CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
Dear Fellow Shareholders
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present the Annual Report of St George Mining Limited for the financial year ended 30 June 2015.
St George has, despite the challenging market conditions faced by junior explorers, continued its commitment to intelligent exploration with a focus on delivering significant value to shareholders through the discovery of high quality mineral resources.
Last year was the first full year since the Company regained 100% ownership and control of the flagship East Laverton Property following the withdrawal by BHP Billiton Nickel West from our farm‐in arrangement in the fourth quarter of 2013.
We were able to accelerate exploration at the Project during the year through a comprehensive and multi‐ faceted field programme that included extensive electromagnetic surveys and two major drilling campaigns. This work followed on from the successful project‐scale exploration completed by Nickel West under the farm‐ in and substantially added to the $3 million database that we inherited from our former partner.
One of the highlights in 2014 was the successful drilling at the Windsor nickel sulphide prospect which identified further high tenor disseminated nickel sulphides over a 200 metre strike length, within a large high‐ MgO ultramafic channel that extends over 4 km. The growing evidence of widespread nickel sulphide mineralisation in this thick komatiite channel significantly raises the likelihood of the largely untested prospective basal contact to host massive nickel sulphide deposits.
A project‐wide exploration review was completed during the year in conjunction with a global nickel expert. The review, which utilised the expanded technical database and incorporated the latest nickel targeting concepts, confirmed the compelling potential of our Project to host multiple nickel sulphide deposits and to emerge as a new nickel sulphide camp.
An extensive portfolio of prospects has been established across our large and strategic landholding. These have been prioritised for systematic exploration with a number of prospects ready for drill testing in the 2015 drilling campaign.
St George completed over‐subscribed capital raisings in October 2014 and June 2015, demonstrating strong support from existing and new shareholders. Our shareholder base has expanded from around 500 shareholders at the start of 2014 to over 1,400 registered shareholders today as investors increasingly recognise the significant potential of our Project to deliver a major discovery.
The Board looks forward to an exciting year in 2015 as we continue our focus on building long term value for shareholders through exploration success.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
EAST LAVERTON PROPERTY (100% ST GEORGE)
St George Mining owns 100% of the East Laverton Property, which covers over 2,100 square kilometres in the north‐east corner of the Eastern Goldfields Province.
The first nickel sulphide drilling at the Project was completed in 2012 by St George Mining and BHP Billiton Nickel West, under a now concluded farm‐in arrangement. The drilling was successful in discovering nickel sulphides at the Project with key intersections:
-
18m @ 0.40% Ni from 100m including 4m @ 0.57% Ni from 100m in hole DRAC35
-
30m @ 0.31% Ni from 108m including 2m @ 0.62% Ni from 132m in hole DRAC38
-
2m @ 1.08% Ni from 55m and 2m @ 0.43% Ni from 59m in hole DDNRC002
These results confirmed the presence of magmatic nickel sulphide mineralisation and the potential of the extensive strike length of ultramafic belts at the Project to host economic mineralisation. This was a major milestone which substantially de‐risked the Project.
Continued exploration at the Project has established an extensive portfolio of high quality nickel sulphide targets and supports the emergence of the Project as a new nickel sulphide province (see Figure 1).

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Acceleration of Field Exploration Activities
St George Mining believes that a disciplined and technically focused approach to exploration, integrating all available information and employing innovative approaches, will lead to exploration success.
Over the past 12 months, the Company completed a multi‐phase field programme to progress the systematic exploration of a range of prospects at the Project.
Field work included over 100,000 metres coverage of ground electromagnetic (EM) surveys, 15 diamond core drill holes for 3,667 metres drilled and 21 reverse circulation drill holes for 4,890 metres drilled. Downhole EM surveys were carried out on the completed drill holes.
The significant technical data generated by this field work has enabled a detailed structural, geological and stratigraphic analysis of the prospects. Laboratory assays are analysed for a comprehensive suite of elements and this has facilitated the use of litho‐geochemistry as an important vectoring tool to establish targets.
Our portfolio of drill‐ready targets has been increased, illustrating the substantial exploration upside at East Laverton and bringing us closer to a major discovery.
Pipeline of EM Targets
The regional moving loop electromagnetic (MLEM) survey initiated by the Company in Q4 2013 was continued during the past year across the priority nickel sulphide prospects at the East Laverton Property.
A number of new EM anomalies have been identified by Newexco, the Company’s geophysical adviser, which warrant follow‐up exploration.
Several of the EM anomalies were modelled as bedrock conductors, with conductivity and exponential time decays that were consistent with the EM response from massive sulphide bodies.
The EM anomalies are rigorously screened along with their corresponding structural, geological, geophysical and geochemical attributes. The most favourable conductors based on the available evidence are prioritised for drill testing.
Attractive EM targets have been generated at Desert Dragon North, Desert Dragon Central, Windsor, Aphrodite and Cambridge North and will be scheduled for drilling in 2015. Follow‐up EM surveys are continuing at other prospects and further EM targets are expected to be identified next year.
The strong pipeline of EM targets emphasises the regional scale of St George’s Project and its potential to host multiple massive nickel sulphide deposits.

Windsor – Nickel Sulphide Zone Extended
Four of the six drill holes completed at Windsor in late 2014 successfully intersected nickel sulphides. All six holes intersected the thick, highly prospective komatiite channel which hosts this mineralisation.
The following results illustrate the thick ultramafic sequences encountered by drilling, and the higher grade nickel sulphide intervals within those units:
-
WINRC004 ‐ 89m @ 0.20%Ni from 57m, including: 2m @ 0.40%Ni from 122m
-
WINRC005 ‐ 147m @ 0.25%Ni from 124m, including 7m @ 0.34%Ni from 161m and 1m @ 0.40%Ni from 292m
-
WINRC007 ‐ 90m @ 0.20%Ni from 227m, including 1m @ 0.75%Ni from 286m
The drilling results at Windsor define a large linear komatiite channel flow that locally hosts a zone of disseminated nickel sulphides, which is open laterally and at depth. Figure 3 is a cross‐section of the completed drill holes which illustrates the zone of disseminated nickel sulphides.
There is a documented relationship between disseminated and massive nickel sulphide mineralisation in komatiite hosted nickel deposits.
Massive nickel sulphides are typically deposited in lower MgO facies at the base and flanks of the channel. Disseminated nickel sulphides can occur as a halo above the massive sulphides, and provide an indicator for the presence of massive sulphides.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
A petrographic examination of the disseminated nickel sulphides in hole DRAC38 confirmed the only nickel sulphide present as pentlandite, indicating the high tenor of the nickel mineralisation at Windsor.
Figure 4 illustrates the ultramafic channel interpreted at Windsor and shows the broadly distributed disseminated nickel sulphide mineralisation, which is open to the north and south along strike.

Windsor is an optimal search‐area for massive nickel sulphide mineralisation and only 200m of the 4,600m strike length of the basal contact has been tested to date.
Further drilling will be planned for Windsor to follow up on the high tenor nickel sulphides intersected in the 2014 drilling campaign.

Technical Review
A milestone Technical Review of the Project was completed in Q1 2015, utilising the expanded database following the substantial exploration programs completed in 2014. The Review concluded that the Project represents a significant and de‐risked exploration opportunity with the size and necessary geological criteria to host multiple nickel sulphide deposits.
Drilling at the Project has confirmed extensive strike lengths of thick high‐MgO olivine‐rich rocks, particularly on the Stella Range belt. These rocks contain an estimated volatile‐free MgO content up to 50% and Mg up to 93, indicating that the rocks were formed from a very magnesian parental magma.
These high MgO komatiites reflect a core area of komatiite magmatism controlled by major crustal and sub‐ crustal structures that have allowed the transport and deposition of high volumes of very hot komatiites at high flow rates. This is a primary requisite for large nickel sulphide deposits.
The Review noted that this parental magma composition is similar to the Agnew‐Wiluna belt and rare in the Yilgarn outside Forrestania and Agnew‐Wiluna.
St George Mining Limited – Annual Report 2015
P 8
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
A key feature of large and well‐mineralised nickel camps is favourable sub‐crustal and crustal rift architecture, which controls the distribution of komatiite volcanism and nickel sulphide deposition. Typically, this architecture involves deep rifts controlled by rift parallel faults that are cross‐cut by major transform faults.
Rift parallel faults are the large regional NW‐NNW trending shear zones. The transform (or rift normal) faults are early and fundamental structures that become more cryptic in nature as they are obscured by overlying stratigraphy and late local faults developed in these covering rocks.
The intersections of these structures are areas that experience higher volumes, higher temperatures and higher flow rates of komatiite magma, creating enhanced conditions for nickel sulphide deposition. These important areas are associated with greenstone depocentres, the thickest and deepest part of the komatiite‐ hosting rift. Major nickel deposits are known to form in proximity to the intersection of these structures, including the Perseverance, Mt Keith and Cliffs deposits in the Agnew‐Wiluna belt.
The Review found this favourable structural architecture to be present at St George’s Project, where the main NNW trending rift‐parallel structures are intersected by the more cryptic NE trending transform faults; see Figure 5.
==> picture [483 x 179] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [483 x 178] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 5 – Fundamental rift architecture is prominent at St George’s Project with major NNW fault zones cross cut by cryptic transfer structures like the Churchill Lineament. Known nickel sulphides and high‐MgO komatiite channels are closely associated with the intersection of these structures. This architecture is very similar to the structural architecture seen at highly mineralised komatiite hosted nickel camps including at Forrestania and in the Agnew‐Wiluna belt.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
An 18km strike length of the Stella Range belt ‐ which covers the Desert Dragon and Windsor prospects – was highlighted as being the most prospective area for nickel sulphide mineralisation within the Project area (see Figure 6).
Strong similarities exist between the geological setting and features of this area and those of highly mineralised komatiite nickel sulphide belts, particularly the Forrestania and the Agnew‐Wiluna belts.
The Review also identified the extensive strike length of basal contact present within this area, and how this prospective surface has been significantly extended by the complex folding which was once linear in nature. Only a small section of the prospective basal contact of this target area (possibly less than 5%) has been drill tested to date. Substantial exploration upside remains at these prospects.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Drilling Increases VMS Prospectivity
This year we also saw increasing evidence for the presence of VMS‐style base metal mineralisation at the Project. Multiple and widespread intersections of copper and zinc sulphide mineralisation were made at the property. VMS mineralisation is situated off the ultramafic belts and has not been considered in historical exploration.
Four RC drill holes were completed as part of the 2014 Phase 2 drilling program to follow‐up the significant zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) mineralisation that was intersected in drill hole DDD011. Three of these holes returned anomalous intersections of zinc. These are interpreted to be within a marginal (zinc dominant) phase of a larger VMS (volcanic massive sulphide) system.
In addition, a number of other nickel‐focused holes were completed at Desert Dragon, and also intersected horizons with elevated zinc and copper values. For example, drill hole DDRC036 intersected 4m @ 0.76% Zn from 123m including 1m @1.45% Zn from 125m .
These intervals were within a thick interval of 23m @ 0.15% Zn from 121m. This metal enrichment is likely associated with the presence of metal‐rich and sulphidic exhalative‐sediments, which usually form as a broad aureole around VMS deposits.
The limited base metal exploration so far has returned very encouraging results, and strongly supports the case for the presence of economic occurrences of VMS‐style mineralisation to be present at East Laverton. Additional VMS‐style base‐metal targets will be developed for drill testing in 2015.
LAKE MINIGWAL PROJECT (100% ST GEORGE)
St George Mining owns 100% of the Lake Minigwal Project, an area to the south‐west of the East Laverton Property (see Figure 7).
The Lake Minigwal tenements cover a strong cluster of highly anomalous gold soil values identified by a regional geochemical soil survey conducted by the GSWA (Geological Survey of Western Australia) in 2011.
St George believes the Lake Minigwal Project hosts a large area of a concealed and unexplored greenstone belt that is prospective for gold and nickel sulphide mineralisation.
During the year, St George completed a review of acquired airborne magnetics for the area and completed ground gravity and soil geochemical surveys at the Lake Minigwal Project.
The gravity data identified a large area of higher density which was co‐incident with a strong magnetic response. This area is interpreted to be a large mass of greenstone.
This interpretation was validated by the coincident nickel‐cobalt soil geochemical responses from our partial leach soil geochemical survey (see Figure 8). Nickel and cobalt are two elements commonly used to distinguish greenstones from other rocks with less mafic minerals.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
==> picture [385 x 368] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 7 – the Lake Minigwal Project is illustrated relative to the East Laverton Property. The region hosts major gold projects including the Laverton goldfield to the north‐west (Sunrise Dam +12Moz Au), Tropicana (+10Moz Au) to the north‐east and Gold Road’s Yamarna project (+4Moz Au) to the north
A large, composite gold + molybdenum + arsenic soil anomaly covered an area in excess of 5,000 m along the northern greenstone‐sediment contact. The gold anomalism was also constrained within a NW trending structure (see Figure 9).
It is believed that the position of the gold anomalism along the greenstone‐sediment margin is significant. The major gold deposits in the Laverton goldfield to the west are hosted in sedimentary rather than greenstone rocks.
The next phase of exploration at the Lake Minigwal Project will follow‐up on the positive results from the initial field exploration, with reconnaissance drilling planned for the 2015 field season.

REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED
Remuneration policy
The remuneration policy of St George Mining Limited has been designed to align directors’ objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component, which is assessed on an annual basis in line with market rates. The Board of St George Mining Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best directors to run and manage the Company.
St George Mining Limited – Annual Report 2015
P 17
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members is as follows:
-
The remuneration policy and setting the terms and conditions for the Executive directors and other senior staff members is developed and approved by the Board based on local and international trends among comparative companies and industry generally. It examines terms and conditions for employee incentive schemes, benefit plans and share plans. Independent advice is obtained when considered necessary to confirm that executive remuneration is in line with market practice and is reasonable within Australian executive reward practices.
-
All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience) and superannuation.
-
The Group is an exploration entity, and therefore speculative in terms of performance. Consistent with attracting and retaining talented executives, directors and senior executives are paid market rates associated with individuals in similar positions within the same industry. Options and performance incentives may be issued particularly as the entity moves from an exploration to a producing entity and key performance indicators such as profit and production and reserves growth can be used as measurements for assessing executive performance.
-
The Board policy is to remunerate non‐executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The Executive Directors, in consultation with independent advisors, determine payments to the non‐executives and review their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non‐executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting and is currently $150,000 per annum. Fees for independent non‐executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. To align Directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
1 CORPORATE INFORMATION
The financial report of St George Mining Limited (”St George Mining” or “the Company”) for the year ended 30 June 2015 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on 7 August 2015.
St George Mining Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated in Australia on 19 October 2009. The consolidated financial statements of the Company for year ended 30 June 2015 comprise of the Company and its subsidiaries together referred to as the Group or consolidated entity.
The nature of the operations and principal activity of the Group is mineral exploration.
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of Preparation of the Financial Report
The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations and complies with other requirements of the law. The financial report also complies with the International Financial Reporting Standards. The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars. The following accounting policies have been adopted by the consolidated entity.
Going Concern
The directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
The Consolidated Entity has recorded a net accounting loss of $3,127,847 and net operating cash outflows of $2,949,895 for the year ended 30 June 2015.
The Directors have determined that future equity raisings or debt financing arrangements will be required to assist funding of the Company’s activities to meet the Company’s objectives. The Directors are investigating a number of options in respect of equity and debt financing arrangements. There is no certainty that these will be successfully completed to provide adequate working capital for the Company.
The Board however is confident, subject to the successful completion of future equity raisings or debt financing arrangements, that the Group will have sufficient funds to finance its operations in the 2015/2016 Financial Year.
(b) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent St George Mining Limited and all of the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 23.
The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries
St George Mining Limited – Annual Report 2015
P 29
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non controlling interests". The Group initially recognises non‐controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non‐controlling interests' proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non‐controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non‐controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income.
(c) Business combinations
Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses and results in the consolidation of its assets and liabilities.
A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or businesses under common control. The acquisition method requires that for each business combination one of the combining entities must be identified as the acquirer (i.e. parent entity). The business combination will be accounted for as at the acquisition date, which is the date that control over the acquiree is obtained by the parent entity. At this date, the parent shall recognise, in the consolidated accounts, and subject to certain limited exceptions, the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In addition, contingent liabilities of the acquiree will be recognised where a present obligation has been incurred and its fair value can be reliably measured.
The acquisition may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. The method adopted for the measurement of goodwill will impact on the measurement of any non‐controlling interest to be recognised in the acquiree where less than 100% ownership interest is held in the acquiree.
The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for a business combination plus the acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial statements. Consideration may comprise the sum of the assets transferred by the acquirer, liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the acquirer.
Fair value uplifts in the value of pre‐existing holdings are taken to the statement of comprehensive income. Where changes in the value of such equity holdings had previously been recognised in other comprehensive income, such amounts are recycled to profit or loss.
Included in the measurement of consideration transferred is any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Any obligation incurred relating to contingent consideration is classified as either a financial liability or equity instrument, depending upon the nature of the arrangement. Rights to refunds of consideration previously paid are recognised as a receivable. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or a liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value through the statement of comprehensive income unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.
All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the statement of comprehensive income.

(d) Adoption of new and revised standards
None of the new standards and amendments to standards that are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 July 2014 affected any of the amounts recognised in the current period or any prior period, although it caused minor changes to the Group’s disclosures.
(e) Statement of compliance
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (“AIFRS”). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
(f) Income Tax
Current income tax refunded/(expensed) charged to profit or loss is tax refundable/(payable). Those amounts recognised are expected to be recovered from/(paid to) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:
-
except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither that accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and,
-
in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all the deductible temporary differences, carry‐forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry‐forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:
-
except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and,
-
in respect of deductible temporary differences with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interest in joint ventures, deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are not in the income statement.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
(g) Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditure on areas of interest are expensed as incurred. Costs of acquisition will normally be expensed but will be assessed on a case by case basis and may be capitalised to areas of interest and carried forward where right of tenure of the area of interest is current and they are expected to be recouped through sale or successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or, where exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
When an area of interest is abandoned or the directors decide that it is not commercial, any accumulated acquisition costs in respect of that area are written off in the financial period the decision is made. Each area of interest is also reviewed at the end of each accounting period and accumulated costs written off to the extent that they will not be recoverable in the future. Where projects have advanced to the stage that directors have made a decision to mine, they are classified as development properties. When further development expenditure is incurred in respect of a development property, such expenditure is carried forward as part of the cost of that development property only when substantial future economic benefits are established. Otherwise such expenditure is classified as part of the cost of production or written off where production has not commenced.
(h) Revenue
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method.
(i) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and short‐term deposits in the consolidated Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short‐term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
For the purposes of the consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
(j) Employee benefits
Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits expected to be settled within one year together with entitlements arising from wages and salaries and annual leave which will be settled after one year, have measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on‐costs. Other employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated cash outflows to be made to those benefits.
Contributions are made by the Group to employee superannuation funds and are charged as expenses when incurred.
(k) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is calculated on a diminishing value basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:
St George Mining Limited – Annual Report 2015
P 32
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
| Class of Fixed Asset | Depreciation Rate |
|---|---|
| Plant and Equipment | |
| ‐ Year 1 | 18.75% |
| ‐ Subsequent Years | 37.50% |
The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.
(l) Impairment of assets
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value; less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset’s value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash‐ generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash‐generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash‐generating unit is considered impaired and it is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre‐ tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease).
An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systemic basis over its remaining useful life.
(m) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated as net loss attributable to members of the Company, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
(n) Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (“ATO”). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the consolidated Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
St George Mining Limited – Annual Report 2015
P 33
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
Cash Flows are included in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows net of GST. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financial activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.
(o) Investments
All investments are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given and including acquisition charges associated with the investment.
After initial recognition, investments, which are classified as held for trading and available‐for‐sale, are measured at fair value. Gains or losses on investments held for trading are recognised in the consolidated profit or loss.
Gains or losses on available‐for‐sale investments are recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is sold, collected or otherwise disposed of, or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is included in the profit or loss.
(p) Financial assets
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual rights to the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows from the financial assets expire or are transferred and no longer controlled by the entity. A financial liability is removed from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Financial assets and financial liabilities classified as held for trading are measured at fair value through the profit or loss.
Upon initial recognition a financial asset or financial liability is designated as at fair value through the profit or loss when:
-
(a) an entire contract containing one or more embedded derivatives is designated as a financial asset or financial liability at fair value through the profit or loss;
-
(b) doing so results in more relevant information, because either:
-
(i) it eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognizing gains or losses on them on different bases; or
-
(ii) a group of financial assets, financial liabilities or both is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the group is provided internally on that basis to key management personnel.
Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market, and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are not designated as at fair value through the profit or loss.
A gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value of a financial asset or financial liability classified as at fair value through the profit or loss is recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial assets not measured at fair value comprise:
- a) loans and receivables being non‐derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method;
St George Mining Limited – Annual Report 2015
P 34
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
-
(b) held‐to‐maturity investments being non‐derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that will be held to maturity. These are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method; and
-
(c) investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and the fair value of which cannot be reliably measured. These are measured at cost together with derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by the delivery of such investments.
Available‐for‐sale financial assets are non‐derivative financial assets, which are designated as available‐for‐sale or that are not classified as loans and receivables, held‐to‐maturity investments or financial assets as at fair value through the profit and loss.
A gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value of an available‐for‐sale financial asset is recognised directly in equity, through the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity (except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains or losses) until the financial asset is derecognised at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in equity is recognised in the profit or loss.
Regular way purchases of financial assets are accounted for as follows:
-
financial assets held for trading – at trade date
-
held‐to‐maturity investments – at trade date
-
loans and receivables – at trade date
-
available‐for‐sale financial assets – at trade date
Except for the following all financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method:
-
(a) financial liabilities at fair value through the profit and loss and derivatives that are liabilities measured at fair value;
-
(b) financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of financial asset does not qualify for de‐recognition or are accounted for using the continuing involvement approach.
The amortised cost of a financial asset or a financial liability is the amount initially recognised minus principal repayments, plus or minus cumulative amortisation of any difference between the initial amount and maturity amount and minus any write‐down for impairment or un‐collectability.
(q) Contributed equity
Ordinary shares and options are classified as contributed equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of GST, from the proceeds.
(r) Significant accounting estimates and judgements
The carrying amount of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:
Deferred taxation
The potential deferred tax asset arising from the tax losses and temporary differences have not been recognised as an asset because recovery of the tax losses is not yet considered probable (refer note 5).
St George Mining Limited – Annual Report 2015
P 35
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
Subsidiary Loans
Provision has been made for all unsecured loans with subsidiaries as it is uncertain if and when the loans will be recovered.
Capitalised exploration costs
The application of the Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure requires judgement in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits are likely, either from future exploration or sale, or where activities have not reached a stage which permits reasonable assessment.
(s) Comparative information
Comparative information is amended where appropriate to ensure consistency in presentation with the current year.

25 NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS FOR APPLICATION IN FUTURE PERIODS
A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations issued by the AASB which are not yet mandatorily applicable to the Group have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Those which may be relevant to the Group are set out below. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early.
- AASB 9 Financial Instruments and associated Amending Standards (applicable for annual reporting period commencing 1 January 2018)
The Standard will be applicable retrospectively (subject to the comment on hedge accounting below) and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, revised recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments and simplified requirements for hedge accounting.
Key changes made to this standard that may affect the Group on initial application include certain simplifications to the classification of financial assets, simplifications to the accounting of embedded derivatives, and the irrevocable election to recognise gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income.
The directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 will not have a material impact on the Group’s financial instruments.
- AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2017).
When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to revenue with a single, principles‐based model. Except for a limited number of exceptions, including leases, the new revenue model in AASB 15 will apply to all contracts with customers as well as non‐monetary exchanges between entities in the same line of business to facilitate sales to customers and potential customers.
The core principle of the Standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. To achieve this objective, AASB 15 provides the following five‐step process:
-
identify the contract(s) with a customer;
-
identify the performance obligations in the contract(s);
-
determine the transaction price;
-
allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and
-
recognise revenue when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied.
This Standard will require retrospective restatement, as well as enhanced disclosures regarding revenue.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2015
The directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 15 will not have a material impact on the Group’s revenue recognition and disclosures.
Other standards not yet applicable
There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ST GEORGE MINING LIMITED
Report on the Financial Report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of St George Mining Limited, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2015, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, 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 the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
Directors’ responsibility for the Financial Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In note 2(a), the directors also state, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the company’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

Auditor’s Opinion
In our opinion:
-
(a) the financial report of St George Mining Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(i) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2015 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
-
(b) the consolidated financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in note 2(a).
Inherent Material Uncertainty Regarding Going Concern
Without qualification to the opinion expressed above, attention is drawn to the following matter:
As referred to in Note 2(a) to the financial statements, the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. The consolidated entity comprising the Company and its subsidiaries has incurred a loss of $3,127,847 for the year ended 30 June 2015 and had net operating cash outflows of $2,949,895 for the year ended 30 June 2015. The working capital as at 30 June 2015 is $512,481. The ability of the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern and meet its planned exploration, administration and other commitments is dependent upon the consolidated entity raising further working capital and/or successfully exploiting its mineral assets. In the event that the consolidated entity is not successful in raising further equity or successfully exploiting its mineral assets, the consolidated entity may not be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due and the realisable value of the consolidated entity’s current and non-current assets may be significantly less than book values.
Report on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the remuneration report included in pages 17 to 23 of the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2015. The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the remuneration report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the remuneration report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards
Auditor’s Opinion
In our opinion the remuneration report of St George Mining Limited for the year ended 30 June 2015 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
