Notes to the Financial Statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2008

Note 1. Basis of preparation

This general purpose financial report for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2008 has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001.

The interim financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2008 and any public announcements made by CI Resources Limited during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year.

Note 2. Expenses

Included in expenses is an amount of $2,946,448 for a provision for impairment. This relates to the investment in Guizhou Tianfeng Chem-Phos Company (“GTFC”) held by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary XiFeng International Pte Ltd.

The investment has been fully impaired as GTFC, pursuant to an environmental order, closed the factory plant in April 2008 and ceased operating. The directors consider that it is unlikely any of the investment can be recovered.

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 balance sheet as at 31 December 2008, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity and 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.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the disclosing entity are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the halfyear financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 . This responsibility includes establishing 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 Interim and Other Financial Reports 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 31 December 2008 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.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .

BDO Kendalls is a national association of separate partnerships and entities

==> picture [121 x 23] intentionally omitted <==

Basis for Qualified Auditor’s Conclusion

Limitation of Scope – Prior Period Balances

The company, through its controlled entity XiFeng International Pte Ltd, maintains an investment of 32% in Guizhou Taingfeng Chem-Phos Co Ltd, an associated entity. In prior periods the accounts of the associated entity were previously qualified due to their auditors being unable to satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the balance of a long-term equity investment 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.

During the current period the investment maintained by XiFeng International Pte Ltd in Guizhou Tiangfeng Chem-Phos Co Ltd was impaired to a carrying value of nil (further information is contained at Note 2). Given this limitation of scope imposed on the prior periods, we are unable to conclude on the financial effect, if any, on the profit and loss for the current and prior periods or the net asset position of the consolidated entity as at 31 December 2007 and 30 June 2008.

Qualified Auditor’s Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, except for the effect on the financial statements of the matters referred to in the preceding paragraphs 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 31 December 2008 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.
