RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Group’s total comprehensive loss after taxation attributable to the members of PolarX Limited for the half-year ended 31 December 2017 was $687,778 (2016: $182,908).

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Alaska Range Project, Alaska USA

During the half-year ended 31 December 2017, the Company significantly expanded its highly prospective footprint in Alaska by acquiring 100% of the issued capital of Vista Minerals Pty Ltd ( Vista Acquisition ), which holds a 100% interest in the Stellar Copper Gold Project ( Stellar Property ).

Subsequent to the Vista Acquisition, PolarX’s focus has been on the exploration and development of its newly named Alaska Range Project which contains both the Caribou Dome Copper Project ( Caribou Dome Property ) and the new Stellar Property (refer Figure 1). The combined Alaska Range Project now comprises 417 State mineral claims covering a total area of ~243km[2] , which follows the staking of an additional 104 State Mining Claims during the reporting period. Collectively these claims now form a contiguous package with ~35km strike length containing extensive copper and goldin-soil anomalism, with significant upside potential for resource extensions and larger porphyry copper-gold discoveries.

Stellar Property

The Stellar Property contains five main prospects: the Zackly Cu-Au skarn; the Jupiter, Mars and Gemini porphyry CuAu-Mo targets, and the Au-only Moonwalk Prospect. Prior to the Vista Acquisition, Zackly was the only prospect to have been tested by drilling, undertaken between 1981 and 1994. This drilling identified a mineralized skarn with average grades of 2.9% Cu and 4.51g/t Au along a strike-length of ~800m. PolarX identified the opportunity to significantly increase the strike length of the mineralisation through further drilling.

Zackly C-Au Skarn

During the reporting period a program of thirteen drill holes, for a total of 2,054m, were drilled at Zackly. Preliminary assays have been received for seven of the thirteen holes (see Figure 2 and table below).

* Thickness of mineralisation reported is down-hole thickness. There is insufficient interpretation of the mineralisation to confidently report “true widths”. It is however noted that the mineralized lenses appear to be relatively steeply dipping. As such it is probable that “true widths” will be smaller than the down-hole widths by approximately 50% (depends on hole dip).

Key observations to date from the 2017 Zackly exploration program include:

  • Mineralisation occurred in two distinct phases:

  • An initial mineralising event occurred when a diorite intrusion formed marbles and weakly mineralised skarns in the adjacent silty-limestones and volcanic rocks, and introduced disseminated Fe, Cu and Mo sulphides.

  • A stronger mineralising event in which widespread garnetiferous skarns containing clots, veines and disseminations of bornite, covellite, magnetite, chalcopyrite and native copper overprinted the earlier mineralisation (Figure 3).

PolarX Limited

4

Operations Report

  • The drilling results to date highlight that the best mineralisation in the skarn generally occurs in the stratigraphically upper part of the skarn body near the faulted contact with the limestone, indicating stratigraphic and structural control to the mineralisation.

  • The presence of porphyry style veins overprinting potassic alteration containing K-feldspar and secondary biotite and sub-vertical hydrothermal breccias provide evidence for the possible presence of a buried porphyritic intrusion.

  • Mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth.

PolarX’s drilled intersections are in a number of cases wider than those recorded in the early 1980’s.

Following review of the remaining conventional assay results, along with the results from the selected samples sent for re-assaying using screen fire assay techniques, the Company will finalise its maiden JORC mineral resource estimate for Zackly. This is scheduled for publication in March 2018.

Further drilling is also being planned for 2018 to establish the potential scale and commercial extent of this mineralised system at Zackly, and to assess the deeper porphyry potential.

Mars Cu-Au Target

The Mars prospect lies 6km to the WNW of the Zackly Skarn. Geological evidence indicates a WNW structural corridor extending between Mars and Zackly (Figure 4). This potentially hosts multiple buried porphyry Cu-Au systems.

Operations Report

The Mars prospect is characterised by co-incident copper, gold, molybdenum and silver anomalism in broadly spaced soil samples over a large area of approximately 2,000m x 1,500m. Up to 7.4% Cu and 1.8g/t Au is evident in rock-chip samples.

PolarX conducted an initial IP survey over the Mars prospect in late August 2017. Three lines of data and one short tie line were collected using a pole-dipole array with 100m spaced electrodes. The IP results (Figure 5) show a buried chargeability anomaly located 100-150m below the surface geochemical anomalism. This is consistent with a buried, mineralised porphyry Cu-Au system.

==> picture [360 x 259] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 5: Mars Prospect showing IP chargeability anomaly directly below soil geochemistry results and rock-chip sampling copper assays.

The full extent of the chargeability anomaly is not yet known as the anomalism extends to the edge of the 800m wide survey area which lies within the 2km long soil anomaly – further IP surveying will be undertaken to map out the full extent of the IP anomaly and together with, gravity surveys and re-processing of aeromagnetic data, will lead to a drill campaign on the prospect.

Senator Cu Target

The Senator copper prospect, which forms part of the Caribou Dome Property, was discovered through a soil sampling program undertaken by the Company in 2016. This highlighted an area covering approximately 5km x 2.5km with elevated copper in soils (>100ppm Cu) and sporadic outcrop. Site visits undertaken during 2017 highlighted the potential of this area having identified intense iron alteration (jarosite and hematite) and the presence of copper oxides on fracture surfaces.

Five lines of IP data were read across the Senator copper anomaly in August 2017 for a total of 6.35km using 50m electrode spacing. Final pseudo-sections and inverted data were delivered to the Company in mid-October 2017. Results will be reported once the data has been analysed and interpreted by the Company’s consulting geophysicist.

Caribou Dome Deposit

During 2017 detailed geological mapping and structural interpretation of outcrop and drill core at the high-grade Caribou Dome Cu deposit was undertaken. This work will aid understanding the structural influences and geometry of the known mineralisation and will be used to assist in planning extensional drilling at the Caribou Dome Deposit.

PolarX Limited

6

Operations Report

A small program of metallurgical test-work on mineralised samples from the Caribou Dome deposit commenced in the last quarter of 2017. This program will use the remaining 20kg of mineralised material from Lens 6 of Caribou Dome (the largest mineralised lens) to determine if copper selectivity can be increased through the use of different collectors which are selective against pyrite along with trailing several pyrite and carbon depressants. Results are expected in the next quarter.

Environmental Baseline Surveys

Environmental baseline studies to monitor surface and ground water at the Caribou Dome and Zackly deposits for future mine permitting purposes commenced during the period and included a reconnaissance level wetlands survey over Zackly and collection of initial water samples from a number of baseline monitoring stations at Zackly and Caribou Dome.

Uncle Sam Gold Project, Alaska USA

The Uncle Sam Project is located 75 kilometres southeast of the City of Fairbanks in Alaska. Intrusion-related gold has been targeted in previous exploration programs.

The Company acquired the Uncle Sam Project in April 2013 from Millrock. Subsequently in July 2015, the Company entered into a mineral lease and purchase agreement with Great American Minerals Exploration Inc. ( GAME ), pursuant to which GAME agreed to lease the Uncle Sam Project for 10 years with an option to purchase the property at any time during the lease period (refer Note 29 to the 2017 Annual Financial Report for key terms).

During the reporting period the Company received noticed from the Department of Natural Resources (State of Alaska) that the mineral claims which comprise the Uncle Sam Gold Project had been declared abandoned ( DNR Notice ). The basis for the decision was an error on the affidavit of labor filed by the previous tenement owner in 2011. As a result, GAME has sought to terminate the Option Agreement .

The Company is currently reviewing its options in relation to this matter, including whether GAME has complied with its obligations under the Option Agreement, but notes that the Uncle Sam Gold Project:

  • is considered a non-core asset and had a $nil carrying value in the Company’s financial statements at the time of receipt of the DNR Notice; and

  • is independent of the Company’s Alaska Range Project.

AUDITOR’S DECLARATION

Section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 requires the Group’s auditors to provide the Directors of PolarX with an Independence Declaration in relation to the review of the half-year financial report. A copy of that declaration is included at page 28 of this report. There were no non-audit services provided by the Company’s auditor for the half-year ended 31 December 2017.

Signed on behalf of the board in accordance with a resolution of the Directors.

Condensed notes to the financial statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2017

PolarX Limited

1. Corporate Information

The financial report of PolarX Limited ( PolarX or the Company ) and its subsidiaries (the Group ) for the half-year ended 31 December 2017 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 7 March 2018.

On 7 August 2017, the Company completed a 1 for 5 security consolidation ( Consolidation ) and on 15 September 2017 it changed its name to PolarX Limited (formerly Coventry Resources Limited).

PolarX Limited is an Australian public company limited by shares and which is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange.

The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ report.

2. Going Concern

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

For the half-year ended 31 December 2017, the Group incurred a loss of $684,627 (2016: $402,724) and incurred net cash inflows of $1,385,742 (2016: outflows of $1,606,200). At 31 December 2017, the Group had net current assets of $1,652,328 (30 June 2017: net current liabilities of $142,329).

The Group’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon it maintaining sufficient funds for its operations and commitments. The Directors continue to be focused on meeting the Group’s business objectives and is mindful of the funding requirements to meet these objectives. The Directors consider the basis of going concern to be appropriate for the following reasons:

  • given the Company’s market capitalisation and the underlying prospects for the Group to raise further funds from the capital markets; and

  • the fact that future exploration and evaluation expenditure are generally discretionary in nature (i.e. at the discretion of the Directors having regard to an assessment of the Group’s eligible expenditure to date and the timing and quantum of its remaining earn-in expenditure requirements). Subject to meeting certain minimum expenditure commitments, further exploration activities may be slowed or suspended as part of the management of the Group’s working capital.

The Directors are confident that the Group can continue as a going concern and as such are of the opinion that the financial report has been appropriately prepared on a going concern basis. However, should the Group be unable to raise further required financing, there is uncertainty which may cast doubt as to whether or not the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts nor to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.

4. Acquisition

On 23 May 2016, the Company announced it had entered into agreements that provided it the right to acquire an 100% interest in the Stellar Copper Gold Project ( Stellar Property ) via the acquisition of Vista Minerals Pty Ltd ( Vista ) (the Vista Transaction ), subject to shareholder approval and certain closing conditions. On 30 June 2017, the Company’s shareholders approved the Vista Transaction and it was completed on 26 July 2017.

Pursuant to the Vista Transaction, PolarX issued 91,964,430 (post-Consolidation basis) fully paid ordinary shares ( Shares ) to Vista’s shareholders, being the consideration for the acquisition of 100% of the issued capital of Vista. Concurrently, the Company completed a private placement ( Placement ) pursuant to which 54,950,000 shares were issued at $0.10 per Share (post-Consolidation basis) for gross proceeds of $5.495 million.

The Company has accounted for the Vista Transaction as a business combination and has identified and recognized the individual identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The purchase price was allocated to the individual identifiable assets and liabilities on the basis of their fair values at the date of purchase. Consideration consisted entirely of shares of the Company which were measured at the fair value of the PolarX Shares issued using quoted price per share. The fair value of the 91,964,430 Shares issued to Vista’s shareholders to complete the Vista Transaction was $9,196,426.

The fair value of net assets at the Vista Transaction date is as follows:

The Directors’ assessment of the carrying amount for the Group’s exploration and development expenditure was after consideration of prevailing market conditions; previous expenditure for exploration work carried out; and the potential for mineralisation based on the Group’s independent geological reports. The recoverability of the carrying amount of the deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively the sale, of the respective areas of interest.

9. Convertible note

On 29 April 2017, the Company entered into a convertible note deed (the Note ) with Vista ( Noteholder ) to borrow up to $200,000. Under the terms of the Note, the funds could be withdrawn on the “liquidity date”, which was the date the Company’s consolidated cash position was at or below $50,000. On 14 June 2017, the Company borrowed $100,000 pursuant to the Note, which was repayable within twelve months. Interest accrued on the balance at 8% per annum. At 30 June 2017, there was accrued interest of $351 and a loss on the change in the fair value of the convertible note of $8,512.

The Noteholder had the option to convert the outstanding balance and accrued interest into shares of the Company. Upon issue of a conversion notice, the Noteholder is entitled to receive that number of shares equal to the amount withdrawn plus accrued interest divided by a 10% discount to the volume weighted average price of the closing price of the Company’s Shares trading on the ASX for 30 trading days immediately prior to the date of the conversion notice. The Company repaid the outstanding balance plus accrued interest on 2 August 2017.

16. Issue of Options

On 19 September 2017, 400,000 Options with a fair value of $29,738 were issued, as consideration for consulting services.

The model inputs for the options granted during the period ended 31 December 2017 included:

  • a) options were issued with an exercise price of $0.12;

  • b) expected life of options is 3 years; c) share price at grant date was $0.10;

  • c) share price at grant date was $0.10; d) expected volatility of 135%, based on the history of the Company’s share prices for the expected life of the options;

Uncle Sam Project

in July 2015, the Company entered into a mineral lease and purchase agreement ( Option Agreement ) with Great American Minerals Exploration Inc. ( GAME ), pursuant to which GAME agreed to lease the Uncle Sam Project for 10 years with an option to purchase the property outright at any time during the lease period.

During the reporting period the Company received noticed from the Department of Natural Resources (State of Alaska) that the mineral claims which comprise the Uncle Sam Gold Project had been declared abandoned ( DNR Notice ). The basis for the decision was an error on the affidavit of labor filed by the previous tenement owner in 2011. As a result, GAME has sought to terminate the Option Agreement.

The Company is currently reviewing its options in relation to this matter, including whether GAME has complied with its obligations under the Option Agreement. Refer further to the Review of Operations .

19. Contingent Liabilities

The Company has a contingent liability arising from the termination of a drilling contract in Paraguay in 2008, subsequent to which Arbitration proceedings were commenced by the drilling contractor.

In August 2016, the Company received notice of the Arbitration Tribunal’s determination. Based on its review of the Tribunal’s judgement and advice from its Paraguayan legal counsel, the Company assessed the quantum of damages that may be payable by it to be approximately US$40,000 plus interest. Subsequently on 7 March 2018, the Company received notice that the plaintiff was seeking a Paraguayan judicial order for the enforcement of an arbitration award against the Company in the amount of US$123,853.

The Company does not anticipate making any damages payment until it has received further advice in relation to the matter, including the accuracy of the claimed amount, enforceability of any judgement in Australia and the Company’s rights to challenge such enforcement.

20. Subsequent events

Other than as disclosed in Note 19 above, there have been no significant events after the reporting date.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF POLARX LIMITED

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of PolarX Limited (formerly Coventry Resources Limited), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2017, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity, and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, condensed notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration for PolarX Limited (the consolidated entity). The consolidated entity comprises of PolarX Limited (the Company) and the entities it controlled during the half year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of PolarX Limited are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2017 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of PolarX Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Whilst we considered the effectiveness of management’s internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our review was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls.

Our review did not involve an analysis of the prudence of business decisions made by the directors or management.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , has been provided to the directors of PolarX Limited on 13 March 2018.

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of PolarX Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2017 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.

Material Uncertainty Regarding Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 2 of the half year financial report, which describes the management’s use of the going concern basis of preparation of the financial statements.

As referred to in Note 2 to the half year financial report, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. As at 31 December 2017, the consolidated entity had cash and cash equivalents of $1,443,078 and had incurred a loss after tax of $684,627 for the half year then ended.

In the event that the consolidated entity is unable to raise additional funding as described in Note 2 to the financial report, and based on the current commitments and planned expenditure, there is a material uncertainty whether the consolidated entity will continue as a going concern, and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report. The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to recoverability and classification of recorded assets amounts, or to the amounts and classification of liabilities, that might be necessary should the consolidated entity not continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
