DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Review of Operations

During the half year ended 31 December 2023 the Company’s exploration programs focused on the Baloo and Kaa prospects at the Mt Rawdon West Project with the following key programs completed:

Mt Rawdon West - Queensland

  • Two surface geochemical programs were completed, and the results reported for 30 rock chips samples, which returned the best results of up to 7.2% Cu, 12.4g/t Au, 94.1g/t Ag, and 0.99% Mo.

  • A soil sampling program was completed to extend the existing historical soil grid, and 249 soil samples collected and reported to the market. The highest values returned were 460ppb Au, 1,430ppb Ag, 781ppm Cu, 9.19ppm Mo, 62.2ppm Pb, 2.3ppm Sn, and 118ppm Zn.

During the period the Company received the full consideration value of the Balfour Project, where a further $300,000 worth of Black Canyon (ASX: BCA) shares were issued. All milestones have been reached in this deal and the full value of $500,000 in shares has been received.

Mt Rawdon West - Gold and Copper Project

Exploring for the next major copper/gold discovery in Queensland

The project is 100% owned, and consists of one granted tenement, which covers 309km[2] of prospective gold and copper ground between Evolution Mining’s Mt Rawdon Gold Mine and SolGold’s Mt Perry Project. The project is located 60km inland from Bundaberg in Queensland, surrounded by major gold and copper resources and deposits, Figure 2.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Rock Chip samples deliver 7.2% copper at surface

Historical exploration has identified copper, gold and molybdenum anomalism and evidence of historical mining on the project. The presence of old workings into a breccia pipe, approximately 150m in width, with minor copper and gold were produced from the old workings and small open pits.

The main mineralising corridor trends south-east to north-west through the tenement, with the main copper trend intersecting this corridor in the centre of the tenement, referred to as the Baloo prospect. Historical exploration work identified a geochemical soil anomaly of Cu-Au-Mo at surface, which coincides with the intersection of these structures, Figure 3.

The focus of exploration on the linking structure between the two major regional faults.

The field program commenced in early August, with the collection of 26 rock chip samples, focused on the main corridor between the two major faults of the region. Rock chip samples were taken from old workings, outcrop and subcrop locations on hills where bedrock/fresh rock was visible, within an area 5.5 km along strike north-east to south-west and 2.6 km across-strike north-south.

Assays from the rock chips dominated in anomalous copper gold and silver, with a few samples returning elevated lead of 1 %, molybdenum of 0.9 % and zinc of 0.3 %. The best rock chip copper sample returned 7.2 % Cu (MRRK020) attributed to the presence of bornite in quartz veins, Figure 4.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Bornite is of considerable interest as it is a copper sulphide mineral often used as an indicator for its proximity to porphyry copper systems.

The best gold result was returned from MRRK017, of 12.4g/t Au, located at the eastern-most end of the program, with no additional data pending further to the east. This result warrants further investigation to the north-east as it is currently open in all directions.

Of significant interest MRRK014 returned highly anomalous copper at 4.2%, as well as gold, silver, lead and zinc. The sample was taken from a small iron-rich outcrop, where quartz veins within a fine-medium grained felsic unit were observed, with minor copper staining in the form of malachite. The sample was taken during the soil program, where no previous exploration work has been completed, and is 500m along strike from any historic indications of mineralisation, Figure 5.

Figure 5. Assay results of rock chip samples at Baloo Prospect return copper values at surface up to 7.2% copper, with existing soils, Killi soil program, and major structures overlaying the regional Total Magnetic Intensity image.

Soil program delivers two significant copper-gold-molybdenum anomalies

The surface soil program focused on the main corridor between the two major faults of the region, referred to as the Baloo prospect previously. This corridor is interpreted as the linking structure between these two major fault systems, and parallel to the Nickos’s Reward gold prospect owned by Sol Gold plc.

A total of 249 soil samples were collected over the corridor, on a 400m x 100m spaced grid. The grid also extended to the north-east, including the area which returned 12.4g/t Au and up to 3.3% Cu in rock chip samples, referred to as the Kaa prospect. An additional four rock chip samples were collected during the collection of soils, from outcrops that that had not been visited previously. These samples returned up to 1.7% copper, infilling mineralisation along the copper gold anomaly.

The results of the soils highlighted two distinct target areas. Firstly, at the Baloo prospect the Cu-Au-Mo anomaly has been extended to a 4km x 1.5km anomaly , and secondly the Kaa prospect which has a 2km x 0.4km Cu-Au-Mo anomaly .

Soil anomalies were determined from assay values greater than 10 times the background for gold, copper and molybdenum. Peak soil assay values returned 460ppb Au, 1.43g/t Ag, 781ppm Cu, & 13.4ppm Mo.

The two prospects are transected by the Mt Rawdon Fault, which is a controlling mineralisation structure of the Mt Rawdon Gold Mine, 22km along strike to the south-east, Figure 7.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

A rich mining history with no drilling to date

The district has a rich mining history with significant gold, copper and molybdenum mines located on the tenement, which have laid dormant for the past 100 years. Eight historical mines were located over a 7km wide corridor across the tenement, with malachite, azurite and bornite (copper mineralisation) observed in outcrop/subcrop and within the wall of old workings and waste piles.

Bornite is of considerable interest as it is a copper sulphide mineral often used as an indicator for its proximity to porphyry copper systems.

The old copper workings at Kaa consist of three substantial adits that extend into a hill on the southern side, and two winzes’ (portals for hauling ore out of the mine to the surface), on the north-eastern side of the hill. The workings cover 370m of strike and 80m in elevation, Figure 8. Visible copper mineralisation was observed at entries to the adits as well as at the ore passes.

Rock chips samples were collected from old mine workings as well as veins in subcrop-outcrop, August 2023.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Granodiorite was identified as the host rock, with varying levels of K-feldspar alteration from weak to intense, mapped in outcrop surrounding the mine. Copper mineralisation appeared to be hosted within quartz veins in the form of 2-3 cm crystals of malachite, azurite and bornite, Figure 9.

During the soil program additional shafts were found, recorded and rock chip samples taken. Two shafts were found ~600m along strike from the known historical mines at the Baloo prospect, where the size of the shafts was considerable, to 60m depth. Minerals observed within the mullock pile indicate they mined a copperrich pipe 2m x 2m in diameter, Figure 10.

Geological observations suggest the region has been subject to multi-generational intrusion events that have deposited and remobilised specific economic minerals at different points, namely copper, gold, silver and molybdenum.

Boots on ground field mapping at Baloo and Kaa

The area is generally dominated by granitoid rocks, and in particular granodiorite. Multiple occurrences of visible copper mineralisation were noted across the Baloo corridor, with the copper minerals seen in both the granodiorites and the intermediate dykes in the form of malachite, azurite, chalcocite and bornite.

The granodiorites at Kaa which host a Cu-Au-Mo anomaly are from the Triassic and are strongly magnetic. Intruding these granodiorites are a series of dykes of intermediate composition, with specimen samples containing fine disseminated malachite, and others containing chalcocite and malachite blebs, Figure 11.

At Kaa the gold and copper mineralisation, believed to be associated with the clustering of intermediate dykes, with these dykes containing disseminated malachite and chalcocite. Visible malachite and chalcocite were also seen a further 400m to the east of the clustered dykes and soil grid, Figure 12.

The granodiorites from the Permian are magnetically quiet and host the much larger Baloo Cu-Au-Mo anomaly which stretches 4km x 1.5km between the Mt Perry and Mt Rawdon Faults.

During the mapping program the existing soil anomaly was visited, however the area has little to no outcrop, and has weathered in-situ. One specimen sample was located and recorded as a feldspar-quartz porphyry with rare pyrite pseudomorphs, Figure 13.

Next Steps at Mt Rawdon West

Geophysical and geochemical data continues to be evaluated, in conjunction with the findings form the surface mapping, to include modeling and understanding of the intrusions, to assist with drill targeting.

Historical geophysical data is also being re-evaluated to add further information to the geological model.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Balfour Project (Copper)

The Balfour Project is located 125kms northeast of Newman in the Pilbara of Western Australia and covers 350km[2] of the prospective Proterozoic Rift. The project covers 25kms of strike of the sub-basin and surrounds the Nicholas Downs Manganese Deposit owned by Hancock Prospecting Figure 14.

The project is prospective for base metal intrusion related mineral deposits, such as sedimentary hosted copper deposits. Two prospects have already been determined, Winterbrook and Whitewood.

In early 2023 Killi entered into an agreement with Black Canyon (ASX:BCA), where the tenement ownership transferred to BCA and the copper rights to the project remained with Killi Resources.

During the half year the Deferred Consideration milestone was achieved with the Company receiving $300,000 worth of Black Canyon shares (ASX:BCA). Total consideration received for the project totalled $500,000.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

West Tanami – Gold and Copper Project, Kimberley

The Company holds a large 1,634km[2] tenement holding in the Kimberley of Western Australia, at the Western end of the Tanami Geological Belt.

During 2023 the Company released the first pass drilling results at the project, from an aircore program and a stratigraphic diamond drillhole completed in conjunction with the Geological Survey of Western Australia.

The aircore drill program returned multiple new gold anomalies downhole at the Fox and Deva prospects. Intercepts included 4m @ 135ppb Au from 72m, and 4m @ 100ppb Au from 8m, which are similar to some of the first aircore and RAB results from the Callie gold deposit, which had low-level gold results due to the nature of these sediment-hosted gold systems, Figure 15.

==> picture [523 x 341] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 15. Location of gold and silver results at the West Tanami Project, from the regional aircore drill program, including the gold anomaly at Deva interpreted as the D5 fault structure that extends from the northern territory and is associated with million-ounce gold systems of the Tanami district.

In addition to the aircore program the Company completed a 840m deep stratigraphic drillhole in partnership with the Geological Survey of Western Australia. The geological units intersected, determined the Fox prospect is within the same geological sequence to Callie, the Dead Bullock Formation.

This is an important development as it was an area previously thought to be an alternative zone of the sequence which was not as prospective for gold mineralisation.

The diamond hole also intersected a dolerite unit within the Dead Bullock Formation, with visible copper mineralisation which returned in assay 0.6m @ 0.27% Cu, 1.23g/t Ag, and 114.5ppm Co, Figure 16 & 17. An area never considered a base metal or nickel/copper belt, this intercept could open the region up to new commodities not previously explored for.

These results triggered a review of surface soils, which also highlighted a surface geochemical copper anomaly which aligns with the interpreted fold hinge of the sediments. KILLI RESOURCES LIMITED: INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT − 31 DECEMBER 2023 15

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Ravenswood North - Gold & Copper Project, Queensland

The Company is exploring for a new gold and copper system in the Charters Towers district in Queensland. Specifically, an intrusion-related gold system similar to the Ravenswood or Mt Wright deposits, 60kms along strike.

A surface soil geochemistry Au-Ag-Cu anomaly stretching 1.5km[2] , was determined from field work completed in 2022 and 2023 at the Rocky prospect.

The first 11 holes completed within the soil anomaly were completed on a 300m x 300m grid and returned 10m @ 0.66g/t Au and 6m @ 0.83g/t Au. In addition to these gold results, wide zones of silver mineralisation were returned in assay, 75m @ 0.25g/t Ag and 35m @ 0.32g/t Ag . These results are extremely encouraging as they indicate the intrusive system is fertile for gold and silver.

The Company is re-processing geophysical data and designing the next drill program to infill the existing holes.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial report is a general-purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the Corporation Act 2001.

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. The financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB). Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.

New and amended standards adopted by the entity

The Group has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are mandatory for the current reporting period. Any new, revised or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

Going Concern

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis with the Directors of the opinion that the Group can meet its obligations as and when they fall due.

For the period ended 31 December 2023, the Group recorded a loss of $510,916 (31 December 2022: $2,721,606), had a net current asset position of $1,407,426 (30 June 2023: $1,863,845) and had a net cash outflow from operations of $712,654 (31 December 2022: $2,824,061). At 31 December 2023, the Group had $1,065,052 (30 June 2023: $1,777,706) in cash and cash equivalents. For the Group to continue to carry out its exploration activities, meet its expenditure requirements and continue as a going concern it is dependent on securing additional funding. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due and realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Directors have prepared a cashflow forecast for the next 12-month period reflecting the need for further funding as mentioned above. While the Directors are confident that they will be able to raise the funding, the timing, extent and cost of additional funding is always uncertain. In the event that funding of an amount required to meet the future budgeted operational and investing activities of the Company is unavailable, the Directors would undertake steps to scale down its operations and reduce its discretionary expenditure in order to curtail cash outflows.

(b) Accounting policies

These general-purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2023 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’. These general-purpose financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2023 and any public announcements made by the company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, unless otherwise stated.

2. Segment Information

Operating Segments

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.

The Group is managed primarily on the basis of its exploration and 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.

The Group operates within one segment which is mineral exploration within Australia. The Group is domiciled in Australia.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the Members of Killi Resources Limited

Report on the Interim Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the interim financial report of Killi Resources Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2023, 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 half-year ended on that date, selected explanatory notes, and the directors’ declaration, for the Group comprising the Company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the accompanying interim financial report of Killi Resources Limited does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2023 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the review of the financial report section of our report. We are independent of the company 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 (including Independence Standards ) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 1(a) in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Responsibility of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the interim 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 interim financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the interim financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2023 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

A review of an interim financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
