REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

WA PROJECTS

LAKE GRACE PROJECT

The Lake Grace Project consists of five large tenements (E70/5081, 5082, 5085, 5095 and 5179 - refer Figure 1) in the Southwest Terrane of Western Australia, containing the Calesi Ni Prospect and Khal Ni-Co Project in the North, and the Kulin and Lake Grace Gold Projects in the South, with the latter surrounding the Griffin’s Find Gold Mine.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

The work-to-date highlights a significant prospective horizon associated with the Lake Grace Gold Project of at least 30km of strike requiring additional investigation and drilling (refer Figure 1). The tenure has recently undergone a compulsory 40% reduction, and the prospective strike remains intact. The Company is currently focusing on a section of strike in a demagnetised zone of some 3.5km in length identified by both the 1995 North geochemical programme[1] and supported by the overlapping 2005 Sabre geochemical programme[2] , in part extensions of the Columbia-GeminiApollo prospects.

The original undrilled Kulin gold discovery[3] which returned multiple high grade gold assays (twelve samples averaging 12.7 g/t Au, max 35 g/t Au) from gossanous granular quartz float is also under review to provide a coherent drill target.

(3) A19545- “Kulin Exploration Licence 70/180 Final Report Associated Gold Fields NL” dated 1986

Khal Nickel-Cobalt Project (EL70/5095)

The Khal (previously Kulin Hill) Nickel-Cobalt target is defined by a 2km long/700m wide ultramafic/mafic package, characterised by a strong magnetic signal coincident with a salt lake surface (refer Figure 2). The potential for Ni-Co sulfide mineralisation was suggested by historical drilling conducted on the edge of the sequence in 1967 and 1973, where drill core samples were observed in polished sections containing “… less than 1% of a nickel-cobalt-sulfide mineral (approximately 50% Ni, 5% Co)[4] ”, which suggests that the sequence is fertile and is a priority target for magmatic Ni-Co sulfides. Observations from the historical drilling also supported some fractionation of the ultramafic at depth; that is, towards the untested central portion of the sequence.

The Company currently intends to apply for an Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS) co-funded grant for drill testing of the Khal target, with the next round of Applications opening on the 4[th] August 2025.

Orange circles and traces indicate possible optimal drilling collar positions to test the layered intrusion from the salt lake surface, although the company is also considering drilling from the SW.

Six-year compulsory reductions on E70/5081, E70/5082, E70/5085, and E70/5095 were finalised during the half year, and a similar reduced for E70/5179 actioned post-half year end. Current residual tenure is as per depiction in Figure 1. A corresponding reduction in annual expenditure is now in place for all reduced tenure. Surrender reporting for the respective tenements plus Combined Technical Reporting has been completed.

THADUNA PROJECT (E52/3481)

Thaduna is a single block tenement in the prospective Bryah Basin in WA. The Company is reviewing the tenure for next steps in advancing the project. Technical Reporting for the tenement was completed during the half-year.

CANADIAN LITHIUM PROJECTS

Sultan hold two 100% owned lithium projects in Ontario (ON), Canada (refer Figure 7), with assays previously reported from the Ruddy Project, with low K/Rb ratios established for high proportion of pegmatites sampled, and a priority lithium target area identified within an interpreted ‘Goldilocks’ Zone for further work confirmed.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Ruddy Project

At Ruddy, the Company established a priority exploration target from the interpreted LCT Goldilocks Zone surrounding the Allison Lake Batholith which covers approximately 3.5km of east-west strike in the centre to south of the Company’s Project. After receipt of the assays, the results supported a priority zone of interest within the original LCT Goldilocks interpretation, radially distributed from the northern portion of the Allison Batholith and highlight a priority target (Refer Figures 3-6) for further assessment in the SE portion of the tenure.

Kember Project

At the Kember Project, the Company had previously advised that a desktop review highlighted a series of pegmatitic granite occurrences, noted across an area around seven km in length and typically over a kilometre in width. These will form the focus of initial exploration activities at the Kember Project. The Company had previously opted to delay reconnaissance activities at Kember after First Nation groups requested additional time to inform its members of planned activities. These negotiations have been prolonged and while nearing completion have been deferred until after the northern hemisphere winter.

The Company had filed a submission to the current round of Ontario Junior Exploration Programme (OJEP) funding for Kember activities for up to CAD$100k of funding being 50% of actual spend, which had been favourably received. Unfortunately, the Company formally withdrew from the process after confirming that access could not be confirmed in the available field season, with funds required to be spent on ground prior to 25[th] February 2025.

Field reconnaissance of Kember would ideally be combined with additional groundwork at the priority target previously defined at the Ruddy Project, which can be accessed along the way in daily helicopter flights out of Red Lake ON.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

(a) Basis of preparation

These general purpose interim financial statements for half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2024 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.

These general purpose financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2024 and any public announcements made by the Company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Sultan Resources Limited’s functional and presentation currency.

The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the policies stated below.

(b) Significant accounting judgements and key estimates

The preparation of the interim financial report requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing this interim financial report, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2024.

New and amended Accounting Standards that are effective for the current period

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. Their adoption has not had any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in these financial statements.

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

(c) Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business.

As disclosed in the financial statements, the Group incurred a loss for the half year of $283,664 and had net cash outflows from operating and investing activities of $334,886 and $231,589 respectively for the half year ended 31 December 2024. As at that date, the Group had net current assets of $279,118 including cash and cash equivalents of $336,218.

Half-Year Financial Report | 31 December 2024

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

(c) Going concern (continued)

These factors indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Group will continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

The directors believe that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial report after consideration of the following factors:

  • The Group’s ability to issue additional shares under the Corporations Act 2001 to raise further working capital; and

  • The Group has the ability to scale down its operations in order to curtail expenditure, so as to ensure that he cash available is sufficient to meet projected expenditure.

Accordingly, the Directors believe that the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial report.

The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the amounts or classification of recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary if the Group does not continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 SEGMENT INFORMATION

Operating segments are presented using the ‘management approach’, where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers (‘CODM’). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance.

On this basis, the Group’s reportable segments under AASB Operating Segments are the Group’s activities in Australia and Canada. Information regarding the Group’s reportable segments is presented below.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the Members of SULTAN RESOURCES LIMITED

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Sultan Resources Limited (the Company) which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2024, 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 half-year ended on that date, notes comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the Consolidated Entity comprising the Company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the halfyear.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Sultan Resources Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Consolidated Entity’s position as at 31 December 2024 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of Sultan Resources Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 1 of the half-year financial report, which indicates that the Consolidated Entity incurred a loss of $283,664 and had net cash outflows from operating and investing activities of $334,886 and $231,589 respectively for the half year ended 31 December 2024. As stated in Note 1(c), these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1(c), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Consolidated Entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Directors' Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of Sultan Resources Limited are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Consolidated Entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2024 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
