Pre-Mining Investigations at East Sampson Dam
The Company commissioned investigations on the gold potential at East Sampson Dam, including;
- Flora and Fauna Survey:
Moho engaged Onshore Environmental Consultants Pty Ltd (Onshore) to undertake a detailed flora and vegetation survey, and a Level 1 vertebrate fauna survey covering approximately 150 hectares associated with the East Sampson Dam tenements M27/263 and E27/528.
The flora and vegetation survey was completed by a Principal Botanist between the 21st and 24th of October 2019. The fauna assessment was undertaken by a Principal Zoologist between the 22nd and 24th November 2019.
None of the plant taxa recorded from the study area were gazetted as Threatened Flora (BC Act)1, or listed under the EPBC Act2 or listed as Priority flora taxa by the (DBCA)3. There were no introduced species (weeds) recorded from the study area at October 2019.
A single nest mound belonging to the Mallee fowl (Leipoa ocellate), was located approximately 700m south of the East Sampson Dam prospect. Moho will ensure that any of its ground disturbing activities will avoid this area. Moho considers no flora or fauna-related impediments have been identified to restrict gold mining at the East Sampson Dam prospect.
• Aboriginal Heritage Sites Survey:
The Aboriginal Heritage Sites Survey at East Sampson Dam was undertaken between 9, 10 and 11 November 2018, with representatives of the Maduwongga people who are the Registered Traditional Owners for this region.
The Aboriginal Heritage consultant team confirmed that there were no sites of cultural or archaeological significance within the proposed works area.
The members of the Heritage consultant team were satisfied that the proposed works do not contain any sites of archaeological or ethnographic significance and recommended that Moho proceed with their planned works.
• Consultant Mining Engineer has been engaged to coordinate studies and prepare a detailed mining proposal including investigation into Gold processing facilities in the Kalgoorlie area
An approximate timeline of the tasks to be undertaken to enable Moho to complete a pre-feasibility study of potential gold mining options which, if successful and sufficiently viable, could lead to commencement of gold production from M27/263, is outlined in the bar chart in Figure 4.

Aircore drilling at Silver Swan North project
In September 2019 the Company completed a programme of 43 aircore holes across four project tenements (E27/345, E27/528, P27/2390, P27/2232) for a total of 3430m of drilling (Figure 5).
The majority of holes were drilled on E27/345 (21 holes totalling 1553m) to test gravity lows with coincident elevated nickel in historic auger soils for potential Black Swan style disseminated and/or blebby mineralisation.
Five holes were drilled (437m) on P27/2390 to test for potential ultramafics in a major gravity low identified in a 2011 geophysical interpretation of the project geology. On P27/2232, three holes were drilled (219m) to test for potential ultramafics in a gravity low along a major NW trending break in a large regional gravity high.
Fourteen stratigraphic aircore holes were drilled (1221m) across E27/528 to test the major regional gravity high for possible accumulations of nickel sulphides that could exist within non-magnetic ultramafic rocks under deep cover. This drilling was subsidised by a DMIRS Exploration Incentive Scheme co-funding grant (ASX release, 7 December 2018) to the Company that will pay for 50% of the drilling costs (up to $150,000).
354 samples were submitted to SGS Kalgoorlie for Au and base metals analyses. Assay results have been received and the only anomalism reported is for silver (Table 1).

SSMH0014
----- End of picture text -----
Figure 5: Location of aircore drill holes on 1VD gravity of the Silver Swan North project
The majority of the discovered silver anomalism (SSMH0007-0014) is associated with saprolite in a large circular gravity low on the eastern side of the major gravity high in E27/345. In SSMH0014 the silver anomalism is in saprolitic clay weathered black shale. This interval is approximately 400 m S and 200 m E of the silver anomalism intersected in previous reverse circulation hole SSMH0003, which is hosted in a massive black shale unit sandwiched within a larger sequence of felsic volcanic tuffs.

Moho interprets from this drilling and historical drilling further N and S of SSMH0014 that the pronounced, thin sinuous N-S gravity low on the eastern side of the major gravity high in E27/345 reflects a unit of black shale (Figure 5). While interesting the company was unable to define any significant mineralisation on the tenement and the tenement was at the end of its tenure extension period the company decided to relinquish E27/345.
The gravity lows tested on P27/2390 and 2232 are comprised of basalt. No recognisable ultramafic rocks were intersected in any of the drill holes. The limited reconnaissance stratigraphic drilling undertaken on E27/528 in the central area of the large gravity high, has shown this part of E27/528 is predominantly comprised of basalt and dolerite. Most of the major gravity high on E27/528 remains untested.
Nickel Sulphide Exploration Commenced on E27/613
E27/613 (100% Moho tenure) covering 14.8km2 was granted on 27th August 2019. The tenement is located ~7km NW of the high-grade Silver Swan nickel sulphide deposit (Figures 6).
An initial review of the historical data indicates the tenement has received no nickel exploration to date, with all prior exploration there was for gold. An approximately 3.3km long, magnetic unit coincident with a zone of ultramafic rocks has been identified by GSWA mapping within the tenement (Figure 3). Moho is in the process of undertaking a more detailed review and assessment of open file historical geophysical, geological and geochemical data on this tenement.
Moho intends to explore targets generated from the historical data synthesis, which will initially include field verification, mapping, soil and rock chip sampling where appropriate, and potentially detailed ground gravity and SQUID EM surveying.

CSIRO Litho-geochemical “Fingerprinting” Project
During the period Moho received the final report from CSIRO for the litho-geochemical “fingerprinting” project covering E27/528 and M27/263. The aim of this research project was to distinguish and map from historical diamond drill holes ultramafic stratigraphy which may be prospective for nickel sulphide mineralisation. Moho is currently reviewing this report to consider the implications for nickel exploration at the Silver Swan North Project.

Moho’s Interest in Silver Swan Tenements
Moho is the 100% registered owner of granted tenements E27/528, P27/2232, P27/2390, E27/613 and the applicant for ELA27/623 and ELA27/626. In July 2015 Moho entered into a farm-in and joint venture agreement with Odin Metals Ltd (ASX:ODM, then Lawson Gold Ltd) (Odin) to earn up to 70% interest in M27/263 and E27/345. E27/345 was exhaustively explored and has been relinquished. Farmin expenditure by Moho resulted in the Company earning a 51% interest in the joint venture in early 2019 and subsequently finalised the 70% earn-in interest in M27/345 in March 2020.
EMPRESS SPRINGS EXPLORATION
The Empress Springs Project is located 50 km to the south of the town of Croydon and comprises three adjacent exploration permits (EPM25208, EPM25209 and EPM25210), with a total area of 773 km² (Figure 7). The Croydon Goldfield, which extends from north of the town, contained over 300 gold occurrences with historical production estimated at 1.2Moz of Au. The Empress Springs project is a joint venture with IGO Limited (IGO).

Moho Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2019
The company completed 70 aircore (AC) drill holes out of a total of 116 holes drilled in the 2019 field season. The AC program (Figure 8) expanded the testing of bedrock beneath cover rocks in new areas of the project along existing tracks, while holes were also completed at the Arrowhead and Arrowhead West prospects to clarify mineralisation previously discovered by Moho (see ASX release on 1 July 2019). The program included 5,063m of blade and 1,062m of hammer drilling for a total of 6,125m.

YAPPAR PROSPECT
Drilling at the Yappar prospect (Figure 8) was designed to explore altered rocks in water bore drill chip spoil in the area. 510m of drilling was completed for seven holes at the Yappar prospect. Initially four AC holes (ESMH0025-ESMH0028) were drilled into bedrock along an existing track in an area interpreted from aeromagnetic data to be composed of dolerite and confirmed by the drilling. Three holes were then drilled to follow up base metal anomalism identified in ESMH0028 and ESMH0026 (Figure 9).
The gold and base metal/pathfinder element geochemistry at Yappar was reviewed by Dr Carl Brauhart (CSA Global), who noted two different and widespread anomalous base metal associations as follows:
-
High Pb-Au–(Ag-Cd-Zn-Cu) association is well developed in hole ESMH0115; and
-
High Zn-Ag-Cd-Cu-Sn (but NOT Pb-Au) association is well developed over 1.3km from ESMH0025 to ESMH0027.
Zn-Ag-Cu-Cd-Sn mineralisation in ESMH0026, 115 and 116 is associated with chlorite altered dolerites and basalts close to the inferred rim of an interpreted buried caldera.

Moho Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2019
Moho will plan additional drilling in the area near structures and the interpreted caldera to determine the nature and extent of the base metal/pathfinder anomalism and gold and silver mineralisation (Table 2).

WILSON BORE PROSPECT
Five aircore holes totalling 400m were drilled at the Wilson Bore prospect (ESMH0029, 30, 57-59) to test the southern side of the interpreted caldera rim for potential mineralisation. Anomalous gold was intersected over a distance of 1.4km in holes ESMH0029, 30 & 58 (Table 3).
Table 3: Gold and silver intersections at the Wilson Bore prospect
| HoleID | From (m) | To (m) | Interval (m) | Au (g/t) | Ag (g/t) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ESMH0029 | 62 | 64 | 2 | 0.12 | |
| ESMH0030 | 68 | 72 | 4 | 0.13 | |
| ESMH0030 | 68 | 96 | 28 | 1.11 | |
| ESMH0058 | 68 | 70 | 2 | 0.29 |
Other results included:
- Silver mineralisation (28m @ 1.11g/t Ag from 68 – 96m) was intersected in ESMH0030 which also contains anomalous gold and associated arsenic in the top 2m of a weathered dolerite.
ESMH0030 appears to lie on a NW-trending break in the aeromagnetic data that might reflect a structure, which is supported by increased arsenic values. Geological logging of ESMH0030 noted there was intense chlorite alteration in the bottom of the hole.
-
Gold intersected in ESMH0058 lies within the top 2m of the weathered granitic basement.
-
Gold intersected in ESMH0029 was located within the cover rocks 10m above the bedrock.
Two of the three gold-only anomalies are from the top sampled interval of in-situ bedrock at the interface with the transported overburden. Combined with the observed deep chlorite-sericite in ESMH0030, Dr Brauhart suggests the source of the anomalous gold there might be locally derived.

A total of 25 AC holes for 1,630m were drilled at Arrowhead on four traverses north and south of the mineralisation discovered during RC drilling (Figure 11). These holes were designed to clarify the local geology and search for extensions to and orientation of the gold mineralisation north and south of ESMH0001. The drilling did not intersect significant gold mineralisation but extended base metal anomalism both north and south of the discovery hole.
The gold and base metal/pathfinder element geochemistry at Arrowhead was reviewed by Dr Brauhart, who noted two different anomalous precious and base metal associations as follows:
-
A proximal Pb-Au–(Ag-Cd-Zn-Cu) association is well developed in holes ESMH001, ESMH0024, ESMH0094 & ESA023 and is characterised by K-feldspar +/- sericite alteration (Figure 11); and
-
A distal Zn-Cd-Cu-Sn (but NOT Pb-Au) association which is characterised by chlorite alteration.
The distal metal association is also well developed at the Arrowhead West and Yappar prospects. Dr Brauhart notes that “these ‘distal’ alteration and metal associations are regarded as highly prospective”. Dr Brauhart concludes by stating that “The scale of the mineral system revealed by the available data warrants further enthusiastic exploration”.
At the Arrowhead West area, 8 additional AC holes totalling 475m were drilled on two traverses north and south of strong base metal mineralisation located in ESMH0018. This follow-up drilling did not find extensions to the mineralisation.

Moho Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2019
Hunting Large Mineralised Systems
The Company is highly encouraged by the wide-spread anomalous mineralisation intersected at such an early stage of drilling and remains confident the Empress Springs project has the potential to host large mineral systems.
The Company is reviewing all data with a view to advancing its geological model to assist targeting of larger mineralising systems in the project area, and has engaged several renowned consultants including Dr Gregg Morrison of Klondike Exploration Services, Dr Jon Hronsky OAM of Western Mining Services, Richard Carver of GCXplore, Dr Carl Brauhart of CSA Global and Kim Frankcombe of ExploreGeo to review the geophysical, geochemical, lithology and alteration styles encountered in Moho’s drilling at Empress Springs.
During the period previously applied for tenements (EPM27199, EPM27193 and EPM27200) around the existing tenements were granted, adding an additional ~380km[2] to Moho’s existing tenements in the area.
Moho’s Interest in Empress Springs Tenements
On 27 July 2016 the Company entered into a farm-in joint venture agreement with Independence Newsearch Pty Ltd (as amended on 6 April 2018) (INPL) (a wholly owned subsidiary of IGO Limited) pursuant to which the Company may earn up to a 70% interest in EP25208, EPM25209 and EPM25210, within the Empress Springs Project, in two stages:
- (a) (Earn-in Right): the Company may:
(i) earn a 51% interest in the tenements by expending $1,000,000 on exploration activities by 27 July 2019; and
(ii) in the event that the 51% interest is earned, the Company has an additional right to earn a further 19% interest in the tenements by expending a further $1,400,000 within 4 years of acquiring its 51% joint venture interest.
(b) (Formation of Joint Venture): on and from the date on which the Company earns a 51% interest in the tenements, the parties shall form an unincorporated joint venture for the purpose of exploring, and if warranted, developing and mining the tenements.
Following formation of the joint venture, the Company is proposed to be manager of the joint venture;
(c) (Free-carried Interest or Buy-back): In the event that the Company elects to earn the additional 19% interest, INPL’s joint venture interest is free carried until completion of a pre-feasibility study.
(d) (Buy Back on Potential Mining Area (PMA)): Upon completion of a pre-feasibility study on a PMA, INPL may elect to contribute to the joint venture to the extent of its interest, convert its interest to a 10% free-carried interest or buy-back a 21% interest in the joint venture in that PMA. The consideration payable for the buyback will be based on the market value of the tenements or otherwise the value of 3.5 times the expenditure incurred by the Company on the tenements.
In the event that the buy-back is completed, INPL will be manager of the joint venture on the PMA. Following the buy-back, the Company will be entitled to contribute to the work programme to the extent of its interest or convert to a 30% free-carried interest in respect of the PMA.
The Company will remain manager of the remaining tenements outside the PMA and it will be required to contribute to the work programmes in proportion to its interest at the time.
On 30[th] January 2019, Moho notified INPL that it had met the initial Earn-in on the tenements at Empress Springs under the terms of the Letter Agreement (details below). Moho also notified INPL that it had elected to proceed with the exploration to earn an additional 19% interest in the tenements in accordance with the Empress Springs Letter Agreement.

Moho Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2019
In February 2019 Moho applied for an additional 2,004 km2 of highly prospective ground, mostly adjacent to the Empress Springs Project. Most of this ground has recently been granted and falls under the same conditions as the initial Empress Springs tenements.
BURRACOPPIN GOLD EXPLORATION

infrastructure (source: DMIRS GeoVIEW)
During the period the company continued its exploration program on the Burracoppin gold project, located 22 km west of the Edna May gold mine in WA (Figure 11). The company completed 814 shallow auger holes to test aeromagnetic and gravity targets plus gold in soil anomalies within E70/4688 with the northern results reported on 16 September 2019. The program focused on a number of exploration targets which the Company had previously identified within the Tampia Structural Corridor of the Southwestern Terrane.

Moho Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2019
Northern Gold Anomaly (“Crossroads”)
Results from the first 380 auger holes at the Crossroads prospect within E70/4688located gold anomalies of >25 ppb gold including a number which assayed >100 ppb gold (Figure 12). The broader gold anomaly at the >8 ppb level is approximately 1.4 km E-W by 0.7 km N-S and is open to the north and west.
==> picture [488 x 491] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 12: Revised gold soil anomaly with >16ppm arsenic contour overlaid, Crossroads prospect, Burracoppin gold project
Moho considers coherent values above the 25 ppb level to be anomalous and above the 75 ppb level as highly anomalous even in some locations where gold is associated with calcrete. Moho is encouraged by the presence of discrete arsenic anomalism within the gold anomalous area.
18
Moho Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2019
The area is characterised by scattered float of mafic granulite and amphibolite, considered to be similar to rocks in the area of the Tampia gold deposit near Narembeen (Total Resources of 8.2 Mt @ 1.7 g/t Au for 460 koz; ASX announcement, Ramelius Resources Ltd dated 17 June 2019).
It should be noted there is some gold anomalism related to an iron element association, which most likely reflects ironrich transported regolith material (Brauhart, 2019). Moho is planning a regolith mapping program to provide geological context to the auger results.
New Southern Gold Anomaly (“Golden Hind”)
Results from the southern part of the survey area highlighted a new coherent linear >25 ppb gold anomaly within E70/4688, henceforth named the Golden Hind anomaly (Figure 11). The target was a pronounced aeromagnetic low, suggesting an area of magnetite destruction (a potential sign of a mineralising system) along the interpreted Tampia shear zone. The gold anomaly at the >25 ppb level is approximately 1.0 km long trending N-S by 0.1 km E-W and is open to the north and west. Moho considers coherent values above 25 ppb Au to be anomalous and above 75 ppb Au as highly anomalous.
The area is also characterised by a coincident Ni-Cu anomaly that coincides with a thin mafic granulite that can be seen from rock float in the paddocks. The Au anomaly is either in the granulite or on the contact with the granite to the west, with some milky quartz found in the area.
Coincident Arsenic and EM Anomaly at Crossroads Prospect
Moho’s geophysicist has drawn the Company’s attention to an EM anomaly identified from the airborne EM survey flown in November 2018 to search for base metal mineralisation.
The EM anomaly was initially discounted as being due to a regolith feature but is considered worthy of further investigation due to its closeness to the highest arsenic value at the Crossroads Prospect (Figure 13).
Moho believes that the auger arsenic anomaly could be related to sulphide mineralisation in the underlying bedrock. The auger sampling has already confirmed a spatial relationship between gold and arsenic anomalism at Crossroads. Moho plans to test the EM anomaly during the aircore drill program planned for the Crossroads Prospect in Q1 2020.

Orientation Soil Sampling Program
Soil samples were taken adjacent to selected adjacent auger holes at the Crossroads (Figure 14) and Golden Hind (Figure 15) gold anomalies and screened at -80# fraction (-177 micron). Gold analyses were undertaken by Bureau Veritas (BV), Perth by Aqua Regia digest with ICP-MS finish (same as used for the auger samples).

Moho Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2019
In general the orientation soil survey produced positive outcomes, including:
-
a good correlation with prior auger drill results
-
the auger gold anomalies were confirmed by the soil survey
-
auger gold assay levels were about twice the magnitude of soil levels
The survey has provided Moho with encouragement to initiate a more extensive soil and drainage sampling program over the Burracoppin Project.
Aeromagnetic and Ground Gravity Surveys
Infill aeromagnetic and ground gravity surveys over the project area (Figure 16) were completed in October. Evaluation of the surveys will provide a sound geophysical basis to refine the exploration targets generated from the soil sampling and the proposed aircore drill program.

Air Core (AC) Drilling of Crossroads Gold-Arsenic Anomaly
A Program of Works has been approved by DMIRS to allow Moho to drill up to 40 reconnaissance air core holes across and along the Crossroads anomaly (Figure 17). The program, which is scheduled for Q1 2020, will test targets up to
300m wide incorporating the auger gold and arsenic anomalies and the re-evaluated EM anomaly.

New Exploration Licence Applications
Four EL applications covering 42 sub blocks have been lodged with DMIRS for areas contiguous with Moho’s existing tenements at Burracoppin (Figure 11). It is anticipated that these should be approved in H2 2020.

Moho Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 31 December 2019
Note 1. Significant accounting policies
These general purpose financial statements for the interim half year reporting period ended 31 December 2019 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities.
These financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2019 and any public announcements made by Moho Resources Limited during the half year reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, unless otherwise stated.
These interim financial statements were authorised for issue on 11 March 2020.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As disclosed in the financial statements, the Company incurred a loss of $820,447 and had net cash outflows from operating activities of $502,988 for the half-year ended 31 December 2019. As at that date, the Company had net current liabilities of $70,346.
The Directors believe that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern, after consideration of the following factors:
-
Subsequent to the reporting date and as disclosed in Note 9, the Company received $1.28 million in cash from a refundable tax offset for eligible research and development (R&D) expenditure;
-
The Company has been successful in raising capital, as and when required; and
-
The Company has the ability to scale back certain parts of their activities to conserve cash.
New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The company has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The impact on the financial performance and position of the Company from the adoption of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations was not material.
Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
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, with the addition of the following:
AASB 16 Leases
The Company has adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019. The standard replaces AASB 117 'Leases' and for lessees eliminates the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets, rightof-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position. Straight-line operating lease expense recognition is replaced with a depreciation charge for the right-of-use assets (included in operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease liabilities (included in finance costs). In the earlier periods of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease under AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease expenses under
AASB 117. However, EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results improve as the operating expense is now replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss. For classification within the statement of cash flows, the interest portion is disclosed in operating activities and the principal portion of the lease payments are separately disclosed in financing activities. For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases.
Impact of adoption
AASB 16 was adopted using the modified retrospective approach and as such the comparatives have not been restated. The impact of adoption on opening retained profits as at 1 July 2019 was deemed to be immaterial.

An impairment expense was recognised in profit or loss for the half year ended 31 December 2019 of $431,104 (2018: $NIL). The impairment expense recognised was for costs previously capitalised on relinquished tenements.
The ultimate recoupment of balances carried forward in relation to areas of interest still in the exploration or valuation phase is dependent on successful development, and commercial exploitation, or alternatively sale of the respective areas. The Company conducts impairment testing at each reporting date when indicators of impairment are present.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MOHO RESOURCES LIMITED
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Moho Resources Limited, which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2019, 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 the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the 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 half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 31 December 2019 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of Moho Resources Limited, 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 .

-
