In the opinion of the Directors, it may prejudice the interests of the Consolidated Entity to provide additional information (beyond that reported in this Directors’ Report) in relation to future developments and the business strategies and operations of the Consolidated Entity and the expected results of those operations in subsequent financial years.

Orion has advised that it intends to continue its investment activities in future years. The results of these investment activities depend upon the performance of the underlying companies and securities in which the company invests. The investments’ performance depends on many economic factors and also industry and company specific issues. In the opinion of the Orion Directors, it is not possible or appropriate to make a prediction on the future course of markets, the performance of the company’s investments or the forecast of the likely results of the company’s activities.

The Consolidated Entity notes the Government’s proposed Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme ( CPRS ). As the legislation is not yet passed, the Directors are unable to reliably quantify the potential future impact of both direct and indirect costs related to this scheme. As such any costs associated with the CPRS have not been taken into account when preparing budgets, forecasts and/or valuation models for measurement of recognised amounts.

2 Holdings in SRK includes listed shares and unlisted options (as disclosed in the note following the Top 5 Holdings)

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF CONSOLIDATED ENTITY

No person has applied for leave of a court to bring proceedings on behalf of the Consolidated Entity or intervene in any proceedings to which the Consolidated Entity is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Consolidated Entity for all or any part of such proceedings. The Consolidated Entity was not a party to any such proceedings during and since the financial year.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION

In the course of its mineral exploration and evaluation activities, the Consolidated Entity adheres to environmental regulations imposed upon it by various authorities. The Consolidated Entity has complied with all environment requirements during the year and up to the date of this report. No reportable environmental breaches occurred during the financial year and up to the date of this report.

The Consolidated Entity notes the reporting requirements of both the Energy Efficiency Opportunities Act 2006 ( EEOA ) and the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 ( NGERA ). The Energy Efficiency Opportunities Act 2006 requires affected companies to assess its energy usage, including the identification, investigation and evaluation of energy saving opportunities, and to report publicly on the assessments undertaken, including what action the company intends to take as a result. The National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 requires affected companies to report its annual greenhouse gas emissions and energy use. The Consolidated Entity has determined that it does not operate a recognised facility requiring registration and reporting under the NGERA and in any event, it would fall under the threshold of greenhouse gas emissions required for registration and reporting. Similarly, the Consolidated Entity’s energy consumption would fall under the threshold required for registration and reporting under the EEOA.

The Consolidated Entity is not otherwise subject to any particular or significant environmental regulation under either Commonwealth or State legislation. To the extent that any environmental regulations may have an incidental impact on the Consolidated Entity's operations, the Directors are not aware of any breach by the Consolidated Entity of those regulations.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2009

1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial report (comprising the financial statements and notes thereto) is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial report includes separate financial statements for Queste Communications Ltd as an individual parent entity (the “Company” ) and the consolidated entity consisting of Queste Communications Ltd and its controlled entities. Queste Communications Ltd is a company limited by shares, incorporated in Western Australia.

Compliance with IFRS

The financial report complies with all Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards ( AIFRS ) in their entirety. Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the consolidated financial statements of Queste Communications Ltd comply with International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ).

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.

Reporting Basis and Conventions

The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, and financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.

1.1. Principles of Consolidation

A controlled entity is any entity the Company has the power to control the financial and operating policies of so as to obtain benefits from its activities. A list of controlled entities is contained in note 14 to the financial statements. All 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 consistencies with those policies applied by the Company.

1.2. Investments in Associates

Investments in associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method. Under this method, the consolidated entity’s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of associates is recognised in the consolidated income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in consolidated reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the cost of the investment. Associates are those entities over which the consolidated entity exercises significant influence, but not control. A list of associates is contained in note 15 to the financial statements. All associate entities have a June financial year-end.

1.3. Mineral Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure

Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated (i.e. capitalised) 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 or otherwise 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.

Under AASB 6 “Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources”, if facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of any recognised exploration and evaluation assets may be impaired, the Company must perform impairment tests on those assets and measure any impairment in accordance with AASB 136 “Impairment of Assets”. Any impairment loss is to be recognised as an expense. 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.

1.4. Segment reporting

A business segment is a group of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different to those of other business segments. A geographical segment is engaged in providing products or services within a particular economic environment and is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of segments operating in other economic environments. The consolidated entity’s segment reporting is contained in note 25 of the notes to the financial statements.

1.5. Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the consolidated entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax ( “GST” ). The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Sale of Goods and Disposal of Assets - Revenue from the sale of goods and disposal of other assets is recognised when the consolidated entity has passed control of the goods or other assets to the buyer.

Contributions of Assets - Revenue arising from the contribution of assets is recognised when the consolidated entity gains control of the asset or the right to receive the contribution.

Interest Revenue - Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.

Dividend Revenue - Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. The consolidated entity brings dividend revenue to account on the applicable ex-dividend entitlement date.

Other Revenues - Other revenues are recognised on a receipts basis.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2009

1.6. Income Tax

The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the notional income tax rate for each taxing jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses (if applicable).

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each taxing jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The amount of deferred tax assets 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.

settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Employer superannuation contributions are made by the consolidated entity in accordance with statutory obligations and are charged as an expense when incurred.

The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service.

1.9. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes 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. Bank overdrafts (if any) are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.

1.10. Receivables

Trade and other receivables are recorded at amounts due less any provision for doubtful debts. An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off when considered nonrecoverable.

1.11. Dividends Policy

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the financial year but not distributed at balance date.

1.12. Investments and Other Financial Assets

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

1.7. 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 Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

1.8. Employee Benefits

Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.

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 within the requirements of AASB 139: 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 income statement in the period in which they arise.

Available for sale financial assets- Available for sale financial assets, comprising principally marketable equity securities, are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any other categories. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of these assets are recognised in equity in the period in which they arise.

Loans and receivables - Loans and receivables are nonderivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be

QUESTE COMMUNICATIONS LTD A.B.N. 58 081 688 164

30 JUNE 2009

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2009

Financial liabilities - Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation.

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.

At each reporting date, the consolidated entity assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.

1.13. Fair value Estimation

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the consolidated entity is the current bid price; the appropriate quoted market price for financial liabilities is the current ask price.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques. The consolidated entity may use a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance date. Other techniques, such as estimated discounted cash flows, are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial instruments.

The nominal value less estimated credit adjustments of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the consolidated entity for similar financial instruments.

1.14. Property held for Resale

Property held for development and sale is valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the cost of acquisition, development, borrowing costs and holding costs until completion of development. Finance costs and holding charges incurred after development are expensed. Profits are brought to account on the signing of an unconditional contract of sale.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the consolidated entity and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

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

Class of Fixed Asset	Depreciation Rate	Depreciation Method
Plant and Equipment	15-33.3%	DiminishingValue
Furniture and Equipment	15-20%	DiminishingValue
Leasehold Improvements	15%	DiminishingValue

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet 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 carrying amount. These are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.

1.16. 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 asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement. 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.

1.17. Payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

1.15. Property, Plant and Equipment

1.18. Issued Equity

All plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Freehold Land is not depreciated (except for property held for resale – refer to Note 1.13). It is shown at fair value, based on periodic valuations by external independent valuers. Any upward revaluation is recognised through equity.

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 that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present value in determining recoverable amount.

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options, or for the acquisition of a business, are included in the cost of the acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.

1.19. Earnings Per Share

Basic Earnings per share is determined by dividing the operating result after income tax by the weighted average number of ordinary shares on issue during the financial period.

FULL YEAR REPORT | 26

QUESTE COMMUNICATIONS LTD A.B.N. 58 081 688 164

30 JUNE 2009

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2009

Diluted Earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share by taking into account amounts unpaid on ordinary shares and any reduction in earnings per share that will probably arise from the exercise of options outstanding during the financial period.

1.20. Research and Development Costs

Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised only when technically feasibility studies identify that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably. Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.

1.21. Business Combinations

The purchase method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, including business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Where equity instruments are issued in an acquisition, the fair value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that the published price at the date of exchange is an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of fair value. Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group's share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the Group's share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired.

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity's incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

(ii) Land held for resale/capitalisation of borrowing costs

Land held for resale is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is assigned by specific identification and includes the cost of acquisition, and development and borrowing costs during development. When development is completed borrowing costs and other holding charges are expensed as incurred.

Borrowing costs included in the cost of land held for resale are those costs that would have been avoided if the expenditure on the acquisition and development of the land had not been made. Borrowing costs incurred while active development is interrupted for extended periods are recognised as expenses.

1.23. Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately on the face of the income statement.

1.24. Leases

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Group as lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

1.25. Biological Assets

Biological assets are initially, and subsequent to initial recognition, measured at their fair value less any estimated point-of-sale costs. Gains or losses arising on initial or subsequent recognition are accounted for via the profit or loss for the period in which the gain or loss arises. Agricultural produce harvested from the biological assets shall be measured at its fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs at the point of harvest.

1.22. Inventories

(i) Raw materials and stores, work in progress and finished goods

Raw materials and stores, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. They include the transfer from equity of any gains losses on qualifying cash flow hedges relating to purchases of raw material. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on basis of weighted average costs. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated

1.26. New standards and interpretations Released But Not Yet Adopted

The following new Accounting Standards and Interpretations (which have been released but not yet adopted) have no material impact on the Company’s accounts/financial statements or the associated notes therein.

New / revised pronouncement	Explanation of amendments	Effective date/Application date
AASB 1 First time adoption of Australian Accounting Standards (May 2009)– “AASB 1R”	Structure of the standard has been amended for ease of use.	30 June 2010
AASB 3 Business Combinations (March 2008) – “AASB 3R”	AASB 3R amends how entities account for business combinations and changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries. Many changes have been made to this standard affecting acquisition related costs, step acquisitions, measurement of goodwill and contingent considerations. AASB 3 also replaces the term “Minority Interest” with “Non-controlling Interest”. This standard can be early adopted, but only for reporting periods that begin on or after 30 June 2007. AASB 3 is applied prospectively.	Business combinations occurring on or after an annual reporting beginning on or after 1 July 2009
AASB 8 Operating Segments (February 2007)	AASB 8 supersedes AASB 114. AASB 8 has a different scope of application to AASB 114; it is applicable only to listed entities and those in the process of listing, and requires that segment information be disclosed using the management approach. This may result in a different set of segments being identified than those previously disclosed under AASB 114.	31 December 2009

23. ISSUED CAPITAL (continued)

(ii) Partly paid ordinary shares

There were no movements during the year for partly paid ordinary shares.

On 9 July 2008, a further $104,500 was paid resulting in the Company's 20,000,000 unlisted partly paid ordinary shares each paid to 1.5225 cent with 18.4775 cents per share outstanding.

At any meeting, each shareholder present in person or by proxy, attorney or representative has one vote for each ordinary fully paid share held either upon a show of hands or by a poll. Holders of partly paid shares have a fraction of a vote for each partly paid share held with the fractional vote of each share being equivalent to the proportion which the amount actually paid (not credited) for that share is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) for that share. Amounts paid in advance of a call are ignored when calculating proportions. The holder of a partly paid share is not entitled to vote at a meeting in respect of those shares on which calls are outstanding. No voting rights are attached to the Company's options on issue.

The profits of the Company, which the Directors may from time to time determine to distribute to shareholders by way of a dividend, will be divisible amongst the shareholders in proportion to the amounts paid on the shares held by them. An amount paid in advance of a call is not to be included as an amount paid on a share for the purposes of calculating entitlement to dividends for such share.

26. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Consolidated Entity's financial instruments mainly consist of listed and unlisted securities, deposits with banks, accounts receivable and payable and loans to related parties. The main risks arising from the Consolidated Entity's financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk, equity price risk and liquidity risk.

Risk management is carried out by the Management with the approval of the Board of Directors. Management evaluates, monitors and manages the Consolidated Entity's financial risk in close co-operation with its operating units.

The financial receivables and payables of the Consolidated Entity and the Company in the table below are due or payable within 30 days. The financial investments are held for trading and are realised at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

26. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

(a) Interest Rate Risk Exposure

Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Consolidated Entity's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relate primarily to investments held in interest bearing instruments. The Consolidated Entity has no borrowings. The average interest rate for the cash and cash equivalents was 5.95% (2008: 6.99%)

Cash at bank Term deposit	$ $ 712,268 168,671 2009 3,127,164 3,029,260 410,828 194,487 $ $ Company 2008 3,029,260 3,127,164 2009 2008 Consolidated Entity
	3,197,931 3,839,432 3,440,088 3,321,651

(b) Liquidity Risk Exposure

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Consolidated Entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Consolidated Entity has no borrowings.

The financial liabilities disclosed in the above table have a maturity obligation of within 30 days.

(c) Credit Risk Exposure

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty under a financial instrument will default (in whole or in part) on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Consolidated Entity. Concentrations of credit risk are minimised primarily by undertaking appropriate due diligence on potential investments, carrying out all market transactions through approved brokers, settling non-market transactions with the involvement of suitably qualified legal and accounting personnel (both internal and external), and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security (where appropriate) as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. This financial year there was no necessity to obtain collateral.

The credit quality of the financial assets are neither past due nor impaired. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying amount of the financial assets as summarised below:

Cash and cash equivalents Receivables Investments	2009 Consolidated Entity Company 2009 2008 2008 $ 3,321,651 188,802 3,839,432 3,197,931 130,396 276,135 63,717 4,301 7,076,726 11,447,515 41,118 $ $ $ 3,440,088
	15,563,082 3,302,766 10,647,210 3,514,754

The Consolidated Entity measures credit risk on a fair value basis. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any provision for losses, represents the Consolidated Entity’s maximum exposure to credit risk.

All receivables noted above are due within 30 days. None of the above receivables are past due.

(d) Equity Price Risk Exposure

Equity price risk represents the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual instrument or its issuer or factors affecting all instruments in the market. Price risk is minimised through ensuring that investment activities are undertaken in accordance with Board established mandate limits and investment strategies.

Equity securities price risk arises on the financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

At the investment portfolio level, the Consolidated Entity is not overly exposed to one company or one particular industry sector of the market.

26. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

(e)[Foreign Currency Risk]

Last financial year, the Consolidated Entity was exposed to foreign currency risk on cash held by the Company and a controlled foreign entity, foreign resource project investment commitments and exploration and evaluation expenditure on foreign resource projects. The currency risk that gave rise to this risk was primarily Indonesia rupiahs. Since the sale of the controlled foreign entity, the Consolidated Entity has not entered into any forward exchange contracts as at balance date and is not currently exposed to foreign exchange risk. The Consolidated Entity's exposure to foreign currency risk at reporting date was as follows:

	Consolidated	Entity		Company
	2009	2008	2009		2008
	IDR	IDR	IDR		IDR
Cash	-	196,148,658		-		-
Receivables	-	1,730,320,600		-		-
Payables	-	(110,461,923)		-		-

(f) Net Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The carrying amount of financial instruments recorded in the financial statements represent their fair value determined in accordance with the accounting policies disclosed in Note 1 . The aggregate fair value and carrying amount of financial assets at balance date are set out in Note 11 and financial liabilities at balance date are set out in Note 20 .

(g) Sensitivity Analysis

The Consolidated Entity has no borrowings, therefore no liability exposure to interest rate risk. The revenue exposure is immaterial in terms of the possible impact on profit or loss or total equity. It has therefore not been included in the sensitivity analysis.

The Consolidated Entity's exposure to the Indonesian rupiahs is immaterial in terms of the possible impact on profit or loss or total equity. It has therefore not been included in the sensitivity analysis.

The Consolidated Entity has performed a sensitivity analysis on its exposure to market price risk at balance date. The analysis demonstrates the effect on the current year results and equity which could result from a change in these risks. The All Ordinaries index was utilised as the benchmark for the listed share investments which are available for sale assets or at fair value through profit or loss. The Strike Resources Limited (SRK) unlisted options will be based upon the sensitivity of SRK share price. The Company had not performed a sensitivity analysis on its investment portfolio exposure as it is immaterial in terms of the possible impact on profit or loss or total equity.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF QUESTE COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED

Report on the Financial Report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Queste Communications Limited, which comprises the balance sheet as at 30 June 2009, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies, other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the disclosing entity and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report

The directors of the disclosing entity are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the 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 controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the 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. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that compliance with the Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Independence

In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 would be in the same terms if it had been given to the directors at the time that this auditor’s report was made.

BDO Kendalls is a national association of separate partnerships and entities. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.

(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Regulations 2001 ; and
(b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1.

Report on the Remuneration Report

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2009. The directors of Queste Communications Limited are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.

Auditor’s Opinion
