REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
INVESTMENT IN EDEN ENERGY LTD (ASX Code:EDE)
As at 30 June 2016, Tasman through its wholly owned subsidiary, Noble Energy Pty Ltd, held 493,198,298 fully paid shares in Eden (representing 42.37% of the total issued capital of Eden) and 101,356,779 EDEO options representing 45.81% of the issued EDEO options. Based on the closing prices on the ASX of EDE ($0.23) and EDEO ($0.205) on 30 June 2016, this investment had a market value of $134 million, which is equivalent to 35.3 cents for every currently issued TAS share.
The board of Tasman believes there is potentially significant further upside in its investment in Eden and as a major part of Tasman’s investment strategy it intends to continue to hold the Eden shares and options as a long term investment.
The Highlights of progress made by Eden during the year are as follows:
EdenCrete[TM]
-
Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT)
-
I-20 Interstate Highway field trial, using EdenCrete[TM ] added to GDOT’s 24 hour accelerated concrete repair mix in two trial slabs, was conducted (Augusta, August 2015) .
-
Results were 45.8% improvement in compressive strength, and a 56% reduction in the depth of wear in an abrasion resistance test.
-
Eden received formal approval from the GDOT New Products Evaluation Committee for use of EdenCrete[TM] in GDOT 24 hour accelerated concrete applications and Class B concrete applications and discussions commenced in relation to specifications for the use of 24-Hour Accelerated Concrete/ Class B Concrete.
-
Since the end of the financial year:
-
an inspection of the I-20 field trail slab shows it is showing no visible cracking or significant signs of wear after 11 months of highway wear, whereas the control section is already showing a significant crack developing; and
-
GDOT has advised it proposes to use EdenCrete[TM] in several state funded forthcoming suitable highway slab replacement projects in Georgia.
-
GDOT intends that the requests for tender in these selected projects will specify that EdenCrete[TM] be added to the concrete.
-
These will be the first commercial contracts for EdenCrete[TM] for US highway repair projects.
-
-
The GDOT field trial of EdenCrete[TM] in Class 1 concrete has been included in a new section of highway that is being tendered and is presently anticipated to take place in 2018 unless this timetable can be accelerated.
-
Commercial order received for use of EdenCrete[TM] in replacing a section of a high strength concrete slab at an industrial site that is subject to extreme wear and abrasion, following an earlier successful field trial at the site (October 2015). This project was completed and since the end of the financial year, a second section of concrete slab has been replaced using concrete with EdenCrete[TM ] added.
-
First commercial EdenCrete[TM] order received for an infrastructure project, for use at a new MARTA bus garage in Atlanta, Georgia and the project was undertaken, achieving the following improvements in performance:
| | Compressive Strength Increase - | 38% |
|---|---|---|
| | Split Tensile Strength Increase - | 59% |
| | Modulus of Elasticity Increase - | 24% |
| | Abrasion Resistance Increase - | 47% |
| | Shrinkage Reduction (Improvement) - | 9% |
- Trials of EdenCrete[TM] with lower dosage rates of EdenCrete[TM] showed material improvement in performance characteristics of concrete, including a 46% reduction (improvement) in the rate of abrasion using ½ US gallon of EdenCrete[TM] / yard[3] of concrete, which would have added only approximately 3.5% - 4% to the installed cost of the concrete paid by GDOT on the I-20 field trial.

-
9.5% increase in freeze / thaw resistance at 180 days (from 88 to 96.4) (ASTM C666); and
-
3 minute delay in Time of Set (ASTM C403).
-
The expansion of Eden’s Colorado based production capability of EdenCrete[TM] , from its present level of approximately 108,000 gallons per year to a targeted maximum of 2 million - 2.4 million gallons per year commenced and is on schedule to be operational by early in 2017. Plans are also underway to acquire the Colorado facility which has previously been occupied under a lease.
-
Eden identified a suitable site in Augusta, Georgia for it to build its large scale, future global EdenCrete[TM] production facility and secured a financial assistance and incentives package (including a conditional land grant of 112 acres along with various exemptions and rebates from future taxes and levies) worth in aggregate US$24.76 million from Georgia Economic Development Authority and Augusta Economic Development Authority.
-
Eden commenced assembling a US team of highly experienced concrete admixture sales staff and since the end of the financial year has engaged 5 full time sales staff appointed with a collective aggregate of 109 years’ experience covering more than 30 states in the USA. At least three further similarly experienced sales staff are also considering joining the Eden sales team.
-
Eden finalised its agreement with Deakin University to proceed with a collaborative Australian Research Council (“ARC”) Linkage Grant research project into ultra-high strength carbon nanotube enriched concrete requiring little or no reinforcing steel.
CNT Enriched Polymers and Plastics- EdenPlast[TM]
- The ongoing collaborative research project between Eden and the University of Queensland (funded by the Australian Research Council to the extent of A$255,000 and commenced in 2014), into carbon nanotubes in plastics, achieved very encouraging preliminary results.
Optiblend™ Dual Fuel
- 24 units sold in India and the USA during the year, totalling $1.1 million.
Corporate
-
Eden completed the sale of its 100% owned UK subsidiary that held all its UK gas assets to the parent of its UK Joint Venture partners in consideration for an earn-out arrangement.
-
Eden raised A$17.45 million additional capital through a placement to two US investment funds, a placement to sophisticated and professional investors, a rights issue and the exercise of options.

EXPLORATION RESULTS
PARKINSON DAM GOLD-SILVER EPITHERMAL PROJECT, SOUTH AUSTRALIA, EL 5602 (TASMAN 100%)
No further field exploration or drilling was conducted at Corrie Dam Prospect during the quarter (Figure 1). Previous air core drilling at the prospect has intersected anomalous lead, silver and copper mineralisation at shallow depths, including 25m downhole from 60m averaging 0.36% Pb and 1.4g/t Ag in hole CDAC015 and 15m down hole from 55m at 6.6g/t Ag, 0.17% Cu and 0.11% Pb in drill hole CDAC 030 (true widths are not known). These results were reported previously to the ASX on 8 April 2015 and on 21 May 2015.
Further drilling, including deeper RC holes is being considered at Corrie Dam, subject to sufficient funds being available and an upturn in global metal demand. Possible IP geophysical surveying is also being considered (subject to funding) over the area containing the earlier gold-silver discoveries at Parkinson Dam, including drill hole PD 63 (see Figure 1).

Background - Previous Exploration at Parkinson Dam
Tasman discovered outcropping epithermal gold – silver mineralisation at Parkinson Dam in 2005. Subsequent drilling confirmed the presence of widespread, but generally low-grade mineralisation over several square kilometres; however, in one area an intersection of 21m at 21g/t Au and 83g/t Ag was obtained. Selected intersections from drilling include:
-
PD 63: 21m down hole from 179m at 21g/t Au and 83g/t Ag (including 9m from 179m at 31g/t Au and 152g/t Ag)
-
PD 30: 20m down hole from 237m at 0.1g/t Au, 16g/t Ag, 1.2% Pb, 1.5% Zn (including 1.66m down hole from 254.34m at 1.2g/t Au, 120g/t Ag, 7.6% Pb and 10.5% Zn)
(This information was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported (refer ASX announcements 14[th] June 2007: “High-Grade Assay Results from Parkinson Dam” (PD 63) and 6[th] November 2006: “High Grade Lead and Zinc at Parkinson Dam” (PD 30), available to view on www.tasmanresources.com.au.))

LAKE TORRENS IRON-OXIDE, COPPER-GOLD-URANIUM (IOCGU) PROJECT (100% TASMAN)
Vulcan Project
The Lake Torrens IOCGU Project is located approximately 15km north of Olympic Dam, and has been the focus of a significant exploration effort by Tasman over a number of years. During the Quarter, no further field exploration was conducted on this Project.
Background to Vulcan Discovery
Tasman identified Vulcan, within the Lake Torrens project area, as a prime IOCGU target in 2009, based on the presence of a very large gravity anomaly, supporting magnetic and seismic anomalies and Vulcan’s location close to key tectonic (structural) lineaments, which had previously been used in the original targeting of Olympic Dam by WMC in the mid-1970s. Tasman’s initial discovery drill hole, VUD 001, intersected the Vulcan IOCGU system late in 2009.
Eight diamond drill holes had been completed by Tasman at Vulcan between 2009 and early 2011. All exhibit IOCGU-style alteration and/or mineralisation, including copper, gold, uranium, silver, molybdenum and rare earth elements. Age dating of the mineralisation at about 1,590 million years confirms that Vulcan belongs to the same “family” of deposits as Olympic Dam, Prominent Hill and Carrapateena.
Tasman entered a Farm In / Joint Venture with Rio Tinto Exploration (RTX) covering the whole of EL 4322, including the Vulcan discovery. Under the Farm In, RTX paid to Tasman $10 million and Tasman managed an exploration program consisting of 12,000m of drilling. RTX withdrew from the Farm In in early 2014.
LUCAS HILL IOCGU PROJECT (100% TASMAN)
No further drilling was conducted during the year at Lucas Hill prospect on the Stuart Shelf, approximately 25km south east of Woomera. Alteration and weak copper mineralisation were intersected in the initial two holes completed by Tasman early in 2012.

INVESTMENT IN CONICO LTD (ASX Code:CNJ)
Tasman has a 14% interest in Conico Ltd.
Mt Thirsty Oxide Deposit
Conico Ltd owns 50% of the Mt Thirsty Nickel-Cobalt Project in WA, with the other 50% held by Barra Resources Limited (ASX: BAR). Mt Thirsty is located 20 kilometres north-northwest of Norseman, Western Australia. Mt Thirsty has a JORC (2004) compliant Indicated Resource of 16.6 million tonnes at 0.14% Co, 0.60% Ni and 0.98% Mn and a JORC (2004) compliant Inferred Resource of 15.3 million tonnes at 0.11% Co, 0.51% Ni and 0.73% Mn over an apparent strike of 1.3 kilometres and a width of around 800 metres.
(This resource information was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported, refer ASX Announcement 8[th] March 2011: “Resource Upgrade”, available to view on www.conico.com.au.)

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Remuneration Report (Audited)
This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of Tasman Resources Ltd, and for the executives receiving the highest remuneration.
Remuneration Policy
The remuneration policy of Tasman Resources Ltd has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific longterm incentives based on key performance areas affecting the economic entity’s financial results. The board of Tasman Resources Ltd believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the economic entity, as well as create goal congruence between directors, executives and shareholders.
The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the group is that all executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, fringe benefits and options.
All directors and executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution where required by the government, which is currently 9.5%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Some individuals, however, have chosen to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation.
All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Any shares which may be issued to executives would be valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the director or executive. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology.
The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. The remuneration committee determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the economic entity. To align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company and are able to participate in the employee option plan.
Performance based Remuneration
No performance based remuneration was paid during the year.
Options issued as part of remuneration for the year ended 30 June 2016
6,750,000 ESOP options were issued as part of remuneration during the year, of which 1,000,000 ESOP options were issued to key management personnel.
Shares Issued on Exercise of Compensation Options
During the year 4,300,000 ESOP options in the Group were exercised and 1,000,000 fully paid shares (ASX: TAS) in the Company and 3,300,000 fully paid shares in Eden Energy Ltd (ASX: EDE) were issued to employees. The amount paid per share upon the exercise of the options was $0.5 and $0.025.
Details of Remuneration for Year Ended 30 June 2016
The remuneration for each director and each of the executive officers of the Group during the year was as follows:

(ii) The appointment of Robert Smith and Michael Glasson may be terminated by giving not less than four weeks’ written notice.
Directors’ Meetings
During the financial year, 1 meeting of directors was held. Attendance by each director during the year was as follows:
| Number eligible to attend | Number attended | |
|---|---|---|
| Gregory H Solomon | 1 | 1 |
| Douglas H Solomon | 1 | 1 |
| Guy T Le Page | 1 | 1 |
Due to the nature of the operations and the size of the board, all the directors were in close communication throughout the year and most matters were attended to by way of circulatory resolution rather than formal directors’ meetings.
Indemnifying Officers or Auditor
The group has paid premiums to insure the directors against liabilities for costs and expenses incurred by them in defending any legal proceedings arising out of their conduct while acting in the capacity of director of the company, other than conduct involving a wilful breach of duty in relation to the company. The total premium paid for the year was $40,291.
Proceedings on Behalf of Group
No person has applied for leave of Court to bring proceedings on behalf of the group or intervene in any proceedings to which the group is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the group for all or any part of those proceedings.
The group was not a party to any such proceedings during the year.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 . The financial report of Tasman Resources Limited and controlled entities complies with all International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in their entirety.
The financial report covers the consolidated group of Tasman Resources Ltd and controlled entities as at and for the year ended 30 June 2016. Tasman Resources Ltd is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Group is a for-profit entity and primarily is involved in mineral exploration in South Australia and clean energy technology through its subsidiary Eden Energy Ltd.
The financial report was authorised for issue on 27 September 2016 by the board of directors.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the group in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of Preparation
The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all years presented.
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. These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Tasman Resources Ltd’s and Eden Energy Ltd’s functional currency. The functional currencies of Eden Energy Ltd’s subsidiaries are USD and INR.
Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
Accounting Policies
a. Principles of Consolidation
A controlled entity is any entity Tasman Resources Ltd 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. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 18 to the financial statements. All controlled entities have a June financial year-end.
All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the parent.
- Non-controlling interests in the equity and results of the entities that are controlled are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial report.
b. Income Tax
The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any nonassessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. 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 is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the group will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised.
Tasman Resources Ltd and Noble Energy Pty Ltd, its wholly-owned Australian subsidiary, have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The Group notified the Australian Tax Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1 July 2005. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax of the tax consolidated group.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
c. Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Costs are assigned on the basis of first-in, first-out.
d. Property, Plant and Equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are initially recognised at acquisition cost or manufacturing cost, including any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Group’s management.
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount. 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.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Class of Fixed Asset
Depreciation Rate
Plant and equipment 15 – 50% straight line
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement.
e. Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward where the right to tenure is current and to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
f. Assets held for sale
Non-current assets are classified as held-for-sale if it is highly probable that they will be recovered through sale rather than continuing use.
Immediately before classification as held-for-sale, the assets are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s other accounting policies. Thereafter generally the assets are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Impairment losses on initial classification as held-forsale and subsequent gains or losses on remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss.
- g. Intangibles
Research and development
Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred. Development costs are capitalised only when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably.
Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property, which includes trademarks and engineering knowledge, is included in the financial statements at cost, being their fair value on acquisition.
Intellectual property and trademarks are only amortised or written down where the useful lives are limited or impaired by specific circumstances, in such cases amortisation is charged on a straight line basis over their useful lives and write downs are charged fully when incurred. The directors have assessed the useful life of the intellectual property and have determined that it has a finite useful life of 10 to 20 years. The intellectual property is amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.
Intellectual property is amortised over 10-20 years in line with its useful life.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- h. Financial Instruments
Recognition
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
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.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
- i. Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is based on the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.
Transaction and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.
Group companies
The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the group’s presentation currency are translated as follows:
-
assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;
-
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and
-
retained earnings are translated at historic rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group’s foreign currency translation reserve in the balance sheet. These differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which the operation is disposed of. Intercompany loans are treated as investments for foreign currency translation purposes.
- j. Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its non-financial tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.
Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
- k. Investments in Associates
Investments in associate companies are recognised in the financial statements by applying the equity method of accounting. The equity method of accounting recognises the group’s share of post-acquisition reserves of its associates.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- l. Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.
Equity-settled compensation
The Group operates a number of share-based compensation plans. These include both a share option arrangement and an employee share scheme. The bonus element over the exercise price of the employee services rendered in exchange for the grant of shares and options is recognised as an expense in the income statement. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the shares of the options granted.
- m. 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.
-
n. Cash and Cash Equivalents
-
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments and bank overdrafts.
-
o. Revenue
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers. Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers.
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.
p. Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
- q. New accounting standards and interpretations
A number of new and revised standards became effective for the first time to annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2015. The more significant standard is AASB 2015-4 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Financial Reporting Requirements for Australian Groups with a Foreign Parent, which amends AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures.
The adoption of this amendment has not had a material impact on the Group.
- r. Segment reporting
Segment results that are reported to the Group’s board of directors (the chief operating decision maker) include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.
s. Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from equity.
t. New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted
A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 July 2016, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- u. Key estimates
The directors evaluate estimates and judgments 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 internally.
Key Estimates – Exploration and evaluation
The Group’s policy for exploration and evaluation is discussed in Note 1(e). The application of this policy requires management to make certain assumptions as to future events and circumstances. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. At the date of this report the Group has sufficient reason to believe:
-
rights to explore in specific areas, once expired, will be renewed;
-
substantive expenditure on exploration and evaluation in specific areas has been budgeted;
-
exploration in specific areas is ongoing and the Group has not decided to discontinue; and
-
no specific sufficient data exists that indicates that the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered.
Key Estimates — Impairment
The group assesses impairment of assets held for sale and intangible assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the group that may lead to impairment of assets. At the date of this report the Group has sufficient reason to believe that no impairment triggers exist for intangible assets.
There is a significant risk of actual outcomes being different from those forecasted due to changes in economic or market conditions and events.
Key Estimates — Share-based payment transactions
The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity settled transactions with suppliers by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments as at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using a Black-Scholes model. Refer to Note 28 for the inputs to the Black-Scholes model.

NOTE 12: ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
On 29 May 2013, Eden announced a conditional contract to sell all of its interest in its UK Gas project. Since that date that conditional contract was terminated, a heads of terms with another purchaser was agreed and signed, to be subsequently terminated. Consequently, assets and liabilities allocable to Adamo Energy (UK) Ltd were classified as a disposal group in 2015. Revenue and expenses, gains and losses relating to the discontinuation of Adamo Energy (UK) Ltd have been eliminated from profit or loss from the Group’s continuing operations and are shown as a single line item on the face of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income (see loss for the year from discontinued operations).
On 24 February 2016 the sale of Adamo Energy (UK) Ltd, the subsidiary company which holds the licences, was completed for £1.00 and an earn out arrangement based on a percentage of petroleum sales on the PEDL sold. This resulted in a loss of $5,020 before tax, primarily due to related selling costs.
The loss of Adamo Energy (UK) Ltd until the date of disposal and the loss from re-measurement of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale is summarised as follows:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016 NOTE 28: SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
The following share-based payment arrangements existed at 30 June 2016:
All options granted to key management personnel are for ordinary shares in either Tasman Resources Ltd or Eden Energy Ltd, which confer a right of one ordinary share for every option held.
The Tasman options outstanding at 30 June 2016 all had an exercise price of $0.05 and remaining contractual life of 1.75 years. The Eden options outstanding at 30 June 2016 all had an exercise price of $0.095 and remaining contractual life of 2.67 years.
Historical volatility has been the basis for determining expected share price volatility as it is assumed that this is indicative of future volitility, which may not eventuate. Volatility of 64% and a risk free rate of 1.5% were used in the Black-Scholes model for the options granted during the year. The life of the options is based on the historical exercise patterns, which may not eventuate in the future.
4,300,000 options were exercised during the year ended 30 June 2016. Included under employee benefits expense in the income statement is $216,000 (2015: $11,775) and relates, in full, to equity settled share-based payment transactions.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Tasman Resources Ltd
Report on the financial report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Tasman Resources Ltd, which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2016, and 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 ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies, other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
Directors’ responsibility for the financial report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 . This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. In Note 1, the directors also state that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal controls relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
