REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
MARYMIA PROJECT
Australian Mines Limited ("Australian Mines") Earning Up to 80% (E52/2394 and E52/2395)
One RC drill hole was completed by Australian Mines at the Dixon Prospect (formerly known as Bill's Area) included a significant high-grade zone of gold mineralisation averaging 10 metres @ 8.79 g/t gold from 130 metres down hole depth (see Table 1 and Figure 1).

The Dixon prospect is situated in the south-west corner of E52/2394. Shallow rotary air blast (RAB) and air core drilling completed across this target area in the mid-1990s, testing a low-order gold + arsenic anomaly, successfully intersected a zone of supergene gold mineralisation within the weathered profile but there has been limited deeper drilling to date (see Figure 2).
Following the drilling of MMRC016 a detailed Induced Polarisation (IP) geophysical survey was completed by Australian Mines over the Dixon Prospect and the area surrounding the prospect (see Figure 3). The survey detected a significant chargeability anomaly coincident with the high-grade gold mineralisation intersected in MMRC016.
Given the geophysical characteristics and the geological positioning of this 200 metre long IP anomaly, its source is likely to be a sulphide (pyrite) body such as the gold-bearing sulphidic (pyrite + arsenopyrite) quartz veining intersected in the drilling.
Modelling of this newly-acquired IP data has also identified a second anomaly to the northeast of Dixon, which could represent a potential gold mineralised zone (see Figure 4). Both zones are planned to be drill tested in March 2016.
The discovery of a second chargeability anomaly in close proximity to, and along the same lithological contact as, the known mineralisation at Dixon is equally encouraging as it suggests that potential repetitions of the Dixon-style gold mineralisation may exist throughout the six kilometres of prospective dolerite geology mapped within the Marymia project area.

CHARTERIS CREEK PROJECT JOINT VENTURE
FMG Resources Pty Ltd ("FMGR") Earning Up to 80% (EL 45/2763)
A re-visit of the Lightning Ridge Prospect in September 2015, including the area north of known mineralisation, focussed on lithology to distinguish between different sets of intrusive rocks and clarify relationships between intrusive, sedimentary and volcanic rocks. As a result of this work, three different intrusive suites were identified within the greater Lightning Ridge area, adding one more suite to known intrusive rocks associated with the Gobbos Granodiorite intrusion (BAGAS, L., 2005, Geology of the Nullagine 1:100,000 sheet, p. 12).
The additional intrusive suite, the Lightning Ridge (LR) Porphyry, has been recognized for Lightning Ridge and another nearby part of the outcropping Gobbos Granodiorite intrusive complex. An additional 8 rock chip samples were taken and sent for geochemical and, for selected samples, petrological analysis. Results are pending.
In addition to the reassessment of the geology around the Lightning Ridge prospect, the north western part of the tenement will be tested for potential precious and base metal mineralisation. A stream sediment sampling program has been designed within the Marble Bar greenstone belt and is expected to be completed in the first half of 2016.
CHERITONS FIND PROJECT
In November 2015 the Cheriton's Find Gold Project was sold to Hanking Gold Mining Company Pty Ltd for a cash consideration of $700,000, with all funds received.
The divestment represents an excellent outcome for Riedel as it significantly bolsters the Company's treasury without dilution of shareholders equity in the Company. Riedel is now well positioned for future growth and the Company will continue to judiciously manage its cash resources.
MILLROSE PROJECT
No field work was completed during the reporting period following granting of Retention Status over E53/1304 and the relinquishment of E53/1305 earlier in 2015.
The information in this report that relates to Exploration Results and Mineral Resources is based on information compiled by Mr Ed Turner, who is a Member of The Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Mr Turner is a consulting geologist to Riedel Resources Limited. Mr Turner has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activities undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the 'Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves'. Mr Turner consents to the inclusion in this report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
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
On 19 January 2016 Mr Mark Skiffington and Mr Luke Matthews were appointed as Non-Executive Directors of the Company. Mr Ian Tchacos has stepped down as Chairman of the Company and Mr Jeffrey Moore has replaced Mr Tchacos in the role of Executive Chairman.
On 1 February 2016, the Company entered into an Option and Sale Agreement with Bowlane Nominees (WA) Limited ("Purchaser") with respect to the Millrose Project exploration licence E53/1304 ("Tenement"). The Vendor will grant the Purchaser the exclusive option ("Option") to purchase the Tenement for A$900,000 in cash ("Purchase Price"), exclusive of GST, subject to a period of exclusivity ("Exclusivity Period"), commencing on the date of the agreement and ending on 31 May 2016, to enable the Purchaser to carry out due diligence of the project.
In consideration of the Vendor granting the Option to the Purchaser, Bowlane will pay a non-refundable option fee ("Option Fee") to the Vendor of A$50,000 in cash, exclusive of GST, in addition to the Purchase Price, within 14 days of the signing of the Letter Agreement.
On 9 February 2016, Bowlane paid a non-refundable Option Fee to Riedel of A$50,000 in cash, exclusive of GST. The Option Fee entitles Bowlane to a period of exclusivity ("Exclusivity Period"), which ends on 31 May 2016, to enable the Purchaser to carry out due diligence of the project covering such technical, financial, legal, and other matters to the satisfaction of the Purchaser.
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.

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, 6 Richardson Street, West Perth WA 6005. The half year consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the six months ended 31 December 2015 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 31 December 2015 are available upon request.
The financial statement were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of directors dated on 11 March 2016.
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 2015 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 2015 annual financial report for the financial year ended 30 June 2015, 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 2015.

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 profit after tax of $401,629 for the period ended 31 December 2015 (31 December 2014: $404,921 loss).
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.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONT)
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.
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.

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 2015 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.
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 2015 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
- (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
