Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013
Red Mountain Mining Ltd and its controlled entities
Dear fellow shareholder,
immense price and performance pressures, particularly for junior explorers and miners, I am pleased to report to you that against this trend, Red Mountain has achieved substantial project progress.
This level of success is not in isolation. It is in line with our strategy to emerge, in time, as a significant gold producer in the highly prospective regions of the Philippines.
It is also aligned fully with our enunciated business plan to introduce Australian mining methods and efficiencies to gain significant exploration and production upside,and to emerge as a multi-project gold developer and producer across market recognition of our achievements and aspirations.
, in the just eight months to balance date, from our formal acquisition of the flagship brownfields Batangas gold project on Luzon Island, south of Manila, plus a 75% interest in the Tapian San Francisco copper-gold project on Mindanao, means Red Mountain has bedded down solidly our first stepping stone to achieving our longer term vision.
It gives me great pleasure therefore, to present to you from your Board, its Annual Report on the performance of the Company for the 12 months to 30 June 2013.
Our work in that time has confirmed JORC Indicated and Inferred gold resources of 5.8 million tonnes at an average grade of 2.2 grams per tonne gold for 408,000 ounces of gold (using a 0.85 g/t Au lower cut off) at Batangas and demonstrated high-grade potential exploration upside.
To put this in to context, Red Mountain has drilled a total of 5,354 metres of diamond core at Batangas up to 30 June 2013. A further 3,200 metres of drilling and a development scoping study is planned for 2013-2014. This work is already underway. New extensional and resource definition drilling campaigns, post balance date, based around prudent expenditure on only the optimal near surface high-grade targets, are aimed at increasing the size and grade of the overall Batangas gold resource, particularly around the broader but under-explored Lobo prospect area .
We plan also to complete a scoping study to demonstrate the high cash-flow potential of a 500,000 tonnes per annum gold mining and processing project, combining gold resources from both Archangel and Lobo within Batangas, to generate maiden output of up to 35,000 ounces of gold per year for up to 10 years. The scoping study and how it points to future project financing options for Batangas and Red Mountain, will be a key outcome for your Company in the next 12 months.
That the past year was difficult in terms of share price performance across the junior sector cannot be denied. There has been a significant drop-off in speculative investment in explorers, by both retail and sophisticated investors alike. Red Mountain did not escape this broader share price decline but we believe our strategy, and our discovery success in just eight months, has established the groundwork for building sustainable shareholder value in the short to medium term.

Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013
Red Mountain Mining Ltd and its controlled entities
It was pleasing to note during the period under review, that the Philippines Government adopted new Executive Orders fast track its approvals processes. This will generate higher levels of sustainability in what is a very well established and taxation and royalty adjustments are still being determined, Red Mountain believes any minor adjustment upwards of royalty obligations can be realistically accommodated within new mine development planning and costings.
Another positive outcome was a re-rating by Standard and Poors to BB+ from BBBment grade a decision analysts believe will favour a more competitive environment for the future financing or joint venturing of mining projects in the Philippines.
ners or project owners is now at least comparable to or better than other more recognised international mining jurisdictions. We believe this may attract over the next decade, more Australian involvement back into the South East Asian corridor after our se the past ten years or so primarily into Africa and Latin America.
At a financial level, your Company launched, prior to balance date, and successfully issued post balance date, a capital exploration drilling programs and development studies planned for 2013-2014, including funding for the scoping study.
The success of the capital raising, against an unsympathetic equities market for juniors, means Red Mountain is now fully funded to conduct all of its current scheduled exploration and drilling campaigns. The Company remains debt free.
So our objectives for 2013-2014 are very clear. Complete the resource upgrade and additional drilling, complete the scoping study and, if favourable, initiate final permitting and feasibility studies to continue down the pathway towards achieving first gold production.
I thank sincerely my fellow Directors, our strong management team and our advisors, for their commitment, input and guidance over the past year. They have answered every challenge to ensure that we establish a pathway to build value for you, our shareholders. I would personally like to thank Keith Rowe who resigned as a Director during the year for his efforts and contribution since the company was incorporated in 2006.
Thank you for your support. We welcome your continued partnership with Red Mountain as we look to a promising year ahead.

Map of the Batangas Gold Project Tenements and gold Mineral Resources
The Batangas project is located within a well-mineralised belt of Luzon Island consisting of gold and copper-gold mineralised and pervasively altered andesitic volcanics, intruded by diorite and dacite intrusives, which are overlain in places by younger volcanic sequences.
Gold mineralisation at Archangel is associated with extensive quartz stockwork veining and hydrothermal breccia s hosted by shallow dipping andesitic volcanics. Gold mineralisation at Lobo is associated with a series of five parallel epithermal lode structures and breccias that have been mapped over a combined strike length of 15 kilometres.
Drilling programs were completed at Archangel, testing for high-grade resource extensions, and Lobo, testing the West Drift and Pica epithermal vein structures, for a total of 28 diamond drillholes for 5,354 metres (m).
Archangel Drilling
Following acquisition of the project in October 2012, a 10 diamond drill hole program for a total of 1,793 m was completed at Archangel, with the objectives of better defining and structurally orienting the higher grade zones for Mineral Resource estimation, and testing for potential extensions to higher-grade zones at depth below the Mineral Resources. The program was successful and produced several significant intersections including from the Kay Tanda

Lobo Epithermal Gold Project
A review of available data at the Lobo project at Batangas, highlighted potential for the discovery of additional highgrade gold mineralisation within the over 15 kilometre strike-length of epithermal vein-breccia structures that have been mapped at Lobo. The initial resource defined at Lobo is the South West Breccia (SWB) Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 194,000 tonnes grading 7.2 g/t Au containing 45,000 ozs Au, that remains open below 150m vertical depth. Other potential epithermal gold shoots were identified based on previous drilling and surface sampling at West Drift, below the old Lobo copper mine, Japanese Tunnel, 150m southwest and along strike from the SWB resource and at Pica, where previous drilling intersected high-grade epithermal gold veining.
A two pronged strategy was developed to drill test the initial targets and trench sample other identified outcropping epithermal vein structures with the ultimate objective of increasing high-grade mineral resources at Lobo and on the greater Batangas project generally.
Subsequently, drilling commenced to test the West Drift epithermal lode structure on the 27 November 2012 and a trenching program was commenced at SWB, immediately to the southwest of SWB at Japanese Tunnel, and other new areas including Ulupong and Calumpang (see map below).

The initial drilling of the West Drift structure tested below the historic Lobo copper mine, where drilling by the previous owner intersected 9.3m @ 14.53 g/t Au from 136.5m, indicating a generally increasing gold grade with depth within the structure. Initial drilling confirmed the presence of a high-grade, shallow plunging, epithermal gold shoot and the program was continued with the completion of 16 holes for 3,331m. The drilling defined the vertical extent of a shallow plunging high grade gold shoot, located between ~100m and 150m below surface. High-grade results including LB 76: 5.2m @ 6.05 g/t Au from 138.25m; LB 67: 4.6m @ 5.83 g/t Au and 4.1% Copper (Cu) from 152.8m and LB 70: 6m @ 8.03 g/t Au from 197.8m are associated with a moderately plunging flexure or bend in the lode structure. The interpreted shoot has been defined over a 200m strike length and 50m dip-length and is open to the south(west) and north(east) (see longitudinal projection, below).

West Drift Epithermal Gold Shoot, Longitudinal Projection
The completion of the initial drilling phase at West Drift has allowed interpretation and resource modeling (in progress) shallow plunging shoot and for repeats of the gold shoot at depth.
Following the West Drift program the Company completed two diamond drillholes for 230.5m at the Pica Prospect, at the northern end of the Lobo Project (see Lobo Compilation Map above). Multiple epithermal veins were intersected by the two drillholes, producing peak intersections of PC-05: 5m at 4.28 g/t Au and 15.75 g/t Ag from 22.4m downhole including 1.3m at 9.49 g/t Au, 21.5 g/t Ag and PC-06: 1.7m at 4.4 g/t Au and 34.8 g/t Ag from 58.10m downhole.

The cluster of vein structures intersected by PC-05 and PC-06 are interpreted to dip both shallowly to the south ~~e~~ astand steeply to the west (see cross section below) and remains open in all directions. Mapping by Red Mountain Mining has located northeast-southwest striking extensions to the Pica vein structure which has been mapped over a more than two kilometre strike length.
Further drilling has being planned for the 2014 financial year to test for extensions to the high grade mineralisation intersected at Pica, and potentially define a near surface gold and silver resource.

Japanese Tunnel - SWB Longitudinal Projection with Exploration Target drilling
Drilling and trenching of the outcropping, high-grade gold epithermal vein/lode mineralisation at Pica and Japanese Tunnel has produced high-grade gold results but data is of insufficient density to allow estimation of Mineral Resources at this stage. As such, based on drilled and sampled outcropping mineralisation, Exploration Targets have been estimated for the Pica and Japanese Tunnel Prospects, totaling in a range of 400,000 tonnes to 700,000 tonnes grading from 3.6 g/t gold equivalent (Au equ.) to 5.3 g/t Au equ. for 45,000 Au equ. ounces to 120,000 Au equ. ounces, (see Table 2 for details). The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and there is insufficient exploration to estimate Mineral Resources and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in the estimation of Mineral Resources.

Results from the first five drillholes completed in the program were released on the 26 August and 13 September 2013 and included diamond drillhole LB-82, which intersected 8.7m at 4.34 g/t Au, 13.8 g/t Ag, 0.89% Cu from 2.9m downhole depth including 3.7m @ 8.62 g/t Au, 26.9 g/t Ag, 1.66% Cu and including 0.55m @ 16.8 g/t Au, 9.0 g/t Ag, 1.71% Cu and diamond drill hole LB-85, which intersected 3.7m at 3.06 g/t Au, 8.7 g/t Ag and 2.26 % Cu from 12.3m downhole depth including 1.55m @ 5.97g/t Au, 18.4 g/t Ag, 4.88% Cu and including 0.5m @ 9.7 g/t Au, 34.8 g/t Ag, 8.29% Cu.
The initial results from Japanese Tunnel are very encouraging have confirmed exploration potential to extend the mineralization to the northeast, towards the next epithermal breccia-lode outcrop 60m distant that produced a peak assay of 3.79 g/t Au , and to the southwest, where mapping has determined that the structure potentially continues at least 700m before it is covered by a veneer of post-mineralisation limestone. The next appearance of epithermal quartz in this direction is 1.5 km to the southwest at Signal, where previous rockchip samples of sub-cropping epithermal quartz-barite lode graded up to 72.6 g/t Au .
Following compilation of results further drilling at Japanese Tunnel will focus on extending the mineralization and defining a maiden resource.

Surface mapping and trenching also discovered a new high-grade epithermal gold vein at the Lobo project, approximately 1 kilometre southeast of SWB. A continuous 19m surface channel of 1m spaced samples along the strike of an exposed epithermal quartz-barite vein produced an intersection of 19m @ 9.77 g/t gold including 7m @ 23.58 g/t gold and including 0.8m @ 94.78 g/t gold .
The vein is at the western end of an extensive zone of anomalous gold soil geochemistry at Ulupong-Sawahan that extends for more than two kilometres in a northeast-southwest direction, sub parallel to the South West Breccia and West Drift epithermal gold vein systems. Further sampling is in progress along the trend and includes results of 6.63 g/t Au and 67.4 g/t Ag from sub-cropping quartz-sulphide boulders in the Bigaan-Ulupong area, which is located approximately 800m along strike to the northeast of the original high grade trench.

Recent Trenching at Ulupong Prospect, Chief Geologist, Ed Manuel on left
The Philippines based exploration team continues to identify new epithermal vein discoveries that are being mapped and sampled with the objective of defining new drilling targets. New areas of sampling include the Calumpang, Camo and Far Northeast prospects, all of which are characterised by higher silver grades, indicative of being higher in the geological system above a preserved gold shoot at shallow depth.
Drilling of the high-grade gold targets will continue with the objective of increasing the Batangas Mineral Resource base.
Based on the current resource, and the anticipated resource increase, the Company plans to complete a scoping study into project processing alternatives and associated capital and operating costs of mining and processing approximately 550,000 tonnes of open pitable gold resource material and producing up to 30,000 ounces of gold per annum for 10

EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS FOR 2013 2014
The Company has commenced a drilling program designed to test near surface, high-grade Exploration Targets, initially at Japanese Tunnel and Pica on the Lobo project.
The drilling program is expected to be completed in two stages, with the initial stage confirming the thickness and grade of the previously drilled and/or trench channel sampled gold mineralisation then a second stage of extension and infill drilling with the objective of increasing and upgrading Mineral Resources at Lobo and on the Batangas project as a whole.
Trenching and soil sampling will be continued in new prospect areas throughout the Batangas project, including at Archangel, with the objective of defining further drilling targets for future resource growth.
In addition, the Company plans to complete a Scoping Study to demonstrate the viability of a gold mining project. Based on the current resource, and the anticipated mineral resource additions, the Scoping Study will examine project processing alternatives and associated capital and operating costs of mining and processing approximately 550,000 tonnes of open pitable gold resource material and producing approximately up to 30,000 ounces of gold per annum for over 10 years. If the outcomes of the scoping study are sufficiently positive, the Company will aim to complete project permitting and a definitive feasibility study during 2014.

Option pricing models assume that the exercise of an option does not affect the value of the underlying asset.
The Group measures the cost of cash-settled share-based payments at fair value at the grant date using the Black and Scholes formula taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted, as discussed below.

Corporate Governance Statement
| ASX Corporate Governance Principle | Company Comments | |
| 1 | Lay solid foundations for management and oversight | |
| 1.1 | Companies should establish the functions reserved to the Board and those delegated to senior executives and disclose those functions. |
The Board has adopted a Corporate Governance Statement (set out on the company's website) which discloses the specific responsibilities of the Board and provides that the Managing Director is responsible for running the affairs of the Company under delegated authority from the Board. |
| 1.2 | Companies should disclose the process for evaluating the performance of senior executives. |
The Chairperson and/or the Managing Director are responsible for reviewing the performance of each executive at least once every calendar year with reference to the terms of their employment contract. |

| 2 | Structure the board to add value | |
| 2.1 | A majority of the Board should be independent. |
Currently the Board is comprised of only one independent Director, Michael Wolley. The Chairman, Mr Neil Warburton, is not considered independent as he held an executive role from 3 April 2012 to 1 May 2013. Managing Director, Mr Jon Dugdale, is not considered independent as a result of his current executive role. Notwithstanding that the current composition of the Board does not meet the requirements of ASX Principle 2, the Board considers that the composition of the Board is adequate for the Company's current size and operations, and includes an appropriate mix of skills and expertise, relevant to the Company's business.

Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013
Red Mountain Mining Ltd and its controlled entities NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) General Information
Red Mountain Mining Limited ( Company ) is a limited company incorporated in Australia. The address of its registered office is Unit 1, 2 Richardson Street, West Perth, Western Australia.
(b) Statement of Compliance
Red Mountain Mining is a for-profit entity. These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Accounting Standards (IFRS), other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 .
These financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of Red Mountain Mining and its controlled entities ( the Group ).
(c) Basis of preparation of the financial report
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost convention and the accrued basis, as explained in the accounting policies below.
(d) Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards
The Company has adopted all the new and revised AIFRSs that are relevant to its operations and effective for the reporting period starting from 1 July 2012.
At the date of authorisation of the financial statements, the Company has not applied the new Standards and Interpretations that were in issue but not yet effective.
(e) Critical accounting judgments and the key sources of estimation uncertainty
estimates and assumptions about carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects both current and future periods. Refer to note 3 for further details.
(f) Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all entities controlled by the Company as at 30 June 2013 and the results of all controlled entities for the financial year then ended. The Company and its controlled entities together are referred to in this financial report as the Group or the Consolidated Entity.
Subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group.
54
Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013
Red Mountain Mining Ltd and its controlled entities NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised income and expenses on transactions between group companies are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
(g)
Segment reporting
Operating segments are components of the Group that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses. They are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting to the chief operating decision makers. The chief operating decision makers, who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, have been identified as the
(h)
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised and measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Consolidated Entity and the revenue can be measured reliably. The following specific criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportionate basis using the effective interest method.
All revenue stated is net of
(i)
Income tax
income based on the income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.
(j)
Imputation Credits
Pursuant to AASB 1054, Imputation Credits that will arise from the payment of the amount of the provision for income tax or the receipt of dividends are recognized as receivables at the reporting date. The disclosure of Imputation Credits shall be made separately in respect of any Australian imputation credits. To date, the Imputation Credits for the financial year ended 30 June 2013 is nil.
55
Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013
Red Mountain Mining Ltd and its controlled entities NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(k) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.
(l) Trade receivables
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less provision for doubtful debts. Trade receivables are due for settlement no more than 120 days from the date of recognition.
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the provision is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
(m)
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position.
Financial Assets
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments, loans and receivables, and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and re-evaluates this designation at each reporting date.
(1) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the Group provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivable. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting sheet date which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in receivables in the statement of financial position.
Financial Liabilities and equity instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements.
Financial liabilities are non-derivative financial liabilities that are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Upon initial recognition, they are measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Recognition and derecognition
56
Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013
Red Mountain Mining Ltd and its controlled entities NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on a trade date basis the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial liability is recognised when the Group becomes a party of the contractual provision of the financial instrument.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards carrying value and the sum of consideration received and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligations specified in the contract are discharged or cancelled or expire. Upon derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount of liability derecognized and consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss.
(n) Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid 30 days end of month. Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.
(o)
Contributed equity
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.
(p) Earnings per share
- (1) Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.
(2) Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(q) Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office is included with other receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
57
Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013
Red Mountain Mining Ltd and its controlled entities NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the Australian Taxation Office, are presented as operating cash flow.
(r) Foreign currency translation
Both the functional and the presentation currency of Red Mountain Mining Limited is the Australian Dollar.
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency at the rate prevailing at that transaction date. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Gains and losses arising from this translation policy are recognised in profit or loss.
The functional currency of Red Mountain Mining (Hong Kong) Holdings Ltd is the Hong Kong Dollar. The functional currency of Red Mountain Mining Consulting (Shenyang) Co Ltd is the Chinese Yuan. The functional currency of Red Mounting Mining (Singapore) Pte Ltd is Singapore Dollar. The functional currency of MRL Gold Inc and Egerton Gold Philippines Inc is Philippines Peso.
At the reporting date the assets and liabilities of the overseas subsidiaries are translated into presentation currency of Red Mountain Mining Limited at the rate prevailing at the reporting date and the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. Resulting exchange differences are recognised in equity.
(s)
Impairment of assets
Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the ass grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units).
The discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the profit or loss immediately. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years.
A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in the profit or loss immediately.
(t) Property, plant and equipment
Each class of equipment is carried at cost value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Equipment is measured on the cost basis less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
The carrying amount of equipment is reviewed annually by the Board to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.
Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straightlife to the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

reporting period.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains or losses are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation surplus relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.
(u) Provisions for employee benefits
disability or death or can direct the group to make contributions to a defined contribution plan of their section. The defined benefit section provides defined lump sum benefits based on years of service and final average salary. The defined contribution section receives fixed contributions from group companies and
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit superannuation plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised past service costs. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using market yields of government bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. In countries where there is a deep market in high-quality corporate bonds, the market rates on those bonds are used.
Actuarial gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income.
Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the changes to the superannuation fund are conditional on the employees remaining in service for a specified period of time (the vesting period). In this case, the past service costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
independent defined contribution superannuation funds are recognised as an expense as they become payable. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
(v)
Operating Lease
A lease that does not substantially transfer to the Group all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets are accounted for as operating lease. For operating leases, lease payments (excluding costs for services such as insurance and maintenance) are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013

(w) Mineral exploration, evaluation and development expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest where we have the right of tenure. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit or loss in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are transferred to Mine Properties and amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.
A regular review for impairment is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
Costs of site restoration are provided over the life of the facility from when exploration commences and are included in the costs of that stage. Site restoration costs include the dismantling and removal of mining plant, equipment and building structures, waste removal, and rehabilitation of the site in accordance with clauses of the mining permits. Such costs have been determined using estimates of future costs, current legal requirements and technology on a discounted basis.
Any changes in the estimates for the costs are accounted on a prospective basis. In determining the costs of site restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration due to community expectations and future legislation. Accordingly the costs have been determined on the basis that the restoration will be completed within one year of abandoning the site.
(x) Share-based payment transactions
Equity settled transactions:
The Group provides benefits to employees (including senior executives) in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions).
There is currently an Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) in place to provide these benefits to directors, senior executives and employees.
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using a Black-Scholes model, further details of which are given in Note 22.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Red Mountain Mining Ltd (market conditions), if applicable.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting period).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects:
(i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest.
No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The statement of profit or loss

Red Mountain Mining Annual Financial Report 30 June 2013
Red Mountain Mining Ltd and its controlled entities NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
and other comprehensive income charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is only conditional upon a market condition.
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. In addition, an 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 had 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.

Fair value measurements
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.
AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:
-
quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1)
-
inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (level 2), and
-
inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (level 3).
All financial assets and liabilities have been recognised at the reporting date at their net fair values.
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivable and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturity.
- Receivables and payables: The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Price risk
The Group is not exposed to equity securities price risk as it holds no investments in securities classified on the statement of financial position either as available-for-sale or at fair value through profit or loss. The Group is not exposed directly to commodity price risk.
(iii) Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group.
Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount. The Group does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to the customers. The credit risk of the Group arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks and financial institutions, available- for-sale financial assets, as well as credit exposure to customers, including outstanding receivables. For banks and financial institutions, only independently r
are accepted. The Group assesses credit risk and allowance for doubtful accounts on a customer specific basis. The Group has adopted the policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties. As of 30 June 2013 and 2012, the Group does not have an allowance for doubtful debt accounts.
Credit risk further arises during the financial year ended 30 June 2013 as a result of the acquisition of -gold assets in the Philippines. The maximum credit risk exposure of the Group at 30 June 2013 is $991,235 (2012: $4,380,150). There are no impaired receivables at 30 June 2013 (2012: Nil).
recognised financial asset is the carrying amount, net of any provision for doubtful debts, of those assets as indicated in the statement of financial position.

Note 3. Critical accounting estimates and judgments and assumptions
(i) Significant accounting judgments
The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.
(ii) Exploration and evaluation assets
note 1(w). The
application of this policy necessarily requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstances, in particular, the assessment of whether economic quantities of reserves are found. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalised expenditure under this policy, the Directors conclude that the Group is unlikely to recover the expenditure by future exploration or sale, then the relevant capitalised amount will be written off to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
(iii) Share-based payment transactions
The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled sharebased payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity.

(ii) the Company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and

(i) Gold exploration
Segment assets, including acquisition cost of exploration licenses and all expenses related to the tenements in Philippines are reported on in this segment.
(ii) Corporate
Corporate, including treasury, corporate and regulatory expenses arising from operating an ASX listed entity. Segment assets, including cash and cash equivalents, and investments in financial assets are reported in this segment.

Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to operating segments are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Company.
Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of economic value from the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.
Unless indicated otherwise in the segment assets note, deferred tax assets and intangible assets have not been allocated to operating segments.

Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment.
