On 3 February 2011, Mineral Resources Tasmania granted an extension of the term for licences EL63/2004 and EL64/2004 to 7 August 2011 and 9 August 2011 respectively, thus fulfilling the conditions precedent for the 6 October 2010 Heads of Agreement with Minemakers TTT Pty Ltd (“Minemakers”).

On 25 February 2011, the Company executed a Joint Venture Agreement (“Agreement”), with Minemakers TTT Pty Ltd (“Minemakers”). Under this Agreement, Minemakers acquired at 75% interest in each of 2 Tasmanian tenements, EL63/2004 and EL64/2004, for $20,000 per tenement.

11. Remuneration Report – Audited

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of Clancy Exploration Limited and the Group, and for the executives receiving the highest remuneration in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. For the purposes of this report Key Management Personnel (KMP) of the Group are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company and the Group, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the parent company, and includes the three executives in the Parent and the Group receiving the highest remuneration.

For the purposes of this report, the term “executive” encompasses the Managing Director, senior executives and the secretary of the Parent and the Group.

Remuneration Policy

The remuneration policy of Clancy Exploration Limited has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives. The board of Clancy Exploration Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the consolidated entity, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.

Options to acquire ordinary shares have been granted to all current directors and certain key management personnel in 2010. The Board believes that options are an effective remuneration tool which preserve the cash reserves of the company whilst providing valuable remuneration. The options granted in 2007 expired on 30 April 2010. The options, granted in 2009 with an expiry date of 10 August 2013 are not transferable are to be forfeited if either the grantee voluntarily terminates his employment and does not exercise the options within thirty days of resignation or the company terminates his employment for reasons of serious misconduct. The options, granted in 2010 with an expiry date of 30 September 2013 may only be transferred with the Board‟s consent and are to be cancelled if either the grantee voluntarily terminates his employment and does not exercise the options within thirty days of resignation or the company terminates his employment for reasons of serious misconduct. The options, granted in 2010 with an expiry date of 31 December 2013 are not transferable and they may be cancelled at the Board‟s discretion if either the grantee voluntarily terminates his employment and does not exercise the options within thirty days of resignation or the company terminates his employment for reasons of serious misconduct.

Clancy Exploration Limited – Annual Report 2010 - 4 -

CLANCY EXPLORATION LIMITED ABN: 65 105 578 756 AND CONTROLLED ENTITY

DIRECTORS' REPORT

The board‟s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the consolidated entity is as follows:

• The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, was developed and approved by the board after seeking professional advice from independent external consultants.

• All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience) and options granted to acquire ordinary shares.

• The board reviews executive packages annually by reference to the consolidated entity‟s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors.

All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Options are valued using the Binomial Tree methodology.

Non-Executive Directors

The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. The board determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required.

The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Currently there is a maximum aggregate sum of $200,000 per annum, which is to be divided between the Non-Executive Directors in the proportions agreed between them or, failing agreement, equally. Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company and are granted options.

Remuneration Sub-Committee

The Board has established a sub-committee to consider remuneration of the Board and key management personnel. The Remuneration Sub-Committee seeks independent professional advice to formulate remuneration policy recommendations which are then submitted to the Board for approval. The Remuneration Sub-Committee met once in the 2010 year. The Remuneration Sub-Committee is comprised of the Chairman, Dr James Macdonald, independent non-executive director, Mr Mark Lester and the Company Secretary.

Company performance, shareholder wealth and director and executive remuneration

The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders, directors and executives. The achievement of this aim has been through the issue of options to the majority of directors and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests.

Executive and non-executive directors, other key management personnel and other senior employees have been granted options over ordinary shares. Options granted in 2009 and 2010, vested upon grant. The recipients of options are responsible for growing the Company and increasing shareholder value. If they achieve this goal the value of the options granted to them will also increase. Therefore the options provide an incentive to the recipients to remain with the Company and to continue to work to enhance the Company's value.

There is no policy in place which limits exposure to risk in relation to those securities in the Company which constitute an element of directors‟ remuneration and which are linked to satisfaction of Company performance conditions.

The table below sets out summary information about the consolidated entity‟s earnings and movements in shareholder wealth for the four years to 31 December 2010:

Basis of preparation

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. These financial statements have also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for available-for-sale investments, which have been measured at fair value.

These financial statements are presented in Australian dollars.

Going concern

As at 31 December 2010, the consolidated entity and parent entity had net current assets of $1,822,467 (2009: $1,639,178) and $1,824,646 (2009: $1,641,145) and had incurred losses of $2,743,959 (2009: $3,201,171) and $2,743,747 (2009: $3,200,959) and experienced net cash outflows from operating activities of $2,944,798 (2009: $3,658,314) and $2,944,798 (2009: $3,658,314) respectively for the year then ended.

Based on minimum committed cashflows for a period of 12 months from the date of this report, it is expected that cash on hand will be significantly reduced and further cash resources will be required to be raised before October 2011. At the date of this report, activities to raise this funding are at a preliminary stage.

These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the consolidated entity and the parent entity to continue as going concerns.

The ability of the consolidated entity and the parent entity to continue as going concerns is principally dependent upon the ability of the consolidated entity and the parent entity to secure funds by raising capital from equity markets.

Based on the cash flow forecast and other factors referred to above, the directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate. In particular, given the consolidated entity and parent entity‟s history of raising capital to date, the directors are confident of the ability to raise additional funds as and when they are required. The financial report has therefore been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

Should the consolidated entity and parent entity be unable to raise the funding referred to above, there is a material uncertainty whether the consolidated entity and parent entity will continue as going concerns and therefore whether they will realise their assets and extinguish their 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 and classification of liabilities that might result should the consolidated entity and parent entity be unable to continue as going concerns.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

(e) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Clancy Exploration Limited and its subsidiary (as outlined in Note 23) as at 31 December each year (the Group).

Subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group.

Investments in subsidiaries held by Clancy Exploration Limited are accounted for at cost in the separate financial statements of the parent entity.

The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. The purchase method of accounting involves allocating the cost of the business combination to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (see Note 2 (f)).

(f)

Business combinations

Prior to 1 July 2009

The purchase method of accounting was used to account for all business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets were acquired. Cost was measured as the fair value of the assets given, shares issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange plus costs directly attributable to the combination. Where equity instruments were issued in a business combination, the fair value of the instruments was their published market price as at the date of exchange. Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments were recognised directly in equity.

Where a business combination occurred that involved Group entities under common control, both before and after the business combination, the requirements of the previous AASB 3 Business Combinations (prior to its revision) did not apply and thus the combination was been accounted for according to the pooling of interest method based on the carrying value of the net assets. Furthermore, no goodwill or fair value treatment was required, given that this transaction was outside the scope of the previous AASB 3. This treatment was also supported by the fact that Group entities, all being related parties, could not transact in an arm‟s length transaction and therefore determine the fair value of the company acquired.

Except for non-current assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale (which were measured at fair value less costs to sell), all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination were measured initially at the fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of the business combination over the net fair value of the Group‟s share of the identifiable net assets acquired was recognised as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition was less than the Group‟s share of the net fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary, the difference was recognised as the gain in the statement of comprehensive income, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired.

Where settlement of any part of the consideration was deferred, the amounts payable in the future were discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used was 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.

Subsequent to 1 July 2009

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination shall be measured at fair value, which shall be calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair value of the assets transferred by the acquirer, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the equity issued by the acquirer, and the amount of any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the acquirer measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree‟s identifiable net assets. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.

When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the Group‟s operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by the acquiree.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

(f) Business combinations (Cont’d)

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer‟s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured at fair value as at the acquisition date through profit or loss.

Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer will be recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or liability will be recognized in accordance with AASB 139 either in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it shall not be remeasured.

(g) Segment Reporting

Management has assessed that the company‟s reportable business segments under the quantitative criteria set out in AASB 8 Segment Reporting and has determined that no additional operating segments disclosures are required.

AASB 8 requires the „management approach‟ to the identification, measurement and disclosure of operating segments. The „management approach‟ requires that operating segments be identified on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the entity‟s chief operating decision maker, for the purpose of allocating resources and assessing performance. This could also include the identification of operating segments which sell primarily or exclusively to other internal operating segments.

In its adoption of the „management approach‟ to segment reporting, the company has identified that it continues to operate as a gold, copper and base metals explorer and developer, in a single reportable business segment, under one segment manager, in one geographical location being Australia, consistent with the prior year. The information disclosed in the financial statements is the same information utilised internally by the chief operating decision maker. Accordingly no additional quantitative or qualitative disclosures are required.

(h) Foreign currency translation

(i) Functional and presentation currency Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group‟s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Clancy Exploration Limited‟s functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and balances Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rates ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

(i)

Cash and cash equivalents – Note 8

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and short-term deposits with an original maturity of not more than 3 months that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above. The consolidated entity does not have any bank overdraft facilities.

(j)

Trade and other receivables – Note 9

Trade receivables are generally paid on 30 day settlement terms and are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for impairment. Trade receivables are non-interest bearing.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Individual debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified. An impairment provision would be recognised when legal notice has been sent and a reply not received within 30 days.

(k) Investments and other financial assets – Note 10 and 11

Investments and financial assets in the scope of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are categorised as either financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Designation is re-evaluated at each financial year end, but there are restrictions on reclassifying to other categories.

(k) Investments and other financial assets – Note 10 and 11 (Cont’d)

When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of assets not at fair value through profit and loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

Recognition and Derecognition

All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date i.e. the date that the consolidated entity commits to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets under contracts that require delivery of the assets within the period established generally by regulation or convention in the market place. Financial assets are derecognised when the right to receive cash flows from the financial assets has expired or when the entity transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of the financial assets. If the entity neither retains nor transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards, it derecognizes the asset if it has transferred control of the assets.

(i) Loans and receivables – Note 9 Loans and receivables including loan notes and loans to key management personnel are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are carried at the transaction price minus principal repayments and minus any allowance for impairment or uncollectability. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired. Loans and receivables are included with receivables in current assets in the statement of financial position, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after balance date, which are classified as non-current. Loans and receivables with maturities greater than 12 months are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

(ii) Available-for-sale securities – Note 10

Available-for-sale investments are those non-derivative financial assets, principally equity securities, that are designated as available-forsale or are not classified as any of the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments or loans and receivables. After initial recognition available-for-sale securities are measured at fair value with gains or losses being recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is recognised in profit or loss.

The fair values of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets are determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the reporting date. For investments with no active market, fair values are determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include: using recent arm‟s length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument that is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models making as much use of available and supportable market data as possible and keeping judgmental inputs to a minimum.

(iii) Financial assets carried at cost – Note 11 Investments are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost in the company financial statements. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred on an unquoted equity instrument that is not carried at fair value (because its fair value cannot be reliably measured), the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset‟s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset.

(l)

Interest in a jointly controlled operation – Note 19

The consolidated entity has interests in three overall joint ventures that are jointly controlled operations. A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby two or more parties undertake an economic activity that is subject to joint control. A jointly controlled operation involves use of assets and other resources of the venturers rather than establishment of a separate entity.

In the case of two joint ventures and one project under a third joint venture, joint venture partners are sole funding exploration expenditure until the completion of certain programs, studies or milestones. Accordingly the consolidated entity is incurring nor accounting for such exploration expenditure. In the case of all other projects under the third joint venture, the consolidated entity can elect to contribute to ongoing exploration costs in proportion to its interests or dilute. Some contributions were made during the course of 2010 and were accounted for as exploration expenditure. In previous years, all exploration expenditure in relation to a jointly controlled operation where the consolidated entity was the manager were recovered from the other joint venture partner in its entirety for as long as the other joint venture partner was earning its interest. Once the joint venture partner had earned its interest, the Company recovered expenditure equivalent to the other joint venture partner's interest.

(m)

Intangibles and Impairment of non-financial assets other than that of goodwill – Note 13

Intangible assets acquired separately are initially measured at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangible assets are not capitalised and expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.

(m) Intangibles and Impairment of non-financial assets other than that of goodwill – Note 13

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful life and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life is reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable or at least at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, which is a change in accounting estimate. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in profit or loss in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset.

The consolidated entity does not have any intangible assets with indefinite lives.

(i) Impairment

Intangible assets other than goodwill and indefinite life intangibles are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

The consolidated entity conducts an annual internal review of asset values, which is used as a source of information to assess for any indicators of impairment. External factors, such as changes in expected future processes, technology and economic conditions, are also monitored to assess for indicators of impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the asset‟s recoverable amount is calculated.

An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset‟s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of the asset‟s fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are tested for possible reversal of the impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the impairment may have reversed.

(ii) Derecognition and disposal Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of an intangible asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

Plant and Equipment – Note 12

Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of these items.

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 statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight line and diminishing value methods to allocate the cost of the specific assets over their estimated useful lives. The expected useful lives are detailed in Note 12.

The assets‟ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.

(i) Impairment The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

The directors have determined that items of plant and equipment do not generate independent cash inflows and that the business of the consolidated entity is, in its entirety, a cash-generating unit. The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is thus determined to be its fair value less costs to sell.

An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount. For plant and equipment, impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as an expense.

(ii) Derecognition and disposal

An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These are included in the statement of comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, it is consolidated entity policy to transfer the amounts included in other reserves in respect of those assets to retained earnings.

(o) Trade and other payables – Note 14

CLANCY EXPLORATION LIMITED ABN: 65 105 578 756 AND CONTROLLED ENTITY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Trade payables and other payables are carried at the transaction price minus principal repayments. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the consolidated entity becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

(p)

Provisions and employee benefits – Note 15

Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

When the consolidated entity expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.

Provisions are measured at the present value of management‟s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date using a discounted cash flow methodology. The risks specific to the provision are factored into the cash flows and as such a risk-free government bond rate relative to the expected life of the provision is used as a discount rate. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised in finance costs.

Employee leave benefits

(i) Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled with 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in respect of employees‟ services up to the reporting date. Liabilities for annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in the current provision for the employee benefits. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Expenses for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable.

(ii) Long Service Leave The liability for long service leave is recognised 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 using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures, and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

(q)

Share-based payment transactions – Note 26

(i) Equity settled transactions : The consolidated entity provides benefits to its directors, employees and consultants in the form of share-based payments, whereby directors and employees render services in exchange for options to acquire shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions). The consolidated entity has also issued ordinary shares and unlisted options as consideration to vendors for the acquisition of exploration licences.

The cost of these equity-settled transactions is measured by reference to the fair value to the Company of the equity instruments at the date at which they were granted in the case of options for directors, employees and consultants; and the closing share price on, or just before, either the date of entering into, or executing, an exploration licence purchase agreement in the case of options and shares issued to tenement vendors as consideration for the settlement price. The fair value of the unlisted options is determined using a binominal tree model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted, or were expected to be granted in the case of the Centaurus Resources options, further details of which are given in Note 26.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised as an expense, together with a corresponding increase in equity, on a straight-line basis, over the period in which the vesting and/or service conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period), ending on the date on which the relevant directors and employees become fully entitled to the options (the vesting date).

At each subsequent reporting date until vesting, the cumulative charge to the statement of comprehensive income reflects:

(i) the grant date fair value of the options;

(ii) the current best estimate of the number of options that will ultimately vest, taking into account such factors as the likelihood of employee turnover during the vesting period and the likelihood of vesting conditions being met, based on best available information at balance date; and

(iii) the extent to which the vesting period has expired.

(q) Share-based payment transactions – Note 26 (Cont’d)

The charge to the statement of comprehensive income for the period is the cumulative amount as calculated above less the amounts already charged in previous periods. There is a corresponding entry to equity.

If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.

If an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

Contributed Equity – Note 16

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.

(s) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised and measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the consolidated entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

(i) Rendering of Services

Where the work performed in relation to a joint venture or other contract outcome can be reliably measured:

• right to receive compensation for the services provided and the stage of completion can be reliably measured. Stage of completion is measured by reference to the labour hours performed to date as a percentage of total estimated labour hours in relation to a joint venture or for each contract. Where it is probable that a loss will arise in relation to a joint venture or from a contract, the excess of total costs over revenue is recognised as an expense immediately.

Where the contract outcome cannot be reliably measured:

• revenue is recognised only to the extent that the costs that have been incurred are recoverable.

Unearned income is recognised in respect of progress billings and advances on exploration contracts in progress, received in advance, or not represented by work done or reimbursable expenditure incurred, under joint venture arrangements. Such income is recognised and brought to account over time as it is earned.

(ii) Interest revenue

Revenue is recognised as interest accrued using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised costs of a financial asset and allocating the interest revenue over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

All revenue is stated net of Goods and Services Tax (“GST”).

(t)

Income tax and other taxes – Note 6

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the current period‟s taxable income. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets, liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial statements purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:

• when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset/liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

• when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interest in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

(t) Income tax and other taxes – Note 6 (Cont’d)

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

• when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of the asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

• when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Tax consolidation legislation

Clancy Exploration Limited and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entity formed a tax consolidated group on 1 July 2008. However, they continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The consolidated entity has applied the stand alone taxpayer approach in determining the appropriate amount of current taxes and deferred taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group. The current and deferred tax amounts are measured in a systematic manner that is consistent with the broad principles in AASB 112 Income Taxes.

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Clancy Exploration Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group.

Members of the tax consolidated group have not entered into a tax funding agreement and as no current tax assets or liabilities or deferred tax assets are recognised in relation to tax losses or unused tax credits, no contributions or distributions are required to be made under AASB Int 1052 Tax Consolidation Accounting.

Other taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:

• when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and

• receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as part of operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority.

(u)

Earnings per share – Note 7

Basic earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:

• costs of servicing equity (other than dividends);

• the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and

• other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

(v) Exploration Expenditure

Exploration expenditure incurred by the consolidated entity in relation to its own sole-funded projects together with any optional quarterly contributions to exploration expenditure, made to the manager of one the jointly controlled operations, are recognised in profit or loss as incurred and are classified in the statement of comprehensive income under the expense category “Exploration expenditure”.

Exploration expenditure incurred by the consolidated entity, on those joint venture projects it managed, was almost completely recovered from joint venture partners and as such was recognised in profit or loss as incurred. It is classified in the statement of comprehensive income within the income or expense category “Net joint venture reimbursed expenses”.

(w)

Financial Liabilities and Equity Instruments Issued by the Consolidated Entity – Notes 14, 16 and 17

• (i) Classification as debt or equity

• Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual agreement.

• (ii) Equity instruments

• An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

• (iii) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities „at FVTPL‟ or „other financial liabilities‟.

• (iv) Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs.

Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized on an effective yield basis.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financially liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Equally, the consolidated entity continually employs judgement in the application of its accounting policies.

Management has identified the following critical accounting policies for which significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are made. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. Those which may materially affect the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities reported in future periods are discussed below:

(a) Significant accounting judgements

(i) Classification of and valuation of investments The consolidated entity has decided to classify investments in listed securities as „available-for-sale‟ investments. Gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is sold, collected or otherwise disposed of, or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is included in the statement of comprehensive income. The fair value of listed shares and options has been determined by reference to published price quotation in an active market.

(ii) Impairment of non-financial assets including intangible computer software The consolidated entity assesses impairment on all assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the consolidated entity and to the particular asset that may lead to impairment. These include technology and economic environments. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves value-in-use calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates and assumptions.

Clancy Exploration Limited – Annual Report 2010 - 31 -

CLANCY EXPLORATION LIMITED ABN: 65 105 578 756 AND CONTROLLED ENTITY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(b) Significant accounting estimates and assumptions

(i) Share-based payment transactions

The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity settled transactions with directors, employees, consultants and vendors of tenements by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted in the case of options for directors, employees and consultants; and the closing share price on, or just before, either the date of entering into, or executing, an exploration licence purchase agreement in the case of options and shares issued to tenement vendors as consideration for the settlement price. In the case of options, fair value is determined using a Binomial Tree model, in accordance with the assumptions detailed in Note 26. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact expenses and equity.

(ii) Estimation of useful lives of assets

The estimation of useful lives of assets has been based on historical experience as well as manufacturers‟ warranties (for plant and equipment) and software developers‟ support and maintenance program (operating computer software and intangible computer software). Adjustments to useful lives are made when considered necessary. Depreciation and amortisation charges as well as estimated useful lives are included in Notes 12 and 13.

(h) Tax consolidation

(i) Members of the tax consolidated group and the tax sharing agreement

Clancy Exploration Limited and its 100% owned Australian resident subsidiary were both subsidiaries in a tax-consolidated group with Geoinformatics Exploration Australia Pty Ltd as the head entity until 2 July 2007. A new tax-consolidated group was formed on 1 July 2008 with Clancy Exploration Limited as Head Entity. Members of the new tax-consolidated group have not yet entered into a tax sharing agreement.

As at 31 December 2010, the Company has on issue 36,728,362 options over unissued capital and has incurred a net loss. As the notional exercise prices of these options is greater than the current market price of the shares, they have not been included in the calculations of the diluted earnings per share as they are anti-dilutive for all periods presented.

• (ii) Other than as noted in Note 24, there have been no transactions involving ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares that would significantly change the number of ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares outstanding between the reporting date and the date of completion of these financial statements.

• (a) Allowance for impairment loss

(i) Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally paid on 30 day settlement terms. A provision for impairment loss would be recognised when legal notice has been sent and reply not received in 30 days. No debtors were outside terms at 31 December 2010 (31 December 2009 - one debtor was outside terms) and no allowance for impairment losses have been made (2009: $Nil)

At 31 December, the ageing analysis of trade receivables is as follows:

		Total	0-30	days	Past due but not impaired: >
					90 days
2010	Consolidated	-		-	-
	Parent	-		-	-
2009	Consolidated	1,686		78	1,608
	Parent	1,686		78	1,608

Other balances within trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. It is expected that these other balances will be received when due.

• (ii) Sundry debtors are non-interest bearing and represent receivables with various maturities.

(iii) Accrued income comprises interest receivable on various term deposits and which is only receivable on maturity dates which fall after reporting date.

• (iv) Included in trade receivables at 31 December 2009 is an amount of $78 which was owed by an associated entity Geoinformatics Exploration Australia Pty Ltd.

(v) The income tax R&D benefits receivable is a cash rebate receivable from the Australian Taxation Office in respect of research and development expenditure incurred in the 2010 tax year.

(b) Related party receivables

For terms and conditions of related party receivables refer to Note 23

• (c) Fair value and credit risk

Due to the short term nature of the receivables, their carrying value is assumed to approximate their fair value.

Given the nature of the receivables as detailed above, the consolidated entity‟s exposure to credit risk is not considered to be material. The Group‟s maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of trade and other receivables. Collateral is not held as security. Nor is it the consolidated entity's policy to transfer (on-sell) receivables to special purpose entities.

10. AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE INVESTMENTS (Current) Notes Investments comprise: Shares - in listed corporation - at fair value Options - in listed corporation - at fair value	Consolidated Parent 2010 2009 2010 2009 $ $ $ $ - - - - - 1,125 - 1,125 - 1,125 - 1,125

The available-for-sale investment at 31 December 2009 comprised Australian investments in listed options and therefore had no fixed maturity date or coupon rate. These listed options expired on 30 April 2010. During 2009 there were no impairments to investments and the ordinary shares were disposed of at a net gain of $103,351.

(a) Listed shares and options

The fair value of listed available-for-sale investments has been determined directly by reference to published price quotations in an active market.

During 2007 the parent entity recognised an impairment loss of $459,999 relating to its investment in its wholly owned subsidiary Geoinformatics Tasmania Pty Ltd ("GET"). This loss was based on an assessment of the value-in-use and fair value less costs to sell. As the assets of GET comprise of interests in exploration licences, the expenditure for which has been expensed as incurred in accordance with the Group's accounting policy on exploration expenditure, the company has determined that neither the value-inuse nor the fair value less costs to sell can be reliably estimated.

When managing capital, management‟s objective is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Management also aims to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the entity may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares, enter into joint ventures or sell assets.

The entity does not have a defined share buy-back plan.

No dividends were paid in 2010 and no dividends are expected to be paid in 2011.

There is no current intention to incur debt funding on behalf of the company as on-going exploration expenditure will be funded via equity or joint ventures with other companies such as those currently in place with Gold Fields Australasia Pty Ltd, Bass Metals Ltd and Minemakers TTT Pty Ltd.

The consolidated entity is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

Management reviews management accounts on a bi-monthly basis and actual expenditures against budget on a quarterly basis.

(a) Bass Metals Limited unincorporated joint venture

• (i) Bass Metals Limited ("Bass") and Clancy Exploration Limited have a 75% and 25% interest respectively in 1 Tasmanian exploration licence ("tenement"), the Lake Margaret licence and 1 licence under application, the Sock Creek licence in the Mt Read Volcanic Belt in Western Tasmania. Bass Metals will sole fund exploration until completion of a pre-feasibility study. All previous licences were relinquished except for 2 which were transferred in their entirety to the Company pending sale on 25 February 2011 of a 75% interest in each licence under a joint venture agreement with Minemakers TTT Pty Ltd.

• (ii) Joint venture property initially consists of these tenements and all mining information in the possession or control of either party relating to these tenements. It is owned by the parties as tenants in common in proportion to their respective interests. Exploration costs are currently incurred by Bass and there are no joint venture assets or liabilities.

• (iii) Bass as the party holding the majority interest is the manager of the joint venture and all joint venture activities.

• (iv) A management committee has been established with representatives voting in accordance with their joint venture interests.

• (v) Bass, as manager, has duties to maintain the tenements in good standing, comply with approved programs and budgets and incur expenditure.

• (vi) Expenditure is in proportion to joint venture interests. However, Bass has agreed to sole fund the joint venture until the completion of a pre-feasibility study on any one of the tenements. At the time of any withdrawal by Bass the tenements must be in good standing and expenditure commitments met. As at the date of this report, Bass had not withdrawn from the joint venture.

• (vii) The Company has no capital commitments or contingent liabilities in respect of this joint venture.

• (viii) The cost of security deposits in relation to the joint venture tenements has been funded by Bass.

• (ix) Under the provisions of the joint venture agreement, the Company may become entitled to performance shares. These performance share provisions terminate 10 years after the commencement date of the Mount Read Volcanic Belt Intervention Project notice which was agreed as being 20 October 2005, so termination is effectively 20 October 2015. Also the Area of Mutual Interest (“AMI”) provisions of the joint venture agreement state that they expire on the last to occur of 5 years after the date of the agreement (ie 10 May 2010) or termination of the last of the joint ventures then in existence under the agreement. In other words the AMI will continue for as long as the joint venture on the Lake Margaret or Sock Creek exploration licences or any others taken up by Bass in the meantime continues to exist.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

21. COMMITMENTS (Cont’d)

The expenditure commitments relating to 12 of the 26 NSW Government exploration licences (“licences”), have been assumed by the Company‟s joint venture partner Gold Fields Australasia Pty Ltd (“GFA”) (refer note 19) which manages all joint venture projects. Accordingly, these expenditure commitments have been excluded in determining the Company‟s overall commitments at 31 December 2010. The Company can opt to pay an 18.38% contribution on 2, and another 17.62% contribution on 5, of these 12 licences to GFA or alternatively dilute its interests in its joint venture projects according to a prescribed formula. At the date of this report, management had not made a decision as to whether to make a contribution for the March 2011 and subsequent quarters, or not. Accordingly, no contributions have been included with the above expenditure commitments.

There is a combined 2% net smelter royalty payable to third parties in relation to both the exploration licences comprising the Trundle project. It is not possible to ascertain the value of such commitments at the time of this report.

During 2010 and subsequent to the end of the financial year, a further 2 NSW licences were applied for by the Company, 5 licences managed by GFA were consolidated into 2 licences, while one licence formerly managed by GFA was transferred to the Company. Of the 14 licences held by the Company, 4 are pending renewal.

The Company and its subsidiary Geoinformatics Exploration Tasmania Pty Ltd had, at 31 December 2010, a 25% interest in 3 (31 December 2009:4) Tasmanian licences 1 of which is covered by a mining exploration alliance agreement with Bass Metals Ltd (“Bass”), entered into on 10 May 2005, while a further 2 are covered initially by a heads of agreement entered into on 6 October 2010 with Minemakers TTT Pty Ltd (“MTTT”) and which was formalised in a joint venture agreement was signed 25 February 2011. Under these various agreements, responsibility for all remaining commitments to exploration expenditure, in regard to these licences, has been undertaken by Bass and MTTT, who are also managers of this joint venture under this agreement.

Of the 4 Tasmanian licences held at 31 December 2009, 2 were transferred back to the Company during the year pending sale to MTTT and 2 were relinquished by Bass. The Lake Margaret licence applied for in 2009 was granted on 1 March 2010. Bass made application during the year to Mineral Resources Tasmania for a further licence while the Company applied for an extension to its 2 licences. On 3 February 2011 the extension of these licences was granted to 7 August 2011 and 9 August 2011 respectively, thus fulfilling the conditions precedent for their sale to MTTT.

Included in overall commitments calculations are estimates of the Company‟s expected commitments in respect of its sole-funded exploration licences.

All the exploration expenditure commitments are non-binding, in respect of outstanding expenditure commitments, in that the Company or its joint venture partners have the option to relinquish and lose these licences or their contractual commitments at any stage, at the cost of its cumulative expenditures up to the point of relinquishment.

Refer to Note 19 for details of Jointly Controlled Operations.

(b) Operating Lease Commitments

The consolidated entity had a 6 month operating lease on office premises which expired 7 March 2011 and which was renewed until 31 March 2011 with rent payable monthly in advance. In October 2010 it entered into a 24 month lease for office and core shed premises in Orange, NSW. During the year it also entered into a 48 month operating lease for a photocopier-printer. Its operating lease commitments are as follows:

Payable - not later than one year - later than one year and not later than five years	Consolidated Parent 2010 $ 2009 $ 2010 $ 2009 $ 86,280 50,288 86,280 50,288 60,335 - 60,335 -
	146,615 50,288 146,615 50,288

As part of the restructuring of its operations, the position of managing director and exploration manager were combined and moved to the Company‟s operations offices in Orange, NSW. This necessitated the relocation of the exploration manager with the Company making a contractual commitment to bear his relocation expenses of $8,812

22. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

In accordance with normal industry practice the consolidated entity has entered into joint venture operations and farm-in agreements with other parties for the purpose of exploring and developing its mineral interests. If a party to a joint venture defaults and does not contribute its share of joint venture obligations, then the other joint venture partners are liable to meet those obligations. In this event the interest in the tenements held by the defaulting party may be redistributed to the remaining joint venture partners. A contingent liability exists in respect of contributions due to be paid by farm-in partners of the economic entity to some of its joint ventures. However, no material losses are anticipated in respect of any of these contingencies as expenditure commitments, if not recovered from joint venture partners, can be terminated through exploration licence relinquishment at any stage.

Refer to Notes 16 and 17 for the types of share-based payment plans.

The ordinary shares acquired by directors and executives during the year were from on-market trades as well as participation in a rights issue (Refer to note 16 above). The ordinary shares acquired by the directors and executives during 2009 were from on-market trades as well as participation in a rights issue and a share purchase plan.

(e) Amount Receivable From of Key Management Personnel

In 2007 M Stewart took leave in excess of his normal entitlement. This receivable was repaid on 31 December 2010 by way of set-off against long-service leave paid out to him on termination (31 December 2009: $9,186 where this amount had been transferred from Provision for Annual Leave to a separate receivable account). It was interest-free.

(f) Transaction with Related Entity

During the year minor tax advisory services were provided by Maxim Hall Chadwick, an accounting practice in which Mr Lester has an interest. The cost of these services was $2,430 (2009: $900)

Mr Stewart or his nominee, as a client of underwriter Patersons Securities Limited, sub-underwrote for a fee of $650, on same terms and conditions as other sub-underwriters, 625,000 shares ($50,000) in the Company‟s 13 August 2010 renounceable rights issue. This arrangement covered the possible event that a shortfall arose in take up by shareholders of some or all those securities. Under that arrangement no sub-underwriter would acquire voting power in the company of more than 20%. The rights issue closed over-subscribed.

During the 2009, prior to his resignation, N Archibald had his post-employment benefits of $128 - superannuation guarantee contributions paid to Geocrust Pty Ltd (―Geocrust‖). Geocrust was effectively controlled by N Archibald and had a significant shareholding in Kiska Metals Corporation (―KSK‖) (formerly Geoinformatics Exploration Inc) of Vancouver, Canada, a TSX-V listed company which disposed of its 31.4 % (2009: held 37.9%) interest in the issued shares of Clancy on 12 November 2010.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

28. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The consolidated entity‟s principal financial instruments comprise cash, short-term deposits and available-for-sale investments.

The main purpose of these financial instruments is to finance the consolidated entity‟s operations. The consolidated entity has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. It is, and has been throughout the entire period under review, the consolidated entity‟s policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken.

The various categories of the consolidated and parent entity‟s financial instruments and their carrying amounts coincide with the tables below which set out financial instrument exposure to interest rate risk. Accordingly financial instruments are not separately categorised elsewhere.

The main risks arising from the consolidated entity‟s financial instruments are cash flow interest rate risk and equity price risk. Other minor risks are either summarised below or disclosed at Note 9 in the case of credit risk and Note 16 in the case of capital risk management. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks.

• (a) Cash Flow Interest Rate Risk

The consolidated entity‟s exposure to the risks of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the consolidated entity‟s short-term deposits with a floating interest rate. These financial assets with variable rates expose the consolidated entity to cash flow interest rate risk. All other financial assets and liabilities in the form of receivables and payables are non-interest bearing. The consolidated entity does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage interest rate risk. In regard to its interest rate risk, the consolidated entity continuously analyses its exposure. Within this analysis consideration is given to potential renewals of existing positions, alternative investments and the mix of fixed and variable interest rates.

The following tables set out the carrying amount by maturity of the parent entity and consolidated entity‟s exposure to interest rate risk and the effective weighted average interest rate for each class of these financial instruments. Also included is the effect on profit and equity after tax if interest rates at that date had been 30% (2009: 50%) higher or lower with all other variables held constant as a sensitivity analysis.

A sensitivity of 30% (2009: 50%) has been selected as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both short term and long term Australian dollar interest rates. A 30% (2009: 50%) sensitivity would move short term interest rates at 31 December 2010 from around 4.94% representing a 148.1 basis points shift either down to 1.86% or up to 6.42% (2009: from around 3.75% representing a 187.5 basis points shift either down to 3.46% or up to 5.63%). This would represent five to six adjustments either up (2009: four to five increases) which is reasonably possible given conduct of monetary policy by the Reserve Bank of Australia and confirmed by market expectations that interest rates in Australia are more likely to move up than down in the coming period and in the context of continued global economic expansion and growing Australian national income. However interest rates could move down, in the context of:

• a potential economic downturn triggered by rising oil prices as a consequence of current unrest in the Middle East;

• ongoing sovereign debt and budget deficit crises in Europe and related monetary policies adopted by the European and other central banks to stimulate growth; and

• short-term impacts of the Japanese tsunami and nuclear crisis.

Based on the sensitivity analysis only interest revenue from variable rate deposits and cash balances is impacted, resulting in a decrease or increase in overall income.

1 = Term deposits with a maturity of not more than 3 months have been included with short term deposits with floating interest rates.

(b) Price risk

The consolidated entity is not exposed to equity securities price risk at balance date (2009: had exposure arising from investments held and classified on the statement of financial position as available-for-sale. The investments were traded on the ASX).

The following table sets out the carrying amount of the consolidated and parent entity‟s exposure to equity securities price risk on available for sale investments. Also included is the effect on profit and equity after tax if these prices at that date had been higher or lower by the percentage indicated with all other variables held constant as a sensitivity analysis:

Notes	Carrying Amount	Carrying Amount	Price Risk Sensitivity 2010	Price Risk Sensitivity 2010	Price Risk Sensitivity 2010	Price Risk Sensitivity 2010	Price Risk Sensitivity 2009	Price Risk Sensitivity 2009	Price Risk Sensitivity 2009	Price Risk Sensitivity 2009

	2010	2009	Profit	Equity	Profit	Equity	Profit	Equity	Profit	Equity
Financial Assets: Available-for-sale investments 10	- 1,125		- - - -				- - - 732

As the consolidated entity had no exposure to equity securities at 31 December 2010 no sensitivity was applicable (2009: 65% was selected as this was considered reasonable given trending and volatilities of both Australian and international stock markets at that time and more specifically in relation to the narrow portfolio of investments then held).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

28. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Cont'd)

(c) Liquidity risk

The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash reserves (2009: and marketable securities), and through the continuous monitoring of budgeted and actual cash flows. Further, the consolidated entity only invests surplus cash with major financial institutions.

Contracted maturities of payables year ended 31 December:

Contracted maturities of payables year ended 31 December:

	298,474 349,507 298,474 349,507

(d) Commodity Price Risk

The consolidated entity is exposed to commodity price risk. This risk arises from its activities directed at exploration and development of mineral commodities. If commodity prices fall, the market for companies exploring for these commodities is affected. The consolidated entity does not hedge its exposures.

(e) Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity‟s functional currency. The consolidated entity‟s foreign transactions are immaterial and it is not exposed to foreign currency risk.

(f) Fair values

For financial assets and liabilities, the net fair value approximates their carrying value. No financial assets and financial liabilities are readily traded on organised markets in standardised form, other than listed investments, when held. The consolidated entity has no financial assets where carrying amount exceeds net fair values at balance date.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Directors of Clancy Exploration Limited

DX: 206 Tel: +61 (0) 8 9365 7000 Fax: +61 (8) 9365 7001 www.deloitte.com.au

Report on the Financial Report

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Clancy Exploration Limited, which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2010, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of cash flows and the statement of changes in equity for the year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the company and the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year as set out on pages 12 to 54.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 2c, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply 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. Those 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 judgment, 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 of the financial report that gives a true and fair view, 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 opinion.

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation. Member of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited

Auditor’s Independence Declaration

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 , which has been given to the directors of Clancy Exploration Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.

Opinion

In our opinion:

• (a) the financial report of Clancy Exploration Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

• (i) giving a true and fair view of the company’s and consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2010 and of their performance for the year ended on that date; and

• (ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001; and

• (b) the financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 2c.

Material Uncertainty Regarding Going Concern

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 2 b in the financial report which indicates that the consolidated entity and parent entity incurred a net loss of $2,743,959 and $2,743,747 respectively during the year ended 31 December 2010 and experienced total cash outflows from operating activities of $2,944,798 and $2,944,798 respectively. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2 b, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the ability of the consolidated entity and parent entity to continue as going concerns and whether they will realise their assets and extinguish their liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

Report on the Remuneration Report

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 4 to 8 of the directors’ report for the year ended 31 December 2010. The directors of the company 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.

Opinion

In our opinion the Remuneration Report of Clancy Exploration Limited for the year ended 31 December 2010, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001 .
