LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholder,

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present you with the 2015 Annual Report.

The last year has seen considerable progress in our company’s development; with exponential progression of projects and the further strengthening of our world-class technical team.

Our exploration efforts have primarily been focused at our flagship Roe Hills Project located close to the world class nickel mining and processing centre of Kambalda in the Eastern Goldfields Province of Western Australia. During this period we have conducted a significant amount of exploration activity utilising state of the art technologies employed by the combined expertise of our leading technical team. The calibre of our team has ensured a methodical and scientific approach to our exploration activities that has contributed to the high-quality and exciting results achieved to date. The collective belief from all stakeholders contributing to the exploration efforts at Roe Hills is underpinned by their willingness to participate alongside shareholders through equity for services.

Our strategy has been to maintain a counter-cyclical approach and continue full exploration efforts with a view to returning ultimate value to shareholders by making a discovery in line with the next upward commodity price cycle. This Corporate mission has been widely supported by strategic investors demonstrating the value in maintaining a long term view in line with our goals. The Board is focused on ensuring we implement a clear and efficient deployment of capital over the next period and will take full advantage of the cost reduction in services.

On behalf of the board I extend our gratitude to the small yet highly effective team for their untiring efforts throughout the year. We recognise the support from all shareholders and continue to work towards rewarding all with a major discovery in the near future.

Review of Operations

MPJ is exploring the Roe Hills Project area for Kambalda Style - Komatiite/Ultramafic Hosted primary and structurally re-mobilised high grade massive nickel sulphide mineralisation.

The Project comprises 3 Granted Exploration Licenses & 2 Pending Exploration Licenses for 324km² and secures a 40km strike length of highly prospective terrain comprising at least 5 separate ultramafic belts . Structural repetition of the sequence via folding and faulting is interpreted to have significantly increased the amount of prospective ultramafic contact available to explore.

Low to medium grade disseminated and higher grade matrix and narrow massive nickel sulphides have been identified in previous work at the Talc Lake, Roe1 and Roe2 Prospects confirming the fertility of the sequence .

Historical exploration was sporadic, predominantly gold focused, and directed towards relatively limited areas of outcrop, ie Talc Lake, Roe1. The remainder of the target sequences occur beneath a veneer of residual and transported cover of variable thickness and remain under-explored. Below a vertical depth of 150m, the entire project is essentially unexplored.

During the period MPJ completed an extensive multi-disciplinary exploration campaign comprising historical data evaluation, detailed geological field mapping, high powered surface and downhole electrical geophysical surveys and RC percussion/diamond drilling.

This work has been designed to test for extensions/repetitions of known mineralisation and to unlock the potential of the broader Roe Hills Project.

Review of Operations

Key elements of the Company’s exploration activities at Roe Hills during the financial year included:

  • Diamond drilling at Talc Lake to test for extensions to known mineralisation

  • Diamond drilling at ROE1 to test for depth extensions to regolith geochemical anomalism

  • Commencement of first pass drill evaluation of coincident nickel/copper/PGE anomalism over the newly identified Hooton Prospect immediately north of Talc Lake

  • Diamond drilling to test for depth extensions to surface gossans, historical nickel intercepts and MLEM conductors at Point Perchance

  • Diamond drilling to test for strike/depth extensions to historical intercept at ROE2

  • Continued regional high powered MLEM geophysical surveys over the Talc lake, Hooton, Point Perchance, ROE1 and ROE2 Prospects

  • Completion of detailed field mapping at the Talc Lake, Hooton and Point Perchance Prospects

  • Ongoing evaluation of the historical geological/geochemical/geophysical/drilling database

Geophysics

The Company’s geophysical programs continued to be managed by Newexco and comprised ongoing regional surface MLEM geophysical survey ing designed to test the central corridor at the Talc Lake, Hooton, Point Perchance, ROE1 and ROE2 Prospects; follow up FLEM surveying and DHEM surveying of all recently completed drill holes. By the end of the period MLEM totalled 1,520 stations on 99 lines for a total survey of 143,700m (143.7 line km). Follow up Fixed Loop EM (FLEM) surveys totalled 231 stations for 7.7 line km. DHEM surveys were completed on 20 holes.

The MLEM survey successfully identified 18 high priority conductors situated within geologically favourable positions, 7 of which are defined as Category 1 and are currently being assessed for immediate follow up. Some of these will require Fixed Loop EM (FLEM) surveys to better define the targets prior to commencing drill testing (Figures 4, 5 and 6).

Review of Operations

Geological Field Mapping and Petrological Evaluation

Consultant Geologist and Nickel Sulphide Specialist Sarah Dowling (Triodia Research) completed the initial phase of detailed mapping across the Talc Lake, Hooton and Point Perchance Prospects.

The mapping augments historical work undertaken by previous explorers including Newmont (late 1960’s) and Western Mining Corporation (early 1990’s) allowing an interpretation of the geology in relation to accepted modern geological models.

Importantly it will enable the development of an understanding of the setting and controls on the known mineralisation at Talc Lake and ultimately the implementation of more effective exploration methodologies across the broader Roe Hills Project.

Significantly, the presence of extensive sequences of high MgO ultramafic rocks was unequivocally confirmed along the western flanks of the main sequence at Talc Lake and in association with BIF units within a regionally continuous parallel belt some 2-5km’s further to the west. These units are concealed beneath at least 25m of residual/transported soil and have not been drilled by previous explorers. The discovery substantially increases the prospectivity of the Project and future assessment is planned.

A review of all available drill cores including petrological evaluation has commenced in order to characterise the ultramafic stratigraphy and sulphide mineralogy and to confirm the younging directions of each ultramafic flow unit within what may be fold repeated sequences.

Of particular significance has been the identification of specific textures in the ultramafic rocks traversed by several historical holes at Talc Lake which are known to occur proximal to depositional sites for massive nickel sulphides at other known nickel sulphide deposits, eg Silver Swan (Photo 1).

Detailed mapping will continue throughout the Project tenure to elevate the geological understanding of all prospects and assist the ongoing exploration effort.

Key Prospects

Talc Lake Prospect

The Talc Lake area consists of thick sequences of talc – carbonate (magnesite) altered ultramafics after high MgO protoliths interpreted to represent channel facies ultramafics. Thickening of the sequence may have resulted from folding and faulting whilst apparent structural complexity may be attributed in-part to de-magnetisation associated with talc-carbonate alteration events. Other rock types include pyroxenites, basalts and sedimentary units. The footwall to the ultramafic sequence varies from basaltic to a felsic volcanosediment whose absence in-part may be explained by the process of thermomechanical erosion by the overlying ultramafics. The sequence is intruded by numerous dolerite dykes.

The potential of the prospect to host significant nickel sulphide mineralisation has been confirmed by the identification of surface gossans and both disseminated and narrow massive nickel sulphides in numerous historical holes.

Significantly, the majority of the intercepts achieved to date occur in hangingwall and/or flanking positions whilst the interpreted primary basal contact positions remain essentially untested.

Recently completed detailed MLEM geophysical surveys have identified numerous conductors considered worthy of follow-up drill testing. These represent high priority targets which will be further assessed and refined prior to re-commencing drilling. Figures 7 and 8 present a schematic cross-sections and Figure 9 represents a vertical longitudinal projection.

ROE1 Prospect

ROE1 Prospect (Figures 1-4 and Figure 6) is characterised by low lying ridges and hills of outcropping mafic and ultramafic rocks, locally derived colluvium and a variably developed veneer of transported overburden. The area comprises serpentinised and silicified ultramafic rocks, pyroxenites, basalts and minor sedimentary units. The ultramafics are predominantly high MgO mesocumulate to adcumulate textured dunites and represent the thickest accumulations of ultramafic rock types currently recognised within the Project area. The sequence is intruded by numerous dolerite and quartz feldspar porphyry dykes. Granite intrusives occur at the northern margin of the main prospect area and may highlight a potential target zone for remobilised mineralisation.

ROE1 was first identified by WMC in the mid 1990’s, as a coherent geochemical anomaly over a strike length of 500 metres, up to 40 metres wide with peak values occurring centrally within the ultramafic sequence. Nickel anomalism is also associated with copper oxide (malachite) mineralisation at surface and within the oxidised near-surface rocks. Wide spaced drilling by previous explorers targeted the peak of the internal anomaly without effectively testing basal ultramafic contacts.

It is now considered that the geochemical Ni-Cu anomaly represents a hydromorphic dispersion halo developed along the Base of Oxidation/Top of Fresh Rock (BOX/TOFR) interface and potentially sourced from an as yet undiscovered accumulation of nickel sulphides located at depth below and down-plunge from the current level of drill testing (Figure 10: Schematic Cross–Section).

Work completed at ROE1 during the reporting period includes:

  • Detailed assessment of the historical geochemical database by Dr Nigel Brand,

  • Diamond drill testing of depth/plunge extensions to regolith geochemical anomalism (RHDD000912)

  • Detailed high powered MLEM geophysical surveys

  • DHEM surveys of all recently completed drill holes (RHDD0009-12)

Diamond drilling at Roe1 successfully identified a broad zone of near basal contact related disseminated nickel sulphide mineralisation in hole RHDD0012 as follows:

  • RHDD0012: 4.24m @ 0.4% Ni from 340.1m (Incl. 1.3m @ 0.6% Ni)₁₂

MLEM Survey

Recently completed MLEM survey at Roe1 (Figure 6) has successfully identified 4 strong conductors (Table 5) situated in geological favourable positions (Figures 10 and 11).

==> picture [313 x 95] intentionally omitted <==

Table 5: ROE1 MLEM Priority Conductors₂

  • ROE_C1: possibly been tested up dip by historical drill hole ROE1 (WMC). This hole intersected mafic hosted semi-massive sulphides in the interpreted hanging wall of the main ultramafic complex which returned 600-800ppm copper. Further work is required to understand its geological context as it appears to be structurally related rather than stratigraphically hosted.

  • ROE_C2, ROE_C2b & ROE_C3: untested and sit favourably within the Company’s geological model (Figure 10 and Figure 11).

Newexco reported the following regarding the Roe 1 MLEM results:

These conductive results are considered Category 1 anomalies and are consistent with a bedrock sulphide source. ROE_C1 is highly likely to have been tested up-dip by historic drilling, however ROE_C2 and ROE_C3 are untested Category 1 anomalies ”.

A recent geological and structural review of the area has identified the presence of a series of previously unrecognised shallow east dipping thrust faults which have off-set the main ultramafic sequence towards the east (Figure 11).

This setting is similar to that of a number of other Western Australian Nickel Sulphide occurrences including WSA’s Flying Fox/Lounge Lizard Deposits and highlights the potential for Roe 1 to host both primary basal contact related and structurally re-mobilised massive Nickel Sulphides.

ROE2 Prospect

The ROE2 prospect is located 5km to the south of ROE1 and was first identified by WMC in the mid 90’s. The prospect is defined by historical drill hole ROE2 which intersected basal contact hosted disseminated nickel sulphides as follows:

  • ROE2: 8.6m @ 0.45% Ni, 0.2% Cu₁

The targeted ultramafic stratigraphy in this area is completely obscured by transported lake sediments of variable thickness.

During the year MPJ has completed a single diamond drill hole RHDD0022 for a total metreage of 424m, (Figures 12 & 13).

The hole was designed to test for strike/plunge extensions 250m to the south of historical diamond drill hole ROE2 which returned 8.6m at 0.45% nickel, 2000ppm copper from 241.4m depth on what is now

Review of Operations

interpreted to be a “sediment free outer flank” contact position. It was also positioned to test a prominent embayment identified in detailed aeromagnetic imagery (Figure 13).

RHDD0022 traversed a sequence comprising of at least 5 separate ultramafic units separated by basalts with doleritic, felsic porphyry and pegmatite intrusives (Figure 14).

Whilst trace amounts of disseminated sulphides were observed in most ultramafics, fine grained heavily disseminated nickeliferous sulphides were encountered over approximately 23 metres in the uppermost ultramafic between about 104.4m and 127.4m down hole depth.

Final assays returned the following:

  • RHDD0022: 11m @ 0.45% Ni, 0.24% Cu, from 113m depth₁

This result is highly encouraging and represents a significant stage in the Company’s ongoing exploration efforts at ROE2 (Figures 12 & 14).

Newexco are continuing with regional MLEM & DHEM geophysical surveys.

Hooton Prospect

Centred some 5km’s north along strike from Talc Lake the Hooton Prospect is defined by a historical drill hole (JodoEx, hole ID unknown, approx. location 459,900mE, 6,539,500mN MGA), which reported an oxide zone intercept of 3m @ 1.7% Nickel and 0.28% Copper from 28m depth.

During the year seven holes (RHDD0013-RHDD0019 inclusive) were completed at the Hooton Prospect for 2,200.4m (Figure 3 and 5).

Holes RHDD0013-14 and RHDD0016-19 were drilled to provide wide spaced testing of shallow RAB/aircore Ni, Cu, PGE geochemical anomalism associated with the “Western Ultramafic Belt” (Western Belt) at the Hooton Prospect and to establish DHEM geophysical platforms to guide further drill targeting. All holes reported trace amounts of weakly disseminated nickel sulphides providing confirmation of the fertility of the sequence.

Hole RHDD0015 was drilled to test historical near surface aircore Ni, Cu, PGE geochemical anomalism associated with a discrete magnetic high within what is now described as the “Central Ultramafic Belt” (Central Belt) at the Hooton Prospect. The Central Belt can be traced in aeromagnetic imagery beneath transported cover over a strike length of at least 5 kilometres at Hooton with hole RHDD0015 being the first effective test of the sequence.

RHDD0015 intersected a thick sequence of high MgO ultramafic rocks hosting patchy cloud\disseminated and blebby Nickel Sulphides over a drilled interval of approximately 130 metres (70 -200m downhole depth) (Figure 15).

Spot handheld XRF results provided initial confirmation of the presence of nickeliferous sulphides with values ranging from 0.5% nickel to 3.2% nickel (Photos 2 and 3).

Page 22 of 88

Review of Operations

Final assays reflect the patchy distribution of the mineralisation and include the following intercepts:

  • 2.7 metres grading 0.38% Ni; 303ppm Cu from 77.3m to 80.0m down-hole₄

  • 30.0 metres grading 0.24% Ni; 209ppm Cu from 85 to 115 metres down-hole₄

  • 8.0 metres grading 0.24% Ni; 178ppm Cu from 152 to 160 metres down-hole₄

  • 6.5 metres grading 0.25% Ni; 342ppm Cu from 186 to 192.5 metres down-hole₄

  • 0.4 metres grading 0.34% Ni; 975ppm Cu from 200.3 to 200.7 metres down-hole, and₄

  • 0.4 metres grading 0.77% Ni; 1700ppm Cu from 211.4 metres to 211.8 metres down-hole₄

The mineralisation intersected in hole RHDD0015 is interpreted to represent cloud sulphides developed proximal to a main lava channel feature situated at depth below the hole (down-dip/plunge).

Cloud sulphide zones such as that intersected in RHDD0015 are typically found in close association with accumulations of higher grade massive nickel sulphides as evidenced by the majority of the known Nickel Sulphide Deposits in WA, eg Kambalda, Forrestania, Black Swan, Cosmos, Leinster.

Photo’s 2 and 3: Disseminated and Blebby Nickel Sulphides hole RHDD0015

Point Perchance

The Point Perchance prospect is located 5km along strike to the north of Hooton and is defined by historical drill hole PP1 (Figure 5). This hole returned a basal contact hosted disseminated nickel sulphide intercept as follows:

  • PP1: 1.83m at 0.4% Ni, 638ppm Cu from 56.7m depth

During the year 2 diamond drill holes (RHDD0020 and RHDD0021) were completed at Point Perchance for a total combined metreage of 758.8 metres (Figures 2, 3, and 5).

  • RHDD0020 was designed to test MLEM conductor RHC13, sulphidic shales were encountered stratigraphically beneath a weakly mineralised ultramafic sequence at the approximate modelled target depth.

  • RHDD0021 was designed to test for depth extensions to disseminated mineralisation identified at a basal ultramafic contact in historical diamond drill hole PP1. Disseminated sulphides were identified over some 10m from approximately 172m depth in close proximity to a basal ultramafic contact whilst sulphidic shales were encountered at the approximate modelled target position of the MLEM conductor (Figure 16).

DHEM is ongoing to determine if the targeted conductors have been identified and whether additional conductors related to nearby mineralisation may be present.

Numerous additional historical RAB/aircore holes in the area report supporting regolith Ni pathfinder geochemical anomalism at shallow depths spatially coincident with high priority MLEM conductors.

Fraser Range East Project

MPJ’s Fraser Range East Project comprises 2 exploration licenses totalling 601.4km². The project geology potentially represents strike extensions to the sequences which host the Nova/Bollinger Nickel/copper deposits located approximately 70km to the North West. The area remains largely unexplored utilising modern techniques (Figure 17).

==> picture [455 x 199] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [455 x 198] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 17: Fraser Range Project over Regional.

During the year an initial exploration programme of Moving Loop Electromagnetic survey MLEM programme highlighted in Figures 18 was undertaken during May 2014 at the Fraser Range Project. A total of 94 stations were observed along 7 profiles (Figure 18 and 19) encompassing a total of 18.2 line kilometres.

A broad anomaly has been recorded in the mid-time response of the three westernmost lines (Figure 18 and 19). The anomalous response was recorded over a strike-length of 800 m although it should be noted that the anomaly is open in both directions. The large wavelength of the anomaly suggests the source is laterally extensive.

Best modelling results were achieved using three plate models with low to moderate conductance to represent the source. A reasonable fit to observed data can also be achieved using a single plate. A

Review of Operations

single best modelled result gives a plate that has a shallow dip to the west and gentle plunge to the north. The three plates were used to account for variations within the unit along strike.

The plates are modelling at a depth of between 50-70m depth and the source of the anomaly is unclear as it may be related to conductive overburden or shallow bedrock responses. Newexco have noted that more geological information could improve and constrain the interpretation.

Dingo Range Tenements

The Dingo Range Tenements include four mineral tenures comprising a total area of 326.8km². The tenements border the Rox Resource’s Mt Fisher Project that includes the Camelwood & Musket Nickel Deposits with a combined resource of 3.6Mt @ 2% Ni for 72,100 nickel tonnes (ASX:RXL, 4[th] September 2014, “Rox Increases Nickel Sulphide Resources Over 100%” ), (Figure 20 and 21).

Figure 21. Dingo Range Tenements Over Regional Magnetics

The first stage Moving Loop Electromagnetic survey MLEM and follow-up Fixed Loop Electromagnetic (FLEM) survey programme highlighted in Figure 22 was carried out at the Dingo Range Project during June 2014. A total of 438 stations were observed along 34 profiles encompassing a total of 39.4 line kilometres. Due to time constraints the MMI soil sampling was not completed.

The MLEM data covers 12 kilometres of strike along variably magnetic source rocks which are presently interpreted to indicate the presence of volcanic, possibly mafic/ultramafic rock beneath pervasive cover. The MLEM indicates that the cover conditions increase in either thickness or conductivity to the northwest.

Central to the survey a number of weak anomalous responses have been identified. The FLEM survey on line 7053500mN covers the strongest of these which confirmed the presence of locally strong conductive cover. Modelling accurately constrained the source to surface as represented by a blue plate in Figure 22.

==> picture [37 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

Further weak anomalous responses were identified proximal to this source, which remain to be followed- up. However, further geological information is required to put these sources in context. The presence of conductive cover warrants a follow up drill programme to establish the depth of cover, bedrock geology and determine the effectiveness of the MLEM survey.

Other than the matters listed above, no other matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the reporting period which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Consolidated Entity, the result of those operations or the state of affairs of the Consolidated Entity in subsequent financial years.

Likely Developments and Expected Results of Operations

The likely developments in the Consolidated Entity’s operations, to the extent that such matters can be commented upon, are covered in the Review of Operations contained elsewhere in this Annual Report. In the opinion of the Directors, disclosure of information regarding the expected results of those operations in financial years after the current financial year is not predictable at this stage. Accordingly, this information has not been included in this Report.

Review and Results of Operations

The Consolidated Entity’s net loss after income tax for the financial year was $1,447,470 (2014: $2,585,273). The Review of Operations provides further details regarding the progress made by the Consolidated Entity since the prior financial year, which has contributed to its results for the year.

Environmental Regulations

The Consolidated Entity holds participating interests in a number of exploration licences. The various authorities granting such licences require the holder to comply with directions given to it under the terms of the grant of the licence.

The Board is not aware of any breaches of the Consolidated Entity’s licence conditions.

Remuneration Report (Audited)

The information provided under Sections A to F includes remuneration disclosures that are required under Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures.

The information in this report has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001 .

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each Director and Key Management Personnel of the Consolidated Entity.

The Directors and Key Management Personnel of the Consolidated Entity during the year were:

Mr Joshua Wellisch Managing Director (Appointed 28[th] March 2013) Mr Angus Edgar Non-Executive Director (Resigned 21[st] November 2014) Mr Dehong Yu Non-Executive Director (Appointed 15[th] July 2013) Mr Neil Hutchison Non-Executive Director (Appointed 15[th] April 2014) Mr Adrien Wing Company Secretary (Appointed 2[nd] October 2013)

Section A: Principles used to determine the nature and amount of Remuneration

Remuneration Governance

The remuneration of all Executive and Non-Executive Directors, Officers and Employees of the Consolidated Entity is determined by the Remuneration Committee, whose responsibilities are addressed by the Board as a whole.

The Consolidated Entity is committed to remunerating Senior Executives and Executive Directors in a manner that is market-competitive and consistent with "Best Practice" including the interests of Shareholders. Remuneration packages are based on fixed and variable components, determined by the Executives' position, experience and performance, and may be satisfied via cash or equity.

Non-Executive Directors are remunerated out of the aggregate amount approved by Shareholders and at a level that is consistent with industry standards. Non-Executive Directors do not receive performance based bonuses and prior Shareholder approval is required to participate in any issue of equity. No retirement benefits are payable other than statutory superannuation, if applicable.

Voting at the Company’s 26 November 2014 Annual General Meeting (“AGM”)

The Company received 99.74% of “for” votes in relation to its remuneration report for the year ended 30 June 2014.

Remuneration Policy versus Consolidated Entity Financial Performance

Over the past 5 years the Consolidated Entity has continued to acquire and maintain many participating interests in mining projects and companies that Directors believe have the potential to provide ongoing benefits to Shareholders. This is represented by the Consolidated Entity’s interests in public and private companies, and direct participation in mining projects and joint ventures.

Some of the Consolidated Entity’s investments have been realised over the past years and have provided trading profits and cash in-flows to fund ongoing activities. A number of projects and joint ventures are not at a stage where production or positive cash flows have been established, which may affect the Consolidated Entity’s current performance and shareholder wealth.

The Consolidated Entity’s earnings in the past 5 years have remained negative which is due to the nature of the Consolidated Entity as an early stage mining Company. Shareholder wealth reflects this speculative and volatile market sector. No dividends have ever been declared by the Consolidated Entity.

Directors’ Report

The earnings of the consolidated entity for the five years to 30 June 2015:

Loss financial year ended 2015 ($1,447,470)
Loss financial year ended 2014 ($2,585,273)
Loss financial year ended 2013 ($5,263,314)
Loss financial year ended 2012 ($2,971,131)
Loss financial year ended 2011 ($1,500,202)

Factors that are considered to affect total shareholder return are summarised below:

2015 2014 2013 2012 2011
Share price at financial year end ($A) 0.008 0.005 0.004 0.009 0.023
Basic earnings per share (cents per share) (0.11) (0.11) (1.57) (2.90) (2.07)

Directors have been compensated for work undertaken and the responsibilities assumed in being Directors of this Consolidated Entity based on industry practice, as opposed to the Consolidated Entity’s performance which is difficult to ascertain given the nature of the activities undertaken, as described above.

Performance Based Remuneration

The purpose of a performance bonus is to reward individual performance in line with the Consolidated Entity’s objectives. Consequently, performance based remuneration is paid to an individual where the individual's performance clearly contributes to a successful outcome for the Consolidated Entity. This is regularly measured in respect of performance against key performance indicators (KPI's).

The Consolidated Entity uses a variety of KPI's to determine achievement, depending on the role of the executive being assessed, these include successful contract negotiations. No performance based remuneration was granted during the reporting period (2014: $ nil).

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Year Ended 30 June 2015

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PREPARATION

Corporate Information

The financial report of Mining Projects Group Limited (the Consolidated Entity) for the year ended 30 June 2015 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 30th September 2015.

Mining Projects Group Limited is a listed public company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX:MPJ). The financial report covers the Consolidated Entity of Mining Projects Group Limited and controlled entities.

The principal activity of the Company is resource exploration and investments.

Basis of Preparation

The financial report is a general-purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standards, as appropriate for profit orientated entities. The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs. The financial report is presented in Australian dollars.

Management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Significant estimates and assumptions made by management in preparation of these financial statements are;

  • Share based payment transactions

  • The company measures the cost of the share-based payments at fair value at the grant date using the Black-Sholes formula after taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted (see note 16)

  • Exploration and evaluation costs

  • Exploration and evaluation costs have been capitalised on the basis that the consolidated entity will commence commercial production in the future, from which time the costs will be amortised in proportion to the depletion of the mineral resources. Key judgements are applied in considering costs to be capitalised which includes determining expenditures directly related to these activities and allocating overheads between those that are expensed and capitalised. In addition, costs are only capitalised that are expected to be recovered either through successful development or sale of the relevant mining interest. Factors that could impact the future commercial production at the mine include the level of reserves and resources, future technology changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes and changes in commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised costs are determined not to be recoverable in the future, they will be written off in the period in which this determination is made.

Judgements made by management in the application of Australian Accounting Standards that have significant effects on the financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustments in the next year are disclosed, where applicable, in the relevant notes to the financial statements.

Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions or other events are reported.

Going concern

The Consolidated Entity incurred a net loss after income tax of $1,447,470 for the year ended 30 June 2015 and had net cash outflows from operating and investing activities of $2,193,043. At 30 June 2015, the Consolidated Entity had cash and cash equivalents of $1,313,920 and had working capital, being current assets less current liabilities, of $446,623.

On 20 August 2015, the Company completed a strategic share placement of 200 million fully paid ordinary shares to sophisticated investors at a price of 0.6 cents per share, raising $1.2 million before costs. Based on planned and committed expenditure, the company will need to raise additional capital within the next 12 months to fund its activities. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the entity to continue as a going concern. The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business at the amounts stated in the financial report, for the following reasons:

Page 48 of 88

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Year Ended 30 June 2015

  • The budgets and forecasts reviewed by the directors for a period of 12 months from the date of signing the financial report anticipate the business will hold cash and cash equivalents to fund its operations and exploration commitments. The ability of the Consolidated Entity to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the future successful raising of necessary funding through equity.

  • Management will actively manage discretionary and exploration expenditures in line with the funds available.

  • Should additional funding be required the Consolidated Entity may attempt future equity capital raising initiatives, however it should be noted that while this source of funding has been used in the past, any future capital raising would be dependent on financial market conditions at the time that any additional equity funds are being sought.

Based on the above, the directors are satisfied adequate plans are in place and that the Consolidated Entity will have sufficient sources of funding to meet its obligations and anticipated expenditure through to 30 September 2016 (12 months from date of audit report). On this basis the financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis.

Should the Consolidated Entity be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.

Statement of Compliance

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards as issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

New and amendments standards adopted by the Group

All required new and amending Standards have been adopted from 1 July 2014. Adoption of these Standards did not have any effect on the financial position or performance of the Consolidated Entity. All other accounting policies adopted by the Consolidated Entity are consistent with the most recent Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2014.

The following Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and therefore have not been adopted by the Consolidated Entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2015:

AASB 9 Financial Instruments and its consequential amendments
This standard and its consequential amendments are applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after
1 January 2017 and completes phases I and III of the IASB's project to replace IAS 39 (AASB 139) 'Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement'. This standard introduces new classification and measurement
models for financial assets, using a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at
amortised cost or fair value. The accounting for financial liabilities continues to be classified and measured in
accordance with AASB 139, with one exception, being that the portion of a change of fair value relating to the
entity's own credit risk is to be presented in other comprehensive income unless it would create an accounting
mismatch. Chapter 6 'Hedge Accounting' supersedes the general hedge accounting requirements in AASB 139 and
provides a new simpler approach to hedge accounting that is intended to more closely align with risk
management activities undertaken by entities when hedging financial and non-financial risks. The consolidated
entity will adopt this standard and the amendments from 1 July 2017 but the impact of its adoption is yet to be
assessed by the consolidated entity.

Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Consolidated Entity in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

a) Principles of Consolidation

A controlled entity is any entity controlled by Mining Projects Group Limited. Control exists when the Company 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 Mining Projects Group Limited to achieve the objectives of Mining Projects Group Limited.

A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 12 to the financial statements. All of the controlled entities have a June financial year-end.

All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the Consolidated Entity, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those policies applied by the parent entity.

Where controlled entities have entered or left the Consolidated Entity during the year, their operating results have been included from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased.

b) Income Tax

The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit or loss for the year adjusted for any non-assessable or non-deductible items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted as at the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the Consolidated Entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.

The tax Consolidated Entity has entered a tax funding arrangement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable by the group in proportion to their contribution of the group’s income tax. Differences between the amounts of net tax assets and liabilities derecognised and the net amounts recognised pursuant to the funding arrangement are recognised as either a contribution by, or distribution to the parent entity.

c) Plant and Equipment

Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows which will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the Consolidated Entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

Page 50 of 88

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Year Ended 30 June 2015

Class of Fixed Asset

Depreciation Rate

Plant and equipment 20% to 33%

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

d) Exploration and Development Expenditure

Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.

Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.

When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.

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 costs of restoration obligations are provided for in full at the time of the activities which give rise to the need of restoration. Restoration costs include reclamation, site closure and monitoring of those activities, and are based on undiscounted prospective current cost estimates which satisfy anticipated legal requirements. Estimates of future costs are measured at least annually.

Where part of a joint venture is farmed out in consideration of the farminee undertaking to incur further expenditure on behalf of both the farminee and the entity in the joint venture area of interest, exploration expenditure incurred and carried forward prior to farmout continues to be carried forward without adjustment, unless the terms of the farmout are excessive based on the diluted interest retained. A decision is then made to reduce exploration expenditure to its recoverable amount.

e) Financial Assets

Recognition and initial measurement

Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the Consolidated Entity commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset.

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified at fair value through profit and loss, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.

Classification and subsequent measurement

Finance instruments are subsequently measured at either fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, or at cost. Fair value represents the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties. Where available quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted.

Amortised costs are calculated as:

  • i) the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition;

  • ii) less principle repayments;

  • iii) plus or minus the cumulative amortisation of the difference, if any, between the amount initially recognised and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest rate method; and

  • iv) less any reduction for impairment.

The effective interest rate method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payment or receipts (including fees, transaction costs,

Page 51 of 88

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Year Ended 30 June 2015

and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability.

Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

The Consolidated Entity does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss

A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term, or if so designated by management and the asset falls within the requirements of AASB139: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of these assets are included in the profit and loss in the period in which they arise.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting date which are classified as non-current assets. They are measured and held at amortised cost.

Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Group’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. If the Group were to sell other than an insignificant amount of held-to-maturity financial assets the whole category would be tainted and reclassified as available-for-sale. They are included in non-current assets, except for those with maturities less than 12 months from the reporting date, which are classified as current assets.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available for sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be classified into other categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are taken directly to equity.

De-recognition

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised or derecognised on trade-date - the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the profit and loss. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in equity are included in the profit and loss as gains or losses from investment securities.

Fair value

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments at reporting dates. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arms-length transactions, reference to similar instruments, discounted cash flow analysis, and option pricing models making maximum use of market inputs and relying as little as possible on entity-specific inputs.

Impairment

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit and loss.

Page 52 of 88

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Year Ended 30 June 2015

f) Impairment of Assets

At each reporting date, the Consolidated Entity reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the assets carrying value. Any excess of the assets carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the profit and loss.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Consolidated Entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

g) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the Consolidated Entity’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity's functional and presentation currency.

Transaction and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the profit and loss, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the profit and loss.

Group companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Consolidated Entity’s presentation currency are translated as follows:

  • assets and liabilities are translated at the year-end exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date;

  • income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period; and

  • retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the foreign currency translation reserve via other comprehensive income. The cumulative amount of these differences are recycled in profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed.

h) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.

i) Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to 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.

Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customer.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

Page 53 of 88

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Year Ended 30 June 2015

j) Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible debts. An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written-off as incurred.

Receivables from related parties are recognised and carried at the nominal amount due. Interest is taken up as income on an accrual basis.

k) Trade and other payables

Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Consolidated Entity.

Payables to related parties are carried at the principal amount. Interest, when charged by the lender is recognised as an expense on an accruals basis.

l) Share capital

Ordinary share capital is recognised as the fair value of the consideration received by the Consolidated Entity.

Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.

m) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the net profit/(loss) for the period by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year. Where a net loss is made for the period, basic earnings per share and dilutive earnings per share are the same, because, the inclusion of options in the earnings per share calculation does not result in future dilution.

n) Goods and services tax (GST)

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 Taxation 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.

o) Interests in Joint Ventures

Where the Consolidated Entity is a venturer and so has joint control in a jointly controlled operation, the Consolidated Entity recognises the assets that it controls and the liabilities that it incurs, along with the expenses that it incurs and the Consolidated Entity’s share of the income that it earns from the sale of the goods or services by the joint venture.

Profits or losses on transactions establishing the joint venture partnership and transactions with the joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the group’s ownership interest until such time as they are realised by the joint venture partnership on consumption or sale. However, a loss on the transaction is recognised immediately if the loss provides evidence of a reduction in the net realisable value of current assets, or an impairment loss.

p) Investment in subsidiaries

Investments in subsidiaries are carried at the lower of cost of acquisition or at their recoverable amount in the Consolidated Entity's financial statements.

q) Operating segments

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments and assessing their performance.

r) Parent entity information

In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the result of the consolidated entity only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 22.

NOTE 4: INCOME TAX EXPENSE (CONT.)

The benefit of tax losses and timing differences will only be achieved if:

  • (i) the Consolidated Entity derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit from the deductions for the losses to be realised; and

  • (ii) the losses are transferred to an eligible entity in the Consolidated Entity; and

  • (iii) the Consolidated Entity continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by tax legislation; and (iv) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Consolidated Entity in realising the benefit from the deductions for the losses.

  • ** These carry forward tax losses are gross tax losses from prior financial years amounting to $20,648,532. These losses are subject to further review by the consolidated entities to determine if they satisfy the necessary legislative requirements under the income tax legislation for the carry-forward and recoupment of tax losses. Included in tax losses are transferred losses into the tax Consolidated Entity relating to the years from 2000 to 2002.

Additionally, a deferred tax asset has not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable that future profit will be available against which the Consolidated Entity can utilise the benefits.

Mining Projects Group Limited is the head entity in the tax Consolidated Entity.

The share options outstanding at the end of the year had a weighted average exercise price of $0.02, and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 1.77 years.

NOTE 17: CONTINGENT ASSETS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Mabo Decision

The decision of the High Court of Australia in June 1992 in Mabo and Others v The State of Queensland (no. 2) (1992) 175 CLR 1 recognised traditional native title rights of Aboriginal Australians to land in certain circumstances. As a consequence of the Mabo decision the Federal Parliament enacted the Native Title Act 1993. The Mabo decision and subsequent native title claims have resulted in uncertainties concerning the security of title to interests in land, including exploration and mining tenements on an Australia-wide basis.

The Company and controlled entities hold tenements in Western Australia and Queensland. Some of these tenements may be subject to native title claims. Because of the uncertainties described above, the granting of exploration rights and ultimately mining from those tenements will depend on the outcome of the Native Title Claims and/or current negotiations by the Company.

The full impact of the consequences of the Mabo decision cannot be determined, but may in the future include:

  • Tenements being made subject to conditions relating to native title

  • Delays in the granting of new tenements or for renewals or extensions of existing tenements

  • Claims for recognition of native title or for compensation by persons claiming native title

Other than as disclosed above the Consolidated Entity is not involved in any legal or arbitration proceedings nor, so far as the Directors are aware, of such proceedings pending or threatened against the Consolidated Entity.

NOTE 18: OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the management team in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.

The operating segments are identified by management based on the manner in which the expenses are incurred and resources allocated. Discrete financial information about each of these operating segments is reported to the board on a regular basis.

The reportable segments are based on aggregated operating segments determined by similarity of expenses, where expenses in the reportable segments exceed 10% of the total expenses for either the current and/or previous reporting period.

Operating segments

  • Investments - The Consolidated Entity invests in a portfolio of listed investments for short term gains and liquidity purposes, and in unlisted equities for the purpose of long-term results.

  • Exploration - The Consolidated Entity invests in exploration activities in areas of interest in order to identify mineral deposits for exploitation through sale of rights or mining activities.

  • Corporate - The Corporate business segment consists of the Board of Directors and the costs of the Consolidated Entity communications and reporting. Share based payments have been included in this segment.

The company owns interests in exploration assets and financial assets that are based in Australia.

Segments are reported before tax. Tax is reflected in corporate expenditure.

Details of significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis for measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and other financial assets are represented at their fair values determined in accordance with the accounting policies disclosed in Note 1.

d) Capital Risk Management

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to maximise shareholder value. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Company may issue new shares or reduce its capital, subject to the provisions of the Company's constitution.

The capital structure of the Company consists of equity attributed to equity holders of the Company, comprising issued capital and accumulated losses.

e) Financial Risk Management

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risks via the cash and cash equivalents that it holds. Interest rate risk is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The objective of managing interest rate risk is to minimise the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in interest rates that might impact its interest revenue and cash flow.

Cash at bank balances of $1,313,920 (2014: $146,208) are subject to interest rate risk, being held in accounts with floating interest rates. There is no other exposure to interest rate risk.

The Consolidated Entity has conducted a sensitivity analysis of the Consolidated Entity's exposure to interest rate risk. The analysis shows that if the Consolidated Entity's interest rate was to fluctuate as disclosed below and all other variables had remained constant, then the interest rate sensitivity impact on the Consolidated Entity's loss after tax and equity would be as follows:

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk via the equity investments in foreign entities that it holds. Foreign currency risk is the risk that the value of the financial investment will fluctuate due to changes in the foreign exchange rates. The Company does not have a policy to hedge overseas payments or receivables as they are infrequent.

The following financial assets and liabilities are subject to foreign currency risk:

30 June 2015 30 June 2014
$ $
Cash and cash equivalents (AUD/CAD) - -
Financial Assets held for trading (AUD/CAD) 9,287 37,250

The Consolidated Entity has significantly reduced its investments outside of Australia, which previously exposed it to transactional currency movements. The Consolidated Entity is currently only exposed to fluctuations in Canadian dollars, meaning there is very minimal impact on the entity.

Credit Risk

The Consolidated Entity is exposed to credit risk via its cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Company. To reduce risk exposure for the Company's cash and cash equivalents, it places them with high credit quality financial institutions.

The Company has analysed its trade and other receivables below. All trade and other receivables disclosed below have not been impaired.

Receivables past due and impaired are $nil (2014: $nil). All other receivables past due are not considered impaired. Management believe that these receivables are recoverable and are satisfied that payment will be received in full. The ageing of the group’s trade receivables at reporting date:

Liquidity Risk

The Company is exposed to liquidity risk via its trade and other payables. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet the commitments associated with its financial instruments. Responsibility for liquidity risk rests with the Board who manage liquidity risk by monitoring the Company’s undiscounted cash flow forecasts to ensure the Company is able to meet its debts as and when they fall due.

Contracts are not entered into unless the Board believes that there is sufficient cash flow to fund the activity. The Board considers when reviewing its undiscounted cash flows forecasts whether the Company needs to raise additional funding from the equity markets.

f) Net Fair Value

The net fair values of listed investments have been valued at the quoted market bid price at balance date adjusted for transaction costs expected to be incurred. For unlisted investments where there is no organised financial market, assets are carried at lower of cost or recoverable amount based on a reasonable estimation of the underlying net assets or discounted cash flows of the investment. Aggregate net fair values and carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities at balance date is as follows:

h) Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the statement of financial position have been analysed and classified using a fair value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.

The fair value hierarchy consists of the following levels:

  • quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1);

  • inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (Level 2); and

  • inputs for asset or liability values that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3). Level 3 is applied to available for sale financial assets that are considered to be impaired.
