CHAIRMAN’S REVIEW
Dear Shareholders,
It is my pleasure to present the Annual Report of Greenwing Resources Ltd.
Greenwing is progressing a three tiered and complimentary strategy in the sectors of:
-
Lithium : Capitalising on the Company’s extensive lithium experience to build and develop a portfolio of lithium assets.
-
Graphite : Continuing to develop the Graphmada Mining Complex, growing the Mineral Resource, and capitalising on significant progress made to date, inclusive of a successful global sales record.
-
Advanced Materials : Developing specialty carbon and advanced material products from the Company’s high quality natural flake concentrates.
Greenwing has made substantial progress in these three areas during the year.
During the year we completed the acquisition of Andes Litio which has an option to acquire up to 100% of the San Jorge Lithium Brine Project in Argentina, a greenfields project which is located in the lithium triangle and is surrounded by a number of large sale lithium resources.
Initial early-stage exploration has confirmed the presence of lithium, and at the time of writing the maiden drilling program is planned to be undertaken in the coming months. This is an exciting prospect, and we look forward to updating shareholders in due course.
The Company has extensive lithium experience, with Non-Executive Director James Brown and myself have been involved in developing lithium assets from exploration into production, obtaining funding, negotiating offtake agreements and bringing in strategic partners.
Since the end of the year, Greenwing was pleased to announce a strategic funding transaction with NIO Inc. enabling Greenwing to accelerate its exploration program at San Jorge Lithium Project and aligning NIO as the Company’s potential joint venture and offtake partner.
NIO is a pioneer and a leading company in the premium smart electric vehicle market and is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, with secondary listings in Hong Kong and Singapore. NIO designs, develops, jointly manufactures and sells premium smart electric vehicles, driving innovations in nextgeneration technologies in autonomous driving, digital technologies, electric powertrains and batteries.
We are very encouraged by this validation of the prospectively of this project, and the Company, by a reputable, sophisticated and independent third party.
Looking to our graphite asset, Greenwing has successfully produced graphite concentrates to specification across all grades from fine flake through to super jumbo graphite. These premium concentrates have been sold across all major markets, without penalty or rejection.
Our exploration program in ongoing, including a significant diamond drilling program executed during the year. The exploration undertaken continue to yield results with 212% increase in the mineral resource to 61.9Mt @ 4.5% FC as announced on 11 July 2022[1] .
This growing mineral resource and strong anticipated demand and pricing are key factors in progressing the aim of a larger scale mining operation being undertaken at Graphmada.
1 Reported in accordance with the 2012 Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (‘the JORC Code 2012’) released to the ASX 12 July 2022 "Mineral Resource Update 212% increase in Graphite Resource at Graphmada Mining Complex”.

ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [104 x 37] intentionally omitted <==
UBS[2] recently forecast a long-term graphite price for fine flake graphite (94-95% C, - 100 mesh, FOB China) of USD$725/t and large flake graphite (94-95% C, +80 mesh, FOB China) of USD$950/t. These prices are materially higher than the prices Greenwing were achieving in Graphmada’s final quarter of production in late 2019 (prior to operations being placed on care and maintenance due to the worldwide pandemic).
The Company also continued its R&D efforts with its partner, Swinburne University, on graphite sourced from Graphmada. This work has achieved the characterisation of graphene as defined by International Organization for Standardization. Greenwing is the only ASX listed company to report that its graphene has been produced to this high standard in an ISO 9001 facility. This milestone is a key step in the Company’s plans to create a patentable and environmentally friendly process to produce advanced materials such as expandable graphite and graphene.
Greenwing continues to progress towards its goal of becoming a supplier of critical minerals and advanced materials into a rapidly growing green economy. The Company sees enduring fundamentals for lithium, graphite and advanced materials, with the world is at a point of carbon inflection, and Greenwing has a coherent strategy that will add significant shareholder value.
Lastly, I want to thank all shareholders for your ongoing support.
Yours sincerely,

COMPANY OVERVIEW
The Company is seeking to become a diversified producer and developer of critical mineral concentrates to capitalise on the compelling market fundamentals for lithium, graphite and advanced materials.
The Group has interests in lithium projects, currently holding the Millie’s Reward spodumene project in Madagascar and since year end has acquired Andes Litio SA which has the right to earn up to 100% of the San Jorge Lithium Brine project in Argentina, a greenfields project in the prolific Lithium Triangle which accounts for over half of the world’s annual lithium production.
The Group is also a producer of industrial mineral concentrates from its 100% owned Graphmada Large Flake Graphite Mine. The Graphmada Mine Complex, which is located in Madagascar, has 40year mining permits and 20-year landholder agreements in place. With all associated mining infrastructure and logistics in place, the mine produced and sold a range of graphite concentrates into multiple market segments during the 2020 financial year. Major markets for the Company included Europe under an offtake agreement, India, China and the United States.
The Group is also developing an advanced materials business with the Company entering into an agreement to develop specialty carbon composite technologies for the advanced materials sector in conjunction with Swinburne University of Technology.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The Company is a critical minerals and advanced materials business. It is developing the Graphmada Mining Complex in Eastern Madagascar and it is exploring for high-grade lithium mineralization at Millie’s Reward, also in Madagascar, and is commencing exploration at the San Jorge Lithium Brine Project in Argentina. In parallel, the Company seeks to develop Expandable Graphite and Graphene specialty carbon products and other advanced materials.
The principal activities of the Group during the year focused on the continued exploration and development, and care and maintenance activities relating to its graphite mine and other exploration and evaluation assets.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN STATE OF AFFAIRS
During the year, the Company acquired Andes Litio SA, which holds an option to acquire the San Jorge Lithium Brine Project located in Catamarca, Argentina.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Result for the financial year
Consolidated net loss after tax for the Group was $4,195,498 (2021: $6,277,075 loss).
Dividends
No dividends have been paid during the period and no dividends have been recommended by the Directors (2021: nil).
Material operational and financial results
Production
Greenwing made the decision in December 2019, to suspend mining and front-end processing at Graphmada at the end of December 2019, given a forecast of above average anticipated rainfall over the monsoon season, of a similar quantum to Q1 2019. In March 2020 operations were suspended following Madagascar closing its borders due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The mine remains under care and maintenance.
Exploration and development
Lithium
During the year the Company acquired Andes Litio SA, an entity which has the option to acquire up to 100% of the San Jorge Lithium Brine Project located in Catamarca, Argentina. The San Jorge Project consists of 15 granted Exploration Licenses (EL’s) covering some 36,000 hectares inclusive of the San Francisco Salar. Exploration commenced during the year, and a drilling program is proposed for 2023.
The Company also reviewed its Millie’s Reward lithium-in-spodumene project, with the intention to recommence field activities in FY2023.
Graphite
Greenwing continued its exploration and development activities during the year. The ongoing exploration program yielded a material upgrade in JORC Code (2012) Mineral Resource for the Graphmada Mining Complex of 212% to 61.9 million tonnes (Mt) of large flake graphite at 4.5% Total Graphitic Carbon in the Mineral Resource update released on 12 July 2022.
The Company continues to explore and develop Graphmada for large-scale mining and processing operations along with progressing feasibility studies for the expansion of operations, with a key focus on reducing operating costs and growing production to meet market demand at the lowest possible capital intensity.
The concentrates produced at Graphmada have the two main constituent properties for application to most advanced materials, being a large flake and clean concentrates. Greenwing is continuing with discussions with potential Joint Venture (JV) partners with a view to producing a range of advanced materials using Greenwing concentrates.
In addition, the Company has a research agreement with Swinburne University of Technology to advance carbon materials research and product development. During the year this work has achieved the characterisation of graphene as defined by International Organization for Standardization (“ISO standards”). Greenwing is the only ASX listed company to report that its graphene has been produced to this high standard in an ISO 9001 facility. This milestone is a key step
11
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [104 x 37] intentionally omitted <==
in the Company’s plans to create a patentable and environmentally friendly process to produce advanced materials such as expandable graphite and graphene.
Other exploration assets
The Company continued with care and maintenance activities relating to its Tasmanian exploration and evaluation assets. During the year, the Company signed an agreement to sell these assets which remains subject to the satisfaction of a number of customary conditions.
Capital raisings
In September 2021, 25.6 million shares were issued at a price of $0.24 per share, raising $6.15 million.
In addition, during the financial year, the Company issued 3 million shares valued at $0.75 million to the vendors of Andes Litio SA as partial consideration for the Company’s acquisition of Andes Litio.
COVID-19
On 25 March 2020, Greenwing announced the suspension of mining and production activities at the Graphmada Mining Complex for the foreseeable future with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in a myriad of restrictions being put in place by the Madagascan and other governments, including the movement of people and cargo.
Some activities have continued both in Madagascar and Australia in compliance with regulatory guidance including exploration drilling and related activities, progress on mine development and feasibility studies and mine maintenance.

Individuals may elect to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation. Bonus payments are at the discretion of the Board and are based on an executive’s performance. In addition, long term incentives are received through participation in the Greenwing Resources Ltd Employee Share and Option Plan.
The Board has resolved that Director’s fees for the Executive Director will be $125,000 per annum, effective 1 July 2021.
Valuation methodology
All remuneration paid to Directors and executives is valued at cost to the Group and expensed. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology and performance rights are valued using the Monte Carlo Simulation methodology. Both the options and performance rights are expensed over the vesting period.
Base salary
Executive remuneration is structured as a “total employment cost” package comprising cash, leave benefits and superannuation, and is reviewed annually with regard to competitiveness and performance. There are no guaranteed salary increases fixed in any senior executive contracts.
Greenwing Resources Ltd employee share loan scheme
There are no Employee Share Loans granted at reporting date.
Relationship between the remuneration policy and Group performance
The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders, Directors and executives. Two methods have been applied to achieve this aim, the first being a performance-based incentive based on performance milestones, and the second being the issue of options and shares to directors, executives and employees to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The performance milestones are set annually, with a certain level of consultation with key management personnel to ensure buy-in. The measures are specifically tailored to the area each individual is involved in and has a level of control over. The performance milestones target areas the Board believes hold greater potential for group expansion and profit, covering financial and non-financial as well as short and long-term goals. The level set for each performance milestone is based on the Group’s production plans and respective industry standards.
Performance in relation to the performance milestones is assessed annually, with bonuses being awarded depending on the degree to which the milestone has been achieved. Following the assessment, the performance milestones are reviewed by the Remuneration Committee considering the desired and actual outcomes, and their effectiveness in achieving the Group’s goals and shareholder returns. The performance milestones are then set for the following year.
16
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [104 x 37] intentionally omitted <==
During each year directors and executives of the Group may be issued with performance rights, options and shares. The Board considers that this is an appropriate way to attract persons of experience and ability to the Group; foster and promote loyalty by providing an incentive to remain in the Group’s employment for the long term; and to recognise the ongoing ability of key management personnel to contribute to the performance and success of the Group.
During the reporting period, the Company issued options to directors and executives.
Consequences of performance on shareholder wealth
In considering the Group’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Board have regard to the following indices in respect of the current financial year and the previous four (4) financial years:
| Item | 2022 | 2021 2020 2019 2018 |
|---|---|---|
| EPS (cents) Dividends (cents per share) Net (loss)/profit ($000’s) Shareprice($) |
(3.74) - (4,195) $0.20 |
(7.93) (22.5) (14.5) (11.0) - - - - (6,277) (12,628) (7,551) (4,448) $0.25 $0.15 $0.40 $1.45 |
EPS and Share price for the financial years preceding 2022 have been adjusted for the 50:1 share consolidation completed in July 2021.
Performance conditions linked to remuneration
The Group seeks to emphasise reward incentives for results and continued commitment to the Group through the provision of various cash bonus reward schemes, specifically the incorporation of incentive payments based on the achievement of performance milestones and continued employment with the Group.
The objective of the reward scheme is to both reinforce the short and long-term goals of the Group and provide a common interest between management and shareholders.
The satisfaction of the performance conditions are evidenced by execution of contracts or agreements and whole of Board assessment and approval. The Board does not consider that performance conditions should include a comparison with factors external to the Group at this time.
The performance related proportions of remuneration paid during the year based on these targets are included in the remuneration table, refer to page 20.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
1. General information and statement of compliance
These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Greenwing Resources Ltd (the “Company”) and its controlled entities (the “Consolidated Group” or “Group”). Greenwing Resources Ltd is the Group’s ultimate parent company (the “Parent entity”) and is a public company incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
Financial information of the parent entity, Greenwing Resources Ltd, is presented in Note 37.
The Group is a for profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.
The Financial Report was approved by the Board of Directors on 30 September 2022.
The consolidated general-purpose financial statements of the Group have 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. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards results in full compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.
2. Summary of accounting policies
Overall considerations
The significant accounting policies that have been used in the preparation of these financial statements are summarised below.
The financial statements have been prepared using the measurement bases specified by Australian Accounting Standards for each type of asset, liability, income and expense. The measurement bases are more fully described in the accounting policies below.
Basis of consolidation
At reporting date, the Company has seven subsidiaries, Graphmada Mauritius (registered in Mauritius), Graphmada SARL (registered in Madagascar), Limada SARL (registered in Madagascar), Critical Minerals USA LLC (registered in USA), Andes Litio SA (registered in Argentina), Bass Metal Holdings Pty Ltd and Critical Minerals Technologies Pty Ltd (both registered in Australia).
The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Parent Company and all of its subsidiaries as of 30 June 2022. The Parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the subsidiary. Three subsidiaries have a different reporting date other than 30 June, however they have provided financial information to allow the consolidated Group financial statements to be prepared based on a 30 June reporting date.
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
29
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [103 x 36] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on their respective ownership interests. There are no non-controlling interests in the Group during the year.
Business combinations
The Group applies the acquisition method in accounting for business combinations. The consideration transferred by the Group to obtain control of a subsidiary is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of assets transferred, liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group, which includes the fair value of any asset or liability arising from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred.
Assets and liabilities assumed are generally measured at their acquisition-date fair values.
Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian Dollars ($AUD), which is also the functional currency of the Parent Company. The functional currency of the Company subsidiaries Graphmada SARL, Graphmada Mauritius, Limada SARL, and Andes Litio SA is US Dollars being the currency which sales and material expenses are transacted. These subsidiary financial statements are translated into Australian Dollars in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards as detailed below.
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency, using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the re-measurement of monetary items at year end exchange rates are recognised in profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items are not retranslated at year-end and are measured at historical cost (translated using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value which are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined.
Foreign operations
In the Group’s financial statements, all assets, liabilities and transactions of Group entities with a functional currency other than the $AUD are translated into $AUD upon consolidation. On consolidation, all monetary assets and liabilities have been translated into $AUD at the closing rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary items are not retranslated at year-end and are measured at historical cost, these are translated into $AUD using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity have been treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated into $AUD at the closing rate at the date of acquisition. Income and expenses have been translated into $AUD at the average rate over the reporting period. Exchange differences are charged or credited to other comprehensive income and recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity. On disposal of a foreign operation the cumulative translation differences recognised in equity are reclassified to profit or loss and recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Segment reporting
Management currently identifies three service lines as the Group’s operating segments. These operating segments are monitored by the Group’s chief operating decision maker and strategic decisions are made on the basis of adjusted segment operating results.
In identifying its operating segments, management generally follows the Group’s service lines, which represent the main products and services provided by the Group. All inter-segment transfers are carried out at arm’s length prices.
30
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [103 x 36] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
The measurement policies the Group uses for segment reporting under the Accounting Standards are the same as those used in its financial statements, except those expenses relating to discontinuing operations (refer Note 9) are not included in arriving at the operating profit of the operating segments. In addition, non-current exploration and evaluation asset held for sale are assets which are not directly attributable to the business activities of any operating segment and are not allocated to a segment. There have been no other changes from prior periods in the measurement methods used to determine reported segment profit or loss.
Revenue and other income
Revenue arises from the sale of graphite concentrate.
To determine whether to recognise revenue, the Group follows a 5-step process:
-
Identifying the contract with a customer
-
Identifying the performance obligations
-
Determining the transaction price
-
Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations
-
Recognising revenue when/as performance obligation(s) are satisfied.
The Group enters into transactions with customers involving a range of the Group’s graphite concentrate specifications. The total transaction price for a contract is based on the relative stand-alone market selling prices determined by reference to the carbon content, the graphite mesh or flake size and the current international USD graphite price.
The Group recognises contract liabilities for consideration received in respect of unsatisfied performance obligations and reports these amounts as other liabilities on the statement of financial position. Similarly, if the Group satisfies a performance obligation before it receives the consideration, the Group recognises a receivable in its statement of financial position, depending on whether something other than the passage of time is required before the consideration is due.
Revenue is recognised either at a point in time or over time, when (or as) the Group satisfies performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services to its customers.
Sale of graphite concentrate
Sale of graphite concentrate is recognised when the Group has transferred control of the goods to the buyer, generally when the customer has taken undisputed delivery of the goods. This occurs when goods are physically collected from the Group’s premises by or on behalf of the customer, or when the sea container containing the goods to be exported have been sealed for customs export purposes.
Interest income
Interest is reported on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.
Other Income
Other income is recognised as and when it is receivable and has been recorded as part of other receivables if it has not yet been received.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses are recognised in profit or loss upon utilisation of the service or as incurred.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes all expenses directly attributable to the mining process as well as directly related production costs based on normal operating capacity. Costs of ordinarily interchangeable items are assigned using the first in, first out cost formula. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less any applicable selling expenses.

2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs
incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its useful life. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any measurement of lease liabilities.
The consolidated entity has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expenses to profit or loss as incurred.
Property, plant and equipment
Equipment is initially recognised at acquisition or manufacturing cost, including any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Group’s management.
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated through the straight-line distribution of cost over the estimated technical useful life of the asset which is the period which the Company expects the use of the asset.
The Group uses the units of production basis when depreciating specific assets which results in a depreciation charge proportional to the depletion of the anticipated remaining life of mine production. Each item’s economic life, which is assessed annually, has due regard to both its physical life limitations and to present assessments of economically recoverable reserves of the mine property at which it is located.
The useful lives used for depreciation and amortisation of assets included in property, plant and equipment are presented below:
-
Buildings and infrastructure: 5 to 25 years
-
Plant & equipment: 2 to 25 years
-
Motor vehicles: 3 to 5 years
Material residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
Gains or losses arising on the disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in profit or loss and other comprehensive income within other income or other expenses.
Exploration and evaluation
Exploration and evaluation activity involves the search for mineral resources, the determination of technical feasibility and the assessment of commercial viability of an identified resource. Exploration and evaluation activity includes:
-
Researching and analysing historical exploration data
-
Gathering exploration data through geophysical studies
-
Exploratory drilling and sampling
-
Determining and examining the volume and grade of the resource
-
Surveying transportation and infrastructure requirements
-
Conducting market and finance studies
Licence costs paid in connection with a right to explore in an existing exploration area are capitalised and amortised over the term of the permit. Once the legal right to explore has been obtained, exploration and
32

2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
evaluation expenditure is charged to profit or loss and other comprehensive income as incurred if the Group concludes that a future economic benefit is more likely than not to be realised. These costs include directly attributable employee remuneration, materials and fuel used, surveying costs, drilling costs and payments made to contractors.
In evaluating whether the expenditures meet the criteria to be capitalised, several different sources of information are used. The information that is used to determine the probability of future benefits depends on the extent of exploration and evaluation that has been performed.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. Exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised in the year in which it is incurred when 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:
-
(i) 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; and
-
(ii) exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the end of the reporting period 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.
Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
A regular review for impairment is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
Mine properties
Mine properties includes capitalised development expenditure, rehabilitation costs and accumulated amortisation.
Development expenditure
Development expenditure incurred by or on behalf of the consolidated entity is accumulated separately for each area of interest in which economically recoverable resources have been identified. Such expenditure comprises costs directly attributable to the construction of a mine, the related infrastructure and expenditure transferred from the capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure phase.
Development expenditure also includes goodwill paid on a business combination relating to a mining operation. It is calculated as the excess of the sum of: (a) fair value of consideration transferred, (b) the recognised amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquire, and (c) acquisition-date fair value of any existing equity interest in the acquiree, over the acquisition-date fair values of identifiable net assets.
Rehabilitation costs
Costs of site restoration are provided for over the life of the facility from when exploration commences and are included in the costs from that stage. Site restoration costs include obligations relating dismantling and removing mining plant, reclamation, waste dump rehabilitation and other costs associated with restoration and rehabilitation of the site. Such costs have been determined using estimates for current costs and currently legal requirements and technology.
Any changes in the estimates are accounted for on a prospective basis. In determining the costs of site restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration due to community expectations and future legislation. Accordingly, the costs have been determined on the basis that the restoration will be completed within one year of abandoning the site.
Amortisation of Development expenditure and rehabilitation costs
Amortisation is charged using the units-of-production method, with separate calculations being made for each area of interest. The units-of-production basis results in an amortisation charge proportional to the depletion of
33

2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
proved and probable reserves. Mine properties are tested for impairment in accordance with the following policy on Impairment Testing of Non-Financial Assets.
Impairment testing of non-financial assets
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired.
For impairment assessment purposes, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are largely independent cash inflows (cash-generating units). As a result, some assets are tested individually for impairment and some are tested at cash-generating unit level.
All other individual assets or cash-generating units are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use. To determine the value-in-use, management estimates expected future cash flows from each cash-generating unit and determines a suitable interest rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The data used for impairment testing procedures are directly linked to the Group’s latest approved budget, adjusted as necessary to exclude the effects of future reorganisations and asset enhancements. Discount factors are determined individually for each cash-generating unit and reflect management’s assessment of respective risk profiles, such as market and asset-specific risks factors.
Any impairment loss is charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash-generating unit. All assets are subsequently reassessed for indications that an impairment loss previously recognised may no longer exist. An impairment charge is reversed if the cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount exceeds its carrying amount.
Financial instruments
Recognition, initial measurement and derecognition
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument and are measured initially at fair value adjusted by transaction costs, except for those carried at fair value through profit or loss, which are measured initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities are described below.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.
Classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets
Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with AASB 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable).
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:
-
amortised cost
-
fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
-
equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
-
debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
Classifications are determined by both:
-
The entities business model for managing the financial asset
-
The contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets
34
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [103 x 36] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, finance income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables, which is presented within other expenses.
Subsequent measurement financial assets
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not designated as FVPL):
-
they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets and collect its contractual cash flows
-
the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
Financial assets that are held within a different business model other than ‘hold to collect’ or ‘hold to collect and sell’ are categorised at fair value through profit and loss. Further, irrespective of business model financial assets whose contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest are accounted for at FVPL. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments, for which the hedge accounting requirements apply. The Group has no financial assets at fair value through profit or loss at the reporting date.
Equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Equity FVOCI)
Investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading are eligible for an irrevocable election at inception to be measured at FVOCI. Under Equity FVOCI, subsequent movements in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss. Dividend from these investments continue to be recorded as other income within the profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents return of capital. The Group has no equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income as at the reporting date.
Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Debt FVOCI)
Financial assets with contractual cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest and held within a business model of collecting the contractual cash flows and selling the assets are accounted for at debt FVOCI. The Group has no debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income as at the reporting date.
Any gains or losses recognised in OCI will be reclassified to profit or loss upon derecognition of the asset.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group uses forward-looking information to recognise expected credit losses and considers a broad range of information when assessing credit risk and measuring expected credit losses. This includes past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability of the future cash flows of the instrument. Instruments that are captured under this requirement includes trade and other receivables.
In applying this forward-looking approach, a distinction is made between:
-
financial instruments that have not deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition or that have low credit risk (‘Stage 1’) and
-
financial instruments that have deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition and whose credit risk is not low (‘Stage 2’).
35
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [103 x 36] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
‘Stage 3’ would cover financial assets that have objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date.
‘12-month expected credit losses’ are recognised for the first category while ‘lifetime expected credit losses’ are recognised for the second category.
Measurement of the expected credit losses is determined by a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses over the expected life of the financial instrument.
Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
The Group’s financial liabilities include borrowings and trade and other payables.
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss.
Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments).
All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument’s fair value that are reported in profit or loss are included within finance costs or finance income.
Income taxes
Tax expense recognised in profit or loss and other comprehensive income comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Current income tax assets and/or liabilities comprise those obligations to, or claims from, the Australian Taxation Office and other fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods, that are unpaid at the reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the financial statements. Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. However, deferred tax is not provided on the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability unless the related transaction is a business combination or affects tax or accounting profit. Deferred tax on temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures is not provided if reversal of these temporary differences can be controlled by the Group and it is probable that reversal will not occur in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Group has a right and intention to set off current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority.
Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognised as a component of tax income or expense in profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except where they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with other short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Non-current assets and liabilities classified as held-for-sale and discontinued operations
When the Group intends to sell a non-current asset or a group of assets (a disposal group), and if sale within 12 months is highly probable, the asset or disposal group is classified as “held for sale” and presented separately in
36
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [103 x 36] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
the statement of financial position. Liabilities are classified as “held for sale” and presented as such in the statement of financial position if they are directly associated with a disposal group.
The Group has determined that its Tasmanian Non-Current Exploration and Evaluation asset held for sale shall be designated in this category.
Assets classified as “held for sale” are measured at the lower of their carrying amounts immediately prior to their classification as held for sale and their fair value less costs to sell. However, some “held for sale” assets such as financial assets or deferred tax assets, continue to be measured in accordance with the Group's accounting policy for those assets. Once classified as “held for sale”, the assets are not subject to depreciation or amortisation.
Profit or loss from discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the entity that either has been disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, and:
-
represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations;
-
is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or
-
is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale
Profit or loss from discontinued operations, including prior year components of profit or loss, are presented in a single amount in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. This amount, which comprises of the post-tax profit or loss of discontinued operations and the post-tax gain or loss resulting from the measurement and disposal of assets classified as held for sale.
The disclosures for discontinued operations in the prior year relate to all operations that have been discontinued by the reporting date for the latest period presented.
The Group has determined that its Tasmanian Non-Current Exploration and Evaluation asset held for sale shall be designated in this category.
Lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be easily determined, the consolidated entity’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit and loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non–monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled wholly with 12 months of reporting date are recognised as provisions in respect of employee services up to reporting date. They are measured at the amounts that are expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
Equity and reserves
Share capital represents the fair value of shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs associated with the issuing of shares are deducted from share capital, net of any related income tax benefits.
Other components of equity include:
(a) Foreign currency translation reserve which records the exchange differences arising from translation of financial statements of foreign operations into Australian dollars;
(b) the Share option reserve which comprises costs associated with share-based payments (see Share-based employee remuneration); and
(c) equity portion of convertible notes.
Retained earnings include all current and prior period retained profits. All transactions with owners of the parent are recorded separately within equity.
Share-based employee remuneration
The Group operates equity-settled share-based remuneration plans for its employees. None of the Group's plans feature any options for a cash settlement.
All goods and services received in exchange for the grant of any share-based payment are measured at their fair values. Where employees are rewarded using share-based payments, the fair values of employees' services are determined indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. This fair value is appraised at the grant date and excludes the impact of non-market vesting conditions (i.e.: profitability and sales growth targets and performance conditions).
All share-based remuneration is ultimately recognised as an expense in profit or loss and other comprehensive income with a corresponding credit to share option reserve. If vesting periods or other vesting conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest.
Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of share options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognised in the current period. No adjustment is made to any expense recognised in prior periods if share options ultimately exercised are different to that estimated on vesting.
Upon exercise of share options, the proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to share capital.
Transactions with parties other than employees
The Group enters into share based payment transactions where the Group receives goods or services as consideration for its own equity instruments (including shares or options). The goods or services received or acquired in a share-based payment transaction are recognised when the entity obtains the goods or as the services are received. Accordingly, the entity recognises an increase in equity in an equity settled share-based payment transaction. When recognising share-based payments arising from grant of an equity instrument, an entity considers the effect of any vesting conditions. The Group measures the goods and services received, and the corresponding increase in equity at the fair value of the goods or services received, unless that fair value cannot be reliably estimated, at which time the Group measures the fair value indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.
In the current year the Group issued shares to acquire Andes Litio SA (refer to note 13). The consideration paid in the form of equity instruments has been accounted for as a share based payment by reference to the fair value of the asset acquired. Shares to be issued as part of the deferred consideration are recorded in the share based payment reserve as at 30 June 2022.

2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
Provisions, contingent assets and liabilities
General
Provisions for legal disputes, onerous contracts or other claims are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of: (a) a past event; (b) it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required from the Group; and (c) amounts can be estimated reliably. Timing or amount of the outflow may still be uncertain.
Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation, based on the most reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. Provisions are discounted to their present values, where the time value of money is material.
Any reimbursement that the Group can be virtually certain to collect from a third party with respect to the obligation is recognised as a separate asset. However, this asset may not exceed the amount of the related provision.
In those cases where the possible outflow of economic resources as a result of present obligations is considered improbable or remote, no liability is recognised.
Rehabilitation provision
Mine rehabilitation costs will be incurred by the Group either while operating, or at the end of the operating life of, the Group’s facilities and mine properties. The Group assesses its mine rehabilitation provision at each reporting date. The Group recognises a rehabilitation provision where it has a legal and constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of obligation can be made. The nature of these restoration activities includes dismantling and removing structures; rehabilitating mines and tailings dams; dismantling operating facilities; closing plant and waste sites; and restoring, reclaiming and revegetating affected areas.
The obligation generally arises when the asset is installed or the ground/environment is disturbed at the mining operation’s location. When the liability is initially recognised, the present value of the estimated costs is capitalised by increasing the carrying amount of the related mining assets to the extent that it was incurred as a result of the development/construction of the mine.
Over time, the discounted liability is increased for the change in present value based on the discount rates that reflect current market assessments and the risks specific to the liability. The periodic unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as part of finance costs.
Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Value Added Tax (VAT)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST and VAT, except where the amount of GST and VAT incurred is not recoverable from the Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST and VAT is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST and VAT.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST and VAT components of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
Research and development
Research costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Development costs are capitalised when it is probable that the project will be a success considering its commercial and technical feasibility; the consolidated entity is able to use or sell the asset; the consolidated entity has sufficient resources and intent to complete the development; and its costs can be measured reliably.

==> picture [103 x 36] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
Included within other income is the research and development tax incentive. Research and development tax incentive is recognised in the period in which the related expenses were incurred.
Comparative figures
Where required by accounting standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
Convertible notes
The Group’s convertible notes are treated as a compound financial instrument. A split accounting approach is adopted, where the debt component and the conversion option are accounted for separately. The debt component is initially recognised at its fair value. It is then amortised over its life using the effective interest method.
Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies
When preparing the financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses is provided below. Actual results may be substantially different.
Provision for restoration and rehabilitation
The Group assesses its mine rehabilitation provision annually. Significant estimates and assumptions are made in determining the provision for mine rehabilitation as there are numerous factors that will affect the ultimate liability. These factors include estimates of the extent, timing and costs of rehabilitation activities, technological changes, regulatory changes, cost increases as compared to inflation rates, and changes in discount rates. These uncertainties may result in future actual expenditure differing from the amounts currently provided.
Share-based payment transactions
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees and suppliers 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 the Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled 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.
Estimation of useful lives of assets
The Group’s management determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. Management will increase the depreciation and amortisation charge where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or it will write off or write down technically obsolete or nonstrategic assets that have been abandoned or sold.
Lease term
The lease term is a significant component in the measurement of both the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Judgement is exercised in determining whether there is reasonable certainty that an option to extend the lease or purchase the underlying asset will be exercised, or an option to terminate the lease will not be exercised, when ascertaining the periods to be included in the lease term. In determining the lease term, all facts and circumstances that create an economical incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option, are considered at the lease commencement date. Factors considered may include the importance of the asset to the consolidated entity’s operations; comparison of terms and conditions to prevailing market rates; incurrence of significant penalties; existence of significant leasehold improvements; and the costs and disruption to replace the asset. The consolidated entity reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise

2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
an extension option, or not exercise a termination option, if there is a significant event or significant change in circumstances.
Exploration and evaluation
The application of the Group’s accounting policy for E&E expenditure requires judgement to determine whether future economic benefits are likely from either future exploitation or sale, or whether activities have not reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. In addition to applying judgement to determine whether future economic benefits are likely to arise from the Group’s E&E assets or whether activities have not reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves, the Group has to apply a number of estimates and assumptions. The determination of an Australasian Joint Ore Reserves Committee Code (JORC) resource is itself an estimation process that involves varying degrees of uncertainty depending on how the resources are classified (i.e., measured, indicated or inferred). The estimates directly impact when the Group defers E&E expenditure. The deferral policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future events and circumstances, particularly, whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after expenditure is capitalised, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of expenditure is unlikely, the relevant capitalised amount is written off to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period when the new information becomes available.
Impairment
In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash-generating unit based on expected future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future operating results and the determination of a suitable discount rate.
Ore reserve and mineral resource estimates
Ore reserves and mineral resource estimates are estimates of the amount of ore that can be economically and legally extracted from the Group’s mining properties. Such reserves and mineral resource estimates and changes to these may impact the Group’s reported financial position and results, in the following way:
-
The carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets, mine properties, plant and equipment and goodwill (mine properties – development asset) may be affected due to changes in estimated future cash flows
-
Depreciation and amortisation charges in the statement of financial profit or loss and other comprehensive income may change where such charges are determined using the units of production method, or where the useful life of the related assets change
-
Provisions for rehabilitation and environmental provisions may change where reserve estimate changes affect expectations about when such activities will occur and the associated cost of these activities
The Group estimates its ore reserves and mineral resources based on information compiled by appropriately qualified persons relating to the geological and technical data on the size, depth, shape and grade of the ore body and suitable production techniques and recovery rates. Such an analysis requires complex geological judgements to interpret the data. The estimation of recoverable reserves is based upon factors such as estimates of foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, future capital requirements and production costs, along with geological assumptions and judgements made in estimating the size and grade of the ore body. As the economic assumptions used may change and as additional geological information is produced during the operation of a mine, estimates of ore reserves and mineral resources may change.
The Group estimates and reports mineral resources in line with the principles contained in the 2004 and 2012 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (the JORC Code).
Provision for impairment of Inventory
The Group estimates the value of equipment, spares and consumables that are on hand and that can be used in the production of graphite. Judgement is exercised by the Group in determining whether these parts will be realised through future production.

2. Summary of accounting policies (continued)
Accounting for the acquisition of Andes Litio SA
During the year, Greenwing Resources acquired Andes Litio SA, an entity domiciled in Argentina which has an option agreement to acquire 100% of the San Jorge Lithium Brine Project. Judgement was required to be exercised in determining this transaction was to be accounted for as an asset acquisition, rather than a business combination, due to the transaction not meeting the definition of a “business” in accordance with AASB 3 Business Combinations.
Trreatment of uncertain tax positions
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Graphmada SARL, has been advised by the Madagascan tax authorities that it is reviewing tax lodgements for 2017-2018 and separately 2019-2021.
Subsequent to year end, an assessment was received from the tax authorities claiming a potential tax liability of AUD$222,734 (ARIARY 618,704,753) relating to the 2017 and 2018 years. The Company does not agree with some of the interpretations applied to reach this position and is in the process of challenging this assessment.
In relation to the 2019 - 2021 years, these reviews are in the preliminary stage, and the Company has not yet received any formal notice and accordingly is not able to quantify the potential financial outcome at this time. It is noted that the level of operating and financial activity has reduced significantly during this period following the Graphmada mine ceasing processing in December 2019, which was then followed the onset of COVID-19.
No provision has been recorded in the year ended 30 June 2002. The directors have concluded that it is probable the Company’s view will be accepted by the taxation authority and as such no liability has been recognised, which is consistent with the tax treatment in the lodged filings which will be defended.
Graphmada has VAT receivable of AUD$769,618 as at 30 June 2022 (refer note 12). As VAT refunds have not been received since the on-set of COVID-19, this amount has been fully impaired as at 30 June 2022.
3. Changes in accounting policies
There are no other new standards and interpretations in issue which are mandatory for 30 June 2022 reporting periods that would be expected to have a material impact on the Group in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
4. Going concern
The financial report for the year ended 30 June 2022 has been prepared based on going concern, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
During the year, the Group reported a loss after tax of $4,195,498 (2021 loss: $6,277,075). Net cash operating cash outflows were $1,882,420 (2021 outflow: $1,040,121). In addition, current assets were $2,996,654 and current liabilities were $5,408,659 resulting in a net current asset deficit of $2,412,005 (2021: net current asset surplus $585,433). Prima facie, these factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty relating to going concern.
The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon one or more of the following:
-
the ability of the Group to raise sufficient additional capital in the future;
-
its ability to achieve a financial return from its subsidiary Graphmada Mauritius;
-
reducing its level of expenditure through farm outs or joint ventures; and
-
disposing of assets.
If the Group is unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and or settle its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business and at amounts different from those stated in the financial report. The Directors will continue to monitor the capital requirements of the Group on a go forward basis and will include additional capital raisings in future periods as required.

5. Segment reporting
Management currently identifies three service lines as the Group’s operating segments. These operating segments are monitored by the Group’s chief operating decision maker and strategic decisions are made based on adjusted segment operating results. All inter-segment transfers are carried out at arm’s length prices.
Factors which assist management in identifying reportable segments are broadly based on where project expenditure is to be spent in accordance with the Group’s strategic outlook.
The measurement policies the Group uses for segment reporting under the Accounting Standards are the same as those used in its financial statements, except expenses relating to discontinuing operations are not included in arriving at the operating loss of the operating segments. There have been no other changes from prior periods in the measurement methods used to determine reported segment profit or loss.

Deferred tax asset not recognised is $20.6 million (2021: $20.1 million) which is represented by $17.0 million (2021: $16.6 million) from Australian based operations carried forward tax losses and undisclosed tax losses of $3.6 million (2021: $3.5 million) from overseas subsidiaries based on prior years lodged tax returns and the accounting losses for the periods to 30 June 2022.
The deferred tax balances have been recognised at the current tax rate of 25% (2021: 26%).
The deductible temporary differences and tax losses do not expire under current tax legislation. Madagascan Tax Losses expire after a period of 5 years. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can utilise the benefits from.
9. Loss attributable to discontinued operations
The Company has signed an agreement to sell its Tasmanian exploration assets which is subject to a number of customary conditions for an agreement of this type. The disposal group was fully impaired during 2017 and is, therefore, carried at nil value having been recognised as Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Assets Held for Sale in the Statement of Financial Position. During the current and prior year, care and maintenance expenses relating to the disposal group have been eliminated from profit or loss from the Group’s continuing operations and are shown as a single line item on the face of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income (see loss after tax from discontinued operations ).

The weighted average numbers of ordinary shares used in the earnings per share calculated has been updated to reflect the 50:1 share consolidation approved on 16 July 2021 as required by AASB 133 Earnings Per Share. There is no dilutive potential for ordinary shares as the exercise of options to ordinary shares or conversion of convertible notes into ordinary shares would have the effect of decreasing the loss per ordinary share and would therefore be non-dilutive.

All amounts are short-term and non-interest bearing. The net carrying value of trade receivables is considered a reasonable approximation of fair value. As at reporting date, there were no trade receivables that were past due, but not impaired. In determining the recoverability of a trade or other receivable, the Group performs a risk analysis considering the type and age of the outstanding receivable and the creditworthiness of the counterparty. Information regarding credit, foreign exchange and liquidity risk exposure is set out in Note 30.

13. Acquisitions
On 14 September 2021, the Group acquired 100% of the equity instruments of Andes Litio SA. Andes Litio has an option agreement to acquire up to a 100% interest in the San Jorge Lithium Brine Project. The consideration payable is as follows:
payable is as follows: |
|
|---|---|
| First milestone payment – settled in July 2021 Second milestone payment – settled in September 2021 Third milestone payment – settled in September 2022 Acquisition of Andes Litio (refer note 18) |
$ |
| 375,000 | |
| 375,000 | |
| 720,000 | |
| 1,470,000 |
The acquisition has been accounted for as an asset acquisition rather than a business combination, due to the entity not meeting the definition of a “business” in accordance with AASB3 Business Combinations. Consideration paid in the form of equity instruments to date (first and second milestone payments) has been recorded in issued capital. Deferred consideration payable (third milestone payment) has been accounted for as a share-based payment and recorded in the share-based payments reserve. The third milestone payment was subject to shareholder approval prior to issue which was received on 28 June 2022, and the share were subsequently issued on 27 September 2022.
The acquisition of Andes Litio has resulted in a significant increase to the carrying value of assets as recognised as exploration and evaluation assets. Refer to Note 18.
The purchase agreement provides that contingent consideration of up to $2,000,000 in shares may be payable in further milestone payments of up to $1,000,000 for each payment dependent on:
-
achieving an inferred mineral resource (in accordance with the 2012 edition of the JORC Code or equivalent) of lithium (stated as Lithium Carbonate Equivalent tonnes) of 250,000 tonnes at an Li grade of 200mg/L; and
-
achieving a measured and indicated mineral resource JORC report of Lithium (stated as Lithium Carbonate Equivalent tonnes) of 200,000 tonnes at an Li grade of 200mg/L.
The contingent consideration will be paid if the above milestones are achieved. This has been disclosed as a contingent liability as at 30 June 2022. Refer to Note 34.

Carry forward exploration and evaluation expenditure
The recovery of the costs of exploration and evaluation expenditure carried forward is dependent upon the discovery of commercially viable mineral and other natural resource deposits and their subsequent development and exploitation or alternatively their sale.
Exploration and evaluation assets held for sale
The Tasmanian assets held for sale are fully impaired and carried at nil value having been previously recognised as Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Assets Held for Sale in the Statement of Financial Position.
Impairment and write-off
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. Management regularly evaluates the recoverability of exploration and evaluation assets.

20. Impairment testing of non-current assets
In accordance with the Group’s accounting policies and processes, the Group performs its impairment assessment annually at 30 June. Non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting period to determine whether there is an indication of impairment.
When indicators of impairment exist, a formal estimate of the recoverable amount is made. External and internal indicators of impairment as at 30 June 2022 included;
-
the mine being in care and maintenance whilst further exploration is undertaken;
-
increased expected future costs of production; and
-
under-utilisation of the processing plant.
Due to the indicators above, the Group assessed the recoverable amounts of its major Cash-Generating-Unit (“CGU”), relating to the mining operations.
a) Impairment testing
i) Methodology
Impairment is recognised when the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount being the value in use of the CGU has been estimated using the discounted cashflows method based on the Group’s recoverable minerals.
Value in use is estimated based on discounted cash flows using market-based commodity price, estimated quantities of recoverable minerals, production levels, operating costs and capital requirements detailed in the Company’s Life of Mine (“LOM”) plan. The 2022 LOM plan utilises an estimated 6-year production timeframe based on the expansion of production to 40,000 tonnes of saleable concentrates per annum, utilising 100% Measured and 60% Indicated Mineral Resources estimated in accordance with the JORC Code 2012. No Inferred Mineral Resources were utilised in LOM planning.
Significant judgements and assumptions are made by the Group to determine value in use. This includes assessing variable key assumptions such as market prices, cost structures, production utilisation and capacity, available minerals and discount rates. Any change in these variable assumptions can cause adverse changes in one or more of the assumptions used to estimate value in use.

20. Impairment testing of non-current assets (continued)
ii) Key assumptions
The table below summarises the key assumptions used in the 30 June 2022 carrying value assessments. Comparison to the prior period has been provided.
| Assumptions | Unit | 2022 (2026-2043) |
2021 (2022-2027) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Projected average graphite price | US$/ton | 1,077 | 868 |
| Projected average C1 costs1 | US$/ton | 469 | 404 |
| Pre-Tax discount rate (%) | % | 14.8 | 14.8 |
| Mineral resource (M&I only)2 | Contained Graphite Tonnes (000’s) |
1,263 | 207 |
| Production capacity per annum | Tonnes (000’s) | 20 – 403 | 20 – 403 |
| Production start date | 2026 | 2024 | |
| Production end date | 2043 | 2027 |
Note 1: C1 costs represents the cash cost of running the mining operation in Madagascar. These are production and local administration costs and excludes royalties, taxation, capital expenditure and exploration costs.
Note 2: The Company continues to undertake drilling programs with the intention of materially increasing its Mineral Resource. The Contained Graphite only includes Measured and 60% of Indicated Mineral Resources.
Note 3: The Production Capacity increase would require a substantial investment by the Company before 40,000t annual production capacity could be achieved
Commodity prices
Commodity prices are estimated with reference to external, independent market forecasts and reviewed at least annually. The price applied is conservative and has taken into account observable market data.
Discount rate
The future cash flows of the CGU are discounted by the estimated real after tax weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), pursuant to the Capital Asset Pricing Model. The denominal pre-tax WACC has been derived from comparable company analysis, in addition to the WACC rate of the group’s mining operations being the primary CGU.
Production activity and operating and capital costs
LOM production activity and operating and capital cost assumptions are based on the Group’s latest five-year budget and expansion studies. Discounted cash flows include expected cost improvements and sustaining capital requirements. Estimated production is assumed consistent with the capacity constraint of the proposed Process Plant taken into account while assuming a constant recovery rate.
Resources and reserves
Mineral resource tonnes were based on the Group’s JORC 2012 compliant Mineral Resource Statement detailed on page 6.
iii) Impacts
Due to the recoverable amount of the Group’s mining operations CGU being more than the estimated carrying amount, no impairment charge was required for the year ending 2022 (2021: nil):
| Description Note |

| 9,469,059 9,469,059 7,607,027 7,607,027 |
Based on current assumptions, the recoverable amount is estimated to be $88.4 million.

20. Impairment testing of non-current assets (continued)
b) Sensitivity analysis
Variations in any key assumptions may result in a change to the estimated recoverable amount, indicating an impairment to non-current assets.
The changes to estimated key assumptions would have the following approximate impact on the recoverable amount of the CGU in its functional currency that has been subject to impairment in the 30 June 2022 statutory accounts:
accounts: |
|
|---|---|
| Assumption changes | 2022 Effecton recoverable amount$ |
| US $100 per tonne increase in graphite price | 26,000,000 |
| US $100 per tonne decrease in graphite price | (26,000,000) |
| 1% increase in the discount rate | (4,800,000) |
| 1% decrease in the discount rate | 11,100,000 |
| 5% increase in operating costs | (6,300,000) |
In addition to the above, the level of production activity is also a key assumption in the determination of recoverable amount. Should the Group recognise decreases/increases in processing capacity, changes in recoverable amount estimates may arise. Due to the number of factors that could impact production activity, assessment to sensitivity has not been determined for these factors.
The sensitivities above assume specific assumption moves are in isolation, whilst all other assumptions are held constant. A change in one of the assumptions may accompany a change in another assumption.
21. Trade and other payables

Other payables are recognised when the Group has identified a present obligation from the result of past events. These amounts include employee payment obligations, professional fees and statutory obligations.
Due to the short-term nature of these payables, their carrying value is assumed to approximate their fair value. Trade payables and other payables are non-interest-bearing and are normally settled on 30 to 60-day terms. For other terms and conditions relating to related party payables refer Note 31. Information regarding credit, foreign exchange and liquidity risk exposure is set out in Note 30.

22. Borrowings (continued)
On 15 March 2021, shareholders of the Group approved the amendment of the issue terms of convertible notes. The amendments approved the extension of the maturity date to 30 June 2023 and reduced the interest rate from 15% per annum to 12% per annum effective from 31 March 2021. Interest payments may be paid at the Group’s election in ordinary shares issued at a 30-day VWAP of trading in the Group’s shares. The conversion terms were amended to be convertible from one note to one share into 0.032 ordinary shares (on a post consolidation basis) per Convertible Note converted (an effective conversion price of $0.25) at any time, at Noteholder’s election.
The Group’s convertible notes are treated as a compound financial instrument. A split accounting approach is adopted, where the debt component and the conversion option are accounted for separately. The debt component is initially recognised at its fair value. It is then amortised over its life using the effective interest method.

26. Issued capital
Capital management
For the purpose of the Group’s capital management, capital includes issued capital, and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a strong credit rating and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximise the shareholder’s value.
Management controls the capital of the Group by monitoring performance against budget to provide the shareholders with adequate returns and ensure the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. The Group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.
Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues. There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Group since the prior year. There are no externally reported capital requirements.
The Group monitors capital on the basis of the carrying amount of equity plus debt (if any) less cash and cash equivalents as presented on the face of the statement of financial position.
The amounts managed as capital by the Group for the reporting periods under review are summarised as follows:
| Total equity Cash and cash equivalents Capital Total equity Borrowings Overall financing Capital-to-overall financing ratio |

29. Share-based payments
The following share-based payment arrangements existed at 30 June 2022.
(i) Greenwing Resources Ltd Employee Share and Option Plan (ESOP)
The Greenwing Resources Ltd Employee Share and Option Plan (“ESOP” or “Plan”) was approved by shareholders at an annual general meeting held on 30 November 2010. The directors of the Group administer the Plan and in their absolute discretion determine to whom the securities will be offered, the number to be offered and any performance criteria in relation to the options or performance rights issued under the Plan.
Options or performance rights may not be issued to a Director (or associate) or employee except where the relevant shareholder approval is provided pursuant to the Corporations Act 2001 and ASX Listing Rules. No consideration is payable by an eligible person for a grant of an option or a performance right, unless the board decides otherwise.
Subject to the rules of the Plan and to ASX Listing Rules, the Group (acting through the Board) may offer options or performance rights to any eligible person at such times and on such terms as the Board considers appropriate. Options issued under the Plan may be exercised or vest at any time during the period commencing on the issue date and ending no later than five years from the date of issue.
Performance rights granted will only vest upon satisfaction of the performance condition and during the period that the performance condition was met. Options or performance rights which have vested and have been issued under the Plan will automatically lapse in three months from the date of departure or such longer period as the board determines in the event that an eligible person either resigns voluntarily from employment with the Group or is dismissed in certain circumstances, unless otherwise agreed by the Board.
Options or performance rights issued under this Plan carry no dividend or voting rights.
On vesting of performance rights, shares will automatically be issued to the eligible person subject to compliance with the Group’s Policy for Trading in Group Securities and the insider trading provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. Unless otherwise provided in the invitation to receive performance rights, no amount shall be payable by the eligible person on the automatic exercise of performance rights.
Set out below are summaries of options granted under the plan:

30. Financial risk management
(i) Financial risk management policies
The Group is exposed to various risks in relation to financial instruments. The Group’s financial instruments consist of at call and short term deposits with banks, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, and borrowings.
The Group’s risk management is coordinated at its headquarters, in close cooperation with the Board of Directors, and focuses on actively securing the Group’s short to medium-term cash flows by minimising the exposure to financial markets. Long-term financial investments are managed to generate lasting returns.
It is the Group’s policy that no trading in derivatives for speculative purposes may be undertaken. Currently, the Group does not apply any form of hedge accounting. The Group does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes nor does it write options. The most significant financial risks to which the Group is exposed are described below.
(ii) Financial risk exposures and management
The main types of risks affecting the Group are market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
(a) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risks: foreign currency, interest rate risk and commodity price risk. The Group’s financial instruments affected by market risk include deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and accrued liabilities.
Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group has transactional currency exposures that arise from sales or purchases in currencies other than the respective functional currencies. The Group manages this risk by matching receipts and payments in the same currency and monitoring movements in exchange rates.
The Group’s transactions are usually carried out in either $AUD, $US-Dollars ($USD) and Malagasy Ariary (MGA). Exposures to currency exchange rates arise from:
-
The Group’s overseas trade receivables which are primarily denominated in $US-Dollars ($USD),
-
VAT receivable which are denominated in MGA,
-
Trade and other payables are denominated in either $USD or MGA.
-
The Group may also hold cash balances in $USD and MGA.
Foreign currency sensitivity
The following table demonstrates the Groups sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in the Australian Dollar against the relevant foreign currencies and the impact on the reported loss for the year. 5% represents management’s assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 5% change in foreign currency rates.
| Year ended 30 June 2022 +/- 5% Increase/(decrease) in $A/$US exchange rate +/- 5% Increase/(decrease) in $A/MGA exchange rate Year ended 30 June 2021 +/- 5% Increase/(decrease) in $A/$US exchange rate +/- 5% Increase/(decrease) in $A/MGA exchange rate |
Loss Equity $ $ |

63
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2022
==> picture [103 x 36] intentionally omitted <==
30. Financial risk management (continued)
If the AUD had strengthened against the $USD, or MGA, by 5% then this would have increased the reported loss by the above amounts.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of change in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s cash deposits. The Group’s convertible notes issued have a fixed interest rate and therefore have no exposure to the risk of change in market interest rates.
Interest rate sensitivity
Interest rate sensitivities have not been included in the financial report as the changes in the loss before tax due to changes in interest rate is not material to the results of the Group.
Commodity price risk
Commodity price risk arises from the sale of Graphite. The Group manages this risk arising from future commodity sales through sensitivity analysis, cash flow management and forecasting. The Group currently does not engage in the use of derivative financial instruments such as hedging.
Commodity price sensitivity
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a 10% increase and decrease in the Graphite price, with all other variables held constant. 10% represents management’s assessment of the possible change in the Graphite price.
| Loss | Equity | |
|---|---|---|
| $ | $ | |
| Year ended 30 June 2022 | ||
| +/- 10% Increase/(decrease) in graphite price | +/- 864 | +/- 864 |
| Year ended 30 June 2021 | ||
| +/- 10% Increase/(decrease) in graphite price | +/- 1,914 | +/- 1,914 |
(b) Liquidity risk
Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
As at 30 June 2022, the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities have contractual maturities (including interest payments where applicable) as summarised below:
| Current | Current | Non-current | Non-current | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | Within 6 | 6 to 12 |

This compares to the maturity of the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities in the previous reporting period as follows:

|---|---|

|
| 805,467 - 4,328,796 - |
(c) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to this risk for various financial instruments, for example by granting receivables to customers and placing deposits, etc. The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at the reporting date, as summarised below:
| Classes of financial assets Carrying amount: Trade receivables Other receivables Tasmanian assets – security deposits and guarantees |
2022 2021 $ $ - 16,500 154,259 234,029 500,000 500,000 |
|---|---|
| 654,259 750,529 |
There are no amounts of collateral held as security at 30 June 2022.
The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents, money market funds, debentures and derivate financial instruments is considered negligible since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings.
In respect of trade and other receivables, the Group trades only with recognised creditworthy third parties. It is the Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures, which include an assessment of credit rating, short-term liquidity and financial position. The Group obtains sufficient collateral (where appropriate) from customers as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. All potential customers are assessed for credit worthiness considering their size, market position and financial standing. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis, with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not significant.
VAT, after expected credit losses, is receivable from the Government of Madagascar for the equivalent value of A$nil (2021: A$nil) at reporting date. The receivable amount relates to VAT included on trade and other purchase transactions in Madagascar since acquiring the Graphmada operations. Whilst the Company is confident that it will receive the VAT in full, there is always an element of risk associated with recouping foreign taxes.
The Group’s management considers that all of the above financial assets that are not impaired or past due for each of the reporting dates under review are of good credit quality.
At reporting date, the Group has certain trade receivables, other receivables and VAT receivable that have not been settled by the contractual due date but are not considered to be impaired. The amounts at reporting date analysed by the length of time past due, are:

(iii) Net fair values
The fair value of a financial asset or a financial liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents and trade and other payables approximate their carrying values, as a result of their short maturity or because they carry floating rates of interest.
Financial instruments classified as other receivables – VAT receivable are measured at fair value. In addition, borrowings (including convertible notes) are measured at fair value. No other financial assets or financial liabilities are measured at fair value.
The fair value of the Groups’ financial instruments recognised in the financial statements approximates or equals their carrying amounts. For details on how fair values are calculated for each class of financial instrument refer to Note 2 of the Notes to the financial statements.
(iv) Financial instruments measured at fair value
The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the statements of financial position have been analysed and classified using a fair value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels:
-
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
-
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
-
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that is not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
Measurement of fair value of financial instruments
The methods and valuation techniques used for the purpose of measuring fair value are unchanged compared to the previous reporting period and are outlined in Note 2.

Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 4 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $4,195,498 and net operating cash outflows of $1,882,420 during the year ended 30 June 2022, and as of that date, the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its total assets by $2,412,005.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
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 addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Acquisition of Andes Litio SA – Note 13
During the year, Greenwing Resources acquired Andes Litio SA, an entity domiciled in Argentina which has an option agreement to acquire 100% of the San Jorge Lithium Brine Project.
Our procedures included, amongst others:
- Obtaining an understanding of the transaction with reference to the agreement of sale of shares, the option agreement and subsequent correspondence, ASX announcements and discussions with management;
Judgement was required to be exercised in determining the accounting to be applied to this transaction. The Company determined it should be accounted for as an asset acquisition, rather than a business combination, due to the transaction not meeting the definition of a “business” in accordance with AASB 3 Business Combinations . The Group was also required to determine the appropriate accounting treatment for the equity, deferred and contingent consideration payable under the purchase agreement.
-
Assessing the determination that the transaction was to be accounted for as an asset acquisition rather than a business combination;
-
Assessing the accounting for key components of the transaction including:
-
Evaluating the initial measurement of assets and liabilities;
This has been considered a key audit matter due to the level of judgement required by management in determining the appropriate accounting treatment as well as the significance of this transaction to the Group.
-
Evaluating the treatment of consideration paid in the form of equity instruments; and
-
Evaluating the treatment of deferred and contingent consideration.
-
Assessing the inclusion of the Andes Litio SA entity into the Greenwing Resources group and evaluating whether the appropriate journal entries had been processed as part of financial statement preparation; and
-
Assessing whether sufficient and appropriate disclosure of the transaction has been made in the financial statements.
