CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
EXPLORATION PROJECTS
Marlborough Project (109,000 hectares)
The Company and its joint venture partner, Australia Oriental Minerals NL (AOM), have two third-party joint ventures in the Marlborough Project. At Waitara, Midas Resources Ltd (Midas) has earned 51% in five tenements and, at Mount Mackenzie, Jeteld Pty Ltd (Jeteld) is earning 47% in two tenements. The remaining six tenements are held 60% by the Company and 40% by AOM.
The Mount Mackenzie joint venture is continuing to explore the Mount Mackenzie Prospect, where, at 30 June 2005. Jeteld Pty Ltd had contributed \$1,249,585 towards exploration. Jeteld did not complete its commitment to expend \$2.5 million by 1 August 2005 but has advised that it is willing to remain in the project. Negotiations are currently in progress with Jeteld and Australia Oriental Minerals NL regarding the funding of future exploration programs.
During the year, widely spaced deep drilling to the West of Mount Mackenzie has significantly enhanced the prospect with the discovery of a gold and base metal bearing breccia in the vicinity of a distinct magnetic low and porphyry-style alteration with anomalous copper values.
This prospect known as the "Instinct" prospect will be the focus of the next drilling program and provides two interesting targets: a mineralised breccia pipe with affinities to Mount Levshon and Kidston and a porphyry copper-gold (molybdenum) system.
At Waitara, Midas completed Sub Audio Magnetic (SAM) surveys and Reverse Circulation drilling over the "Vein 366" and "Mystery" prospects. Although results at these two prospects were inconclusive and disappointing, Midas considers that there is still ample opportunity to define an economic deposit in the "Hamilton Park" prospect. Midas has compared the project with the Cadia-Parkes region in New South Wales in terms of its geophysical and metallogenic character, and considers the area to be highly prospective for both bulk tonnage porphyry-style coppergold deposits and epithermal-style gold deposits.
Riversleigh Base Metals Project (78,000 hectares)
This project covers the "Grevillea" and "Grevillea West" zinc-lead-silver prospects. The Company's consultant, Flagstaff Geoconsultants Pty Ltd, advised that there is an interesting similarity in size and mineralogy between the Grevillea West deep conductor and the mineralised Macarthur River sub-basin.
These prospects have the potential to host a significant zinc-lead-silver deposit and the Company is seeking a new like-minded joint venture partner to participate in further exploration of "Grevillea West" and the various other base metal prospects on its extensive tenement holdings in the Lawn Hill region. A number of base metal explorers have expressed interest in this project.
VEHICLE ROUTE OPTIMISATION AND MOBILE DATA SUBSIDIARY
SmartTrans Limited marginally increased its revenue over the previous year and, whilst it still incurred a loss for the year, its business continues to expand.
The Company is continuing to build recurring income through the addition of major customers to those already using the Company's systems.
The integration of voice and data messaging services with the existing route optimisation system is being well received and is currently being implemented with significant businesses in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide.
Details of these systems and the benefits they provide to our customers can be seen on the Company's website www.smarttrans.com.au.
Although the directors are budgeting for this subsidiary to be profitable from and including the year ending 30 June $2006$ , on the basis of conservatism and prudence and in preparation for the introduction of the international financial reporting standards, the directors have elected to raise provisions against the holding company's loan to SmartTrans Ltd until the budgeted profit has been achieved.
My thanks go to our team of dedicated and loyal staff who have worked extremely hard during the year.
John Forsyth AM Chairman
30 September 2005

INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF
SMARTTRANS HOLDINGS LIMITED
Scope
The financial report and directors' responsibility
The financial report comprises the statement of financial position, statement of financial performance, statement of cash flows, accompanying notes to the financial statements and the directors' declaration for SmartTrans Holdings Limited (the Company) and the consolidated entity, for the year ended 30 June 2005. The consolidated entity comprises both the Company and the entities it controlled during that year.
The directors of the Company are responsible for preparing a financial report that gives a true and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001. This includes responsibility for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and internal controls that are designed to prevent and detect fraud and error, and for the accounting policies and accounting estimates inherent in the financial report.
Audit Approach
We conducted an independent audit of the financial report in order to express an opinion on it to the members of the Company. Our audit was conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, in order to provide reasonable assurance as to whether the financial report is free of material misstatement. The nature of an audit is influenced by factors such as the use of professional judgement, selective testing, the inherent limitations of internal control and the availability of persuasive rather than conclusive evidence. Therefore, an audit cannot guarantee that all material misstatements have been detected.
We performed procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including compliance with Accounting Standards in Australia and other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia, a view which is consistent with our understanding of the Company's and the consolidated entity's financial position and of their performance as represented by the results of their operations and cash flows.

We formed our audit opinion on the basis of these procedures, which included:-
- examining, on a test basis, information to provide evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the $\bullet$ financial report; and
- assessing the appropriateness of the accounting policies and disclosures used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors.
While we considered the effectiveness of management's internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our audit was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls.
We performed procedures to assess whether the substance of business transactions was accurately reflected in the financial report. These and our other procedures did not include consideration or judgement of the appropriateness or reasonableness of the business plans or strategies adopted by the directors and management of the Company,
Independence
We are independent of the Company and have met the independence requirements of Australian professional ethical pronouncements and the Corporations Act 2001. In addition to our audit of the financial report, we were engaged to undertake the services disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The provision of these services has not impaired our independence.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
The financial report covers the economic entity of SmartTrans Holdings Limited and controlled entities and SmartTrans Holdings Limited as an individual parent entity. SmartTrans Holdings Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs and does not take into account changing money values or, except where stated, current valuations of non-current assets. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the economic entity in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. $\label{eq:1} \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2}}\leq \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2}}\leq \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2}}\leq \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2}}\leq \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2}}\leq \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2+\left(\frac{1}{$
(a) Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial report incorporates the assets and liabilities of all entities controlled by SmartTrans Holdings Ltd as at 30 June 2005 and the results of its controlled entities for the year then ended, Control exists where SmartTrans Holdings Ltd has the capacity to dominate the decision making in relation to the financial and operating policies of another entity so that the other entity operates with SmartTrans Holdings Ltd to achieve the objectives of SmartTrans Holdings Ltd.
SmartTrans Holdings Ltd and its controlled entities together are referred to in this financial report as the economic entity. The effects of all inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the economic entity including any unrealised profits or losses have been eliminated in full.
Where controlled entities have entered or left the economic entity during the year, their operating results have been included from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased. Outside interests in the equity and results of the entities that are. controlled are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial report.
Outside interests in the equity and results of the entities that are controlled are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial report.

(b) Income tax
The economic entity adopts the liability method of tax effect accounting, whereby the income tax expense shown in Statement of Financial Performance is based on the operating profit before tax adjusted for any permanent differences.
Timing differences which arise due to the different accounting periods in which items of revenue and expense are included in the determination of accounting profit and taxable income are brought to account as either a provision for deferred income tax or as a future income tax benefit at the rate of income tax applicable to the period in which the benefit will be received or the liability will become payable.
Future income tax benefits relating to tax losses are not carried forward unless the benefit is virtually certain of realisation. Income tax on cumulative timing differences are set aside to the deferred income tax or the future income tax accounts at the rates which are expected to apply when those timing differences reverse.
(c) Recoverable amount of non-current assets
The carrying values of non current assets are recorded at their recoverable amounts, which are determined by reference to the present value of future net cash flows expected to be generated by those assets.
The present value of future net cash flows expected to be generated by the parent entity's investment in SmartTrans Ltd cannot be assessed with certainty as it is dependent upon a continuation of the successful development and commercialisation of the route optimisation and mobile data systems technology. Although the directors are budgeting for the business to be profitable from and including the year ending 30 June 2006, on the basis of conservatism and prudence and in preparation for the introduction of the international financial reporting standards next financial year, the directors have elected to raise provisions against the parent entity's investment in and loan to SmartTrans Ltd until the budgeted profit has been achieved.

(d) Property, plant and equipment
Each class of property, plant is equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation.
Depreciable non-current assets, other than freehold land, are depreciated over their expected useful lives to the economic entity using the straight line method. Estimates of remaining useful lives are made on a regular basis for all assets with annual reassessments for major items.
The expected useful lives are as follows: Buildings: 40 years Plant and equipment: 5 to 15 years
(e) Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure
Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. The expenditure relating to an area of interest is carried forward provided the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current, and provided further و الله المستقلة التي التي التي التي التي التي التي التي that either:-

(g) Intangibles
Goodwill and goodwill on consolidation are initially recorded at the amount by which the purchase price for a business or for a ownership interest in a controlled entity exceeds the fair value attributed to its net assets at date of acquisition. Both purchase goodwill and goodwill on consolidation are amortised on a straight line basis over the period of 20 years. The balances are reviewed annually and any balance representing future benefits for which the realisation is considered to be no longer probable are written off.
(h) Employee benefits
Provision is made for the Company's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits expected to be settled within one year together with benefits arising from wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave which will be settled after one year, have been measured at their nominal amount. Other employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.
Contributions are made by the economic entity to employee superannuation funds and are charged as expenses when incurred.
(i) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the operating loss after income tax attributable to members of SmartTrans Holdings Limited by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share by taking into account amounts unpaid on ordinary shares.
(i) Web site costs
Costs in relation to web sites controlled by a controlled entity are charged as expenses in the period in which they are incurred unless they relate to the acquisition of an asset, in which case they are capitalised and amortised over their period of expected benefit. Generally, costs in relation to feasibility studies during the planning phase of a web site, and ongoing cost of maintenance during the operating phase are considered to be expenses. Costs incurred in building or enhancing a web site, to the extent that they represent probable future economic benefits controlled by the controlled entity that can be reliably measured, are capitalised as an asset and amortised over the period of the expected benefits which vary from 2 to 5 years.

(k) Cash
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash includes deposits at call with banks or financial institutions which are readily convertible to cash on hand and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
(I) Comparative figures
Where required by Accounting Standards comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation for the current financial year.
(m) Revenue recognition
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers. Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers. Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. Dividends received from associate and joint venture entities are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
(n) 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 $GST$

NOTE 28 IMPACT OF ADOPTION OF AUSTRALIAN EQUIVALENTS TO INTERNATIONAL REPORTING STANDARDS
The company is currently preparing and managing the transition to Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) effective for the financial years commencing from I January 2005. The adoption of AIFRS will be reflected in the economic entity's and the parent entity's financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2006. On first time adoption of AIFRS, comparatives for the financial year ended 30 June 2005 are required to be restated. The majority of the AIFRS transitional adjustments will be made retrospectively against retained carnings at 1 July 2004
The economic entity's management has assessed the significance of the expected changes and is preparing for their implementation. The directors and management are overseeing and managing the economic entity's transition to AIFRS. The impact of the alternative treatments and elections under AASB 1: First Time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards has been considered where applicable.
The directors are of the opinion that the key material differences in the economic entity's accounting policies on conversion to AIFRS and the financial effect of these differences, where known, are as follows. Users of the financial statements should note, however, that the amounts disclosed could change if there are any amendments by standard-setters to the current AIFRS or interpretation of the AIFRS requirements changes from the s ar Christian Albert Christian Christian Christian Christian Christian Christian Christian Christian Christia

continuing work of the company's directors and management.
í Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure -
AASB 6: Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources, will require the Company to apply "area of interest" accounting to exploration and evaluation expenditures, effectively grandfathering the treatment currently used by the Company under AASB 1022: Accounting for Extractive Industries, Under AASB 6, if facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of any recognised exploration and evaluation assets may be impaired, the Company must perform impairment tests on those assets in accordance with AASB 136; Impairment of Assets. Impairment of exploration and evaluation assets is to be assessed at a cash generating unit or group of cash generating unit level provided this is no larger than an area of interest. Any impairment loss is to be recognised as an expense in accordance with AASB 136. k kalendar kalendar (* 1939)
20. december - Johann Barnett, beskriver franc
On transition, management does not expect any adjustments to exploration expenditure carried forward.

Registrag i Pregist
ìi Impairment of Assets
Under AASB 136: Impairment of Assets, the recoverable amount of an asset is determined as the higher of fair value less costs to sell, and value in use. In determining value in use, projected future cash flows are discounted using a risk adjusted pre-tax discount rate and impairment is assessed for the individual asset or at the 'cash generating unit' level. A 'cash generating unit' is determined as the smallest group of assets that generates cash flows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. The current policy is to determine the recoverable amount of an asset on the basis of undiscounted net cash (lows that will be received from the asset's use and subsequent disposal. It is likely that this change in accounting policy will lead to impairments being recognised more often.
- Dag
The directors and management has reassessed its impairment testing policy and tested all assets in the economic entity for impairment as at 1 July 2004 and 30 June 2005. No adjustments are required for the parent or economic entity.
iîi Non-current Investment
Under AASB 139: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, financial assets are required to be classified into four categories, which determines the accounting treatment of the item. The categories and various treatments are:
- * held to maturity, measured at amortised cost:
- * held for trading, measured at fair value with unrealised gains or losses charged to the profit and loss;
- *loans and receivables, measured at amortised cost; and
r.
Nati
* available for sale instruments, measured at fair value with unrealised gains or losses taken to equity.
The Company's financial assets comprise available for sale financial instruments. Under AASB 139, the measurement of available for sale instruments at fair value differs to current accounting policy which measures non-current investments at cost with an annual review by directors to ensure the carrying amounts are not in excess of the recoverable value of the instrument. The impact of the change is likely to increase the value of non-current other financial assets in relation to available for sale instruments.
AASB 1 provides an election whereby the requirements of AASB 139 dealing with financial instruments are not required to be applied to the first AIFRS comparative year, and the first time adoption of this standard will apply from 1 July 2005. The Company has decided that it will adopt this election and will not restate comparative information for the 30 June 2005 financial year
On transition, there is no expected financial impact on the parent or economic entity.
For the year ended 30 June 2005 (Cont.)
$\dot{W}$ Income Tax
Currently, the economic entity adopts the liability method of tax-effect accounting whereby the income tax expense is based on the accounting profit adjusted for any permanent differences. Timing differences are currently brought to account as either a provision for deferred income tax or future income tax benefit. Under AASB 112: Income Taxes, the entity will be required to adopt a balance sheet approach under which temporary differences are identified for each asset and liability rather than the effects of the timing and permanent differences between taxable income and accounting profit.
On transition, there is no expected financial impact on the parent or economic entity,
