CHAIRMAN'S REPORT

Dear Shareholder,

During the course of 2007 your Directors continued to progress the Company's projects and strengthen its balance sheet.

In May Legend announced the sale its Gidgee Gold Project to Apex Minerals NL ("Apex") for a consideration of \$11,000,000 payable by the issue of 34 million Apex shares. At the same time the Company announced that it would distribute the 34 million Apex shares to its shareholders. The sale of the Gidgee Gold Project was completed in August and the distribution in-specie of the 34 million Apex shares to Legend shareholders by way of a return of capital was completed in November.

During the lead up to the return of capital the majority of the listed and unlisted options were exercised thereby raising over \$9 million. This was the principal factor in the Company having over \$13 million in cash at the end of the year.

Legend also entered into a joint venture with Oxiana Limited in May whereby Oxiana can acquire a 75% interest in the Mt Gibson Project following expenditure of \$10 million. Legend retains ownership of the Mt Gibson plant and camp site.

Legend now faces a solid, well funded future, with over \$13 million in cash at year end, a well credentialed management team, and significant tenement holdings at each of its three major projects. In addition, there are production facilities and infrastructure under care and maintenance at Mt Gibson.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Legend Board and staff for their hard work during 2007 and look forward to their continued support in 2008.

Chairman 31st March 2008

Legend Mining Limited (Legend) owns three major projects, all located within Western Australia.

  • • Gum Creek Project
  • • Pilbara Project
  • • Mt Gibson Project

GUM CREEK PROJECT – (Nickel-Copper-Platinum Group Elements)

The Gum Creek Project is located 640km northeast of Perth, Western Australia (Figure 1) and comprises a land holding of 688km2 in the Gum Creek Greenstone Belt.

This Project represents the retained portion of the Gidgee Project, following the sale of the Gidgee Gold Project to Apex Minerals NL in August 2007. This area was retained following a regional commodity review, which highlighted the nickel-copper-platinum group elements (Ni-Cu-PGE) potential of the Gum Creek Greenstone Belt. The Project has had no systematic nickel exploration since the early 1970's.

The Project is divided into three areas, Bungarra, Thangoo and Woodley, and considered prospective for both intrusion-related (Ni-Cu-PGE) and komatiite flow-related (Ni) sulphide mineralisation, see Figure 2. Exploration activities completed during 2007 included; geochemical sampling, aircore, reverse circulation (RC) and diamond drilling, a high resolution aeromagnetic/radiometric survey and ground electromagnetic surveys.

Drilling statistics for the Project are summarised in Table 1 below:-

Table 1: Drilling Statistics - 2007

Bungarra

Legend discovered an outcropping magmatic sulphide gossan at Bungarra in April 2007, returning rock grab sample results up to 1.0% Ni, 5.7% Cu and 0.7g/t PGE. The gossan was hosted by gabbroic rocks at/near the basal margin of the layered mafic-ultramafic Bungarra Intrusive Complex (BIC). This position is considered a prospective geological setting for segregations of Ni-Cu-PGE sulphide mineralisation.

Follow-up ground electromagnetic surveying, utilising the Moving Loop Time-Domain Electromagnetic (MLTEM) technique, was completed over three prospects, namely Python, Dugite and Adder. The surveys identified a number of conductors coincident with the original outcropping gossan and subsequent field reconnaissance identified additional gossanous float, see Figure 3. Best rock grab sample results are provided below in Table 2.

Figure 3: Bungarra – Drillhole Location, Prospects, EM Conductors and Gossan Samples

A high-resolution aeromagnetic/radiometric survey was also completed over the entire BIC to assist with target definition and the structural/ geological interpretation of the complex.

Based on the above, diamond drillhole LGCD001 was drilled to a depth of 200.8m at the Python Prospect designed to target beneath the Ni-Cu-PGE gossan and to intersect a strong coincident electromagnetic conductor. The drillhole intersected two zones with elevated Ni-Cu-PGE values associated with gabbro adjacent to the contact with felsic volcanic.

Seven RC drillholes (LPYC001-007) for a total of 904m were completed at the Python Prospect during December 2007. The drilling was located along strike of diamond drillhole LGCD001, targeting beneath gossanous float with coincident ground EM conductors, interpreted to be associated with the basal margin of the BIC.

Legend signed the West Bungarra JV with Gateway Mining Limited (GML) on 16 July 2007, securing tenure over the entire BIC, see Figure 2. The JV, Legend 70%/GML 30%, covers the pending exploration licence E57/709 (P57/976 was originally included but subsequently expired) with Legend to sole fund and manage to Decision to Mine.

An airborne Versatile Time Domain Electro-Magnetic survey (VTEM) over the entire BIC and RC drill testing of electromagnetic conductors at the Dugite and Adder Prospects on the eastern margin of the BIC is planned for the first Quarter of 2008.

Thangoo

A total of 89 aircore holes for 5,694m were completed at Thangoo targeting ultramafic units identified previously by ground reconnaissance and/or interpreted from aeromagnetic data. Seven traverses with holes spaced at 50m were drilled across six strike kilometres of the interpreted ultramafic units to confirm their komatiitic nature and assess the nickel potential of these units.

Ultramafic rocks with classic spinifex and olivine cumulate textures (and interbedded black shales) were intersected on a number of traverses. This together with high MgO values (>18%) confirm the ultramafics as komatiites. Minor disseminated sulphide hosted by komatiite was also observed in several holes at Thangoo.

The drilling intersected broad zones of elevated nickel closely associated with high chromium values, summarised in Table 5. These results provide encouragement for the possible presence of nickel mineralisation at depth or along strike.

Eight RC drillholes (LTHC001-008) for a total of 1,209m were completed at Thangoo during December 2007. The drilling was targeting anomalous Ni-Cu geochemistry and favourable geological units (komatiite-black shale contacts) identified in the recent aircore drilling programme. Results from this drilling were of a similar tenor as the aircore drilling.

Table 7: Thangoo RC Drill Results

Nickel (Ni), Chromium (Cr), Copper (Cu) & Cobalt (Co) assayed by XRF at Ultra Trace Pty Ltd, Perth Samples collected by spear and composited over 4m intervals.

Two ground Moving Loop Time-Domain Electromagnetic surveys (MLTEM) were completed at Thangoo to further evaluate the ultramafic (komatiite) units with anomalous nickel drill results and associated elevated aeromagnetic response. The survey identified three strong conductors on the eastern flank of the survey area, however did not identify conductors over the targeted ultramafic units, see Figure 4.

These conductors have not been covered by geochemical sampling and only limited shallow aircore drilling. The limited drilling indicates the conductors are related to black shale, which is in direct contact with ultramafic units of komatiitic affinity and represent priority drill targets.

An airborne Versatile Time Domain Electro-Magnetic survey (VTEM) over the eastern half of Thangoo and an aircore drill programme to follow-up the EM conductors is planned for late in the first Quarter of 2008.

Woodley

A total of 48 aircore holes for 1,764m were completed at Woodley targeting ultramafic units identified previously by ground reconnaissance and/or interpreted from aeromagnetic data. The drilling was conducted along nine broad spaced traverses with holes spaced at 50m. No significant results were returned.

PILBARA PROJECT – (Nickel-Copper, Zinc-Copper, Copper-Gold)

Legend's Pilbara Project area lies between 7km and 50km south of Karratha in the northwest of Western Australia (Figure 1). The company holds exploration rights through granted tenements, tenement applications and joint venture agreements over 686km2 of land in the emerging West Pilbara base metal district. A breakdown of land equity interests is tabulated below:-

PILBARA PROJECT EQUITY INTEREST AREA (Km2
)
Legend (100%) 565
Mt Marie Joint Venture: Legend earning 70% from Fox Radio Hill Pty Ltd 103
Munni Munni Joint Venture: East Coast Minerals NL 69.88% - Legend 30.12% 18
TOTAL 686

Legend continued to advance exploration in the Pilbara during 2007 culminating in the identification of 11 priority drill targets, see Figure 5. Activities included; a second airborne Versatile Time Domain Electro-Magnetic survey (VTEM-2), ground electromagnetic surveys, geochemical sampling and ground reconnaissance.

The VTEM-2 survey, and the survey completed in November 2006 (VTEM-1), bringsthe total VTEM coverage over the Project area to 390km2. VTEM has proven to be an extremely valuable and cost effective technique in identifying new targets and known sulphide ore systems in the Pilbara. The second survey identified six priority targets and five second order anomalies, (the first survey identified five priority targets).

The priority VTEM survey targets were followed-up with Fixed Loop Time-Domain Electromagnetic (FLTEM) surveys resulting in the definition of 11 direct drill targets. The location of these targets is shown on Figure 5 and a brief description of each target is provided in Table 8 below.

Table 8: Description of Priority Targets from VTEM and FLTEM Surveys

TARGET BRIEF DESCPRIPTION
Chapman Located 1km southeast of the Carlow Castle copper-gold workings, this anomaly coincides with historic
copper-gold workings hosted in gabbro of the Andover Intrusive Complex. The FLTEM survey identified
two shallow, discrete bedrock conductors at a depth from surface of 40m and 60m respectively, with both
conductors dipping shallowly 25-35º to the north. These bedrock conductors may represent sulphide
bodies.
Milburn Located 2km east-southeast of the Carlow Castle copper-gold workings, this discrete anomaly is associated
with outcropping copper mineralisation in gabbro. The anomaly occurs near the contact between mafic
and ultramafic intrusives of the Andover Intrusive Complex and mafic volcanics. The top of the modelled
FLTEM conductor is at a depth of 35m from surface and dips 45º west. The discrete bedrock conductor is
consistent with a sulphide body.
Thorp Located 2km southeast of the Carlow Castle copper-gold workings, this anomaly coincides with historic
copper-gold workings hosted in gabbro of the Andover Intrusive Complex. Two bedrock conductors have
been delineated by the FLTEM survey, the first at a depth of 100m from surface and dipping 60º north
northwest, the second at a depth of 40m from surface with a dip of 40º to the north
Osborne Located 5km northeast of the Sholl B1 nickel-copper deposit, this discrete anomaly coincides with the
contact between mafic and ultramafic intrusives of the Andover Intrusive Complex. Osborne is modelled as
a 30-45º northwest dipping conductor at a depth from surface of 145m. The conductive source is consistent
with the presence of a sulphide body.

Table 8: Description of Priority Targets from VTEM and FLTEM Surveys (CONTD)

TARGET BRIEF DESCPRIPTION
Hickmott Located 4km northeast of the Ruth Well nickel-copper deposit, this anomaly coincides with a contact between
ultramafic and basaltic lithologies. This stratigraphic position hosts historic copper workings along strike,
although no workings are recorded in the immediate vicinity of the anomaly. Hickmott models as a discrete
bedrock conductor at a depth from surface of 50m and dipping 40-50º to the south and may represent a
sulphide body.
Varcoe Located 1km east of the Ruth Well nickel-copper deposit, this anomaly coincides with the contact between
the ultramafic host unit at Ruth Well and a brecciated basalt. The FLTEM survey revealed a number of
bedrock conductors, potentially representing a folded structure. The stronger modelled conductors are
consistent with the presence of sulphide bodies.
Castlebar Located 2km west of the Ruth Well nickel-copper deposit at the contact between a chert and overlying
ultramafic unit, the conductor is modelled to dip at 35-45º to the north and comes to within approximately
100m to 125m of surface. The conductor is consistent with the presence of a sulphide body.
Wexford & Banagher Located 4km northwest of Radio Hill, these two discrete anomalies lie within the lower contact zone of the
Dingo Complex. The four associated conductors are modelled as having varying dips and all are within
approximately 75m of surface. The modelled conductors are consistent with the presence of localised
disseminated or matrix sulphide.
Roundstone Located 6km south-southeast of Radio Hill, the anomaly is in an area of thin alluvial cover. This discrete
anomaly has a modelled conductor dipping 45-55º southeast and is at a depth of 40m from surface to the top
of the conductor. The conductor is consistent with the presence of a sulphide body.
Bushmill Located 5km south of Radio Hill, this discrete anomaly is located in an area of thin soil cover on the sheared
western margin of the Maitland Complex. The conductor is modelled to dip at 20-30º ENE and comes to
within approximately 75m of surface. The conductor is possibly consistent with the presence of localised
matrix or massive sulphide.

Legend is currently working to expedite the grant of its exploration and prospecting licences.

Drilling is scheduled to commence in the middle of 2008 once the grant of exploration title and heritage clearance has been achieved.

MT GIBSON – (Zinc-Copper, Gold)

The Mt Gibson project is located 290km northeast of Perth in Western Australia (Figure 1), and was acquired from Oroya Mining Limited in November 2005, principally to pursue the untested volcanic-hosted massive sulphide deposit potential (VHMS, predominant metals include zinc-copper-gold) beneath the oxide gold pits.

The project is situated 100km south of the world-class Golden Grove VHMS deposit owned by Oxiana Limited, and in common with Golden Grove, falls within the Yalgoo-Singleton Greenstone Belt in the southern Murchison Province.

Mt Gibson operated for 12 years as a gold mine from 1986 following the discovery of gold in surface laterite. The operation produced 870,000 ounces of gold from 16.5Mt of ore at an average grade of 1.68g/t.

Legend, through a study conducted in 2006 by Dr S Carras of Carras Mining Pty Ltd, estimated the residual gold Mineral Resource (Indicated and Inferred) to be 8.7Mt at 1.98g/t gold for 559,000 ounces. This Mineral Resource does not convert into Ore Reserve using current mining costs and gold price. The gold operation remains on care and maintenance.

Legend's 2006 diamond drillhole results support the premise that Mt Gibson represents a large, fertile VHMS mineral system with potential to host a base metal orebody. The predictive geological model developed from this drilling has led to the identification of important trends (vectors) to new opportunities within this large base metal system. All eight holes contain visible zinc sulphide, principally associated with sedimentary units layered within the volcanic sequence. Significant zinc intercepts and an overview of the interpreted geology is presented in Figure 6.

Oxiana Joint Venture

On 8 May 2007, Legend announced a Farm-In and Joint Venture Agreement with Oxiana Exploration Pty Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oxiana Limited (Oxiana).

Under the terms of the agreement, Oxiana may earn a 75% interest in the project by funding \$10 million of exploration within 7 years, with Legend 25% free-carried to completion of a bankable feasibility study and a decision to mine. Oxiana must spend \$1.2 million within 18 months before having a right to withdraw.

During the second half of 2007, Oxiana developed an exploration strategy for the Project and commenced relogging historic drillholes and interrogating the extensive geochemical dataset. Drillhole targeting will be undertaken during the first quarter of 2008 with downhole geophysics and diamond drilling planned to commence in the second quarter of 2008. Technical input from Oxiana geologists at the Golden Grove mine site, whose experience in the region and with this style of mineralisation, will be extremely valuable in assisting exploration activities.

The information relating to Exploration in this report is based on data compiled by Mr Derek Waterfield, a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists and a full time employee of Legend Mining Limited. Mr Waterfield has sufficient relevant experience in the styles of mineralisation and types of deposit under consideration, and in the activity he is undertaking, to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the "Australian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves" (the JORC Code), and consents to the inclusion of the information in the form and context in which it appears.

CORPORATE ACIVITIES

Sale of Gidgee Gold Project and return of capital

On 3 May 2007, the Company announced it had agreed to sell its Gidgee Gold Project (tenements, plant and infrastructure) to Apex Minerals NL (Apex) for a consideration of \$11 million, payable by the issue of 34 million Apex shares which the Company announced would be distributed in-specie to shareholders. Contingent consideration of \$5 million will be paid by Apex to the Company once a production milestone of 250,000oz of gold from the Gidgee Gold Project tenements is reached.

Settlement of this Sale Agreement was effected on 13 August 2007 and Apex issued 34 million shares to Legend.

The Company sent out a notice of meeting to shareholders on 20 September 2007 seeking shareholder approval for the return of capital via a distribution in-specie of the Apex shares.

The return of capital was approved by shareholders at the General Meeting on 25 October 2007 and was completed on 12 November 2007. Shareholders received 1 Apex share for every 33.8285 Legend shares held on 12 November 2007 ("Record Date"). Based on the closing price of Apex shares of \$1.27 at the Record Date, the return of capital equated to 3.75 cents per Legend share.

As a result of the return of capital the exercise price of all outstanding options was reduced by 3.75 cents per option. The Company's quoted 31 July 2008 options exercise price is now 0.25 cents per option.

The Company has received a draft tax ruling from the Australian Taxation Office ("ATO") on what proportion of the return of capital the ATO deems to be an unfranked dividend and therefore what proportion is deemed a return of capital. The Company's tax specialists are engaged in further dialogue with the ATO on this draft tax ruling and the Company will advise shareholders of the outcome as soon as possible.

Exercise of Options during the year

A total of 226,052,491 listed and unlisted 4 cent options were exercised prior to the return of capital, thereby raising \$9,042,100. As at 31 December 2007, a further 9,710,109 listed 0.25 cent options have been exercised since the return of capital thereby raising an additional \$24,275.

At 31 December 2007 Legend had cash reserves of \$13.3 million. Legend has applied approximately \$1.4 million of these funds as security for environmental performance bonds on its projects. This has had the effect of discharging all of Mr Mark Creasy's security for the Company's environmental performance bonds.

Legend is committed to implementing and maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance. In determining what those standards should involve, Legend has turned to the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Principles of Good Corporate Governance and Best Practice Recommendations. Legend is pleased to advise that its practices are largely consistent with those of the ASX guidelines. Where Legend did not have certain policies or committees recommended by the ASX Corporate Governance Council in place for the entire reporting period, we have identified when such policies or committees were introduced. Where Legend has not adopted the relevant recommendation, the reasons are set out below.

1. BOARD OF DIRECTORS

1.1 Role of Board

The Legend Board of Directors (the Board) is responsible for setting the strategic direction and establishing and overseeing the policies and financial position of Legend, and monitoring the business and affairs on behalf of its shareholders, by whom the Directors are elected and to whom they are accountable.

Further, the Board takes specific responsibility for:-

  • the appointment and removal of the Managing Director and the Company Secretary,
  • the final approval of management's development of corporate strategies and performance objectives,
  • the review and modification of internal controls with respect to internal and legal compliance and its code of conduct,
  • monitoring and evaluating senior management's performance and the implementation of Legend's corporate strategies and objectives,
  • ensuring that appropriate resources are available to achieve strategic objectives,
  • the appointment of Directors to the Board and ensuring those Directors receive a letter of appointment identifying their duties and specific responsibilities, Legend's expectations of them, their remuneration and their obligations with respect to advising Legend of any compliance matters.

The Board is responsible for the overall Corporate Governance of Legend including the strategic direction, establishing goals for management and monitoring the achievement of these goals.

Legend has a formal Board Charter as per Recommendation 1.1. In broad terms, the Board is accountable to the shareholders and must ensure that Legend is properly managed to protect and enhance shareholders' wealth and other interests. The Board Charter sets out the role and responsibilities of the Board of Legend within the governance structure of Legend and its related bodies corporate (as defined in the Corporations Act).

1.2 Terms of Office of Directors

The constitution of Legend Mining Limited specifies that 1/3 of the Directors, excluding the Managing Director, shall rotate on an annual basis.

1.3 Composition of the Board

The Directors of Legend in office at the date of this statement are:-

Name Position Expertise
Michael Atkins Non Executive Commercial
Mark Wilson Managing Director Commercial and Mining
Dermot Ryan Non Executive Director Exploration and Mining

The composition of the Board is determined using the following principles:

  • the Board comprises three (3) Directors and may be increased where it is felt that additional expertise is required in specific areas, or when an outstanding candidate is identified, and
  • the Board should comprise Directors with a broad range of expertise.

The Board reviews its composition on an annual basis to ensure that the Board has the appropriate mix of expertise and experience. When a vacancy exists, for whatever reason, or where it is considered that the Board would benefit from the services of a new Director with particular skills, the Board selects a panel of candidates with the appropriate expertise and experience. Potential candidates are identified by the Board with advice from an external consultant, if necessary. The Board then appoints the most suitable candidate who must stand for election at a General Meeting of Shareholders.

1.4 Responsibilities of the Board

In general, the Board is responsible for, and has authority to determine all matters relating to the policies, practices, management and operations of the Company. It is required to do all things that may be necessary to be done in order to carry out the objectives of Legend.

In general, the principal functions and responsibilities of the Board include the following:-

Leadership of the Organisation: Overseeing the Company and establishing codes that reflect the values of the Company and guide the conduct of the Board, management and employees,

Strategy Formulation: working with senior management to set and review the overall strategy and goals for the Company and ensure that there are policies in place to govern the operation of the Company,

Overseeing Planning Activities: overseeing the development of the Company's strategic plan and approving that plan as well as the annual and long term budgets,

Shareholder Liaison: ensuring effective communication with shareholders through an appropriate communications policy and promoting participation at general meetings of the Company,

Monitoring, Compliance and Risk Management: overseeing the Company's risk management, compliance and accountability systems and monitoring and directing the financial and operational performance of the Company,

Company Finances: approving expenses in excess of those approved in the annual budget and approving and monitoring acquisitions, divestitures and financial and other reporting,

Human Resources: appointing, and where appropriate, removing the Managing Director (MD) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) as well as reviewing the performance of the MD and monitoring the performance of senior management in their implementation of the Company's strategy,

Ensuring the Health, Safety and Well-Being of Employees: developing a policy, and in conjunction with the senior management team, developing, overseeing and reviewing the effectiveness of the Company's occupational health and safety systems to ensure the well-being of all employees,

Delegation of Authority: delegating appropriate powers to the MD to ensure the effective day-to–day management of the Company,

Environmental Management: developing a policy, and in conjunction with the senior management team, developing, overseeing and reviewing the effectiveness of the Company's environmental management systems.

1.5 Monitoring of Board Performance

The performance of all Directors is reviewed by the Chairman on an ongoing basis and any Director whose performance is considered unsatisfactory is asked to retire. The Chairman's performance is reviewed by the other Board members.

Legend has established firm guidelines to identify the measurable and qualitative indicators of the Director's performance during the course of the year. Those guidelines include:

  • attendance at all Board meetings. Missing more than three consecutive meetings without reasonable excuse will result in that Director's position being reviewed,
  • attendance at Legend's Shareholder Meetings. Non-attendance without reasonable excuse will result in that Director's position being reviewed.

Legend does not comply with Recommendation 2.1 which states the majority of Directors should be independent directors. Mr Atkins is the only Director considered independent and acts as Chairman of the Company, as required under Recommendation 2.2.

1.6 Independent Professional Advice

Each Director has the right, in connection with his/her duties and responsibilities as a Director, to seek independent professional advice at Legend's expense. However, prior approval of the Chairman is required, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

2. BOARD COMMITTEES

2.1 Nomination Committee

A separate nomination committee has not been formed as required under Recommendation 2.4 as the Board considers the selection and appointment of Directors should be the responsibility of the full Board and that no benefits or efficiencies are to be gained by delegating this function to a separate committee.

2.2 Audit Committee

Due to its size and composition, the Board has not established a separate audit committee as requested by Recommendation 4.2. However, the external auditor has full access to the Board throughout the year.

The responsibilities of the Board ordinarily include:-

  • reviewing internal control and recommending enhancements,
  • monitoring compliance with Corporations Act 2001, Securities Exchange Listing Rules, matters outstanding with auditors, Australian Taxation Office, Australian Securities and Investment Commission and financial institutions,
  • improving the quality of the accounting function,
  • reviewing external audit reports to ensure that where major deficiencies or breakdowns in controls or procedures have been identified, appropriate and prompt remedial action is taken by management, and
  • liaising with the external auditors and ensuring that the annual audit and half-year review are conducted in an effective manner.

The Board reviews the performance of the external auditors on an annual basis and nomination of auditors is at the discretion of the Board.

2.3 Remuneration Committee

Due to the relatively small size of Legend, remuneration is considered by the full Board. This does not comply with Recommendation 9.2. The Board reviews remuneration packages and policies applicable to the Managing Director and Directors. Remuneration levels are competitively set to attract the most qualified and experienced Directors and Senior Executives. The Board obtains independent advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages.

An approved Employee Share Option Plan (excludes Directors) is in place to enable the Board to grant share options as an incentive for superior performance to eligible employees.

A full disclosure of the Company's remuneration philosophy and framework and the remuneration received by Directors and Executives in the current period are set out in the remuneration report, which is contained within the Directors' Report.

Overall Director Remuneration: Shareholders must approve the framework for any equity schemes if a Director is recommended for being able to participate in such a scheme.

Non-Executive Remuneration: Shareholders approve the maximum aggregate remuneration for Non-Executive Directors. The maximum aggregate remuneration approved for Non-Executive Directors is currently \$200,000 per annum.

3. BUSINESS RISKS

Significant areas of concern are discussed at Board level. When appropriate, experts are invited to address Board meetings on the major risks facing the consolidated entity and to develop strategies to mitigate those risks.

4. ETHICAL STANDARDS

Legend has a formal Code of Conduct as per Recommendation 3.1. This code outlines how Legend expects directors and employees of Legend and its related bodies corporate to behave and conduct business in the workplace on a range of issues. Legend is committed to the highest level of integrity and ethical standards in all business practices. Directors and employees must conduct themselves in a manner consistent with current community and corporate standards and in compliance with all legislation. In addition, the Board subscribes to the Statement of Ethical Standards as published by the Australian Institute of Company Directors.

All Directors and employees are expected to act with the utmost integrity and objectivity, striving at all times to enhance the reputation and performance of the Company.

5. DIRECTORS' DEALINGS IN COMPANY SHARES

Legend has a formal trading policy as required by Recommendation 3.2 entitled: Guidelines for Dealing in Securities. This policy applies to directors, employees and contractors of Legend.

In addition, directors must notify the Australian Securities Exchange of any acquisition or disposal of shares by lodgement of a Notice of Director's Interests. Board policy is to prohibit Directors and Employees from dealing in shares of the Company whilst in possession of price sensitive information.

6. CORPORATE REPORTING

On submission of a set of the Company financial reports for review by the Board, senior management confirms that to the best of their knowledge and ability the financial reports present a true and fair view in all material aspects of the Company's financial condition and that operational results are in accordance with relevant accounting standards.

Further, the statement made by senior management regarding the integrity of the financial statements also includes a statement regarding risk management and internal compliance and control which influence the policies adopted by the Board.

7. CONTINUOUS DISCLOSURE AND SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATION

Legend has a formal Continuous Disclosure and Information Policy as required by Recommendation 6.1. This policy was introduced to ensure Legend achieves best practice in complying with its continuous disclosure obligations under the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules and ensuring Legend and individual officers do not contravene the Corporations Act or ASX Listing Rules.

The Board of Legend aims to ensure that the shareholders, on behalf of whom they act, are informed of all information necessary to assess the performance of the Directors. Information is communicated to shareholders through:-

  • the Annual Report which is distributed to all shareholders,
  • Half-Yearly Reports, Quarterly Reports, and all Australian Securities Exchange announcements which are posted on Legend's website,
  • the Annual General Meeting and other meetings so called to obtain approval for Board action as appropriate,
  • compliance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Australian Securities Exchange Listing Rules.

Legend's auditor is required to be present, and be available to shareholders, at the Annual General Meeting.

8. RECOGNISE AND MANAGE RISK

Risk oversight, management and internal control are dealt with on a continuous basis by management and the Board, with differing degrees of involvement from various Directors and management, depending upon the nature and materiality of the matter.

The Board has no formal policy in place to recognise and manage risk as required by Recommendation 7.1, as it considers, in the context of the size and nature of the Company, that it would not improve the present modus operandi.

9. ENCOURAGE ENHANCED PERFORMANCE

Board and management effectiveness are dealt with on a continuous basis by management and the Board, with differing degrees of involvement from various Directors and management, depending upon the nature of the matter.

The Board has no formal policy in place to encourage enhanced performance as required by Recommendation 8.1, as it considers, in the context of the size and nature of the Company, that it would not improve the present modus operandi.

10. RECOGNISE THE LEGITIMATE INTERESTS OF STAKEHOLDERS

Legend has a formal Privacy Policy. Legend is committed to respecting the privacy of stakeholders' personal information. This Privacy Policy sets out Legend's personal information management practices and covers the application of privacy laws, personal information collection, the use and disclosure of personal information, accessing and updating stakeholders' information and the Security of stakeholders' information.

Other than the introduction of a formal Privacy Policy, the Board has not adopted any additional formal codes of conduct to guide compliance with legal and other obligations to legitimate stakeholders as required by Recommendation 10.1, as it considers, in the context of the size and nature of the Company, that it would not improve the present modus operandi.

The Directors submit their report for the year ended 31 December 2007.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share after dividend: 2.61 cents
Diluted earnings per share after dividend: 2.46 cents

4. DIVIDENDS

Following the announcement of the agreement to sell the Gidgee Gold Project to Apex Minerals NL, your directors sought and received legal, taxation and accounting advice on the proposed return of capital. The taxation and accounting advice on the return of capital was that any return of capital over and above the amount of funds invested by the Company into the Gidgee Gold Project (\$30.3 million) was likely to be deemed as an unfranked dividend.

The Company, through its taxation advisors, sought a tax ruling on this matter and received a draft tax ruling from the Australian Taxation Office ("ATO") on what proportion of the return of capital the ATO would deem an unfranked dividend for taxation purposes and therefore what proportion is deemed a return of capital. The draft tax ruling from ATO advised that any return of capital over and above \$11 million, being the sale agreement value of the consideration received from Apex, would be deemed an unfranked dividend for taxation purposes. As a result of the draft tax ruling from the ATO, your Company received further advice that, for the return of capital, it should withhold tax from overseas shareholders and Australian shareholders who had not provided a tax file number on the basis that any return of capital over and above \$11 million would be deemed an unfranked dividend for taxation purposes.

On 12 November 2007, as a result of the return of capital of 34,000,000 Apex shares and the value of \$1.27 per Apex share, the Company received advice from its taxation and accounting advisors that an unfranked dividend of \$12,845,614 or 1.12 cents per share was deemed to be paid to shareholders. This deemed dividend represents the difference between the amount invested by the company into the Gidgee Gold Project and the value of the Apex shares at the Record Date for the return of capital

The Company's tax specialists are engaged in further dialogue with the ATO on its draft tax ruling and the Company will advise shareholders of the outcome as soon as possible.

Details of key management personnel

(ii) Executives
T. Walsh Company Secretary
D. Waterfield Exploration Manager
B. Phyland District Geologist
P. Petrovic Systems Administrator
L. Mitchell Care & Maintenance Manager – Resigned 9 May 2007

Compensation Philosophy

The performance of the Company depends upon the quality of its Directors and Executives. To prosper, the Company must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled Directors and Executives.

The Company embodies the following principle in its compensation framework:

• Provide competitive rewards to attract high-calibre executives.

Remuneration Committee

Due to the size of Legend, remuneration is considered by the full Board. The Board reviews remuneration packages and policies applicable to the Directors and Senior Executives. Remuneration levels are competitively set to attract the most qualified and experienced Directors and Senior Executives. The Board obtains independent advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages.

Compensation Structure

In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of Non Executive Director and senior manager remuneration is separate and distinct.

Objective of Non Executive Director Compensation

The Board seeks to set aggregate compensation at a level that provides the company with the ability to attract and retain Directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders.

Structure of Non Executive Director Compensation

The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate compensation of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount determined is then divided between the directors as agreed. The latest determination was at the Annual General Meeting held on 30 May 2006 when shareholders approved the aggregate remuneration of \$200,000 per year.

The amount of aggregate compensation sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst directors is reviewed annually. The Board considers advice from external consultants as well as the fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process.

13. REMUNERATION REPORT (CONTD)

Objective of Senior Management and Executive Director Compensation

The company aims to reward executives with a level and mix of compensation commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the company and so as to:-

  • reward executives for company and individual performance against targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks,
  • align the interests of executives with those of shareholders, and
  • ensure total compensation is competitive by market standards.

Structure of Senior Management and Executive Director Compensation

In determining the level and make-up of executive compensation, the Board engages external consultants to provide independent advice.

It is the Board's policy that an employment contract is entered into with key executives.

Compensation consists of a fixed compensation element and the issue of options from time to time at the directors' discretion under the Employee Share Option Plan. Any issue of options to directors under the Employee Share Option Plan requires prior shareholder approval.

Fixed Compensation

Fixed compensation is reviewed annually by the Board. The process consists of a review of company and individual performance, relevant comparative compensation in the market and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices.

Structure

Senior managers are given the opportunity to receive their fixed (primary) compensation in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefits. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the Company.

Employment contracts

The Managing Director, Mr Mark Wilson, is employed under contract. The current employment contract commenced on the 1 July 2007 and terminates on the 30 June 2008, at which time the Company may choose to commence negotiations to enter into a new employment contract.

  • Mr Wilson receives remuneration of \$250,000 per annum plus GST.
  • Mr Wilson may resign from his position and thus terminate his contract by giving 1 month written notice.
  • The company may terminate Mr Wilson's employment contract by providing 1 month written notice or by providing payment in lieu of notice period (based on the fixed component of his remuneration)
  • The company may terminate Mr Wilson's contract at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred. Where termination with cause occurs Mr Wilson is only entitled to that portion of remuneration that is fixed, and only up to the date of termination.

Employee Share Option Plan

The Board has in place an Employee Share Option Plan allowing share options to eligible employees in order to provide them with an incentive to provide growth and value to all shareholders. 3,450,000 options were issued to eligible employees during the year under the Employee Share Option Plan.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

(c) Summary of significant accounting policies

(i) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Legend Mining Limited and its subsidiaries ('the Group').

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether a group controls another entity.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group.

In the company's financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost.

(ii) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimate and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:

Share-based payment transactions

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled share-based payments at fair value at the grant date using a black-scholes formula taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted.

Impairment of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure

The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale.

Factors which could impact the future recoverability include the level of proved, probable and inferred mineral resources, future technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices.

To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, this will reduce profits and net assets in the period in which the determination is made.

In addition, exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised if activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. To the extent that it is determined in the future that this capitalised expenditure should be written off, this will reduce profits and net assets in the period in which this determination is made.

Provision for Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation costs are a normal consequence of mining, and the majority of this expenditure is incurred at the end of a mine's life. In determining an appropriate level of provision consideration is given to the expected future costs to be incurred, the timing of these expected future costs (largely dependent on the life of the mine), and the estimated level of inflation.

The ultimate costs of rehabilitation is uncertain and cost can vary in response to many factors including changes to the relevant legal requirement, the emergence of new restoration techniques or experience at other mine sites. The expected timing of expenditure can also change, for example in response to changes in reserves.

Changes to any of the estimates could result in significant changes to the level of provisioning required, which would in turn impact future financial results.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

(iii) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the useful life of the asset from the time the asset is held ready for use.

Production assets are not depreciated during periods where mining activity is placed on a care and maintenance basis.

The depreciation rates used for each class are:

Buildings 10%
Plant and equipment 7.5% - 50%
Leased plant and equipment 22.5%

Impairment

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date, with recoverable amount being estimated when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

If any indication of impairment exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amounts.

The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

Derecognition and disposal

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset.

Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in the income statement in the period the item is derecognised.

(iv) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred.

(v) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand, short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purposes of the Cash Flow Statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.

(vi) Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 day terms, are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts.

Collectibility of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified. An allowance for doubtful debts is raised when there is objective evidence that the group will not be able to collect the debt.

(vii) Other Financial Assets

Financial assets in the scope of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale investments, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transactions costs. The Group determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year-end.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date i.e. the date that the Group commits to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets under contracts that require delivery of the assets within the period established generally by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets classified as held for trading are included in the category 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss'. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on investments held for trading are recognised in profit or loss.

Held-to-maturity investments

Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-to-maturity when the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Investments intended to be held for an undefined period are not included in this classification. Investments that are intended to be held-to-maturity, such as bonds, are subsequently measured at amortised cost. This cost is computed as the amount initially recognised minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between the initially recognised amount and the maturity amount. This calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums and discounts. For investments carried at amortised cost, gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

Available-for-sale investments

Available-for-sale investments are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as any of the three preceding categories. After initial recognition available-for sale investments are measured at fair value with gains or losses being recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is recognised in profit or loss.

The fair value of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the balance sheet date. For investments with no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include using recent arm's length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument that is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models.

(viii) Inventories

Stores

Inventories of consumable supplies and spare parts are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is assigned on a weighted average basis.

(ix) Deferred exploration costs

Deferred exploration and evaluation costs

Exploration and evaluation expenditure is stated at cost and is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest.

Mining information is stated at cost.

Such costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area of interest (or alternatively by its sale), or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active operations are continuing.

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off to the income statement in the period in which the decision to abandon the area is made.

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

Impairment

The carrying values of exploration and evaluation costs are reviewed for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The recoverable amount of exploration and evaluation costs is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the fair value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against the income statement in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. Each area of interest is limited to the size related to known or probable mineral resources capable of supporting a mining operation.

(x) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

Rehabilitation provision

Long-term environmental obligations are based on the Group's environmental management plans, in compliance with current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Full provision is made, based on the net present value of the estimated cost of restoring the environmental disturbance that has occurred up to the balance sheet date. Increases due to additional environmental disturbances are capitalised and amortised over the remaining lives of the mines. These increases are accounted for on a net present value basis.

Annual increases in the provision relating to the change in the net present value of the provision are accounted for in earnings.

The estimated costs of rehabilitation are reviewed annually and adjusted as appropriate for changes in legislation, technology and other circumstances. Cost estimates are not reduced by the potential proceeds from the sale of assets or from plant clean-up at closure.

(xi) Revenue

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

Sale of goods

Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. Risks and rewards of ownership are considered passed to the buyer at the time of delivery of the goods to the customer.

Interest income

Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest 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.

Rental Income

Rental income is accounted for on a straight line basis over the lease term.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

(xii) Income tax

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax law used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:

  • Except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
  • In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:

  • Except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary differences arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
  • In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amounts of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax assets to be utilised.

Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the income statement.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

(xiii) Other taxes

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except;

  • where the amount of the GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation 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 are stated with the amount of GST included.
  • The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the Balance Sheet.

Cashflows are included in the Cash Flow Statement on a gross basis. The GST components of cashflows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the ATO are classed as operating cashflows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

(xiv) Recoverable amounts of assets

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Group makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value less costs to sell and it does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the income statement. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset's revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

(xv) Trade and or other payables

Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts 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 these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days.

(xvi) Interest bearing loans and borrowings

All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs.

After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount or premium on settlement.

(xvii) Share based payment transactions

The Group provides benefits to employees (including directors) of the Group and to the providers of services to the Group in the form of share based payment transactions, whereby employees or service providers render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares ('equitysettled transactions').

There are currently three scenarios in place to provide these services:

  • (a) 'Employees Share Option Plan', which provides benefits to eligible persons;
  • (b) Capital raising costs, which provide payment to stockbrokers and finance institutions for capital raising services and commissions; and
  • (c) Other grants of options to directors on an ad hoc basis.

The cost of the equity-settled transactions with stockbrokers and finance institutions is measured by reference to the fair value of the service received at the date they are granted.

For transactions with employees (including directors), the cost of these equity-settled transactions is measured by reference to the fair value of the options provided. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using a Black-Scholes model.

The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employee becomes fully entitled to the award ('vesting date').

In valuing these equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Legend Mining Limited (market conditions) if applicable.

The cumulative expense recognised for these equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the Group's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The income statement charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expenses recognised as at the beginning and end of the period.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon a market condition.

If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.

If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However , if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

For transactions with other service providers, the cost of these equity-settled transactions is measured by reference to the value of the services provided. The cost of these equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, at the time the services are provided unless they are transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares, in which case the transaction costs are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the proceeds received on the issue of shares.

(xvii) Contributed Equity

Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs net of tax arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the proceeds received.

(xix) Employee Benefits

Provision is made for employee benefits accumulated as a result of employee services up to the reporting date. These employee benefits include wages, salaries, annual leave and include related on-costs such as superannuation and payroll tax.

Provision for annual leave together with the associated employment on-costs are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled.

No provision is made for non-vesting sick leave, as the anticipated pattern of future sick leave taken indicates that accumulated non vesting sick leave will never be paid.

The liability for long service leave is recognised and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures, and period of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflow.

No long service leave has been provided for in these financial statements.

Contributions to employee superannuation funds of choice are expensed as incurred.

(xx) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated as net loss attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity (other than dividends), divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

Diluted EPS is calculated as net loss attributable to members, adjusted for:

  • (i) Costs of servicing equity (other than dividends).
  • (ii) The after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with the dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
  • (iii) Other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares;

divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

(xxi) Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Group's principal financial instruments, comprise loans and borrowings, and cash and short-term deposits.

The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group's operations. The Group has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. It is, and has been throughout the period under review, the Group's policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken. The main risks arise from the Group's financial instruments are fair value interest rate risks, liquidity risk, and credit risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed elsewhere in note 2 to the financial statements.

Fair value interest risk

The Group's exposure to the risk of change in the fair value of its loans and borrowings relates primarily to the Group's debt obligations with a fixed interest rate. The Group's policy is to manage this risk using a mixture of long and short term debt, and equity.

Foreign currency risk

The Group's exposure to foreign currency risk is minimal.

Commodity price risk

The Group's exposure to price risk is minimal.

Credit risk

The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties.

It is the Group's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures.

In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is not significant.

There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group.

With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, the Group's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.

Since the Group only trades with recognised third parties, there is no requirement for collateral.

Liquidity risk

The Group's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of a mixture of long and short term debt.

(xxii) Interest in a jointly controlled operation

The Group has four interests in joint ventures that are jointly controlled operations. A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby two or more parties undertake an economic activity that is subject to joint control. A jointly controlled operation involves the use of assets and other resources of the venturers rather than establishment of a separate entity. The Group recognises its interest in the jointly controlled operations by recognising its interest in the assets and the liabilities of the joint ventures. The Group also recognises the expenses that it incurs and its share of the income that it earns from the sale of goods or services by the jointly controlled operations. For details of joint ventures please refer note 25.

NOTE 3: NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

The principal activity of the Group is:

• Exploration for gold and base metal (nickel-copper-zinc) deposits at Gum Creek, Mt Gibson and the Pilbara.

NOTE 6: INCOME TAX (CONTD)

Tax Consolidation

Legend Mining Limited and its 100% owner Australian resident subsidiaries have formed a tax consolidated group with effect from 1 July 2004. Legend Mining Limited is the head entity of the tax consolidated group. Members of the group have entered into a tax sharing agreement in order to allocate income tax expense to the wholly owned subsidiaries on a pro-rata basis. In addition, the agreement provides for the allocation of income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations. At the balance date, the possibility of default is remote.

Tax effect accounting by member of the tax consolidated group

Tax expense / income, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences are recognised in the separate financial statements of the members of the tax consolidated group using the group allocation method. Current tax liabilities and assets and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits of the members of the tax consolidated group are recognised by the Company (as head entity in the tax consolidated group).

Members of the tax consolidated group have not entered into a tax funding agreement. As a result, the aggregate of the current tax liability or asset and any deferred tax asset arising from unused tax losses and tax credits in respect of that period, assumed by the Company, are recognised as a contribution from (or distribution to) equity participants.

NOTE 7: SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company operates in one business and geographical segment, being the mining and exploration for gold and base metals (nickel-copperzinc) in Australia.

Note:

  • (i) As part of the continuing tenement rationalisation, Legend Mining Limited lodged new tenement applications over areas covered by Gidgee Resources Limited tenement application. Expenditure allocated to these Gidgee Resources Limited tenements was reassigned to the new tenement applications.
  • (ii) Carrying values for certain tenements were reviewed and subject to the following conditions being met;
  • (1) no substantive expenditure for further exploration in the specific areas has been budgeted for;
  • (2) exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area has not led to the discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral resources;
  • (3) it was decided to discontinue such activities in the specific areas;

it was decided to write off the carrying values (\$5,412,686) of the affected tenements, which included the impairment of the Gidgee tenements to the recoverable amounts.

(iii)The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale.

Expense arising from Expense Share Option Plan - 2,650,000 - 2,650,000

(b) Types of share-based payment plans

Employee Share Option Plan, 'ESOP'

Share options are granted to Eligible Persons with more than 6 months' service. Eligible Persons are determined by the Board after taking into account the following considerations:

  • (i) the seniority of the Eligible Person and the position the Eligible Person occupies within the Group;
  • (ii) the length of service of the Eligible Person with the Group;
  • (iii) the record of employment of the Eligible Person with the Group;
  • (iv) the contractual history of the Eligible Person with the Group;
  • (v) the potential contribution of the Eligible Person to the growth of the Group;
  • (vi) the extent (if any) of the existing participation of the Eligible Person in the Plan; and
  • (vii) any other matters which the Board considers relevant.

The ESOP is designed to align participants' interests with those of shareholders by increasing the value of the Company's shares. Under the ESOP, the exercise price of the options is set "at least 80% of the average closing sale price of the Shares on ASX over the five trading days immediately preceding the day of issue of Options by the Board" as per the terms stated in the ESOP.

Options may be exercised at any time during the period commencing 12 months after the Issue Date and ending on the Expiry.

When an Eligible Person ceases employment prior to the first anniversary of the Issue Date otherwise than to take up employment with an Associate Company, or ceases to be an Eligible Person on account of Retirement, Permanent Disability, Redundancy or death, the share options automatically lapse and are forfeited.

When an Eligible Person ceases employment after the first anniversary of the Issue Date and prior to the Expiry Date otherwise than to take up employment with an Associate Company, or ceases to be an Eligible Person on account of Retirement, Permanent Disability, Redundancy or death, the share options automatically lapse and are forfeited if the Eligible Person fails to exercise any or all of the options within a period of three months from the date of cessation of employment.

Expense Share Option Plan, 'ExSOP'

No options were issued under the "Expense Share Option Plan, ExSOP"

NOTE 21: CASH FLOW INFORMATION (CONTD)

Non cash financing and investment activities

During the financial year, the consolidated entity transacted the following non cash activities:

(a) Gidgee Gold Project was sold to Apex Minerals NL for a consideration of 11,000,000 payable by the issue of 34,000,000 Apex shares.

NOTE 22: COMMITMENTS

(a) Exploration expenditure commitments.

In order to maintain current rights of tenure to exploration tenements, the Company will be required to outlay in 2008 amounts of approximately \$1,373,980 (2006: \$3,367,880) in respect of tenement lease rentals and to meet minimum expenditure requirements of the Department of Industry & Resources. These obligations are expected to be fulfilled in the normal course of operations and have not been provided for in the financial report.

Note: This is the maximum commitment to exploration, to fully meet DOIR requirements. In practice, Legend has routinely applied for and been granted exemptions from meeting these requirements on a tenement by tenement basis. As a result the actual amount required to be expended on exploration is expected to be less than \$1.35 million, while still holding all the tenements in good standing.

The taxation and accounting advice on the return of capital was that any return of capital over and above the amount of funds invested by the Company into the Gidgee Gold Project (\$30.3 million) was likely to be deemed as an unfranked dividend.

The Company, through its taxation advisors, sought a tax ruling on this matter and received a draft tax ruling from the Australian Taxation Office ("ATO") on what proportion of the return of capital the ATO would deem an unfranked dividend for taxation purposes and therefore what proportion is deemed a return of capital. The draft tax ruling from ATO advised that any return of capital over and above \$11 million, being the sale agreement value of the consideration received from Apex, would be deemed an unfranked dividend for taxation purposes. As a result of the draft tax ruling from the ATO, your Company received further advice that, for the return of capital, it should withhold tax from overseas shareholders and Australian shareholders who had not provided a tax file number on the basis that any return of capital over and above \$11 million would be deemed an unfranked dividend for taxation purposes.

On 12 November 2007, as a result of the return of capital of 34,000,000 Apex shares and the value of \$1.27 per Apex share, the Company received advice from its taxation and accounting advisors that an unfranked dividend of \$12,845,614 or 1.12 cents per share was deemed to be paid to shareholders. This deemed dividend represents the difference between the amount invested by the company into the Gidgee Gold Project and the value of the Apex shares at the Record Date for the return of capital

The Company's tax specialists are engaged in further dialogue with the ATO on its draft tax ruling and the Company will advise shareholders of the outcome as soon as possible.
