METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
Cancet Channel Sampling Program
The detailed trenching and channel sampling program was completed by Dahrouge Geological Consultants and was undertaken by a crew of two geologists over five days. The Cancet Project is road accessible all year round and is bisected by the Trans Taiga Highway, located approximately 100km east of La Grande 3 Airport. There are no logistical challenges with gaining access to the Cancet Project as a result of its favourable.
location and proximity to supporting infrastructure. Cancet is also located in close proximity to other operating mines, including lithium, gold and copper.
Over the course of the five days, three outcrops were trenched and channel sampled, resulting in the collection of 26 samples.

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
At each outcrop, the widest section was selected as the location to dig a trench. Hand tools were used to remove as much soil and overburden as possible, perpendicular to the strike of the outcrops. Once the trench was excavated, spray paint was used to draw the outline of the channel. A diamond blade Stihl saw was used to cut two parallel lines down each side of the spray paint, approximately 6cm wide. From the start point of the channel, a horizontal distance of 1m was used as the sampling interval. The sample breaks were marked with spray paint and a cut was made perpendicular to the channel for the end of each sample. A hammer and chisel was used to the remove the rock sample from within the channel, which was then placed in a pre-labelled bag. The physical length of the sample along the outcrop was measured and photographs were taken of each sample.
Samples were sent to Activation Laboratories in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis. All samples were tested with the analytical package “UT-7” package whereby a sodium peroxide fusion is used to digest the sample and then tested with a multi-element ICP-OES and ICP-MS finish.
==> picture [155 x 170] intentionally omitted <==
Due to the high levels of tantalum from the ICP results, all samples were tested with the “8-coltan” analytical package to obtain a precise result.
Channel 1 (CH16-01)
CH16-01 was approximately 12m in length trending at 028° and 12 samples were collected in total. The original outcrop was approximately 4m wide, however trenching uncovered an additional 8m of mineralized pegmatite. The extent of the outcrop on the northeast side of the trench remains open. Trenching ceased only due to limitations of the hand tools being used, not due to lack of outcrop.

Summary
The results of the detailed channel sampling program have confirmed that the outcrops located and sampled in the in the high priority drill target zones at the Cancet Lithium Project are consistently mineralised. A total of 13 samples return Li2O values >1.0%, with a high of 5.58% Li2O.
The average value from all samples collected was 1.47% Li2O which is higher than the current major lithium deposits in Quebec including:
Nemaska Lithium (TSX:NMX) Whabouchi Deposit 43.8Mt @ 1.46% Li2O (NI 43-101) Galaxy Resources (ASX:GXY) James Bay Deposit 22.2Mt @ 1.28% Li2O (JORC) Sayona Mining (ASX:SYA) Authier Deposit 13.75Mt @ 1.06% Li2O (JORC) Critical Elements Corp (TSX-V:CRE) Rose Deposit 37.2Mt @ 0.95% Li2O (NI 43-101)
The width of each of the three channel samples were limited only by the exposure of rock before the rock could no longer be cleared by hand tools and remains open. This demonstrates the significant potential that remains at the Cancet Lithium Project to further increase both the size and scale of the spodumene-bearing pegmatite outcrops at surface.

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
In addition, the majority of the samples collected returned anomalous tantalum (Ta2O5) values, which will likely increase the economic potential of the mineralised pegmatite. The average of all samples received at the Cancet Lithium Project for tantalum that were above the minimum detection limit of 30 ppm Ta2O5 was 102.5 ppm Ta2O5, with the highest value returning 380 ppm Ta2O5.

Preliminary Metallurgical Testing
A 5kg sample of mineralised pegmatite from the Cancet Lithium Project was subjected to metallurgical analysis to generate an indicative profile. Testing was completed at NAGROM Laboratories in Perth under the supervision of Mr Noel O’Brien, Trinol Pty Ltd and Primero.
The sample was sourced from a pegmatite outcrop exhibiting visual spodumene crystal formations within the drill target zone, which the Company channel sampled during a pre-drilling site visit in early March 2017. The sample was sent directly to NAGROM, where indicative mineralogy profiling and metallurgical testing was carried out:
-
Crushing to 10mm for analysis and density profiling by Heavy Liquid Separation (HLS) after screening fines at 1mm
-
The content of the 2.95 sinks fractions were examined by XRD mineralogy to determine the dominant lithium mineral

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NAGROM reported the following results:
| SG Fraction | Mass Yield % |
Assay % Li2O |
Lithium Deportment |
Mineralogy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3.0 sink | 10.17% | 6.48 | 62.4% | 67% spodumene,9% mica |
| 3.0 float | 2.91% | 5.39 | 14.9% | 44% spodumene,6% mica |
| 2.95 float | 0.96% | 4.48 | 4.1% | |
| 2.9 float | 3.17% | 3.37 | 10.1% | |
| 2.8 float | 3.09% | 1.73 | 5.1% | |
| 2.7 float | 60.45% | 0.05 | 3.0% | |
| 2.6 float | 19.17% | 0.03 | 0.5% | |
| 2.5 float | 0.08% | 0.19 | 0.0% |
Table 1: HLS beneficiation on -10+1mm (1.20% Li2O outcrop sample)
In summary, using a 2.95 sink, a mass yield of 13% was obtained at a concentrate grade of 6.24% Li2O with an associated lithium deportment of 77% , which is well above the benchmark grade of 6% Li2O required to meet the battery market. This result was achieved at a crush size of 10mm from a sample with a head grade of 1.20% Li2O, which the Company considers is underestimating the high-grade nature of the pegmatite at Cancet having now completed Phase I drilling.
With such strong results from a relatively low head grade sample, there may be significant upside in both mass yields and concentrate grades. The opportunity to adopt a simple processing strategy is significant as it can ultimately lead to a considerably lower CAPEX and lower OPEX compared to peer operations, for a comparable output.
Also of significance is the results of the 2.7 floats which indicate that as much as 80% of the mass fed to the DMS only contains 3.5% of the lithium and could be sent directly to residue. This would result in a significant CAPEX and OPEX saving in the processing plant compared to other operations.
Peer Comparison
To put these results in perspective, the HLS results have been benchmarked against other lithium results. Tawana Resources (ASX:TAW) recently reported excellent metallurgical test results for its Bald Hill Project in Western Australia (see ASX announcement “Excellent Results from Large Scale Metallurgical Test Work” dated 16 March 2017) :
| Fraction | Mass Yield | Assay % Li2O |
Lithium Deportment |
|---|---|---|---|
| PrimaryConcentrate | 16.5% | 6.43 | 76.4% |
| Secondary Concentrate (middling product) |
16.1% | 1.95 | 17.1% |
| Waste | 67.4% | 0.14 | 6.5% |

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
With a comparable testing regime, Tawana achieved a mass yield of 16.5% producing a comparable 6.43 % Li2O concentrate with an associated lithium deportment of 76% at a crush size of 10mm from a composite feed with a head grade of 1.41% Li2O.
Tawana recently secured a binding offtake agreement for their 6% spodumene concentrate at US$880/t FOB Esperance (see ASX announcement “Lithium Offtake Agreement and Prepayment” dated 26 April 2017) .
Completion of Phase I Diamond Drilling Campaign
During the year, the Company completed a 40-hole diamond drilling campaign totalling approximately 4,350m designed to drill test the mineralised strike of the pegmatite.
Highlights include:
-
MTC17-021 – 21.46 m @ 2.24% Li2O and 310 ppm Ta2O5 from 5 m depth, including:
-
11.46 m @ 3.23% Li2O (15.00 m to 26.46 m); or
-
3.01 m @ 4.82% Li2O (16.99 m to 20.00 m); and
-
a sample high of 6.61% Li2O at 18 m depth
-
MTC17-022 – 17.00 m @ 2.06% Li2O and 327 ppm Ta2O5 from 6 m depth, including:
-
8.15 m @ 3.44% Li2O and 558 ppm Ta2O5 (6.00 to 14.15 m); or
-
4.00 m @ 4.72% Li2O (9.02 m to 13.02 m); and
-
a sample high of 5.55% Li2O at 10 m depth
-
MTC17-013 – 15.88 m @ 1.82% Li2O and 171 ppm Ta2O5 from 18.12 m depth, including:
-
5.00 m @ 2.88% Li2O and 126 ppm Ta2O5 (25.00 m to 30.00 m); and
-
a sample high of 4.61% Li2O at 25 m depth
-
MTC17-020 – 6.25 m @ 3.58% Li2O and 332 ppm Ta2O5
-
MTC17-025 – 11.02 m @ 2.93% Li2O and 317 ppm Ta2O5
-
MTC17-014 – 10.00 m @ 2.67% Li2O and 333 ppm Ta2O5 from 21 m depth, including a sample high of 5.92% Li2O at 27 m depth
-
MTC17-040 – 5.00 m @ 2.56% Li2O and 92 ppm Ta2O5
The mineralised pegmatite body is open in all directions with a total defined strike length of the host pegmatite body of ~1.2 km. In addition to the encouraging lithium grades intersected near surface, significant tantalum mineralisation continued to be intersected. Drill hole MTC17-010 returned 444 ppm Ta2O5 over 34 m including a peak sample assay of 970 ppm Ta2O5. The zonation of the lithium and tantalum within the mineralised body at Cancet is not yet well-understood, with geological modelling ongoing to further define the relationship.
A LIDAR and orthophoto survey was also recently completed over the Property. The survey provided high-accuracy topographic control to assist with geologic and resource modelling, as well as support regional prospecting work and the Phase II drill program planned for next quarter.

– Advanced HLS Metallurgical Test work Drill Core Samples
To better define the metallurgical and mineralogical characteristics of the pegmatite at Cancet, and to further the knowledge of the potential processing routes of the spodumene bearing pegmatite, beyond the results of the outcrop metallurgical test work program, the Company undertook a subsequent study based on drill core from representative sites.
Highlights include:
-
Heavy Liquid Separation (HLS) tests on composites crushed to 10mm and 5.6mm showed that Dense Media Separation (DMS) at SG 2.8 could recover 89% to 91% of the lithium at a grade of >6.4% Li2O in 19% of the DMS mass or 16.6% of the overall feed mass.
-
These results show a very high recovery at a coarse crush size is achievable.
-
Simple processing could mean significantly lower CAPEX and OPEX against peers as well as shorter commissioning time
-
Coarse grain premium concentrate – preferred by offtake partners
-
A High Grade Composite ( 2.35% Li2O ) produced a concentrate grade of 6.41% Li2O from 10mm crush indicating simple low cost DMS gravity separation at SG 2.8 will recover 97% of the lithium in 35% of the DMS mass
-
A Mid Grade Composite ( 1.54% Li2O ) produced a concentrate grade of 6.12% Li2O from 10mm crush indicating DMS gravity separation at SG 2.8 will recover 95% of the lithium in 24% of the DMS mass
-
The Low Grade Composite ( 1.06% Li2O ) produced a concentrate grade of 5.90% Li2O from 10mm crush indicating DMS gravity separation at SG 2.8 will recover 92% of the lithium in 16% of the DMS mass
-
Cancet hosts a clean pegmatite with low iron oxide in assayed drill samples (0.5% to 0.8% Fe2O3) – producing a high purity coarse grain premium spodumene concentrate:
- Low to Moderate iron oxide content in concentrate < less than 1.5% Fe2O3, which will be lowered by magnetic separation.
-
Initial results suggest product suite will meet and exceed grade requirements for battery market
-
Cancet metallurgical test-work compares favourably against other advanced lithium projects
-
Final representative metallurgical testing results for composite split drill core will be available within the next three weeks and will underpin offtake and strategic partner discussions

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
During the year, a 100kg sample from the Cancet Lithium Project was subjected to metallurgical analysis to generate a representative profile. Testing was completed at NAGROM Laboratories in Perth under the supervision of Mr Noel O’Brien, Trinol Pty Ltd and Primero.
Samples were sourced from split drill core from the Phase I drilling campaign that was recently completed at Cancet. Hole selection was guided by the requirement to ensure that the metallurgical testing would provide a representative view of the deposit at Cancet.
The samples were sent directly to NAGROM, where metallurgical testing was carried out, which involved crushing to 10mm for analysis and density profiling by Heavy Liquid Separation (HLS) after screening fines at 1mm.
Using the batched samples, three different composites were created, being a High Grade ( HG ) feed, a Mid Grade ( MG ) feed and a Low Grade ( LG ) feed, to ensure that the metallurgical profiling presented a representative view of the deposit at Cancet.

Table 1: HLS beneficiation on -10+1mm (HG Composite), 2.35% Li2O head grade
Commentary
Using a 2.8 SG sink, a mass yield of 35.72% was obtained at a concentrate grade of 6.41% Li2O with an associated lithium deportment of 97.22% , which is well above the benchmark grade of 6% Li2O required to meet the battery market. This result was achieved at a crush size of 10mm from a sample with a head grade of 2.35% Li2O.
Also of significance is the results of the 2.8 SG floats which indicate that as much as 65% of the mass fed to the DMS only contains 2.8% of the lithium and could be sent directly to residue.

Also of significance is the results of the 2.8 SG floats which indicate that as much as 83% of the mass fed to the DMS only contains 7.9% of the lithium and could be sent directly to residue.
With such strong results achieved across each of the three composite samples, there is potential to adopt a simple processing strategy which could ultimately lead to a considerably lower CAPEX and lower OPEX compared to peer operations, for a comparable output.
Cancet Field Exploration Program
During the year, the Company completed a 10-day field mapping and sampling program, focused on the main drilling area, as a pre-cursor to the commencement of Phase II drilling. The field program was designed to follow up on the Phase I drill program that intersected significant shallow and high grade lithium and tantalum mineralisation over wide widths.
The Company is pleased to report the discovery of a large pegmatite outcrop located approximately 1 km east and along strike of the currently mapped and drilled mineralised pegmatite body.
This is a significant discovery due to the limited outcrop exposure at Cancet and demonstrates the strong potential for the mineralised strike to extend beyond that currently delineated, as well as for additional pegmatite to be present elsewhere in the area under cover of shallow overburden.
As part of the field program, the Company also completed approximately 60 km of ground magnetic surveying designed to assist with the ongoing definition of the pegmatite structure at Cancet.
The ground magnetic survey focused on the previously mapped and drilled pegmatite body at Cancet and its surroundings as a method of further defining the magnetic signature associated with the mineralisation, and then tracing it along strike and parallel to define additional targets.
The host rock of the pegmatite at Cancet has a strong magnetic signature, which allows the Company a cost effective and indirect way to readily identify targets for follow up exploration and drilling.

Figure 4 below illustrates the results of the ground magnetic survey.
==> picture [458 x 346] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 4: Ground magnetic survey with new pegmatite discovery at the Cancet Lithium Project
The ground magnetic survey identified a number of additional magnetic signatures, along strike in both directions as well as sub-parallel, that may be associated with pegmatite at Cancet. Drilling to date has defined a pegmatite strike of ~1.2 km. The completion of the recent magnetic survey indicates significant potential for major strike extensions in both directions, as well as along the sub-parallel signatures, which may host additional pegmatite bodies.
17
METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
These areas are high priority for drill testing and offer significant exploration upside for the project.

----- End of picture text -----
The next stages of exploration will target the delineation of this new pegmatite discovery and attempt to link it with the known mineralised body at Cancet. The numerous analogous magnetic signatures to the known mineralisation along strike and sub-parallel, coupled with the new pegmatite discovery ~1 km along strike, demonstrate the strong potential for significant tonnage expansion at Cancet.
Future drill campaigns will be designed to test these prospective targets and to link zones of mineralisation.
A soil geochemistry orientation survey was also completed across the main zone of mineralisation at Cancet with the objective of defining the mineralised signature. Results are pending, however, if successful, the Company intends to expand this survey over the entire drill area, as well as regionally, as it would provide for a cost effective and efficient method of peering through the overburden to identify potentially mineralised pegmatites for drill targeting.
Outcrop is rare at Cancet with a veil of sandy soil covering the area, obscuring much of the geology making indirect tools, such as ground magnetics and soil sampling, key to evaluation.
18
METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
A two-week Phase II diamond drill program of an initial 10 to 12 holes is planned to commence in September, and will target tonnage expansion in the down-dip / plunge extensions of the defined mineralisation, as well as strike extension and correlation with adjacent pegmatite structures.
Discussions with potential offtake partners and strategic investors is progressing with the Company engaged in a formal due diligence data room. Port infrastructure and associated transportation logistic studies are currently underway with the Company having identified a number of deep water port options along the St Lawrence River to complement a domestic offtake strategy.
This infrastructure is able to connect Cancet to the Atlantic Ocean, with the capacity to ship spodumene concentrate to destination ports around the world, including Europe, China, Japan and South Korea.
Commencement of Phase II Diamond Drilling Program
During the year, the Company commenced its Phase II diamond drilling campaign at the Cancet Lithium Project designed to test the strike and down-dip / plunge extensions of the spodumene bearing pegmatite, and delineate a maiden JORC resource.
Highlights include:
-
~1,500m diamond core drilling campaign has commenced at the 100%-owned Cancet Lithium Project where the Company has delineated ~1.2km of mineralised pegmatite strike starting at surface
-
Drilling campaign designed to extend strike, dip, and plunge continuity of pegmatite, as well as test newly discovered pegmatite outcrops ~1km east of the existing strike
-
Pool of 25 drill sites identified within the main zone after remodelling following recent field mapping and magnetic survey, with actual sites drilled and order of drilling subject to iterative drill results
-
Results from drill program will underpin maiden resource estimation and delivery of a scoping study and support ongoing strategic and end-user discussions
-
Cancet boasts excellent infrastructure including major highway and high voltage power in close proximity
Diamond drilling has commenced at the Company’s 100%-owned Cancet Lithium Project which hosts high grade lithium within spodumene bearing pegmatites. The diamond core drilling program is designed to extend the strike, dip, and plunge continuity of the highly mineralised pegmatite deposit that outcrops at surface, as well as test the mineralisation and continuity of the recently discovered pegmatite outcrop, which is located approximately 1km to the east, along strike.
In conjunction with Dahrouge Geological Consultants, the Company has selected fifty (25) individual drill sites from which the drilling campaign will target extensions of the known mineralisation. The program is designed to build on the geological knowledge acquired through the Phase 1 drilling program at Cancet (which included 40 diamond core holes for approximately 4,350 m) which was completed earlier this year as well as the recent detailed field mapping program and magnetic survey program.
The Company will update stakeholders with respect to both visual estimates of spodumene content when drill core is produced (a strong leading indicator of lithium content) and secondly when Li2O results are received following ultimate core analysis and laboratory assay.

New Pegmatite Outcrop
In addition to the above, the Company will be testing a new pegmatite outcrop located approximately 1km east of the main drill zone, along strike. If that drilling is successful, there is also potential for significant linking of strike and a potential order of magnitude change in the project metrics, beyond existing plans for down-dip drilling.
==> picture [420 x 324] intentionally omitted <==
The new pegmatite outcrop, which has been discovered approximately 1km east of the core drill zone, along strike, is a significant outcrop discovery for the Company, and is shown below. Due to the limited outcropping at Cancet, discoveries such as this demonstrate the continuity of the significant pegmatite body beyond the current mineralised strike of ~1.2km.

Bay Lake Cobalt Project – Field Exploration Program
During the year, the Company completed a field exploration program at the Bay Lake Cobalt Project, located in Ontario (Canada) as a pre-cursor to maiden drilling campaign.
Highlights include:
-
Sampling program at Bay Lake confirms the presence of high grade cobalt mineralisation at surface across the prospective geological trend at the contact of the Nipissing Diabase
-
1.17% Co and 7.7g/t Ag recovered from a surface “dump” pile at the Van Chester (Last Chance) Prospect
-
0.40% Co recovered at the historic Price Prospect exploration pit where historic sampling of a surface “dump” pile returned 2.14% Co, 0.11% Cu, 0.48 g/t Au and 1,740 g/t Ag ( refer to ASX announcement dated 16 May 2017 and titled "MetalsTech Expands High Grade Bay Lake Cobalt Project” )
-
0.61% Co , 0.34% Co and 0.15% Co were recovered surrounding the historic Bay Lake exploration shaft where in-vein sampling of the cobaltite vein below ground assayed 15.36% Co ( refer to ASX announcement dated 16 March 2017 and titled “MetalsTech to Acquire Two High Grade Cobalt Projects” )
-
3.45g/t Au and 44.5g/t Ag also recovered around the Bay Lake exploration shaft and pit suggesting potential for Co-Ag-Au in the area
-
A previously un-reported zone of mineralisation at a historic pit located approximately 900m NE of the Bay Lake Prospect exploration shaft has assayed 0.30% Co and 16.4g/t Ag
-
Re-sampling of the Bay Lake Prospect exploration shaft below ground was not possible due to water in-fill which prevented access
-
Evaluation and interpretation of recent MAG and TDEM survey as well as a follow up field program is planned prior to commencement of maiden drilling
The Bay Lake High Grade Cobalt Project is comprised of 41 contiguous mineral claims covering an area of 3,200 hectares, and is 100% owned by MetalsTech. Bay Lake is located 10km SSW of the Historic Cobalt Mining Camp in the Cobalt Township on the eastern shore of Bay Lake in Coleman Township, Ontario, Canada.
27
METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
The map below illustrates the location of the new mineral claims, relative to the Company’s existing Bay Lake mineral claims, relevant to the prospective cobalt rich trends:
==> picture [464 x 463] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 11: Bay Lake High Grade Cobalt Project Location Map
The mineral claims are located approximately 5km SSW of Cobalt One Limited (ASX: CO1), the owner of the Cobalt Camp Project where historical assays have reported cobalt grades up to 12.3% Co (range 0.42% Co to 12.3% Co - average of 5.84% Co) along strike in the same geological structure (refer to ASX announcement dated 28 November 2016 titled “ High Grade Cobalt Project Acquisition, Canada ”).
Historic in-vein sampling of the calcite veins at the Bay Lake Prospect have assayed15.36% Co in cobalt-rich veins. Historic sampling from 1988 of surface “dump” material at the Price Prospect assayed 2.14% Co, 0.11% Cu, 0.48 g/t Au and 1,740 g/t Ag. Drilling in this area from the 1950’s returned 1.5 m grading 7.95% Cu and

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
1.96 oz/ton Ag, with a 50-ton bulk sample grading 16% Cu and 12 oz/ton Ag collected from the same area in 1916. The Property has seen little exploration since the late 1980s.
The recently acquired Van Chester Cobalt Project includes mineral claims that are similarly host to historic exploration shafts and pits, including the Van Chester (Last Chance) Prospect where historic sampling of surface “dump” material assayed 0.38% Co (refer to ASX announcement dated 4 August 2017 and titled " MTC Acquires Van Chester and West Cobalt Projects, Ontario ”).
Recently, an airborne geophysical program consisting of MAG and TDEM has been completed at Bay Lake. Preliminary results from the MAG survey strongly illustrates the prospective trend that runs across the project in a NE-SW direction with a second regional trend operating in a NW direction off the main zone. The prospective trend is associated with the contact of the Nipissing Diabase where calcite veins have formed as an intrusive in the surrounding formations. Data from the MAG and TDEM surveys are still being analysed and interpretation is continuing with results expected in the next 10 days.
Field Exploration Program
The Company commenced the field exploration program at the end of June 2017. Its primary objective was to confirm the historic high-grade silver-cobalt mineralisation documented on the property from the existing shafts and pits dating from the early 1900s. In addition, reconnaissance mapping and sampling was completed along several prospective trends within the property as a precursor to maiden diamond drilling.
The images below show cobalt bloom (also known as Erythrite) and a historical exploration shaft which were identified in the area and is typical of the Bay Lake area:

The trenches located were typically 5m long, 2m wide, and 1-2m deep with some soil cover and water infill. The pits and shafts located were typically square or rectangular in shape, commonly 3 x 5 m with an indeterminate depth due to water infill. Some shafts were reinforced with wooden beams / structures.

A total of 64 rock samples (grab) were collected, targeting the calcite-sulphide veins within the Nipissing Diabase. Rock samples were collected from either the associated adjacent muck/dump piles or the structure walls. A soil sample grid was also completed in the Bay Lake Prospect area, with a total of 109 samples collected.
Bay Lake Prospect
A total of 12 historical structures (pit/shaft) were located and sampled in the area of the Bay Lake Showing, with a total of 27 rock samples collected (122733-54, 122863-98) from the associated muck piles. Several of the samples displayed cobalt bloom.
Pit/shaft sizes ranged from approximately 2 x 2m to 7 x 5m, with depth indeterminate due to water infill. Overall, the field crew observed that the historic work at the Bay Lake Prospect targeted the upper contact of the Nipissing Diabase as the pits/trenches were oriented roughly parallel to the contact (030[0] ).
A soil sampling grid was also completed in the Bay Lake Prospect area with the objective of identifying the presence of anomalous cobalt that may be associated with the upper and lower contacts of the Nipissing Diabase. The soil grid consisted of eight grid lines of ~525 m in length, with 50m line spacing and 25m station spacing.
The results from the soil sampling program identified that the south-eastern contact of the Nipissing Diabase around the Bay Lake Prospect is the most prospective. The Company is planning on undertaking additional mapping and soil sampling along this contact where the strongest anomalous samples have been received.

Price Prospect
A total of 5 historical structures (pit/shaft) were located in the area of the Price Prospect, with a total of 5 rock samples collected (122762-66) from the associated muck piles. Several of the samples displayed cobalt bloom and copper staining.
The primary historic Price shaft was also located and sampled. The mine shaft had dimensions of approximately 4 x 5m, with depth indeterminate due to water in-fill. The Price Prospect, as well as several adjacent pits, were also sampled during the program. One of the pits was at least 15m deep, and the trenches at an orientation of between 030[0] and 045[0] .

A total of 7 samples were collected (122767-73) from the Jumbo Point Mine shaft and the surrounding area, of which, 2 samples were collected from the mine shaft muck pile, and 1 sample collected from a pit muck pile ~15m to the northwest. The remainder of the samples were collected from outcrops that showed signs of sulphide mineralisation. The Jumbo Point Prospect shaft was roughly 3 x 5m, with an indeterminate depth due to water infill.
Van Chester (Last Chance) Prospect
A total of 4 samples (122779-82) were collected from muck piles at the Van Chester (Last Chance) Prospect, located just south of Highway 11, all of which displayed cobalt bloom. The major pit at the Van Chester (Last Chance) Prospect was covered over by a large concrete slab.

Approximately 900m northeast of the Bay Lake Prospect, three historic pits were located and sampled. One muck pile had samples with cobalt bloom (samples 122755-56).
In the southeast portion of the prospective area, 5 historic pits/trenches were sampled (samples 122726-27,
122731-32, 122774-76) in addition to some of the surrounding outcrops. On the eastern side of the Property, a total of 3 historic pits, ranging in size from 5 x 5m to 3 x 2m, were located and sampled (samples 122783-85).
The north-central areas of the property were also visited to locate historic pits/trenches. The field crew was unable to locate two historic structures at the north end of the property closest to the Portage Bay Camp, due to ground cover.
Future field exploration programs will allocate additional time to this area, which is located along the prospective trend, and further investigation is warranted.
Approximately 1km SW of this area, 3 samples were collected from a pit, trench, and shaft. The shaft (6 x 3m with depth indeterminate due to water infill) and the trench are located approximately 30m off the property, and were sampled for orientation purposes to map the direction of the mineralised calcite veins.

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
Results and Discussion
The sampling program at Bay Lake has confirmed the presence of strong cobalt mineralisation on surface in calcite veins across the prospective geological trend at the contact of the Nipissing Diabase. Samples were collected from historic pits, trenches, shafts, muck/dump piles, and outcrop exposures, with most of the samples exhibiting visual mineralisation, known as “cobalt bloom”.
A Cobalt grade of 1.17% Co and 7.7g/t Ag was recovered from a surface “dump” pile at the newly acquired Van Chester (Last Chance) Prospect. These results are better than historic sampling suggests, verifying the high prospectivity of this historic exploration shaft and surrounding area. The Company will focus its future efforts including drilling on this high grade cobalt mineralised area.
A grab sample taken from an area adjacent to the historic Price Prospect exploration pit returned a cobalt assay grade of 0.40% Co , which has validated the prospectivity of this area where historic sampling of a surface “dump” pile returned a cobalt assay grade of 2.14% Co . The differential in the assay grade is not unexpected given the weathering and oxidisation profile of the surface dump/muck pile. The Company considers this result to be an understatement of true potential and future exploration including drilling will be completed at this area.
Surface sampling adjacent to the historic Bay Lake exploration shaft returned cobalt assay grades of 0.15% Co, 0.34% Co and 0.61% Co . In-vein sampling of the cobaltite vein within the Bay Lake exploration shaft where historic assay results were 15.36% Co was not possible due to water infill in the historic shaft. The presence of cobalt mineralisation at surface combined with the historic high grade in-vein samples suggest that disseminated and vein-hosted mineralisation is present. Another surface sample taken at the historic Bay Lake exploration shaft returned a gold grade of 3.45g/t Au suggesting that the mineralisation in the area has the potential to host Co-Ag-Au.
Another sample taken from the historic Bay Lake pit returned a silver assay grade of 44.5g/t Ag. Elevated silver mineralisation is strongly correlated with cobalt mineralisation within the Cobalt Embayment zones, so this result is not unexpected and confirms the origins of the Bay Lake project, where historic miners would use the cobalt mineralisation as a tracer mineral to the identification of high grade silver mineralisation.
A previously un-documented zone of mineralisation approximately 900m NE of the Bay Lake Prospect has been discovered along the Nipissing Diabase returning assay results of 0.30% Co and 16.4g/t Ag. This area is at the intersection of the two main regional prospective geological trends and his seen little historic exploration. The Company plans to undertake some additional field mapping of this new area before undertaking the first phase of drilling.
Overall the field exploration program has been a tremendous success, having confirmed the presence of high grade cobalt mineralisation as well as the distinct correlation between silver mineralisation and cobalt mineralisation. The next stage of exploration will consist of additional field sampling, channel sampling, stripping / trenching and additional mapping across the high priority areas that have been identified together with those areas that were not traversed.
Drill program design, including the number of holes and the number of drill targets, for the maiden drilling campaign at Bay Lake is being finalised. At this stage, dependent on the receipt of the necessary permits, the Company plans to commence drilling during September/October, which will then continue in winter when access is easiest.

Geology and Exploration Strategy
Bay Lake hosts principal ore veins, cross-veins, masses of mineralised Keewatin interflow rocks, and disseminated minerals in the Gowganda Formation, Coleman Member. Only the principal ore veins contain silver ore and they occur primarily in the Coleman Member. The veins also contain cobalt indicator minerals such as arsenides and native silver (principal metal veins). The arsenides, including nickel, cobalt, and iron varieties, occur as massive lenses and disseminated grains in the carbonate veins. Some massive lenses extend across the entire widths of the veins, others present as irregular bodies in the centres of the veins, and still others occur at the edges of the veins.
The distribution of cobalt indicator minerals from top to bottom of the veins are rich in the following elements (i) nickel, (ii) cobalt and (iii) iron. The veins can be classified as Ni-As, Ni-Co-As, Co-Fe-As and Fe-As. Silver grades exhibit a very different zonation implying that previous production has excluded multiple areas of cobalt mineralisation.
==> picture [307 x 424] intentionally omitted <==
-
Implications for Cobalt Targets • Cobalt and silver mineralisation occurs in calcite veins in close association
-
• Cobalt indicator minerals are not correlated to silver grades – high grade zones cross cut indicator mineral zones
-
• Historical production targeting silver didn’t focus on cobalt mineralisation – low grade silver zones likely to have Co-mineralisation in-situ
-
• Re-entry of the mine workings considered possible with establishment of drill platforms to follow rehabilitation
-
• Drill out of interpreted cobalt rich zones to follow

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
Summary
Historical reports indicate substantial cobalt grades in silver ore however the project’s cobalt potential remains untested – cobalt was used as a tracer for silver mineralisation but not targeted in its own right.
The Bay Lake Project, including the Van Chester (Last Chance) Prospect, the West Cobalt Shaft, the Price Prospect, the Bay Lake Prospect and the Jumbo Point Prospect, have been exposed to historic existing underground mine workings related to past operations. The Company believes re-entry following rehabilitation of existing adits will open up a significant amount of strike length of known structures for modern cobalt focused exploration and production. In the project area, several Calcite veins occur within the lowest part of a Nipissing diabase sill near the contact with arkoses of the Lorrain Formation.
Significant changes in state of affairs
Other than those disclosed in this financial report, there were no significant changes in the Company's state of affairs that occurred during the financial period.
On 12 July 2017, the Company announced that it had raised $1 million (before costs) at an issue price of A$0.185 per ordinary share, via the issue of 5,405,405 fully paid ordinary shares. The Placement represented minimal dilution to the previous capital structure (~7%) and new funds allowed the Company to accelerate development of its Bay Lake High Grade Cobalt Project and the Cancet Lithium Project.
Following completion of the Placement and allotment of the new fully paid ordinary shares, the Company had 81,653,405 fully paid ordinary shares on issue.
The Placement was strongly subscribed by new institutional and sophisticated investors and was managed by Sanlam Private Wealth Pty Ltd as Lead Bookrunner for the Placement, with the involvement of Bell Potter, Cygnet Capital, Ord Minnett and Shaw and Partners Limited.
Strong participation from institutional investors is a significant validation of the development that has been achieved to date at the Company’s high grade cobalt and lithium projects.
On 4 August 2017, the Company announced that it had acquired the Van Chester and West Cobalt projects adjacent to the Bay Lake Cobalt Project area. This acquisition allowed the Company to continue the consolidation of this highly prospective exploration area.

METALSTECH LIMITED DIRECTOR’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
On 12 September 2017, the Company announced that it is considering the spin out of the Bay Lake Cobalt Project. The structure, pricing, methodology and timing are still being negotiated. The Company continues to keep all options open. The rationale behind the potential spin out is to create a separate entity with its own capital allocation strategy and management team with a mandate to focus on cobalt, being a pure play strategy. This will also allow MetalsTech to focus exclusively on its lithium projects portfolio, with the flagship Cancet Lithium Project prioritised.
Other than the above, there have been no other matters or circumstances which have arisen since 30 June 2017 that have significantly affected or may significantly affect:
-
(a) the operations, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2017, of the company, or
-
(b) the results of those operations, or
-
(c) the state of affairs, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2017, of the company.

METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY
MetalsTech Limited (the “Company”) is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange Limited (“ASX”). The addresses of its registered office and principal place of business are disclosed in the Corporate Directory at the beginning of the Annual Report.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are for the year ended 30 June 2017.
The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 29 September 2017.
The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ Report.
NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
a) Basis of preparation of the financial report
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on the date the directors’ report and declaration was signed. MetalsTech Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.
Historical Cost Convention
The financial report has been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by revaluations to fair value for certain classes of assets as described in the accounting policies.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in note 3.
54
METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
a) Basis of preparation of the financial report (continued)
Comparative information
This report presents the financial information for the full financial year ended 30 June 2017. The comparative period is from 25 May 2016 to 30 June 2016. The Company was incorporated on the 25 May 2016.
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of the company is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the entity’s functional currency.
b) Going concern
For the period ended 30 June 2017 the Group has incurred a net loss of AUD$1,691,564 (2016: AUD$680,344), experienced net cash outflows from operations of AUD$1,109,287 (2016: AUD$12,198) and net cash outflows from investing activities of AUD$2,630,774 (2016: AUD$184,134). As at 30 June 2017 the cash balance is $779,667 (2016: $293,416).
The Directors have reviewed the cash flow requirements in the next 12 months and recognise that the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on securing additional funding through equity to continue to fund its exploration activities.
These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast a significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Directors believe there are sufficient funds to meet the Group’s working capital requirements as at the date of this report.
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Group is a going concern, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity, realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business for the following reasons:
-
On 12 July 2017, the Company announced that it had raised $1 million (before costs) at an issue price of A$0.185 per ordinary share, via the issue of 5,405,405 fully paid ordinary shares;
-
The Group has a history of successfully raising capital;
-
The Directors believe that there is sufficient cash available for the Group to continue operating until it can raise sufficient further capital to fund its ongoing activities;
-
The fact that future exploration and evaluation expenditures are generally discretionary in nature and may be slowed or suspended as part of the management of the Group's working capital and other forecast commitments.
Should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements and that the financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or liabilities that might be necessary should the company not continue as a going concern.
55
METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
c) New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted The company has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
Any significant impact on the accounting policies of the company from the adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations are disclosed below. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the company.
d) New standards and interpretation not yet adopted
A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 July 2017 and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Those which may be relevant to the Group are set out below. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments
AASB 9, published in July 2014, replaces the existing guidance in AASB 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement . AASB 9 includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, a new expected credit loss model for calculating impairment on financial assets, and the new general hedge accounting requirements. It also carries forward the guidance on recognition and de-recognition of financial instruments from AASB 39.
AASB 9 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted.
The Group is assessing the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements resulting from the application of AASB 9. The revisions to the classification and measurement requirements and hedging changes are not currently expected to have a significant impact to the Group. Changes in relation to the expected credit loss model for calculating impairment on financial assets are not expected to have a material impact based on the short-term nature of the Group’ s assets.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
AASB 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including AASB 18 Revenue , AASB 11 Construction Contracts and IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes .
AASB 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted.
The Group is assessing the potential impact on of this standard on its consolidated financial statements resulting from the application of AASB 15. The Group does not currently have any revenue so there will not be a material impact.
56
METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
e) New standards and interpretation not yet adopted (continued)
AASB 16 Leases
The key feature of AASB 16 for (lease accounting) are as follows:
-
Lessees are required to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12
-
months, unless the underlying asset is of low value.
-
A lessee measures right-of-use asset similarly to other non-financial assets and lease liabilities similar
-
to other financial liabilities.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. The measurement includes non-cancellable lease payments (including inflation-lined payments), and also includes payments to be made in optional periods if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease.
AASB 16 contains disclosure requirements for lessees and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on 1 January 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Group is assessing the potential impact on of this standard on its consolidated financial statements resulting from the application of AASB 16, which has not yet been finalised.
f) Income tax
The charge for current income tax expenses is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the 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 equity.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary difference can be utilised. The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be released in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the company will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.
g) 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 they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
57
METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
g) Exploration and evaluation expenditure (continued)
When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.
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.
Costs incurred on identifiable areas of interest where the Company has not been granted rights to tenure as at reporting date are capitalised when the Company are confident that it is probable the Company will be granted rights in the near future. If the Company is subsequently not granted rights to tenure, costs capitalised to affected areas of interest are written off in the profit and loss in the year in which this decision is known.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment if sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability or facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure is tested for impairment when any of the following facts and circumstances exist:
-
The term of exploration licence in the specific area of interest has expired during the reporting period or will expire in the near future, and is not expected to be renewed;
-
Substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area are not budgeted nor planned;
-
Exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral resources and the decision was made to discontinue such activities in the specified area; or
-
Sufficient data exist to indicate that, although a development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale.
Where a potential impairment is indicated, an assessment is performed for each area of interest. The Group performs impairment testing in accordance with AASB 136.
h) Principles of consolidation
Subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of MetalsTech Ltd (the “Company” or “Parent Entity”) as at 30 June 2017 and the results of its subsidiaries for the year. MetalsTech Ltd and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Group or the consolidated entity.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the group has control. The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group.
58
METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(i) Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred.
i) Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors.
j) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position.
k) Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables represent the liabilities at the end of the reporting period for goods and services received by the company that remain unpaid.
Trade payables are recognised at their transaction price. Trade payables are obligations on the basis of normal credit terms.
l) Issued Capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
m) Share-based payments
The company provides benefits to employees (including directors) of the company in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (‘equity-settled transactions’). The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted.
The fair value is determined using an appropriate option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of shares of MetalsTech Limited (‘market conditions’). (Refer Note 20 for further details)
n) Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
o) Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the Statement of Financial Position date are translated to Australian dollars at the foreign exchange rate ruling at that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are stated at fair value are translated to Australian dollars at foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates the fair value was determined.
p) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not shown in the accounts at a value in excess of the recoverable amount of the asset.
Depreciation on assets is calculated using the diminishing value method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, as follows:
Office equipment 10-40%
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the net carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
q) Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are recorded at amounts due less any allowance for doubtful debts. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. They are presented as current assets unless collection is not expected for more than 12 months after the reporting date.
r) Other financial assets
The Group classifies its investments in the following categories: loans and receivables. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and re-evaluates this designation at each reporting date.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the Group provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivable. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the Statement of Financial Position date which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in receivables in the Statement of Financial Position. Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost, net of any impairment losses.

NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
s) Earnings per share
(i) Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for the bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.
(ii) Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
t) Goods and Services Tax
Revenue, 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 taxation authority. 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 statement of financial position. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.
u) Financial Liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities measured at amortised cost. Financial liabilities in the former category include contingent consideration payable on business combinations, financial liabilities in the latter category include trade payables.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
Fair value is determined based on the value of the entity’s equity instruments when the related business combination takes place.
Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
61
METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 2: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
v) Financial Liabilities (continued)
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured, at each reporting date, at the fair value of the amount estimated to settle the liability. The increase or decrease in the value of the liability, other than movements in the value of the liability which arise through part settlement of the liability is recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
Trade and other payables are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the entity. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 60 days.
w) Fair value measurement
When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market.
Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
NOTE 3: ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT OPERATIVE AT 30 JUNE 2017
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the company for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2017. The company has not yet assessed the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations.
NOTE 4: CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial period are discussed below.
62
METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 4: CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (continued)
Provision for impairment of receivables
The provision for impairment of receivables assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, the aging of receivables historical collection rates and specific knowledge of the individual debtors financial position.
Share-based payments
The valuation of share-based payment transactions is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using valuation methods including the Black Scholes valuation model and the Binomial – barrier up and in model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted.
The Group measures the cost of equity settled transactions with directors by reference to the fair value of equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Management have assessed that the achievement of the non-market performance conditions attached to the performance shares are ‘more likely than not’. 100% of the calculated fair value has therefore been determined by management to be the fair value of the Performance Shares and the expense to be recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the current year.
Recoverability of deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation costs are carried forward where right of tenure of the area of interest is current. These costs are carried forward in respect of an area that has not at balance date reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. The Board and Management have assessed the carrying value of the Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure to be impaired. Refer to the accounting policy stated in note 2(g) and to note 12 for movements in the exploration and evaluation expenditure balance.
Asset acquisition not constituting a business
When an asset acquisition does not constitute a business combination, the assets and liabilities are assigned a carrying amount based on their relative fair values in an asset purchase transaction and no deferred tax will arise in relation to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities as the initial recognition exemption for deferred tax under AASB 112 applies. No goodwill will arise on the acquisition and transaction costs of the acquisition will be included in the capitalised cost of the asset.
In determining when an acquisition is determined to be an asset acquisition and not a business, significant judgement is required to assess whether the assets acquired constitute a business in accordance with AASB 3. Under AASB 3 a business is an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted or managed for the purpose of providing a return, and consists of inputs and processes, which when applied to those inputs has the ability to create outputs.
The Directors determined that the acquisition of LiGeneration Limited (“LiGeneration”) was an asset acquisition. During the financial year 3,600,000 shares were issued to the shareholders of LiGeneration under a Scrip for Scrip offer that constitutes a share based payment. The fair value of the shares issued was determined by reference to the share price of the most recent capital raising price on grant date, based on last capital raising price on 10 October 2016 of $0.10 per share.
63
METALSTECH LIMITED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017
NOTE 4: CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (continued)
Fair value measurement hierarchy
The Group is required to classify all assets and liabilities, measured at fair value, using a three level hierarchy, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement, being: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Considerable judgement is required to determine what is significant to fair value and therefore which category the asset or liability is placed in can be subjective.
The fair value of assets and liabilities classified as level 3 is determined by the use of valuation models. These include discounted cash flow analysis or the use of observable inputs that require significant adjustments based on unobservable inputs.
NOTE 5: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The Group uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. The Board of Directors co-ordinate domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports which analyse exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. The Group does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.
The Group holds the following financial instruments:
| Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Financial liabilities |

NOTE 5: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
(a) Market risk
(i) Foreign currency risk
Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and cash flow forecasting. The Group manages foreign exchange risk by monitoring forecast cash flows in currencies other than the Australian dollar.
The Group has minimal exposure to foreign currency risk at the end of the year.
(ii) Price risk
The Group does not hold investments and therefore is not exposed to equity securities price risk.
(iii) Interest rate risk
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk and the effective weighted average interest rate for classes of financial assets and liabilities is set out below:
| 30-Jun-17 | 30-Jun-17 | 30-Jun-16 | 30-Jun-16 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weighted average interest rate |
$ | Weighted average interest rate |
$ | |
| Financial assets | ||||
| Cash & cash equivalents | 0.985% | 779,667 | 0.00% | 293,416 |
The Group does not have significant interest-bearing assets and percentage changes in interest rates would not have a material impact on the results. Group sensitivity to movement is not material.
(b) Credit risk
The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk. The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings. The Group does not hold any collateral. The Group does not hold any collateral.

NOTE 5: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
(c) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash to meet commitments as and when they fall due. The Group has no long term or short term debt and its risk with regard to liquidity relates to its ability to maintain its current operations.

As a result no reconciliation is required because the information as presented is what is used by the Board to make strategic decisions.
Revenue by geographical region
The Company has not generated revenue from operations, other than interest income derived from deposits held at call with banks in Australia.
Assets by geographical region
The Company owns tenements in the geographical location of Quebec, Canada.

Exploration costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development or sale of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
The value of the deferred consideration is the board’s assessment of the value of contracted future payments issued under the agreement for the acquisition licence of Terre des Montagnes Lithium Project. On initial recognition fair value is based on assumptions to present value the future payments based on a discount rate of 12%. The principal payments are contractually required in Canadian dollars and have been converted to Australian dollars. Subsequently the liability is carried at amortised cost.

| 30-Jun-17 | 30-Jun-16 | |
|---|---|---|
| $ | $ | |
| Loss attributable to ordinary shareholders | (1,691,564) | (680,344) |
| Weighted average number of ordinary shares | 55,194,836 | 34,612,432 |
| Basic loss per share (cents per share) | (3.0) | (2.0) |
Diluted loss per share
Potential ordinary shares are not considered dilutive, thus diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share.

NOTE 23: ASSET ACQUISITION
Asset Acquisition
MetalsTech acquired the assets of LiGeneration Limited (“LiGeneration”) by way of a Scrip for Scrip offer. Equity consideration of 3,600,000 shares was issued on 18 November 2016 at fair value based on the most recent capital-raising share price of $0.10 per share, the value of the LiGeneration was unable to be measured reliably and therefore the value of the projects were measured by reference to the fair value of the shares issued.
The transaction is not a business combination as the assets acquired did not meet the definition of a business as defined in the Australian Accounting Standards as at the date of acquisition, no economic resource could be established. The acquisition of the net assets meets the definition of, and has been accounted for, as an asset acquisition.

NOTE 24: Contingent Liabilities
Contingent Cash Consideration
Pursuant to the various licence acquisition agreements, MetalsTech is required to undertake deferred cash consideration payments which, at the discretion of MetalsTech, may be paid in Shares at the 10-day VWAP, with such Shares then subject to 12 months’ escrow. These payments range in value from $75,000 to $325,000 and are contingent upon discovering JORC reserves of the relevant areas of interest.
Contingent Consideration - Shares and Options
Pursuant to the Letter Agreement dated 11 October 2016 between MetalsTech and Lithium Australia NL, MetalsTech has agreed to issue Shares and unlisted Options, subject to the satisfaction of key performance milestones. The issue of any of these Shares and Options in the future may require Shareholder approval.
Other contingencies
Pursuant to licence acquisition agreements, the company has agreed to net smelter royalties (‘NSR’) to the vendors which will only be payable from future production. Given the early stage of exploration regarding these relevant areas of interest, the Directors consider these contingent payments to be remote and accordingly have not disclosed further details.

NOTE 26: EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO REPORTING DATE
On 12 July 2017, the Company announced that it had raised $1 million (before costs) at an issue price of A$0.185 per ordinary share, via the issue of 5,405,405 fully paid ordinary shares. The Placement represented minimal dilution to the previous capital structure (~7%) and new funds allowed the Company to accelerate development of its Bay Lake High Grade Cobalt Project and the Cancet Lithium Project.
Following completion of the Placement and allotment of the new fully paid ordinary shares, the Company had 81,653,405 fully paid ordinary shares on issue.
The Placement was strongly subscribed by new institutional and sophisticated investors and was managed by Sanlam Private Wealth Pty Ltd as Lead Bookrunner for the Placement, with the involvement of Bell Potter, Cygnet Capital, Ord Minnett and Shaw and Partners Limited.
Strong participation from institutional investors is a significant validation of the development that has been achieved to date at the Company’s high grade cobalt and lithium projects.
On 12 September 2017, the Company announced that it is considering the spin out of the Bay Lake Cobalt Project. The structure, pricing, methodology and timing are still being negotiated. The Company continues to keep all options open. The rationale behind the potential spin out is to create a separate entity with its own capital allocation strategy and management team with a mandate to focus on cobalt, being a pure play strategy. This will also allow MetalsTech to focus exclusively on its lithium projects portfolio, with the flagship Cancet Lithium Project prioritised.
Other than the above, there have been no other matters or circumstances which have arisen since 30 June 2017 that have significantly affected or may significantly affect:
-
(a) the operations, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2017, of the company, or
-
(b) the results of those operations, or
-
(c) the state of affairs, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2017, of the company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of MetalsTech Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of MetalsTech Limited and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
(ii) Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for 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 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 confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 2(b) in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. 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.
BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 79 112 284 787 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
