Notes to the Financial Statements

For the Period Ended 31 December 2010

1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of Preparation

The interim financial statements are general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting.

It is recommended that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2010 and any public announcements made by Terrain Minerals Limited during the half‐year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001.

The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been followed in these interim financial statements as were applied in the most recent annual financial statements.

The half‐year financial statements do not include full disclosures of the type normally included in the annual financial statements.

(b) Going Concern

For the period ended 31 December 2010, the Group recorded a loss of \$561,751. At 31 December 2010, the cash balance was \$631,599.

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Directors have determined that future capital raisings or asset sales will be required in order to continue the exploration and development of the company's mining tenements (some subject an option payment) to achieve a position where they can prove exploration reserves.

The ability of the company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the company raising further capital or realising funds from the sale of assets sufficient to meet the company's expenditure commitments.

The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast for the foreseeable future reflecting the above mentioned expectations and their effect upon Terrain Minerals Ltd. The achievement of the forecast is dependent upon the future capital raising and/or sale of assets, the outcome of which is uncertain.

In the event that sufficient capital raising or asset sales at an amount and timing necessary to meet the future budgeted operational and investing activities of the company is unfavourable the Directors believe that they will be able to contain the operating and investment activities sufficiently to ensure that Terrain Minerals Ltd can meet its debts as and when they become due and payable.

In the event that the events referred to above result in a negative outcome, then the going concern basis of accounting may not be appropriate with the result that the company may have to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and in amounts different from that stated in the financial statements.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should Terrain Minerals Ltd not be able to continue as a going concern.

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the Period Ended 31 December 2010

2 Deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure

The following table details the movement in deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure reported in the statement of financial position during the period.

Carrying amount at beginning of the reporting period 8,526,008 7,817,217

Disposals (27,304)
Transfers to Non Current Assets Held for Sale (426,977)
10,138,902 8,526,008

The recoupment of deferred exploration and evaluation costs carried forward is dependent upon the successful development and commercialisation or sale of the areas of interests being explored and evaluated.

3 Borrowings

During the period the company raised \$1.5 million from Zulu Capital Limited, via a convertible note, for funding gold mining at the Celtic Pit. The amount can be repaid in cash, shares or a combination of both. The loan is payable 6 months from draw down with interest accrued and capitalised at 12% p.a.

5 Share‐based Payments

On 23 December 2010, the company issued 2,500,000 options to 5 directors in line with the company's policy of performance based remuneration. Using the Black and Scholes Option valuation methodology, the fair value of the options issued were calculated using the following inputs.

Number of options: 2,500,000 Risk free interest rate: 4.71%
Exercise price: \$0.045 Share price at date of issue: \$0.03
Expected exercise price: 31 December 2012 Expected volatility 100%

Each option was valued at \$0.0137

On the same date, an additional 500,000 options were issued to Chris Tomich. These options were identical to those detailed above except that carried an exercise price of \$0.08 and were valued at \$0.0095. These options were issued to honour the contractual obligations entered by the company upon engaging Mr Tomich.

Total expenses arising from share based payments to directors during the half year was \$38,218 (2009: 436,272).

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the Period Ended 31 December 2010

5 Share‐based Payments (continued)

A summary of the movements of all company options issued is as follows:

Number Weighted
Average
Exercised
Price
Options outstanding as at 30 June 2009 3,100,000 \$ 0.20
Granted 9,400,000 \$ 0.17
Options outstanding as at 30 June 2010 12,500,000 \$ 0.17
Granted 3,000,000 \$ 0.05
Options outstanding as at 31 December 2010 15,500,000 \$ 0.15

As at the date of exercise, the weighted average share price of options exercised during the period was \$0.08.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at period end was 4.34 years.

6 Segment Reporting

Management has determined that the company has one reportable segment, being mineral exploration in Western Australia. As the company is focussed on mineral exploration, the Board monitors the company based on actual versus budgeted exploration expenditure incurred by the company as a whole. This reporting framework is the most relevant to assist the Board with making decisions regarding the company and its ongoing exploration activities, while also taking into consideration the results of exploration work that has been performed to date.

7 Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

There has been no change in contingent liabilities since the last annual reporting date.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TERRAIN MINERALS LIMITED

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Terrain Minerals Limited, which comprises the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2010, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the halfyear ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors' declaration.

Directors' Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the disclosing entity are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the disclosing entity's financial position as at 31 December 2010 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of Terrain Minerals Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

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.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of Terrain Minerals Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's report.

Conclusion

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

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the disclosing entity's financial position as at 31 December 2010 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.

Emphasis of Matter

Without qualifying our conclusion, we draw attention to Note 1(b) in the half-year financial report which indicates that Terrain Minerals Limited incurred a net loss of \$561,751 during the half-year ended 31 December 2010. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1 (b), indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the disclosing entity's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, whether the disclosing entity can realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business at amounts stated in the half yearly report.
