DIRECTORS’ REPORT
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
1. Company Projects
Strike Resources is an Australian based mineral exploration and development company with a prospective portfolio of mineral exploration projects in Peru, Australia and Indonesia:
| PROJECTS | PROJECTS | LOCATION | COMMODITY | AREA(Hectares) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (1) | Apurimac | Apurimac District, Peru | Iron Ore | 20,888 |
| (2) | Cuzco | Cuzco District, Peru | Iron Ore | 4,926 |
| (3) | Banten | West Java, Indonesia | Copper/Gold | 5,601 |
| (4) | Paulsens East | West Pilbara, Western Australia | Iron Ore and Gold | 1,964 |
| (5) | KingSound | West Kimberley,Western Australia | Mineral Sands | 65,200 |
Peru is a major mining country and a top five producer of several base and precious metals, including copper and gold. Strike’s confidence in Peru's mining and contractual laws is supported by the presence in the country of some of the world's leading mining companies. Although the country has had a long history of mining, its mineral potential is still considered outstanding as mineral discoveries continue to be made.
2. Apurimac and Cuzco Iron Ore Projects (Peru)
By the AF Agreement and the MAPSA Agreement, the Company has secured the right to progressively earn a 68.15% or greater interest in potentially large high grade hematite and magnetite deposits in Peru – the Apurimac and Cuzco Projects – through an investment in Apurimac Ferrum S.A. ( AF ), a Peruvian company that holds title to the concessions in the projects.
On 19 July 2007, the Company announced a total JORC Compliant Inferred Resource within the Opaban I and III concessions of 172 million tonnes grading 62.28% , based on 6,383 metres of assayed RC and diamond drilling conducted at Opaban I and 1,102 metres of assayed diamond drilling conducted at Opaban III (Apurimac Project).
The Company has previously announced details of these projects based upon reports issued by the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mines ( PMEM ).
Subsequent announcements by the Company have contained JORC compliant resource estimates for a portion of the Apurimac Project area based on drilling conducted within 2 (Opaban I and III) of the 25 concessions for that area and a resource estimate for the Cuzco Project area based on detailed geophysical work conducted on that area.
The following table summarises these estimates:
| Estimate | Source | |
|---|---|---|
| Apurimac Project | 730 Mt target mineralisation | PMEM |
| Including: Opaban I Concession | 151 Mt JORC Inferred Mineral Resource | Strike3 |
| Opaban III Concession | 21 Mt JORC Inferred Mineral Resource | Strike4 |
| Cuzco Project | 570Mt to 650Mt target mineralisation | Strike5 |
(It is noted however that the target mineralisation referred to above by PMEM and for the Cuzco Project is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration to define a JORC compliant Mineral Resource and it remains to be ascertained if exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.)
3 19 July 2007: ASX market announcement titled “Apurimac Project - JORC Resource Statement”

3. Investment in Apurimac Ferrum S.A (Peru)
AF Agreement
On 2 July 2006, the Company entered into the “AF Agreement” with Peruvian companies, Apurimac Ferrum S.A. ( AF ), Minera los Andes y el Pacífico S.A. ( MAPSA ) and D&C Pesca S.A.C. ( D&C ) (with a more formal shareholders’ agreement executed on 10 November 2006) pursuant to which Strike has secured the right to earn a 51% (or greater) direct interest in the Apurimac Project or the Cuzco Project or both (at Strike’s election) through a progressive US$6.5 million investment in AF (which holds title to such projects) and the exercise of options to acquire AF shares from D&C and MAPSA (at a total cost of US$34.5 million), within a 5 year period.
After such investment and acquisition, Strike will hold a direct 51% shareholding in AF with D&C and MAPSA each holding a residual 24.5% interest in AF.
During the financial year, Strike contributed US$2.70 million into AF, of which US$0.75 million has been capitalised into fully paid shares in AF, giving Strike a 1.622% shareholding interest in AF as at 30 June 2007.
On 2 August 2007, AF shareholders approved the capitalisation of the balance of Strike’s contributions, giving Strike a 5.208% direct shareholding interest in AF. Strike's current direct and indirect (via its 70% shareholding in Iron Associates Corporation) is approximately 23.83%.
The Company has contributed a further US$0.4 million into AF between 1 July 2007 and the date of this report which is pending AF shareholder approval for capitalisation into AF shares.
After the completion of Strike’s obligations to contribute a total of US$6.5 million into AF, Strike will have earned a 12.5% shareholding interest in AF. Strike’s interest will increase to a 51% direct interest upon exercising options to acquire an aggregate 38.5% interest from MAPSA and D&C in consideration for US$34.5 million.
A detailed summary of the terms of the AF Agreement is contained in the Company’s ASX market announcement dated 4 July 2006 and titled “Peru Iron Ore Update.”
MAPSA Agreement
On 1 February 2007, the Company entered into the “MAPSA Agreement” with MAPSA and shareholders of MAPSA ( MAPSA Shareholders ) pursuant to which Strike acquired a 70% interest in MAPSA’s residual interest in AF, in consideration for staged payments totalling US$10 million (being a combination of US$6 million cash and the issue of 3 million Strike shares) over 2 years and a further US$10 million when production and sales from these projects first exceeds 20 million tonnes per annum.
Strike has fulfilled its obligations to date in paying US$2.5 million cash and electing to issue 3 million shares (in lieu of a US$4 million cash payment) to the MAPSA Shareholders during the financial year.
A detailed summary of the terms of the MAPSA Agreement is contained in the Company’s ASX market announcement dated 7 February 2007 and titled “Strike Acquires Further Interest in Apurimac and Cuzco Iron Ore Projects in Peru.”
Therefore, upon the completion of Strike’s obligations under the AF Agreement, Strike will have gained a direct 51% shareholding interest in AF in addition to its controlling 70% interest in a further 24.5% shareholding interest in AF held by IAC.

4. Acquisition of Additional Concessions In Apurimac District (Peru)
On 18 May 2007, Strike Resources Peru SAC (the Peruvian subsidiary of the Company) entered into an assignment and option agreement with a Peruvian vendor in respect of three mineral concessions in the Apurimac District totalling 1,900 hectares, being the Cristoforo 14, Cristoforo 28 and Ferroso 29 concessions.
The agreement was executed as the Company had determined that these concessions contained outcrops of iron ore mineralisation which extend from Apurimac Ferrum’s existing concessions. The Company believes these concessions have the potential to expand the total resource base of the Apurimac Project.
The consideration payable for the assignment of mining rights to Strike Resources Peru SAC (or assignees) for a two year period is US$200,000, of which US$70,000 was paid on execution of the agreement and US$70,000 is payable after 12 months and US$60,000 is payable after 18 months.
The option to acquire these three mineral concessions is for a period of two years and the exercise price is US$3 million.
Strike Resources Peru SAC’s rights under this assignment and option agreement is assignable and as the concessions are located near some of the Apurimac Project concessions held by Apurimac Ferrum, it is intended that these concessions be assigned to Apurimac Ferrum at cost.

6. Sale of Interest In Berau Coal Project (East Kalimantan, Indonesia)
By a cooperation agreement dated 12 April 2007 between SOPL, PTIB and PT Kaltim Jaya Bara ( KJB ), PTIB had acquired the right to exclusively conduct general survey activities, explore for, exploit, mine and sell coal and methane gas and other minerals in the concession area (of 5,000 hectares located approximately 40 kilometres south-west of Tanjungredeb (Berau) and approximately 350 kilometres north of Balikpapan (the capital city of Kalimantan).
Under the terms of the agreement, Strike had paid US$30,000 (after execution of the agreement) to KJB and had the following future payment and royalty obligations to KJB:
-
(a) Three staged cash payments totalling US$0.50 million over a 12 month period; and
-
(b) Royalties of between US$1.00 to $4.00 per dry metric tonne of coal mined and sold from the concession area, depending on the calorific value of the coal (ranging from 5,000 to 6,000 KCal and above) and the waste to ore ratio.
On 27 June 2007, SOPL and PTIB reached agreement with Orion Indo Operations Pty Ltd ( OIO ) and PT Orion Indo Mining[11] ( PTOIM ) for PTIB assigned to PTOIM 70% of its interest in the Berau Coal Project; PTOIM has agreed to assume the obligations (effective from 19 June 2007) under the original cooperation agreement with KJB; PTIB 30% interest is free-carried until a Decision to Mine[12] is made by PTOIM.
If a party elects not to contribute to expenditure in such circumstances, its interest in the Berau Coal Project shall be diluted on a pro-rata basis. If PTIB’s interest is diluted to below 10%, PTIB’s interest shall be transferred to PTOIM in consideration for a royalty to PTIB of 7.5% of net profits derived from coal resources produced and sold.
The decision to farm-out its interest in this project was made to allow Strike to focus on development of its core Peruvian iron ore projects.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Board Committees
During the financial year and as at the date of this Directors’ Report, the Company did not have separate designated Audit or Remuneration Committees. In the opinion of the Directors, in view of the size of the Board and nature and scale of the Consolidated Entity's activities, matters typically dealt with by an Audit or Remuneration Committee are dealt with by the full Board.
REMUNERATION REPORT
This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each Director of the Company and Executive Officer of the Consolidated Entity.
The information provided under headings (1) to (5) below in this Remuneration Report includes remuneration disclosures that are required under Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures. These disclosures have been transferred from the financial report and have been audited. The disclosures in (6) and (7) below in this Remuneration Report are additional disclosures required by the Corporations Act 2001 and the Corporations Regulations 2001 which have not been audited.
(1) Remuneration Policy
The Board determines the remuneration structure of all Directors and Company Executives (being a company secretary or senior manager) ( Key Management Personnel ) having regard to the Consolidated Entity’s nature, scale and scope of operations and other relevant factors, including the frequency of Board meetings, length of service, particular experience and qualifications, market practice (including available data concerning remuneration paid by other listed companies in particular companies of comparable size and nature), the duties and accountability of Key Management Personnel and the objective of maintaining a balanced Board which has appropriate expertise and experience, at a reasonable cost to the Company.
Fixed Cash Short Term Employment Benefits: The Key Management Personnel of the Company are paid a fixed amount per annum plus applicable employer superannuation contributions. The Non-Executive Directors of the Company are paid a maximum aggregate base remuneration of $175,000 per annum inclusive of employer superannuation contributions where applicable, to be divided as the Board determines appropriate.
The current base level of Directors’ salaries/fees being received by the Board is as follows:
| Director | Office Held | Gross salary/fees and |
|---|---|---|
| employer superannuationper annum | ||
| John Stephenson | Chairman | $54,500 |
| H. Shanker Madan | Managing Director | $299,750 |
| Farooq Khan | Executive Director | $228,900 |
| Victor Ho | Executive Director and Company Secretary | $81,750 |
| William Johnson | Executive Director | $43,600 |
| Malcolm Richmond | Non-Executive Director | $32,700 |
Special Exertions and Reimbursements: Pursuant to the Company’s Constitution, each Director is also entitled to receive:
-
(1) Payment for the performance of extra services or the undertaking of any executive or other work for the Company beyond his or her general duties.
-
(2) Payment for travelling and other expenses properly incurred by a Director in attending meetings of the Company or the Board or in connection with the Company’s business.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Performance Related Benefits: The Company does not presently provide incentive/performance based benefits related to the Company’s performance to Key Management Personnel, including payment of cash bonuses. The current remuneration of Key Management Personnel is fixed, is not dependent on the satisfaction of a performance condition and is unrelated to the Company’s performance.
Service Agreements: The Company does not presently have formal service agreements or employment contracts with any Key Management Personnel.
Financial Performance of Company: There is no relationship between the Company’s current remuneration policy and the Company’s performance.
Equity Based Benefits: A total of 8,900,000 Directors’ and 283,000 employees’ options were issued during the year[15] . Shareholder approvals were obtained for the issue of options to Directors as required under the Corporations Act 2001 and under the ASX Listing Rules.
The reasons for the grant of these options to Directors and employees are as follows:
-
The options issue was designed to act as an incentive for the recipient Directors and employees to strive to achieve the Company’s goals with the aim of enhancing shareholder value.
-
The options provide an equity holding opportunity for each recipient Director and employee which is linked to the Company’s share price performance.
-
Based on the option exercise price and the rate at which the options vest, the exercise of the options by the Directors and employees is potentially only likely to occur if there is sustained upward movement in the Company’s share price.
-
The number of options issued to the Directors and employees have been determined having regard to the level of Directors and employees’ salaries/fees being paid and is a cash free, effective and efficient way of providing an appropriate level of remuneration as well as providing ongoing equity based incentives for the Directors and employees to remain with the Company with a view to improving the future growth of the Company.
-
As a relatively junior exploration company with much of its available funds dedicated or committed to its resource projects (and also in seeking opportunities in relation to the same) and in financing its day to day working capital requirements, the Company is not always in a position to maintain competitive cash salary ranges for its Directors and employees within the industry in which it operates.
Options granted under the plan carry no dividend or voting rights.
These Directors’ and employees’ options will lapse immediately upon the occurrence of any of the circumstances described below:
| Where options are vested and therefore able to be exercised |
Where options are not vested (and therefore unable to be exercised) |
|---|---|
| (a) Upon their expiry date (b) Upon determination by the Board that the Director/Employee has acted fraudulently, dishonestly or in breach of his obligations to the Company (c) Upon the Director/Employee ceasing to be a director/employee of the Company (for whatever reason including by retrenchment, redundancy or retirement) and has not exercised the option within thirty days following that event (unless a longer period is otherwise determined by the Board) (d) 6 months after the death, permanent illness or permanent physical or mental incapacity of a Director/Employee (unless a longer period is otherwise determined bythe Board) |
(a) Upon their expiry date (b) Upon determination by the Board that the Director/Employee has acted fraudulently, dishonestly or in breach of his obligations to the Company (c) Upon the Director/Employee ceasing to be a director/employee of the Company (for whatever reason including by retrenchment, redundancy or retirement) (d) Upon the death, permanent illness or permanent physical or mental incapacity of a Director/Employee |

There were no shares issued as a result of the exercise of any Directors’ or Employees options during the year (2006: nil).
The fair value of directors’ and employees’ options are expensed, from their date of grant, over their vesting period; fair values are determined as at date of grant using a binomial tree options valuation model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the underlying share price as at date of grant, the expected price volatility of the underlying shares and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.
The cost of all directors’ and employees options assessed at fair value as at date of grant is $4,853,292 in total; the value in the above table reflects the fair value of options which the Company is required to expense from their date of grant to the balance date, on the basis that the fair value cost at date of grant is apportioned over the vesting period applicable to each option.

STRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED A.B.N. 94 088 488 724
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2007
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the consolidated entity in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
The financial report includes separate financial statements for Strike Resources Limited ( SRK ) as an individual parent entity (the Company ) and the consolidated entity consisting of Strike Resources Limited, its subsidiaries and its interest in associate entities. Strike Resources Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
These financial statements were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on 21 September 2007.
Basis of Preparation
The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The going concern of the consolidated entity is dependant upon it maintaining sufficient funds for its operations and commitments. The directors continue to monitor the ongoing funding requirements of the consolidated entity. The directors are confident that sufficient funding can be secured if required to enable the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern and as such are of the opinion that the financial report has been appropriately prepared on a going concern basis.
Statement of Compliance
The financial report (comprising the financial statements and notes thereto) is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB), Urgent Issues Group Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001. Australian Accounting Standards include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the consolidated financial statements and notes of SRK comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
The Company’s financial statements and notes also complies with the IFRS except that it has elected to apply the relief provided to parent entities in respect to certain disclosure requirements relating to AASB 132: Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation , and AASB 139: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement .
Basis of measurement
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified by the revaluation of financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value basis of accounting through profit or loss has been applied.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with AIFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Consolidated Entity’s accounting policies. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are:
-
Carrying value of Mineral Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure;
-
Fair value of unlisted financial assets and Director/Employee Options;
-
Impairment of assets
1.1. Principles of Consolidation
A controlled entity is any entity the Company has the power to control the financial and operating policies of so as to obtain benefits from its activities. A list of controlled entities is contained in note 13 to the financial statements. All controlled entities have a June financial year-end. All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated entity, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the Company.
1.2. Investments in Associates
Investments in associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method. Under this method, the consolidated entity’s share of the postacquisition profits or losses of associates is recognised in the consolidated income statement, and its share of postacquisition movements in reserves is recognised in consolidated reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the cost of the investment. Associates are those entities over which the consolidated entity exercises significant influence, but not control. A list of associates is contained in note 14 to the financial statements. All controlled entities have a June financial year-end.
1.3. Mineral Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated (i.e. capitalised) in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
Under AASB 6 “Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources”, if facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of any recognised exploration and evaluation assets may be impaired, the Company must perform impairment tests on those assets and measure any impairment in accordance with AASB 136 “Impairment of Assets”. Any impairment loss is to be recognised as an expense. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
1.4. Segment reporting
A business segment is a group of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different to those of other business segments. A geographical segment is engaged in providing products or services within a particular economic environment and is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of segments operating in other economic environments. The consolidated entity’s segment reporting is contained in note 22 of the notes to the financial statements.

STRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED A.B.N. 94 088 488 724
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2007
1.5. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the consolidated entity and the revenue can be reliably measured. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax ( GST ). The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
-
(a) Sale of Goods and Disposal of Assets Revenue from the sale of goods and disposal of other assets is recognised when the consolidated entity has passed control of the goods or other assets to the buyer.
-
(b) Contributions of Assets Revenue arising from the contribution of assets is recognised when the consolidated entity gains control of the asset or the right to receive the contribution.
(c) Interest Revenue Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.
- (d) Dividend Revenue
Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a dividend has been established. The consolidated entity brings dividend revenue to account on the applicable ex-dividend entitlement date.
- (e) Other Revenues Other revenues are recognised on a receipts basis.
1.6. Foreign Currency Transaction and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each entity within the consolidated entity is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.
Transaction and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. Exchange differences arising on the translation of nonmonetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the income statement.
Group companies
The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group’s presentation currency are translated as follows:
-
(a) assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;
-
(b) income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and
-
(c) retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the consolidated entity’s foreign currency translation reserve in the balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which the operation is disposed.
1.7. Income Tax
The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the notional income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses (if applicable).
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The amount of deferred tax assets benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future, is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the consolidated entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.
1.8. 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 Tax Office. 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 balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of

STRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED A.B.N. 94 088 488 724
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2007
investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
1.9. Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Employer superannuation contributions are made by the consolidated entity in accordance with statutory obligations and are charged as an expense when incurred.
1.10. Director/Employee Options
The fair value of options granted by the Company to directors and employees is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the directors/employees become unconditionally entitled to the options. The fair value at grant date is determined using the binomial tree options valuation model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting criteria, the unlisted nature of the option, the share price at grant date and the expected price volatility of the underlying shares in the Company, and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital.
1.11. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts (if any) are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.
1.12. Receivables
Trade receivables and other receivables are recorded at amounts due less any provision for doubtful debts. An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off when considered non-recoverable.
1.13. Investments and Other Financial Assets
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss - A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term or if so designated by management and within the requirements of AASB 139: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments . Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of these assets are included in the income statement in the period in which they arise.
Loans and receivables - Loans and receivables are nonderivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are
stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Held-to-maturity investments - These investments have fixed maturities, and it is the consolidated entity’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. Any held-to-maturity investments held by the consolidated entity are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Available-for-sale financial assets - Available-for-sale financial assets include any financial assets not included in the above categories. Available-for-sale financial assets are reflected at fair value. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are taken directly to equity.
Financial liabilities - Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation.
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
At each reporting date, the consolidated entity assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-forsale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
1.14. Fair Value Estimation
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the consolidated entity is the current bid price; the appropriate quoted market price for financial liabilities is the current ask price.
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques. The consolidated entity may use a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance date. Other techniques, such as estimated discounted cash flows, are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial instruments.
The nominal value less estimated credit adjustments of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the consolidated entity for similar financial instruments.
1.15. Property, Plant and Equipment
All property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will
FULL YEAR REPORT | 31
30 JUNE 2007
STRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED A.B.N. 94 088 488 724
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2007
be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present value in determining recoverable amount. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Consolidated Entity and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
| Class of Fixed Asset | Depreciation Rate |
Depreciation Method |
|---|---|---|
| Plant and Equipment | 15-40% | Diminishing Value |
| Leasehold Improvements | 15% | Diminishing Value |
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the income statement.
account amounts unpaid on ordinary shares and any reduction in earnings per share that will probably arise from the exercise of options outstanding during the financial period.
1.20. Research and Development Costs
Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably. Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.
1.21. Discontinued Operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the Consolidated Entity’s business that represents a separate major line of business that has been disposed of or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria ti be classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative income statement is restates as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.
1.16. Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the consolidated entity reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement. Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the consolidated entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs.
1.17. Payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
1.18. Issued Capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition of a business, are included in the cost of the acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.
1.19. Earnings Per Share
Basic Earnings per share is determined by dividing the operating result after income tax by the weighted average number of ordinary shares on issue during the financial period.
Diluted Earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share by taking into

Alara Uranium Limited: On 18 May 2007, the Company completed the sale of its uranium tenement interests in Peru, the Northern Territory and Western Australia held in the subsidiary companies Strike Uranium Peru Pty Ltd and Strike Uranium Pty Ltd to Alara Uranium Limited (Alara) (ASX Code: AUQ) in consideration for 28.75 million Alara shares.

Apurimac Ferrum S.A.: Apurimac Ferrum S.A. (AF) became an associate entity on 23 February 2007 when Strike increased its direct and indirect shareholding interest in AF to beyond 20%; This occurred upon Strike gaining a 70% interest in Iron Associates Corporation (IAC) on 23 February 2007 under the MAPSA Agreement (as IAC had a 27.6% direct shareholding interest in AF under the AF Agreement as at this date ). After such investment in IAC, Strike held a 1.62% direct shareholding interest and a 19.32% indirect shareholder interest in AF (via IAC), being a total interest of 20.94%.

14. INVESTMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR USING THE EQUITY METHOD (continued)
AF was incorporated in Peru on 13 September 2004 and holds the mineral concessions comprising the Apurimac and Cuzco Projects. By the AF Agreement and the MAPSA Agreement, the Company has secured the right to earn a 68.15% (or greater) direct/indirect interest in the Apurimac Project or the Cuzco Project or both (at the Company’s election).
The AF Agreement refers to an agreement dated 2 July 2006 between Strike and Peruvian companies, AF, Minera los Andes y el Pacífico S.A. (MAPSA) and D&C Pesca S.A.C. (D&C) (and a more formal shareholders’ agreement executed on 10 November 2006) pursuant to which Strike has secured the right to earn a 51% (or greater) interest in the Apurimac Project or the Cuzco Project or both (at Strike’s election) through a progressive US$6.5 million investment in AF (which holds title to such projects) and the exercise of options to acquire AF shares from D&C and MAPSA (at a total cost of US$34.5 million), within a 5 year period. After such investment and acquisition, Strike will hold a direct 51% shareholding in AF with D&C and MAPSA each holding a 24.5% interest in AF.
During the financial year, Strike contributed US$2.70 million into AF, of which US$0.75 million has been capitalised into fully paid shares in AF, giving Strike a 1.622% shareholding interest in AF as at 30 June 2007.
On 2 August 2007, AF shareholders approved the capitalisation of the balance of Strike’s contributions, giving Strike a 5.622% direct shareholding interest in AF.
After the completion of Strike’s obligations to contribute a total of US$6.5 million into AF, Strike will have earned a direct 12.5% shareholding interest in AF. Strike’s interest will increase to 51% direct holding upon exercising options to acquire an aggregate 38.5% interest from MAPSA and D&C in consideration for US$34.5 million.
The MAPSA Agreement refers to an agreement dated 1 February 2007 between Strike, MAPSA and shareholders of MAPSA (MAPSA Shareholders), Strike has acquired a 70% interest in MAPSA’s residual interest in AF, in consideration for staged payments totalling US$10 million (being a combination of US$6 million cash and the issue of 3 million Strike shares) over 2 years and a further US$10 million when production and sales from these projects first exceeds 20 million tonnes per annum.
Therefore, upon the completion of Strike’s obligations under the AF Agreement, Strike will have gained a direct 51% shareholding interest in AF in addition to its controlling 70% interest in a further 24.5% shareholding interest in AF held by IAC.
The investment in Apurimac Ferrum includes an amount of $2,369,775 for which shares were only issued by Apurimac Ferrum subsequent to balance sheet date.

The Company also issued a further 3,300,000 unlisted directors' options with an exercise price of $2.81, a term of 5 years and a vesting period over 2 years (30% on grant, 30% on 7 March 2008 and 40% on 7 March 2009) from date of issue ($2.81, 7 March 2012 Directors’ Options) to six directors, J Stephenson, M Richmond, HS Madan, F Khan, W Johnson and V Ho.
On 1 May 2007, the Company issued 100,000 unlisted employee's options with an exercise price of $2.90, a term of 5 years and a vesting period over 2.5 years (1/3rd on 1 November 2007, 1/3rd on 1 November 2008 and 1/3rd on 1 November 2009) from date of issue ($2.90, 2 May 2012 Unlisted Employee Options).
On 5 June 2007, the Company issued 33,000 unlisted employee's options on the same terms as the $2.90, 2 May 2012 Unlisted Employee Options.
The fair value of these options are expensed over the period from their date of grant to each respective vesting date; fair value is calculated using the binomial tree options valuation model using an assumed volatility rate of 60/65% for the underlying SRK shares.

23. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
The consolidated entity's financial instruments mainly consist of deposits with banks, accounts receivable and payable, loans to related parties and shares in listed securities. The main risks arising from the consolidated entity's financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk, market price risk and liquidity risk.
(a) Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The consolidated entity's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relate primarily to investments held in interest bearing instruments. The consolidated entity has no borrowings.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2007
(b) Foreign Currency Risk
The consolidated entity is exposed to foreign currency risk on cash held by the Company and a controlled foreign entity, foreign resource project investment commitments and exploration and evaluation expenditure on foreign resource projects. The currency risk giving rise to this risk is primarily US dollars. The consolidated entity has not entered into any forward exchange contracts as at balance date and is currently fully exposed to foreign exchange risk.
(c) Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty under a financial instrument will default (in whole or in part) on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the consolidated entity. Concentrations of credit risk are minimised primarily by undertaking appropriate due diligence on potential investments, carrying out all market transactions through approved brokers, settling non-market transactions with the involvement of suitably qualified legal and accounting personnel (both internal and external), and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security (where appropriate) as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.
Market prices of listed financial instruments generally incorporate credit assessments into valuations and risk of loss is implicitly provided or in the carrying value of such assets in the financial statements as they are marked to market at balance date. The consolidated entity measures credit risk on a fair value basis. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any provision for losses, represents the consolidated entity’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of any collateral or other security obtained (if any).
(d) Net Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The carrying amount financial instruments recorded in the financial statements represent their fair value determined in accordance with the accounting policies disclosed in note 1. The aggregate fair value and carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities at balance date are:
| assets and financial liabilities at balance date are: | |

(e) Market price risk
Market price risk represents the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual instrument or its issuer or factors affecting all instruments in the market. Market risk is minimised through ensuring that investment activities are undertaken in accordance with Board established mandate limits and investment strategies.
(f) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the consolidated entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The consolidated entity has no borrowings.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2007
(b) Mineral Tenement/Concession/Mining Rights - Commitments for Expenditure Australian tenements
In order to maintain current rights of tenure to exploration tenements, the Consolidated Entity is required to outlay lease rentals and meet minimum expenditure commitments of approximately $21,000 over a 12 month period), based on Australian tenements which have been granted as at balance date. Financial commitments for subsequent periods are contingent upon future exploration and evaluation results and cannot be estimated. These obligations are subject to renegotiation upon expiry of the tenement lease or when application for a mining lease is made and have not been provided for in the accounts.
Peruvian concessions
The Consolidated Entity is required to pay annual license fees by 30 June of each year, currently charged at the rate of US$3.00 per hectare per annum.
- (c) Australian Heritage Protection Agreements
These agreements facilitate the preservation of aboriginal heritage through the protection of aboriginal sites and objects upon the grant of mining tenements in Western Australia. The Heritage Protection Agreements require the Consolidated Entity to conduct aboriginal heritage surveys prior to conducting exploration that is not low impact in nature and detail procedures to be followed if an aboriginal site is identified.
(d) Agreements with Peruvian Landowners and Community Groups
Under the AF Agreement (refer note 14), the Company has an obligation to invest US$6.5 million into AF over a 5 year period; these funds will be used principally by AF in the exploration, evaluation and development of its Apurimac and Cuzco iron ore projects in Peru. Holding a mineral concession in Peru does not grant automatic access to the surface land. Notwithstanding an easement procedure is contemplated in Peruvian law, in practice, mining companies have to negotiate and enter into private agreements with landowners/community groups in order to have access to their land for the purposes of conducting mining activities (exploration, evaluation, development and mining). With respect to a majority of AF’s concession, there are often multiple landowners/community groups who are affected by AF’s proposed mining activities. To date, approvals have been sought and obtained on drilling on a programme by programme basis.
The Company and AF have determined to approach community relations on a long term basis, recognising the importance of sustaining positive long term relationships with the local communities. To this end, AF has appointed Socios Peru, a consulting firm that assists in fostering relationships between project developers and local community groups. Socios Peru and AF’s own in-house community relations manager and staff are in current and on-going consultations with communities in AF’s project areas to secure permissions for drilling and for the long-term development of an iron ore mining operation and associated transportation and port infrastructure.
The obtaining of approvals from landowners/community groups can be complicated and time consuming. AF is currently experiencing delays in dealing with certain community groups, particularly in the northern Andahuaylas district areas (where the Opaban I and III concessions are located). Accordingly drilling in several areas within the Apurimac project has been temporarily suspended whilst these consultations are being conducted and permissions finalised. AF will have to commit funds to community groups and or landowners to secure land access agreements to develop the Apurimac and Cuzco projects. There can be no guarantees as to the obtaining of such approvals or the terms upon which approvals are obtained. At this stage, it is not possible to quantify the potential financial obligation of the Consolidated Entity or AF in this regard.
25. CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Contingent assets and liabilities exist in relation to certain resource projects of the Consolidated Entity subject to the continued development and advancement of the same.
-
(i) AF Agreement - Refer to Note 14 for details of the Company's obligations under this agreement. The Company has satisfied US$2.70 million of its US$6.5 million investment commitment due over a 5 year period which commenced on 9 November 2006.
-
(ii) MAPSA Agreement - refer to Note 14 for further details of the Company's obligations under this agreement. The Company has a contingent commitment to pay the vendor the last staged payment of US$3.5 million by February 2009 and a further US$10 million when production and sales from the Apurimac and/or Cuzco projects first exceeds 20 million tonnes per annum.
Iron Associates Corporation (IAC) has a contingent royalty obligation to the MAPSA Shareholders of between US$1.00 to $1.20 per tonne based on IAC's share of AF's sales; the royalty rate depends on whether the average FOB price of iron ore sold by AF is less than US$40 per tonne (US$1.00 royalty per tonne) or greater than US$55 per tonne (US$1.20 royalty per tonne), between such amounts, the royalty is payable on a pro-rata basis.
- (iii) West Java (Indonesia) Copper/Gold Agreement - under a cooperation agreement dated 16 March 2005 with PT Suda Miskin (Suda Miskin) in relation to the West Java Copper/Gold Project, the Consolidated Entity has a contingent commitment to pay the vendor the last staged payment of US$30,000 by April 2008. Suda Miskin is also entitled to a 19% after tax net profits royalty from production. The Consolidated Entity may withdraw from the project at any time without any further obligations after the date of withdrawal.

-
(iv) Cristoforo Agreement - On 18 May 2007, Strike Resources Peru SAC (the Peruvian subsidiary of the Company) entered into an assignment and option agreement with a Peruvian vendor in respect of three mineral concessions in the Apurimac District totalling 1,900 hectares, being the Cristoforo 14, Cristoforo 28 and Ferroso 29 concessions. The consideration payable for the assignment of mining rights to Strike Resources Peru SAC (or assignees) for a two year period is US$200,000, of which US$70,000 was paid on execution of the agreement and US$70,000 is payable after 12 months and US$60,000 is payable after 18 months. The option to acquire these three mineral concessions is for a period of two years and the exercise price is US$3 million.
-
(v) Native Title - The Consolidated Entity's tenements in Australia may be subject to native title applications in the future. At this stage it is not possible to quantify the impact (if any) that native title may have on the operations of the Consolidated Entity.
-
(vi) Government Royalties - The Consolidated Entity is liable to pay royalties on production obtained from its mineral tenements/concessions. For example, the applicable Government royalties in Peru is between 1 to 3% based on the value of production. At this stage, it is not possible to quantify the potential financial obligation of the Consolidated Entity under Government royalties.
-
(vii) Directors' Deeds - The Company .has entered into deeds of indemnity with each of its Directors indemnifying them against liability incurred in discharging their duties as directors/officers of the Consolidated Entity. At the end of the financial year, no claims have been made under any such indemnities and accordingly, it is not possible to quantify the potential financial obligation of the Consolidated Entity under these indemnities.
26. EVENTS AFTER BALANCE SHEET DATE
-
(i) During the financial year, Strike contributed US$2.70 million into AF, of which US$0.75 million had been capitalised into fully paid shares in AF, giving Strike a 1.622% direct shareholding interest in AF as at 30 June 2007.
-
On 2 August 2007, AF shareholders approved the capitalisation of the balance of Strike’s contributions, giving Strike a 5.208% direct shareholding interest in AF. Strike's current direct and indirect (via its 70% shareholding in Iron Associates Corporation) is approximately 23.83%. The Company has contributed a further US$0.4 million into AF between 1 July 2007 and the date of this report which is pending AF shareholder approval for capitalisation into AF shares.
-
(ii) On 3 September 2007, associate entity, Alara Uranium Limited (Alara) lodged a prospectus for a non-renounceable rights issue of 3 options for every 4 shares held by shareholders as at the record date (5.00pm WST on 12 September 2007) at an issue price of 1 cent per option. Each option is exercisable at a price of 25 cents, at any time on or before 30 June 2009. Strike intends to take up its maximum entitlement under this options issue of 21,562,500 options at a cost of $215,625.
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since the end of the financial year that significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the consolidated entity, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the consolidated entity in future financial years.
27. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
A total of 8,900,000 Directors’ and 283,000 employees’ options were issued during the year (Refer to Note 20). Shareholder approvals were obtained for the issue of options to Directors as required under the Corporations Act 2001 and under the ASX Listing Rules. The reasons for the grant of these options to Directors and employees are as follows:
-
(i) The options issue was designed to act as an incentive for the recipient Directors and employees to strive to achieve the Company’s goals with the aim of enhancing shareholder value.
-
(ii) The options provide an equity holding opportunity for each recipient Director and employee which is linked to the Company’s share price performance.
-
(iii) Based on the option exercise price and the rate at which the options vest, the exercise of the options by the Directors and employees is potentially only likely to occur if there is sustained upward movement in the Company’s share price.
-
(iv) The number of options issued to the Directors and employees have been determined having regard to the level of Directors and employees’ salaries/fees being paid and is a cash free, effective and efficient way of providing an appropriate level of remuneration as well as providing ongoing equity based incentives for the Directors and employees to remain with the Company with a view to improving the future growth of the Company.
-
(v) As a relatively junior exploration company with much of its available funds dedicated or committed to its resource projects (and also in seeking opportunities in relation to the same) and in financing its day to day working capital requirements, the Company is not always in a position to maintain competitive cash salary ranges for its Directors and employees within the industry in which it operates.
Options granted under the plan carry no dividend or voting rights.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of share options outstanding at the end of the period was 4.53 years.
No options expired during the periods covered by the above tables. There were no shares issued as a result of the exercise of any Directors’ or Employees options during the year (2006: nil).
The fair value of directors’ and employees' options are expensed, from their date of grant, over their vesting period; fair values are determined as at date of grant using a binomial tree options valuation model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the underlying share price as at date of grant, the expected price volatility of the underlying shares and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. The cost of all directors’ and employees options assessed at fair value as at date of grant is $4,853,292 in total; the value in the above table reflects the fair value of options which the Company is required to expense from their date of grant to the balance date, on the basis that the fair value cost at date of grant is apportioned over the vesting period applicable to each option.
The model inputs for assessing the fair value of options granted during the year are as follows:
-
(a) options are granted for no consideration and vest as described in the table above;
-
(b) exercise price is as described in the table above;
-
(c) grant date is as described in the table above;
-
(d) expiry date is as described in the table above;
-
(e) share price is based on the last bid price on ASX as at date of grant, as described in the table below;
-
(f) expected price volatility of the Company’s shares has been assessed independently by BDO Kendalls Corporate Finance (WA) Pty Ltd, as described in the table below;
-
(g) expected dividend yield is nil;
-
(h) risk-free interest rate is based on the 5 year Commonwealth bond yield, as described in the table below.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF STRIKE RESOURCES LIMITED
Report on the Financial Report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Strike Resources Limited, which comprises the balance sheet as at 30 June 2007, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes 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.
As permitted by the Corporations Regulations 2001, the Company has disclosed the information about the remuneration of directors and executives (“remuneration disclosures”), required by Australian Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures, under the heading “Remuneration report” of the Directors’ report and not the financial report. We have audited these remuneration disclosures.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report and the AASB 124 remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ Report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 . This responsibility includes designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. In note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial report of the Group, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards, but that the financial report of the Company does not comply.
The directors of the Company are also responsible for the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report.
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. These Auditing 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. Our responsibility is also to express an opinion that the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report comply with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 124.

54
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ report 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 entity’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 and the remuneration disclosures contained in the Directors’ 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 Strike Resources Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(i) giving a true and fair view of the company’s and consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2007 and of their performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
-
(b) the financial report of the Group also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in note 1.
-
(c) the remuneration disclosures required by paragraphs Aus 25.4 to Aus 25.7.2 of Australian Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures that are contained in the Remuneration report in the Directors’ report comply with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures.
