REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Currently Rumble"s activities are focussed on the Beadell Project, an exciting base metal project in the Paterson Province of WA, the Paulsens South Project, an excellent location in an emerging gold province in WA as well as the Derosa Project, which is a highly prospective and previously unexplored greenstone belt in Burkina Faso, West Africa.
Derosa Project, Burkina Faso, West Africa (RTR earning 75%, CAY 25%)
Rumble recently announced that a major artisanal site has been established on the Bompela Permit, Burkina Faso. The Bompela Permit forms part of Rumble"s Derosa Project (a joint venture with Canyon Resources Ltd ASX: CAY). The joint venture consists of 6 contiguous tenements covering an area of over 1,300km² in a highly prospective region within proximity to a number of very significant West African gold projects.
Rumble commenced exploration on the Derosa Project with initial mapping programs and a comprehensive geophysical and geological interpretation of the licence areas completed. Rumble has also evaluated Burkina Faso"s infrastructure, stability and local mining laws and believes that Burkina Faso represents a highly attractive region for gold exploration.
During this work, significant artisanal workings were discovered at the Bompela Permit covering an area approximately 400m long by 200m wide. Bompela is the furthest North West permit of the Derosa Project and covers a landholding of approximately 250km².
The Bompela artisanal mining site is located in the central portion of the Bompela permit and covers an EWtrending area of approximately 400 m long and 200 m wide. On the basis of pit orientations there are two main trends NNE and NNW. Most of the veins are sub-vertical with some having been mined to a depth of 60 metres.
The initial exploration program has allowed Rumble to map the geology and structures within the regolith landscape that could be observed in the area surrounding the Bompela artisanal workings.
The mapping and rock sampling of the Bompela workings indicated the presence of structurally-controlled in situ vein-type gold mineralisation located within a strongly altered granodioritic pluton.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (CONT.)
350 grab samples of pit dumps that were then sent to the laboratory for analysis. The samples returned significant results including 28 samples >1g/t Au and 34 samples ranging from 0.5 to 1.0 g/t Au with the highest being 16.2g/t. Over half of the samples returned a value of >0.1 g/t gold or 100ppb, which is an excellent result from this sampling program which was focussed on waste rock from the artisanal mining.
Beadell Project
The Beadell Project is located 450km east of Newman in the Paterson Orogen of central north Western Australia. The Paterson Orogen is host to significant mineral deposits including the Telfer Gold Mine, Nifty Copper Mine and the Kintyre Uranium Deposit.
Rumble has acquired a significant interest in the Beadell Project from Cauldron Energy Ltd (ASX:CXU) ("Cauldron"), having obtained a 80% interest in E45/2405 and E45/2406 and an 80% interest in ELA 45/3799 and ELA 45/3823.
Rumble commenced exploration with a down-hole EM program that was aimed at establishing better target definition of the airborne EM target. Rumble was able to acquire 3 component Time Domain EM data from 5 of the 6 RC holes, with several off-hole conductors identified. In order to achieve a more detailed interpretation of the regional geology and structures involved in the mineralisation at Beadell a high resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey has also been completed by Rumble over E45/2405.
During November and December the company completed 16 RC holes with 6 having diamond core tails (5 at the Maxwell prospect and 1 at the Ninety Nine prospect), extending the intended program of 3,000m to 3,416m. All five holes at the Maxwell prospect intersected extensive semi-massive sulphide mineralisation, which confirms that the electromagnetic (EM) conductors are indicative of mineralisation.
Rumble received $150,000 of funding under the WA State Government"s Exploration Incentive Scheme to assist with drill testing of the EM targets identified by the EM surveys.
The widths of the intersections ranged from 50m to 80m in every hole, with 5% to 35% sulphides present. A total of 235m of sulphide mineralisation has been intersected of the 996m of diamond drilling at the Maxwell prospect. The dominant visual sulphide minerals are pyrrhotite with pyrite (iron) and minor chalcopyrite (copper) present. Analysis of the core is pending.
The drill program has confirmed that the EM target is a large, tabular, high sulphide mineralised system. The drilling has only targeted the upper portion (200m vertical depth) of the larger EM conductive plate which was identified by a moving loop ground EM survey completed in July 2012. This survey indicated that the conductive body extends to at least a 500m vertical depth.
Ashburton Project
The Ashburton Project is situated approximately 270 km east of Exmouth and is accessed via a sealed road from NW Coastal Highway. The project is prospective for gold mineralisation and also for base metals. The larger Ashburton Project has three main areas, Paulsens South, Boolaloo and Kooline.
INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT
DIRECTORS' REPORT
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (CONT.)
Rumble first acquired an interest in the Paulsens South project through a JV with Venture Minerals (ASX:VMS) on E08/1457, E08/1748 and E47/1765 whereby Rumble will earn a 51% interest by the expenditure of $500,000 by 1 July 2014 and a further 19% interest by the expenditure of a further $1 million by 1 July 2016. Rumble must also complete a 1,500m RC/diamond drill program by 1 July 2012 as part of the initial earn in.
Exploration has focussed on generating targets for gold mineralisation along strike of the Paulsens Gold Mine. The mine is operated by Northern Star Resources (ASX: NST) and contains an Indicated and Inferred Resource of 1,268,000t at 5.3 g/t for 226,000 oz. gold and produced 75,000 oz. gold in 2011 at an average grade of 7.9 g/t. Rumble completed a detailed aeromagnetic survey over E47/1765 to provide detailed structural information on the Melrose fault zone.
The Company completed a first pass RC drilling program at Paulsens South with a total of 17 holes for 1,688 metres. This program tested targets on both the Melrose and Highway Fault Zones with four separate drill traverses completed; two at the Highway Fault Zone and one along each of the two dipole-dipole IP lines in the Melrose Fault Zone area. The drilling program tested a combination of geophysical, structural and geochemical targets that are considered prospective for Paulsens-style quartz-sulphide vein hosted gold mineralisation.
Drilling at the Highway Fault Zone intersected numerous quartz veins ranging in width from a few centimetres up to five metres. Veining at the Highway Fault Zone was hosted within variably sheared shale, basalt and dolerite. The western most drill traverse in the Melrose Fault Zone area intersected some quartz veins hosted within massive to strongly sheared basalt. The eastern most drill traverse in the Melrose Fault Zone area intersected gabbro and dolerite. A twelve metre wide fault zone containing pyrrhotite, a magnetic iron sulphide mineral, was intersected along this traverse line and explained the magnetic and chargeability anomaly that was being targeted.
Though intersecting significant widths of quartz veining at the Highway Fault Zone and sulphide mineralisation along the Melrose Fault Zone no significant gold mineralisation was intersected. Two holes returned base metal mineralisation with hole PSRC004 intersecting 4m @ 1470 ppm Zn & 500 ppm Pb from 84m and hole PSRC006 intersecting 4m @ 1260 ppm Cu from 20m.
Exploration licence E08/2309 (Kooline) covering an area of 584km2 is located 50km west of Paraburdoo and was granted during the quarter.
The Kooline Project is mapped as containing Proterozoic rock units of the Ashburton Basin. Several gold prospects occur in the project area and geological mapping and airborne magnetic data indicate the presence of several northwest trending faults.
Forrestania Project
The Forrestania Project is located 80 km east to north east of Hyden and 140 km north of Ravensthorpe in Western Australia. The Project covers part of the Forrestania Greenstone Belt which forms part of the southern extension of the Southern Cross Greenstone Belt. The Company has acquired and initial 51% interest in the Project and can acquire a further 24% interest by the completion of a 1,000m RC drill program.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (CONT.)
Canegrass Project
Rumble has acquired a 90% interest in the Canegrass project for a cash consideration of $10,000 and the issue of 150,000 ordinary fully paid shares. The Canegrass project consists of one granted exploration license, E29/783 and is located 100km north of Kalgoorlie and covers over 100 sq km of greenstone belt. The geology is dominated by a sequence of mafic and ultramafic rocks with minor felsic rocks and metasediments. This sequence has been intruded by fine grained felsic porphyry dykes and quartz veins.
The Canegrass project has favourable geology and structures to host significant gold mineralisation and is also prospective for nickel mineralisation. Exploration to date focussed on mapping and soil/auger geochemistry. The limited soil geochemistry has outlined low levels of anomalous gold mineralisation; no follow up drilling has been completed.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On 4 February 2013, the Group issued 400,000 ordinary shares at $0.125 as consideration to withdraw from the option agreement to purchase the Bulong Project.
No other matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the period which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years.
AUDITOR'S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
The lead auditor's independence declaration under s307c of the Corporations Act 2001 for the half-year ended 31 December 2012 is set out on page 17.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Half-Year Ended 31 December 2012
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation
These interim financial statements constitute a general purpose financial report and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting. Compliance with AASB134 ensures compliance with IAS134: Interim Financial Reports. They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2012.
These interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 14 March 2013.
The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the Company"s last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2012, except for the impact of the Standards and Interpretations described here. These accounting policies are consistent with the Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards.
The Company has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are relevant to their operations and effective for the current half year.
New and revised Standards and amendments thereof and Interpretations effective for the current halfyear that are relevant to the Company include:
Amendments to AASB 1, 5, 7, 101, 112, 120, 121, 132, 133 and 134 as a consequence of AASB 2011-9 "Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income"
The adoption of all the new and revised Standards and Interpretations has not resulted in any changes to the Company"s accounting policies and has no effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior half-years. However, the application of AASB 2011-9 has resulted in changes to the Company"s presentation of, or disclosure in, its half-year financial statements.
Under the amendments to AASB 101, the statement of comprehensive income is renamed as a statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The amendments also require items of other comprehensive income to be grouped into two categories in the other comprehensive income section: (a) items that will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss and (b) items that may be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met. The amendments have been applied retrospectively and the application of the amendments to AASB 101 do not result in any impact on profit or loss, other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income.
Going concern
The half-year financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
The Consolidated Entity incurred a loss for the half-year of $631,912 (31 December 2011: $304,404) and net operating cash outflows of $1,974,357 (31 December 2011: $640,277).
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Half-Year Ended 31 December 2012
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
The ability of the Consolidated Entity to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon the ability of the Consolidated Entity to secure funds by raising capital from equity markets and managing cashflow in line with available funds. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Consolidated Entity to continue as a going concern. In the event the above matters are not achieved, the Consolidated Entity will be required to raise funds for working capital from debt or equity sources.
The directors have prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Consolidated Entity will have sufficient cash flows to meet all commitments and working capital requirements for the 12 month period from the date of signing this financial report.
Based on the cash flow forecasts and other factors referred to above, the directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate. In particular, given the Company's history of raising capital to date, the directors are confident the Company can raise additional funds as and when they are required.
Should the Consolidated Entity be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.

On 6 August 2012, the Group entered into a joint venture agreement with Canyon Resources Limited for the Derosa Project, which comprises of 6 contiguous tenements in Burkina Faso, West Africa through the payment of US$50,000 and issuing 1,500,000 Rumble Shares.
On 16 August 2012, the Group purchased 100% of the issued capital in Goldstone Holdings Pty Ltd ("Goldstone") for $200,000. Goldstone"s holds a 20% interest in the Beadell Project in Western Australia. It is considered that the acquisition of the Project is not a business combination, but rather an acquisition of mining tenements.

As lead audit director for the review of the financial statements of Rumble Resources Limited for the half-year ended 31 December 2012, I declare that to the best of my knowledge and belief, there have been no contraventions of:
the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 in relation to the review; and
any applicable code of professional conduct in relation to the review.
Yours faithfully

Independent Auditor's Review Report
To the Members of Rumble Resources Limited
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Rumble Resources Limited ("the Company") and Controlled Entities ("the Consolidated Entity") which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2012, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, a statement of accounting policies, other selected explanatory notes and the directors' declaration.
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 Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that 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 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 2012 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of Rumble Resources Limited, 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.
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 Rumble Resources Limited and Controlled Entities 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 2012 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
- b. Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.
Emphasis of Matter
Without qualifying our conclusion, we draw attention to Note 1 in the half-year financial report which indicates that the Consolidated Entity incurred a loss for the period ended 31 December 2012 of $631,912. This condition, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Consolidated Entity to continue as a going concern and whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the half-year financial report.
