Year in Review
FY 20 Company entering Voluntary Administration (VA) in March 2019. Throughout FY 2020, production continued primarily from the 1320 and 1310 levels using hand held methods. A major portion of the production was from remnant mining around old workings.
No mine capital development was completed during FY 2020 other than what was required for immediate access to identified mining blocks in an around old workings. Some diamond drilling was done to provide greater confidence for potential investors as the Company continued on acceptance by the creditors of a Deed of Company Arrangement (DoCA). The diamond drilling focussed on expanding the Queens ore block delineation and identifying ore sources around the 1320 level.
With an increased gold price and changed mining methods, focusing on higher grade hand held production, much needed capital was invested in the process plant. The entire elution circuit was replaced including boiler, heat exchanger, column and piping. Considerable maintenance work in other parts of the process plant included the replacement of the pinion, girth gear linishing, a small TSF lift, and structural steel repairs through the plant.
A positive cashflow also allowed for considerable ground support installation in the primary development at A1 Mine. Union Hill mine remained on care and maintenance for the period although 200t of ore was extracted during Q4.
Gold Processing Plant at Maldon in Central Victoria, producing a total of 8,089 ounces of gold with an average grade of 10.92 g/t Au.
A total of 860m of diamond drilling was completed which comprised 237m of LTK60 diameter Kempe drilling and 623m of NQ-2 drilling. These programs comprised grade control definition, targeted structural and infrastructure service holes. These drilling programs informed short and longer term mining plans.

Varied DoCA
On 8 July 2019 the Deed Administrators received correspondence from Avior advising that it was their opinion that the First DoCA could not be completed due to an inability to raise the capital under the terms of the First DoCA and as such a variation would be required. Avior required an alternate method to raise capital due to unforeseen external economic conditions, including but not limited to:
-
An introduction of royalties on gold production charged by the Victorian State Government in January 2020;

A further extension for the effectuation of the Amended Varied DoCA to 24 January 2020 was approved between Avior and the Deed Administrators on 12 December 2019, to allow for Austar to complete its capital raisings, as Austar raising up to $4.4 million in capital was a condition precedent to the Amended Varied DoCA, and $2.4 million of this capital was to be contributed to the Amended Varied DoCA.
On 11 January 2020, Mining Lending entered into an agreement to assign its debt to Austar.
The Deed Administrators consented to the assignment of the debt subject to a further DoCA being submitted and:
-
receiving a bank guarantee/cash for $0.3 million to fund trading costs and operations to the next furthe meetings and effectuation of any revised DoCA approved by creditors; and
-
drawing of their remuneration approved by creditors and costs (including legal costs) from the cash
This assignment of debt to Austar did not complete due to:
-
issues arising between Austar and Mining Lending in relation to the assignment of the debt; and
-
Austar not complying with the terms of the assignment, by failing to provide the bank guarantee/cash
For the reasons detailed above, the Amended Varied DoCA could no longer be effectuated.

-
$2.01 million on effectuation of the Oldfield DoCA. This contribution was increased to $2.36 million after it was determined to honour the section 560 loans provided by Gandel to the Group; million at 30 June 2021 (i.e. conditional distribution); and

Oldfield DoCA extensions

The third extension to 31 December 2020 was to allow the appeal to the Gandel Decision to be heard and subsequent decision to be handed down.
Ability to complete
The Deed Administrators had concerns that the Oldfield DoCA would be unable to be effectuated due to a number of factors, including:
-
Secured Creditors (excluding Gandel) stated that they were not supportive of receiving equity in accordance with the Oldfield DoCA and would not release their security over Centennial at effectuation, being a condition to the Oldfield DoCA;
-
the Court decision in the Gandel Proceedings that Gandel holds security over the A1 Mine (the Oldfield DoCA treated Gandel as an unsecured creditor);
-
both Oldfield and Gandel indicating they would appeal to the High Court if they were unsuccessful in relation to the Gandel Decision which would cause further delays and risks to the trading operations; and
-
that the second distribution to creditors (whilst always contingent) would not proceed given the estimated timeline to complete the Oldfield DoCA given that the Gandel Proceedings were appealed

The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. Historical cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. Assets have been valued at the expected net returns on a distressed sale basis.
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars.
The company is an unlisted public company, incorporated in Australia and operating in the state of Victoria. The the mining and development of gold bearing ore and the processing of mined gold ore, within central and eastern Victoria.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Group had a working capital deficiency of $20,917,345 at 30 June 2020 and incurred a loss for the year of $8,543,946. The net cash outflow from operating and investing activities was $268,146.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation (continued)
The Varied DoCA was executed on 27 September 2019 by the Deed Administrators and Avior. An overview is detailed in note 21. On 21 October 2019, the Deed Administrators received correspondence from Avior advising that it was their opinion that the Varied DoCA was required to be amended further. Avior consequently provided a proposal to amend the Varied DoCA to the Deed Administrators of 28 October 2019.
The Amended Varied DoCA was approved at a meeting of creditors held on 15 November 2019 and the Amended Varied DoCA was subsequently executed on 20 November 2019.
A further extension for the effectuation of the Amended Varied DoCA to 24 January 2020 was approved between Avior and the Deed Administrators on 12 December 2019, to allow for Austar to complete its capital raisings, as Austar raising up to $4.4 million in capital was a condition precedent to the Amended Varied DoCA, and $2.4 million of this capital was to be contributed to the Amended Varied DoCA.
On 11 January 2020, Mining Lending entered into an agreement to assign its debt to Austar.
On 21 January 2020, a DoCA proposal was received from Oldfield Investments Pty Ltd atf Oldfield Family Trust precedents to the Oldfield DoCA proposal was the acceptance by the Deed Administrators of a loan agreement with Oldfield Investments to refinance the Mining Lending facility in full. The Deed Administrators entered into a t was refinanced in full on 22 January 2020 with Oldfield Investments becoming a secured creditor of the Group.
The Oldfield DoCA was approved by creditors at meetings held on 12 February 2020. However, on 26 February re-enlivened the proceedings in the Federal Court of Australia vid 688 of Investments agreed with Gandel that the DoCA would be amended by way voluntary administration loans to the Group to enable employee entitlements to be paid, which has a statutory priority pursuant to section 560 of the Corporations Act.
On 28 February 2020, the Oldfield DoCA was executed between the Group, Oldfield Investments and the Deed Administrators.

pursuant to which Kaiser have been granted an exclusive right to acquire 100% of the issued capital of the GRR
hold 100% of the issued capital of the Group (Centennial Mining Ltd). The Kaiser transaction is conditional upon Kaiser obtaining all necessary regulatory and shareholder approval required, including satisfying all ASX requirements for the reinstatement to the official listing of KAU shares on the ASX. The key terms of the Kaiser transaction is that Kaiser will issue 53,333,353 shares at a deemed issue price of $0.30 per share for a total deemed consideration of $16,000,000, which will be issued pro rata to all of the shareholders of GRR based on their respective interest.
Conditions precedent to the transaction are as follows:
-
Kaiser obtaining all necessary regulatory and shareholder approval required, including satisfying all ASX requirements for the reinstatement to the official listing of KAU shares on the ASX;
-
Effectuation of the Centennial DoCa such that GRR has acquired 100% of the issued capital of the Group; and
-
Kaiser receiving valid binding and irrevocable applications for not less than $5,000,000 pursuant to a capital raising for the issue of 16,666,667 fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.30 per share.
The Deed Administrators believe that the ability for the Group to continue to remain as a going concern is dependent upon, amongst other factors, the following key assumptions:
-
the DOCA effectuating and the recapitalisation completing on or about 31 December 2020;
-
gold production from the A1 Mine at rates and costs generally consistent with those contained in the 2020 financial report; and
-
the price received for gold sold by the Group being higher than the prevailing cost of gold production at A1 Mine.
To support this view, a comprehensive mine forecast and cashflow model shows that, subject to continued positive resource definition drilling and any unforeseen events, it is expected that continued mining, processing and sale of gold will be successful and will enable the Group to continue as a going concern.
as a going concern and therefore, whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements.
Based on the above, the Deed Administrators have reasonable grounds to believe that the DOCA will effectuate on or about 31 December 2020, and that the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due, and the Deed Administrators consider that the going concern basis of preparation to be appropriate for these financial statements.
Should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements and that the financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.
(b) Adoption of new and revised standards
Standards and Interpretations applicable to 30 June 2020
In the year ended 30 June 2020, the Deed Administrators have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period. The Group has adopted all of the new and revised standards and interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current reporting period. The adoption of new and revised standards and interpretations has had no effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior periods.
Centennial Mining Limited (Subject to Deed of Company Arrangement) Annual Financial Report 30 June 2020
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(b) Adoption of new and revised standards AASB 16 Leases
AASB 16 introduces a single lessee on-balance sheet accounting model, eliminating the distinction between operating and financing leases under AASB 117, and requires recognition of an ROU asset and a lease liability for most lease contracts with a lease term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. AASB 16 applies a control model to the identification of leases, distinguishing between a lease and service contract on the basis of whether the customer controls the asset.
Transition approach on adoption of AASB 16
The Group adopted AASB 16 on the date of initial application, 1 July 2019, applying the modified retrospective approach permitted by the standard. Under this approach, ROU assets and lease liabilities are calculated as at 1 July 2019 for operating leases existing at 30 June 2019 and comparative information is not restated, with any cumulative effect of initially applying AASB 16 recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on 1 July 2019. The comparative information continues to be reported under AASB 117 and Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease (IFRIC 4).
The impact on the Group on adoption did not result in any adjustment in the financial report. As the Group was in administration at the time of adoption of AASB 16, all operating leases were on a month-by-month basis in agreement with lessors with the understanding that should the Company enter liquidation that leased assets would no longer be utilised. Additionally, assets were not leased at consistent rates across this period as asset utilisation fluctuated from lessors. As such, it has been determined that all leases for the financial year ended 30 June 2020 should be accounted for as short-term lease expenses in the statement of profit and loss.
Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life.
Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any re-measurement of lease liabilities.
The entity has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.
Lease Liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the entity's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments are comprised of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.
Practical expedients applied
In applying AASB 16 or the first time, the entity has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:
the accounting for operating leases with a remaining lease term of less than 12 months as at 1 July 2019 as short-term leases.
Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted
The Deed Administrators have also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the year ended 30 June 2020. As a result of this review the Deed Administrators have determined that there are no Standards or Interpretations issued but not yet effective that impact the Group.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(c) Statement of compliance
The financial report was authorised for issue on 4 December 2020.
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
(d) Significant accounting estimates and judgements
The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
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 using a Black and Scholes model, using the assumptions detailed in Note 16.
Exploration and evaluation costs carried forward
The Group capitalises expenditure relating to exploration and evaluation where it is considered likely to be recoverable or where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. While there are certain areas of interest from which no reserves have been extracted, the Deed Administrators are of the continued belief that such expenditure should not be written off, since feasibility studies in such areas have not yet been concluded.
Development assets
The recoverability of the carrying amount of mine development assets carried forward has been reviewed by the Deed Administrators. In conducting the review, the recoverable amount has been assessed by reference to the
During the current year a valuation has been performed by an external expert to value the development assets held by the Company as at 30 June 2020 and it is noted that the current written down value approximates the fair value less costs to sell based on a comparable market approach. Therefore, no further impairment has been recorded in the current financial year. For prior year impairment, please refer to details disclosed in note 10.
Development assets represent the accumulation of all exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred in respect of areas of interest in which mining has commenced or in the process of commencing. When further development expenditure is incurred in respect of mine property after the commencement of production, such expenditure is carried forward as part of the mine property only when substantial future economic benefits are thereby established, otherwise such expenditure is classified as part of the cost of production.
The net carrying value of each area of interest is reviewed regularly and to the extent to which this value exceeds its recoverable amount, the excess is either fully provided against or written off in the financial year in which this is determined.
Units-of-production depreciation
Estimated recoverable reserves are used in determining the depreciation and/or amortisation of mineral specific assets. This results in a depreciation/amortisation charge proportional to the depletion of the anticipated remaining
and to present assessments of economically recoverable reserves of the mine property at which the asset is located. These calculations require the use of estimates and assumptions.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(d) Significant accounting estimates and judgements (continued)
Inventories
Costs incurred in, or benefits, of the productive process are accumulated as stockpiles, gold in process and product inventory. Net realisable value tests are performed at least annually and represent the estimated future sales price of the product, based on prevailing spot metal prices at the reporting date, less estimated costs to complete production and bring the product to sale. Stockpiles are measured by estimating the number of tonnes added and removed from the stockpile, the number of contained gold ounces based on assay data, and the estimated recovery percentage based on the expected processing method. Stockpile tonnages are verified by periodic surveys. The metallurgic balancing process is constantly monitored and the recovery estimates are refined based on reconciliations with actual results.
Rehabilitation provision
A provision has been made for the present value of anticipated costs for future rehabilitation of land explored or mined. The consolidated entity's mining and exploration activities are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. The consolidated entity recognises management's best estimate for assets retirement obligations and site rehabilitations in the period in which they are incurred. Actual costs incurred in the future periods could differ materially from the estimates. Additionally, future changes to environmental laws and regulations, life of mine estimates and discount rates could affect the carrying amount of this provision.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have, on the company based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the company operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the company unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets
The consolidated entity assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the consolidated entity and to the particular asset that may lead to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves fair value less costs of disposal or value-in-use calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates and assumptions.
Ore Reserve and Resource estimate
The group estimates its ore reserves and mineral resources based on information compiled by a Competent Persons (as defined in the 2012 edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves [the JORC Code]). Resources determined in this way are taken into account in the calculation of depreciation, amortisation, impairment, rehabilitation and environmental expenditure. In estimating the remaining life of the mine for the purposes of amortisation and depreciation calculations, due regard is given to limitations which could arise from the potential for changes in technology, demand, and other issues which are inherently difficult to estimate over a lengthy time frame.
(e) Provision for restoration and rehabilitation
protection of the environment. The Group recognises best estimate for asset retirement obligations in the period in which they are incurred. Actual costs incurred in the future periods could differ materially from the estimates. Additionally, future changes to environmental laws and regulations, life of mine estimates and discount rates could affect the carrying amount of the provision. A provision for restoration and rehabilitation is recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of activities undertaken, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably. The estimated future obligations include the costs of abandoning sites, removing facilities and restoring the affected areas. The provision for future restoration costs is the best estimate of the present value of the expenditure required to settle the restoration obligation at the balance date. Future restoration costs are reviewed annually and any changes in the estimate are reflected in the present value of the restoration provision at each balance date. The initial estimate of the restoration and rehabilitation provision is capitalised into the cost of the related asset and amortised on the same basis as the related asset, unless the present obligation arises from the production of inventory in the period, in which case the amount is included in the cost of production for the period. Changes in the estimate of the provision for restoration and rehabilitation are treated in the same manner, except that the unwinding of the effect of discounting on the provision is recognised as a finance cost rather than being capitalised into the cost of the related asset.

(f) Exploration and evaluation
-
Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where the following conditions are satisfied:
-
(i) the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and
-
(ii) at least one of the following conditions is also met:
-
(a) the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploration of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or
-
(b) exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the balance date reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.
Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore, studies, exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of depreciation and amortised of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities. General and administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where they are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which it has been allocated being no larger than the relevant area of interest) is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in previous years.
Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance is then reclassified to development.
(g) Development assets
Development assets are recognised at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Exploration and evaluation expenditure is reclassified to development assets once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the related mineral resource is demonstrable. Where commercial production in an area of interest has commenced, the associated costs together with any forecast future capital expenditure necessary to develop proved and probable reserves are amortised over the estimated economic life of the mine on a units-of-production basis.
Changes in factors such as estimates of proved and probable reserves that affect unit-of-production calculations are dealt with on a prospective basis.
(h) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of Centennial Mining the Company owns 100% of the share capital of all its subsidiaries it has full control of each entity.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. 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.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. Investments in subsidiaries held by Centennial Mining Limited are accounted for at cost in the financial statements of the parent entity less any impairment charges.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting involves recognising at acquisition date, separately from goodwill, the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquired. The identifiable assets and the liabilities assumed are measured at their acquisition date fair values.

(k) Revenue recognition
Sales revenue is recognised when:
-
Control of the goods has been transferred to the customer, which occurs when physical goods are delivered to the customer;
-
The customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership through the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the goods;
-
Payment is due from the customer.
The amount of revenue recognised reflects the consideration to which the Group is, or expects to be, entitled in exchange for the goods. Revenue is measured at the transaction price agreed under a sales contract.
Gold bullion and silver sales
Revenue from gold bullion and silver sales is recognised at the time of physical delivery on the settlement date, when control of the physical goods passes to the customer, satisfying the sole performance obligation to deliver gold bullion and silver. For gold bullion and silver sales, the transfer of control is generally at the point in time when the gold bullion and silver is credited to the metal account of the customer on the settlement date.
(l) Income Tax
sed
on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary difference and to unused tax losses.
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 balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:
-
when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
-
when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
-
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.
-
When the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries 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.
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.
Tax consolidation legislation
Centennial Mining Limited its 100% owned Australian resident subsidiaries have implemented the tax consolidation legislation. Current and deferred tax amounts are accounted for in each individual entity as if each entity continued to act as a taxpayer on its own.
Centennial Mining Limited recognises its own current and deferred tax amounts and those current tax liabilities, current tax assets and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax credits and unused tax losses which it has assumed from its controlled entities within the tax consolidated Group.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(l) Income Tax (continued)
Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts payable or receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group. Any difference between the amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) controlled entities in the tax consolidated Group.
(m) Deferred tax
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.
(n) Other taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST 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.
(o) Impairment of assets
The Group assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of
its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease).
An assessment is also made at each balance date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates unt since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
Due to the company entering administration and assessments by a number of knowledgeable independent parties, the board decided to value the assets based on a distressed sale scenario, which resulted in significant impairment costs.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(p) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position.
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
(q) Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold in the ordinary course of business. They are generally due for settlement within 30 days and therefore are all classified as current. Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are recognised at fair value. The Group holds the trade receivables with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The Group applies the AASB 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables. To measure expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before 30 June 2019 and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forwardlooking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivables. As at balance date, the amount due from customers was considered to be immaterial to justify calculation of an expected credit loss provision to be put in place.
- (r) Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary of selling the final product.
(s) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Similarly, when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation.
With the exception of the Maldon Mill, depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:
Motor vehicles over 8 years Office equipment over 3 to 10 years Plant & equipment over 5 to 20 years
Exploration, evaluation and development assets are amortised on a units of production basis being based on tonnes mined relevant to the estimated total indicated and inferred resource of the A1 mine and Union Hill mines.
Maldon Mill is depreciated on a units of production basis being based on tonnes processed relative to the estimated total indicated and inferred resource of the A1 mine and Union Hill mine.
The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.
(t) Financial assets
Classification and measurement of financial assets are based on the business model in which they are managed and their contractual cash flow characteristics. On initial recognition, financial assets, other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments, are classified as measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) or fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
(i) Financial assets at amortised cost
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
-
it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
-
its contractual terms give rise to cash flows on specified dates that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
For financial assets subsequently measured at amortised cost, any interest income, impairment losses, foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss.

(t) Financial assets (continued)
(ii) Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets whose contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest, or are not classified as measured at amortised cost of FVOCI, are measure at FVTPL. Derivative financial assets are measured at FVTPL. For financial assets subsequently measured at FVTPL, net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group assess, on a forward-looking basis, the expected credit losses associated with debt instruments measured at amortised cost and FVOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards of ownership are transferred. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.
(u) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost of FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as measured at FVTPL if it is classified as held for trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in profit or loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition
Financial liabilities are derecognised when they are extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expire. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.
(v) Trade and other payables
Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months.
(w) Interest-bearing loans and borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. The fair value of the liability portion of a convertible note is determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent non-convertible note. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or maturity of the note. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option. This is
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
(x) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as an interest expense.
(y) Employee entitlements
Annual leave
Liabilities accruing to employees in respect of annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the balance are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
Liabilities accruing to employees in respect of annual leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the balance date are recognised in non-
They are measured as the present value of the estimated future outflow to be made by the Group.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(y) Employee entitlements (continued)
Long service leave
The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the balance date. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures, and period of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the balance date on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
(z) Share-based payment transactions
Equity settled transactions:
The Group provides benefits to employees (including senior executives) of the Group in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions).
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using a Black-Scholes model, further details of which are given in Note 16. In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Centennial Mining Limited (market conditions) if applicable.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant persons become fully entitled to the award.
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each balance date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting perio

(aa) Share-based payment transactions (continued)
statement of comprehensive income charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon a market condition.
Where the Company acquires some form of interest in an exploration tenement or an exploration area of interest and the consideration comprises share based payment transactions, the fair value of the equity instruments granted is measured at the grant date. The cost of equity securities is recognised within capitalised mineral exploration and evaluation expenditure, together with a corresponding increase in equity.
(ab) 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.
(ac) Parent entity financial information

Assets pledged as security:
No assets pledged as security as at 30 June 2020 (2019: nil).
(i) Impairment of property, plant and equipment
During the year, the property, plant and equipment held by the Group were professionally valued. The valuation presented to the Group noted a fair market value for continued use of assets approximates the written down values at period end. As a result, no impairment has been recognised in the current year.
In the 2019 financial year, the same valuation exercise was undertaken, identifying that a large amount of property, plant and equipment was impaired at year end. As such, an impairment charge was recognised in the 2019 financial year as detailed in the above note.

| Balance at end of year | 250,000 | 600,000 |
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.
Impairment of exploration and evaluation assets
During the 2019 financial year the recoverable amounts for the Nuggetty Reef, Pearl Croydon and Specimen Reef tenements were assessed to be less than the carrying amounts of these assets, which resulted in the assets being written down to their recoverable amounts. These three tenements were valued at $600,000 cumulatively.

| Impairment | - | (18,996,640) |
| Balance at end of year | 4,925,172 | 6,380,000 |
In the normal course of business development assets and associated plant and equipment will be recouped through the successful production and sale of gold from the respective properties. Due to ongoing operating losses and the Company being entered into administration during the prior financial year, a valuation was undertaken by RPM Global of the estimated value range of the development and exploration assets as at 30 June 2019. RPM noted that the distressed nature of the assets has accounted for the likelihood of a discount expected on the value by any prospective buyer of the assets which has driven the value down. The valuation performed on a fair value less costs to sell basis resulted in significant impairment costs ($18,996,640) to development assets captured in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the 2019 financial year.
A subsequent valuation has been performed to value the development assets held by the Company as at 30 June 2020 and it is noted that the current written down value approximates the valuation received, therefore no further impairment has been recorded against these balances in the current financial year.

NOTE 15: RESERVES
Share-based payments reserve
The share-based payments reserve is used to record the value of equity benefits provided to Deed Administrators and employees as part of their remuneration and to other parties for services rendered and in connection with raising capital and acquisition of subsidiaries. Refer to Note 16 for further details.
On 7 October 2019 all outstanding options were cancelled by the Deed Administrators, KordaMentha. For the year ended 30 June 2019, all unvested options were expensed in full, with a total share based payment expense of $901,963 recognised and a closing share based payment reserve balance of $4,651,823, due to factors such as change of control events causing vesting, along with cancellation events causing accelerated vesting of calculated expense.
As all options have been cancelled during the financial year, management have determined it appropriate to transfer all costs contained within the Share-based payments reserve to Retained Earnings.
NOTE 16: SHARE BASED PAYMENTS
No share-based payments were entered into in the current period. All options outstanding at 30 June 2019 were cancelled on 7 October 2019.
NOTE 17: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(c) Financial risk management objectives
The Group is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk as a
i) 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 a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.
The credit risk of liquid funds is limited because the counterparty is a bank with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies. Apart from credit risk on liquid funds the Group does not have any significant risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics.
ii) Liquidity Risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate banking facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows.

Interest rate risk sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below has been determined on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the balance date and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period.
net loss would increase by $46,783 (2019: decrease $25,872). There would be a corresponding effect on equity.
Market risk
The Group s activities expose it to the financial risks of changes in commodity prices. A 5% change in the gold price would have changed the result for the year by $916,886 (2019: $1,111,902) and changed the value of inventory by $36,434 (2019: $21,290).
NOTE 18: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Capital commitments and contingencies
There were no capital commitments as at 30 June 2020 or 30 June 2019. As at the date of this report, the Company has a contingent liability in respect of an outstanding dispute for equipment hire with a party to the DoCA for amounts claimed to be due to the equipment provider. The potential undiscounted amount of total payments that the Group could be required to make if there was an adverse decision related to the claim is estimated to be approximately $160,000 before interest charges of 6.25%.
Short-term lease commitments Company as lessee
Due to the Company being entered into administration during the current financial year, all commercial leases previously entered into have been required to be cancelled and month-by-month rolling operating leases have been entered into. On this basis, the leases are capable of being terminated on short notice and as such, the Company has no short-term lease commitments exceeding one-month.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of Centennial Mining Limited (Subject to Deed of Company Arrangement)
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Qualified opinion
We have audited the financial report of Centennial Mining Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, 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 report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the Administrators’ declaration.
In our opinion, except for the effects of the matters described in the Basis for qualified opinion section of our report, the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
(ii) Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for qualified opinion
Comparatives
Attention is drawn to the comparative figures in the consolidated statement of financial position at 30 June 2019. As stated in Note 1(a) of the financial report, on the 21[st] March 2019, the Company was placed into Administration (subject to a Deed of Company Arrangement) and the duties and responsibilities of the Directors were suspended from the date the Company entered into Administration. Accordingly, the Deed Administrators did not have oversight or control over the Group’s financial reporting systems for the full financial year ended 30 June 2019, including (but not limited to) being able to obtain access to complete accounting records. As a result, we did not have access to the complete books and financial records of the Group, and this caused us to disclaim our audit opinion on the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2019. Our opinion on the current year’s financial report is also modified because of the possible effect of this matter on the comparability of the current period’s figures and the corresponding figures.
Inventory
We were appointed as auditors of the company on 27 November 2020 and thus did not observe the counting of physical inventories at the beginning or end of the financial year ended 30 June 2020. We were unable to satisfy ourselves by alternative means concerning inventory quantities held at 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2020.
BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 79 112 284 787 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee. BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd and BDO Australia Ltd are members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited by guarantee, and form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.
==> picture [78 x 31] intentionally omitted <==
Since opening and closing inventories enter into the determination of the results of operations and cash flows, we were unable to determine whether adjustments might have been necessary in respect of the opening retained earnings, the income for the year reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, and the net cash flows from operating activities reported in the statement of cash flows.
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 Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the Administrators of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the Administrators as at the time of this auditor’s report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 1(a) in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the Group may be unable to realise its assets and discharged its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Other information
The Administrators are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not include the financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and 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 on the other information obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, 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.
==> picture [78 x 31] intentionally omitted <==
Responsibilities of the Administrators for the Financial Report
The Administrators 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 Administrators 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 Administrators are responsible for assessing the ability of the group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Administrators either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has 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 the 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.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
