REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
The total loss from continuing operations for the half-year ended 31 December 2021 was $1,257,323 (2020: $1,608,663).
The Group’s activities during the six-month period are summarised in this report which unless otherwise stated, should be read as if dated 31 December 2021.
PROJECT REPORT
Surefire Resources NL (“ Surefire ”, “the Company ”) is pleased to report on its exploration activities at the Company’s 100% owned properties for the six months ending 31 December 2021.
During the half year, Surefire Resources NL advanced the Yidby Gold Project with a drilling campaign, the Perenjori Iron Project, with planning to expand the magnetite resource, interpretative work on the newly acquired Kadji high-definition aeromagnetic survey data and planning for follow-up of the high priority EM targets at Kooline Prospect.
YIDBY GOLD PROJECT (E59/2390, E59/2426, E59/2444)
The Yidby Gold Project is well located close to the Great Northern Highway, 40km southwest of Paynes Find in the Mid-West of Western Australia, and in the southern portion of the Yalgoo-Singleton Greenstone Belt, part of the mid to late-Archaean Youanmi Terrane.
The Project comprises three granted exploration licences with a total area of 114 km² and includes three prospects where significant gold mineralisation has been identified. They are associated with historical workings at Delaney Well and Cashens Find, and a Surefire’s new discovery at Yidby Road Gold Prospect.
The Project is surrounded by several significant gold deposits, including the +1.1 million-ounce Minjar Gold Project approximately 65km to the northwest, the 1 million-ounce Kirkalocka Gold Project approximately 70km to the northeast, the 2.1Moz Mount Gibson Gold Project 30km to the south (28 July 2021 ASX: CMM) and the 0.54Moz Rothsay Gold Project 30km to the west (Egan Street Resources, 12 February 2019).
Surefire initiated the next phase of drilling at the Yidby Gold Deposit (ASX announcement 30 August 2021). The drilling campaign comprised of approximately 15 holes for 2,000 m of RC drilling, designed to test a Mobile Metal Ions (MMI) soil geochemical anomalies coincident with a series of interpreted cross faults and splays off the main Yidby Cryptic Fault.
Drilling intersected wide gold mineralisation the Yidby Gold Project during this period. Twenty-two (22) Reverse Circulation (RC) holes for 2,298m were completed at the Yidby Gold Project to:
-
follow up of discovery drilling at the Yidby Road gold deposit,
-
initial testing of a number of Mobile Metal Ions (MMI) gold anomalies, and
-
test gold mineralisation continuity of strike and depth extensions defined from previous drilling.
Drilling of MMI gold anomalies
The Company completed a surface geochemistry survey to the south-east of the discovery area to test for the extension of the mineralisation along the gravity low corridor in that direction. A total of 520 Mobile Metallic Ion (MMI) samples were collected on a 25m x 100m grid.
The survey delineated the new “Money” anomaly, a 1,000m x 250m gold anomaly that attains a peak of 58 times background. Two other anomalies were also mapped out (ASX release, 6 September 2021).
Seventeen RC holes for 1,271m were drilled to test a number of MMI gold anomalies. Initial results show that the holes have successfully intersected shallow and wide down hole zones of gold mineralisation.

Figure 1 - Surefire Resources NL project locations
With the confirmation that the MMI method works in this area, other MMI gold anomalies have increased priority for follow-up. In particular, MMI anomalies associated with the location of the interpreted antiformal axis and disruptive north-west trending shear zones have become high priority drill targets.
High resolution ground magnetic survey aids in developing gold model
The Yidby gold mineralisation is a blind discovery; the area is covered by up to 20 metres of barren transported overburden that overlies and masks the gold mineralisation.
During December 2021 Surefire completed a high-resolution ground magnetic survey over the discovery area. The survey of 260-line km, undertaken at a line spacing of 10m with a continuous recording magnetometer, was designed to assist in the interpretation of the gold intercepts obtained from recent and past RC drilling.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Interpretation of the ground magnetic data concluded that:
==> picture [204 x 74] intentionally omitted <==
-
gold is hosted in ultramafics and closely associated with the axial plane of a prominent north-west striking and plunging antiform suggesting that saddle reef style gold also exists on this prospect;
-
major north-west and east-west trending shear zones dissect the host rocks; and
-
secondary north-south and north-north-west trending faults may have acted to remobilise gold to form high grade gold accumulations.
PERENJORI GOLD, BASE-METALS & IRON ORE
The Perenjori Gold, Base Metals and Iron Ore Project includes five Exploration Licences (E70/5311, E70/5573, E70/5575, E59/2445, E59/2446 and E70/5572), a combined area of 642km², located in Midwest Region of WA.
The tenements are located over the Koolanooka Greenstone Belt, within a typical granite-greenstone terrain of the southern Murchison Geological Province of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton. The area is an under-explored and highly prospective, with numerous gold, base metals and iron-ore deposits in the region, including the Deflector Gold Mine 30km to the north, the Karara Iron Ore deposit 30km to the east and the Golden Grove base metals deposits 50km to the northeast.
Perenjori Iron Ore Project
Following the delivery of the Scoping Study for a high-grade magnetite concentrate production project on the Perenjori iron occurrence, planning began to determine the definition work required to increase the Inferred Mineral Resource of 191.7 Mt@ 36.6% Fe (ASX: QNL, 27 September 2013) and increase confidence in the estimate to enable a Measured Resource Estimate to be made.
Perenjori Gold Potential
Following the successful completion of the Conceptual Study (ASX announcement 22 June 2021) an expanded study was started on defining an exploration target. This is to add to the existing Inferred Mineral Resource.
A review of previous exploration data, focused on E70/5311 and E70/5572, has highlighted soil sampling geochemistry that has been interpreted to highlight key trends in both gold and arsenic data.
A broadly sampled (>1km spacing) north-south trending, gold-anomalous corridor has been identified running parallel but to the east of the banded iron formation (BIF) on E70/5311. This trend corresponds with a north-south trending structure interpreted from regional aeromagnetic imagery in the poorly exposed greenstones to the east of the bif, linking to an area of historical drilling that generated significant intersections (see SRN, ASX release 23 November 2020).
The Company is exploring options for infrastructure solutions, chiefly in the areas of transport, power, and water. In particular, a multi-user infrastructure option is being considered that will substantially reduce the capital required to develop this resource.
E70/5572 was granted during the period (ASX announcement 30 Dec 2021). This tenement:
-
Is over an under-explored Subsurface NW trending Greenstone Sequence;
-
Is covered by soils but host structural targets of long strike length;
-
Is covered by historical work completed by Sons of Gwalia and BHP;
-
Has up to 1g/t anomalous gold in BLEG soil samples;
-
Is large at 160km[2; ] and
-
Is 100% owned by Surefire Resources NL.
E70/5572 contains a previously unrecognised portion of the Koolanooka Greenstone Belt. Lying within typical granite-greenstone terrains of the southern Murchison Geological Province of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton, the greenstones consist of metamorphosed and deformed volcanic basalts (mafic schist), felsic volcanics. Additional and related volcanogenic sedimentary rocks (quartz-feldspar-muscovite schist), anticlinal dolerite sill add to the local structural complexity.
Kadji Gold-Base Metals Project
The Kadji Project (E59/2446 and E70/5575) covers over a 25km strike of an untested interpreted extension of the Koolanooka Greenstone Belt . The interpreted greenstone is bounded by major northwest trending faults and truncated and dislocated to the west at the northern end of the Kadji tenements. These major structures are analogous to the Yidby Road structural corridor and are highly prospective for gold and base metals. A large but poorly defined gravity high is associated with the greenstone corridor – possibly indicating a large mafic/ultramafic intrusive complex.
Interpretation of the recently completed high resolution aeromagnetic survey was advanced during the period. In particular, geological models of mineralisation in the district are being applied to develop targets for follow-up.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
KOOLINE HIGH GRADE LEAD-SILVER & COPPER-GOLD (E08/2373 & E08/2956)
==> picture [204 x 74] intentionally omitted <==
The Kooline lead-silver and copper-gold Project includes two exploration licences (E08/2373 and E08/2956) that cover a total area of 386 km², located in the Ashburton Province of Western Australia, 55 kilometres south of the 1 million-ounce Paulsen’s Gold Mine.
The tenements are highly prospective for extensions to the high-grade Kooline silver-lead lodes at the Kooline Mineral field, historically Western Australia’s largest producer of lead.
In addition, through re-processing and interpretation of geophysical data, the Company has identified potential for large intrusive related silver-lead to copper-gold systems (“IMCG”) at the Kooline Project.
Modelling of airborne EM data identifies high quality conductors
During the period, the existing VTEM airborne EM survey over Kooline was modelled by inversion (ASX announcement 18 October 2021).
Three high priority conductors and multiple lower priority conductors were identified, none of which have been previously drilled. These conductors are associated with an interpreted intrusive body, a heat and potential mineralised magmatic fluid source for an intrusive related “intracratonic magmatic copper-gold” or IMCG system (ASX release 14 December 2018).
Lower priority VTEM anomalies are associated with historically mined high-grade Pb-Ag lodes and are interpreted to represent the distal (cooler) zone of this IMCG mineralised system. Workings closer to the interpreted intrusive tend to show increasing copper (Cu) content possibly indicating that the conductors may be associated with Cu-Au sulphides. A significant conductor has been modelled under the historic Mt Conspicuous Mine.
Ground EM surveys are planned over the high priority targets to accurately position collars for drilling.
Kooline North aeromagnetic survey completed
Kooline North is a key target area for high-grade orogenic gold deposits associated with deep, crustal scale structures, similar to the 1Moz Paulsen’s Deposit located immediately to the north of the Kooline tenements. Evidence of high-grade veining projecting into covered, untested, areas represent a high priority target.
Following interpretation of the wide-spaced aeromagnetic data over Kooline North, a high-resolution survey was commissioned, flown, and preliminary data delivered during the period. This was a 50m line spaced survey to replace the currently available 400m line spaced survey. Radiometric data was collected.
A series of deep pre-collared diamond drill holes had been planned and submitted to the WA Government for joint Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS) funding, targeting both high-grade extensions of the Ag-Pb lode structures as well as copper-gold mineralisation closer to the interpreted intrusive. That submission was successful with the awarding of a $150,000 grant in co-funding.
Re-evaluation of previous VTEM interpretation has highlighted the need to undertake quantitative numeric modelling by inversion of this so-far underutilised dataset. That modelling has now begun and will form the basis for target characterisation prior to testing by ground EM surveys.

==> picture [204 x 75] intentionally omitted <==
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation
These general purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2021 have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard 134: Interim Financial Reporting .
These financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on the date of the Directors Declaration.
This interim financial report is intended to provide users with an update on the latest annual financial statements of Surefire Resources NL (the “ Company ”) and its subsidiary (together, the “ Group ”). As such, it does not contain information that represents relatively insignificant changes occurring during the half-year. It is therefore recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021, together with any public announcements made by the Company during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001.
These financial statements have been prepared on an accruals and historical cost basis, except where indicated.
Going Concern
For the half-year ended 31 December 2021, the Group incurred an operating loss of $1,257,323 (31 December 2020: $1,669,454) and had a net surplus in working capital of $1,669,454 at reporting date.
The directors are satisfied that at the date of signing of the financial report, there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will be able to continue to meet its debts as and when they fall due and that it is appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on a going concern basis.
Accounting Policies
The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been followed in this interim financial report as were applied in the most recent annual financial statements.
The Group has adopted all the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the Group.
Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards of Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been adopted early.
Restatement
The balance sheet as of 30 June 2021 has been restated to reflect the right-of-use asset and related lease liabilities in relation to the office lease at 10/100 Mill Point Road South Perth WA which were not recognised in the financial statement for the year ended 30 June 2021. There was no material impact on the statement of financial performance.
NOTE 2 OPERATING SEGMENTS
Segment Information
Identification of reportable segments
The Group has identified that it operates in only one segment based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the board of directors (chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The Group's principal activity is mineral exploration.
Revenue and assets by geographical region
The Group's revenue is received from sources and assets located wholly within Australia.
Major customers
Due to the nature of its current operations, the Group does not provide products and services.

Independent Auditor's Review Report
To the members of Surefire Resources NL
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
Conclusion
We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Surefire Resources NL (“the Company”) and it’s controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated condensed statement of financial position as at 31 December 2021, the consolidated condensed statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated condensed statement of changes in equity and the consolidated condensed statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors' declaration.
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the accompanying half-year financial report of the Group does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2021 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
-
b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the 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 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 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 review report.
Responsibility of Management for the Financial Report
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporation Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether 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 Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2021, and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standards 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.
