Overall Review
During the year, the Company was active in its exploration efforts and continued to advance its vanadium project at Unaly Hill its multi-element Kooline project and gold exploration at Victory Bore. The completion of an RC drilling programme and an advanced metallurgical testwork programme on the Unaly Hill mineralisation both endeavours produced extremely encouraging results. At the Kooline project the geochemical and geophysical data compilation and analysis has concluded that the area is a likely setting for an Intra Cratonic Magma Copper Gold system with copper and gold potential in addition to the known high-grade lead-silver mineralisation historically mined.
Vanadium
Unaly Hill and Victory Bore (E57/1068 and E57/1036), Western Australia –Vanadium Projects
The licence areas are located approximately 500km north of Perth Sandstone in the East Murchison Mineral field of Western Australia and form a 25km long contiguous tenement holding along strike of the Youanmi Shear zone.

Geological Setting.
The Unaly Hill and Victory Bore Vanadium project licence areas, E57/1068 and E57/1036 lie within the Atley Igneous Complex located approximately 48 km south of Sandstone in the East Murchison Mineral field of Western Australia. The Atley Intrusion is a layered gabbroic body is hosted within greenstones that lie within a major NNE trending shear zone that separates the Sandstone greenstone belt to the northeast and the Youanmi belt to the southwest. The Atley complex has a maximum thickness of 4.5km with exposures over a strike length of 17km and the iron-vanadium-titanium mineralisation is situated within cyclical cumulous layers within the intrusive complex and is generally weathered to a depth of 10-40m with fresh gabbro passing through 5m of saprorock.
The greenstones have documented gold mineralisation and provide an additional focus for current exploration activities.
Exploration Activity
During the year the Company completed a drilling programme at Unaly Hill designed to test additional magnetic anomalies identified along strike of the Company's current established JORC Inferred resource of 86Mt @ 0.42% V2O5. (@ 0.3% Cut-off). A total of 10 RC drill holes ranging in downhole depth from 100m to 200m were completed along six traverses for an aggregate of 1,258m. The widely spaced drilling was based on detailed 2D forward modelling of high-resolution airborne magnetic data carried out by Southern Geoscience Consultants Pty Ltd (SGC). And covered an additional 4km of the magnetic anomaly delineating the vandiferous–magnetite mineralisation.
All the drill holes intersected a number of vanadiferous magnetite bands of varying down-hole width occurring as wide adjacent parallel bands, dipping steeply easterly on some sections with relatively shallow levels of weathered/oxidized cover. Significant results included:
- Individual composite intersections of grades up to 0.90% V2O5
- 15 intersections greater than 0.50% V2O5 and wider than 4 metres.
- Significant intersection widths of:
40m @ 0.44% V2O5 from 82m in UHRC008 Including 24m @ 0.51% V2O5
34m @ 0.53% V2O5 from 79m in UHRC009 including 16m @ 0.69% V2O5
36m @ 0.43% V2O5 from 64m in UHR007 including 14m @ 0.58% V2O5
The drilling shows that, in accordance with the aeromagnetic data, the mineralisation at Unaly Hill remains open for a considerable distance along strike from the previous drilling.
Metallurgical Testwork
During the year the Company completed a comprehensive metallurgical testwork programme on the Unaly vandiferous magnetite core obtained from diamond drill hole UHDM001. The programme, developed and supervised by METS Engineering Group based in Perth, Western Australia focused on the salt roasting process, a commonly used process for the processing of vanadiferous titanomagnetites that recovers vanadium as a product from the ore. The testwork looked at the effects of grind size on mineral liberation and magnetic separation and addressed the following parameters:
- Comminution and physical characterisation
- Mineralogy
- Magnetic beneficiation
- Salt roasting
The advanced test work programme supervised by METS was successful in showing consistent vanadium grades and recoveries across the three mineralised zones tested. A 192% to 367% vanadium upgrade with V2O5 concentrate grades up to 1.43% were achieved with lower grade ore beneficiating to similar grades as the high-grade zones with good salt roast vanadium recoveries.
SurefIre's Vanadium Resources
The acquisition of the Victory Bore vanadium project significantly increased the Company's vanadium resource base and exploration potential. In conjunction with the Company's Unaly Hill vanadium project the Company with have a combined Inferred Mineral Resource of 237 Mt grading~0.42- 44% V2O5 with a contained V2O5 content of 102,900 tonnes making it one of the largest vanadium resource holders in Australia.
The majority of the magnetic anomalies within both licence areas remain untested by drilling the potential exists therefore for not only an increased resource tonnage but for larger zones of higher-grade vanadium mineralisation.
The Company has previously established a substantial JORC vanadium resource at Unaly Hill (Table 1) from drilling 3 kilometres of magnetic anomaly corresponding with the cumulous magnetite layers within the intrusive. The acquisition of the Victory Bore project during the year has substantially added to the Company's vanadium resource base (Table 2) in addition to increasing its potential for gold mineralisation. The project areas currently have a combined JORC compliant Inferred Mineral Resource of 237 Mt @ 0.43% V2O5, making Surefire a significant vanadium resource holder in Australia.

Gold
Victory Bore E57/1036
A review of historic exploration data has identified gold mineralisation within the Company's tenements. Historic RAB and MMI sampling delineated large areas of anomalous gold values on both the Victory Bore and Unaly Hill tenements. Follow up RC drilling on some targets provided some significant gold drill intersections(detailed in the Company's June 2019 Quarterly Activities Report). The majority of the anomalous zones and gold targets remain untested.
Geology
The project areas contains greenstones that host the Atley Igneous Complex and lie within a major NNE trending shear zone that separates the Sandstone greenstone belt to the northeast from the Youanmi belt to the southwest.


Figure 2: Project areas in relation to Sandstone and Youanmi Gold Centres
In the 1990s gold exploration on these greenstones together with several other greenstone segments within the Youanmi Shear Zone was stimulated by the known occurrence of the >1Moz gold deposit at the Youanmi mine to the SW and the Sandstone gold mining area to the North (see Figure 2).
Between 1995-1997, Battle Mountain Gold (BMG) undertook a programme of vertical Rotary Air Blast (RAB) holes down to bedrock that traversed parts of both the Victory Bore and Unaly Hill licence areas, the majority collared within the Victory Bore licence. This programme defined a large elongate gold anomaly within Victory Bore some 4km long and up to 750m wide that is oriented NNE. BMG followed up the more significant gold anomalies from the RAB drilling with a limited number of RC holes that intersected ore-grade gold mineralisation at shallow depths
The Company's maiden RC drill programme is currently underway at Victory Bore and is designed to test the known mineralised horizon and a 3.5 km long x 800m wide zone of structural complexity along an otherwise sub-parallel linear package of units with high and low magnetic response (Figure 3)
The target area contains a number of previously reported high-grade gold intercepts from the historic RC drilling. The structurally complex zone is characterised by a "blow-out" in sub-linear magnetic units which correspond with a series of NE-SW trending cross cutting sinistral faults. Other structures present are NW-SE trending faults and shears with strike inflexions with potential dilation zones.
These dilation zones, particularly where they intersect cross cutting structures, provide excellent targets for potential fluid pathways and gold mineralisation.


Figure 3: Current Drill and Exploration Targets Victory Bore
Copper/Gold/Lead/ Silver
Kooline E08/2372 and E08/2956
The Kooline Project is centred 55 kilometres south of the Paulsen's goldmine and 190 kilometres WNW of Paraburdoo within the Ashburton province of Western Australia. The project area tenements consist of granted Exploration Licences, E08/2373 and E 08/2956 . The Company's licence tenure now covers a total of 386 km², and more importantly, includes 48km of contiguously striking licences that link numerous clusters of high-grade historic artisanal Lead-Silver-workings and elevated gold-copper geochemical anomalies.. The Kooline Project is situated in a relatively underexplored region in Western Australia where numerous historic gold, and particularly lead/silver workings are evident. The tenements strike along a moderately defined magnetic and gravity anomaly, indicating the potential presence of moderately deep igneous intrusions. Such intrusions are an important heat source driving the circulation of hydrothermal fluids enriched in various base and precious metals.
Geophysical and Geochemical Data Compilation
During the year, activity on the project centred on a comprehensive review of the geochemical data undertaken by geological consultants CSA Global and the completion of the geophysical data compilation and processing by Southern Geoscience.
CSA's analysis of the geochemical data concluded that the anomalous geochemical results determined in their review are indicative of an Intra Cratonic Magma Copper Gold (IMCG) mineralisation system where a major regional structure (the Baring Downs Suture) has channelled mineralised fluid into the project area. CSA established four exploration target areas in the northern section of the licence (Figure 3) that enclose, or are along strike from geochemical anomalies present or adjacent to the project area.

The geophysical data now compiled provides a significantly greater understanding of the geological structure within and beneath the project area's transported cover. In particular it provides far greater detail of magnetic responses of the lithology. The new datasets will now enable the detailed structural analysis and, when combined with the geochemical data enable the development of an exploration strategy to more accurately test the target areas for their copper/gold potential.
Rock Chip Sampling
The main cluster of over thirty mines at Kooline has seen rock-chip samples containing galena, cerussite and silver returning some extremely high grades. A number of rock chip samples were collected from the main areas and the assay results announced from these samples confirm the highgrade nature of the mineralisation with results up to 79% Pb and 232g/t Ag. The significant sample results are shown in Table 3 below:

| KRK013 | 7.28 | 23 | 145 | 0.04 | Kooline Griffiths |
The Kooline area has not been effectively explored, spatially or at depth. In addition, the historic focus has been on the high-grade Lead-Silver-Copper veins associated with the artisanal workings. There has been no coherent exploration to define the potential for large volume Lead-Silver-Copper deposits. Copper appears to have been treated as a by-product and Gold despite an historic intercept of 1m @ 3.87g/t (AK09RC04 at 25m) at the Bilrose working and minor artisanal gold workings in the area, has not been the focus of a coherent exploration programme. The compilation of all available historic geochemical data from surface sampling and drilling, clearly shows that less than half the project area has been tested and less than a quarter of the area has been tested effectively for all relevant minerals. Where the area has been tested, anomalous results are common.


Figure 4: Anomalous INDEX 5 scores for combined surface and drill sample dataset combined with anomalous Fortescue Metals Auger samples and high-Au in Au-only drilling (background image from CSA 2018).
For the Kooline Project, CSA proposed the following metric: INDEX_5 = Log Pb + Log Au + Log Cu + Log As + Log Sb, which they consider to be a very good way to highlight mineralisation. As shown in Figure 4 two clear trends are observed.
• Area 1, hosts highly anomalous results even with the broad spaced data and the area is also in close proximity to the potentially major mineralised fluid pathway in the Baring Downs Suture.
• Area 2 hosts the historic Kooline Pb-Ag-Cu workings plus additional anomalies, including gold either along strike or sub-parallel to the main mineralised trends.
The mineral system that could be present across the Kooline tenements presents numerous opportunities for further exploration.

NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation
The financial report is a general-purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 for Surefire Resources NL and its controlled entities.
The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue on 30 September 2019.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation of the financial report.
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
Reporting Basis and Conventions
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.
Going Concern
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on securing additional capital raising activities to continue its operational and exploration activities.
Should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the consolidated financial statements and that the financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.
Cash and cash equivalents on hand as at the date of this report was approximately $8,646.
Principles of Consolidation
(i) Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group 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 to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of financial position respectively.
(ii) Changes in ownership interests
The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within equity attributable to owners of Surefire Resources NL.
When the Group ceases to have control, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, jointly controlled entity or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
If the ownership interest in a jointly controlled entity or associate is reduced but joint control or significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate.

NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Coninued)
Accounting Policies
(a) Interest Income
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account interest rates applicable to the financial asset. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
(b) Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Group's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by non-casual 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. There is no liability for annual or long service leave entitlements.
(c) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
All exploration and evaluation expenditure is expensed to Statement of Financial Performance as incurred. The effect of this is to increase the loss incurred from continuing operations as disclosed in the Statement of Financial Performance and to decrease the carrying values of total assets in the Statement of Financial Position. That the carrying value of mineral assets, as a result of the operation of this policy, may be zero does not necessarily reflect the Board's view as to the market value of that asset.
(d) Acquisition of Assets
The cost method is used for all acquisitions of assets regardless of whether shares or other assets are acquired. Cost is determined as the fair value of assets given up at the date of acquisition plus costs incidental to the acquisition.
(e) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
(f) Income Tax
The income tax expense for the year comprises current income tax expense and deferred tax expense.
Current income tax expense charged to the Statement of Financial Performance is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities and assets are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to or recovered from the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses, if any in fact are brought to account.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised, or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. No deferred tax is recognised for the carried forward tax losses as the Group considers there will be no taxable profit available to offset the brought forward tax losses in the foreseeable future.

NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(g) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
(h) Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the Group 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 Statement of Financial Performance. This policy has no application where paragraph (c) (Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure) applies.
(i) Earnings per Share
- (i) Basic Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the loss from continuing operations after related income tax expense by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial period.
- (ii) Diluted Earnings per Share Options that are considered to be dilutive are taken into consideration when calculating the diluted earnings per share.
(j) Property, plant and equipment
Each class of plant, equipment and motor vehicles is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Plant, equipment and motor vehicles are measured on the cost basis.
The carrying amounts of plant, equipment and motor vehicles are 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 be received from the asset's employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all plant, equipment and motor vehicles are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset's useful life to the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The depreciation rates used for the class of plant, equipment and motor vehicle depreciable assets range between 20% and 100%.
The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each Statement of Financial Position 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 the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the Statement of Financial Performance. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.
(k) Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. The Company determines the classification of its financial instruments at initial recognition.
Financial assets
From 1 January 2018, financial assets are classified at initial recognition a (i) subsequently measured at amortised cost, (ii) fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) or (iii) fair value through profit or loss. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designed upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognised in the Income Statement within finance costs. Transaction costs arising on initial recognition are expensed in the Income Statement.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
The financial asset is held for both collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial asset. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other comprehensive income and accumulated in the fair value reserve, except for the recognition of impairment, interest income and foreign exchange difference which are recognised directly in profit or loss. Interest income is calculated using the effective interest rate method.

NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial asset at amortised costs are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that re not quoted in an active market.
Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gain and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.
The Company's financial assets at amortised cost include 'trade and other receivables' and "cash and equivalents' in the Balance Sheet.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified at initial recognition as (i) financial liabilities at fair value through profit or, (ii) loans and borrowings, (iii) payables or (iv) derivatives designated as hedging instruments, as appropriate. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net directly attributable transaction costs. The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdraft. These are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gain and losses are recognised in the Income Statement when the liabilities are derecognised. Amortisation is included as finance costs in the Income Statement.
Fair Value
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. The expression "fair value" – and derivatives thereof – wherever used in this report bears the meaning ascribed to that expression by the Australian Accounting Standards Board.
Impairment of financial assets
The entity recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the entity's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain.
Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months.
Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset's lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.
For financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is recognised within other comprehensive income. In all other cases, the loss allowance is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial Guarantees
Where material, financial guarantees issued, which require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due, are recognised as a financial liability at fair value on initial recognition.
The guarantee is subsequently measured at the higher of the best estimate of the obligation and the amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortisation in accordance with AASB 118: Revenue. Where the entity gives guarantees in exchange for a fee, revenue is recognised under AASB 118.
The fair value of financial guarantee contracts has been assessed using a probability weighted discounted cash flow approach. The probability has been based on:
the likelihood of the guaranteed party defaulting in a year period;
- the proportion of the exposure that is not expected to be recovered due to the guaranteed party defaulting; and
- the maximum loss exposed if the guaranteed party were to default.
De-recognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
(l) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result, and that outflow can be reliably measured.

NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(m) Leases
Lease payments for operating leases (where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor) are charged as an expense in the periods in which they are incurred.
Lease incentives under operating leases, if any, are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term.
(n) Contributed Equity
Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Group. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.
(o) Share-based Payments and Value Attribution to Equity Remuneration/Benefits
Share-based compensation benefits provided to directors from time to time are approved in general meeting by members. Share-based benefits provided to non-directors are approved by the Board of Directors and form part of that employee's remuneration package.
The Australian Accounting Standards specifies that a valuation technique must be applied in determining the fair value of employees' or directors' stock options as at their grant date. No particular model is specified.
In respect of share options granted to company officers, the (theoretical) fair value is recognised upon vesting as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The theoretical fair value of the option is calculated at the date of grant taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted, the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, an industry accepted method of valuing equity instruments. Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share-based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital.
In respect of share options granted to non-company officers, the (theoretical) fair value is recognised upon vesting as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The theoretical fair value of the option is calculated at the date of grant taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted, the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, an industry accepted method of valuing equity instruments. Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share-based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital.
(p) Comparative Figures
When required by the Australian Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial period.
(q) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner that is consistent with the internal reporting to the chief operating decision makers which have been identified by the company as the Board of Directors.
(r) Critical Accounting Estimates, Assumptions, and Judgements
The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data obtained both externally and from within the Group.
Taxation
Balances disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto related to taxation are based on best estimates by directors. These estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the Group as they pertain to current income tax legislation and the directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current tax position represents the directors' best estimate pending an assessment being received from the Australian Taxation Office.
Environmental Issues
Balances disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental legislation and the directors understanding thereof. At the current stage of the Group's development and its current environmental impact, the directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate.
Share-based payments
Share-based payment transactions made from time to time, in the form of options to acquire ordinary shares, are ascribed a fair value using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. This model uses assumptions and estimates as inputs.

NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(s) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods
Adoption of new and revised accounting standards
The Company has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. It has been determined by the Company that, there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised standards and interpretations on its business and therefore no change is necessary to Company accounting policies including:
AASB 9 Financial Instruments
AASB 9 Financial Instruments introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets and is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2018.
The Company has applied AASB 9 using the modified retrospective approach because the measurement of financial assets under AASB9 are consistent to the Company's current practice.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.
The Company does not currently have any contracts with customers in place.
The Company does not consider there to be any material impact from the adoption of AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
AASB 16 Leases
The standard replaces AASB 117 'Leases" and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases, and require, subject to certain exemptions, the recognition of a 'right-of-use asset' and a corresponding lease liability, and the subsequent depreciation of the 'right-of-use' asset. For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases.
The Company is currently not party to any material operating or finance lease arrangements.
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 and as such the Company will adopt this standard from 1 July 2019. Whilst at this time the Company does not consider there to be any material impact from the adoption of AASB 16 Leases, it will make an assessment of potential effects over the next 12 month period
NOTE 2 OPERATING SEGMENTS

NOTE 14 TENEMENT EXPENDITURES CONDITIONS AND OTHER COMMITTMENTS
The Group has certain obligations to perform minimum exploration work on the tenements in which it has an interest. These obligations may in some circumstances, be varied or deferred. Tenement rentals and minimum expenditure obligations which may be varied or deferred on application are expected to be met in the normal course of business.
The minimum statutory expenditure commitments required to be spent on the granted tenements for the next twelve months amounts to $193,000.
NOTE 15 TENEMENT ACCESS
Native Title and Freehold
All or some of the tenements in which the Group has an interest are or may be affected by native title.
The Group is not in a position to assess the likely effect of any native title impacting the Group.
The existence of native title and heritage issues represent, as a general proposition, a serious threat to explorers and miners, not only in terms of delaying the grant of tenements and the progression of exploration development and mining operations, but also in terms of costs arising consequent upon dealing with aboriginal interest groups, claims for native title and the like.
As a general proposition, a tenement holder must obtain the consent of the owner of freehold before conducting operations on the freehold land. Unless it already has secured such rights, there can be no assurance that the Group will secure rights to access those portions (if any) of the Tenements encroaching freehold land but, importantly, native title is extinguished by the grant of freehold so if and whenever the Tenements encroach freehold the Group is in the position of not having to abide by the Native Title Act in respect of the area of encroachment albeit aboriginal heritage matters still be of concern.

NOTE 16 EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO REPORTING DATE
Subsequent to the end of the financial reporting period, Surefire has announced a capital raising whereby that it has received firm commitments from professional and sophisticated investors to raise up to $1.15 million (Placement), before costs.
The Placement will result in the issue of up to 125,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (Shares) at $0.0092 each and will be placed within the Company's existing Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity of up to 74,684,636 Shares and pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A placement capacity of 50,315,364 Shares. The issue price represents a discount of 15.26% to the 15-day VWAP. The Shares, when listed, will rank pari-passu with existing SRN shares quoted on the ASX. It is expected that the receipt of funds will be completed on or around 2 October 2019 and Shares issued immediately thereafter.
CPS Capital Group Pty Ltd (AFSL 294848) (CPS) have been appointed to act as Lead Manager and Broker to the Placement and to provide corporate advisory services on a non-exclusive basis. CPS will be paid a management fee of 2% (plus GST) for managing the placement, a placement fee of 4% (plus GST) for funds raised via the Placement and will be issued up to 55,000,000 options exercisable at $0.018 each, having an expiry date which is 18 months from the date of issue. The issue of the options will require shareholder approval and will not be quoted.
Other than noted above or reported to ASX there have been no matters or circumstances that have arisen since 30 June 2019 which have significantly affected or may significantly affect:
- (a) the Group's operations in future years; or
- (b) the results of those operations in future years; or
- (c) the Group's state of affairs in future years.
NOTE 17 EQUITY-SETTLED SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
On 25 April 2019, the Company issued a total of 62,500,000 fully paid ordinary shares as final payment for the acquisition of the Victory Bore tenement (see ASX Release 29 April 2019). These shares are subject to a voluntary escrow until 25 October 2019
A fair value of $750,000 based upon the share price at the time of issue has been shown as a tenement acquisition cost and expensed in full in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Performance.

|---|---|---|
| Corporate Admin Services Pty Ltd | $300,000 (2018: $322,566) | Executive managing directorial services |

| Halith Pty Ltd | $42,000 (2018: $35,182) | Non-executive directorial services |
Particulars of contractual arrangements and financial benefits provided to the key management personnel are detailed in the directors' report.
The total amount owing to both current and past directors and/or director-related parties (including GST) at 30 June 2019 was $377,123 (2018: $467,757). Of this amount, $265,093 is being disputed and subject to legal processes.

NOTE 20 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND ASSETS
The directors have disputed various invoices included in the Group's financial records which were raised by previous directors in relation to services rendered. The total amount of those charges equates to $265,093 and have been included in expenses incurred prior to 30 June 2018.
Contingent Liability on Acquisition of Victory Bore Tenement
In an Amendment to the Heads of Agreement for Sale of Tenement executed on 16 August 2018 between High Grade Metals Limited, Acacia Mining Pty Ltd, Mutual Holdings Pty Ltd and Surefire Resources NL, it was agreed (among other terms) that:
-
- Within 60 days of Surefire announcing to the ASX that it has obtained a pre-feasibility study that confirms that the subject tenement, namely Victory Bore, if developed as a mine, has an internal rate of return of not less than 20%, Surefire will pay an additional sum of $650,000; and
-
- Within 60 days of Surefire announcing to the ASX that it has made a decision to mine within the Tenement area, Surefire will pay an additional sum of $650,000.
Both of these contingencies have NOT been included as an expense in the Financial Report and are subject to the respective conditions being met in due course.
Native Title
Tenements are commonly (but not invariably) affected by native title.
The Group is not in a position to assess the likely effect of any native title impacting the Group.
The existence of native title and heritage issues represent, as a general proposition, a serious threat to explorers and miners, not only in terms of delaying the grant of tenements and the progression of exploration development and mining operations, but also in terms of costs arising consequent upon dealing with aboriginal interest groups, claims for native title and the like.
NOTE 21 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DISCLOSURE
(a) Financial Risk Management Policies
The Group's financial instruments consist of deposits with banks, receivables, financial assets and payables.
Risk management policies are approved and reviewed by the Board. The use of hedging derivative instruments is not contemplated at this stage of the Group's development.
Specific Financial Risk Exposure and Management
The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments, are interest rate and liquidity risks.
Interest Rate Risk
Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at reporting date whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments.
Liquidity Risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows, cash reserves, liquid investments, receivables and payables.
Capital Risk
The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern so that they may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.
Due to the nature of the Group's activities being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group's capital risk management is the current working capital position against the requirements of the Group to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. The Group's strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raising as required.
The working capital position of the Group at 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2018 was as follows:
| 2019 | 2018 | |
|---|---|---|
| ($) | ($) | |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 135,800 | 1,860,697 |

Independent Audit Report to the members of Surefire Resources NL
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Qualified Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Surefire Resources NL and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019, 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, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.
In our opinion, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
- (i) giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
- (ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
The Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income for the year ended 30 June 2019 includes Director fees and employee benefits expense: $386,544.
We have been unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence of the validity, accuracy and completeness of the recorded remuneration of former key management persons Mr John Wareing, Mr Victor Turco and Mr Brett Clark and their related entities for the year ended 30 June 2018. This is because certain information was unable to be procured from former key management persons of the Group and as explained in Note 20, the Directors have disputed various invoices included in the Company's financial records which were raised by outgoing Directors in relation to services rendered.
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group 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 (the code) that are relevant to our audit of the 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 the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 1 to the financial report, which describes that the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on successful mining and exploration, and further equity issues to the market. As a result, there is material uncertainty related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to 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. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Directors fees, employee benefits expenses, exploration expenses and administration expenses: $2,475,208
Refer to Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income and Note 3
Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the matter Director fees, employee benefit expenses, exploration expenses and administration expenses, collectively are a substantial figure in the financial statements of the Group, representing a significant portion of shareholder equity spent during the financial year. Given the significance of the above expenses, we Our audit work included, but was not restricted to, the following: We examined the Group's approval processes in relation to making payments to its suppliers and employees. We selected a systematic sample of expenses using
the dollar unit sampling method, and vouched each item selected to invoices and other supporting documentation.
- We requested copies of service agreements with key management personnel of the Group during the financial year.
- From those charged with governance of the Group we requested confirmations from all directors and other key management personnel of the Group during the financial year of their remuneration and any other transactions between them, their related parties and the Group.
- We reviewed Board minutes of meetings held during the financial year.
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information obtained at the date of this auditor's report is included in the annual report, but does not include the financial report and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed on the other information obtained prior to the date of this auditor's report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Directors for the Financial Report
considered that the validity and accuracy of the recorded expenditures to be a key audit matter.
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 preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial report.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Report on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 13 to 17 of the directors' report for the year ended 30 June 2019. The directors of the Surefire Resources NL 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 in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.
Qualified Opinion
In our opinion, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the Remuneration Report of Surefire Resources NL for the year ended 30 June 2019 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
The Remuneration Report includes $37,450 relating to Mr John Wareing and $94,141 relating to Mr Victor Turco for the year ended 30 June 2018 and $97,881 relating to services provided by an entity related to Mr Brett Clark during the year ended 30 June 2018.
We have been unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence of the validity, accuracy and completeness of the recorded remuneration of former key management persons Mr John Wareing, Mr Victor Turco and Mr Brett Clark and their related entities for the year ended 30 June 2018. This is because certain information was unable to be procured from former key management persons of the Group.
