REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
MARYMIA PROJECT
Australian Mines Limited ("Australian Mines") Earning Up to 80%
In November 2014, Australian Mines elected to continue with the Stage 1 earn-in pursuant to the farm-in and joint venture agreement and paid $250,000 to Riedel in order to proceed to the next stage.
Nickel exploration
Moving Loop Electromagnetic Surveys (MLEM) delineated three potential Kambalda-style nickel sulphide conductors in ultramafic host rock (Simmons, Burton and Wyman prospects).
Two diamond drill holes (1,230 metres) at the Simmons target (see Figure 1 for location) each intersected distinct sulphide zones (>10% sulphides) in ultramafic rocks similar in nature to those which host the rich Kambalda-type nickel deposits.
Furthermore, analysis of geological and drilling data from previous exploration at the Simmons Prospect by Australian Mines suggests that diamond core holes SMDD001 and SMDD002 are located within the "Flanking Zone" of the ultramafic sequence (see Figure 2).
Although drilling intersected multiple sulphide zones, neither of the drill holes adequately explain the strong nickel and copper soil anomalies previously reported across the prospect area or the strong conductive EM anomaly.


Figure 1: Marymia Project – Simmons Prospect location on aeromagnetic background.
Confident that its exploration is vectoring towards desired "Ore Zone" or "Main Zone" komatiite geology, Australian Mines is finalising detailed geological studies over the greater Simmons prospect area prior to planning further drilling at this coincident geophysical and geochemical anomaly in the coming months.

A strong bedrock conductor was also detected below nickel oxide mineralisation at the Burton Prospect. Historic RAB hole NKB0724 intersected 4m @ 1.07% nickel above this conductive body (see Figure 3). A 1,500 x 600m nickel-copper-platinum-palladium soil anomaly is also coincident with target (see Figure 4 for location).
Modelling of the Burton Prospect anomaly indicates that the top of the conductive body occurs at a depth of 140 metres from the surface. Drill testing of this high priority nickel sulphide target is anticipated to commence in March 2015.

Figure 3: Burton Prospect - Position of the modelled EM conductor below historic drill hole NKB0724.
The ground-based MLEM survey also identified another discrete bedrock conductor below a surface geochemical anomaly extending for 1,200 x 800 metres with a strong coherent nickel and copper response (see MM001 soil anomaly location in Figure 1). This target, now named the Wyman Prospect, represents the northern extension of the Simmons ultramafic sequence (see Figure 4 for prospect location).


Figure 4: Marymia Project - Location of newly detected conductive bodies (Burton and Wyman Prospects) superimposed over high resolution aeromagnetic data.
Copper exploration
The presence of a cluster of EM conductors along the Jenkin Fault have been identified (see Figure 5). These are coincident with a supergene copper-lead-zinc oxide anomaly within historic wide-spaced reconnaissance RAB drilling.
Assay results from this historic drilling included 1 metre @ 1% lead + 0.1% zinc + 220ppm copper from 18 metres depth (drill hole PYRB363) in addition to broader base metal anomalism in oxidised rocks including 12 metres @ 950ppm lead (drill hole PYRB359), 8 metres @ 1,450ppm lead (drill hole PYRB373) and 12 metres @ 1,011ppm zinc (drill hole PYRB376).
The source of these four historic EM anomalies along the Jenkin Fault remains untested by drilling.

Co-Funded Drilling Grant
Australian Mines received notification from the Western Australian Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP) that the Company was successful with its Co-funded Drilling application for innovative exploration targets.
Through this co-funding agreement, the DMP will contribute a total of $150,000 to Australian Mines' exploration programme with the funds to be allocated to upcoming drilling at the underexplored Baumgarten gold Prospect (see Figure 5).
Previous drilling of near-surface oxide material at Baumgarten returned a number of promising intersections, including 3 metres @ 9.53 g/t gold from 51 metres (drill hole BRC23) and 2 metres @ 7.15 g/t gold from 31 metres (drill hole RB620)1 . The primary source of this supergene mineralisation has yet to be effectively tested by deeper drilling.
With the Baumgarten prospect potentially hosting high-grade primary gold mineralisation below the supergene gold layer, Australian Mines is therefore proposing to undertake diamond core drilling to test this interpreted mineralised zone as part of the Company's upcoming Marymia drilling campaign.

CHARTERIS CREEK PROJECT JOINT VENTURE
FMG Resources Pty Ltd ("FMGR") Earning Up to 80% (EL 45/2763)
Mineralised rock chips samples including 8.41% Cu/1.22g/t Au and 7.9% Cu/0.41g/t Au associated with porphyry-style copper-molybdenum mineralisation and related base-metal-bearing quartz veins were received from the Lightning Ridge prospect.
FMGR continued field work around the Lightning Ridge prospect. This included further detailed geological mapping and rock chip sampling as well as stream sediment and soil sampling. The rock chip sampling, including assays from samples taken in the June quarter, produced some highly anomalous results with the best summarised in Table 1 below.
| Sample ID | Cu (%) | Au (ppb) | Mo (ppm) | Pb (ppm) | Ni (ppm) | W (ppm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Table 1: Summary of most significant rock chip assays
In total 2 rock chip, 122 stream sediment and 271 soil samples were collected during the second half of 2014. Copper results from the stream sediment sampling are presented in Figure 6 (includes assays from sampling taken in the previous quarter) and copper results from the soil sampling are presented in Figure 7. Regional geological mapping was also completed over areas identified as anomalous by the stream sediment sampling.
The Archaean porphyry system at Lightning Ridge is currently poorly understood due to its age and differing geochemical characteristics when compared to much younger known analogues. Detailed information relating to alteration, structures, goethite/jarosite ratios, structural orientation and abundance of quartz veins is required to build a more comprehensive picture of the geological setting. In combination, these observations will enable FMGR to vector towards the potential mineralised centre of the porphyry system.

CHERITONS FIND PROJECT

Riedel continues to investigate options to commercialise the Cheritons Find Gold Project, including project development by way of toll treatment and/or other treatment opportunities.
Consequently, MWH Australia (MWH) were commissioned to conduct a Level 1 Vegetation, Flora and Targeted Flora Survey and opportunistic recording of Malleefowl mounds within exploration tenement E77/1793. The overall scope of the Level 1 Vegetation and Flora Survey was to gain a broad, understanding of the vegetation associations that occur within the Survey Area.
This study is one of several that are required prior to completing a project development feasibility study and applying for conversion from an Exploration Licence to a Mining Lease.
MILLROSE PROJECT
An application was made for a Retention Licence over the Millrose gold deposit and surrounding areas. The objective of this application is to protect the gold resources already defined until such time as studies determine that an economically robust gold mining operation can be established at Millrose. Unlike Exploration Licences, a retention licence does not require minimum expenditure commitments to be satisfied and upon grant of the Retention Licence, the underlying Exploration Licence can be relinquished.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGE OF AFFAIRS
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the consolidated entity during the financial half year.
EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO REPORTING DATE
There are no other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the financial period that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Company, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Company, in future years.
AUDITOR'S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
The auditor's independence declaration under s 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 10 for the half year ended 31 December 2014.
Signed in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.

NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY
Riedel Resources Limited (the "Company") is a Company domiciled in Australia.
The address of the Company's registered office is Suite 1, 45 Ord Street, West Perth WA 6005. The half year consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the six months ended 31 December 2014 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group" or "consolidated entity" and individually as "Group entities") and the Group's interest in associates and jointly controlled entities.
The Group primarily is involved in mining and exploration activity.
The half year consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the half year ended 31December 2014 are available upon request.
The financial statement were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of directors dated on 5 March 2015.
NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION
a) Statement of compliance
The half-year consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. The half-year report does not include notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2014 and any public announcements made by the Company during the half-year period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
b) Basis of preparation
The half-year consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of certain non-current assets and financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.
The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the half-year consolidated financial statements are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the Group's 2014 annual financial report for the financial year ended 30 June 2014, except for the impact of the Standards and Interpretations described below. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards.
c) Significant accounting judgments and key estimates
The preparation of the half year consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these half year consolidated financial statements, significant judgment made by management in applying the Company's accounting policies and key sources of estimation were the same as those that were applied to the financial statements as at and for the year ended 30 June 2014.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONT)
d) Going concern
The half year consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The consolidated entity incurred a net loss after tax of $404,921 for the period ended 31 December 2014 (31 December 2013: $4,664,877).
The ability of the consolidated entity to continue to pay its debts as and when they are due is dependent upon the consolidated entity successfully raising additional share capital and ultimately developing one of its mineral properties.
The Directors believe it is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis because:-
- the Directors have an appropriate plan to raise additional funds as and when it is required. In light of the consolidated entity's current exploration projects, the Directors believe that any additional capital required can be raised in the market; and
- the Directors have an appropriate plan to contain certain operating and exploration expenditure if appropriate funding is unavailable.
The accounts have been prepared on the basis that the consolidated entity can meet its commitments as and when they fall due and can therefore continue normal business activities, and the realisation of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
e) New or revised accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The following Australian Accounting Standards have been issued or amended and are applicable to the annual financial statements of the consolidated Group but are not yet effective. This assumes the following have not been adopted in preparation of the financial statements at the reporting date.

f) New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
Any significant impact on the accounting policies of the consolidated entity from the adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations are disclosed below. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the consolidated entity.
The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the consolidated entity:
AASB 2013-3 Amendments to AASB 136 - Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets The consolidated entity has applied AASB 2013-3 from 1 July 2014. The disclosure requirements of AASB 136 'Impairment of Assets' have been enhanced to require additional information about the fair value measurement when the recoverable amount of impaired assets is based on fair value less costs of disposals. Additionally, if measured using a present value technique, the discount rate is required to be disclosed.
AASB 2014-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards (Parts A to C)
The consolidated entity has applied Parts A to C of AASB 2014-1 from 1 July 2014. These amendments affect the following standards: AASB 2 'Share-based Payment': clarifies the definition of 'vesting condition' by separately defining a 'performance condition' and a 'service condition' and amends the definition of 'market condition'; AASB 3 'Business Combinations': clarifies that contingent consideration in a business combination is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss irrespective of whether the contingent consideration is within the scope of AASB 9; AASB 8 'Operating Segments': amended to require disclosures of judgements made in applying the aggregation criteria and clarifies that a reconciliation of the total reportable segment assets to the entity's assets is required only if segment assets are reported regularly to the chief operating decision maker; AASB 13 'Fair Value Measurement': clarifies that the portfolio exemption applies to the valuation of contracts within the scope of AASB 9 and AASB 139; AASB 116 'Property, Plant and Equipment' and AASB 138 'Intangible Assets': clarifies that on revaluation, restatement of accumulated depreciation will not necessarily be in the same proportion to the change in the gross carrying value of the asset; AASB 124 'Related Party Disclosures': extends the definition of 'related party' to include a management entity that provides KMP services to the entity or its parent and requires disclosure of the fees paid to the management entity; AASB 140 'Investment Property': clarifies that the acquisition of an investment property may constitute a business combination.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONT)
g) Operating segments
From 1 July 2009, operating segments are identified and segment information disclosed on the basis of internal reports that are regularly provided to, or reviewed by, the consolidated entity's chief operating decision maker which, for the consolidated entity, is the Board of Directors. In this regard, such information is provided using different measures to those used in preparing the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and statement of financial position. Reconciliations of such management information to the statutory information contained in the half year consolidated financial report have been included where applicable.
NOTE 3: OPERATING SEGMENTS
The consolidated entity has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance.
Operating segments are identified by Management based on the mineral resource and exploration activities in Australia and Burkina Faso. Discrete financial information about each project is reported to the chief operating decision maker on a regular basis.
The reportable segments are based on aggregated operating segments determined by the similarity of the economic characteristics, the nature of the activities and the regulatory environment in which those segments operate.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF
RIEDEL RESOURCES LIMITED
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Riedel Resources Limited (the Company) and controlled entities (consolidated entity) which comprises the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014, the condensed statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information and the directors' declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the Company and the entities it controlled at 31 December 2014, or during the half year.
Directors' Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal controls as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the halfyear financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2014 and its performance for the half year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporation Regulations 2001. As the auditor of Riedel Resources Limited and the entities it controlled during the half year, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
25

Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, we have given the directors' of the Company a written Auditor's Independence Declaration.
Conclusion
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Riedel Resources Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
- (a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2014 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
- (a) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Material Uncertainty Regarding Continuation as a Going Concern
Without modifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 2(d) in the financial report, which confirmed that the consolidated entity incurred a net loss after tax of $404,921 during the half year ended 31 December 2014. These conditions, along with other matters as set out in Note 2(d), indicates the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the company and consolidated entity's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the company and consolidated entity may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
The financial report of the consolidated entity and the company does not include any adjustments in relation to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the company and/or the consolidated entity not continue as going concerns
