CLANCY EXPLORATION LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

The condensed consolidated financial report of Clancy Exploration Limited (―the Company‖) for the half-year ended 30 June 2011 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 13th September 2011.

Clancy Exploration is a company incorporated in Australia and limited by shares which are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The half-year financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included within the annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the consolidated entity as the full financial report.

The half-year financial report should be read in conjunction with the annual Financial Report of Clancy Exploration Limited for the year ended 31 December 2010.

It is also recommended that the half-year financial report be considered together with any public announcements made by Clancy Exploration Limited and its controlled entities (‗the Group‘) during the half-year ended 30 June 2011 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations arising under the Corporations Act 2001.

(a) Basis of Preparation

The half-year condensed consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirement of the Corporations Act 2001 , applicable Accounting Standards, including AASB 134 ―Interim Financial Reporting‖ and other mandatory professional reporting requirements. The half-year financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the revaluation of financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars unless otherwise noted.

For the purpose of preparing the half-year financial report, the half-year has been treated as a discrete reporting period.

(b) Changes in accounting policies

From 1 January 2011 the Group has adopted the following standards and interpretations, mandatory for annual reporting periods beginning 1 January 2011. Adoption of these standards and interpretations did not have any effect on the financial position or performance of the Group.

  • (i) AASB 124 (Revised) Related Party Disclosures;

  • (ii) AASB 2009-12 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASBs 5, 8, 108, 110, 112, 119, 133, 137, 139, 1023 & 1031 and Interpretations 2, 4, 16, 1039 & 1052];

  • (iii) AASB 2009-13 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Interpretation 19 [AASB1];

  • (iv) AASB Int. 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments;

  • (v) AASB 2009-14 Amendments to Australian Interpretation – Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement [AASB Interpretation 1];

7

CLANCY EXPLORATION LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

(b) Changes in accounting policies (Continued)

  • (vi) AASB 2010-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting – Limited Exemption from Comparative AASB 7 Disclosures for First-time Adopters;

  • (vii) AASB 2010-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project [AASB 3, AASB 7, AASB 121, AASB 128, AASB 131, AASB 132 & AASB139];

  • (viii) AASB 2010-4 Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project [AASB 1, AASB 7, AASB 101, AASB 134 and Interpretation 13];

  • (ix) AASB 2010-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 101, 107, 112, 118, 119, 121, 132, 133, 134, 137, 139, 140, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 112, 115, 127, 132 & 1042];

The Group has not elected to early adopt any new standards or amendments.

(c) Significant accounting policies

The half-year condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010 except for the adoption of amending standards mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011, as described above in Note 2(b).

(d)

Basis of consolidation

The half-year condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Clancy Exploration Limited and its controlled subsidiary.

(e) New Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted

New accounting standards and interpretation have been published which are not mandatory for the 31 December 2011 financial year. Any options for early adoption have not been applied in the preparation of this financial report. The following amendments to standards and interpretations have been identified as those which may impact the entity in the period of initial application:

AASB 9: Financial Instruments. Amendments to AASB 9. Adoption of amended AASB 9 is likely to result in changes in the way in which the Group classifies financial assets on or after 1 January 2013.

AASB 2009-11: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9. This standard gives effect to the consequential changes arising from the issuance of AASB 9: Financial Instruments and will impact the Group on or after 1 January 2013.

AASB 1053: Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards. Establishes a differential financial reporting framework comprising two tiers of reporting requirements for preparing general purpose financial statements:

Tier 1: Australian Accounting Standards which applies to for-profit entities in the private sector that have public accountability, as defined by this Standard and Australian Government and State, Territory and Local Governments.

8

CLANCY EXPLORATION LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

(e) New Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted (Continued)

Tier 2: Australian Accounting Standards – Reduced Disclosure Requirements which applies to for-profit entities in the private sector that do not have public accountability, all not for profit private sector entities and public sector entities other than the Australian Government and State, Territory and Local Governments. While comprising the recognition, measurement and presentation requirements of Tier 1, the disclosures corresponding to those requirements are substantially reduced.

As the Group is a for-profit entity in the private sector with public accountability, this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Group's financial statements when it becomes effective on 1 July 2013.

AASB 2010-2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Reduced Disclosure Requirements: Gives effect to Australian Accounting Standards AASB 1053. It will not have any impact on the Group's financial statements as the Group, being listed on the ASX, is classified as a reporting entity and accordingly this standard will not apply to it statements when it becomes effective on 1 July 2013.

AASB 2010-6: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosures on Transfers of Financial Assets [AASB 1 & AASB7]: The amendments increase the disclosure requirements for transactions involving transfers of financial assets. Disclosures require enhancements to the existing disclosures in IFRS 7 where an asset is transferred but is not derecognised and introduce new disclosures for assets that are derecognised but the entity continues to have a continuing exposure to the asset after the sale.

This standard is not expected to have any impact on the Group's financial statements when they become effective on 1 July 2011 as no assets have been or are being transferred.

AASB 2010-7: Amendments to IFRS 9: Fair Value Option for Financial Liabilities: The requirements for classifying and measuring financial liabilities were added to AASB 9. The existing requirements for the classification of financial liabilities and the ability to use the fair value option have been retained. However, where the fair value option is used for financial liabilities the change in fair value is accounted for as follows:

  • (a) The change attributable to changes in credit risk are presented in other comprehensive income (OCI); and

  • (b) The remaining change is presented in profit or loss.

If this approach creates or enlarges an accounting mismatch in the profit or loss, the effect of the changes in credit risk are also presented in profit or loss.

Adoption of this pending standard is likely to result in changes in the way in which the Group discloses financial liabilities. The Group has been unable to assess (as at authorisation of these financial statements) the financial impact of these changes on the Group‘s financial statements in the period of initial application when they become effective on 1 January 2013.

9

CLANCY EXPLORATION LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

(e) New Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted (Continued)

AASB 2010-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets: Amends AASB 112 Income Taxes to provide a presumption that recovery of the carrying amount of an asset measured using the fair value model in IAS 40 Investment Property will, normally, be through sale. Consequently, Interpretation 112 Income Taxes — Recovery of Revalued Non-Depreciable Assets would no longer apply to investment properties carried at fair value. The amendments also incorporate into AASB 112 the remaining guidance previously contained in Interpretation 112, which is accordingly withdrawn.

Adoption of Revised AASB 2010-8 is not expected to have any impact on the Group's financial statements when they become effective on 1 January 2012 as the Group does not have any investment properties.

(f)

Segment Reporting

A geographical segment is a distinguishable component of the entity that 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 company operates in a single business segment, in one geographical location. The operations of the consolidated entity consist of gold and copper exploration and development, within Australia. Accordingly, no segment information is presented in this halfyear financial report.

(i) Pursuant to the prospectus issued 3 May 2011, 54,756,724 ordinary shares and 54,756,724 free attaching options were issued in June 2011, at a subscription price of 8 cents per share, as a result of a one for two non-renounceable rights offer. These shares were listed on the Australian Securities Exchange on 24 June 2011. The offering successfully raised $4,380,538 before costs of the issue. According to its interpretation of AASB 139 the company is required to determine the value of the free attaching options and using that value, apportion part of the proceeds of the share issue to the options reserve. These options were valued at $733,740 according to the Binomial Tree method with an exercise price of 15 cents when the market trading price was 6.3 cents, a volatility factor of 75.4% and a risk free rate of 4.69%.

Independent Auditor’s Review Report to the Members of Clancy Exploration Limited

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Clancy Exploration Limited, which comprises the condensed statement of financial position as at 30 June 2011, and the condensed statement of comprehensive income, the condensed statement of cash flows and the condensed statement of changes in equity for the half-year ended on that date, selected explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the end of the half-year or from time to time during the half-year as set out on pages 3 to 15.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year 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 half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2011 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of Clancy Exploration Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

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

Auditor’s Independence Declaration

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , 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 auditors review report.

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

Conclusion

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

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2011 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

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