2. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Principal Activities and Review and Results of Activities
The principal activity of the Company during the financial year was mineral exploration. There has been no significant change in the nature of these activities during the financial year.
Exploration Activities – Overview
Quantum is an Australian explorer with a suite of projects in Western Australia and the Northern Territory (Figure 1 & Table 1). The projects are all located on granted titles and are prospective for gold and base metals.

FIGURE 1 – Project Location Plan
TELFER PROJECT
(Quantum 100%)
The Company’s Telfer Project comprises a single exploration licence in a tightly held area 6km from the Telfer Gold Mine within the world class Paterson Province in Western Australia, which is host to significant deposits of various styles of mineralisation including the Telfer Mine, O’Callaghans tungsten and base metals skarn deposit, the Kintyre uranium deposit and the Nifty copper deposit. The Telfer deposit is one of Australia's largest deposits with a reported Ore Reserve of 6.3 million ounces of gold and 0.295 million tonnes of copper within a Mineral Resource of approximately 15 million ounces of gold (December 2013). The O’Callaghan’s ore body, 10km south east of Telfer mine, is also owned by Newcrest and hosts significant resources of tungsten, copper, lead and zinc.
Reprocessing and interpretation of historic airborne electromagnetic and magnetic data by an external consultant identified the extension of a dome structure, which hosts the 17 Mile hill deposit, into the tenement area. The consultant identified a new target area associated with the structure and a potential granite intrusion satisfying a number of important exploration criteria in the Telfer region.
A limited amount of wide-spaced geochemical drilling has been undertaken in the target area (see Figure 2). The drill holes are relatively shallow and typically terminated at the base of the transported overburden. Geological logs reveal that anomalous gold values in some holes may be associated with lateritic residuum at the base of the transported overburden and have not been adequately followed up. This is encouraging and represents an opportunity for immediate investigation through either extending the grid or drilling closer spaced holes to test the fresh bedrock.

Magnetic Target Areas
Further review of the drill hole geochemical assay data identified that maximum down-hole gold values are spatially associated with areas of subdued magnetic response such as Area 1 in Figure 3. The subdued magnetic response possibly represents destruction of magnetite due to hydrothermal alteration, which may be associated with mineralisation. Additional areas with a subdued magnetic response have been identified (eg Area 2 and Area 3), which have not been adequately drilled and are considered valid targets for reconnaissance geochemical drilling.

Electromagnetic Target Areas
Historic airborne electromagnetic data (Time Domain Electromagnetic Survey) was reprocessed to produce a number of images. Figure 4 shows the Channel 10 survey data, which highlights the stratigraphy folding around the interpreted dome structure.
Maximum down-hole gold values appear to be associated with the northern arm of a conductive zone within the Punta Punta Formation. The southern arm has not been drilled and is considered a valid target for reconnaissance geochemical drilling.

Re-evaluation of Chicken Ranch Prospect
Gold mineralisation at the Chicken Ranch prospect (Figure 2) is associated with deeply oxidised sediments of the Punta Punta Formation and includes mineralised intercepts of up to 7m @ 13 grams per tonne including a maximum of 1m @ 52 grams per tonne. The potential for the Punta Punta Formation to host economic mineralisation is considered high as shown by the Fallows Field deposit southwest of Telfer Mine. The Fallows Field deposit is hosted by Punta Punta Formation and in the 1990’s Newcrest defined a mineral resource and mined approximately 50,000 ounces of gold.
Quantum considers a re-evaluation of the potential of the Chicken Ranch prospect to host economic mineralisation is warranted. This work was undertaken during the year with compilation and validation of existing drilling data.
TANAMI (OFFICER HILLS JV) PROJECT
(Quantum 100%, Newmont Option to earn up to 75%)
The Officer Hill JV Project is located within the Tanami geological province, which hosts world class orogenic gold deposits including the Granites gold deposits and the operating Callie Gold Mine owned by Newmont

Quantum Resources Limited Directors’ Report
Mining (Figure 1). The Company holds a single Exploration Licence located 34 kilometres southwest of the Callie Gold Mine, which at the end of 2013 had 3.01 million ounces of gold reserves. The licence was granted on 29 July 2013 for a period of six years.
The project is prospective for gold mineralisation with historical drilling intercepts of 4 metres @ 4.64 g/t, multiple intervals of 1-4 g/t, and several wide intercepts of 0.1-1 g/t.
The project is being managed by Newmont under joint venture with the Company. Newmont are earning a 75% interest by spending $500,000 within three years. Under the terms of the agreement Newmont must spend $100,000 within the first 12 months.
No field work was carried out during the year.

8. Financial results
Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income
As an exploration company, Quantum does not have an ongoing source of revenue. Its revenue stream is normally from ad-hoc tenement disposals, sale of fixed assets and interest received on cash in bank.
In the current year, revenue has decreased from $380,009 in 2014 to nil in 2015. During 2014, debt owing by the Company amounting to $380,009 was forgiven which was treated as revenue.
Costs and expenses have decreased from $1,091,045 in 2014 to $168,463 in 2015. Exploration expenditure provided for or written off amounted to $1,329,619 in 2014 compared to $96,720 in 2015, as a result of a reduction in the write-down of non-prospective tenement interests and exploration expenditure incurred. Administration expenses decreased from $141,405 in 2014 to $71,634 in 2015, primarily due to decreased employee costs. Finance expense was $30 in 2014 compared to $109 in 2015.
As a result, the Company made a net loss after tax of $168,463 in 2015 compared to a net loss after tax of $1,091,045 in 2014.
Statement of Financial Position
At 30 June 2015, the Company had cash at bank of $8,946 (2014: $3,253).
During the year, the Company decreased its receivables and other current assets from $546 to nil and capitalized exploration expenditure decreased by $84,942 to nil which is a result of exploration expenditure of $96,720 being written-off. At 30 June 2015, the Company had total liabilities of $402,393.
9 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Directors’ Report
As a result, the Company had, at 30 June 2015, negative working capital of $393,447 (negative working capital 2014: ($114,526) and net liabilities of $393,447 (2014: $279,584).
Cash Flow
During the year, the Company paid $53,246 (2014: $55,677) for operating activities; paid $11,778 (2014: received $1,065) for investing activities with the key components payments for exploration expenditure of $11,778 (2014: $27,935); and received $70,717 (2014: 54,600) for financing activities being proceeds from borrowings.
9. Significant Change in State of Affairs
In the opinion of the Directors there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company that occurred during the financial year under review not otherwise disclosed in this report or the accompanying financial report.
10. Key Business Strategies for FY2016
As shareholders are aware, the Company has recently undergone organisational changes at Board and management levels with the appointment of new Directors and officers.
The Company has raised $936,909 under a rights issue. The funds raised under the rights issue will be applied to meet Quantum’s working capital requirements, and to enable the newly comprised Board to execute its growth and restructure strategy.
Following shareholder approval of all the resolutions proposed at the Company’s Extraordinary General Meeting on 21 September 2015, a consolidation of the Company’s share capital is now complete.
In the 2016 financial year, the Board will seek to achieve growth by way of strategic acquisitions, and continues to actively review suitable business opportunities for Quantum in order to create value for its shareholders, and looks forward to providing further updates to shareholders as and when appropriate. The Board also intends to undertake an assessment of the Company’s current operations and assets. The key objective of this review will be to ascertain the extent of any changes required to improve the performance of the Company and ensure that Quantum is in a position to maximize or realise value from those assets.
11. Key Business Risks
A number of specific risk factors that may impact the business strategies, future performance and financial position of Quantum are described below. It is not possible to identify every risk that could affect Quantum’s business, and whilst the Company implements risk mitigation measures to the extent possible, actions taken by the Company to mitigate the risks described below cannot provide absolute assurance that a risk will not materialise.
-
(a) Title risks and Native Title – The Company’s exploration projects are primarily governed by Statebased legislation and are evidenced by the granting of exploration licences. Each exploration licence is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Quantum may lose title to its interest in tenements if licence conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet expenditure commitments. It is also possible that, in relation to tenements which Quantum has an interest in or will in the future acquire such an interest, there may be areas over which legitimate native title rights exist. If native title rights do exist, the ability of Quantum to gain access to tenements (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations, may be adversely affected.
-
(b) Resource and Reserve estimates – There is a risk that the mineral resources and ore reserves of Quantum, which are estimated and published in accordance with ASX Listing Rules and the JORC Code, are incorrect. If those estimates are materially in excess of the recoverable mineral content of the tenements, the production and financial performance of Quantum would be adversely affected.
10 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Directors’ Report
-
(c) Discovery risk – Any discovery by Quantum may not be commercially viable or recoverable: that is no resources within the meaning of the JORC Code may be able to be established and it may be that consequently no reserves can be established.
-
(d) Operating risk – The nature of exploration, mining and mineral processing involves hazards which could result in Quantum incurring uninsured losses and liabilities to third parties, for example arising from pollution, environmental damage or other damage, injury or death. These could include rock falls, flooding, unfavourable ground conditions or seismic activity, ore grades being lower than expected and the physical or metallurgical characteristics of the ore being less amenable to mining or treatment than expected.
12. Events subsequent to balance date
The following events occurred in relation to Quantum subsequent to the end of the financial year:
-
In August 2015, Mr Patrick Volpe resigned as Company Secretary of Quantum, and Ms Alyn Tai was appointed Company Secretary.
-
In August 2015, the Company changed its registered office address to Level 1, 61 Spring Street, Melbourne.
-
In August, Quantum entered into binding share subscription agreements with a number of sophisticated investors to raise $104,267 through the issue of 80,205,482 ordinary shares at $0.0013 per ordinary share ( Placement ).
-
On 21 August 2015, Quantum announced that it would undertake a pro-rata non-renounceable rights issue on a 1-for-1 basis at an offer price of $0.001 ( Offer ). The Offer closed on 9 September 2015, with the result that shareholders applied for a total of 245,401,895 shares under the rights issue, and Quantum raised $245,402 as a result.
-
Following the close of the rights issue Offer, there remained a shortfall of 691,506,805 shares which were not applied for during the Offer period ( Shortfall Shares ). In accordance with its stated intention in the Company’s rights issue Offer Document, on 24 September 2015 the Board successfully placed the Shortfall Shares to a range of investors. The Shortfall Shares were placed at the Offer price of $0.001 per share, to raise a total of $691,507, bringing the total funds raised by Quantum under the rights issue to $936,909 (less costs of the Offer). The funds raised under the rights issue will be applied to meet Quantum’s working capital requirements, and to enable the Board to execute its growth and restructure strategy.
-
On 21 September 2015, the Company held an Extraordinary General Meeting to propose a number of resolutions to shareholders, including the consolidation of the Company’s share capital, through the conversion of every thirteen fully paid ordinary shares on issue as at the record date of 25 September 2015 into one share ( Consolidation ). The Consolidation and all other resolutions were approved at the Extraordinary General Meeting, and the Consolidation was completed effective 28 September 2015. Following the Consolidation, the Company now has 144,139,826 fully paid ordinary shares on issue.
Other than as otherwise disclosed, in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report, no item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature has arisen that is likely, in the opinion of the Directors, to affect significantly, the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years.
13. Dividends
The Directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend and no amount has been paid or declared by way of dividend since the end of the previous financial year and up to the date of this Annual Report.
11 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Directors’ Report
14. Future Developments and Results
There are no likely developments of which the Directors are aware which could be expected to significantly affect the results of the Company’s operations in subsequent financial years not otherwise disclosed in this Annual Report.
As shareholders are aware, subsequent to the end of the financial year, the Company has undergone organisational changes at Board and management levels; these changes have been implemented with the objective of better positioning the Company and its newly comprised Board to address its strategy of identifying suitable business opportunities for Quantum in order to create value for its shareholders. The Board looks forward to providing further updates to shareholders as and when appropriate.
15. Options
At the date of this Report, the Company has no options over fully paid ordinary shares on issue.
During the year and up to the date of this Report, no options have been issued, no options have been exercised and during the year no options have lapsed.
16. Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Auditors
During the financial year, the Company paid a premium in respect of a contract insuring the Directors of the Company, the Company Secretary and all executive officers of the Company and of any related body corporate against a liability incurred as a Director, Secretary or executive officer to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium.
The Company has not otherwise, during or since the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify an officer or auditor of the Company or of any related body corporate against a liability incurred as an officer or auditor.
The insurance premiums relate to:
-
Cost and expenses incurred by the relevant officers in defending proceedings, whether civil or criminal and whatever their outcome; and
-
Other liabilities that may arise from their position, with the exception of conduct involving a wilful breach of duty or improper use of information or position to gain a personal advantage.
This does not include such liabilities that arise from conduct involving a wilful breach of duty by the officers or the improper use by the officers of their position or of information to gain advantage for themselves or someone else or to cause detriment to the company.
17. Environmental Regulation and Performance
The exploration activities of the Company are conducted in accordance with and controlled principally by Australian state and territory government legislation. The Company has exploration land holdings in Western Australia and Northern Territory. The Company employs a system for reporting environmental incidents, establishing and communicating accountability, and rating environmental performance. During the year data on environmental performance was reported as part of the monthly exploration reporting regime. In addition, as required under various state and territory legislation, procedures are in place to ensure that the relevant authorities are notified prior to the commencement of ground disturbing exploration activities.
The Company is committed to minimising the impact of its activities on the surrounding environment at the same time aiming to maximise the social, environmental and economic returns for the local community. To this end, the environment is a key consideration in our exploration activities and during the rehabilitation of disturbed areas. Generally rehabilitation occurs immediately following the completion of a particular phase of
12 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Directors’ Report
exploration. In addition, the Company continues to develop and maintain mutually beneficial relationships with the local communities affected by its activities.
18. Auditor Independence and Non-Audit Services
The auditor’s independence declaration is included on page 19 of this Annual Report.
19. Non-Audit Services
There were no non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor.
20. Proceedings on Behalf of the Company
No person has applied for leave of a Court to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company or intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or any part of those proceedings. The Company was not a party to any such proceedings during the year.
21. Remuneration Committee
The Board has not established a formal remuneration committee, having regard to the size of the Company and its operations. The Board acknowledges that when the size and nature of the Company warrants the necessity of a formal remuneration committee, such a committee will operate under a remuneration committee charter to be approved by the Board. Presently, the Board as a whole, excluding any relevant affected director, serves as a nomination committee to the Company.
22. Remuneration Report - Audited
This Remuneration Report, which forms part of the Directors’ Report, sets out information about the remuneration of Quantum’s directors and its key management personnel for the financial year ended 30 June 2015. The prescribed details for each person covered by this report are detailed below under the following headings:
(i) Overview of Remuneration Policies
Key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, including Directors of the Company and other Executives.
Remuneration levels for Directors of the Company are competitively set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced Directors.
The remuneration structures explained below are designed to attract suitably qualified candidates, reward the achievement of strategic objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders. The remuneration structures take into account:
-
the capability and experience of the Directors;
-
the Directors’ ability to control the Company’s performance;
-
the Company’s performance including:
-
the Company’s earnings.
-
the growth in share price and returns on shareholder wealth.
13 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Directors’ Report
The Company’s financial performance during the current year and over the past four years has been as follows:
| 2015 | 2014 | 2013 | 2012 | 2011 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $ | $ | $ | $ | $ | |
| Revenue | - | 380,009 | - | 10 | 11,160 |
| Net loss | (168,463) | (1,091,045) | (216,439) | (404,413) | (161,224) |
| Basic loss per share (cents) | (0.0002) | (0.13) | (0.03) | (0.05) | (0.02) |
| Diluted loss per share (cents) | (0,0002) | (0.13) | (0.03) | (0.05) | (0.02) |
| Net assets/(deficiency) | (393,447) | (279,584) | 811,461 | 1,027,900 | 1,432,313 |
The Directors do not believe the financial or share price performance of the Company is an accurate measure when considering remuneration structures as the Company is in the mineral exploration industry. Companies in this industry do not have an ongoing source of revenue, as revenue is normally from ad-hoc transactions.
The more appropriate measure is the identification of exploration targets, identification and/or increase of mineral resources and reserves and the ultimate conversion of the Company from explorer status to mining status.
(ii) Details of Directors, Executives and Remuneration
The names of the key management personnel in office during the year are as follows:-
-
M Gutnik – Chairman and Managing Director from 29 September 2014

Quantum Resources Limited Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015
1. Summary of significant accounting policies
Quantum Resources Limited (the ‘Company’) is a company domiciled in Australia. The financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2015 comprise the Company only and have not been consolidated with any other entity. The principal accounting policies adopted in preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented, unless otherwise stated.
The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 30 September 2015.
(a) 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.
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 or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
(b) Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. The financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards and interpretations as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’).
Historical Cost Convention
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis
Going concern
The Company had incurred a loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2015 of $168,463 and had net cash outflows from operating and investing activities of $65,024. As at 30 June 2015 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $8,946 and was in a net asset deficiency position of $393,447. The Board intends to undertake an assessment of the Company’s current operations and assets including seeking to achieve growth by way of strategic acquisitions of suitable business opportunities. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company 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:
-
In August, the Company entered into binding share subscription agreements with a number of sophisticated investors to raise $104,267 through the issue of 80,205,482 ordinary shares at $0.0013 per ordinary share ( Placement ). The Placement was completed on 11 August 2015.
-
On 21 August 2015, the Company announced that it would undertake a pro-rata nonrenounceable rights issue on a 1-for-1 basis at an offer price of $0.001 ( Offer ). The Offer closed on 9 September 2015, with the result that shareholders applied for a total of 245,401,895 shares under the rights issue raising $245,402.
24 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015
-
Following the close of the rights issue Offer, there remained a shortfall of 691,506,805 shares which were not applied for during the Offer period ( Shortfall Shares ). In accordance with its stated intention in the Company’s rights issue Offer Document, on 24 September 2015 the Board successfully placed the Shortfall Shares to a range of investors. The Shortfall Shares were placed at the Offer price of $0.001 per share, to raise a total of $691,507, bringing the total funds raised by Quantum under the rights issue to $936,909 (less costs of the Offer).
-
The Directors have prepared budgets which demonstrate that, based on the above factors the Company has sufficient funds available to meet its commitments for at least twelve months from the date of signing this report.
-
The key objective of the Board’s review the Company’s operations and assets is to ascertain the extent of any changes required to improve the performance of the Company and ensure that the Company is in a position to maximize or realise value from those assets.
-
The Board is confident of raising further capital through equity if necessary.
Should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial statements. 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.
Functional and presentation currency
These financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AASBs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed 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 year are discussed below.
Exploration and evaluation
Note 1(i) contains information about the assumptions and risk factors relating to exploration, evaluation and development expenditure impairment.
(c) Revenue
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.
Interest revenue
Interest is brought to account as income over the term of each financial instrument on an effective interest basis.
25 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015
(d) Income tax
The income tax expense or benefit for the year is the tax payable on the current year’s taxable income based on the income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment for prior periods, where applicable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for when the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting nor taxable profits. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date and expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.
(e) Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included with other receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.
(f) Impairment of assets
Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash generating units.
(g) Cash and cash equivalents
For Statement of Cash Flow presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
26 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015
(h) Trade receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly.
(i) Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure
Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure, including costs of acquisition in relation to separate areas of interest for which rights of tenure are current, are brought to account in the year in which they are incurred and are carried at cost.
The exploration expenditure will be carried forward as an asset where:
-
(i) it is expected that the expenditure will be recovered through the successful development and exploitation of an area of interest or by its sale; or
-
(ii) exploration activities are continuing in an area and activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable estimate of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves.
Where a project or an area of interest has been abandoned, the expenditure incurred thereon is written off in the year in which the decision is made.
Where there has been a decision to proceed with development, accumulated expenditure is amortised over the life of the associated resource once mining operations commence.
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.
The key points that are considered in this review include:
-
planned drilling programs.
-
environmental issues that may impact the underlying tenements.
-
the estimated market value of assets at the review date.
Information used in the review process is rigorously tested to externally available information as appropriate.
(j) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing operating loss attributable to the owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.
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.
27 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015
(k) Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
(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) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
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 2015. The Company's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the Company, are set out below.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments , AASB 2009-11 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 and AASB 2010-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010)
This standard and its consequential amendments are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. AASB 9 includes requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets and was further amended by AASB 2010-7 to reflect amendments to accounting for financial liabilities. These requirements aim to improve and simplify the approach for classification and measurement of financial assets compared with the requirements of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement . The Company does not expect that this standard will have a significant impact on its financial statements.
2. Segment Reporting
Operating segment information is disclosed on the same basis as information used for internal reporting purposes by the Board of Directors. At regular intervals, the board is provided management information for the Company’s cash position, the carrying values of exploration permits and Company cash forecast for the next twelve months of operation. On this basis, no segment information is included in these financial statements.
All operating revenue has been derived in Australia. All exploration and evaluation assets are held in Australia.

14. Commitments
Exploration expenditure
The Company has to perform minimum exploration work and expend minimum amounts of money on its tenements. The overall expenditure requirement tends to be limited in the normal course of the Company’s tenement portfolio management through expenditure exemption approvals and expenditure reductions through relinquishment of parts or the whole of tenements deemed non prospective. Should the Company wish to preserve interest in its current tenements the amount which may be required to be expended is as follows:
| Due within one year Due later than one year and not later than five years Due later than five years |
2015 $ 2014 $ |
|---|---|
| 69,369 55,761 325,977 371,035 7,331 7,331 |
|
| 402,677 434,127 |
15. Financial instruments
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects of the financial performance of the entity.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.
The Company does not operate internationally and therefore its exposure to foreign exchange risk arising from currency exposures is limited. The Company is not exposed to equity security price risk and holds no equity investments. The Company is not exposed to commodity price risk as the Company is still carrying out exploration.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises from investment of cash at variable rates. The Company’s income and operating cash flows are not materially exposed to changes in market interest rates.
At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Company’s interest bearing financial instruments was:
| Variable rate instruments Cash and cash equivalents |
Carrying amount 2015 $ 2014 $ |
|---|---|
| 8,946 3,253 |

Quantum Resources Limited Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015
An increase of 100 basis points (decrease of 100 basis points) in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. The analysis was performed on the same basis for 2014. The following table summarises the sensitivity of the Company’s financial assets (cash) to interest rate risk:

|
| 3,253 33 (33) 33 (33) |
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.
The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents held with the bank and financial institutions and receivables due from other entities. For banks and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a minimum rating of ‘A’ are accepted.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amount of the financial asset. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:
| Cash and cash equivalents Receivables |

| - - 546 - |
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s liquidity risk arises from operational commitments. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities. Management aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by regularly reviewing cash requirements and monitoring forecast cash flows.
The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities:
| 30 June 2015 Financial liabilities Current Trade and other payables Other Liabilities Non-current Other payables |

250,000 |
Included within the carrying amount of trade and other payables at 30 June 2015 is $296,117 (2014: $nil) owed to shareholders.
Fair value
The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements represent their respective net fair value determined in accordance with the accounting policies
34 | P a g e
Quantum Resources Limited Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2015
referred to in note 1. Fair value approximates carrying value due to the short term nature of these instruments.
Capital management
The Company’s policy in relation to capital management is for management to regularly and consistently monitor future cash flows against expected expenditures for a rolling period of up to 12 months in advance. The Board determines the Company’s need for additional funding by way of either share placements or loan funds depending on market conditions at the time. Management defines working capital in such circumstances as its excess liquid funds over liabilities, and defines capital as being the ordinary share capital of the Company.
There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year.
The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
16. Key management personnel compensation
The aggregate compensation made to directors and other members of key management personnel compensation of the Company is set out below:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

Report on the Financial Report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Quantum Resources Limited, which comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2015, the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the 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 financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1(b), the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements , that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards .
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the company’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of Quantum Resources Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.

Opinion
In our opinion:
-
(a) the financial report of Quantum Resources Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(i) giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 30 June 2015 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 ; and
-
(b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1(b).
Emphasis of matter
Without modifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1(b) “Going Concern” in the financial report, which indicates that the ability of the company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the future successful raising of necessary funding through equity and that the Board intends to undertake an assessment of the company’s current operations and assets seeking to achieve growth by way of strategic acquisitions of suitable business opportunities. These conditions, along with other matters as set out in Note 1(b) “Going Concern,” indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the Company may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
Report on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 13 to 16 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2015. The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 . Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Quantum Resources Limited for the year ended 30 June 2015 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 .
