RTG MINING INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2017

UNAUDITED - PREPARED BY MANAGEMENT

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

The consolidated interim financial statements of RTG are presented as at September 30, 2017 and for the period January 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017.

RTG was incorporated on December 27, 2012, and is domiciled in the British Virgin Islands. The Company’s registered address is Sea Meadow House, Blackburne Highway (PO Box 116) Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands. Its shares are publicly traded on both the Australian Stock Exchange (“ASX”) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”).

Highlights for the three months to September 30, 2017 included:

  • RTG has been nominated as the development partner with the joint venture company of the Special Mining Lease Osikaiyang Landowners Association and Central Exploration Pty Ltd (“Central”) in their proposal with respect to the redevelopment of the 1.5B tonne Copper-Gold Panguna Project located in the Central Region of the island of Bougainville, within the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, Papua New Guinea.

  • Mt. Labo Exploration and Development Corporation (“Mt. Labo”) is continuing with the arbitration proceedings against Galeo Equipment Corporation (“Galeo”) in the Singapore International Arbitration Centre seeking a number of reliefs, including a declaration that the JVA was validly terminated and the compromise agreement was validly rescinded.

  • Improvements in commodity prices from the original feasibility study have led to a 90% increase in the NPV of the Mabilo Project.

  • General Cimatu was confirmed in the Philippines as the new Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (“DENR”), replacing the previous Secretary Ms Gina Lopez. The mining industry has overwhelmingly supported the appointment of Secretary Cimatu, who has been quoted as supporting “responsible mining” in the Philippines.

  • On 25 October 2017, Secretary Cimatu announced, as co-chair of the Mining Industry Co-ordinating Council (“MICC”), that a majority of MICC members voted to recommend a change in the policy of the DENR with regard to the ban on open-pit mining and plan before year end to issue a DENR Administrative Oder restoring open pit mining operations.

  • Mt. Labo has been working with the DENR and Mines and Geosciences Bureau to progress and perfect the permitting process for the Mabilo Project.

  • An order was received in the Philippine Courts on actions commenced there by Galeo against Mt. Labo and others that the proceedings were to be referred to Singapore for arbitration, so all current matters have been consolidated in Singapore.

  • The Company continues to investigate a number of new business development opportunities diversifying its Philippine interests including the abovementioned opportunity in Bougainville, should the landowners be successful in their current efforts.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Fair value

The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximates their respective net fair values, determined in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies. All financial instruments for which fair value is recognised or disclosed are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole, is described as follows:

  • Level 1 Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

  • Level 2 Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

  • Level 3 Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

Recognised fair value measurements

The following table presents the Group’s assets measured at fair value at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

Contingent Liabilities

Mt. Labo has estimated contingent liabilities relating to the legal proceedings for both the civil case in the Philippines and arbitration through the Singapore International Arbitration Centre. In the event that Mt. Labo is found to be liable to Galeo’s claims, Mt. Labo’s costs are estimated as PHP1,500,000 for the civil case against Galeo and USD3,500,000 under arbitration. The Directors consider that it is not probable that these cash outflows will occur and have therefore not recorded a liability.

At September 30, 2017 the Company had no other contingent liabilities (December 31, 2016: nil).
