MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Overview
MinRex is an exploration company listed on the Australian stock exchange, whose principal focus is the exploration and development of gold, base metal and tin projects in Australia. The Company is also currently seeking additional projects, both within Australia and overseas. MinRex has two principal projects in its exploration portfolio presently, the Deflector Extended Gold Project in Western Australia and the Heemskirk Tin Project in Tasmania. The Deflector Extended Gold Project lies to the north of Perth, within the Gullewa Greenstone Belt of the Murchison Goldfield. Deposits of gold-copper mineralisation in primary quartz-sulphide veins and secondary gold deposits in surface clays and laterite have been mined in the Gullewa area, in proximity to MinRex’s Project area. The Heemskirk Tin Project in north-western Tasmania has been the site of limited prospecting and exploration activities, focussed on surface mineralisation. The most substantial exploration efforts have been at the Peripatetic Mine which consists of several adits and shafts and numerous small open pits. Within the Project area numerous historical workings, for tin, tungsten and copper, are considered to present a number of exploration opportunities.
Exploration activities, comprising surface sampling and geological prospecting, are currently being carried out by MinRex on both Project areas. These projects provide the Company with a base in two highly prospective areas of Australia.

Figure 1: Location of MinRex Project Areas
Deflector Extended Gold Project
The Deflector Extended Gold Project area (E59/1657) lies along an under-explored, north-eastern extension of the Deflector mineralisation trend (Figure 2), which hosts Mutiny Gold Ltd’s Gullewa Gold Project. Aeromagnetic imagery demonstrates the presence of a large granite intrusion within the southern sections of the tenement. This granite exhibits a strong spatial association with the Deflector and Golden Stream gold-copper deposits, which occur on the western contact of the intrusion and are coincident with a series of crosscutting northeast - southwest trending faults. To the southwest of the Project area, the Deflector Central and Deflector West open pits have been mined for gold-copper mineralisation in shear zones in metabasalt, while the Golden Stream Mine has been mined for gold in shear zone-hosted quartz veins in metabasalt.
During the past year exploration activities were designed to build on the earlier auger soil and MAGLAG sampling program, completed in 2012, over the Project.

Figure 2: Geological Map of the Gullewa Area showing Deflector Extended Gold Project
The Project area is predominantly covered by transported soil, colluvium and alluvium, which effectively conceal any mineralisation present. The area has historically been examined by regional soil geochemistry surveys, rock chip sampling and limited RAB / AC drilling. The previously completed exploration work is encouraging, especially the early geochemistry and RAB drilling that shows some clearly anomalous gold values within the tenement. Overlapping structural and soil geochemistry anomalies have been delineated at Deflector Extended and now provide the priority exploration targets which are being investigated by MinRex.
==> picture [364 x 248] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 3: Structural and Geochemical Trends in the Deflector Extended Gold Project
In the district, mineralisation occurs in shear zones which are focussed on structures within greenstones, or in structures on the margins of greenstones (i.e. along internal sediment horizons or near the contact with granites). The main structural trend is southwest-northeast, although some deposits are on structures in other orientations.
5
MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report
Following a comprehensive review of all available data, field reconnaissance programs commenced in 2012 and it is planned that these will be followed with a limited program of RAB or AC drilling. In March 2013, a preliminary geological evaluation and surface sampling program was conducted over the Project. All parts of the lease were visited and observations made of the geomorphology, soil types and rock outcrops and a total of thirty rock chip samples, of vein quartz, cherty sediments, aplite and ironstone, were collected for analysis. The rock chip samples returned anomalous gold values (up to 68 ppb), copper (up to 426 ppm) and lead (up to 146 ppm). This sampling supplemented the earlier pattern auger and other geochemical surveys, where the large spacing of the sample points may have missed narrow mineralised structures.
It is planned to conduct further follow up surface sampling and evaluation in the area of these initial anomalous results.
==> picture [425 x 476] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 4: Plan Showing Rock Chip Sampling Sites at Deflector Extended Gold Project
MinRex will continue its systematic exploration activities at the Deflector Extended area to identify the source of enrichment observed to date, with a view to the intersection of economically significant precious and base metal mineralisation. It is expected that careful observation of the geology, structure, depth of weathering, previous geochemistry and RAB drill results will be used to deduce the most favourable sites at the Project for small, highly-targeted drill programs.
6
MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report
In conclusion, the Deflector Extended Gold Project area is clearly prospective for hidden gold or gold-copper deposits, as demonstrated by the known deposit density in the region and the presence of a known deposit, within a short distance (some 2 km), on a structure that trends into the tenement. Any mineralised structures in the area are not showing up in the available geophysics and are showing muted responses to geochemistry and therefore will require further detailed surface geochemistry and geological mapping to define.
Heemskirk Tin Project
MinRex considers the Heemskirk Tin Project to be prospective for tin-tungsten mineralisation due to the presence of multiple small known deposits in the granitic and sedimentary rock sequences in the area. The large granitic area is also considered prospective for granite-hosted uranium deposits (alaskite-type) for which little exploration is thought to have occurred in the past. The remote location of the project, surficial cover sequences, vegetation and climate are all thought to have detracted from the application of modern exploration methods to the Project area previously.
==> picture [344 x 370] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 5: Heemskirk Tin Project Location and Tenement Plan.
In the first year of holding the Heemskirk Tin Project (EL18/2011), MinRex completed a review and interpretation of previous exploration and geophysical data, a re-processing and analysis of the government airborne magnetic and radiometric geophysical data over the Heemskirk area and two field reconnaissance trips, each of several days duration, that have collected a total of 53 rock chip and stream sediment samples (and chemical analysis of these samples).
In the second half of 2012, MinRex commissioned a re-processing and analysis of the government airborne geophysical data (magnetic and radiometric) over the Heemskirk area. This reappraisal demonstrated that, regionally, the Heemskirk Granite generates a comparatively low magnetic profile, bounded by a strong magnetic aureole in surrounding country rocks. EL18/2011 lies wholly within the Heemskirk Granite outcrop; white granite occupies the western two-thirds of the EL, while the eastern third is underlain by red granite. Tin mineralisation is typically associated with the white phase of the granite. Larger tin deposits in northwest Tasmania are commonly associated with prominent magnetic anomalies, located peripherally to granite intrusions within their magnetic aureoles. However, the area covered by the Project does not extend beyond the granite outcrop and hence does not exhibit a strong magnetic aureole.
7
MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report
The re-processing and analysis of the government airborne geophysical data (magnetic and radiometric) over the Heemskirk area determined the following salient observations:
-
There is a likely association of tin mineralisation in the area with subtle variations in the magnetic signature, linked to magnetite concentration within the more prospective white granite phase.
-
Practical application of Tilt Derivative techniques could be employed to enhance subtle magnetic features within the granite.
-
Identification of a 1.5 km long Tilt-enhanced anomaly near the Peripatetic Mine, together with subtle magnetic anomalies, to the east and south of Fisher and Smiths Section Workings.
-
Identification of a radiometric high, proximal to known mineralisation at Fisher and Smiths Section Workings.
-
The potential use of U/Th ratios as an exploration vector, together with the presence of low U/Th ratios along the northern sections of EL18/2011, encompassing the McGuinness and Peripatetic Mines.
==> picture [377 x 310] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 6: Heemskirk Project Aeromagnetic Image - enhanced
Whereas the significance of the refined magnetic and radiometric anomalies is not able to be determined at this stage, further follow-up activities are planned to test the precision of such magnetic exploration vectors.
This study also concluded that - given the low magnetic relief within the granite, the likely size of a deposit and the 200 m aeromagnetic line spacing, any magnetic response directly associated with tin mineralisation in the Heemskirk Tin Project area is likely to be both small and subtle.
Regionally, the Heemskirk Granite outcrop is associated with a stronger radiometric signal compared with surrounding country rock. Also the eastern half (red granite) exhibits a significantly higher radiometric signal compared with the western half (white granite). Individual drainage channels near the coast have stronger radiometric responses, consistent with selective erosion from radiometrically active portions of the granite and subsequent deposition in local drainages and along the adjacent coastline.
Uranium to thorium channel ratio analysis (U/Th) outlines a broad (1 km -2 km wide) diffuse zone of low U/Th ratios stretching across the northern section of EL18/2011, these might be indicative of zones more prospective for tin mineralisation.

Figure 7: Heemskirk Tin Project Radiometrics – U/Th ratio
In addition to the literature review, discussed above, an initial reconnaissance exploration of the Heemskirk Tin Project (EL18/2011) was commissioned by MinRex. This field work included several days in the field locating, examining and sampling historic workings and geology. The area has contained many small, but rich, tin oxide bodies associated with various vein types. Many old workings were located and examined, with these generally are thought to date from between 1876 and 1900.
In the initial program, 13 rock chip and 10 stream sediment samples were collected, with these all being analysed for gold, silver, copper, molybdenum, nickel, lead, tin, titanium, tungsten and zinc. This was intended to be an initial reconnaissance and determination of background anomalism levels. Vein hosted and replacement mineralisation was noted at the McGuinness and Iron Blow workings and a large area of sericitic alteration was seen immediately to the west of South Gap Creek. These areas having been specifically identified as worthy of further inspection and having the potential to be associated with larger mineralised systems. It was concluded from this work that future exploration activities should be concentrated on the McGuinness, Iron Blow and South Gap areas, specifically for tin, silver and molybdenum mineralisation.
Subsequently, a follow-up detailed stream sediment sampling program was undertaken, starting with drainages surrounding historic workings, including the Peripatetic and McGuinness Mines. This second exploration sampling program aimed to confirm the effectiveness of these sampling techniques and establish a statistical base from which to distinguish background from anomalous tenors for a range of metallic elements. A total of 30 additional stream sediment samples were collected and analysed for gold, silver, arsenic, molybdenum, tin and tungsten. A third phase of follow up surface sampling has yet to commence.

Figure 8: Heemskirk Project Stream Sediment Locations
In summary, in the first year of exploration activities at the Heemskirk Tin Project, MinRex has completed a literature review, re-processing and analysis of the government airborne magnetic and radiometric geophysical data, surface reconnaissance, mapping and evaluation of old workings and collected and analysed some 53 rock and stream sediment samples, for multiple metallic elements.
In the next year of the exploration program, the Company plans to:-
-
continue the surface stream sediment sampling, especially around old workings;
-
conduct more detailed mapping in old workings and known alteration zones;
-
seek out more definitive geophysical or remote sensing methods that will allow better definition of potential mineralised zones and structures; and
-
review other mineralisation models for potential granite-hosted mineralisation.
Follow-up Exploration Activities:
Exploration activities planned by the Company in the next year for its Project areas in Western Australia and Tasmania are given below.

MinRex Resources NL Directors’ Report
Deflector Extended Gold Project
Results from the recent sampling program have been assessed and further field work will be completed to follow up in the areas with anomalous results. This aims to better delineate potential targets prior to consideration being given to a drilling and sampling program on target zones within the Deflector Extended Gold Project area.
Heemskirk Tin Project
Assessment of the results received to date has been made and follow up field sampling is now being planned. It is considered that the prospectivity of the area warrants further work and a follow-up sampling program is being designed to further test the Heemskirk Tin Project area.
SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE
In the opinion of the directors there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company other than those referred to in this financial report.

(d) Accounting policies
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty. The Company assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria to determine if it is acting as principal or agent. The Company has concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue arrangements. The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Interest income
Interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability.
Income tax
The income tax expense (revenue) comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income).
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the period as well unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial
24
MinRex Resources NL Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2013
recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
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.
Receivables
Amounts receivable from third parties are carried at amortised cost. The recoverability of the debts is assessed at balance date and specific allowance is made for any doubtful accounts.
Mining tenements and mineral exploration and evaluation expenditure
Mining tenements are carried at cost, less accumulated impairment losses.
Exploration, evaluation and development 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 period in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
When production commences, the accumulated exploration, evaluation and development costs for the relevant area of interest are capitalised and amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.
25
MinRex Resources NL Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2013
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.
Property, plant and equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation and amortisation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised leased assets is calculated using the straight line method, over their estimated useful lives to the economic entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The straight line depreciation and amortisation rates used for each class of assets are as follows: Plant and equipment 20%
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income.
Impairment of assets
At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed in profit and loss.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Accounts payable
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the Company. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 30 - 45 days.
Contributed equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown as a deduction from the equity proceeds, net of any income tax benefit.
26
MinRex Resources NL Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2013
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expected liability.
Employee benefits
Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave due to be settled within 12 months of the statement of financial position date are recognised in respect of employees' services rendered up to statement of financial position date and measured at amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when leave is taken and measured at the actual rates paid or payable. Liabilities for wages and salaries are included as part of other payables and liabilities for annual and sick leave are included as part of employee benefit provisions.
Long service leave
Liabilities for long service leave are recognised as part of the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees to the statement of financial position date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expect future salaries and wages levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using national government bond rates at the statement of financial position date with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
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 of MinRex Resources NL.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to members of the Company for the reporting period, after excluding any costs of servicing equity, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares of the Company, adjusted for any bonus issue.
27
MinRex Resources NL Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2013
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the basic EPS earnings, adjusted by the after tax effect of financing costs associated with dilutive potential Ordinary Shares and the effect on revenues and expenses of conversion to Ordinary Shares associated with dilutive potential Ordinary Shares, by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares and dilutive Ordinary Shares adjusted for any bonus issue.
3. Segment Information
For management purposes, the Company is organized into one main operating segment, which involves mining and exploration for gold and other minerals. All of the Company’s activities are interrelated, and discrete financial information is reported to the Board (Chief Operating Decision Makers) as a single segment. Accordingly, all significant operating decisions are based upon analysis of the Company as one segment. The financial results from this segment are equivalent to the financial statements of the Company as a whole. Total revenue earned by the Company is generated in Australia and all the Company’s non-current assets reside in Australia.

The Company has $706,070 in losses for income tax purposes. The aggregate deferred tax benefit of $213,990 has not been carried forward as an asset in the Statement of Financial Position as realisation of the benefit is not regarded as probable and will only be obtained if:
(a) the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit from the exploration expenditure and tax losses to be realised;
(b) the Company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the law; and
(c) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the benefit from the tax losses.

| shares used in calculating diluted loss per share | 18,375,001 | 11,022,356 |
There is no impact on diluted loss per share of the 17,500,000 partly paid shares outstanding at 30 June 2013 because they are anti-dilutive. The partly paid shares could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future.
15. Financial Risk Management
Exposure to interest rate, liquidity and credit risk arises in the normal course of the Company’s business. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments.
The Company uses different methods as discussed below to manage risks that arise from these financial instruments. The objective is to support the delivery of the financial targets while protecting future financial security.
(a) Liquidity Risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash facilities to meet the operating requirements of the business. The responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors.
Maturity analysis for financial liabilities
Financial liabilities of the Company comprise trade and other payables. As at 30 June 2013 all financial liabilities are contractually matured within 30 days.
(b) Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of financial instruments.
The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes to interest rate risk relates primarily to its earnings on cash.

Interest rate sensitivity
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity of the Company’s statement of comprehensive income to a reasonably possible change in variable interest rates, with all other variables constant.
| Effect on Post Tax | Effect on Equity | Effect on Post Tax | Effect on Equity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Earnings | Including | Earnings | Including |
| accumulated | accumulated losses | ||
| Increase/(Decrease) | Losses | Increase/(Decrease) | Increase/(Decrease) |
| Increase/(Decrease) |
| 2013 | 2013 | 2012 | 2012 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $ | $ | $ | $ | |
| Increase 100 | ||||
| basis points | 25,569 | 25,569 | 29,553 | 29,553 |
| Decrease 100 | ||||
| basispoints | (25,569) | (25,569) | (29,553) | (29,553) |
A sensitivity of 100 basis points has been used as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both short term and long term Australian Dollar interest rates. The change in basis points is derived from a review of historical movements and management’s judgement of future trends.
(c) Credit Risk Exposures
Credit risk represents the risk that the counterparty to the financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the Company to incur a financial loss. The Company’s maximum credit exposure is the carrying amounts of financial assets in the statement of financial position.
At 30 June 2013, the Company held cash at bank. These were held with financial institution with a rating from Standard & Poors of AA or above (long term). The Company has no past due or impaired debtors as at 30 June 2013 (2012 Nil).
