REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
During the period, Rumble Resources Ltd ("Group") executed the Board's clear strategy of generating a pipeline of quality high grade base and precious metal projects at various stages of exploration and development, critically reviewing them against stringent criteria developed by Rumble's highly regarded technical director Brett Keillor, negotiating low cost upfront optionality and systematically exploring multiple projects to test for high grade world class discoveries.
During the half-year ending 31 December 2019, the Group renegotiated and exercised the option to acquire 75% of the Earaheedy Project and subsequently commenced a drill program at the Earaheedy Project.
The Group also commenced drill programs at the Munarra Gully project, the Western Queen Gold Project and completed a drill program at the Panache Project in the Sudbury region in Canada.
On 22 July 2019 the Group entered into an earn-in joint venture agreement with AIC Mines Limited in respect of the Lamil project. Under that agreement, AIC can earn a 50% interest in the Lamil Project by spending $6 million over 4 years and can can earn 65% by spending a further $4million over 1 year. The Option fee to commence the JV was AIC issuing Rumble 714,286 new shares for nil consideration. The shares in AIC were issued to Rumble in August 2019.
On 6 August 2019 the Group executed an option agreement to acquire the Western Queen Gold Project in Western Australia. The Western Queen Gold Project comprises two contiguous mining leases (M59/45 and M59/208) for a total area of 9.8 km2 .
On 3 September 2019 the Group announced a placement to raise $3,750,000 via the issue of 50,000,000 shares at $0.075 per share. This placement introduced two new strategic, cornerstone investors to the Company.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These financial statements and notes represent those of Rumble Resources Limited and controlled entities (the "Group"). Rumble is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
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 Group as at and for the year ended 30 June 2019.
These interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 12 March 2020.
The 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.
All monetary values are reported in Australian Dollar unless otherwise stated.
a) Adoption of new and revised accounting standards
The accounting policies adopted in the current year are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the Group's 2019 Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2019 except for the adoption of AASB 16 Leases ("AASB 16").
The Group has adopted AASB 16 using the modified retrospective approach from 1 July 2019 but has not restated comparatives for the 2019 reporting period, as permitted under the specific transitional provision in the standard.
Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any re-measurement of lease liabilities.
The consolidated entity has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.
Lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the consolidated entity's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under -residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Rumble Resources Ltd & Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Half-Year Ended 31 December 2019
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.
Practical expedients applied
In applying AASB16 for the first time, the Group has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:
- Reliance on previous assessment on whether leases are onerous;
- The accounting for operating leases with a remaining term of less than 12 months as at 1 July 2019 as short-term leases;
- The exclusion of initial direct costs for the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application; and
- The use of hindsight in determining the leases term where the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.
The Group has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before the transition date the Group relied on its assessment made applying AASB117 and IFRlC4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease.
As the Group do not have any leases, AASB 16 'Leases' had no a significant impact on the current period.

(1) During the half-year ended 31 December 2019, tenement license E59/2359 was relinquished, and tenement license M51/0122 was subsequently relinquished in February 2020.
The value of the Group's interest in exploration expenditure is dependent upon:
- the continuance of the Group's rights to tenure of the areas of interest;
- the results of future exploration; and
- the recoupment of costs through successful development and exploitation of the areas of interest, or alternatively, by their sale.

NOTE 9: OPERATING SEGMENTS
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the board of directors (chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The Group has one operating segment being mining exploration in Australia.
NOTE 10: COMMITMENTS
Exploration expenditure commitments
In order to maintain current rights of tenure to exploration tenements, the Group is required to meet the minimum expenditure requirements specified by the relevant authorities. These obligations are subject to renegotiation when application for a mining lease is made and at other times. These obligations are not provided for in the financial report.

If the Group decides to relinquish certain leases and/or does not meet these obligations, assets recognised in the Statement of Financial Position may require review to determine the appropriateness of carrying values. The sale, transfer or farm-out of exploration rights to third parties will reduce or extinguish these obligations. The ultimate recoupment of costs carried forward for exploration and evaluation is dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation or sale of the respective mining areas.

PERTH Dated this 12 March 2020

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 2019, 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 of the Consolidated Entity, comprising the Company and the entities it controlled 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 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 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 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 2019 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 the Consolidated Entity, 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 2019 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.
