2020-2021 in Review
The past year has seen Jameson Resources Limited (“JAL or the Company”) experience its share of highlights and challenges in an overall challenging macroeconomic backdrop from increased levels of regulation and compliance costs for coal projects, increased volatility in steelmaking coal prices and the negative impact COVID-19 has continued to have on many countries around the world.
Highlights
The highlights for the past financial year have included:
-
Release of the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Bankable Feasibility Study in July 2020 (“2020 BFS”), demonstrating an economically robust, high quality hard coking coal mine with a 15-year mine life
-
Completed the yield optimisation study as part of the BFS Optimisation Plan to produce a higher ash specification coal product. The study reflected an improvement in the expected overall yield and resulted in a 25% improvement in NPV over the 2020 BFS
-
Furthering the Crown Mountain Environmental Assessment Certificate Application (“EA Application”) submission, with completion of all technical assessments and baseline studies and progressing the cumulative effects assessment throughout the Elk Valley
-
Progressing close engagement with Indigenous nations and other stakeholders to ensure the EA is developed in a responsible and transparent process, which has taken longer than expected given the impact of COVID and the need to complete a regulatorily required step in our ongoing engagement with key Indigenous nations Continued engagement with regulators and key stakeholders including Provincial and Federal Regulators and the Ktunaxa Nation Council (“KNC”)
-
Significant improvement in global seaborne steelmaking coal demand and prices during the last year and particularly the strength of steelmaking coal prices for Canadian coal with China’s ban on Australian coal imports
Challenges
Similar to previous financial year, the past year has also seen its share of challenges that have included:
-
The impact of COVID-19 on the Company, its employees and contractors and consultants has affected the way they undertake their work. In particular, the ability to undertake extensive engagement with Indigenous nations, regional and local stakeholders in Canada was significantly challenged during the year
-
Increasing regulatory requirements under the EA Application framework resulting in additional engagement and assessment of regional cumulative effects to ensure the Project’s potential impacts and benefits are well understood by Regulators, Indigenous nations and stakeholders
-
Increasing global ESG expectations , particularly in relation to the steelmaking and coal resource sectors and its contribution to carbon emissions
-
Jameson funding 80% of Crown Mountain Project costs for FY22, given our Joint Venture partner Bathurst Resources Limited (“Bathurst or BRL”) exercised their discretion to no longer fund 100% of cashcalls under the Tranche Two Cash Advance Option. Jameson will be required to pro-rata fund its 80% share of costs until Final Investment Decision where Bathurst has the option to exercise its discretion in relation to the Tranche Two Option for C$107.4m remaining.
Despite these challenges, the Company has continued to monitor the external environment whilst maintaining its commitment to progressing the evaluation and permitting of the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project, continuing to drive it closer to obtaining the relevant approvals to enable Final Investment Decision (“FID”) and ultimately development.
-
Further development and broadening of our strategy, including incorporating a revised purpose and a vision as part of our strategic roadmap to deliver value to shareholders through focus on implementing strategies by being commercially focused with strong stakeholder engagement to achieve sustainable growth. This has seen the appointment of Michael Gray as Managing Director and the employment of Dave Baines by NWP Coal Canada to focus our engagement across with all stakeholders
-
Consideration of a number of potential value add acquisitive growth opportunities whilst approvals for the Crown Mountain Project are being progressed

Letter to Shareholders
The significant progress made by the Company on the Project’s feasibility, permitting and engagement are all major building blocks toward project development. We are pleased to note this progress has been recognised with the International Energy Agency identifying Crown Mountain as the most advanced steelmaking development project in Canada.
Extensive work was undertaken on the EA Application throughout the year, resulting in the completion of all technical assessments by June 2021 and the preparation of the EA Application for submission to Provincial and Federal regulators targeted in the Dec quarter 2021. This work is the culmination of more than six years of environmental baseline monitoring, effects assessment and environmental approval work that commenced in 2014.
Progressing the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project in British Columbia
Dear Shareholder,
The past year has been a significant year for your Company, Jameson Resources Limited (“Jameson” or “the Company”) in progressing the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project (“the Project”) through the evaluation phase. It has been a year of highlights critical to moving the Project closer to obtaining relevant approvals to enable Final Investment Decision (“FID”) and has also included a strengthening of our leadership and internal resources.
The Company looks forward to the year ahead which will include further progress of key development milestones for Crown Mountain. The EA Application is targeted for submission in the Dec 2021 quarter. The Company will also progress during 2022FY, additional opportunities to further optimise the BFS and improve project economics; undertake investigations to further enhance the Project’s environmental management framework including options to reduce the carbon intensity of product coal from the site; will initiate discussions with potential offtake customers for the Project; and will continue to progress deep engagement with Indigenous nations and all project stakeholders.
The Company supports the increased community interest in ensuring rigorous environmental impact assessment of resource projects and is committed to demonstrating the EA Application meets the stringent guidelines of both Provincial and Federal regulators as well as considering the expectations of all stakeholders. Crown Mountain is one of the first projects to undertake the cumulative effects assessments process to consider the broader cumulative regional impact of projects on the environment and community rather than an individual project in isolation. Whilst this process has created challenges due to the lack of precedents, it has provided Jameson with the opportunity to demonstrate its commitment to sustainable environmental management, transparent engagement and working together with Regulators and Indigenous nations.
The Company is proud to have been able to continue to significantly advance the Project against another year of overall challenging macroeconomic environment. The last year has continued to experience uncertainty and negative global economic impacts from COVID-19. This impact was also felt on steelmaking coal demand, prices and project regulatory approval processes. The Company has continued to monitor the external environment whilst maintaining its commitment to progressing the evaluation and permitting of the Project. We are pleased to note that during the second half of the year, there has been substantial increase in global demand for seaborne steelmaking coal, particularly for quality hard coking coal from Canada. This macroeconomic environment supports the Company’s view on the fundamentals of the steelmaking coal market - that growth in demand continues to exceed the growth in supply, a situation that provides an excellent platform for development of Crown Mountain.
In parallel with the extensive progress on Crown Mountain and to support its sustainable growth strategy, the Company has commenced assessing potential acquisitive growth opportunities and will continue to seek such opportunities in the next year.
Jameson recognises the critical ongoing role of steelmaking coal in global economic development and acknowledges increasing concern about carbon emissions from the steel industry. The Company is committed to being an ESG leader amongst steelmaking coal developers and maximising engagement with all stakeholders to enable delivery of sustainable outcomes for local and regional communities, customers and the environment. The progress made on the Project is directly underpinned by the Company’s values and implementing strategies with strong stakeholder engagement to achieve growth sustainably and being commercially focused with a continuous improvement mindset.

Nicole Hollows Chairman 6 September 2021
The Company progressed a number of key milestones and activities toward development of Crown Mountain during the year. The release of the BFS in July 2020 confirmed the Project as a compelling opportunity for development of a premium hard coking coal Project with an attractive operating cost structure and direct access to infrastructure. Progress of the Yield Optimisation Study during the year further built upon the BFS, leading to identification of a product specification which increased the Project’s NPV by a further 25% above that of the BFS without the requirement for any further capital investment.

Growth in perspective
The Company has developed parameters for identification of potential opportunities to ensure its strategy is executed with welldefined criteria that enables value to be delivered whilst attempting to minimise associated project risk.
-
those located in developed nations with low sovereign risk, with a preference to Canadian and Australian assets given existing knowledge and expertise and lower risk jurisdictions
-
a preference for resources that are extractable via open cut methods
-
those proximate to existing established infrastructure with latent capacity
-
projects that have commenced the evaluation process, to mitigate risk and ensure any potential project is sufficiently up the value curve (see schematic below) to ensure exploration and technical risk are minimised, whilst being closer to production to maximise potential shareholder value.
The defined parameters include a focus on the following assets:
-
steelmaking coal assets, with Hard Coking Coal (‘HCC”) as the preference, an area the Company believes it can add value
-
high quality, high margin or low-cost
The Company will give due consideration for all of its projects including Crown Mountain to be evaluated, developed and operated responsibly and sustainably.
Jameson will also continue to progress Crown Mountain up and along the project value curve with its current key focus on submitting the EA Application by December 2021 and obtaining the relevant environmental approvals

Jameson Resources Limited | Annual Report 2020-21
Overview
The Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project (“Crown Mountain”) is a high-quality steelmaking coal opportunity for development, located in the Elk Valley, British Columbia. It is situated between two of Teck Resources operating mines - ~11km from Line Creek and ~8km from Elkview. The Project is proximate to existing common user rail that accesses three deep water ports on the West Coast of Vancouver, Canada.
Crown Mountain has been advanced through exploration and coal quality work, Preliminary Economic Assessment, a Pre-Feasibility Study completed in 2014, an Updated PreFeasibility in 2017 and the release of the Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) on 9 July 2020.
The PCI is a Low to Mid Volatile PCI coal that compares favourably with the Australian Low to Mid Volatile PCI coals on the basis of ash, sulphur, carbon content and calorific value which are the key determinants in coke replacement ratio. Crown Mountain PCI coal’s coke replacement ratio is similar to that achieved by the LV PCI coals produced in Australia.
The defined mining parameters established by the BFS include average annual production of 1.8 Million Tonnes Per Annum (“Mtpa”) over the life of mine. The Project has a favourable Run-of-Mine (“ROM”) strip ratio 4.7:1 BCM:ROM tonnes and an average plant yield of 48.7%. The first four years of mining occurs in the North and East pits which is lower ROM strip ratio of 4.1 BCM:ROM tonnes and higher yield (61.2%), producing up to 2.3 Mtpa. The mine then progresses to the South Pit which is mined from the South to the North.
The Crown Mountain BFS included the following highlights:
-
Robust economic outcomes including a pre-tax NPV(10) of US$376m and IRR of 36.4%, assuming purchase of the mobile equipment, workshops and ancillary infrastructure
-
represents a compelling high quality coking coal opportunity for development with a competitive operating and capital cost structure and access to existing common user rail and port infrastructure
-
high quality low volatile (‘LV’) steelmaking coal, with the Life of Mine (“LOM”) product mix being 86% Hard Coking Coal (“HCC”) and 14% Pulverised Coal Injection (“PCI”) coal
-
The mine plan is based on an average LOM production rate of 1.8 Mtpa of saleable coal, 57.5 Mt Total Run of Mine (“ROM”) from the North, East and South pits over 15 years.
At completion of the BFS, the Company also identified a number of areas of potential optimisation to be evaluated, in order to maximise the economic outcomes, whilst finalising the relevant environmental and permitting approvals to be ready for financial investment decision.
The Crown Mountain BFS was based resources of 90.2Mt, including 66.5Mt in the Measured and Indicated category across three pits – North, East and South pits. There is 23.7Mt of Inferred resource in the Southern Extension that sits outside the aforementioned pits that could provide additional organic growth through either extension of mine life or increased annual production. Additional work is required to upgrade the resource category, determine the coal quality and understand production costs.
The HCC quality in the North and East pits is comparable to the seaborne Low Volatile Matter (“LV”) Premium HCC Benchmark and is expected to achieve this benchmark pricing. The HCC quality in the South Pit is expected to receive a 10% discount to the LV Premium HCC Benchmark as a result of a lower Coke Strength after Reaction (“CSR”) and higher phosphorous than that in the North and East pits.
The Company has been progressing the environmental permitting of the Project since 2014. That process commenced with the Project Description, followed by the successful receipt of the Application Information Requirements (“AIR”) in 2018 that forms the basis for Environmental Assessment Certificate Application (“EA Application”). The Company is on track to submit the EA Application in the December quarter 2021 with all technical studies including baseline work, terrestrial modelling, flora and fauna studies, air, ground water and surface water modelling completed in June 2021. The modelling approach and completed models have been the subject of ongoing engagement with Regulators, both Provincial and Federal, and Indigenous nations. The pre-submittal engagement has been used to communicate the approach and results of modelling and the associated quantification of impacts, proposed mitigation and offsets. The use of a quantitative approach to addressing terrestrial modelling, rather than simple engagement of subject matter experts and the use of qualitative factors, has enabled robust and constructive discussion with the Regulators.

Location and Tenure
The Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project (“Crown Mountain” or “the Project”) is located within the Elk Valley coal field in south-eastern British Columbia. Along with the Crowsnest coal field, this region is home to four of Canada’s active coking coal mines. These four coal mines produce over 20 million tonnes per annum of quality coking and thermal coal, representing a majority of Canada’s total coal exports.
Crown Mountain is in close proximity to two significant steelmaking coal mines: Line Creek which is 12km to the north, and Elkview which is 8km to the southwest (Figure 2). The Project includes ten granted coal licences (418150, 418151, 418152, 418153, 418154, 418966, 419272, 419273, 419274, and 419275) covering an area of 5,630 hectares.
consultants engaged including Sedgman Canada Limited“) (a member of CIMIC Group), and SRK Consulting (‘‘SRK’’).
The BFS confirmed that Crown Mountain represents a compelling high quality hard coking coal development opportunity with a competitive operating and capital cost structure and access to existing common user rail and port infrastructure.
The BFS also identified a number of optimisation opportunities which could further improve the positive economics of the Project. These included:
-
Yield Optimisation
-
Increased Coal Handling and Processing Plant (CHPP) Utilisation
-
Review of CHPP Capital costs
-
Contract mining or mobile equipment leasing
-
Consideration of potential Build-Own-OperateTransfer options for the CHPP
-
Further exploration in Southern Extension area.

Bankable Feasibility Study July 2020
On 9 July 2020, the Company announced the robust economic results of the Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) for Crown Mountain.
The Project has a low strip ratio, an average life of mine (“LOM”) 1.7Mtpa clean coal product operation at competitive operating costs with direct access to global seaborne markets through one of the three deep water ports on the west coast of British Columbia.
The BFS demonstrated a technically and economically robust Project that will produce an average of 86% LV HCC and 14% PCI coal over the 15-year mine life (see Table 2 on the following page). The study was led by Stantec Consulting’s (”Stantec”) Vancouver office with other
Yield Optimisation Study August 2021
The Yield Optimisation Study, the first of these opportunities to be progressed, involved the following:
-
Assessing the ash yield curve of each coal block to assess opportunities to improve CHPP yield
-
Testing of higher ash product coal samples to understand any potential impact a higher ash product has on key coking properties of the product
-
Assessment of the overall Project economics of producing a higher ash product by analysing potential production increase against any relative revenue discount due to a higher ash product.
The Yield Optimisation Study confirmed reduced production cost and increased sales volume resulted in an overall 25% increase in pre-tax NPV10 to US$469m compared with that in the BFS.
In addition, the Study confirmed:
-
increased production and substantial improved potential economic outcomes by increasing product ash levels from 9.5% to 10.5% for North and East pits product and from 9.5% to 11.0% for South Pit product
-
Increased product ash levels enable increased processing yield which results in a direct increase in product coal and export sales.
-
The study determined an increased Life-of-Mine product yield of 52.9% compared with 48.8% in the BFS resulting in an 8.4% increase in average annual product coal sales from 1.8 to 1.96 Mtpa
-
The increased yield and consequent increase in saleable export product results in a 4% reduction in cash operating costs (FOB Vancouver) to USD89.41/tonne, further enhancing the Project’s attractive position on the cost curve.

Mining
Given the shallow geology of the resource, all mining at the Crown Mountain Project will be open pit. Mining equipment includes excavators, front end loaders, and haul trucks, supported by dozers, backhoes, and blasthole drills. This type of equipment is typical for Elk Valley mining operations, and includes equipment specific to selective mining in certain thinner seams present on the property. The majority (90%) of overburden removal is projected to require blasting.
Processing
Coal processing occurs through a Coal Handling and Process Plant (‘CHPP’) that is located near the North Pit. Coal will be trucked to the CHPP where it will be processed. The average LOM processing yield is 52.9%, delivering a clean coal, or saleable coal resource of 28.5Mt at an average clean coal strip ratio of 9.5:1 BCM:t clean coal.
The primary processing method is heavy media cyclone and reflux classifier, supplemented by column cell flotation for fines recovery. A hyperbaric filter is included in the plant design to reduce the product moisture of the fine coal. The CHPP design developed in the BFS has been maintained in the Yield Optimisation Study but resultant plant yields have been increased to reflect increased product recovery due to
increased target product ash levels. The resultant CHPP yield for coking coal product form each pit is summarised in Table 4 below:
Coal Quality
Coal from the Crown Mountain Project is modelled to be 86% Premium low-volatile Hard Coking Coal and 14% mid-vol PCI (Pulverised Coal Injection).
Washed coal will be conveyed down the mountain (3 km) and then trucked approximately 15 km to a stockpile/loadout area where the product will ultimately be loaded on train with a 152 railcars (16,000t capacity) on a new rail loop to be located adjacent to Canadian Pacific’s (“CP”) existing common-user railway. The loadout facility includes covered storage with a batch weigh bulk loading system for accurate load control and freight cost management.
Key features of the coking coal product are high CSR (Coke Strength after Reaction) and low volatile matter (VM) consistent with similar Elk Valley coals. High CSR and low VM are critical coke-making characteristics that determine demand and relative market position for coking coals. Crown Mountain’s Hard Coking Coal product is comparable with the established global Premium Low Vol Hard Coking Coals brands as shown in Figure 4.

Infrastructure
Transport
The Project is located in an area with well supported infrastructure for coal mining. Teck operates a total of four coking coal mines in the Elk Valley and general vicinity of the Project: one of these operations is south of Crown Mountain and three are north. As a result, mainline rail, power, supporting communities and services are all nearby.
CP’s rail is a combined 18 km from the wash plant: 3 km of overland conveyor and a 15 km truck haul. Power lines will be extended 14 km from the main transmission line to the preparation plant. A natural gas line of similar length is planned to provide heat for the plant, shop, and support facilities. Existing access roads to the Project will be upgraded: these roads have already been used for logging operations and product transportation by a local quarry.
Water supply will originate from two sources: a sediment pond located in the Alexander Creek drainage and a storage pond to be located adjacent to Grave Creek. Seasonal flow studies and estimated Project water requirements indicate this is a viable solution.
The towns of Sparwood, Elkford, Fernie, and Crowsnest Pass will be the source of the Crown Mountain workforce, and house numerous mining-related service industries.
Once loaded onto rail, carrier CP will transport the coal to either Westshore Terminals (‘Westshore’) near Vancouver, or to Ridley Terminals (‘Ridley’) near Prince Rupert, where it will be loaded into ships. Westshore, at a distance of approximately 1,200 kms, is the terminal of choice for Crown Mountain coal, with an estimated transportation cost (combined rail and port) of US$29.25/tonne.
Capacity expansion continues at the Vancouver ports. Currently Teck is undertaking an expansion project at the Neptune Terminal where they have publicly stated they will be shipping coal from once it is complete and their Take or Pay contract with Westshore expires in 2021. As a result, it is believed Westshore will have available capacity when the first coal from Crown Mountain is ready for shipment. All clean coal production from Crown Mountain is assumed to be exported. Coal is sold FOB vessel.
Capital Expenditure
The Total Pre-Production Capital expenditure to support the mining and processing operation has been estimated in the BFS and Yield Optimisation Study to be US$352 million (CA$469m) as detailed in Table 5 below.
Table 5 Pre-Production Capital Expenditure ($M) (as at July 8, 2020)

Jameson Resources Limited | Annual Report 2020-21
Environment and Regulatory Approvals
Development of the Project will require approval from both Provincial and Federal regulators. Jameson is preparing an Environmental Assessment (EA) Application to meet the requirements of both jurisdictions. The EA Application is being developed to meet the requirements detailed in the BC EAO’s Application Information Requirements and Impact Assessment Agency of Canada’s Guidelines for preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement. All technical assessment required for the EA Application has now been completed and following completion of a regulatorily required step in the ongoing engagement with key Indigenous nations, it is expected the EA will be submitted to Provincial and Federal Regulators in the December Quarter.
Once submitted, the EA will be subject to a public comment period and technical review by Regulators, Indigenous nations and other key stakeholders. The duration of the assessment and review process is dependent upon the extent of any subsequent Information Requests and ongoing engagement with stakeholders. Additional mine permits must be acquired by the Company before construction can commence.
Indigenous Nations and Community Engagement
Crown Mountain is located within traditional territory of several Indigenous nations. The Ktunaxa Nation assert exclusive Indigenous title over the Project area. Jameson meets regularly with the Ktunaxa Nation and has established a policy of close cooperation and open communication as the
Project moves forward. All Indigenous nations with rights and interests in the Project area are involved in the EA Application and mine permitting process through the referral and consultation routines established between Indigenous nations, Federal and Provincial governments. Jameson representatives have consulted frequently with Indigenous nations since acquiring the original option on Crown Mountain, and will continue to do so during permitting, construction, and mine operation.
In addition to Indigenous nations, there are governmental and private entities that have certain interests with respect to land use, and can be expected to participate in the permitting process through referral and comment. Such entities include, but are not limited to, local governing authorities and special use organisations such as recreational clubs, etc.
The Company has previously met with the local governments (councils, mayors) of all the nearby towns including Sparwood, Elkford, Fernie, and the District of Crowsnest Pass. Through the EA development process, Jameson has also had discussions with non-governmental organisations regarding their specific issues and concerns.
Operating Costs
The mine operating cost estimate was developed in the BFS to consider all site-based aspects of the mining operation, (including coal processing, coal and waste loading and haulage, topsoil salvage and replacement, road maintenance, water management, reclamation and site administration) as well as all off-site costs (including rail and port charges, marketing, royalties and corporate overhead costs).
The total operating costs per product tonne from the BFS and Yield Optimisation Study are summarised in Table 6 below:

Project Development Timeline
The high-level schedule for development of the Project is outlined in Figure 5. A conservative approach to regulatory approval timeframes has been adopted which includes assumption of timelines greater than minimum statutory timelines and assumes no predevelopment capital, in the development of the timeline. Jameson has undertaken extensive pre-submission engagement with Regulators, Indigenous nations and other stakeholders to seek support in the approval process to date and where possible, should reduce timelines in the approval process.
The adopted timeline assumes no commitment to pre-development capital until after Final Investment Decision. A number of opportunities exist to compress this timetable and bring forward first production subject to progress with offtake partners and project funding, which has been highlighted in the timeline through dotted areas.
Discussion with customers and funders will be progressed following submission of EA to enable FID to be made upon permitting approvals.

Investment Agreement with Bathurst Resources Limited
The Investment Agreement entered into between Jameson and Bathurst in July 2018 provides Bathurst (through its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary) options for investing in NWP and provide funding for Crown Mountain costs. Bathurst invested C$4 million in NWP for an 8 per cent common ownership interest to sole fund the 2018 summer exploration program and exercised Option One, investing an additional C$7.5 million in September 2019 to sole fund the Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”), increasing their common ownership interest in NWP to 20 percent.
The agreement also provides for:
- up to a C$5million Advance of the total C$110,000,000 Tranche Two Option at Bathurst’s discretion to provide funding towards pre construction activities
During the 2020 financial year, Bathurst provided C$2.6 million for pre-construction activities, including completion of the BFS, EA Application, and other permitting activities. Bathurst has advised that they will no longer exercise their discretion and use the remaining C$2.4 million of the Option Two Advance facility for sole funding of the Project costs.
Accordingly, Jameson and Bathurst will pro rata contribute the Project related costs in accordance with their ownership interests in NWP. Jameson undertook an equity raising in July to ensure Jameson can pay its share of Project related costs for the EA Application, BFS optimisation work and other NWP costs to be incurred during the 2021 financial year.
- With the completion of the BFS and once the required permits have been issued, Bathurst has the option to sole fund the first C$110 million of construction costs, less any Tranche Two Advances, in the form of cash, which is anticipated to represent the cash component of a project financing package. Upon fully funding all tranches, which total C$121.5 million, Crown Mountain will be a 50/50 joint venture between Jameson and Bathurst

Dunlevy
Ownership: 100% Dunlevy Energy Inc
Commodity: Steelmaking Coal
Location: Peace River, British Columbia
Jameson holds a 100% interest in the Dunlevy Project located in the Peace River coal field district of North-East British Columbia.
The Peace River coal field is estimated to have mineable resources of over 1 billion tonnes of export quality coal (BC Ministry of Energy and Mines). Production from the Peace River coal field has included some of Canada’s major coking coal and PCI mines – Willow Creek, Brule, Wolverine and Trend – that are located along strike from the Project area.
Cancellation of 5 pending exploration license applications by the British Columbian government in 2015 limited the potential scale of the Dunlevy Project should it be ultimately developed. Jameson determined that it was not in the Company’s best interest to proceed any further with Dunlevy at that time, choosing instead to devote available funds to Crown Mountain.
As Jameson has not completed any work on Dunlevy during the past 5 years, please refer to the 2015 Annual Report for information on Project details.
Annual rent on the exploration licenses has been paid and the Project remains in good standing.
Based upon the discontinuation of activities on Dunlevy, the Company elected in 2016 to write down the Project value to nil.
Dunlevy is in a well-developed area where several major mines and mining prospects are located, and is 90km from Fort St. John, a regional commercial centre. All weather roads link Dunlevy to Fort St. John and Chetwynd, where Canadian National Railway’s track can be accessed. The rail provides shipping options from each the three deep water ports on the west coast of Vancouver. There is also potential to reduce transportation costs by utilising the large man-made Williston Lake bordering the property to transport coal by barge to rail access.
Jameson executed a small drilling program at Dunlevy in the summer of 2014.
Dunlevy’s coal licenses are in good standing with the Province.
Due to its early stage, no compliant coal resources have been determined.
Dunlevy consists of 2 approved coal exploration licenses as shown in Table 8 below:

Sustainability
Jameson believes it is important to acknowledge the role steelmaking coal, and in turn Steel, has in everyday life. We are committed to working with customers and supply chains to achieve lower emissions, but steelmaking coal and steel will continue to play an ongoing and critical role in modern society as an integral ingredient in building infrastructure, cars, buses, trucks, clean energy including wind and solar, houses, appliances and high rise apartments that contribute to the improved quality of life in both developed and developing nations.
Jameson represents the next generation of Canadian steelmaking coal developers (and ultimately producers) who want to ensure that the steelmaking coal that is extracted for use as a vital ingredient in the steelmaking process, is done so in a considered, sustainable manner that places great emphasis on the environmental and social implications of everything that we do.
Sustainability is at the core of our purpose to become an independent, growth orientated steelmaking coal developer focused on delivering sustainable outcomes. Our strategic goal is to ensure that Jameson Grows Sustainably with a focus on long term sustainable development – we put the health and safety of our employees and contractors first, we aspire to sustainably manage our environmental impact, foster inclusion and diversity and engage with our local communities to ensure we are a valued long term community partner.
At the local community level, we view and manage sustainability through engagement with stakeholders, being open and transparent about how we operate and will seek to manage our risks to minimise environmental, social and cultural impacts.
We also believe that supporting local communities and First Nations through education and providing opportunities for employment will be valuable as we move closer to construction and production of the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project.
Environmental Risk Management
We recognise that our environmental performance and management of environment impacts on local communities plays a significant role in social value and being a valued community partner.
Our approach to environmental management in our Environmental Assessment Application has been to use a proven sciencebased approach to identify, quantify and mitigate risks. This approach has included the development of quantitative ungulate and carnivore occupancy models which provide a more comprehensive assessment of the baseline environment, so that any potential negative impacts can be identified and mitigated.
The robust approach to identifying and, in turn, minimising environmental impacts, will be applied throughout the lifecycle of the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project from development and operation through to closure. Our mine closure and biodiversity management plans have included consideration of the Mining Association of Canada Towards Sustainable Mining Framework and the International Council of Mining and Metals protocols, to ensure that best practice is being applied to these plans.
Climate Change Risk Management
Furthermore, sustainability includes addressing the challenges and opportunities of climate change and acknowledging the uncertainty that climate change presents. We are committed to partnering with customers and supply chains to achieve lower emissions. Additionally, as progress through the permitting process toward Final Investment Decision is made, continued trade off analysis of potential improvements that may result in reductions in emissions will be considered, including:
-
securing power supply from BC Hydro where ~95% of power comes from Hydro sources
-
using efficient diesel engines when compared with the rapidly evolving electric vehicle and hydrogen fuel cell markets, including the benefits derived from regenerative braking for electric haul trucks that also have the potential to reduce noise and air pollution
-
the use of LNG storage (and regassification) compared with the use of a gas pipeline and the economic and environmental benefits.

Our Corporate Structure
Jameson Resources Limited is a public company listed on the ASX (Code: JAL) and is incorporated in Western Australia. The Company has a 77.8% interest in NWP Coal Canada Limited (“NWP”) which holds a 90% interest in the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project and a 100% direct interest in the Dunlevy Coal Project, both located in British Columbia, Canada. In October 2019, a subsidiary of Bathurst Resources Limited (ASX:BRL) (“Bathurst”) acquired a 20% interest in NWP in common shares by exercising its Tranche One Option and an additional 2.2% in Class B Preference shares, exercising its Tranche Two Advance Option of C$2.6 million. Bathurst holds a Tranche Two Option, at their discretion, to increase their ownership interest to 50%, subject to certain milestones and additional payments.
Jameson Resources Limited and its subsidiaries NWP Coal Canada Ltd (“NWP”) and Dunlevy Energy Inc. are collectively referred to as Jameson, or the Group, as the context requires.
The principal activity of the Group during the financial year was advancing the Company’s Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project (“Crown Mountain”) through the evaluation phase. All technical assessments for the Environmental Assessment Application were completed and subject to the completion of a necessary regulatory step with key stakeholders, we will be in a position to lodge the EA Application which Principal is targeted for the December 2021 quarter. Activities Management also evaluates other coal opportunities that present themselves from time-to-time.
There were no significant changes in the nature of the Group’s principal activities during the financial year.
The past year has seen its share of highlights and challenges for Jameson Resources Limited (“JAL or the Company”), resulting in the following key deliverables for the year:
-
Finalisation of the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) in July 2020 demonstrating an economically robust, high quality hard coking coal development opportunity with a 15-year mine life, a competitive operating and capital cost structure and access to existing common user rail and port infrastructure
-
• The Crown Mountain Environmental Assessment Certificate Application (”EA Application”) was progressed with completion of all baseline work, terrestrial
-
Review of modelling, ground water and surface water modelling and further
-
Operations advancement in other modelling efforts including air dispersion, noise, and human health and ecological studies. The modelling approach and completed models have been the subject of ongoing engagement with Regulators, both Provincial and Federal, and Indigenous nations
-
• Continued engagement with regulators and key stakeholders including Provincial and Federal regulators and the Ktunaxa Nation Council (“KNC”)
-
• Development and broadening of our strategy, including a strategic roadmap to deliver value to shareholders through being commercially focused to deliver growth sustainably with strong stakeholder engagement by:

Jameson Resources Limited | Annual Report 2020-21
oassessment of value add acquisitive growth opportunities after submission of the EA Application. The EA Application for Crown Mountain did experience some delay during the year as a result of the delayed completion of the Bankable Feasibility Study, impacts of Covid- 19 and increased scope to completion predominantly relating to effects assessments and stakeholder consultation. The EA Application is on track to be submitted in the December 2021 quarter. The BFS identified a number of areas of potential optimisation that the Company intends to assess in the future, to maximise the economic outcomes whilst finalising the EA Application. The Yield Optimisation Study, the first of these projects, was undertaken during the year and the results finalised in August 2021. That study confirmed that adoption of a 10.5% ash specification maximised product yield, resulting in increased product coal for export and a 25% improvement in NPV above the 2020 BFS.For further information on the results of the Crown Mountain BFS and Yield Optimsiation Study please see pages 10-16 of the Annual Report. In order to execute on the Company’s strategy, the Company intends to commence building a team to complement the existing skillset and provide a solid foundation from which it can capitalise on whilst developing CrownMountain and for future opportunities as theyarise. |

Remuneration Report
This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for the Key Management Personnel (KMP) of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2021. The information provided in this Remuneration Report has been audited as required by Section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001.
The Remuneration Report details the remuneration arrangements for Key Management Personnel who are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company and the Group, directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the parent company.
| The KMP during the year and at the date of this report are: • Nicole Hollows (Independent Non-Executive Chairman) • Steve van Barneveld (Independent Non-Executive Director) • Joel Nicholls (Executive Director from 1 July 2020 to 28 February 2021 and Non- Executive Director from 1 March 2021) • Michael Gray (ManagingDirector) (commenced 1 March 2021) |

| Key Management | ||
| Personnel | ||
| Jameson’s Remuneration Framework and Policy has been designed to align Executive KMP objectives with shareholder and business objectives. It has regard to shareholders’ interests by: • Focusing Executive KMP on sustained growth and key non-financial drivers of value • Attracting and retaining high calibre Executive KMP. Executive KMP remuneration_comprises two elements: • _Fixed remuneration, and • Performance linked or “at risk” remuneration (short and long term components). Fixed Remuneration Fixed remuneration is a function of size and complexity of the role, individual responsibilities, experience, skills and market remuneration levels. This consists of cash salary, salary sacrifice items, employer superannuation, annual leave provisions and any fringe benefits tax charges related to employee benefits. The opportunity to salary sacrifice benefits on a tax-compliant basis is available. The Board determines an appropriate level of fixed remuneration for the senior executives following recommendations from the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee has the delegated authority from the Board to engage independent remuneration consultants as it sees fit. At Risk Remuneration • Annual Cash Bonus – Short Term Incentive Plan (STIP) Under the plan, participants have an opportunity to receive an annual cash bonus calculated as a percentage of their total fixed remuneration (“TFR”) and conditional on the achievement of short-term financial and non-financial performance measures at both a corporate and individual level. • Long Term Incentives (LTI) In FY2020, the company adopted an Employee Incentive Plan (“EIP”) for Directors and Executives. The EIP allows the company to grant options to eligible participants and it serves as the vehicle for long term incentive offering to provide incentive and reward for eligible participants and align the interests of participants more closely with the interests of the shareholders. No equity incentives were issued to Executives during the reporting period. |

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. REPORTING ENTITY
Jameson Resources Limited (‘the Company’) is an Australian publicly traded company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’). The Company is focused on the development of the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project, located in British Columbia, Canada. The address of the registered office is Level 4, Deutsche Bank Place, 126 Phillip Street, Sydney NSW 2000.
The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 6th of September 2021.
2. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements of the Group are general purpose financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021 prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001.
The consolidated financial statements of Jameson Resources Ltd also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis and are presented in Australian dollars which is the functional currency of the Group, unless otherwise noted.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this consolidated financial report have been consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
New or mandated Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
In the year ended 30 June 2021, the Company adopted all the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective from 1 July 2020. It has been determined that there is a no material impact from other revised standards and interpretations.
Principles of consolidation
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the parent entity’s financial statements.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Control exists where the company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
The acquisition of subsidiaries has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The purchase method of accounting involves allocating the cost of the business combination to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements include the results of subsidiaries for the period from their acquisition.
Non-controlling interests are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. Change of the Groups’ interest in subsidiary that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.

NOTE 2 | STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued
Going Concern
This consolidated financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
The Group has incurred a comprehensive loss after tax of $607,537 (2020: $381,803) and had net cash outflows from operations and investing of $5,266,702 (2020: $5,827,287). The Group has no source of operating cash inflows other than interest income and funds sourced through capital raising activities. At 30 June 2021, the Group has cash and cash equivalents totalling $2,605,447 (2020: $2,615,287) and net working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $2,200,744 (2020: $2,325,317).
The Group continued to actively manage its operating and overhead expenditure by successfully completing a capital raising of $4,747,800 (before costs) in July 2020.
The Group’s cashflow forecast for the period ending 30 September 2022 reflects that the Group will be required to raise additional working capital during the 12-month period. The Directors consider that the Group is a going concern and recognises that additional funding is required to ensure that it can continue to fund its operations during the twelve-month period from the date of this report. The Directors believe that such additional funding, as the Group has successfully accessed previously, can be derived from raising additional capital to fund the Group’s ongoing operational and working capital requirements, as and when required. Accordingly, the Directors believe that the Group will be able to obtain sufficient funding to enable it to continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt that basis in the preparation of the financial report.
Should the group not be successful in obtaining adequate funding, there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt as to the ability of the group to continue as a going concern and whether it will be able to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
Segment Information
(i) Identification of reportable segments
The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the chief operating decision maker (being the Board of Directors) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.
The Company is managed primarily on the basis of evaluation of its coal exploration tenements in Canada and its corporate activities. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis.
Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic characteristics.
(ii) Types of reportable segments
Coal exploration and evaluation
Segment assets, including acquisition cost of exploration licenses and all expenses related to the licenses in Canada are reported on in this segment.
Corporate
Corporate, including treasury, corporate and regulatory expenses arising from operating an ASX listed entity. Segment assets, including cash and cash equivalents, and investments in financial assets are reported in this segment.
(iii) Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments
Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief operating decision maker with respect to operating segments are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Company.

Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of economic value from the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.
Segment liabilities
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables.
Foreign Currency Translation
Both the functional and presentation currency of Jameson Resources Limited is Australian dollars. Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.
The functional currency of the foreign operations, NWP Coal Canada and Dunlevy Energy Inc is Canadian dollars, “CAD”.
Foreign currency transactions
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average exchange rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity.
The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of.
Significant accounting estimates and judgement
The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are:
(i) Exploration and evaluation expenditure:
The future recoverability of capitalised exploration expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset and expenditure through sale.
Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices.
To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which this determination is made.
In addition, exploration and evaluation is capitalised if activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. To the extent it is determined in the future that this capitalised expenditure should be written off, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which this determination is made.

(ii) Share-based payment transactions:
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using a Black and Scholes model, using assumptions provided by the Company. The fair value is expensed over the vesting period.
Determination of fair values
Several of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. When measuring fair value of an asset or liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible.
The fair value of an asset or liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their best economic interest. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in the highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
-
Level 1 – quoted (unadjusted) market price in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
-
Level 2 – valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; and
-
Level 3 – valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or liability might be categorised in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
Other revenue
Other revenue is the Cashflow Boost provided by the Australian Federal Government as a result of Covid 19.
Income Tax
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are required to be measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply in the future income year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. The Directors have determined that the deferred tax balances be measured at the tax rates stated.
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the statement of financial position date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
- when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 | STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued
-
when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.
-
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST (Goods and Services Tax) except:
-
when 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, which 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 statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows 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.
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as noncurrent.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the statement of cash flows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents

also includes bank overdrafts, which are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. Cash at bank earns interest at floating rates based on daily bank deposit rates.
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.
The Reclamation Bonds are a condition of the Mines Act Permit for the Crown Mountain and Dunlevy Projects. The Bonds are placed as security in the form of a certified cheque or held in trust at a nominated bank as a Safe Keeping Agreement.
The Bonds are returned once the BC Ministry of Energy and Mines has inspected the site following completion of exploration and reclamation.
Exploration and evaluation assets
Exploration and evaluation expenditure in relation to separate areas of interest for which rights of tenure are current is carried forward as an asset in the statement of financial position where it is expected that the expenditure will be recovered through the successful development and exploitation of an area of interest, or by its sale; or exploration activities are continuing in an area and activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable estimate of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. Where a project or an area of interest has been abandoned, the expenditure incurred thereon is written off in the year in which the decision is made.
The recoupment of costs carried forward in relation to areas of interest in the exploration and evaluation phases is dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation or sale of the respective areas.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability, and facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the recoverable amount. Such indicators of impairment include the following:
-
the right to explore has expired during the period or will expire in the near future and is not expected to be renewed
-
substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor planned
-
exploration and evaluation in the specific area has not led to the discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral resources and the entity has decided to discontinue such activities in the specific area, or
-
sufficient data exists to indicate that the carrying amount of the asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale even if development in the specific area is likely to proceed.
-
For the purpose of impairment testing, exploration and evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units consistent with exploration activity. The cash generating units are not larger than the areas of interest.
Property, Plant and equipment
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment.
When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and is recognised net within other income/other expenses in profit or loss.
(i) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value. Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an

NOTE 2 | STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued
item of property, plant and equipment since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term.
The estimated useful lives for the current and prior period are as follows:
-
Plant and equipment – over 5 to 15 years (diminishing value)
-
Computer equipment – 3 years (diminishing value)
The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.
For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs, unless the asset's value in use can be estimated to be close to its fair value.
An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating units exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount with the impairment loss recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
(ii) Derecognition and disposal
An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.
Investments and other financial assets
Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the initial measurement, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair value depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on both the business model within which such assets are held and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset unless an accounting mismatch is being avoided.
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or have been transferred and the consolidated entity has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is no reasonable expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, its carrying value is written off.
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets not measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Typically, such financial assets will be either:
-
i) held for trading, where they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the short-term with an intention of making a profit, or a derivative; or
-
ii) designated as such upon initial recognition where permitted. Fair value movements are recognised in profit or loss.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include equity investments which the consolidated entity intends to hold for the foreseeable future and has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon initial recognition.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 | STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued
(iii) Impairment of financial assets
The consolidated entity recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the consolidated entity's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain.
Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset's lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective.
Impairment of non-financial assets
Non-financial assets are reviewed 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 carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-inuse is the present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to form a cash-generating unit.
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature, they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
Employee benefits
(iv) Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
(v) Other long-term employee benefits
The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
(vi) Defined contribution superannuation expense
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Equity settled transactions
Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services.

Jameson Resources Limited | Annual Report 2020-21
Financial Report Year Ended 30 June 2021
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 | STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued
The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions.
The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods.
If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.
If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited.
If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a modification.
Issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Earnings per share
Basic profit/(loss) per share is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted profit/(loss) per share is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:
-
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends
-
the after-tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses, and
-
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
19. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are market risk, currency risk and interest rate risk. This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital.
The Board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and short-term deposits. The main purpose of the financial instruments is to earn the maximum amount of interest at a low risk to the Group. The Group also has other financial instruments such as trade debtors and creditors which arise directly from its operations.
(a) Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments.
The Group is exposed to movements in market interest rates on short term deposits. The policy is to monitor the interest rate yield curve out to 120 days to ensure a balance is maintained between the liquidity of cash assets and the interest rate return. The Group does not have short- or long-term debt, and therefore this risk is minimal.
(b) Currency Risk
Foreign exchange risk arises from future commitments, assets and liabilities that are denominated in a currency that is not the functional currency of the Group. The Group deposits are denominated in both Canadian and Australian dollars. Bathurst provides funding at agreed Canadian amounts for each Tranche of funding. At the year end the majority of deposits were held in Canadian dollars. Currently, there are no foreign exchange programs in place. Based upon the above, the impact of reasonably possible changes in foreign exchange rates for the Group and the minimal cash balance in NWP at 30 June, and any movement is not material.
(c) Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk arises when the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuates due to changes in market interest rates. The table below shows a sensitivity analysis of the Group’s exposure to such changes.
(d) Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted the policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.
The Group operates in the mining exploration sector; it therefore does not supply products and have trade receivables and is not exposed to credit risk in relation to trade receivables. The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Company of counterparties having similar characteristics.
The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk at each balance date in relation to each class of recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any allowance for doubtful debts, of those assets as indicated in the statement of financial position. The maximum credit risk exposure of the Group at 30 June 2021 is nil (2020: nil). There are no impaired receivables at 30 June 2021 (2020: Nil).
(e) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows on a rolling monthly basis and entering into supply contracts which can be cancelled within a short timeframe. The Group does not have any significant liquidity risk as the Group does not have any collateral debts.
(f) Capital Management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 19 | FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES continued
Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, being mineral exploration, it does not have ready access to credit facilities and therefore is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements, with the primary sources of project funding to date being the investment by Bathurst Resources Limited (“Bathurst”) and raising funds from equity markets. Accordingly, the objective of the Group’s capital risk management is to balance the current working capital position against the requirements to meet progressing evaluation work (such as Bankable Feasibility Study and Environment Assessment Certificate Application), project related costs and corporate overheads. To date this has been achieved in part by maintaining open communication with Bathurst to ensure the appropriate liquidity to meet anticipated operating requirements for which Bathurst contributes and ensuring that sufficient funding is available in Jameson Resources Limited to achieve the strategic objectives as set out by the Board. Going forward, operations budget and cashflow forecasts are monitored to ensure sufficient funding for Jameson to meet expenditure requirements given that Bathurst have advised they will no longer be sole funding contributions required for the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project.
The directors consider that the carrying value of the financial assets and financial liabilities recognised in the consolidated financial statement approximate their fair value.

23. NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST and AGREEMENT WITH BATHURST RESOURCES LIMITED
On 29 June 2018, the Company and NWP Coal Canada Ltd entered into an Investment Agreement and Shareholders Agreement with Bathurst Resources Limited, a coal operator in New Zealand.
Key terms of the agreements are as follows:
Initial payment of C$4 million (received 13 July 2018) and converted to 8,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in NWP Coal Canada Inc., for an initial 8% interest
-
a Tranche One Option of C$7.5 million; (completed 2 Oct 2019), for a further 12% interest in ordinary shares
-
a Tranche Two Option cash. advance of up to C$5 million (C$2.6 million drawn) and converted to 2.2% Class B Preference Shares. Class B preference shares automatically convert into fully paid ordinary shares of NWP upon the completion of the Tranche Two Option
-
a final Tranche Two Option of C$107.4 million (C$110 million less any amounts drawn under the Tranche Two Option cash advance).
As a result of the above funding, Bathurst’s ownership interest in NWP as at 1 July 2020 amounted to 22.2% ownership interest, 20% ordinary shares and 2.2% Class B Preference shares.
From 1 July 2020, Jameson and Bathurst contribute cash calls for NWP in their ordinary share ownership interests, being 80% and 20% respectively. The funding is currently recorded as unissued shares, which will be converted in the future. The Bathurst’s noncontrolling interest in NWP for the period is a net loss of $50,702 as a result of NWP reporting a net loss of $228,389.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the members of Jameson Resources Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Jameson Resources Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2021 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
-
b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. 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.

Key Audit Matter
==> picture [165 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Carrying value of exploration and evaluation Note 7
The Group has capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure of $32,947,812 as at 30 June 2021 in relation to its Canadian coal projects.
Our audit procedures determined that the carrying value of exploration and evaluation expenditure was a key audit matter as it was an area which required the most audit effort, required the most communication with those charged with governance and was determined to be of key importance to the users of the financial statements.
Our procedures included but were not limited to the following:
-
We obtained an understanding of the key processes associated with management’s review of the exploration and evaluation asset carrying values;
-
- We considered the Directors’ assessment of potential indicators of impairment;
-
We obtained evidence that the Group has current rights to tenure of its areas of interest;
-
We discussed with management the nature of planned ongoing activities;
-
We tested additions to exploration expenditure on a sample basis during the year;
-
We enquired with management, and reviewed ASX announcements and minutes of Directors’ meetings to ensure that the Group had not decided to discontinue exploration and evaluation at its areas of interest; and
-
We examined the disclosures made in the financial report.
Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and
Page 74 of 80
==> picture [164 x 47] intentionally omitted <==
using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
