OVERVIEW

1. Molyhil Project

Location and history

Molyhil is located 220 kilometres north-east of Alice Springs within the prospective polymetallic province of the Proterozoic Eastern Arunta Block NT.

The granted exploration licence covers in excess of 820 square kilometres. The most advanced area lies within the mining lease application (MLA23825) where extensive exploration activities were focused during the year.

to the collapse of the tungsten price. Very little subsequent work has been undertaken until Tennant Creek Gold began its exploration programme in June 2004.

Local Geology and Mineralisation

The Molyhil deposit lies within a magnetite-rich skarn (10-40m wide) with associated calc-silicate homfels and granitic intrusives. Shearing, faulting, and folding are all present within the pit. The sequence strikes north and dips to the east and plunges south at about 70°. The deposit comprises two distinct lodes

Discussions have commenced with potential buyers of Tungsten and Molybdenum concentrates and strong expressions of interest have been received from four parties including major smelting groups from the USA and China.

The Molyhil Scheelite-Molybdenite deposit has been the focal point of historical exploration within the licence area. Exploration conducted by the Mines Branch in 1976/77 led to the discovery of the Southern orebody which resulted in Petrocarb NL acquiring the project in 1978. Petrocarb conducted exploration and mining activities until 1982. Mining operations were suspended in 1982 due

called the "Southern" and "Yacht Club" lodes. The aerial extent of both lodes is approximately 160m x 100m. Continental Resource Management have estimated an inferred resource of 900,000 tonnes at 0.4% Scheelite and 0.25% molybdenite to a depth of about 110m. This estimate is based on Petrocarb's 1977-1981 diamond and percussion drilling. Petrocarb's resource/reserve estimates

contained much higher grades and were based on statistical evidence from mined head grades which substantially exceeded drill indicated grades.

Exploration-development Programme

During June and July 2004, Tennant Creek Gold completed a detailed RC and diamond drill programme over the Molyhil deposit in conjunction with an aeromagnetic survey and metallurgical and engineering studies.

Excellent down-hole molybdenum and tungsten grades are often seen in magnetite-rich hornfels or skarn, and commonly along skarn-granite or skarn-hornfels contact zones.

Improvements in interpretation, better sampling, and improved drilling techniques have resulted in the development by Tennant Creek Gold of a more reliable geological model than previously generated by Petrocarb.

Initial metallurgy and geotechnical studies are well advanced with reports due in October. Plans are underway to extract 10-20 tonne of mineralised skarn for metallurgical assessment to be run concurrently with smaller scale test work. Once all the assays have been received, resource calculations and pit optimisation studies will be completed.

The present high prices for Molybdenum and Tungsten have resulted from a global deficit for both metals with stockpiles depleted and current mining production levels struggling to meet demand, a situation which many analysts are predicting may last for several years.

Molyhil Exploration Potential

Drilling to date has intersected high grade mineralisation below the limits of open pit mining within both the Yacht Club and Southern lodes, and indicates excellent potential for future underground mining.

Geophysical modeling suggests the magnetite rich Molyhil lodes extend to over 400m depth. Numerous other magnetic and rock chip anomalies lie within the EL, in particular additional work will soon commence on aeromagnetic anomalies at Thring Creek (potential magnetic skarn) and Black Ridge prospect.

About Molybdenum

Molybdenum is a metallic element which is most frequently used as an alloying element in stainless steels and various alloys. Its alloying versatility is unmatched because its addition enhances strength, harden-ability, weld-ability, toughness and elevated temperature strength and corrosion resistance. Although Molybdenum is primarily used in steels, its complex and unique properties have proved invaluable in a constantly expanding range of other alloy systems and chemicals. One of the unique features of Molybdenum, as distinct from other heavy metals, is that laboratory tests have shown its compounds to be of low toxicity.

Global production of Molybdenum in 2003 totaled approximately 127,000 tonnes. The three main producing countries are USA (29%), Chile (25%), and China (22%).

About Tungsten

Tungsten is a most distinctive metal with some extreme physical properties:

* It is the hardest of all metals
The strongest of all metals
Highest melting point of all metals and the second highest of all elements
* Extremely heavy: SG 19
High resistance to corrosion
Environmentally friendly, very low toxicity
High thermal and electrical conducting

Review of Operations and Activities

Tungsten has a wide range of industrial uses. The largest use is as Tungsten carbide in cemented carbides. Cemented carbides (also called hardmetals) are wear-resistant materials used by the metalworking, mining and construction industries. Cemented carbides account for about 60% of consumption for Tungsten and are, therefore, the main driving factor behind Tungsten demand.

Tungsten is used to make tool steels, wear-resistant alloy parts and coatings, super alloys for turbine blades, and heavy metal alloys for armaments, heat sinks, and high-density applications, such as weights and counterweights. The steels and alloying sector represents almost 25% of global Tungsten consumption.

Tungsten metal wires, electrodes, and/or contacts are used in lighting, electronic, electrical, heating and welding applications. Collectively, these are known as mill products, which are mainly used in the lamp industry and for electrical and electronic contacts, and represent about 8% of Tungsten consumption.

Chemical uses of Tungsten include catalysts, inorganic pigments, and high-temperature lubricants and other uses account for the remaining Tungsten end demand.

World consumption of Tungsten is currently approximately 47,000 tonnes per annum of which 80% is supplied by China.

2. Spring Hill/Woolgni:

Spring Hill is located approximately 200 kilometres south of Darwin and contains a JORC compliant Indicated Resource of 3.6 million tonnes @ 2.34 g/t Au for 274,000 oz's of contained gold.

Historically, high-grade lodes at Spring Hill were mined in the early part of the last century. More recently the tenements have been the subject of extensive exploration by Territory Resources NL, Billiton Australia ("Billiton"), and Ross Mining NL ("Ross Mining") for bulk tonnage-low grade gold deposits.

Major gold deposits Pine Creek region.

Additional previously published resources are non-JORC compliant however are indicative of the promising exploration potential to rapidly increase the resource base. Tennant Creek Gold plans to commence exploration shortly and is also reviewing several regional acquisition opportunities.

The Spring Hill Project is located in close proximity to the Union Reefs CIP treatment plant, which was recently purchased by Northern Gold Limited. Tennant Creek Gold is currently assessing the potential for toll treating Spring Hill ore at the Union Reefs CIP plant. The Project has the potential to be developed as a substantial regional gold producer. The Woolgni Goldfield is located on the

Warrantunga formation sediments outcropping above M18 anomoly.

south bank of the Fergusson River 30 kilometres south of Pine Creek. Alluvial mining commenced in 1897 with numerous shafts, with hand picked ore averaging 30 oz's/tonne. Recorded production to 1905 was 3,840 oz's.

Exploration in the modern era commenced in 1981 with the Zappopan NL/Seventh State Mines NL JV with the farm in of Hilltop Enterprises in 1990. After extensive exploration which included drilling and costeaning, an inferred resource was calculated at 150,000 tonne averaging 2.7 g/t Au using a 1.0 g/t cut-off or 280,000 tonnes averaging 2.3 g/t, Au using a 0.5 g/t cut-off.

The Project has the potential to
be developed as a substantial regional gold producer.

The Spring Hill and Woolgni Project contains several regional targets, which have been generated from regional geochemistry, airborne magnetics, structural interpretations and geological modelling. Focus of exploration will be concentrated on gold mineralisation along these highly prospective corridors.

3. Tennant Creek:

Tennant Creek comprises the Rover and MacLaren Creek JVs and the Bonney Well Prospect which form part of the massive Desertex JV managed by Newmont Mining. Tennant Creek Gold has an 8% free carried to production interest in these projects which are located approximately 60 kilometres south of Tennant Creek.

Tennant Creek Gold also has a 100% interest in tenements covering magnetic bulls eye targets designated M18, M19 and M20, which are analogous to the nearby world class gold-gold/copper deposits of White Devil and Warrego.

4. Hatches Creek:

Hatches Creek is located approximately 100 kilometres south east of Tennant Creek. Review of historic data has outlined extensive tungsten, copper and gold workings within the Hatches Creek Field.

Three phases of mining occurred stimulated by an increased demand for tungsten i.e. 1913 to 1923, 1934 to 1944 and 1946 to 1957.

At the Pioneer Mine (largest working on the field) gold was found in both the wolframite (2.68 g/t Au) and copper enriched zones (3.42 g/t). The best gold assay was however from the Diamond

Group of Wolfram workings 4 kilometres south of the Pioneer Mine (20.9 g/t gold).

Negotiations have been completed to allow granted tenure and access further exploration of the underground potential beneath the old workings. Hatches Creek may provide a supplementary tungsten source for the Molyhil Project.

Molyhil Open Pit.

5. Mount Peake:

Mount Peake is located in the Arunta Province 80 kilometres north east of Alice Springs. Subject to a farm-in Agreement, Falconbridge may earn a 60% interest. Ultramafic intrusions are known in the area which may be the source of more than one discrete magnetic anomaly. Airborne EM and magnetic surveys have indicated possible ultramafic nickel targets.

6. Rodinga:

Rodinga occurs in the Amadaeus Basin 140 kilometres south east of Alice Springs. Regional assay results from previous exploration present highly anomalous Ni-Co-Cu-Pb-Zn over the central and western side of the exploration license. Within the northern boundary lies an extremely large magnetic anomaly that remains untested.

7. Peterman's (Musgrave Block):

The Peterman's tenements occupy approximately 5,000 square kilometres within a complex structural setting dominated by a major thrust fault zone. The exploration potential for nickel, Mississippi Valley type lead-zinc deposits, gold and diamonds is considered high. The carbonate-rich beds are regarded as highly prospective for structurally controlled Paleozoic gold deposits similar to White Range and Winnecke on the northern boundary of the Amadeus Basin.

This area has never been explored beyond basic interpretation of regional remote sensing and is regarded as a high priority for systematic exploration subject to grant of Mining Titles.

8. Tanami East:

Tanami East is also known as Goddard's Prospect where significant malachite mineralisation outcrops over a strike length of 1,200 metres. Numerous values over 1% Cu and 100 ppb Au were obtained from rock chip samples from 1970's Geopeko exploration and represents significant exploration potential for copper-gold deposits.

Western Australia - Nickel production at Cawse Extended

The OM Group Inc. (OMG) owns and manages the Cawse Nickel-Cobalt Operation. OMG and Tennant Creek Gold jointly own the adjacent Cawse Extended Project. Tennant Creek Gold's interest in the Cawse Extended Project is 20% freecarried to production, convertible at Tennant Creek Gold's election to a 2% net smelter return.

In 2003 Tennant Creek Gold entered into an Agreement with OMG to commence mining at the Unicorn Pit located on the Cawse Extended tenements. The agreement is for a wet tonne royalty payment, which replaces the current agreement only for ore mined from the Unicorn Pit and transported to the Cawse ROM pad prior to processing. The Agreement has been structured to allow for variations in the nickel price. and the AUD/USD exchange rate such that the wet tonne payment is variable within the range AU\$0.50/wt and AU\$0.90/wt. OMG commenced mining at Unicorn in September 2003.

The total royalty earned in the period to 30 June 2004 was \$245,695.

Tennant Creek Gold expects mining at the Unicorn Pit to continue through to at least the March 2005 quarter. Infill drilling around Unicorn Pit has been completed and OMG have advised they are currently undertaking further work in order to delineate an additional cutback.

OMG have further advised exploration. drilling has been undertaken at several new prospects within Cawse Extended. In 2004 OMG drilled a total of 7,657 metres at Cerberus, Dragon, Jedbob, Ogre and Yeti with further work to be undertaken in the September quarter.

The drilling includes infill exploration at the Jedbob Prospect to allow further drilling to identify the most prospective location for an initial pit.

Other Western Australian tenements

Tennant Creek Gold holds an interest in three other tenement groups and in each case is not contributing towards exploration expenditure, the projects being subject to joint venture, or options for sale.

Duplex Hill South

Termant Creek Gold owns tenements and has previously entered into an option agreement to sell these tenements.

Kintoro Fast

Tennant Creek Gold holds tenements covering an area of 789 hectares north west of Kalgoorlie. Joint Venture partner, Mines and Resources Australia Pty Ltd (MRA) manage the project. MRA are not currently undertaking any significant exploration on this project.

McTavish

Tennant Creek Gold's interest is a 3% gross royalty.

Corporate & Investment Activities

Dividend

In February 2004 Tennant Creek Gold declared a fully franked dividend, satisfied by the issue of one share in Batavia Mining Limited for every ten Tennant Creek Gold shares held. The dividend payment equated to 1.25 cents per share.

Termant Creek Gold Acquisition

The acquisition of 100% of Tennant Creek Gold (NT) Pty Ltd was approved by shareholders and satisfied by the issue of 10 million ordinary fully paid shares. Settlement of the acquisition occurred in July 2004.

Batavia Mining Limited

The Company has been a significant shareholder in Batavia Mining Limited (BTV) as part of sponsoring the reconstruction of BTV and the subsequent re-listing on the Australian Stock Exchange.

During the year Tennant Creek Gold exercised its convertible note holding in BTV and also subsequently participated as sub underwriter as part of a rights issue undertaken by BTV. These transactions resulted in the Company's holding increasing to 20.004%. As a consequence the Company adopted equity accounting in the December quarter for its holding in BTV until the distribution of shares via the dividend in February 2004.

Shareholders have participated in two tax free distributions of BTV shares during the year. In July 2003 shareholders received shares in BTV on the basis of receiving one share in BTV for every one share held in the Company. This distribution met the de-merger rules under the income tax legislation meaning the distribution was tax free. The second distribution was via the fully franked dividend paid in February 2004. The total return to shareholders based on the value distributed equated to 7.25 cents per Tennant Creek Gold share.

At year end the Company held 30.6 million shares held at a cost of \$1,570,736 and a market value of \$2,303,792.

Statement of significant accounting policies $\mathbf{1}$

The significant accounting policies which have been adopted in the preparation of this financial report are:

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical costs and except where stated, does not take into account changing money values or fair values of non-current assets.

These accounting policies have been consistently applied by each entity in the consolidated entity and, except where there is a change in accounting policy are consistent with those of the previous year.

(b) Principles of consolidation

Controlled entities

The financial statements of controlled entities are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control commences until the date control ceases.

Associates

Associates are those entities, other than partnerships, over which the consolidated entity exercises significant influence and which are not intended for sale in the near future.

In the consolidated financial statements, investments in associates are accounted for using equity accounting principles. Investments in associates are carried at the lower of the equity accounted amount and recoverable amount. The consolidated entity's equity accounted share of the associates' net profit or loss is recognised in the consolidated statement of financial performance from the date significant influence commenced until the date significant influence ceased. Other movements in reserves are recognised directly in consolidated reserves.

Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Unrealised gains and losses and inter-entity balances resulting from transactions with or between controlled entities are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Unrealised gains resulting from transactions with associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the consolidated entity's interest. Unrealised gains relating to associates and joint venture entities are eliminated against the carrying amount of the investment. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, unless they evidence a recoverable amount impairment.

(c) Revenue recognition - Note 2

Revenues are recognised at fair value of the consideration received net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST) payable to the taxation authority. Exchanges of goods or services of the same nature and value without any cash consideration are not recognised as revenues.

Sale of goods and services

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised (net of returns, discounts and allowances) when control of the goods passes to the customer.

Revenue from services is recognised at the time the service is provided.

Interest revenue

Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset.

Sale of non-current assets

The gross proceeds of non-current asset sales are included as revenue at the date control of the asset passes to the buyer, usually when an unconditional contract of sale is signed.

The gain or loss on disposal is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset at the time of disposal and the net proceeds on disposal.

Dividends

Revenue from dividends from controlled entities is recognised by the parent entity when they are declared by the controlled entities.

Revenue from dividends from associates and other investments is recognised when dividends are received.

(d) Goods and services tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office (ATO), in these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.

(e) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings, amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with arrangement of borrowings and lease finance charges.

Ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings are capitalised and amortised over the life of the borrowings.

Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred unless they relate to qualifying asstes.

(f) Taxation - Note 5

The consolidated entity adopts the income statement liability method of tax effect accounting.

Income tax expense is calculated on operating profit adjusted for permanent differences between taxable and accounting income. The tax effect of timing differences, which arise from items being brought to account in different periods for income tax and accounting purposes, is carried forward in the statement of financial position as a future income tax benefit or a provision for deferred income tax.

Future income tax benefits are not brought to account unless realisation of the asset is assured beyond reasonable doubt. Future income tax benefits relating to tax losses are only brought to account when their realisation is virtually certain. The tax effects of capital losses are not recorded unless realisation is virtually certain.

Capital gains tax, if applicable, is provided for in establishing period income tax when an asset is sold.

Tax Consolidation

The Company is the head entity in the tax-consolidated group comprising all the Australian wholly-owned subsidiaries set out in Note 25. The implementation date for the tax-consolidated group is 1 July 2003. The head entity recognises all of the current and deferred tax assets and liabilities of the tax-consolidated group (after elimination of intragroup transactions).

(q) Acquisition of assets

All assets acquired including plant and equipment and intangibles other than goodwill are initially recorded at their cost of acquisition at the date of acquisition, being the fair value of the consideration provided plus incidental costs directly attributable to the acquisition.

When equity instruments are issued as consideration, their market price at the date of acquisition is used as fair value. Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity subject to the extent of proceeds received, otherwise expensed.

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable are recorded at their present value, discounted at the rate applicable to the Company if a similar borrowing were obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

Subsequent additional costs

Costs incurred on assets subsequent to initial acquisition are capitalised when it is probable that future economic benefits in excess of the originally assessed performance of the asset will flow to the consolidated entity in future years. Costs that do not meet the criteria for capitalisation are expensed as incurred.

(h) Receivables - Note 9

The collectibility of debts is assessed at balance date and specific provision is made for any doubtful accounts.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors to be settled within 60 days are carried at amounts due.

(i) Investments

Controlled entities

Investments in controlled entities are carried in the Company's financial statements at the lower of cost and recoverable amount.

Associates

In the Company's financial statements investments in associates are carried at lower of cost and recoverable amount.

Other entities

Investments in other listed and unlisted entities are carried at lower of cost and recoverable amount.

(i) Leased assets

Leases under which the Company or its controlled entities assume substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership are classified as finance leases. Other leases are classified as operating leases.

Operating leases

Payments made under operating leases are expensed on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, except where an alternative basis is more representative of the pattern of benefits to be derived from the leased property.

(k) Exploration expenditure

Exploration costs are accumulated in respect of each separate area of interest.

Exploration costs are carried forward where right of tenure of the area of interest is current and they are expected to be recouped through sale or successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or, where exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.

When an area of interest is abandoned or the Directors decide that it is not commercial, any accumulated costs in respect of that area are written off in the financial period the decision is made.

(i) Recoverable amount of non-current assets valued on cost basis

The carrying amounts of non-current assets valued on the cost basis, other than exploration expenditure carried forward (refer note 1(k)), are reviewed to determine whether they are in excess of their recoverable amount at balance date. If the carrying amount of a non-current asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to the lower amount. The write-down is expensed in the reporting period in which it occurs.

Where a group of assets working together supports the generation of cash inflows, recoverable amount is assessed in relation to that group of assets.

In assessing recoverable amounts of non-current assets the relevant cash flows have not been discounted to their present value, except where specifically stated.

(m) Depreciation and amortisation

Useful lives

All assets, including intangibles, have limited useful lives and are depreciated/amortised using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives, taking into account estimated residual values, with the exception of carried forward exploration costs in the production phase which is amortised on a units of production basis over the life of economically recoverable reserves and finance lease assets which are amortised over the term of the relevant lease or where it is likely the consolidated entity will obtain ownership of the asset, the life of the asset.

Assets are depreciated or amortised from the date of acquisition.

Amortisation is not charged on costs carried forward in respect of areas of interest in the development phase until commercial production commences.

Depreciation and amortisation rates and methods are reviewed annually for appropriateness. When changes are made, adjustments are reflected prospectively in current and future periods only. Depreciation and amortisation are expensed, except to the extent that they are included in the carrying amount of another asset as an allocation of production overheads.

The depreciation/amortisation rates for each class of assets are as follows:

	2004	2003
Property, plant and equipment	$\cdots$ 1.111
Leasehold improvements	$-33-50\%$	33-50%
Plant and equipment		20-40%
Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure
Production phase (units of production)	. 2.538t

(n) Payables

Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 60 days.

(o) Employee benefits

Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave and non monetary benefits

Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave represent present obligations resulting from employees' services provided to reporting date, calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the consolidated entity expects to pay as at reporting date including related on-costs.

Non-accumulating non-monetary benefits, such as interest free loans, are expensed based on the net marginal cost to the consolidated entity as the benefits are taken by the employees.

Employee share and option plans

Where shares or options are issued to employees as remuneration for past services, the difference between fair value of the shares or options issued and the consideration received, if any, from the employee is expensed. The fair value of the shares or options issued is recorded in contributed equity.

Other share or options issued to employees are recorded in contributed equity at the fair value of consideration received, if any.

Transactional costs associated with issuing shares and options are recognised in equity subject to the extent of the proceeds received, otherwise expensed. Other administrative costs are expensed.

Superannuation plans

The Company and controlled entities contribute to several defined contribution superannuation plans. Contributions are recognised as an expense as they are made.

(p) Joint ventures

The consolidated entity's interest in an unincorporated joint venture is brought to account by including its interest in the following amounts in the appropriate categories in the statement of financial position and statement of financial performance:

. each of the individual assets employed in the joint venture
liabilities incurred by the consolidated entity in relation to the joint venture and the liabilities for which it is jointly and/or severally liable
· expenses incurred in relation to the joint venture
· revenue from sale of output.

(q) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to members of the parent entity for the reporting period, after excluding any costs of servicing equity (other than ordinary shares and converting preference shares classified as ordinary shares for EPS calculation purposes), by the weighted average number of ordinary shares of the Company, adjusted for any bonus issue.

Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the basic EPS earnings, adjusted by the after tax effect of financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the effect on revenues and expenses of conversion to ordinary shares associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares adjusted for any bonus issue.

(r) Use and revision of accounting estimates

The preparation of the financial report requires the making of estimations and assumptions that affect the recognised amounts of assets, ilabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on best estimates and historical experience that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision only affects that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The ultimate recoupment of costs carried forward for exploration and evaluation phases is dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation or sale of the respective areas.

Valuation

An independent valuation was carried out in January 2000 by Continental Resource Management Pty Ltd and used the Prospectivity Enhancement Multiplier method, which is based on previous exploration expenditure and, in the case of Cawse Extended, the yardstick, or comparative deal method. The Cawse Extended valuation was also cross checked against the discounted insitu contained metal value of the tenement. The Directors are of the opinion that this basis provides a reasonable estimate of recoverable amount.

In June 2002 Continental Resource Management Pty Ltd provided an updated valuation of Cawse Extended. CRM concluded that the value of Cawse Extended falls within the range of \$4,800,000 to \$8,600,000, with a preferred value of \$7,200,000.

The commencement of mining at the Unicorn Pit at Cawse Extended represents a very positive step forward for this project. The Directors believe this further supports the carrying value of this asset.

The above available amounts are based on the balance of the dividend franking account at year-end adjusted for franking credits that the entity may be prevented from distributing in subsequent years.

The ability to utilise the franking credits is dependent upon there being sufficient available profits to declare the dividends.

Tax Consolidation legislation

On 1 July 2003, Tennant Creek Gold Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries adopted the Tax Consolidation legislation which requires a tax-consolidated group to keep a single franking account. The amount of franking credits available to shareholders of the parent entity (being the head entity in the tax-consolidated group) disclosed at 30 June 2004 has been measured under the new legislation as those available from the tax-consolidated group.

Resolution of matters arising from 1998

In the period September to December 1998 management control of Tennant Creek Gold was held by interests associated with Davis Samuel Pty Ltd (Davis Samuel). The Davis Samuel nominee directors committed Tennant Creek Gold to a series of transactions involving expenditure totalling \$1,526,000. The Australian Stock Exchange Ltd (ASX) ruled that the transactions required shareholder approval. Shareholders subsequently voted against approving the transactions.

In December 1998, Tennant Creek Gold entered into a settlement agreement with Davis Samuel and its directors which effectively provided for the repayment of the funds expended, and Tennant Creek Gold would in turn transfer its shares and options in Kanowna Lights Limited (the Kanowna Securities) to Davis Samuel.

The Commonwealth of Australia (the Commonwealth) in proceedings in the Supreme Court of the Australian Capital Territory claimed that it was entitled to a constructive trust over the Kanowna Securities and obtained an injunction preventing Tennant Creek Gold from selling or otherwise disposing of them. The Commonwealth has claimed that as constructive trustee, the Commonwealth claims Ternant Creek Gold is liable to account for the market value of the shares at the time they were acquired. The Commonwealth qave an undertaking as to damages.

Subsequently, in September 1999, Davis Samuel purported to rescind the December 1998 Settlement Agreement.

The Commonwealth is on notice that if Tennant Creek Gold suffers damages as a result of the Commonwealth's injunction, and the Commonwealth ultimately fails to prove its constructive trust claim, Tennant Creek Gold will claim the damages from the Commonwealth.

Legal action against Davis Samuel

Tennant Creek Gold, as a party to the proceedings instituted by the Commonwealth, issued cross-claims against Davis Samuel and several other parties including Messrs Allan Endresz, Peter Cain, William Forge, David Muir and Peter Clark.

In July 2001 Messrs William Forge, David Muir and Peter Clark were charged in relation to offences under the Corporations Law of Western Australia relating to the October 1998 transactions, pursuant to which Tennant Creek Gold expended \$1,526,000. In March 2004 Messrs Forge & Clarke were convicted and sentenced on charges of making improper use of their positions as company directors.

Termant Creek Gold made an application to the Court for a reparation order to be made against Mr Forge and Mr Clark however the Court declined to make a reparation order.

24 Deed of cross guarantee

Pursuant to ASIC Class Order 98/1418 (as amended) dated 13 August 1998 the wholly owned subsidiaries listed below are relieved from the Corporations Act 2001 requirements for preparation, audit and lodgement of financial reports and directors reports.

It is a condition of the Class Order that the Company and each of the subsidiaries enter into a Deed of Cross Guarantee. The effect of the Deed is that the Company quarantees to each creditor payment in full of any debt in the event of winding up of any of the subsidiaries under certain provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. If a winding up occurs under other provisions of the Acr 2001, the Company will only be liable in the event that after six months any creditor has not been paid in full. The subsidiaries have also given similar guarantees in the event that the Company is wound up.

The subsidiaries subject to the Deed are Connaught Mining NL and Enigma Mining Limited.

In accordance with the terms of the Class Order a consolidated statement of financial performance and consolidated statement of financial position comprising the entities that are party to the Deed should be disclosed.

A consolidated statement of financial performance and consolidated statement of financial position, comprising the Company and subsidiaries which are a party to the Deed, after eliminating all transactions between parties to the Deed of Cross Guarantee, at 30 June 2004 is set out on the following page.

26 Investments accounted for using the equity method

Details of investments in associates

On 9 September 2003 the Company exercised its convertible note holding in Batavia Mining Limited (BTV) which increased its shareholding to 20.9%. As at 31 December 2003 the Company held 20.9% interest in BTV and had 2 directors on the Board. As a consequence the Company adopted equity accounting in accordance with AASB 1016.

The use of the equity method was discontinued from 13 February 2004 in respect of the consolidated entity's interest in Batavia Mining Limited due to the inability of the consolidated entity to exercise significant influence over the company. The carrying amount of the investment at that date, being \$1,570,736 has been recorded as its cost going forward.

Equity-based plans

Employee share option plan

All options were previously issued under the Hallmark Incentive Option Scheme. These options expired on 30 June 2004. This scheme has been replaced by the Tennant Creek Gold Limited 2004 Employee and Consultant Option Scheme, approved by shareholders on 1 July 2004.

Each option is convertible to one ordinary share. The exercise price of the options are determined in accordance with the rules of the plan, but shall be not less than 80% of the weighted average price of the Company's shares traded during the five business days preceding the date of granting the option.

All options expire on the earlier of their expiry date or termination of the employee's or Director's relationship with the Company or a subsidiary, other than by reason of death, retirement or retrenchment of that participant.

International Financial Reporting Standards

This financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and other financial reporting requirements (Australian GAAP). The difference between Australian GAAP and IFRS identified to date as potentially having a significant effect on the

32 Events subsequent to balance date (continued)

consolidated entity's financial performance and financial position are summarised below. The summary should not be taken as an exhaustive list of all the differences between Australian GAAP and IFRS. No attempt has been made to identify all disclosure, presentation or classification differences that would affect the manner in which transactions or events are presented.

The consolidated entity has not quantified the effects of the differences discussed below. Accordingly, there can be no assurances that the consolidated financial performance and financial position as disclosed in this financial report would not be significantly different if determined in accordance with IFRS.

Regulatory bodies that promulgate Australian GAAP and IFRS have significant ongoing projects that could affect the difference between Australian GAAP and IFRS described below and the impact of these differences relative to the consolidated entity's financial reports in the future. The potential impacts on the consolidated entity's financial performance and financial position of the adoption of IFRS, including system upgrades and other implementation costs which may be incurred have not been quantified as at the transition date of 1 July 2004 due to the short timeframe between finalisation of the IFRS standards and the date of preparing this report. The impact on future years will depend on the particular circumstances prevailing in those years.

The board has established a formal project, to achieve transition to IFRS reporting, beginning with the half-year ended 31 December 2005. The Company's implementation project consists of three phases as described below.

Assessment and planning phase

The assessment and planning phase aims to produce a high level overview of the impacts of conversion to IFRS reporting on existing accounting and reporting policies and procedures, systems and processes, business structures and staff.

This phase includes:

high level identification of the key differences in accounting policies and disclosures that are expected to arise from adopting IFRS
assessment of new information requirements affecting management information systems, as well as the impact on the business and its key processes
evaluation of the implications for staff, for example training requirements
preparation of a conversion plan for expected changes to accounting policies, reporting structures, systems, accounting and business processes and staff training.

The Company considers the assessment and planning phase to be complete in most respects as at 30 June 2004.

Design phase

The design phase aims to formulate the changes required to existing accounting policies and procedures and systems and processes in order to transition to IFRS. The design phase will incorporate:

formulating revised accounting policies and procedures for compliance with IFRS requirements
identifying potential financial impacts as at the transition date and for subsequent reporting periods prior to adoption of IFRS
developing revised IFRS disclosures
designing accounting and business processes to support IFRS reporting obligations
identifying and planning required changes to financial reporting and business source systems
developing training programs for staff.

The design phase is expected to be completed during the upcoming financial year.

Implementation Phase

The implementation phase will include implementation of identified changes to accounting and business procedures, processes and systems and operational training for staff. It will enable the Company to generate the required disclosures of AASB 1 as it progresses through its transition to IFRS.

Except for certain training that has been given to operational staff, the Company has not yet commenced the implementation phase.

The Company expects IFRS conversion to be substantially complete by 30 June 2005.

The key potential implications of the conversion to IFRS on the consolidated entity are as follows:

financial instruments must be recognised in the statement of financial position and most financial assets must be carried at fair value
income tax will be calculated based on the "balance sheet" approach, which will result in more deferred tax assets and liabilities and, as tax effects follow the underlying transaction, some tax effects will be recognised in equity
changes in accounting policies will be recognised by restating comparatives rather than making current year adjustments with note disclosure of prior year effects
the accounting policy in relation to exploration and development expenditure cannot be determined until finalisation of the relevant accounting standard and therefore it is not possible to identify whether there will be a significant impact on the financial statements as a result of the move to IFRS.
1 In the opinion of the Directors of Tennant Creek Gold Limited:
(a) the financial statements and notes, set out on pages 16 to 46, are in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
- (i) giving a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company and consolidated entity as at 30 June 2004 and of their performance, as represented by the results of their operations and their cash flows, for the year ended on that date; and
- (ii) complying with Accounting Standards in Australia and the Corporations Regulations 2001; and
(b) there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable.
2 There are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company and the subsidiaries identified in Note 25 will be able to meet any obligations or liabilities to which they are or may become subject to by virtue of the Deed of Cross Guarantee between the Company and those subsidiaries pursuant to ASIC Class Order 98/1418.

Signed in accordance with a resolution of the Directors:

gegen

John W Barr Chairman 21 September 2004.

Scope

The financial report and directors' responsibility

The financial report comprises the statement of financial position, statement of financial performance, statement of cash flows, accompanying notes to the financial statements, and the directors' declaration for both Tennant Creek Gold Limited (the "Company") and the Tennant Creek Gold Group (the "Consolidated Entity"), for the year ended 30 June 2004. The Consolidated Entity comprises both the Company and the entities it controlled during that year.

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and true and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001. This includes responsibility for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and internal controls that are designed to prevent and detect fraud and error, and for the accounting policies and accounting estimates inherent in the financial report.

Audit approach

We conducted an independent audit in order to express an opinion to the members of the Company. Our audit was conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards in order to provide reasonable assurance as to whether the financial report is free of material misstatement. The nature of an audit is influenced by factors such as the use of professional judgement, selective testing, the inherent limitations of internal control, and the availability of persuasive rather than conclusive evidence. Therefore, an audit cannot quarantee that all material misstatements have been detected.

We performed procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report presents fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia, a view which is consistent with our understanding of the Company's and the Consolidated Entity's financial position, and of their performance as represented by the results of their operations and cash flows.

We formed our audit opinion on the basis of these procedures, which included:

examining, on a test basis, information to provide evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial report, and
assessing the appropriateness of the accounting policies and disclosures used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors.

While we considered the effectiveness of management's internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our audit was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls.

Independence

In conducting our audit, we followed applicable independence requirements of Australian professional ethical pronouncements and the Corporations Act 2001.

Audit opinion

In our opinion, the financial report of Tennant Creek Gold Limited is in accordance with:

a) the Corporations Act 2001, including:
i. giving a true and fair view of the Company's and Consolidated Entity's financial position as at 30 June 2004 and of their performance for the financial year ended on that date; and
ĬĹ complying with Accounting Standards in Australia and the Corporations Regulations 2001; and
b) other mandatory professional reporting requirements in Australia.
