DIRECTORS

The following persons were directors of Meteoric Resources NL (“ Meteoric ”) during the full halfyear and up to the date of this report:

  • Mr Neville Bassett Mr Graeme Clatworthy

  • Mr George Sakalidis

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The total loss from continuing operations for the half-year ended 31 December 2016 was $174,095 (2015: $480,624).

The Company’s activities during the six-month period are summarised in this report which unless otherwise stated, should be read as if dated 31 December 2016.

Subsequent Events

Since the end of the reporting period, the Company has issued 50 million fully paid ordinary shares at $0.0091 each raising a total of $455,000. These shares were issued to “sophisticated investors” as defined by the Corporations Act pursuant to a members’ resolution passed at the Company’s 2016 Annual General Meeting held on 18 November 2016.

PROJECT REPORT

WEBB (Meteoric 19% and 16% of E80/4506 - diluting)

During the first half of 2016/2017 financial year the joint venture partners that 42 untested kimberlite targets within the broad microdiamond anomaly are prioritized for future drill testing. To date, the JV has identified 51 kimberlites by the drilling of 64 kimberlite targets from the field of 280 kimberlite targets. This represents 23% of the targets tested to date.

During the first half, ground penetrating radar geophysical surveys was undertaken on selected kimberlite targets within the project area by Lozar Radar Australia. These trial surveys were focussed on both drilled and untested kimberlite targets within and in close proximity to the broad microdiamond anomaly (Figure 1). Lozar Radar is a ground scanning radar technology with depth penetration of up to 200m and with the capability of mapping geological features such as faults and lithology boundaries. This work was aimed at testing the effectiveness of this relatively new geophysical technique in remodelling the size, shape and depth extent of the Webb kimberlite targets. The results of this test work are being assessed.

Figure 1 . Webb Diamond Joint Venture- Location map of Micro Diamonds Recovered

Kimberlite targets have been prioritized for drill testing with the focus being on the interpreted larger near- surface bodies associated with the large microdiamond anomaly in the northern portion of the Webb kimberlite field. Selected kimberlite targets in other parts of the kimberlite field, based on the size and intensity of their magnetic signatures, have also being targeted.

It is anticipated that this work will be undertaken in the 2017 field season.

Competent Person Statement

The information in this report that relates to Exploration Results is based on information compiled or reviewed by Tom Reddicliffe BSc (Hons), MSc., who is a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Tom Reddicliffe is a self-employed consultant to the Meteoric Resources NL - GeoCrystal Limited joint venture and a director of GeoCrystal Limited. Tom Reddicliffe has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 edition of the 'Australasian Code of Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves'. Tom Reddicliffe consents to the inclusion in this report of his information in the form and context in which it appears.

WARREGO NORTH (Meteoric 100%, subject to farmout and JV)

Chalice Gold Mines Ltd (“CGM”). CGM may earn up to a 70% interest in the Warrego North project by expenditure of $800,000 within five years.

The Warrego North Project is a farm-in and joint venture with Meteoric Resources Limited (ASX: MEI) in the Tennant Creek Mineral Field in the Northern Territory of Australia.

During the Quarter, Chalice obtained all necessary approvals for proposed drilling activities at the Warrego North Project late in the quarter and drilling is now anticipated to commence as soon as possible at the end of the northern Australian wet season (March Quarter), weather permitting. Chalice plans to undertake an initial 2-hole (800m) Reverse Circulation/diamond drilling program to test the Parakeet targets at depth (~300m depth) as shown in Figure 2. Drilling is targeted to test magnetic and gravity inversion models where these are interpreted to intersect with the apparent trend of mineralisation as defined from previous intersections of low-grade copper, bismuth and/or gold.

The target for the proposed drill holes is high-grade copper-gold-bismuth of the Tennant Creekstyle ironstone-hosted deposits. However, it has been demonstrated from recent gold discoveries in the Tennant Creek Mineral Field that hematite ironstones are also important host rock (e.g. Edna Beryl, Emmerson Resources) and these deposits have a weak to non-magnetic expression.

The Company will evaluate the potential for hematite ironstones within the broader project area.

Warrego North Project

Meteoric holds a granted exploration licence (EL23764, 74.5sq km) over magnetic and gravity anomalies near the old Warrego copper-gold mine (1.3M ozs gold, 91,000t copper), the largest mine in the Tennant Creek mineral field. Previous exploration results have identified several large high magnetic susceptibility targets some with pronounced coincident gravity anomalies similar in character to quartz- magnetite-chlorite ironstones associated with high-grade copper-gold-bismuth mineralisation elsewhere in the mineral field. The target areas are situated north and northwest of the Warrego mine as shown in Figure 3. The largest of these targets is Parakeet, situated 15km NW of Warrego.

Meteoric has carried out processing and interpretation of ground magnetic, gravity and induced polarisation (IP) data at Parakeet. The processing includes 3D forward and inversion modelling of the ground magnetic and gravity data as well as 2D modelling of the IP. The Parakeet prospect is associated with two strong magnetic anomalies comparable in intensity with magnetic anomalies associated with copper gold ore bodies in the mineral field.

Historical drilling to depths of up to 200m at Parakeet has demonstrated anomalous copper, gold and bismuth values and ironstone alteration characteristic of Tennant Creek style iron oxidecopper-gold mineralisation. In more detail, the ground magnetic anomalies and associated gravity anomalies highlight three specific targets at Parakeet. All three targets have recorded historical drill intercepts with anomalous copper, gold or bismuth values. 3D inversion modelling of the ground magnetic data has identified a further three bodies bringing to six the total number of modelled bodies at Parakeet with magnetic susceptibility values greater than 0.4 SI units, characteristic of ironstone bodies at Tennant Creek.

Significantly, modelling of the ground magnetics, together with results of down hole magnetic surveys, indicate that the source of the magnetic anomalies at Parakeet has not been tested by the previous drilling, which appears to have intersected what could be the copper halo over a large copper-gold system at depth. It should be noted that these targets are interpretive at this stage and there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a mineral resource and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in the estimation of a mineral resource.

Interpretation of aeromagnetic data suggests the presence of a strong NW-trending structure through Parakeet which could be a parallel structure to, or the extension of, the Navigator Fault, a major structure associated with the Warrego deposit, indicating a favourable structural setting for Parakeet. Additional magnetic and gravity targets which have not been fully tested on EL23764 include Bustard, south of Parakeet and Cuddihy and Pipeline east of the Warrego granite. Further details on the Parakeet targets are shown in MEI ASX release of 14 May 2014.

Farmin Agreement

Under the terms of the agreement CGM has a minimum commitment to drill at least one deep diamond drill hole at Parakeet within the first year. The earn-in has two stages: CGM may earn a 51% interest by sole funding $400,000 within three years and may elect to earn an additional 19% by sole funding another $400,000 within a further two years. A full form agreement will be completed after CGM has completed its minimum commitment and confirmed its intention to continue to earn in. Upon CGM earning an interest a contributing joint venture will be formed with normal provisions for dilution and pre-emptive rights.

High grade Tennant Creek-style copper-gold deposits such as Warrego (7Mt at 8g/t Au and 2% Cu) are very attractive, high value targets. The directors of Meteoric are most encouraged by the results of the geophysical modelling which indicates potential for a large copper-gold system below the previous drilling at Parakeet and welcome the association with CGM which provides the opportunity to test this and other attractive targets near the Warrego mine.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016

==> picture [199 x 58] intentionally omitted <==

NOTE 1 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation

These general purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2016 have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard 134: Interim Financial Reporting .

These financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on the date of the Directors Declaration.

This interim financial report is intended to provide users with an update on the latest annual financial statements of the Company. As such, it does not contain information that represents relatively insignificant changes occurring during the half-year. It is therefore recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2016, together with any public announcements made by the Company during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001.

These financial statements have been prepared on an accruals and historical cost basis, except where indicated.

These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis that contemplates normal business activities and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

Going Concern

The directors have prepared the financial statements of the Company on a going concern basis which contemplates continuity of business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

At the date of this report, the directors have considered the following pertinent matters:

  • (a) cash on hand is approximately $462,500;

  • (b) current cash resources are considered adequate to fund the entity’s immediate operating and reduced exploration activities; and

  • (c) the Company has the ability to raise additional funds by the issue of additional shares or the sale of further assets if a higher level of exploration activity is to be undertaken.

Accounting Policies

The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been followed in this interim financial report as were applied in the most recent annual financial statements.

The Company has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption of these Accounting standards and Interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the Company.

Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards of Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been adopted early.

Independent Auditor’s Review Report

To the members of Meteoric Resources NL

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Meteoric Resources NL, which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016, the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of Meteoric Resources NL are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of Meteoric Resources NL's financial position as at 31 December 2016 and its performance for the halfyear ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001 . As the auditor of Meteoric Resources NL, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

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

Independence

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

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Meteoric Resources NL is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of Meteoric Resources NL’s financial position as at 31 December 2016 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

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