DIRECTORS' REPORT
WEST MUSGRAVE
E69/2450 – 100% Redstone
Redstone Resources Ltd (ASX: RDS) is a Perth-based company focused on highly prospective copper exploration properties in the West Musgrave region of Western Australia.
Redstone's 100% owned E69/2450 tenement is located in the south-east portion of the West Musgrave region of Western Australia. The tenement is located immediately south of a deep-seated crustal suture and hosts Proterozoic-aged volcanic, sedimentary and intrusive rocks that were formed in a failed intra-cratonic rift setting. This has been determined on the basis of evaluating the geodynamic setting, stratigraphic architecture, fluid reservoirs, flow drivers, fluid pathways and mechanisms for metal deposition. Projects identified to-date include the:
- Tollu Project.
- Atlas Project
- Babylon Project
- Pompeii Project.
- Pergamon Project.
- Herculaneum Project

DIRECTORS' REPORT
Tollu Project
(E69/2450) – 100% Redstone
The Tollu Project consists of a large swarm of hydrothermal copper rich quartz veins in a mineralised system covering an area at least 5km2 . Malachite-rich gossans associated with quartz veins are exposed at surface and form part of a dilatational system between two major structures within the Tollu Fault Zone.
The Company has renamed its existing prospects within the Tollu Project and has identified further prospects within the Tollu Project. There are now 16 prospects in total within the Tollu Project. The Company has also identified the potential for a number of other projects on the Tollu tenement (E69/2450) in addition to the Tollu Project.,
The initial focus is on the Chatsworth Prospect, the Eastern Reef Prospect, the Main Reef Prospect and the Dawyck Prospect.

Tollu Project – Conceptual Exploration Target
During the year Redstone defined an increased Conceptual Exploration Target (Target) for the Tollu Project of 22 to 33 million tonnes of mineralisation at a conceptual grade range of 0.9 - 1.3% Cu, containing 198,000 to 445,000 tonnes of copper. This includes an estimate of 4.3 to 6.4 million tonnes of mineralisation at a conceptual grade range of 1.6 - 2.4%, containing 69,000 to 154,000 tonnes of copper on the Chatsworth Prospect.
The potential quantity and grade of the Target is conceptual in nature. It is important to note that there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.
ACN 090 169 154
DIRECTORS' REPORT
This Target is based on the current geological understanding of the mineralised outcrop area at Tollu and coupled with geophysical evidence to suggest that the mineralised environment extends beneath cover to the north and south. Table 1 describes the Target breakdown by Prospect.
The Tollu deposit is located in a large, reverse fault system where Cu mineralisation is focused into low stress dilatational jog positions along a north-south structural corridor (Figure 5). High grade Cu mineralisation appears to be constrained to late stage veining within the dilatational positions which results in a limited strike length of the mineralisation. Drilling at the Project has showed these mineralised jogs have a steep plunge competent which has been tested down to a vertical depth of 360 metres. Mineralised jog positions occur at relatively regular intervals of 100 – 300 metres along the structural corridor.
Geophysical interpretation suggests this structural corridor extends up to 30 km to the north of the Tollu deposit and acts as a transform structure from the Tjuni Purlka Tectonic Zone, a deep-seated crustal suture. For the purpose of the Target estimation, it is assumed that these reoccurring mineralised pods extend 2 km beneath cover to the north and 1 km to the south of the known mineralisation at Tollu (Figure 5).

Target Parameters
Geology
A field visit was completed by BM Geological Services (BMGS), Redstone's geological consultants, in March 2014 to gather additional data for the purpose of constructing this Target. Outcropping vein geometries were mapped and measured in detail with emphasis placed on paragenesis of mineralisation.
Field observations identified that phases of mineralised quartz veining are located within low stress, dilatational jogs caused by the reactivation of a regional scale reverse fault (Tollu Fault) (Table 2). The Tollu Fault has been interpreted as a deep-seated transform structure of the NW-SE striking Tjuni Purlka Tectonic Zone situated to the north (Figure 6).
An early, uniform, phase of veining appears to be related to an initial structural phase (probably reverse faulting) and is characterised by unmineralised, banded, ferruginous quartz (Table 2). This initial veining is interpreted to represent the primary structural architecture. Subsequent reactivation of this structure has created dilatational jog positions which have been exploited by mineralised fluids. Several quartz vein phases have intruded during this reactivation and at least two of these phases appear to be mineralised (Table 2). The mineralised vein phases are lenticular in shape which limits their strike width and length.
| Structural Phase | Veining Type | Mineralisation | Veining size | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Early | Reverse Fault? | Banded, ferruginousquartz | Unmineralised | Uniformed vein widthsoutcropping for several kms |
| Reverse Fault– Reactivation | Very coarse grained,interstitial quartzcrystals ('HoundsTooth") | Unmineralised | Small scale lenses over tens ofmeters | |
| of initial faultphase creating | Fine grained buckquartz + malachite | Low grade Cu | Small, lenticular; 0.5-2m wideand up to 20m long at surface | |
| low pressuredilatational jogs | Faulted quartz + clay +malachite | High grade Cu | Small, lenticular; 0.5-2m wideand up to 20m long at surface | |
| Late | Massive buck quartz | Unmineralised | Large quartz blows up to 100mlong and 30m wide |
Table 2 - Tollu Vein Paragenesis identified during the March 2014 field mapping programme
The dilatational jog positions occur randomly along the strike extent of the Eastern and Main Reefs but generally at intervals of 100-300m. This observation was used as a parameter to assign tonnes and grade to interpreted mineralised positions under cover.
The mineralisation comprises sub-economic to ore-grade copper mineralisation, occasionally containing elevated concentrations of cobalt and minor concentrates of tungsten and silver. The copper mineralogy is chalcopyrite and bornite at depth and malachite within the regolith.
A geological 3DM was created from data collected during the March 2014 field mapping programme and was extended to the north and south where the mineralisation is believed to continue undercover (Figure 5, 6 & 7). Geophysical evidence suggests that the mineralised structure continues under cover (Figure 6) therefore the conceptual model was extended for 2km to the north and 1km to the south. This results in the Target having an overall strike length of 4.75km and a mineralised volume of 10.7 million cubic metres (Table 1).
Conceptual targets for the Dawyck, Boboli, Hampton, Kilruddery, Forio and Tiergarten Prospects were estimated on average outcrop strike widths and lengths and projected down to 250m. These conceptual targets are included in the Tollu Target (Table 1).

Drilling
Previous close spaced drilling has occurred at the Project, primarily at the Chatsworth and the Eastern Reef Prospects, focusing on the down plunge component of these mineralised veins. A drill hole database has been constructed and 3DM of the mineralised zones has been completed. Due to low quality down hole surveying, accurate spatial positions cannot be determined but the current dataset suggests that the mineralised veins are vertical to steep west dipping with a steep southerly plunge component. The drilling has demonstrated that mineralisation at the Chatsworth and the Eastern Reef Prospects is present down to a vertical depth of 360m. For the purpose of this Target, mineralisation has been extended down to a vertical depth of 400 metres which is the limit of drilling. The remainder of the conceptual targets have been extended from surface down to 340m RL (250m vertical).
Metallurgical Assumptions
No metallurgical assumptions have been made for this Target. It is assumed that mineralisation is easily recovered through density separation, after crushing and grinding; with no known impurities or contaminates. Future test work is required to better understand the metallurgical properties of the potential ores.
Bulk Density Assumptions
No bulk density measurements have been completed at Tollu to date. Bulk density assumptions were used for the major regolith units and are consistent with values used throughout the Eastern Goldfields.
| Completely Oxidised | 1.8 t/m3 |
|---|---|
| Transitional | 2.5 t/m3 |
| Fresh | 2.7 t/m3 |
An over-density value of 2.6t/m3 was used for the Tollu Target which was calculated based on the majority of the target zone being in fresh rock and a small upper portion in transitional material.

Assaying
The current assay dataset was analysed for the purpose of assigning a grade range to the Target. The majority of assay data inside the mineralised wireframes has now been analytically assessed at a commercial laboratory with the remainder of the dataset analysed with a hand held XRF (Table 3).
Assay data was queried inside the Eastern Reef and Chatsworth geological models and basic statistics calculated on 1, 2 & 4m composite data (Table 4). The purpose for this analysis was to determine any effect from extreme outliers and/or localised biases. This analysis demonstrated that the dataset is positively skewed but with no large variances (i.e. low coefficient of variation). The mean grade of 0.83% Cu was assigned to the mineralisation at Eastern Reef and a mean grade of 2.0% Cu was attributed to Chatsworth. These grades were then attributed to other prospects that display similar characteristics i.e. Eastern Reef grade assigned to the dilatational jog positions on the Main Reef.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
Mining and Processing Options
Due to the relative isolation of the Tollu Project, mining and processing options are limited. Several exploration projects including Nebo-Babel (Cassini Resources Ltd) are located within the region although no active mining is undertaken. Economic considerations have been included in the exploration strategy to ensure the correct scale deposit is explored for given the remote nature of the tenement.
It is thought that a concentration process will be required to upgrade potential ores into a high-grade product for transportation.
2014 Assay Programs and Results

Atlas Project E69/2450 – 100% Redstone
The Atlas Project lies to the immediate north of the Tollu Project and is proximal to the Tollu Fault Zone (Figure 14). Most of the Project area appears to be under a thin Tertiary under cover. Importantly, much of the architecture of the Tollu Project is repeated in Atlas. In addition is the inclusion of intermediate volcanic rocks of the Hogarth Formation and the intrusion of a granite (Figure 15). In combination with the proximity of the Tollu Fault Zone, and expanse of Tertiary cover, this Project is prospective for a blind Mt Isa style-copper sediment-hosted deposit.

Figure 14 – Atlas Project –Location Map
The Atlas project is also prospective for the IOCG mineralisation. In the northern portion of the Project, a felsic intrusion is positioned at the margin to the Tollu Fault Zone. Immediately north of this is a magnetised unit with a strike of 1200 metres and width of 500m (Figure 16). The rock type is interpreted to be a porphyritic rhyolite. As a magnetised feature it could represent a portion of stratigraphy not demagnetised by the Tollu Fault Zone, or the footprint of a hydrothermal cell that caused magnetisation consistent with an IOCG analogy. Adjacent to this location, within the damaged and demagnetised domain of the Tollu Fault Zone is a rock specimen P709660. This specimen was studied by petrographic analysis by Teale and Associates (2006) and was observed to be a porphyritic rhyolite that has been sulphidised. It contained pyrite, chalcopyrite, covellite, magnetite and haematite as accessory minerals. Abundant K-feldspar and biotite was present but it is unclear from the description if these were primary or a product of metasomatism. The observation of pyrite, chalcopyrite, covellite, magnetite and haematite favour an IOCG deposit model.

Babylon Project E69/2450 – 100% Redstone
The Babylon Project is located east of the Tollu fault zone (Figure 17). At this location there is a distinct change in stratigraphy across the fault, both strike-slip and dip-slip. The dip slip movement is inferred by the significant thickness change of the porphyritic rhyolite unit (P_-TLs-frp). This increase in thickness may also be due to post-faulting gentle folding (possible with north-east striking fold axis). Ultimately, there is a lot unresolved about the stratigraphy. This Project is prospective for both ironoxide copper ± gold (IOCG) and Mt Isa style-copper sediment-hosted deposits.

Figure 17– Babylon Project –Location Map.
Another feature which is suggestive of an IOCG system is a set of complementary geophysical anomalies (Figure 18). A north-south striking magnetic high is observed at 440,500m E; 7,112,000m N. Encompassing this is K-Th-U radiometric anomalies. The K-channel anomaly is distinct. It is possible this reflects changing stratigraphy from rhyolite-magnetised basalt/mafic sill/rhyolite and the orientation is due to deformation. However, if this occurs then the deformation is distinctly different to the surrounding region and is probably caused by a late antiformal fold. An alternative theory for this geophysical feature is that it represents a hydrothermal alteration footprint. Interestingly, this footprint is visible from google earth. Recent mapping could not detect any overland flow (rain water run-off) at this location suggesting the K-Channel is detecting subcrop or weathering product of Proterozoic sequence. Copper has been observed in subcropping quartz at 440,102 mE, 7,111,594 mN.

Also a magnetic zone (blue ellipse) is identify within the corresponding K-channel and U-channel anomalies shown. A bull-eye magnetic anomaly is also identified (green circle).
Herculaneum Project E69/2450 – 100% Redstone
The Herculaneum Project is located west of the Tollu Project (Figure 19). The key attributes that define its prospectivity is the inferred structure (Fault Zone F) (Figure 6), and what is believed to be the same rhyolite stratigraphy that hosts the Tollu copper mineralisation. The geology has been interpreted from GSWA mapping (Figure 20). This deposit is prospective for Mt Isa style-copper sediment-hosted system.

Pompeii Project E69/2450 – 100% Redstone
The Pompeii Project is located on the north-western corner of E69/2450 (Figure 24). The key attributes that define its prospectivity is the inferred transform structure (Fault Zone C) (Figure 6), an interpreted antiform and spatial proximity to a felsic intrusive. The geology has been interpreted from GSWA mapping (Figure 25). It includes two key units, a pebbly conglomerate (P_-TLh-frsi) that enables substantial fluid flow, and a volcanic siltstone (P_-TLh-frn) which may act as a redox trap. A distinct black feature is observed overlying the southern limb of this anticline, and to a lesser extent in the northern limb. This deposit is prospective for Mt Isa style-copper sediment-hosted.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
Dividends
No dividends were paid during the year and the directors recommend that no dividends be paid or declared for the financial year ended 30 June 2014.
Significant Changes in State of Affairs
There have been no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Entity to the date of this report.
Significant Events after Balance Date
Compulsory Reduction – E69/2450
E69/2450 is in its sixth anniversary of tenure and is therefore subject to compulsory reduction of 40% of the initial granted area of 69 blocks. Consequently, on 18 September 2014 the Entity surrendered 28 blocks and the tenement E 69/2450 now comprises 41 blocks.
There has not been any matter or circumstances that have arisen after balance date that have significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Entity, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Entity in future financial periods.
Likely Developments
Likely developments in the operations of the Entity and the expected results of those operations have not been included in this report as the Directors believe, on reasonable grounds, that the inclusion of such information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Entity.
Environmental Issues
The Entity's operations are subject to significant environmental regulation under the law of the Commonwealth and State. The Directors of the Company monitor compliance with environmental regulations.
During the financial year the Directors became aware that former senior management had failed to apply to the Department of Mines and Petroleum of Western Australia (the DMP) for required Programs of Works (PoW's) in relation to exploration activities undertaken in prior years on its granted Australian tenements. The Entity has subsequently responded to the DMP and provided them with all relevant information in relation to these exploration activities along with retrospective PoW's. Accordingly, the Entity is now awaiting the potential action of the DMP in relation to these matters.
As a result of these matters the Entity has undertaken a comprehensive review and developed appropriate environmental policies, procedures and management plans to ensure this situation does not recur.
The Directors are not aware of any significant breaches during the period covered by this Report.

Remuneration Report (audited)
This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director and key management personnel, including their personally-related entities, of the Company.
- Remuneration Policy
The Board of directors is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the directors and the executive team. The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of such officers on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment conditions, with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team.
The Board acts as the Remuneration Committee and assesses the nature and amount of compensation of key management personnel.
All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at cost to the Entity and expensed. Options granted to directors are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Directors are also eligible to participate in the Company's Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP). Any such options to be offered to Directors under the terms of the ESOP require shareholders' approval. These Options are issued for nil consideration and do not have performance conditions attached other than continued employment with the Entity.
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 will review their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability and to ensure their remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating people with appropriate skills and experience. Independent external advice is sought where required.
The maximum amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are currently fixed at up to $250,000 and are not linked to the performance of the Company. However, to align directors' interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company. Options have been and will be issued to directors of the Company. The purpose of issuing options to directors as part of a remuneration package is to be able to attract, retain and motivate people of the highest calibre to oversee management of the Company's operations by providing them with an opportunity to participate in the company's future growth and give them an incentive to contribute to that growth. The issue of options as a part of remuneration packages is a well-established practice of public listed companies and, in the case of the Company, has the benefit of conserving cash whilst properly rewarding the directors.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
Corporate Governance is a matter of high importance in the Company and is undertaken with due regard to all of the Company's stakeholders and its role in the community.
The Board supports the Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations released by the ASX Corporate Governance Council (CGC).
The CGC's published guidelines are as follows:
| Principle 1. | Lay solid foundations for management and oversight |
|---|---|
| Principle 2. | Structure the board to add value |
| Principle 3. | Promote ethical and responsible decision making |
| Principle 4. | Safeguard integrity in financial reporting |
| Principle 5. | Make timely and balanced disclosure |
| Principle 6. | Respect the rights of shareholders |
| Principle 7. | Recognise and manage risk |
| Principle 8. | Remunerate fairly and responsibly |
The key corporate governance practices of the Company and the extent to which the Company has followed the Best Practice Recommendations during the financial year are summarised below.
Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight.
1.1 Formalise and disclose the functions reserved to the board and those delegated to management.
The Board represents shareholders' interests in continuing a successful business, which seeks to optimise medium to long-term financial gains for shareholders. The Board believes that this focus will ultimately result in the interests of all stakeholders being appropriately addressed when making business decisions.
The Board is responsible for ensuring that the Company is managed in such a way to best achieve this desired result. Given the current size and operations of the business, the Board currently undertakes an active, not passive, role.
The Board is responsible for evaluating and setting the strategic directions for the Company, establishing goals for management and monitoring the achievement of these goals. The Managing Director (or equivalent) is responsible to the Board for the day-to-day management of the Company.
The Board has primary responsibility for the following:
- oversight of the company, including its control and accountability systems,
- appointing and removing the chief executive officer (or equivalent),
- ratifying the appointment and, where appropriate, the removal of the chief financial officer (or equivalent) and the company secretary,
- input into and final approval of management's development of corporate strategy and performance objectives,
- reviewing and ratifying systems of risk management and internal compliance and control, codes of conduct, and legal compliance,
- monitoring senior management's performance and implementation of strategy, and ensuring appropriate resources are available,
- approving and monitoring the progress of major capital expenditure, capital management, and acquisitions and divestitures, and
- approving and monitoring financial and other reporting.
ACN 090 169 154
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
The Board's role and the Company's corporate governance practices are being continually reviewed and improved as required.
The Directors consider that the Company's procedures comply with ASX Principle 1.1.
1.2 Disclose the process for evaluation the performance of senior executives.
Arrangements put in place by the Board to monitor the performance of the Company's executives include annual performance appraisal meetings with each individual to ensure that the level of reward is aligned with respective responsibilities and individual contributions made to the success of the Company.
A performance evaluation was undertaken in respect of the financial year with the Technical Director in accordance with the Company's policy.
The Board considers that the Company's procedures are consistent with ASX Principle 1.2
Principle 2: Structure the board to add value.
The Company's Constitution provides that the number of Directors shall not be less than three. There is no requirement for any shareholding qualification.
- 2.1 A majority of the board should be independent directors
- 2.2 The chairperson should be an independent director.
The names of the Directors of the Company in office at the date of this Statement are set out in the Directors' Report. Directors are appointed based on their experience and on independence of their decision-making and judgement.
In considering the status of directors as independent directors the Company has regard to the following:
An independent director is a non-executive director (ie: is not a member of management) and:
- is not a substantial shareholder of the Company or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly with, a substantial shareholder of the Company.
- within the last three years has not been employed in an executive capacity by the Entity, or been a director after ceasing to hold any such employment.
- within the last three years has not been a principal of a material professional adviser or a material consultant to the Entity, or an employee materially associated with the service provided.
- is not a material supplier or customer of the Entity, or an officer of or otherwise associated directly or indirectly with a material supplier or customer.
- has no material contractual relationship with the Entity other than as a director of the Company.
- has not served on the board for a period which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the director's ability to act in the best interests of the Company.
- is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the director's ability to act in the best interests of the Company.
Having regard to the above criteria only Mr Wolf is considered to be an independent director. As such, the Company does not comply with ASX Principle 2.1.
It is considered that Mr Homsany, the chairperson, is not an independent director and accordingly the Company also does not comply with ASX Principle 2.2.
ACN 090 169 154
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
However the Board believes that the individuals on the Board can make, and do make, quality and independent judgements in the best interests of the Company on all relevant issues. Directors having a conflict of interest in relation to a particular item of business must absent themselves from the Board meeting before commencement of discussion on the topic.
The composition of the Board is reviewed periodically in view of the underlying scale, scope and complexity of the Company's operations. Changes are made where appropriate.
2.3 The roles of Chair and Chief Executive Officer should not be exercised by the same individual.
Since 29 November 2013, Mr Brett Hodgins was appointed as Technical Director and the only executive director of the Company, following the resignation of Mr Anthony Ailakis as Executive Director at that time.
The Company complies with ASX Principle 2.3
2.4 The board should establish a nomination committee.
The membership of the Board and its activities are subject to periodic review. The criteria for determining the identification and appointment of a suitable candidate for the Board shall include quality of the individual, background of experience and achievement, compatibility with other Board members, credibility within the Company's scope of activities, intellectual ability to contribute to Board's duties and physical ability to undertake the Board's duties and responsibilities.
The Board considers that the Company is not currently of such a size to justify the formation of a nomination committee. The Board as a whole undertakes the process of reviewing the skill base and experience of existing Directors to enable identification or attributes required in new Directors. Where appropriate, independent consultants are engaged to identify possible new candidates for the Board.
The Board acknowledges that this does not comply with recommendation 2.4 of the ASX Corporate Governance Guidelines. If the Company's activities increase in size, scope and nature, the appointment of a nomination committee will be reviewed by the Board and implemented if appropriate.
2.5 Disclose the process for performance evaluation of the board, its committees and individual directors.
The Board has adopted a self-evaluation process to measure its own performance during each financial year. Ongoing review is undertaken in relation to the composition and skills mix of the Directors of the Company.
The Board considers that the Company's procedures are consistent with ASX Principle 2.5.
2.6 Structure of the Board
The skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of director held by each director in office at the date of the annual report is included in the Directors' Report. Directors of Redstone Resources Limited are considered to be independent when they are independent of management and free from any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with – or could reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with – the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgment.
In the context of director independence, 'materiality' is considered from both the company and individual director perspective. The determination of materiality requires consideration of both quantitative and qualitative elements. An item is presumed to be quantitatively immaterial if it is equal to or less than 5% of the appropriate base amount. It is presumed to be material (unless there is qualitative evidence to the contrary) if it is equal to or greater than 10% of the appropriate base amount. Qualitative factors considered include whether a relationship is strategically important, the competitive landscape, the nature of the relationship and the contractual or other arrangements governing it and other factors that point to the actual ability of the director in question to shape the direction of the company's loyalty.
ACN 090 169 154
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
The terms in office and independence of directors, based on the definition and materiality thresholds above, in office at the date of this statement are:

Principle 3: Promote ethical and responsible decision making
- 3.1 Establish a code of conduct to guide the directors, the chief executive officer (or equivalent), the chief financial officer (or equivalent) and any other key executives as to:
- (a) the practices necessary to maintain confidence in the company's integrity
- (b) the practices necessary to take in into account their legal obligations and the reasonable expectations of their stakeholders; and
- (c) the responsibility and accountability of individuals for reporting and investigating reports of unethical practices.
The Board acknowledges the need for continued maintenance of a professional standard of corporate governance practice and ethical conduct by all Directors and employees of the Company.
The Board believes that the success of the Company has been and will continue to be enhanced by a strong ethical culture within the organisation. As the Company grows, the need to ensure that ethical standards remain has led the Board to embrace policies to ensure that all Directors, executives and employees act with the utmost integrity and objectivity in their dealings with all people that they come in contact with during their employment with the Company.
The Company is committed to achieving and maintaining high standards of conduct and to 'institutionalise' good corporate governance and generally build a culture of best practice.
The Board has adopted a Code of Conduct for Directors to promote ethical and responsible decision-making by the Directors and a Code of Conduct, which provides guidelines aimed at maintaining high ethical standards, corporate behaviour and accountability within the Company.
All Directors, executives and employees are charged with the responsibility to act with the utmost integrity.
Both the Code of Conduct for Directors and Code of Conduct are consistent with the ASX Principle 3.
3.2 Establish a policy concerning diversity and disclose the policy or summary of that policy. The policy should include requirements for the board to establish measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity and for the board to assess annually both the objectives and progress in achieving them.
The Company has established a Diversity Policy which complies with ASX Principle 3.2 as disclosed on the Company's website.
3.3 Companies should disclose in each annual report the measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity set by the board in accordance with the diversity policy and progress towards achieving them.
ACN 090 169 154
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
3.4 Companies should disclose in each annual report the proportion of women employees in the whole organisation, women in senior executive positions and women on the board,
The board is committed to having an appropriate blend of diversity on the board and on the senior executive management team.
The Company has a measurable objective to achieve at least 25% female representation on the Board, in senior executive positions and the entire Group by 30 June 2016. The Company already meets the desired objective of at least 25% female representation in senior executive management. There is currently no female representation on the Board.
The Company complies with ASX Principles 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4
Principle 4: Safeguard integrity in financial reporting
4.1 The board should establish an audit committee.
The Board considers that it is not currently of a size to justify the formation of an audit committee. The Board as a whole undertakes the selection and proper application of accounting policies, the identification and management of risk and the review and operation of the internal control systems.
- 4.2 Structure an audit committee so that it consists of:
- (a) only non-executive directors;
- (b) a majority of independent directors;
- (c) an independent chairperson, who is not chairperson of the board; and
- (d) at least three members.
- 4.3 The audit committee should have a formal charter.
The Board acknowledges that the Company does not comply with recommendations 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 of the ASX Corporate Governance Guidelines. If the Company's activities increase in size, scope and nature, the appointment of an audit committee and recommendations 4.2 and 4.3 will be reviewed by the Board and implemented if appropriate.
Principle 5: Make timely and balanced disclosure
5.1 Establish written policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with ASX Listing Rule disclosure requirements and to ensure accountability at a senior management level for that compliance.
The Company has established a continuous disclosure policy in relation to the release of ASX announcements (and media releases) to ensure compliance with the ASX Listing Rule disclosure requirements and to ensure accountability for that compliance. In particular, the policy includes vetting and authorisation processes designed to ensure company announcements are timely, factual, complete and expressed in a clear and objective manner.
The continuous disclosure policy requires all executives and Directors to inform the Managing Director (or equivalent) or in his absence the Company Secretary of any potentially material information as soon as practicable after they become aware of that information.
The Managing Director (or equivalent) is responsible for interpreting and monitoring the Company's disclosure policy and where necessary informing the Board. The Company Secretary is responsible for all communications with ASX.
The Company's Continuous Disclosure Policy is consistent with ASX Principle 5.
ACN 090 169 154 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
Principle 6: Respect the rights of shareholders
6.1 Design and disclose a communications strategy to promote effective communication with shareholders and encourage effective participation at general meetings.
The Company places considerable importance on effective communications with shareholders.
The Company's communication strategy requires communication with shareholders and other stakeholders in an open, regular and timely manner so that the market has sufficient information to make informed investment decisions on the operations and results of the Company. The strategy provides for the use of systems that ensure a regular and timely release of information about the Company to shareholders.
Mechanisms employed include:
- (i) announcements lodged with ASX;
- (ii) ASX Quarterly Activities and Cash Flow Reports;
- (iii) Half Yearly Report;
- (iv) presentations at the Annual General Meeting/General Meetings; and
- (v) Annual Report.
The Board encourages full participation of shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to ensure a high level of accountability and understanding of the Company's strategy and goals.
The Company also posts all reports, ASX and media releases and copies of significant business presentations on the Company's website.
The Company's practice is to invite the auditor to attend the annual general meeting and be available to answer shareholder questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the auditor's report.
The Company's policies are consistent with ASX Principle 6.
Principle 7: Recognise and manage risk
7.1 The board or appropriate board committee should establish policies on risk oversight and management.
The Board is responsible for overseeing the Company's risk management and control framework. The Board adopts an active approach to risk management which recognises that the Company is engaged in activities, which necessarily demand that the Company take certain usual business, entrepreneurial and operational risks. Accordingly, and in the interests of the enhanced performance of the Company, the Board embraces a responsible approach to risk management, as a risk-aware Company, and not a risk-averse one.
Responsibility for control and risk management is delegated to the appropriate level of management within the Company with the Managing Director (or equivalent) having ultimate responsibility to the Board for the risk management and control framework.
ACN 090 169 154
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
Arrangements put in place by the Board to monitor risk management include:
- (i) reporting to the Board in respect of operations and the financial position of the Company;
- (ii) Budgetary expenditure controls;
- (iii) Review of insurance requirements annually and as needed; and
- (iv) Regular reporting on adherence to health and safety guidelines and policies.
Specifically, in managing risk, the Board and Management are to adhere to the following principles:
- (i) When considering new strategies or projects, management is to analyse the major risks of those opportunities being secured or being lost, and will consider appropriate strategies for minimising those risks where they are identified.
- (ii) The Company will, where thought prudent by the Managing Director (or equivalent) or the Board, take appropriate external advice to determine the best way to manage a particular risk.
- (iii) Financial risk will be managed by the whole of the Board working closely with the Managing Director (or equivalent) and the Chief Financial Officer (or equivalent), to ensure that the financial statements and other financial reporting are rigorously tested prior to submission for audit.
- (iv) To complement risk management by the Company, appropriate insurances are to be in place, and advice taken from the Company's brokers or insurers where necessary, to cover the usual risks for businesses such as that of the Company, and where practicable, to cover any particular extraordinary risks which arise in the circumstances of the Company.
- 7.2 The Board should require management to design and implement the risk management and internal control system to manage the company's material business risks and report to it on whether those risks are being managed effectively. The board should disclose that management has reported to it as to the effectiveness of the company's management of its material business risks.
The Board has processes in place to monitor and manage risks whereby:
- risks are reported on at regular board meetings;
- the Company's financial position and operations are regularly reviewed; and
- each major transaction executed by the Company is accompanied by assessment of its risks.
Management reports to the board regularly as to the effectiveness of the Company's management of its material business risks.
7.3 The chief executive officer (or equivalent) and the chief financial officer (or equivalent) should state to the board in writing that:
(a) the declaration provided in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and control which implements the policies adopted by the board; and
(b) the company's risk management and internal compliance and control system is operating efficiently and effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting tasks.
ACN 090 169 154
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
The Company's Managing Director (or equivalent) and Chief Financial Officer (or equivalent) will report in writing to the Board that:
- (i) the financial statements of the Company for each half and full year present a true and fair view, in all material aspects, of the Company's financial condition and operational results and are in accordance with accounting standards;
- (ii) the above statement is founded on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and control which implements the policies adopted by the Board; and
- (iii) the Company's risk management and internal compliance and control framework is operating efficiently and effectively in all material respects.
The Board considers that the Company's procedures are consistent with ASX Principle 7.
Principle 8: Remunerate fairly and responsibly
The broad remuneration policy of the Company is to ensure that remuneration levels for executive Directors, secretaries and senior managers are set at competitive levels to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced personnel.
Remuneration packages offered by the Company are therefore geared to attracting talented employees through a combination of fixed remuneration and long term incentives, calibrated and individually tailored to be competitive in the external market to offer good incentive to join and remain with the Company.
8.1 The board should establish a remuneration committee.
The Board considers that the Company is not currently of a size, nor are its affairs of such complexity to justify the formation of a remuneration committee. The Board as a whole is responsible for the remuneration arrangements for Directors and executives of the Company. For further details please refer to the Remuneration Report included in the Directors' Report.
The Board acknowledges that this does not comply with principle 8.1 and therefore also principle 8.2 of the ASX Corporate Governance Guidelines. If the Company's activities increase in size, scope and nature, the appointment of a remuneration committee will be reviewed by the Board and implemented if appropriate.
8.3 Clearly distinguish the structure of non-executive directors' remuneration from that of executives.
The remuneration of Non-executive Directors is determined by the Board as a whole having regard to the level of fees paid to Non-executive Directors by other companies of similar size in the industry.
The aggregate amount payable to the Company's Non-executive Directors must not exceed the maximum annual amount approved by the Company's shareholders, which is currently $250,000.
The remuneration of each director is set out in the Directors' Report included in the Annual Report.
The Directors consider that the Company complies with Principle 8.3 of the Principles of Good Corporate Governance.
The Company's website is to be updated so as to provide further information about the company's corporate governance policies. A copy of the Company's corporate governance policies is available on request.

Redstone Resources Limited (Redstone or the Company) is a company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Australia whose shares commenced public trading on the Australian Stock Exchange on 3 August 2006. The nature of operations and principal activities of the Entity are described in the Directors' Report.
The Group is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing financial statements.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Entity in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
a) Basis of preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, applicable Australian Accounting Standards, Accounting Interpretations and other mandatory professional reporting requirements. The financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis and is presented in Australian dollars.
b) Statement of compliance
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS).
Australian Accounting Standards that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective have not been adopted for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2014.
c) Adoption of new and revised standards
The Entity has also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued and are effective for the year ended 30 June 2014. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on its business and, therefore, no change necessary to the Entity's accounting policies.
d) New accounting standards not yet implemented
The AASB has issued new, revised and amended standards and interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods. A discussion of those future requirements and their impact on the Entity follows:

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
e) Parent entity information
The financial information for the Parent Entity, Redstone Resources Limited, disclosed in note 25 has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements.
f) Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:
Capitalisation of exploration and evaluation expenditure
Under AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources the Entity has the option to either expense exploration and evaluation expenditure as incurred or to capitalise such expenditure provided that certain conditions are satisfied. The Entity applies the latter policy as outlined in note 2(n).
Impairment of plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment if there is any indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Where a review for impairment is conducted, the recoverable amount is assessed by reference to the higher of 'value in use' (being net present value of expected future cash flows of the relevant cash generating unit) and 'fair value less costs to sell'.
Share based payment transactions
The 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 an independent valuer using either Black-Scholes or binomial methodology.
g) Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the Entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue can be recognised.
(i) Sale of goods
Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. Risks and rewards of ownership are considered passed to the buyer at the time of delivery of the goods to the customer.
(ii) Rendering of services
Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract.
ACN 090 169 154

g) Revenue Recognition (continued)
(iii) Interest income

(iv) Dividends
Revenue is recognised when the Entity's right to receive the payment is established.
h) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
i) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments 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 in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
For the purposes of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
j) Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.
Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the Entity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by the Entity in making this determination include known significant financial difficulties of the debtor, review of financial information and significant delinquency in making contractual payments to the Entity. The impairment allowance is set equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Where receivables are short-term, discounting is not applied in determining the allowance.
The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other income in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
k) Financial Assets
Financial assets in the scope of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale investments, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transactions costs. The Entity determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year-end.
All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date i.e. the date that the 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 marketplace.
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets classified as held for trading are included in the category 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss'. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on investments held for trading are recognised in profit or loss.
(ii) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.
l) Income tax
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. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting 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 or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the 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 interests 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.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets 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 an 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
- Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance 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.
ACN 090 169 154
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
l) Income tax (continued)
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 balance date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.
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.
m) Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.
Receivables and payables in the consolidated statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable or payable is included as a current asset or current liability in the consolidated statement of financial position. Cash flows are included in the consolidated statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable or payable are classified as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
n) Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each separate area of interest.
Exploration and evaluation costs are carried forward where right of tenure of the area of interest is current and they are expected to be recouped through sale or successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or, where exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
o) Plant and equipment
Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Plant and equipment is measured on a cost basis.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a diminishing balance basis over their useful lives to the Entity commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
ACN 090 169 154
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
o) Plant and equipment (continued)
| Class of fixed asset | Depreciation rate |
|---|---|
| Office furniture & equipment | 11.25% |
| Satellite phone & digital equipment | 22.50% |
| Office paintings | 1.50% |
| Computer equipment | 37.50% |
| Generators | 7.50% |
| Motor vehicles | 22.50% |
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 or disposal.
Any gain of loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the profit and loss in the year the asset is derecognised.
p) Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities
(i) Financial assets
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when:
- the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;
- the Entity retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement; or
- the Entity has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either:
- (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
- (b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Entity has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Entity's continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration received that the Entity could be required to repay.
When continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on the transferred asset, the extent of the Entity's continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that the Entity may repurchase, except that in the case of a written put option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on an asset measured at fair value, the extent of the Entity's continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price.
(ii) Financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.
ACN 090 169 154
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
q) Impairment
The Entity assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Entity makes an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease).
An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset's revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
r) Goodwill
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at its cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the acquirer's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. Goodwill is subsequently measured at its cost less any impairment losses.
s) Trade and other payables
Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Entity.
ACN 090 169 154
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
t) Employee benefits
i. Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other creditors in respect of employees' services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and measured at the rates paid or payable. Annual leave entitlements are accounted for as a provision.
ii. Long service leave
The liability for long service leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and is in accordance with i. above. The liability for long service leave expected to be settled more than 12 months from the reporting date is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and is measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
iii. Superannuation
Contributions are made by the Entity to employee superannuation funds and are charged as expenses when incurred.
u) Interest-Bearing Loans and Borrowings
All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised.
v) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the 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 Entity expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as separate assets but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability.
When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a borrowing cost.
ACN 090 169 154
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
w) Share-based payment transactions
The Entity provides incentives to employees (including directors) of the Entity in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares ('equity-settled transactions').
The Company has in place an Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) which provides benefits to directors, senior executives and key employees. Key terms of the ESOP are as follows:
- The ESOP is available to eligible persons who will be determined by the Board but must be persons who are Directors or employees of the Entity;
- Options are issued for nil consideration;
- The exercise price is determined by the Board with regard to the market value of the Company's shares at the time it resolves to offer the options;
- Options will be issued subject to certain conditions that must be satisfied for them to be exercised to be determined by the Board when it resolves to offer the Options and in accordance with the purpose of the ESOP;
- The expiry date of the Options will be determined by the Board prior to the offer of the relevant options, subject to any restrictions in the Corporations Act, but in any event no longer than 5 years from the date of issue;
- Options will lapse if the eligible person ceases to be an eligible person for any reason other than retirement, permanent disability, redundancy or death;
- Options are not transferable;
- Any shares issued will rank equally with the Company's then existing issued shares;
- The issue of Options to Directors will require shareholder approval in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act.
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using Black-Scholes and binomial methods.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Redstone Resources Limited ('market conditions').
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award ('vesting date').
Where the Entity acquires some form of interest in an exploration tenement and the consideration comprises share based payment transactions, the fair value of the equity instruments granted is measured at the grant date. The cost of the equity securities is recognised within capitalised exploration expenditure together with a corresponding increase in equity.
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 awards that, in the opinion of the directors of the company, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. 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.
ACN 090 169 154
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
w) Share-based payment transactions (continued)
Where 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 increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification.
Where 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.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share.
x) Share capital
Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Entity. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction in share proceeds received.
y) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net profit after income tax attributable to members of the Entity, excluding any costs of service equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figure used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to potential ordinary shares.
z) Joint venture arrangements
Jointly controlled operations
Where the Entity is a venturer (and so has joint control) in a jointly controlled operation the Entity recognises the assets that it controls and the liabilities it incurs, along with the expenses that it incurs and the Entity's share of the income that it earns from the sale of goods and services by the joint venture.
aa) Comparative figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
ACN 090 169 154
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
ab) Foreign currency
Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur, which form part of the net investment in a foreign operation, and which are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve and recognised in profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.
The individual financial statements of each group entity are presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (its functional currency). For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, the results and financial position of each entity are expressed in Australian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Entity, and the presentation currency for the consolidated financial statements.
ac) Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent, Redstone Resources Ltd and all of the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
ad) Principles of going concern
The Entity recorded a loss of $1,444,367 for the year ended 30 June 2014 and as at 30 June 2014 had net current assets of $158,984 and exploration commitments of $292,348 (note 21). Although this indicates a material uncertainty, the financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, as the Directors are of the opinion that the Entity will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due. The Directors contemplate continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business
The Entity will be undertaking a capital raising in the near future to fund operations and exploration for the short to medium term. All capital raising options are being explored and assessed along with a director controlled review and reduction in operating expenditure. For further information please refer to the Directors' Report.

4. Income tax (continued)
The prima facie income tax benefit on pre-tax accounting loss from operations reconciles to the income tax expense in the financial statements as follows:
| Consolidated | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2014$ | 2013$ | |
| Loss before income tax | (1,444,367) | (5,582,684) |

Redstone Resources Limited and its controlled entities have not elected to form a tax consolidation group.
It is considered that it is not probable that the Entity will utilise all its carry forward tax losses in the foreseeable future, hence it is not expected to pay tax in the foreseeable future. The deferred tax balances noted above have therefore not been accounted for in the consolidated statement of financial position.
At 30 June 2014, the Entity has tax losses in Australia of $19,850,767 (2013: $18,008,921) that are available indefinitely for offset against future taxable income. The Entity has not recognised deferred income tax assets in relation to these losses as realisation of the benefit is not regarded as probable.

4. Income tax (continued)
These deferred tax assets will only be obtained if:
- a) future assessable income is derived of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised;

Compulsory Reduction – E69/2450
E69/2450 is in its sixth anniversary of tenure and is therefore subject to compulsory reduction of 40% of the initial granted area of 69 blocks. Consequently, on 18 September 2014 the Entity surrendered 28 blocks and the tenement E 69/2450 now comprises 41 blocks.
There has not been any other matter or circumstance that has arisen after balance date that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Entity, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Entity in future financial periods.
19. Segment Reporting

The Entity has identified its operating segment based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by management and the Board of Directors in determining the allocation of resources.
However, as the Entity is predominantly operating in Australia then pursuant to the quantitative threshold criteria in AASB8 Segment Reporting, the two segments have been aggregated.
The accounting policies used by the Entity in reporting segments are the same as those in the prior period.

21. Expenditure commitments
Exploration expenditure commitments
Australian tenements
In order to maintain current rights of tenure over its Australian mineral tenement leases, the Entity will be required to outlay amounts in respect of rent and to meet minimum expenditure requirements of the Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP). Further, those tenements for which access agreements have been signed require annual access payments to be paid to the traditional owners.
The annual expenditure commitments, including access payments, on granted tenements as at 30 June 2014 amount to $292,348 (2013: $520,500). This amount reduces to $131,000 from 28 April 2015.
During the financial year Applications for Forfeiture (Plaints) on the Blackstone Range Project tenements were lodged in the Wardens Court by Blackstone Exploration Pty Ltd, in relation to both the 2013 and 2014 expenditure years. As a consequence expenditure commitments are reduced prorata for the period the Plaints are in place.
Brazilian tenements
In order to maintain current rights of tenure over Brazilian mineral tenement leases, the Company's controlled entity, Redstone Mineracao Do Brasil Ltda, will be required to outlay amounts in respect of annual rent and to meet minimum expenditure requirements of the National Department of Mineral Production (DNMP).
The minimum expenditure commitments comprising annual rent on granted Brazilian tenements as at 30 June 2014 amount to nil (2013: $203,565). Subsequent to 30 June 2014 all granted Brazilian tenements held by the Entity have expired or are still pending an extension application.
The future exploration commitment (including access costs) of the Entity relating to tenements which have been granted, including tenements currently subject to Plaints, is as follows:

These obligations may vary from time to time, are subject to approval and are expected to be fulfilled in the normal course of operations by the relevant entity. Further, these obligations are extinguished upon any surrender of the tenement.
Joint venture commitments
Blackstone Range/Michael Hills Joint Venture
The Blackstone Range/Michael Hills Farm-In Deed dated 2 June 2005 is between Giles Exploration Pty Ltd (Giles), Resources Mining Corporation Ltd (RMC), Westmin Exploration Pty Ltd (Westmin) and Rivergold Exploration Pty Ltd (Rivergold).
As of September 2008 Westmin, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired a 75% interest in the Blackstone Range/Michael Hills Exploration Licences (EL) by sole funding $2,000,000 of exploration costs. During the 2010 financial year RMC converted its 25% interest to a 10% free carried interest in which case Westmin will assume RMC's funding obligations to completion of a feasibility study, upon which Westmin will have earned a 90% interest in the EL.
On 26 February 2010 the Joint Venture parties surrendered Exploration Licences EL's 69/2106 and 2107. The Farmin Deed continues in respect of the remaining tenements, EL's 69/2108 and 2109.

22. Financial Risk Management
(a) Overview
The Entity has exposure to the following risks from use of their financial instruments
- credit risk
- liquidity risk
- market risk
This note presents information about the Entity's exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital.
The Board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Entity if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Entity's receivables from customers and investments.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Entity will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Entity's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Entity's reputation.
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Entity's short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
It is the Entity's objective to ensure that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses for a period of 60 days, including the servicing of financial obligations.
The contractual maturities of the financial liabilities referred to in note 10 to the financial report for the Entity at reporting date are less than 3 months.
(d) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Entity's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments.
(i) Price Risk
The Entity has no exposure to price risk.
(ii) Currency risk
The Entity is exposed to currency risk on purchases and investments that are denominated in a currency other than their functional currency, namely the Australian dollar (AUD). The currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are the United States dollar (USD) and Brazilian Reais (BRL).
To date, currency risk has not been material to the Entity.
(iii) Interest rate risk
The cash balance of $899,633 as at 30 June 2014 is sensitive to interest rate risk whereby a 1% per annum movement in interest rates would impact the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and net equity by $8,996. This risk is not considered to be material.
At reporting date the Entity does not have any short term borrowings.

22. Financial Risk Management (continued)
(e) Capital risk management
Management's policy is to control the capital of the Company in order to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to ensure that the Entity can fund its operations and continue as a going concern.
The Entity's capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, comprising trade and other payables totalling $284,318 (2013: $551,294) supported by financial assets of $939,023 (2013: $811,435).
The Entity is currently in the process of a capital raising by way of placement of fully paid ordinary shares to sophisticated and/or professional investors.
Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Entity's principal financial instrument is cash. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to provide working capital for operations.
The Entity has various other financial assets and liabilities such as receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. The main risks currently arising from the Entity's financial instruments are interest rate risk and credit risk.
It is expected that the Entity will be undertaking certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies, hence exposures to exchange rate fluctuations will arise.
Significant accounting policies
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis for measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 2 to the financial statements.
Credit risk
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for doubtful debts of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
The Entity does not have any material credit risk exposure to debtors under financial instruments it has entered into, with the majority of trade receivables due from the Company's previous investment partners and the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). For the year ended 30 June 2014 the Entity provided for doubtful debts of $27,470 in relation to these trade debtors.
As at 30 June 2014, financial assets which are neither past due or impaired mainly comprise cash held with reputable financial institutions and is therefore not considered to present material credit risk.
Net fair values
The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their net fair values at balance date.
Interest rate risk
The following table sets out the carrying amount and maturity of the financial instruments exposed to interest rate risk:

24. Contingent Assets and Liabilities
Lack of DMP Approvals Relating to Prior Years
In June 2014, the Directors became aware that former senior management failed to apply to the Department of Mines and Petroleum of Western Australia (the DMP) for required Programs of Works (PoW's) in relation to exploration activities undertaken in prior years on its granted Australian tenements. The Entity has subsequently responded to the DMP and provided them with all relevant information in relation to these exploration activities along with retrospective PoW's. Accordingly, the Entity is now awaiting the potential action of the DMP in relation to these matters.
The amount of potential fines to be imposed by the DMP is not yet known and therefore cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.
The Entity had no contingent assets or liabilities as at 30 June 2013.
