REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Ongoing work at Gidgee has confirmed the prospectivity for VMS-style mineralisation. This work has included lithogeochemical and alteration analysis of multi-element geochemical data throughout the project area, and reconnaissance ground work over a number of areas.
The lithogeochemical work has confirmed the potential for VMS mineralisation, with the results outlining possible large scale alteration systems, with styles and zonation typical of those seen in VMS districts.
Of particular interest are the under-drilled tenements that include the Gravel Pit and Gossans Galore prospects, which have returned very promising results to date. These prospects exhibit geological, geophysical and geochemical signatures that can be considered indicative of VMSmineralised systems.
Reconnaissance is ongoing over the Bungarra tenements, which were recently acquired by Gateway from Legend Mining. Preliminary thoughts indicate that this area too is prospective forVMS mineralisation; however the prospective stratigraphy has been disrupted due to the intrusion of the Bungarra Intrusive Complex. Rock chip sampling has delineated separate zinc and copper trends.
Programmes of work for planned aircore and reverse circulation drilling programmes over Gateway and joint venture tenements have been approved by the Department of Mines and Petroleum. Approved drilling includes 2,975m of RC and 6,780m of aircore.
Work at the Cowra Project in NSW has included a review of all data, and Gateway is currently looking to attract a new JV partner.
No work was completed over the Surprise EPMs.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GATEWAY MINING LIMITED
Report on the Half-year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Gateway Mining Limited which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2011, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity, the statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information and the directors’ declaration.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report
The directors of Gateway Mining Limited are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such controls as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410: Review of an Interim Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of Gateway Mining Limited’s financial position as at 31 December 2011 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of Gateway Mining Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Matters Relating to Electronic Publication of the Audited Financial Report
This review report relates to the financial report of Gateway Mining Limited for the half-year ended 31 December 2011 included on the website of Gateway Mining Limited. The directors of the company are responsible for the integrity of the website and we have not been engaged to report on its integrity. This review report refers only to the subject matter described above. It does not provide an opinion on any other information which may have been hyperlinked to or from the financial report. If users of the financial report are concerned with the inherent risk arising from the publication on a website, they are advised to refer to the hard copy of the reviewed financial report to confirm information contained in this website version of the financial report.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act was provided to the directors of Gateway Mining Limited on the date of this review report.

-
giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 31 December 2011 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
-
complying with AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
