INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CI RESOURCES LIMITED

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of CI Resources Limited, which comprises the condensed balance sheet as at 30 June 2007, and the condensed income statement, condensed statement of changes in equity and condensed cash flow statement for the half-year ended on that date, a statement of accounting policies, other selected explanatory notes and the directors' declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the disclosing entity and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year in order for the disclosing entity to lodge the half-year financial report with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.

Directors' Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the disclosing entity are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the half-year financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001. This responsibility includes designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

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 an Interim 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 financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the disclosing entity's financial position as at 30 June 2007 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 CI Resources Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

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

13

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, provided to the directors of CI Resources Limited on 31 August 2007, would be in the same terms if provided to the directors as at the date of this auditor's review report.

Qualification

The group, through its controlled entity Xi Feng International Pte Ltd, maintains an investment of 32% in an associated entity. The accounts of the associated entity were qualified due to their auditors being unable to satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the balance of a long term equity investment of $3,311,649 it maintains, as they were not supplied with financial statements of the investee to support the balance.

As a result, any change in this long term equity investment balance could ultimately result in a change in the equity accounted investment and profit and loss of the controlled entity.

Given this limitation of scope, we are unable to conclude on the financial effect, if any, on the carrying value of the equity associated investment in the consolidated accounts or its commensurate effect on the consolidated profit and loss.

Qualified Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit except for the possible effect of the matter described in the above qualification paragraph, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of CI Resources 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 30 June 2007 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.
