REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
The loss for the half-year ended 31 December 2006 was \$1,482,991 (2005 - \$701,657).
The company's activities during the six month period are summarised as follows:
COOLJARLOO (Image Earning 70%)
Extensive aircore drilling of ground magnetic targets at Cooljarloo continued to confirm the presence of deep thick channel-like features which host significant heavy mineral (HM) concentrations in the eastern part of the Cooliarloo project area. At least four main channels have been identified with a possible accumulative strike length of more than 10km. Significant channel drill results include (see map below):
| Hole No | HM Intersection | From m |
|---|---|---|
| 267 | 14m @ 3.26 | 20 |
| 268 | [email protected]% | 18 |
| 269 | 14m @ 5.3% | 18 |
| 270 | $30m @ 4.6\%$ | 18 |

| 524 | 16m @ 4.0% | 12 |
| 533 | $10m @ 5.5\%$ | 24 |
| 709. | 18m @ 3.4% | 16 |
| 713 | [email protected]% | 18 |
| 725 | 16m @ 3.0% | 16 |
| 799 | 14m @ 5.3% | 2 |
| 907 | 66m @ 2.1% | 14 |
| 908 | 67m @ 2.1% | 14 |
| 915 | 22m @ 3.0% | 54 |
| 930 | 28m @ 2.5% | 38 |
Ongoing interpretation of detailed ground magnetics, together with the results of both recent and historical drilling has identified several more potential HM channels, increasing the number of channel targets to 20 over a cumulative strike length of 50km. Modal analyses from the northeast of the channel sections indicate the valuable heavy mineral content of the HM to be 85%, comprised of 68% ilmenite, 11% zircon, 3.3% rutile and 2.6% leucoxene.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
Infill aircore drilling on the northern part of the 35AHD strand confirmed shallow-high grade HM concentrations, with intersections including (see map):
| Hole No | HM Intersection | From m |
|---|---|---|
| 351 | 8m @ 13.4% | 2 |
| 369 | [email protected]% | 4 |
| 378 | [email protected]% | 2 |

| 493 | 10m @ 12.0% | 2 |
| 511 | [email protected]% | 8 |
| 514 | 4m @ 8.3% | 6 |
Modal analyses of composite samples from the 35 AHD strand indicate an average valuable HM content of 75% composed of 55% ilmenite, 8% rutile, 8% zircon and 4% leucoxene. The high-grade parts of the 35 AHD strand average an 80% valuable HM content composed of 65% ilmenite, 6% rutile, 6% leucoxene and 3% leucoxene
Infill drilling was also completed on the southern 2km of the 3km-long 28,000 strand. Several shallow, high grade intersections were made including:
| Hole No | HM Intersection | From m |
|---|---|---|
| 573 | [email protected]% | 0 |
| 580 | [email protected]% | 4 |
| 590 | 4m @ 15.8% | 0 |

| 625 | [email protected]% | 2 |
| 637 | [email protected]% | $\overline{2}$ |
| 645 | [email protected]% | 2 |
Modal analyses of a composite sample from the higher grade parts of the 28000 strand indicate a valuable HM content of 72% composed of 59% ilmenite, 5% rutile, 7% zircon and 1% leucoxene.
To date drilling by Image has been carried out over a 3.7km length of the 35 AHD and 28000 shallow highgrade resource strands and over a 7km length on the channel targets, representing about 10% of the targets outlined so far. Further drilling is planned.
During the period Image confirmed a 51% interest in the project and elected to continue sole funding to earn a 70% interest.
COOLJARLOO NORTH (Image 100%)
83 line km of detailed ground magnetic surveys were completed over the project area during the period. Four high priority HM targets were identified with an aggregate strike length of more than 12km. Historical drilling results from this area reported shallow HM intersections coincident with the magnetic targets. Following grant of the tenement and signing of access agreements with landowners drilling commenced on the magnetic targets.
ABN 57 063 977 579
DIRECTORS REPORT
COOLJARLOO SOUTH (Image 100%)
During the period Image applied for a 40sq km exploration licence about 20km SE of Tiwest's Cooljarloo mine covering aeromagnetic targets along strike from the mine and interpreted to have potential for HM strandlines.
BIDAMINNA (Image 100%)
Environmental permitting for the 1.5km strike extension south of Image's previous drilling in the Callisto HM strand is in progress. Callisto is situated about 15km NW of Gingin and forms part of Image's Bidaminna project covering known HM resources outlined by historical drilling. During the period Image applied for two exploration licences to the south of Bidaminna, Gingin and McKinley. Historical exploration completed over the area of the tenements includes an aeromagnetic survey and limited wide-spaced drilling. Interpretation of the aeromagnetics has identified several new targets warranting follow up.
NORTH PERTH BASIN (Image 100%)
Following its successful HM exploration at Cooljarloo, Image extended the scope of its exploration targets to the older basement Mesozoic sediments east of the Gingin Scarp. The thick channel-style mineralisation discovered at Cooljarloo is interpreted to occur within these older sediments beneath the shallow younger Pleistocene sediments which have been subject of most of the HM exploration in the North Perth Basin to date. Image applied for three tenements totaling 1,100sq km, effectively tripling its land position in the North Perth Basin to 1,660sq km - see map.
EMU LAKJE JV (Image 100%)
During the period joint venturer Jubilee Mines carried out a detailed surface EM survey over the Gossan Zone where the best nickel sulphide intersections have been obtained to date. Additional geochemical sampling was also completed.
GLEN HERRING (Image 90%)
Image completed geochemical soil sampling over a zone of cinnabar-bearing quartz veining and defined a large coherent 800m x 250m mercury anomaly (peak 11.6ppm Hg compared to a background of 0.5ppm Hg). Scout open hole percussion drilling (43 holes, 710m) in five shallow traverses across the anomaly intersected anomalous Hg values on all lines with a best intercept of 9m at 177ppm Hg at end of hole.
BRONCO PLAINS JV (Image 100%, diluting)
Processing and interpretation of aeromagnetic data over the project by Troy Resources was carried out during the period.
TROJAN JV (Image 100%)
Troy Resources withdrew from the joint venture and Image re-appraised the Woongaring, Scorpion Well and Adam Range projects.
MT HAYS (Image 90%)
A 10-hole, 300m shallow open hole percussion drilling programme was completed to test the extent of gold mineralisation up dip or adjacent to previous drill intersections. The shallow drilling tested a 200m-long section within a 650m-long zone of quartz veining and stockworks.

KAMBALDA WEST (Image 100% diluting)
Image has reached agreement with Kambalda nickel miner Mincor Resources NL for a joint venture on ten granted, 100%-owned Image tenements in the Nepean district south of Coolgardie and west of Kambalda see map below.
The tenements were acquired by Image immediately following the release of new state government aeromagnetic data which identified potential for ultramafic rocks prospective for nickel sulphides. In particular, the 725sq km tenement package is considered to have potential for high-grade Nepean-style nickel sulphide mineralisation.
Under the terms of the agreement Mincor may earn a 51% interest in the tenements by expenditure of \$750,000 within three years and may elect to increase this by a further 19% interest by expenditure of an additional \$750,000 within a further two years, i.e. up to 70% for \$1.5million.

Kambalda West Joint Venture Tenements
DIRECTORS' REPORT
METEORIC JOINT VENTURE (Image 100% diluting)
Image has concluded an agreement with Meteoric Resources NL for a joint venture on three 100%-owned Image gold projects at Scorpion Well, Top Well and Mt Remarkable in the Eastern Goldfields of WA. Image has carried out preliminary exploration at Scorpion Well, 10km southeast of the +2Moz Centenary gold mines and confirmed the presence of host rocks favourable for Centenary-style gold containing anomalous gold values. The drilling obtained best intercepts of 8m at 4.5g/t Au from 4m and 4m at 3.0g/t Au from 8m
MAGNETIC RESOURCES NL
During the period Image confirmed its intention to farm out a large package of tenements (64 exploration licences) totaling 6,704sq km in the Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia to Magnetic Resources NL and to assist Magnetic to list on ASX.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2006
NOTE1 SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis Of Preparation
The half-year financial report is a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 - Interim Financial Reporting, Urgent Issues Group Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board.
The interim financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2006 and any public announcements made by the Company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001.
(a) Revenue
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account interest rates applicable to the financial asset.
(b) Employee Entitlements
Wages and Salaries and Annual Leave - Liabilities for wages and salaries and annual leave are recognised, and are measured as the amount unpaid at the reporting date at current pay rates in respect of employees' services up to that date. There is no liability to Long Service Leave entitlements.
(c) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
All exploration and evaluation expenditure is expensed to profit and loss as incurred. The effect of this write-off is to increase the loss incurred from ordinary activities as disclosed in the Income Statement by \$832,203 and to decrease the carrying values in the Balance Sheet to \$Nil.
(d) Acquisition of Assets
The cost method is used for all acquisitions of assets regardless of whether shares or other assets are acquired. Cost is determined as the fair value of assets given up at the date of acquisition plus costs incidental to the acquisition.
Costs relating to the acquisition of new areas of interest are classified as either exploration and evaluation expenditure or mine properties based on the stage of development reached at the date of acquisition.
ABN 57 063 977 579
NOTES TO THE HNANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALL-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2006
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(e) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
- where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
- receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Balance Sheet.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flow on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
$(f)$ Income Tax
The change for current income tax expenses is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any nonassessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the economic entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.
$(g)$ Cash
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash includes:
- cash on hand and at call deposits with banks or financial institutions, net of bank overdrafts; and $(i)$
- (ii) investments in money market instruments with less than 30 days to maturity.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2006
SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) NOTE1
(h) Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the company reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset's carrying value. Any excess of the asset's carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.
(i) Earnings Per Share
- (i) Basic Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the profit from ordinary activities after related income tax expense by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.
- (ii) Diluted Earnings Per Share Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members, adiusted for:
- costs of servicing equity (other than dividends);
- the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
- other discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares.
(i) Non-current Assets
Items of plant and equipment are recorded at cost, being the fair value of consideration provided plus incidental costs. This cost is written off over its expected economic life, adjusted for any salvage value, if applicable. Estimates of remaining useful lives range between 4 and 5 years.
(k) Recoverable Amount
Non-current assets are not carried at an amount greater than their recoverable amount, and where carrying values exceed this recoverable amount, assets are written down. In determining recoverable amount the expected net cash flows have not been discounted.
$(1)$ Financial Instruments
Financial Assets: Security deposits are recognised at their fair value. Other receivables are carried at nominal amount due less any provision for doubtful debts. An estimate of doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. Sundry debtors and other receivables are non-interest bearing and have repayment terms between 30 and 90 days.
Financial Liabilities: Liabilities for trade creditors and other accruals are carried at cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Company. Trade creditors are normally settled on 30 day terms.
Available-for-sale Financial Assets: Available-for-sale financial assets include any financial assets not included in the above categories and are initially measured at cost being the fair value of the consideration and including acquisition charges associated with the investment. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the investment are taken directly to equity.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATIMENTS FOR THE HALF-YFAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2006
NOTE1 SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(m) Contributed Equity
Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.
(n) Share-based Payments
Share-based compensation benefits are provided to directors as approved in general meeting by members.
No expense is recognised in respect of share options granted prior to 1 January 2005. The shares will be recognised when the options are exercised and the proceeds are received and allocated to share capital.
In respect of share options granted after 1 January 2005, the fair value is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value of the options are calculated at the date of grant using either Black-Scholes or Geske option pricing models and expensed directly to profit and loss. The resultant values used in the models have been adjusted, based on management's best estimates, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations. Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share-based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital.
(o) Joint Ventures
Interest in joint venture operations are brought to account by including in the respective classifications, the share of individual assets employed, liabilities and expenses incurred and revenue from the sale of joint venture output. Interest in joint venture operations are brought to account by including assets and liabilities in their respective classifications.
(p) Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial period.

Independent review report to the members of IMAGE RESOURCES NL (Continued)
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enguiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, provided to the directors of the Company on 16 March 2007, would be in the same terms if provided to the directors as at the date of this auditor's review report.
Conclusion
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-vear financial report of the Company is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
- $(a)$ giving a true and fair view of the Company's financial position as at 31 December 2006 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date: and
- $(b)$ complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.
