policies and terms including remuneration, relevant to the office of director.
The constitution and the ASX Listing rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to time by shareholders at general meeting.
Non-executive directors receive a fixed fee inclusive of superannuation contributions. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. Subject to approval by shareholders, Non-executive directors’ remuneration may also include an incentive portion consisting of Options and Performance Rights, which are granted for the same reasons and objectives and on the same terms as Options granted to Executive Directors as outlined in Section B below. To this end Non-executive Directors are also entitled to participate in Galileo’s Long Term Incentive Plan (LTI Plan).
Effective 1 July 2024 Non-executive director remuneration was increased by $5,000 per annum to a total remuneration of $59,750 per annum each (including superannuation). The increase was to recognise nonexecutive director performance, industry awareness and skills, and additional duties including Audit and Risk committee membership.
The remuneration of Non-executive Directors for the year ended 30 June 2025 is detailed in the table in Section C of this Report.
B. Executive Directors’ remuneration
Objective
The Group aims to reward Executive Directors with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the Group and so as to:
-
Align the interests of Executive Directors with those of shareholders.
-
Link rewards with the strategic goals and performance of the Group
-
Ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
27
GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
Structure
In determining the level of remuneration paid to Executive Directors, the Board considers the activities of the Group and available benchmarks.
An employment contract has been entered into with the Executive Director of Galileo. Details of this contract are provided in Section C of this Report.
Remuneration consists of the following key elements:
-
Fixed remuneration
-
Variable Remuneration
The proportion of fixed remuneration and variable remuneration is established for the Executive Director by the Board. The table in Section B of this Report details the fixed and variable components (%) of the Executive Directors of Galileo.
Fixed Remuneration
The level of fixed remuneration is set as a cash salary plus superannuation contributions so as to provide a base level of remuneration which is both appropriate to the position and is competitive in the market.
Variable remuneration
No variable remuneration was paid to the Executive director Mr Underwood during the Financial Year ended 30 June 2025 (2024: $75,000 (plus superannuation of $8,250))
Long Term Incentives (LTI) grants to executives are delivered in the form of Options or Performance Rights
The table in this section provides details of Options or Performance Rights granted and the value of equity instruments granted, exercised, and lapsed during the year.
Relationship between remuneration and the Group’s performance
As the Group is a listed exploration Group, measuring performance is difficult. The most meaningful measure of internal performance is on goals that have an exploration focus.
In considering the Group’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Board has regard to the following indices in respect of the current financial year and the previous financial years:
| 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net Profit/(Loss) | (1,160,880) | 3,374,077 | (1,533,057) |
| Share price (as at year end) | $0.115 |
$0.205 | $0.56 |
Use of remuneration consultants
No remuneration consultants were engaged or used for the Group during the year ended 30 June 2025.

Details of the amount of the premium paid in respect of the insurance policies is not disclosed as such disclosure is prohibited under the terms of the contract.
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 Group against a liability incurred as such by an officer.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
The financial report of Galileo Mining Ltd for the year ended 30 June 2025 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of directors on 18 September 2025.
Galileo Mining Ltd is a Company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange.
The address of the registered office is 945 Wellington Street, West Perth WA 6005.
The Group’s principal activity during the year was mineral exploration. Major exploration activities during the period are outlined in the Review of Operations as contained in the Directors’ Report.
2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES INFORMATION
- (a) Basis of preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except as otherwise disclosed.
For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Group is a for-profit entity.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and the accounting policies below have been consistently applied to all of the years presented unless otherwise stated. The financial report is for the Group consisting of Galileo Mining Ltd and its subsidiaries.
- (b) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Galileo Mining Ltd (Galileo) and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2025 (the Group).
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
-
Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);
-
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
-
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
-
The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee:
-
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
-
The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the statement of comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
38
GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
-
De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary
-
De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests
-
De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
-
Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
-
Recognises the fair value of any investment retained
-
Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss
-
Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method.
(c) Compliance with IFRS
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, compromising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.
- (d) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations
Standards and Interpretations applicable to 30 June 2025
In the period ended 30 June 2025, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Group and effective for the current reporting period. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact on the Group’s accounting policies.
Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted
The Directors have also reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted as at 30 June 2025. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted on the Group.
(e) Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where the following conditions are satisfied:
-
the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and
-
at least one of the following conditions is also met:
-
the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or
-
exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the balance date reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.
Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore, studies, exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of depreciation and amortisation of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities. General and administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where they are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which it has
39
GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
been allocated being no larger than the relevant area of interest) is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in previous years.
Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance is then reclassified to development.
(f) Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
- (g) Contributed equity
Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Group.
Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.
- (h) Share-based payment transactions
The Group provides benefits to employees (including directors and executives) of the Group and to third parties in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees and third parties render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (‘equity-settled transactions’).
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using an appropriate option pricing model.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Galileo Mining Ltd (‘market conditions’).
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (‘vesting date’).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition.
Until an award has vested, any amounts recorded are contingent and will be adjusted if more or fewer awards vest than were originally anticipated to do so. Any award subject to a market condition is considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition is fulfilled, provided that all other conditions are satisfied.
40
GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, other than forfeiture, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings/loss per share.
For equity-settled share-based payment transactions to parties other than employees, the entity shall measure the goods or services received, and the corresponding increase in equity, directly, at the fair value of the goods or services received, unless that fair value cannot be estimated reliably, If the entity cannot estimate reliably the fair value of the goods or services received, the entity shall measure their value, and the corresponding increase in equity, indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.
(i) Significant Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions
The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities with the next annual reporting period are:
- (i) 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.
Factors which could impact the future recoverability include the level of proved, probable and inferred mineral resources, future technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, this will reduce profits and net assets in the period in which this determination is made.
Acquisition costs in relation to mineral tenements are capitalised and carried forward provided the rights to tenure of the area of the interest are current and such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development, or by sale, or where exploration and evaluation activities have not, at balance date, reached a stage to allow a reasonable assessment regarding the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
- (ii) Share-based payment transactions
The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using either the Trinomial or Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equitysettled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. Refer to note 21 for further information.

In June 2024, Galileo completed a Lithium farm-in and joint venture agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of Mineral Resources (ASX: MIN) (MinRes) (Lithium Exploration JVA) for the sale of a 30% interest in all lithium rights held by Galileo on the Norseman JVA tenement package for total A$7.5 million cash consideration. Tranche 1 of the sale consideration of $5 million was received in Financial Year 2024.
In May 2025, Galileo extended its Lithium Exploration JVA with MinRes. The Key Terms of the changes to the
Lithium Exploration JVA are as follows:
-
An extension of six (6) months to 30 November 2025 for the payment of the Tranche 2 cash consideration of $2.5 million to Galileo.
-
The addition of two (2) years to the Earn-In Period to 7th June 2030 for MinRes to expend $15 million to meet the Earn-In Requirement to increase its stake in the Lithium Exploration JVA Tenements from their current interest of 30% to 55%.
-
Removal of Prospecting Licences from the Tenements in the Lithium Exploration JVA.
Other than the above changes, all other material terms of the Lithium Exploration JVA remain the same.
MinRes and Galileo have formed a 30% / 70% unincorporated joint venture for the exploration and, if deemed warranted mining of, lithium on the Norseman JVA tenements. MinRes can increase its stake to 55% by sole funding an additional $15 million (earn-in obligation) of exploration expenditure on the Tenements over the 6 years up to June 2030 (earn-in period). The Callisto PGE-nickel deposit, on M63/671, is not a part of the exploration JV agreement.
During the earn-in period, until MinRes satisfies the earn-in obligation, MinRes is deemed to hold 50.1% of the percentage share for the purposes of votes on the JV management committee. If MinRes does not satisfy the earn-in obligation within the earn-in period, the JV will continue on the basis of MinRes holding 30% and Galileo holding 70% share; and Galileo will become the manager of the JV management committee.
MinRes has the further ability to elect to increase its stake to 70% by sole funding expenditure through to a Decision to Mine. Upon MinRes earning a 70% interest, Galileo must elect to either remain in Joint Venture and contribute to Development Costs or convert its interest into a royalty.

(a) Exploration expenditure commitments
The Group has certain obligations to perform minimum exploration work and to expend minimum amounts of money on such work on mining tenements. These obligations may be varied from time to time subject to approval and are expected to be fulfilled in the normal course of the operations of the Group. These commitments have not been provided for in the financial report. Due to the nature of the Group’s operations in exploring and evaluating areas of interest, it is difficult to accurately forecast the nature and amount of future expenditure beyond the next year. Expenditure may be reduced by seeking exemption from individual commitments, by relinquishing of tenure or by new joint venture arrangements. Expenditure may be increased when new tenements are granted or joint venture agreements amended. The minimum expenditure commitment on the tenements is shown below.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
The Group manages its exposure to a variety of financial risks: market risk (interest rate risk), credit risk, price risk and liquidity risk in accordance with specific approved Group policies.
Primary responsibility for the identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of the risks identified.
The Group uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. These include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate risk and assessment of market forecast for interest rate. The Group manages credit risk by only dealing with recognized, creditworthy, third parties and liquidity risk is monitored through the development of future rolling cash flow forecasts.
Interest rate risk
The Group’s current exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relate primarily to cash assets rates and is managed by the Board approved investment policy. This policy defines maximum exposures and credit ratings limits.
The following table summarises the impact of reasonably possible changes on interest rates for the Group at 30 June 2024. The sensitivity is based on the assumption that interest rate changes by 100 basis points with all other variables held constant. The 100 basis points sensitivity is based on reasonably possible changes over a financial year, using the observed range of actual historical rates for the preceding 3 year period. The analysis is performed on the same basis for the comparative period.
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk arises from higher or lower interest income from cash and cash equivalents. The Parent’s main interest rate risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and other assets with variable interest rates.

No other matters or circumstances have occurred subsequent to balance date that have or may significantly affect the operations or state of affairs of the Group in subsequent financial years.
25. EXPLORATION AGREEMENTS
MinRes Lithium Farm-in JV Agreement
In June 2024, Galileo completed a Lithium farm-in and joint venture agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of Mineral Resources (ASX: MIN) (MinRes) (Lithium Exploration JVA) for the sale of a 30% interest in all lithium rights held by Galileo on the Norseman JVA tenement package for total A$7.5 million cash consideration. Tranche 1 of the sale consideration of $5 million was received in Financial Year 2024.
In May 2025, Galileo extended its Lithium Exploration JVA with MinRes. The Key Terms of the changes to the Lithium Exploration JVA are as follows:
-
An extension of six (6) months to 30 November 2025 for the payment of the Tranche 2 cash consideration of $2.5 million to Galileo.
-
The addition of two (2) years to the Earn-In Period to 7th June 2030 for MinRes to expend $15 million to meet the Earn-In Requirement to increase its stake in the Lithium Exploration JVA Tenements from their current interest of 30% to 55%.
-
Removal of Prospecting Licences from the Tenements in the Lithium Exploration JVA.
Other than the above changes, all other material terms of the Lithium Exploration JVA remain the same.
MinRes and Galileo have formed a 30% / 70% unincorporated joint venture for the exploration and, if deemed warranted mining of, lithium on the Norseman JVA tenements. MinRes can increase its stake to 55% by sole funding an additional $15 million (earn-in obligation) of exploration expenditure on the Tenements over the 6 years up to June 2030 (earn-in period). The Callisto PGE-nickel deposit, on M63/671, is not a part of the exploration JV agreement.
During the earn-in period, until MinRes satisfies the earn-in obligation, MinRes is deemed to hold 50.1% of the percentage share for the purposes of votes on the JV management committee. If MinRes does not satisfy the earn-in obligation within the earn-in period, the JV will continue on the basis of MinRes holding 30% and Galileo holding 70% share; and Galileo will become the manager of the JV management committee.
MinRes has the further ability to elect to increase its stake to 70% by sole funding expenditure through to a Decision to Mine. Upon MinRes earning a 70% interest, Galileo must elect to either remain in Joint Venture and contribute to Development Costs or convert its interest into a royalty.
The Tranche 1 payment of $5 million under the Agreement (of the $7.5 million total consideration) was received in June 2024[[1]] . The Tranche 2 payment of $2.5 million under the Agreement is due prior to 30 November 2025. If Tranche 2 is not paid to Galileo by 30 November 2025 the Lithium JVA will automatically terminate and the Tranche 1 payment is not refundable.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Members of Galileo Mining Ltd
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Galileo Mining Ltd (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2025, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2025 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
-
(b) 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 Auditor’s 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 Board’s 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.
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.

|---|---|---|
| In accordance with AASB 6_Exploration for and Evaluation_ | − | Our procedures included but were not |
| of Mineral Resources, the Group capitalises exploration | limited to the following: | |
| and evaluation expenditure. | − | We obtained an understanding of the key |
| processes associated with |
||
| Our audit focussed on the Group’s assessment of the | management’s review of the carrying | |
| carrying amount of the capitalised exploration and | amount of the capitalised exploration and | |
| evaluation expenditure asset, due to this asset being the | evaluation expenditure asset; | |
| most significant asset of the Group. | − | We considered the Directors’ |
| assessment of potential indicators of | ||
| impairment; | ||
| − | We obtained evidence that the Group | |
| has current rights to tenure of its areas of | ||
| interests; | ||
| − | We examined the exploration and | |
| evaluation budget for the year ending 30 | ||
| June 2025 and discussed with |
||
| management the nature of planned | ||
| ongoing activities; | ||
| − | We substantiated a sample of |
|
| capitalised expenditure to underlying | ||
| support; and | ||
| − | We examined the disclosures made in | |
| the financial report. |
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2025, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s 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.
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:
- (a) the financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 ; and
61
==> picture [165 x 50] intentionally omitted <==
- (b) the consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , and
for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of:
-
(a) the financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and
-
(b) the consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct 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.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with 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 Group’s 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 directors’ 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 Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s 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 auditor’s 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.
62
==> picture [165 x 50] intentionally omitted <==
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 auditor’s 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.
