REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

WINCHESTER MAGNESIUM CARBONATE PROJECT (RUM JUNGLE MINERAL FIELD, NT)

As reported to the market on 12 September 2018 and in subsequent report on 5 April 2019, Korab Group plans to develop the Winchester project (located near Darwin in the Northern Territory) as a quarry operation. The Company aims to produce raw magnesium carbonate rock which will then be crushed, screened, and sorted on-site prior to transfer to Darwin Port at East Arm, which is located approximately 90km by road from the project.

The Company intends for a part of the output from the quarry to be sold as an un-processed magnesium carbonate (DSO) and a part of the output to be sent for off-site processing into magnesium oxide in the form of high-grade and low-grade caustic calcined magnesia (CCM), and dead burned magnesia (DBM).

It is planned that this off-site processing would be undertaken by means of toll-treatment in kilns owned by third-parties. Thus the off-site production of CCM and DBM would not require additional capital investment.

Whilst Korab Group’s work (that was not related to exploration or evaluation) has been focusing on the permitting for the development of the Winchester magnesium carbonate quarry to supply ore for DSO sales (as well as for potential off-site processing into DBM and CCM) the Company has continued to monitor the progress of new developments in the sectors of magnesium metal production, direct nuclear-to-electric energy conversion, rechargeable magnesium-ion batteries and magnesium-based single-use batteries.

These new technologies monitored by Korab Group rely on magnesium oxides (or other magnesium compounds) to achieve their objectives and consequently it is our belief that these developments may have a significant positive impact on the future demand for magnesium carbonate.

We note that some of these technologies are at a “pilot plant” stage; however, some of them have already entered commercial production, primarily for use in the defence, aerospace, and energy generation/storage sectors.

During the reporting period Korab Group advised the market that it has received an unsolicited approach from an Australian proprietary company which expressed an interest Winchester project. It was noted that the other party advised Korab Group that their interest in the project stems from the high quality of the deposit and its potential to serve as a source of the raw material (magnesium carbonate) for the production of magnesium metal. It was further noted that the parties were discussing various potential transactions, including a potential sale of a part, or the whole of the Winchester project.

Korab Group further advised that the discussions with the other party were ongoing but are incomplete and confidential. No commercial terms have been agreed between the parties. There can be no certainty that any agreement or agreements can be reached with the other party or that any transaction will eventuate. Accordingly, no investment decision should be made on the basis of this information.

During reporting period, on 15 July 2020, Korab reported that following the amendments to environmental assessment legislation and our discussions with the NT Department of Primary Industry and Resources and the NT Environmental Protection Agency it has been determined that the Notice of Intent to mine (NOI) for the Winchester quarry is no longer required. Korab further advised that as a consequence, Korab Group will be proceeding directly to prepare and submit to the NT Department of Industry, Tourism, and Trade (formerly Department of Primary Industry and Resources) the Mine Management Plan for Winchester quarry (MMP).

The work completed to date on the NOI is being used in the preparation of the MMP and will be useful in the development and the management of the Winchester quarry. Korab Group continues to work on the MMP with the aim of completing it as soon as possible. The process of MMP preparations is complex and in addition to the design of the start-up quarry, requires addressing issues relating to potential future expansion of the project and its related logistics and infrastructure.

In essence, the mine, site infrastructure, and plant layout would be very simple and rudimentary if Winchester project was to be operated as a DSO quarry which does not require any on-site mineral processing (other than crushing, screening, and sorting).

The mine, mining schedule, site infrastructure, and plant layout would be quite different and much more complex if Winchester project was expanded to include a kiln and a smelter and if it was to be operated as a magnesium metal producer (as the other party mentioned above is interested in doing).

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

The MMP, which the Company is working on, should allow for this potential expansion to be accomplished with a minimum disruption to the ongoing DSO quarry operation and without the necessity to relocate the mine infrastructure including the pit access ramps, ROM pads, stockpiles, waste dumps, internal roads, plant site, etc.

MMP development also includes “quarantining” of certain zones of the project area to ensure that the infrastructure does not end up “sitting” on top of the potential valuable mineral resource.

The work on the MMP has continued through the reporting period and has progressed well. However, at the time of this report there are still some aspects of the quarry operation that need to be revised and consequently, Korab Group is not in a position at this point in time to provide temporal guidance regarding the anticipated timing of the completion and the lodgment of the MMP. Korab Group will advise the market once the MMP for the Winchester quarry has been completed and lodged.

Following the end of the reporting period, Korab group has been approached by yet another unrelated party with an unsolicited proposal to enter into an agreement to jointly develop the Winchester quarry where the other party will fully fund the development in exchange for sharing the future profits from the quarry. No commercial terms have been agreed between the parties. There can be no certainty that any agreement or agreements can be reached with the other party or that any transaction will eventuate. Accordingly, no investment decision should be made on the basis of this information.

During and following the end of the reporting period, Korab Group continued discussions and negotiations with various parties including trading houses, refractory ceramics producers, other potential buyers of magnesium carbonate rock, CCM, and DBM, as well as kiln operators, and equipment suppliers. Discussions with interested parties are ongoing but are incomplete and details are confidential. There can be no certainty that any agreement or agreements can be reached or that any transaction will eventuate from these discussions.

Other than the agreement with ZM Ropczyce reported during the March 2019 quarter, no commercial terms have been agreed between the parties. Accordingly, no investment decision should be made on the basis of this information. Korab will advise the market if and when an agreement or agreements regarding offtakes and/or toll-treatment have been reached.

The proposed Winchester magnesium carbonate quarry is located 2 km from the regional centre of Batchelor some 70km south of Darwin along Stuart Highway. Deposit is at shallow depth and is covered by a thin layer (few meters) of unconsolidated clay and gravel. Winchester magnesium carbonate rock can be quarried using a simple drill and blast, shovel, and truck method.

Magnesium carbonate rock (after it has been converted to magnesium oxide) is primarily used in the making of refractory linings necessary for the production of steel, cement, and glass. Other main uses of magnesium oxides and other magnesium compounds are in water purification, nickel and cobalt metallurgy, cattle feed, production of high-strength light-weight metal alloys, direct energy conversion technologies, and rechargeable and single-use batteries.

BATCHELOR/GREEN ALLIGATOR POLYMETALLIC PROJECT (RUM JUNGLE MINERAL FIELD, NT)

Korab continued exploration and evaluation of Batchelor/Green Alligator project with particular focus on gold, cobalt, nickel, lead, scandium, and base metals. No reportable exploration results (as the term is defined in the section 18 of the 2012 JORC code) were generated. Korab has also continued discussions with third parties regarding potential JV’s to explore the project for various commodities. During the reporting period, exploration licence EL29550 forming part of the Batchelor Project located in the Northern Territory has been renewed for further 2 years to 31 July 2022 and is eligible for further renewals.

SUNDANCE GOLD MINE (RUM JUNGLE MINERAL FIELD, NT)

The Company has continued work on re-opening the Sundance gold mine located south of Darwin in the Northern Territory and on treating the rock (which has been stockpiled on the mining leases) at the processing plant owned by a third party. Discussions with third parties are ongoing but are incomplete and details are confidential. There can be no certainty that any agreement or agreements can be reached or that any agreement will eventuate from these discussions. Accordingly, no investment decision should be made on the basis of this information. The Sundance gold mine is located on granted mining leases MLN542 and MLN543 (100% owned by Korab).

GEOLSEC ROCK PHOSPHATE PROJECT (RUM JUNGLE MINERAL FIELD, NT)

During the quarter Korab Group focused on other mineral assets and consequently exploration work at the Geolsec project was limited. An unrelated company (the Miner), is sub-leasing the Geolsec phosphate project from Korab Group (as reported to the market on 25 July 2018, and 9 November 2020).

As reported previously, Korab Group received from the Miner an expression of interest to purchase the whole of the Geolsec project from Korab Group. The discussions regarding the potential sale of the Geolsec project are incomplete and confidential and there can be no certainty that any agreement or agreements can be reached or that any sale transaction will eventuate. No commercial terms have been agreed between the parties for the sale of the Geolsec project. Accordingly, no investment decision should be made on the basis of this information.

BOBRIKOVO GOLD AND SILVER PROJECT (LUHANSK REGION, UKRAINE)

During the prior reporting period, on 24 September 2019, Korab Group reported that that it has received notification from its Ukrainian subsidiary “DKL” that on the basis of the Executive Order/Decree of the President of Ukraine, all exploration licences, mining permits, and leases held by “DKL” whose term would have otherwise expired, have been prolonged until the end of the hostilities in the Luhansk region. During the reporting period Korab Group continued engagement with stakeholders, contractors, advisers, and potential partners/investors with the view to a JV, sub-leasing, sale, or re-commencing operations at this project notwithstanding the uncertain situation in eastern Ukraine where the project is located. The discussions regarding the Bobrikovo project are incomplete and confidential and there can be no certainty that any agreement or agreements can be reached or that any transaction will eventuate. No commercial terms have been agreed between the parties. Accordingly, no investment decision should be made on the basis of this information.

MT. ELEPHANT/ASHBURTON DOWNS PROJECT (ASHBURTON MINERAL FIELD, WA)

During the reporting period, Korab Group continued the exploration and evaluation of the Mt. Elephant project exploration licences E08/2307, E52/2724, E08/2756, and E08/2757, focusing primarily on their gold, iron ore, and base metals potential. No reportable exploration results (as the term is defined in the section 18 of the 2012 JORC code) were generated. As at 30 June 2021, Mt. Elephant consisted of 4 granted exploration licences E08/2757, E52/2724, E08/2307, E08/2756, and 3 exploration licence applications E52/3872, E08/3264 and E08/3302 (“Tenements”). Korab decided not to apply for the extension/renewal of the exploration licence E08/2115 which was due to expire on 3 November 2020 and consequently the licence has expired.

Great Fingall Mining Company NL (GFMC), held the option to acquire the project (as reported to the market on 25 July 2018), The option held by GFMC expired on 21 June 2020 as envisaged in the ASX report dated 25 October 2019. The transaction covered the Mt. Elephant Project located in the Ashburton Mineral Field south of Paraburdoo in Western Australia. Korab Group and GFMC are negotiating a new option agreement. No terms have been agreed between the parties and there can be no certainty that any agreement or agreements can be reached or that any transaction will eventuate from these discussions.

Whilst GFMC is responsible for the exploration, rent, shire rates and other costs associated with Mt. Elephant Project incurred up to and including the expiry date of the option, Korab Group was providing exploration management and tenement management support to GFMC. GFMC is to reimburse Korab for services provided by Korab Group while the option was in effect.

REMUNERATION REPORT

The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by section 308 (3C) of the Corporations Act 2001.

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of compensation

The Board determines remuneration policies and practices, evaluates the performance of senior management, and considers remuneration for those senior managers.

The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration on an annual basis by reference to industry and market conditions, and with regard to the Company’s financial and operating performance.

Total non-executive directors’ fees are approved by shareholders and the Board is responsible for the allocation of those fees amongst the individual members of the Board. The value of remuneration is determined on the basis of cost to the Company and consolidated entity. Remuneration of key management personnel is referred to as compensation, as defined in Accounting Standard AASB 124.

Compensation levels for key management personnel of the Company and consolidated entity are competitively set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced directors and senior executives. The Board obtains, when required, independent advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages, given trends in comparative companies both locally and internationally. Compensation arrangements can include a mix of fixed and performance based compensation however the Company has not paid bonuses to directors or executives to date. Share-based compensation can be awarded at the discretion of the Board, subject to shareholder approval when required.

It is the intention of the Board to tailor the remuneration policy to maximise the commonality of goals between shareholders and key management personnel. The method which is most likely to achieve this aim is the issue of options to key management personnel to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The directors believe this policy will be the most effective in increasing shareholder wealth.

Compensation structures take into account the overall level of compensation for each director and executive, the capability and experience of the directors and senior executives, the executive’s ability to control the financial performance of the relative business or geographical segment, the consolidated entity’s performance (including earnings and the growth in share price), and the amount of any incentives within each executive’s remuneration. Given the consolidated entity’s focus on exploration projects during the year, the Board did not have regard to the consolidated entity’s financial performance and / or change in shareholder wealth occurring in the current financial year and previous three financial years in setting remuneration. No dividends were paid or declared during this period (2020: Nil).

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for the consolidated entity consisting of Korab Resources Limited and its subsidiaries.

(a) Basis of preparation

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (“AASBs”) (including Australian Accounting Interpretations), as adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”), other authoritative pronouncements of the AASB and the Corporations Act 2001. Australian Accounting Standards include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report of Korab Resources Limited complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Comparative information is reclassified where appropriate to enhance comparability.

The functional and presentation currency of the Company is Australian dollars. The financial report was authorised for issue by the directors on 29 October 2021. Korab Resources Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.

Basis of measurement

The financial report is prepared on a historical cost basis as modified by the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.

Going concern

The financial report has been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes the commercial realisation of the future potential of the Group’s assets and the discharge of its liabilities in the normal course of business. At balance date, the Group had an excess of current liabilities over current assets of $264,788 (2020: $353,934) and had a net cash inflow from operations for the year ended 30 June 2021 of $208,305 (2020: outflow of $85,382). The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.

The Company believes it will need to seek additional funding in the coming year in order to meet its operating expenditure and planned exploration expenditure for the next twelve months from the date of signing these financial statements. The directors are confident of being able to obtain additional funding through increase in debt, raising of additional share capital, or sale of assets. Should this not occur, or not occur on a sufficiently timely basis, there is 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 discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the financial report requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year and judgments, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements, are as follows:

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

(i) Exploration and evaluation assets

Exploration and evaluation expenditure is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are carried forward in respect of an area that has not at 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 relating to, the area of interest are continuing.

(ii) Recoverability of loan to Polymetallica Minerals Limited

Korab has been advised by Polymetallica that it is in the process of arranging of a debt and equity funding from third parties to raise funds to repay the loans made by Korab.

(b) Principles of consolidation

Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial report comprises the financial statements of the Company and its controlled entities. A controlled entity is any entity controlled by the Company whereby the parent entity has the power to control the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. All intercompany balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated entity, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Where a subsidiary enters or leaves the consolidated entity during the year, its operating results are included or excluded from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those applied by the parent entity.

(c) Recoverable amount of assets and impairment testing

Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to depreciation and are tested annually for impairment by estimating their recoverable amount.

Assets that are subject to depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where such an indicator exists, a formal assessment of recoverable amount is then made. Where this is less than carrying amount, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount.

Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset or cash generating unit. In estimating value in use, a pre-tax discount rate is used which reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Any resulting impairment loss is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income.

(d) Receivables

Trade and other receivables are stated at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less expected credit losses.

(e) Business combinations

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, including business combinations involving entities or business under common control, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired.

The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the consolidated entity. The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangement and the fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary.

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the consolidated entity recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets.

The excess of the consideration transferred the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the consolidated entity’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase.

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

Contingent consideration is classified as either equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

(f) Exploration and evaluation expenditure

Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that the consolidated entity’s rights of tenure to the area are current and that the costs are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or by its sale, or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.

Each area of interest is assessed for impairment to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. Impairment testing is carried out in accordance with Note 1(c).

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit or loss in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made. Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified to mine development properties.

(g) Taxes

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the result for the year adjusted for any nonassessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantively enacted by balance date. Deferred tax is accounted for using the statements of financial position liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income except where it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity. Deferred income tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and tax losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the consolidated entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and only recognised to the extent that sufficient future assessable income is expected to be obtained.

Tax consolidation

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident controlled entities have formed a tax-consolidated entity and are therefore taxed as a single entity. Korab Resources Limited is the head entity of the taxconsolidated entity. In future periods the members of the consolidated entity will, if required, enter into a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in the consolidated entity contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax of the tax consolidated entity.

(h) 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 purchases of these goods and services. Trade and other payables are represented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months.

(i) Earnings per share

The consolidated entity presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the result attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted number of shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all potential ordinary shares, which comprise share options granted.

(j) Share based payments

The fair value of shares and share options granted as compensation is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity. Fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the grantees become unconditionally entitled to the shares or share options. The fair value of share grants at grant date is determined by the share price at that time. The fair value of share options at grant date is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, any vesting and performance criteria, the share price at grant date, the expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free rate for the term of the option. Upon the exercise of the option, the balance of the share-based payments reserve relating to the option is transferred to contributed equity.

(k) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other shortterm, and 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.

(l) Employee benefits

Provision is made for the consolidated entity’s liability for employee benefits and termination indemnities arising from services rendered by employees to balance date.

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

(i)Short-term benefits

Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs.

(ii) Long-term employee benefit obligations

The liability for long service leave and annual leave which is not expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service 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 end of the reporting period.

(m) Contributed equity

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to an equity transaction are shown as a deduction from equity, net of any recognised income tax benefit.

(n) Goods and services tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (“GST”), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

(o) Comparative figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial period.

(p) Foreign currency

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the consolidated entity’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates (the “functional” currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate at balance date. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the profit and loss, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Foreign operations

The financial performance and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the consolidated entity’s presentation currency are translated as follows:

assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at statement of financial position date.
income and expenses are translated at transaction date or average exchange rates for the period, whichever is more appropriate.

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the consolidated entity’s foreign currency translation reserve as a separate component of equity. These differences are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income upon disposal of the foreign operation.

(q) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised and measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized:

Sublease Revenue

Sublease of mining rights is recognised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease where it is probable economic benefits will flow to the entity.

Interest

Revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest rate method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

(r) Borrowing costs

Interest expenses comprise interest expense on borrowings and the unwinding of the discount on provisions.

(s) Parent entity financial information

The financial information for the parent entity, Korab Resources Limited, disclosed in Note 20 has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out below.

(i) Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities are accounted for at cost in the financial statements of Korab Resources Limited. Dividends received from associates are recognised in the parent entity’s profit or loss, rather than being deducted from the carrying amount of these investments.

(t) Financial instruments

Recognition and derecognition

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.

Classification and initial measurement of financial assets

Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with AASB 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable). For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets, other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments, are classified into the following categories:

amortised cost
fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, finance income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables which is presented within other expenses.

The classification is determined by both:

the entity’s business model for managing the financial asset, and
the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

Subsequent measurement of financial assets

(i) Financial assets at amortised cost

Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not designated as FVTPL): • they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets to collect its contractual cash flows

• the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.

(ii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Financial assets that are held within a different business model other than ‘hold to collect’ or ‘hold to collect and sell’ are categorised at fair value through profit and loss. Further, irrespective of business model financial assets whose contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest are accounted for at FVTPL. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments, for which the hedge accounting requirements apply. The category also contains an equity investment. The Group accounts for the investment at FVTPL and did not make the irrevocable election to account for the investment in unlisted and listed equity securities at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). The fair value was determined in line with the requirements of AASB 9, which does not allow for measurement at cost. Assets in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss. The fair values of financial assets in this category are determined by reference to active market transactions or using a valuation technique where no active market exists.

(iii) Equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Equity FVOCI)

Investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading are eligible for an irrevocable election at inception to be measured at FVOCI. Under Equity FVOCI, subsequent movements in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss. Dividend from these investments continue to be recorded as other income within the profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents return of capital. This category includes unlisted equity securities that were previously classified as ‘available-for-sale’ under AASB 139. Any gains or losses recognised in other comprehensive income (OCI) are not recycled upon derecognition of the asset.

(iv) Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Debt FVOCI)

Financial assets with contractual cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest and held within a business model of collecting the contractual cash flows and selling the assets are accounted for at debt FVOCI. The Group accounts for financial assets at FVOCI if the assets meet the following conditions:

they are held under a business model whose objective it is to “hold to collect” the associated cash flows and sell financial assets; and

• the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Any gains or losses recognised in other comprehensive income (OCI) will be recycled upon derecognition of the asset.

Impairment of financial assets

AASB 9’s impairment requirements use more forward-looking information to recognise expected credit losses – the ‘expected credit loss (ECL) model’. Instruments within the scope of the requirements include loans and other debt-type financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVOCI, trade receivables, contract assets recognised and measured under AASB 15 and loan commitments and some financial guarantee contracts (for the issuer) that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss. Recognition of credit losses is no longer dependent on the Group first identifying a credit loss event. Instead the Group considers a broader range of information when assessing credit risk and measuring expected credit losses, including past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability of the future cash flows of the instrument.

In applying this forward-looking approach, a distinction is made between:

• financial instruments that have not deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition or that have low credit risk (‘Stage 1’) and

• financial instruments that have deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition and whose credit risk is not low (‘Stage 2’).

• ‘Stage 3’ would cover financial assets that have objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date.

‘12-month expected credit losses’ are recognised for the first category while ‘lifetime expected credit losses’ are recognised for the second category. Measurement of the expected credit losses is determined by a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses over the expected life of the financial instrument.

Trade and other receivables and contract assets

The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade and other receivables as well as contract assets and records the loss allowance as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. In calculating, the Group uses its historical experience, external indicators and forwardlooking information to calculate the expected credit losses using a provision matrix. The Group assess impairment of trade receivables on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics they have been grouped based on the days past due.

Classification and measurement of financial liabilities

The Group’s financial liabilities include borrowings, trade and other payables and derivative financial instruments. Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments).

(u) Leases

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.

KORAB RESOURCES LIMITED & CONTROLLED ENTITIES

FINANCIAL REPORT 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

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 consolidated 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 remeasurement of lease liabilities.

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 consolidated entity's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.

(v) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

Site restoration

Provisions for the cost of site restoration are recognised at the time that an environmental disturbance occurs or a constructive obligation is determined. Costs included in the provision encompass all closure and rehabilitation activity expected to occur progressively over the life of the operation and at the time of closure in connection with disturbances as at the reporting date. Estimated costs included in the determination of the provision reflect the risks and probabilities of alternative estimates of cash flows required to settle the obligation. The expected rehabilitation costs are estimated based on the cost of external contractors performing the work or the cost of performing the work internally depending on management’s intention.

The timing of the actual rehabilitation expenditure is dependent upon a number of factors including the currently approved life of the mine and changes in local environmental regulations. Expenditures may occur before and after closure and can continue for an extended period of time depending on rehabilitation requirements. The expected future cash flows exclude the effect of inflation. The unwinding of the discount is included in finance costs and results in an increase in the amount of the provision.

The provision is updated each year for the effect of a change in the discount rate and exchange rate, when applicable, and the change in estimate is added or deducted from the related asset and depreciated prospectively over the asset’s useful life.

Significant judgments and estimates are involved in forming expectations of future activities and the amount and timing of the associated cash flows. Those expectations are formed based on existing environmental and regulatory requirements or, if more stringent, our environmental policies which give rise to a constructive obligation. When expected cash flows change, the revised cash flows are discounted using the current US dollar real risk-free pre-tax discount rate and an adjustment is made to the provision.

When a provision for site restoration is initially recognized, the corresponding cost is capitalized as an asset, representing part of the cost of acquiring the future economic benefits of the operation. The capitalized cost of

closure and rehabilitation activities is recognized in property, plant and equipment and depreciated over the expected economic life of the operation to which it relates.

(w) Contingencies

Contingent liabilities are defined as:

possible obligations resulting from past events whose existence depends on future events;
obligations that are not recognised because it is not probable that they will lead to an outflow of resources;
obligations that cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the statement of financial position, but are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, with the exception of contingent liabilities where the probability of the liability occurring is remote.

(x) New accounting standards and interpretations

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted

The Directors have reviewed new accounting standards and interpretations that have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2021 reporting periods. As a result of this review, the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Company and, therefore, no material change is likely to company accounting policies.

Standards and Interpretations applicable to 30 June 2021

In the 12 month period ended 30 June 2021, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current annual reporting period.

Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework)

The Company has adopted the revised Conceptual Framework from 1 July 2020. The Conceptual Framework contains new definition and recognition criteria as well as new guidance on measurement that affects several Accounting Standards, but it has not had a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

3. SEGMENT REPORTING

AASB 8 Operating Segments requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the consolidated entity that are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and assess its performance. The Executive Chairman of Korab reviews internal reports prepared such as consolidated financial statements, and strategic decisions of the consolidated entity are determined upon analysis of these internal reports. During the year the consolidated entity operated predominantly in one business segment, being the minerals exploration sector. Accordingly, under the “management approach” outlined only one operating segment has been identified and no further disclosure is required in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. All non-current assets, revenue and finance income for the current and prior period have a geographical location in Australia.

The loan has an interest rate of 8.5% and is not payable prior to 30 September 2022. The balance of outstanding amounts from Polymetallica Minerals Limited consist of funds provided by the Company to pay for tenement rents and other project related costs in relation to projects where the Company and Polymetallica have, or had joint venture arrangements, and/or production sharing agreements, plus any accrued interest. These joint venture arrangements and/or production sharing agreements were established when Polymetallica was a subsidiary of the Company prior to Polymetallica being demerged (spun-off) from the Company. The Company has registered security over all assets of Polymetallica.

A subsidiary, Australian Copper Holdings Pty Ltd, has recognised an impairment charge of $395,459 during the period as a consequence of the relinquishment of a tenement.

The Directors are of the opinion that whilst the tenure of the Bobrikovo project and related operations are not affected by the current political developments in Ukraine, the uncertainty as to the future direction of the developments there makes it prudent to be conservative. The exploration and evaluation expenditure attributable to the Bobrikovo project has been written-off at consolidation level in earlier reporting periods to reflect this conservative approach.

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.

15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

General objectives, policies and processes

The consolidated entity’s activities expose it to credit risk, market risk (including interest rate risk, price risk and currency risk), liquidity risk, and commodity price risk. This note presents qualitative and quantitative information about the consolidated entity’s exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and procedures for managing risk, and the management of capital. The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework.

The consolidated entity’s overall risk management approach focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise the potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity does not currently use derivative financial instruments to hedge financial risk exposures and therefore it is exposed to daily movements in commodity prices, interest rates and exchange rates. The consolidated entity uses various methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rates and ageing analysis for credit risk.

The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor, and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. Given the stage of the consolidated entity’s development there are no formal targets set for return on capital. There were no changes to the consolidated entity’s approach to capital management during the year. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity has no significant concentration of credit risk. Exposure to credit risk is considered minimal but is monitored on an ongoing basis.

Cash transactions are limited to financial institutions considered to have a suitable credit rating. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the statement of financial position at balance date. The carrying amount of the consolidated entity’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure.

The consolidated entity’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:

15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

(b) Market risk

(i) Interest rate risk

The significance and management of the risks to the consolidated entity is dependent on a number of factors including (i) interest rates (current and forward) and the currencies that are held; (ii) level of cash and liquid investments;(iii) maturity dates of investments; and (iv) proportion of investments that are fixed rate or floating rate.

The risk is managed by the consolidated entity maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate investments. All cash assets are held in Australian dollars.

The consolidated entity’s exposure to interest rate risk is considered minimal. The effective interest rates of variable rate income-earning financial assets at the reporting date are as follows.

Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents	Variable rate instruments at call Weighted average effective interest rate 2021 ($) 2021	Variable rate instruments at call Weighted average effective interest rate 2020 ($) 2020 163,840 1.8%
	93,313 1.8%

At the reporting date the carrying amount of the consolidated entity’s interest bearing financial assets was:

	2021 ($)	2020 ($)
Variable rate instruments	93,313	163,840
Fixed rate instruments	1,145,986	1,089,097

At the reporting date the carrying amount of the consolidated entity’s interest bearing financial liabilities was:

	2021 ($)	2020 ($)
Fixed rate instruments	2,734,832	2,237,779

Sensitivity analysis

A 100 basis points increase or decrease in the weighted average year-end interest rate of variable rate instruments would have increased / (decreased) consolidated profit or loss and equity by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2020:

Profit and loss ($) 30 June 2021 increase 9,331 30 June 2021 decrease (9,331) 30 June 2020 increase 16,384 30 June 2020 decrease (16,384)

(ii) Price risk

The consolidated entity was not exposed to equity securities price risk at 30 June 2021 or 30 June 2020.

(iii) Currency risk

The Company has one US$ denominated loan with a value of A$139,463 (US$103,882) at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: A$134,115 / US$91,651). Other than this the consolidated entity had no material exposure from changes in foreign currency exchange rates during the 30 June 2021 or 30 June 2020 years.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the consolidated entity will not be able to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due. The consolidated entity’s approach to managing this risk is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due under a range of financial conditions. The following are the contractual maturities of consolidated non-derivative financial liabilities:

(d) Commodity price risk

The consolidated entity is not exposed to commodity price risk at 30 June 2021 or 30 June 2020.

(e) Fair values

The fair values of consolidated financial assets and financial liabilities, together with their carrying amounts shown in the statement of financial position, are as follows:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the members of Korab Resources Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Korab 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 1(a) 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 , we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

==> picture [434 x 82] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [165 x 50] intentionally omitted <==

Key Audit Matter

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Classification of loans and borrowings (Refer to Note 10)

The operations of the Group are typically funded through capital raisings and borrowings from related and external parties.

As at 30 June 2021, Korab Resources Limited had a total of $2,734,832 in relation to current and non-current borrowings representing 88% of total liabilities.

Given the size of the loans and borrowings balance and the importance for continued operations, the accounting for the Group’s borrowings is considered a key audit matter.

Our procedures included but were not limited to:
Obtaining confirmations from the material funders confirming borrowings, including amounts and interest rates;
Where debt was regarded as non-current, we ensured the party confirmed unconditional right to defer payment such that there were no repayments required within 12 months from the balance date;
Obtaining details of voluntary repayments of borrowings made by the entity between balance date and audit report date and classified the amount as current; and
Reviewing the contractual terms of loan agreements and minutes of Directors’ meetings to ensure loans and borrowings were complete and accruing appropriate interest.

Carrying amount of exploration and evaluation asset (Refer to Note 8)

In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources , the Group capitalises exploration expenditure.

Our audit focused on the Group’s assessment of the carrying amount of capitalised exploration and evaluation as this is one of the significant assets of the Group. There is a risk that the capitalised expenditure no longer meets the recognition criteria of the standard.

In addition, we considered it necessary to assess whether facts and circumstances existed to suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount.

Our procedures included but were not limited to:

Obtaining an understanding of the key processes associated with management’s review of the exploration and evaluation asset carrying values;
- Considering the Director’s assessment of potential indicators of impairment;
- Obtaining evidence that the Group has current rights to tenure of its area of interest;
- Discussion with management the nature of planned ongoing activities;
- Determining whether we consider any impairment indicators under AASB 6 are present; and
- Examining the disclosures made in the financial report.

Recoverability of Polymetallica Minerals Limited (Polymetallica) loan receivable

(Refer to Note 7)

As at 30 June 2021, Korab Resources Limited had a receivable of $1,145,986 in relation to the non-current loan to Polymetallica.

The principal asset of Polymetallica is expenditure on areas of interest in the exploration and evaluation phase.

We considered this to be a key audit matter due to its materiality and the significant audit effort directed towards this area.

Our	procedures included but were not
limited to:
-	Reviewing the security interests in
	place over Polymetallica’s projects as
	security over loan repayment;
-	Consider the independent valuation
	over the relevant areas of interest of
	Polymetallica;
-	Considering the skills and experience of
	the independent valuer;
-	Ensuring Polymetallica’s right to tenure
	are current; and
-	Obtaining a loan confirmation from
	Polymetallica.

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 financial 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 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.

==> picture [165 x 50] intentionally omitted <==

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.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (Continued)

STATEMENT CONCERNING AVAILABILITY OF INDEPENDENT PROFESSIONAL ADVICE

If a director considers it necessary to obtain independent professional advice to properly discharge the responsibility of his/her office as a director then, provided the director first obtains approval for incurring such expense from the Chairman, the Company will pay the reasonable expenses associated with obtaining such advice.

SKILLS, EXPERIENCE, EXPERTISE AND TERM OF OFFICE OF EACH DIRECTOR

A profile of each director containing the applicable information is set out in the directors' report.

REMUNERATION COMMITTEE AND NOMINATION COMMITTEE

At this time Korab has no remuneration or nomination committee. The board intends to form a remuneration committee during the current financial year.

NOMINATION ARRANGEMENTS

Where a vacancy is considered to exist, the board will select an appropriate candidate through consultation with external parties and consideration of the needs of shareholders and the Company. Such appointments will be referred to shareholders for re-election at the next annual general meeting. All directors, except the Executive Chairman, are subject to re-election by shareholders at least every three years.

When a vacancy exists, through whatever cause, or where it is considered that the Board would benefit from the services of a new director with particular skills, the Board will determine the selection criteria for the position based on the skills deemed necessary for the Board to best carry out its responsibilities.

*On 24 September 2019 , the Company reported that it has received notification that on the basis of the Presidential Executive Order/Decree, all exploration licences, mining permits, and leases held by LLC “Donetsky Kryazh” whose term would have otherwise expired, have been prolonged until the end of the hostilities in the Luhansk region.

Expenditure requirements for applications pending approval are not included.
