Review of Operations 

Principal Activities 
The  principal  activities  of  the  Company  are  mineral  exploration  in  Utah,  USA.  The  Company  is  exploring  the  highly 
prospective Frisco project located in Beaver County, Utah, for copper, gold, zinc and associated minerals. 

The Company secured the mineral rights to the Frisco Project over two years and became the first company to hold the 
mineral rights over the entire Frisco complex. 

The Frisco Project is believed to comprise a large mineralised porphyry system that occurs across an area of approximately 
7km  by  4km.  Historical  mining  activities  focused  on  extensive  outcropping  breccia  pipes  (Cactus  prospect)  and  skarns 
(Accrington & Horn prospect) associated with underlying porphyry system/s recently identified by Alderan at the Cactus 
Canyon prospect. 

Historical exploration across the Frisco project has targeted each of the specific styles of mineralisation present – skarn, 
intrusive breccia, porphyry and carbonate replacement, with exploration often limited to specific areas within the Frisco area 
due to title constraints. 

Summary of activities during the year 
Company exploration activities during the first half of the financial year to December 2016 were focused on field mapping 
and  a  rock  chip  sampling  program  over  the  Accrington,  Cactus  Breccia  Pipe  and  Cactus  Canyon  areas,  as  well  as  a 
geochemical sampling program at Accrington, in order to define high priority drill targets. 

In  June  2017  the  Company  announced  the  commencement  of  a  geophysics  exploration  program  including  induced 
polarisation (IP) and an electromagnetic (EM) survey at the Frisco project. Alderan engaged Dias Geophysics to conduct a 
high  definition  IP  survey  over  the  entire  Frisco  Project  area  and  an  EM  survey  over  the  Accrington  copper-zinc  skarn 
prospect.  

Subsequent to the financial year end in July 2017 the Company announced the expansion of its holdings over the Frisco 
Project through the acquisition of a third-party interest in the ‘Imperial’  Claims. The Company also staked a 118 further 
claims and entered into a lease agreement with the owners of 44 patented claims which abut the Frisco Project to the north.   

These new claims and lease will cover areas of historical mining activity which are prospective for carbonate hosted base 
and precious metals. 

In August 2017 the Company completed a review of historic channel sampling results from the historic Cactus Mine has 
confirmed strong results including 21.5m @ 6.11% Cu and 32.5m @ 3.85% Cu. 
Highlights of the historical channel sampling include: 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

21.5m @ 6.1% Cu 
32.5m @ 3.8% Cu 
34.1m @ 2.7% Cu 
32.2m @ 2.4% Cu 
40.5m @ 1.8% Cu 
83m @ 1.2% Cu 

These  channel  sample  results  were  reported  as  what  Alderan  believes  are  “averages” of  closely spaced  or continuous 
sampling and are “historical ” and “foreign” and were initially published by Rosario Exploration Company in 1968-69; they 
are  not  able  to  be  fully  reported  in  accordance  with  the  JORC  Code.  A  full  list  of  the  results  (and  associated  JORC 
disclosures) are provided in the ASX release dated 21 August 2017.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

A  maiden  diamond  drilling  program  is  expected  to  commence  in  September  2017,  once  final  regulatory  approvals  are 
received, IP surveys in the area are complete and the results have been analysed. Drilling is expected to start at the Cactus 
Breccia Pipe. 

Dividends 
There were no dividends paid, recommended or declared during the year. 

Significant events during the year

in prior years. 

On 22 June 2016, the Board of Directors approved the issue of 400,000 ordinary shares to Belgrave Capital Management 
Limited at $0.05 per share (pre share split) amounting to $20,000 in accordance with the convertible loan agreement dated

credit  loan  facility  of  $100,000  to  $55,000  plus  6% interest  per  annum.  The  reduction of  this  value  was applied  toward 
exercise of options at $0.10 per share (pre share split). 

On  1  September  2016,  Quaalup  gave  notice  to  the  Company  of  its  intention  to  exercise  1,000,000  options  to  acquire 
1,000,000 shares at $0.10 per share (pre share split). Part consideration for the option exercise was the reduction in the 
loan facility as detailed above. Accordingly, Quaalup was issued 1,000,000 shares in the Company.

The shareholders of the Company approved a share split resolution, where each existing ordinary share will be split into 
three and a half (3.5) ordinary shares with effect from 1 December 2016.  As a result of the share split, 15,789,688 shares 
issued  prior  and  up  to  1  December  2016  were  converted  to  55,263,908  shares.  The  share  split  did  not  change  any 
shareholder’s percentage ownership in the Company. 

On 23 December 2016, the Board of Directors approved an offer of shares to seed investors to raise up to $1,200,000 at a 
price of $0.12 per share to advance the Group’s mineral properties in Utah, USA and to undertake an Initial Public Offering

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (continued 

Remuneration Policy 
The  Company’s  remuneration  policy  for  its  KMP  has  been  developed  by  the  Board  taking  into  account  the  size  of  the 
Company, the size of the management team, the nature and stage of development of the Company’s current operations, 
and market conditions and comparable salary levels for companies of a similar size and operating in similar sectors. 

In addition to considering the above general factors, the Board has also placed emphasis on the following specific issues 
in determining the remuneration policy for KMP: 

- 
- 

Exploration results; and 
The performance of the Company’s shares as quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange. 

Remuneration Committee 
Due to the current size of the Company, the Board did not implement a Remuneration Committee during the year, as such 
the Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the 
Directors and the executive team. 

Remuneration structure 
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive Director and executive remuneration 
is separate and distinct. 

Non-executive Director Remuneration 
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain 
Directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders. 

The ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive Directors shall be determined from time 
to time by a general meeting.  The Constitution states that the Company may pay to the Non-Executive Directors a maximum 
total amount of director's fees, determined by the Company in general meeting, or until so determined, as the Directors 
resolve.  The Company intends to put to shareholders at the upcoming Annual General Meeting an aggregate remuneration 
amount to approve. 

Fees for the Non-Executive Directors’ are presently set at $250,000 per annum including superannuation. These fees cover 
main board activities only. Non-Executive Directors may receive additional remuneration for other services provided to the 
Company.  

The Non-Executive salary remuneration became effective from the date of their appointment as Non-Executive Directors.  
There  were  also  Company  Options  issued  to  Non-Executive  Directors  in  line  with  Company  policy  to  attract  suitable 
candidates to the position. 

Executive Remuneration 
The Company’s remuneration policy is to provide a fixed remuneration component and a short and long term performance 
based component.  The Board believes that this remuneration policy is appropriate given the considerations discussed in 
the section above and is appropriate in aligning executives’ objectives with shareholder and business objectives. 

Fixed Remuneration 
Fixed remuneration consists of base salaries, as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds and other non-
cash benefits.  Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board. The process consists of a review of company and 
individual  performance,  relevant  comparative  remuneration  externally  and  internally  and,  where  appropriate,  external 
advice on policies and practices. 

Performance Based Remuneration – Short Term Incentive 
The Board has not implemented a system where Executives are entitled to annual cash bonuses. No bonuses were paid 
or are payable in relation to the 2017 financial year.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (continued) 

Performance Based Remuneration – Long Term Incentive 

Company Options 
The  Board  has  previously  chosen  to  issue  Options  (where  appropriate)  to  some  executives  and  employees  as  a  key 
component of the incentive portion of their remuneration, in order to attract and retain the services of the executives and to 
provide an incentive linked to the performance of the Company.   

The Board may grant Options to executives and key consultants with exercise prices at and/or above market share price 
(at  the  time  of  agreement).    As  such,  Incentive  Options  granted  to  executives  will  generally  only  be  of  benefit  if  the 
executives perform to the level whereby the value of the Company increases sufficiently to warrant exercising the Incentive 
Options granted. Other than service-based vesting conditions, there are no additional performance criteria on the Incentive 
Options granted to executives, as given the speculative nature of the Company’s activities and the small management team 
responsible  for  its  running,  it  is  considered  the  performance  of  the  executives  and  the  performance  and  value  of  the 
Company  are  closely  related.  The  Company  prohibits  executives  entering  into  arrangements  to  limit  their  exposure  to 
Incentive Options granted as part of their remuneration package. 

Long-Term Incentive Plan 
The Company has implemented a Long-Term Incentive Plan.  Under the Plan, the Company may grant options to subscribe 
for Shares or performance rights entitling the holder to be issued Shares on terms and conditions set by the Board at its 
discretion. 

The material terms of the Plan are as follows: 

(a) The purpose of the Plan are: 

(i) 
(ii) 

(iii) 

assist in the reward, retention and motivation of eligible persons; 
to align the interests of eligible persons more closely with the interests of shareholders, by providing an 
opportunity for eligible persons receive an equity interest in the form of Awards; and 
to  provide  eligible  persons  with  the  opportunity  to  share  in  any  future  growth  in  value  of  Alderan 
Resiources. 

(b) The following persons can participate in the Plan if the Board makes them an offer to do so: 

(i) 
(ii) 
(iii) 
(iv) 

a director; 
a full-time or part-time employee;  
a contractor; or 
a casual employee 

of the Company or an associated body corporate and includes a person who may become an eligible person within 
(i) to (iv) above subject to accepting an offer of engagement for that role. 

(c) Plan Options and Plan Rights (collectively Awards) issued under the Plan are subject to the terms and conditions set 
out in the Rules, which include: 

(i) 

(ii) 

(iii) 

Vesting Conditions – which are time-based criteria, requirements or conditions (as specified in the offer 
and determined by the Board) which must be met prior to Awards vesting in a participant, which the Board 
may  throughout  the  course  of  the  period  between  the  grant  of  an  Award  and  its  vesting,  waive  or 
accelerate as the Board considers reasonably appropriate; 
Performance Conditions – which are conditions relating to the performance of the Group and its related 
bodies corporate (and the manner in which those conditions will be tested) as specified in an offer and 
determined by the Board; and 
Exercise Conditions – which are criteria, requirements or conditions, as determined by the Board or under 
the  Plan,  which  must  be  met  (notwithstanding  the  satisfaction  of  any  Vesting  Conditions  and/or 
Performance Conditions) prior to a Participant being entitled to exercise vested Awards in accordance 
with clauses 8 and 9. 

(d) In accordance with ASIC Class Order 14/1000, the total Awards that may be issued under the Plan will not exceed 5% 
of the total number of Shares on issue. In calculating this limit, Awards issued to participants under the Plan other than in 
reliance upon this Class Order are discounted. 

(e) The Board has the unfettered and absolute discretion to administer the Plan. 

(f) Awards issued under the Plan are not transferable and will not be quoted on the ASX. 

The Rules otherwise contain terms and conditions considered standard for long-term incentive plan rules of this nature.  
There  were  1,100,000  options  issued  under  the  Long-Term  Incentive  Plan  during  the  year  (2016:  Nil).    There  were  no 
shares issued under the Long-Term Incentive Plan during the year (2016: Nil).

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (continued) 

Relationship between Remuneration of KMP and Shareholder Wealth and Earnings 
The Board anticipates that the Company will retain earnings (if any) and other cash resources for the development of its 
exploration projects.  The Company does not currently have a policy with respect to the payment of dividends and returns 
of capital however this will be reviewed on an annual basis. Therefore, there was no relationship between the Board’s policy 
for determining, or in relation to, the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP and dividends paid and returns of capital 
by the Company during the current and previous four financial years. 

The Company did not consider appreciation of the Company’s shares when setting remuneration. 

The Board did issue Options to Key Management Personnel and has implemented a Long-Term Incentive Plan which will 
generally be of value if the Company’s shares appreciate over time.  However, it should be noted that all Director Options 
have  been  imposed  in  escrow  (sale)  restriction  period  of  up  to  two  years.  This  is  in  line  with  the  Company  policy  that 
Company Options be used for long term incentive for Directors.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF OFFICERS 
The Constitution of the Company requires the Company, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify any person who is or 
has  been  a  director  or  officer  of  the  Company  for  any  liability  caused  as such  a  director  or  officer  and  any  legal  costs 
incurred by a director or officer in defending an action for any liability caused as such a director or officer. 

During  or  since  the  end  of  the  financial  year,  no  amounts  have  been  paid  by  the  Company  in  relation  to  the  above 
indemnities. 

During the financial year, insurance premiums were paid by the Company to insure against a liability incurred by a person 
who is or has been a director or officer of the Company or Company.   

INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE OF AUDITOR 
The Company has not, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the 
Company or any related entity against a liability incurred by the auditor. 

During the financial year, the Company has not paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the auditor of the Company

In addition to the above meetings, the board executed 16 circular resolutions during the year. 

PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY  
No person has applied for leave of court to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company or intervene in any proceedings to 
which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or any part of those 
proceedings. 

NON-AUDIT SERVICES 
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor 
are outlined in note 20 to the financial statements. 

The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another 
person or firm on the auditor's behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by 
the Corporations Act 2001. 

The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 20 to the financial statements do not compromise the 
external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: 

(a)  all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity 

and objectivity of the auditor; and 

(b)  none  of  the  services  undermine  the  general  principles  relating  to  auditor  independence  as  set  out  in 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical 
Standards  Board,  including  reviewing  or  auditing  the  auditor's  own  work,  acting  in  a  management  or 
decision-making  capacity  for  the  company,  acting  as  advocate  for  the  company  or  jointly  sharing 
economic risks and rewards. 

OFFICERS OF THE COMPANY WHO ARE FORMER PARTNERS OF RSM AUSTRALIA PARTNERS 
There are no officers of the Company who are former partners of RSM Australia Partners.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Basis of preparation 

These  consolidated  financial  statements  are  general  purpose  financial  statements,  which  have  been  prepared  in 
accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations and comply with 
other requirements of the law. 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Alderan Resources Limited (the “Company”) 
and  its  subsidiary  (collectively  referred  to  as  the  “Group”  or  “consolidated  entity”).  For  the  purposes  of  preparing  the 
consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity. 

The accounting policies detailed below have been consistently applied to all of the years presented unless otherwise stated.  

The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis.  Historical cost is based on the fair values of the 
consideration given in exchange for goods and services. 

Adoption of new and revised standards 
Standards and Interpretations applicable to 30 June 2017 
For the year ended 30 June 2017, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations 
issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current annual reporting period.   

As a result of this review, the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards 
and Interpretations on the Company and, therefore, no material change is necessary to Company accounting policies. 

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted 
A number of Australian Accounting Standards that have been issued or amended but are not yet effective have not been 
adopted  by  the  Company  for  the  annual  reporting  period  ended  30  June  2017.  The  effect  of  these  new  or  amended 
Accounting Standards is expected to give rise to additional disclosures and new policies being adopted. Refer below for 
the Standards relevant to the Company that are not yet effective and have not been early adopted.  

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard replaces all 
previous  versions  of  AASB  9  and  completes  the  project  to  replace  IAS  39  'Financial  Instruments:  Recognition  and 
Measurement'. AASB 9 introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets. A financial asset shall 
be measured at amortised cost, if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect 
contractual cash flows, which arise on specified dates and solely principal and interest. All other financial instrument assets 
are to be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss unless the entity makes an irrevocable election on 
initial recognition to present gains and losses on equity instruments (that are not held-for-trading) in other comprehensive 
income ('OCI'). For financial liabilities, the standard requires the portion of the change in fair value that relates to the entity's 
own credit risk to be presented in OCI (unless it would create an accounting mismatch). New simpler hedge accounting 
requirements are intended to more closely align the accounting treatment with the risk management activities of the entity. 
New impairment requirements will use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognise an allowance. Impairment will 
be measured under a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly 
since  initial  recognition  in  which  case  the  lifetime  ECL  method  is  adopted.  The  standard  introduces  additional  new 
disclosures. The company has made an assessment and determined that this standard will have little to no impact on the 
entity as it does not have any financial instruments. 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard provides a 
single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict 
the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity 
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either written, verbal 
or  implied)  to  be  identified,  together  with  the  separate  performance  obligations  within  the  contract;  determine  the 
transaction  price,  adjusted  for  the  time  value  of  money  excluding  credit  risk;  allocation  of  the  transaction  price  to  the 
separate  performance  obligations  on  a  basis  of  relative  stand-alone  selling  price  of  each  distinct  good  or  service,  or 
estimation approach if no distinct observable prices exist; and recognition of revenue when each performance obligation 
is  satisfied.  Credit  risk  will  be  presented  separately  as  an  expense  rather  than  adjusted  to  revenue.  For  goods,  the 
performance obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. For services, the performance 
obligation is satisfied when the service has been provided, typically for promises to transfer services to customers.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

Adoption of new and revised standards (continued) 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (continued) 
For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an appropriate measure of progress to determine 
how  much  revenue  should  be  recognised  as  the  performance  obligation  is  satisfied.  Contracts  with  customers  will  be 
presented in an entity's statement of financial position as a contract liability, a contract asset, or a receivable, depending 
on the relationship between the entity's performance and the customer's payment. Sufficient quantitative and qualitative 
disclosure  is  required  to  enable  users  to  understand  the  contracts  with  customers;  the  significant  judgments  made  in 
applying the guidance to those contracts; and any assets recognised from the costs to obtain or fulfil a contract with a 
customer. The company has made an assessment and determined that this standard will have little to no impact on the 
entity as it currently does not earn revenue. 

AASB 16 Leases 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces AASB 
117 'Leases' and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Subject to exceptions, 
a  'right-of-use'  asset  will  be  capitalised  in  the  statement  of  financial  position,  measured  at  the  present  value  of  the 
unavoidable  future lease  payments  to  be made  over  the  lease  term.  The  exceptions  relate  to  short-term  leases  of  12 
months or less and leases of low-value assets (such as personal computers and small office furniture) where an accounting 
policy choice exists whereby either a 'right-of-use' asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to profit or loss as 
incurred. A liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease 
incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, removal or dismantling costs. 
Straight-line operating lease expense recognition will be replaced with a depreciation charge for the leased asset (included 
in  operating  costs)  and  an  interest  expense  on  the  recognised  lease  liability  (included  in  finance  costs).  In  the  earlier 
periods  of  the  lease,  the  expenses  associated  with  the  lease  under  AASB  16  will  be  higher  when  compared  to  lease 
expenses under AASB 117. However EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results will 
be improved as the operating expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss under AASB 16. 
For classification within the statement of cash flows, the lease payments will be separated into both a principal (financing 
activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities) component. For lessor accounting, the standard does not 
substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases. The Company will adopt this standard from 1 July 2019 and the 
impact of its adoption is being assessed by the Company. 

Statement of compliance 

The financial report was authorised for issued in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 26 September 2017.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

Significant accounting judgments and key estimates 

The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values 
of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are 
based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these 
estimates.  

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in 
which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision 
affects both current and future periods. 

Share-based payment transactions 
The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of 
the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using either the Binomial or 
Black-Scholes  model  taking  into  account  the  terms  and  conditions  upon  which  the  instruments  were  granted.  The 
accounting  estimates  and  assumptions  relating  to  equity-settled  share-based  payments  would  have  no  impact  on  the 
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. 

Exploration and Evaluation 
Exploration  and  evaluation  costs  have  been  capitalised  on  the  basis  that  the  Company  will  commence  commercial 
production in the future, from which time the costs will be amortised in proportion to the depletion of the mineral resources. 
Key judgements are applied in considering costs to be capitalised which includes determining expenditures directly related 
to these activities and allocating overheads between those that are expensed and capitalised. In addition, costs are only 
capitalised that are expected to be recovered either through successful development or sale of the relevant mining interest. 
Factors that could impact the future commercial production at the mine include the level of reserves and resources, future 
technology changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes and changes in commodity prices. To the 
extent that capitalised costs are determined not to be recoverable in the future, they will be written off in the period in which 
this determination is made 

Parent entity information 
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. 
Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 19. 

Principles of consolidation 
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Alderan Resources Limited 
('company'  or  'parent  entity')  as  at  30  June  2017  and  the  results  of  all  subsidiaries  for  the  year  then  ended.  Alderan 
Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'Group'. 

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the group entity has control. The group entity controls an entity when the 
consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to 
affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date 
on which control is transferred to the group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. 

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the group are eliminated. 
Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. 
Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted 
by the group.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

Principles of consolidation (continued) 
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, 
without  the  loss  of  control,  is  accounted  for  as  an  equity  transaction,  where  the  difference  between  the  consideration 
transferred  and  the  book  value  of  the  share  of  the  non-controlling  interest  acquired  is  recognised  directly  in  equity 
attributable to the parent. 

Where the group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling 
interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The group recognises 
the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in 
profit or loss. 

Foreign currency translation 
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Group's functional and presentation currency. 

Foreign currency transactions 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the 
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation 
at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in 
profit or loss. 

Foreign operations 
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting 
date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average exchange 
rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences 
are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity. 

The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of. 

Revenue recognition 
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the group and the revenue can be reliably 
measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. 

Other revenue 
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. 

Income tax 
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable 
income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary 
differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when 
the assets  are  recovered  or  liabilities are settled,  based on  those  tax  rates  that  are enacted or substantively  enacted, 
except for: 

  When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability 
in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction,  affects neither the 
accounting nor taxable profits; or 

  When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, 
and the timing of the reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse 
in the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

Income tax (continued) 
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred 
tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for 
the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is 
probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against 
current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority 
on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. 

Current and non-current classification 
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. 

An  asset  is  classified  as  current  when:  it  is  either  expected  to  be  realised  or  intended  to  be  sold  or  consumed  in  the 
consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 
12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or 
used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. 

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; 
it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no 
unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities 
are classified as non-current. 

Cash and cash equivalents 
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly 
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and 
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 

Trade and other receivables 
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective 
interest method, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. 

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written 
off by reducing the carrying amount directly. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is raised when there is objective 
evidence  that  the  consolidated  entity  will  not  be  able  to  collect  all  amounts  due  according  to  the  original  terms  of  the 
receivables.  

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment. 

Investments and other financial assets 
Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the 
initial  measurement,  except  for  financial  assets at  fair  value  through profit  or  loss.  They  are  subsequently measured  at 
either amortised cost or fair value depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on the purpose of 
the acquisition and subsequent reclassification to other categories is restricted. 

Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have 
been transferred and the consolidated entity has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

Investments and other financial assets (continued) 

Loans and receivables 
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an 
active market. They are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised 
in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. 

The amount of the impairment allowance for loans and receivables carried at amortised cost is the difference between the 
asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest 
rate. If there is a reversal of impairment, the reversal cannot exceed the amortised cost that would have been recognised 
had the impairment not been made and is reversed to profit or loss. 

Plant and equipment 
Plant  and equipment is stated  at  historical cost  less  accumulated  depreciation and  impairment.  Historical cost includes 
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. 

Depreciation is calculated on a diminishing value basis to write off the net cost of each item of plant and equipment over 
their expected useful lives as follows: 

Office equipment   

50% per annum 

The residual  values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting 
date. 

An  item  of  plant  and  equipment  is  derecognised  upon  disposal  or  when  there  is  no  future  economic  benefit  to  the 
consolidated entity. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. 
Any revaluation surplus reserve relating to the item disposed of is transferred directly to retained profits. 

Exploration and evaluation assets 
Exploration  and evaluation  expenditure  in  relation  to  separate  areas  of  interest  for  which rights  of  tenure  are  current  is 
carried forward as an asset in the statement of financial position where it is expected that the expenditure will be recovered 
through  the  successful  development  and  exploitation  of  an  area  of  interest,  or  by  its  sale;  or  exploration  activities  are 
continuing in an area  and  activities  have not  reached  a stage  which  permits  a  reasonable  estimate  of  the  existence  or 
otherwise  of  economically  recoverable  reserves.  Where  a  project  or  an  area  of  interest  has  been  abandoned,  the 
expenditure incurred thereon is written off in the year in which the decision is made. 

Trade and other payables 
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial 
year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. 
The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. 

Borrowings 
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They 
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, the 
loans or borrowings are classified as non-current. 

Issued capital 
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. 

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, 
from the proceeds. 

Discontinued operations 
A discontinued operation is a component of the consolidated entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for 
sale  and  that  represents  a  separate  major  line  of  business  or  geographical  area  of  operations,  is  part  of  a  single  co-
ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a 
view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately on the face of the statement of profit or 
loss and other comprehensive income.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

Business combinations 
The  acquisition  method  of  accounting  is  used  to  account  for  business  combinations  regardless  of  whether  equity 
instruments or other assets are acquired. 

The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments 
issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest 
in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value 
or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred to profit 
or loss. 

On the acquisition of a business, the consolidated entity assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for 
appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the consolidated 
entity's operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date. 

Where the business combination is achieved in stages, the consolidated entity remeasures its previously held equity interest 
in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount 
is recognised in profit or loss. 

Contingent  consideration  to  be  transferred  by  the  acquirer  is  recognised  at  the  acquisition-date  fair  value.  Subsequent 
changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability is recognised in profit or loss. 
Contingent  consideration  classified  as  equity  is  not  remeasured  and  its  subsequent  settlement  is  accounted  for  within 
equity. 

The  difference  between  the  acquisition-date  fair  value  of  assets  acquired,  liabilities  assumed  and  any  non-controlling 
interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre-existing investment 
in the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair 
value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a 
gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and 
measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred 
and the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquirer. 

Business combinations are initially accounted for on a provisional basis. The acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional 
amounts  recognised  and  also  recognises  additional  assets  or  liabilities  during  the  measurement  period,  based  on  new 
information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition-date. The measurement period ends 
on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the information 
possible to determine fair value. 

Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes 
Revenues,  expenses  and  assets  are  recognised  net  of  the amount  of  associated  GST,  unless  the  GST  incurred is  not 
recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part 
of the expense. 

Receivables  and  payables  are  stated  inclusive  of  the  amount  of  GST  receivable  or  payable.  The  net  amount  of  GST 
recoverable  from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of 
financial position. 

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities 
which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows. 

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority. 

Leases 
The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and 
requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets 
and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. 

A distinction is made between finance leases, which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the 
risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of leased assets, and operating leases, under which the lessor effectively 
retains substantially all such risks and benefits.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017 

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

Leases (continued) 
Finance leases are capitalised. A lease asset and liability are established at the fair value of the leased assets, or if lower, 
the present value of minimum lease payments. Lease payments are allocated between the principal component of the 
lease liability and the finance costs, so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. 

Leased assets acquired under a finance lease are depreciated over the asset's useful life or over the shorter of the asset's 
useful life and the lease term if there is no reasonable certainty that the consolidated entity will obtain ownership at the 
end of the lease term. 

Operating lease payments, net of any incentives received from the lessor, are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line 
basis over the term of the lease. 

Share-based payments 
Equity-settled  and  cash-settled  share-based  compensation  benefits  are  provided  to  employees  and  key  management 
personnel. 

Equity-settled  transactions  are  awards  of  shares,  or  options  over  shares  that  are  provided  to  employees  and  key 
management personnel in exchange for the rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the 
exchange of services, where the amount of cash is determined by reference to the share price. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined 
using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the 
option,  the  impact  of  dilution,  the  share  price  at  grant  date  and  expected  price  volatility  of  the  underlying  share,  the 
expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that 
do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees and key management 
personnel to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the 
vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the 
best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount 
recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already 
recognised in previous periods. 

The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the 
Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into consideration the terms and conditions on which the award 
was granted. The cumulative charge to profit or loss until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: 
● during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date multiplied by the 
expired portion of the vesting period. 
● from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the 
reporting date. 

All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid 
to settle the liability. 

Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore any awards subject to market conditions 
are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are 
satisfied. 

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. 
An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair 
value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. 

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the group, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. 
If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee / key management personnel, and is not 
satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, 
unless the award is forfeited. 

If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense 
is  recognised immediately.  If a  new  replacement  award  is substituted  for  the cancelled award,  the cancelled  and  new 
award is treated as if they were a modification.

The Company received $123,500 as full payment for shares subscribed by Belgrave Capital Management in prior 
years.  Accordingly, the partially paid ordinary shares are now classified as fully paid shares. 

On  22  June  2016,  the  Board  of  Directors  approved  the  issue  of  400,000  ordinary  shares  to  Belgrave  Capital 
Management Limited at $0.05 per share (pre share split) amounting to $20,000 in accordance with the convertible 
loan agreement dated 11 February 2014, with notice having been received from Belgrave indicating its intention

Directors’ fees payable amounting to $18,888 were settled through the issue of 53,967 ordinary shares at $0.10 
per share (pre share split). 

On 1 September 2016, the Board of Directors approved the reduction in the amount payable to Quaalup from an 
existing credit loan facility of $100,000 to $55,000 plus 6% interest per annum. The reduction of this value was 
applied toward exercise of options at $0.10 per share (pre share split). 

On  1  September  2016,  Quaalup  gave  notice  to  the  Company  of  its  intention  to  exercise  1,000,000  options  to 
acquire 100,000 shares at $0.10 per share (pre share split). Part consideration for the option exercise was the 
reduction in the loan facility as detailed above. Accordingly Quaalup was issued 1,000,000 shares in the Company.

In  September  2016,  the  Company  issued  77,000  shares  at  $.35  per  share  to  a  shareholder.    The  funds  were

NOTE 11: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS 

On 31 December 2016, the Company sold its investment in DM Bergbau GmbH to Mr. Christopher Robert Wanless (“the 
Purchaser”),  a  Director  for  a  consideration  $99,217  (Euro  70,000)  resulting  in  a  loss  before  income  tax  of  $15,095.  
Consequently all assets and liabilities allocable to DM Bergbau GmbH have been effectively transferred to the Purchaser

NOTE 17:  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 

a) Overview 
The Company's principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, cash and cash equivalents.  The main risks 
arising from the Company's financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency risk.  
This  note  presents  information  about  the  Company's  exposure  to  each  of  the  above  risks,  its  objectives,  policies  and 
processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital.  Other than as disclosed, there have been no 
significant changes since the previous financial year to the exposure or management of these risks.  

The Company manages its exposure to key financial risks in accordance with the Company's risk management policy.  Key 
financial  risks  are  identified  and  reviewed  annually  and  policies  are  revised  as  required.    The  overall  objective  of  the 
Company's  risk  management  policy  is  to  recognise  and  manage  risks  that  affect  the  Company  and  to  provide  a  stable 
financial platform to enable the Company to operate efficiently. 

The Company does not enter into derivative transactions to mitigate the financial risks.  In addition, the Company's policy is 
that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken for the purposes of making speculative gains.  As the Company's 
operations change, the Directors will review this policy periodically going forward.   

The  Directors  have  overall  responsibility  for  the  establishment  and  oversight  of  the  risk  management  framework.    The 
Directors review and approve policies for managing the Company's financial risks as summarised below.

NOTE 17:  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued) 

b) Capital risk management 
The Company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return 
to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Company’s overall strategy remains unchanged 
from prior years.  The capital structure of the Company consists of debt, cash and cash equivalents and equity, comprising 
issued capital, reserves and retained earnings (accumulated losses). Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand 
operations, as well as to make routine expenditures such as tax, dividends and general administrative outgoings. 

Gearing levels are reviewed by the Board on a regular basis in line with its target gearing ratio, the cost of capital and the 
risks associated with each class of capital. 

c) Credit Risk 
Credit risk refers to the risk that  a counterparty will  default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the 
Company.  The  Company  has  adopted  a  policy  of  only  dealing  with  creditworthy  counterparties  and  obtaining  sufficient 
collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.  

The Company only transacts with entities that are rated the equivalent of investment grade and above. This information is 
supplied by independent rating agencies where available and, if not available, the Company uses publicly available financial 
information and its own trading record to rate its major customers.  

The  Company  does  not  have  any  significant  credit  risk  exposure  to  any  single  counterparty  or  any  Company  of 
counterparties having similar characteristics.  

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its 
contractual obligations.  This arises principally from cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. 

There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Company.  The carrying amount of the Company's financial 
assets represents the maximum credit risk exposure, as represented below: 

Cash on hand and in bank 
Trade and other receivables

7,924,824 

30,527 
125,564 
156,091 

Trade  and  other  receivables  are  comprised  primarily  of  sundry  receivables  and  GST  refunds  due.  Where  possible  the 
Company trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties 

With respect to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default 
of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. 

d) Interest Rate Risk 
The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the bank deposits with floating 
interest rate. 

These financial assets with variable rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk.  All other financial assets and 
liabilities, in the form of receivables and payables are non-interest bearing. 

At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Company's interest-bearing financial instruments was:

Interest rate sensitivity 
A sensitivity of 0.1% (10 basis points) has been selected as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both 
short term and long term interest rates.  A 1% (100 basis points) movement in interest rates at the reporting date would 
have increased (decreased) equity and profit and loss by the amounts shown below.  This analysis assumes that all other 
variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant.  The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2017.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.  The Board's 
approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that the Company will always have sufficient liquidity to meet 
its  liabilities  when  due  by  continuously  monitoring  forecast  and  actual  cash  flows  and  matching  the  maturity  profiles  of 
financial assets and liabilities. 

The contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments, are provided below.  There are no 
netting arrangements in respect of financial liabilities.

f) Foreign Exchange Risk (continued) 

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis 
The sensitivity analysis below details the Company’s sensitivity to an increase/decrease in the Australian Dollar against the 
United States Dollar.  The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items.  A 
100 basis point is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to management and represents 
management’s assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. 

At reporting date, if foreign exchange rates had been 100 basis points higher or lower and all other variables held constant,  
the Company’s loss will increase/decrease by $92 (2016: $Nil); and net assets will increase/decrease by $92 (2016: $Nil). 

There  were  no  outstanding  foreign  currency  denominated  liabilities  as  at  30  June  2017.    The  Company’s  sensitivity  to 
foreign exchange rates has not changed significantly from prior year.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 
TO THE MEMBERS OF 
ALDERAN RESOURCES LIMITED 

Opinion 

We  have  audited  the  financial  report  of  Alderan  Resources  Limited  (the  Company)  and  its  subsidiaries  (the 
Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the consolidated 
statement  of  comprehensive  income,  the  consolidated  statement  of  changes  in  equity  and  the  consolidated 
statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of 
significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.  

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, 
including:  

(i) 

giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  Group's  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2017  and  of  its  financial 
performance for the year then ended; and 

(ii) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for Opinion 

We  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  Australian  Auditing  Standards.  Our  responsibilities  under  those 
standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of 
our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the 
Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial 
report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.  

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to 
the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's 
report. 

We  believe  that  the  audit  evidence  we  have  obtained  is  sufficient  and  appropriate  to  provide  a  basis  for  our 
opinion.

Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of 
the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial 
report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. 

Key Audit Matter 

How our audit addressed this matter 

Carrying Value of Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure 
Refer to Note 8 in the financial statements 

The  Group  has  capitalised  a  significant  amount  of 
exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure,  with  a 
carrying value of $1,162,236 as at 30 June 2017. 

Our audit procedures in relation to the carrying value of 
exploration and evaluation expenditure included: 

the  year, 

the  Group 

During 
recognised  an 
impairment  of  $530,215  against  its  capitalised 
exploration  expenditure,  in  respect  of  its  Burrowa 
and Mt Stewart areas of interest, resulting from the 
decision  by  the  Group  to  relinquish  its  Australian 
tenements, and focus on its North American areas 
of interest. 

We determined this to be a key audit matter due to 
the  significant  management  judgment  involved  in 
assessing  the  carrying  value  in  accordance  with 
AASB  6  Exploration  for  and  Evaluation  of  Mineral 
Resources, including: 

finding 

the  basis  on  which 

  Determination  of  whether  expenditure  can  be 
specific  mineral 
that 

associated  with 
resources,  and 
expenditure is allocated to an area of interest; 
  Determination  of  whether  exploration  activities 
have  progressed  to  the  stage  at  which  the 
existence  of  an  economically 
recoverable 
mineral reserve may be assessed; and 

  Assessing whether any indicators of impairment 
are  present,  and  if  so,  judgments  applied  to 
determine and quantify any impairment loss. 

Other Information  

  Obtaining evidence that the Group has valid rights to 

explore in the specific area; 

  Reviewing  and  enquiring  with  management  the 
basis  on  which  they  have  determined  that  the 
exploration and evaluation of mineral resources has 
the  stage  which  permits  a 
not  yet  reached 
reasonable  assessment  of 
the  existence  or 
otherwise of economically recoverable reserves;  
  Agreeing  a  sample  of  additions  to  capitalised 
exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  during  the 
year to supporting documentation and ensuring that 
the amounts were capital in nature and relate to the 
area of interest; 

  Enquiring with management and reviewing budgets 
and plans to test that the Group will incur substantive 
expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation 
of mineral resources in the specific area;  

  Critically  assessing  and  evaluating  management’s 
assessment that no indicators of impairment existed; 
and 

  For  the  Burrowa  and  Mt  Stewart  areas  of  interest, 
against  which  an  impairment  charge  has  been 
recognised, reviewing the basis on which this charge 
has  been  calculated,  and  agreeing  this  to  the 
balance capitalised in respect of that area of interest. 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included 
in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the financial report and the 
auditor's report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing 
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge 
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If,  based  on  the  work  we  have  performed,  we  conclude  that  there  is  a  material  misstatement  of  this  other 
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair 
view  in  accordance  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  the  Corporation  Act  2001  and  for  such  internal 
control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true 
and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.  

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as 
a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of 
accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic 
alternative but to do so.  

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our  objectives  are  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  financial  report  as  a  whole  is  free  from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. 
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance 
with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements 
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably 
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.  

A  further  description  of  our  responsibilities  for  the  audit  of  the  financial  report  is  located  at  the  Auditing  and 
Assurance  Standards  Board  website  at:  http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf.  This 
description forms part of our auditor's report.

Yes 

The Board is ultimately accountable for the performance of the Company and provides leadership and sets 
the strategic objectives of the Company. It appoints all senior executives and assesses their performance 
on at least an annual basis. It is responsible for overseeing all corporate reporting systems, remuneration 
frameworks, governance issues, and stakeholder communications. Decisions reserved for the Board relate 
to  those that have a fundamental impact on the Company, such as material acquisitions and takeovers, 
dividends and buybacks, material profits upgrades and downgrades, and significant closures.  

The Company has developed a Board Charter which sets out the roles and responsibilities of the Board, a 
copy of which is available on the Company's website. 

Yes 

The  Company  undertakes  comprehensive  reference checks  prior  to  appointing  a  director  or  putting  that 
person forward as a candidate to ensure that person is competent, experienced, and would not be impaired 
in any way from undertaking the duties of a director.  

In  addition,  the  Company’s  Nomination  Committee  Charter  establishes  accountability  for  requiring 
appropriate  checks  of  potential  directors  to  be carried out before  appointing  that  person  or  putting  them 
forward as a candidate for election, and this will be undertaken with respect to all future appointments.  

1.3 

A  listed  entity  should  have  a  written  agreement

1.5 

The  company secretary  of  a listed  entity  should 
be accountable directly to the board, through the 
chair,  on  all  matters  to  do  with  the  proper 
functioning of the Board. 

A listed entity should have a diversity policy and 
should  disclose  at  the  end  of  each  reporting 
period  the  measurable  objectives  for  achieving 
gender  diversity  and 
towards 
achieving those objectives.

Yes 

The  Company  Secretary  is  engaged  by  the  Company  to  manage  the  proper  function  of  the  Board.  The 
Company Secretary reports directly to the Chair and is accountable to the Board. 

Partial 

The Company recognises the importance of equal employment opportunity. The Company's corporate code 
of conduct provides a framework for undertaking ethical conduct in employment. Under the corporate code 
of conduct, the Company will not tolerate any form of discrimination or harassment in the workplace. 

However,  the  Company  has  determined  to  not  initially  adopt  a  formal  policy  and  establish  measurable 
objectives for achieving gender diversity (and accordingly, will not initially be in a position to report against 
measurable  objectives).  The  Board  considers  that  its  approach  to  gender  diversity  and  measurable 
objectives is justified by the current nature, size and scope of the business, but will consider in the future, 
once  the  business  operations  of  the  Company  mature,  whether  a  more  formal  approach  to  diversity  is 
required. 

The Company currently has no female board members or senior executives. 

1.6 

A listed entity should: 

Yes 

The Board will review its performance annually, as well as the performance of individual Committees and 
individual directors (including the performance of the Chairman as Chairman of the Board). 

(a)  have and disclose a process for periodically 
evaluating the performance of the board, its 
committees and individual directors;       

(b)  and  disclose,  in  relation  to  each  reporting 
period,  whether  a  performance  evaluation 
was  undertaken  in  the  reporting  period  in 
accordance with that process. 

1.7 

A listed entity should have and disclose a process 
for periodically evaluating the performance of its 
senior executives and disclose, in relation to each 
reporting  period,  whether  a  performance 
evaluation was undertaken in the reporting period 
in accordance with that process. 

Since listing on the ASX the Company has not performed an annual review, which is scheduled to be held 
before the next annual reporting date. 

Full details of the process for performance evaluation of the Board, Board committees, individual Directors 
and key executives will be reported in the Company’s next Annual Report. 

No 

The  Company  intends  to  develop  its  senior  executive  performance  evaluation  procedures  in  order  to 
facilitate  an evaluation to be undertaken within the first 12 months of listing on the ASX  against the key 
objectives of the Company.

2.1 

The  Company  should  have  a  Nomination 
Committee  which  has  at  least  3  members  a 
majority of whom are independent and is chaired 
by an independent director. 

Yes 

If  it  does  not  have  a  nomination  committee,  the 
Board should disclose that fact and the processes 

The  Board  has  not  established  a  separate  nomination  committee.  Given  the  scale  of  the  Company’s 
operations, it is anticipated that the full Board will be able to continue adequately discharge the functions of 
a Nomination Committee for the short to medium term. The Board will consider establishing a Nomination 
Committee when the size and complexity of the Company’s operations and management warrant it.  In the 
meantime,  the  Company  has  adopted  a  Nomination  Committee  Charter  and  Remuneration  Committee

established.  

The Company’s Nomination Committee Charter and Remuneration Committee Charter are available on the 
Company’s website. 

The Board has been specifically constituted with the mix of skills and experience that the Company requires 
to move forward in implementing its business objectives. The composition of the Board and the performance 
of each Director will be reviewed from time to time to ensure that the Board continues to have a mix of skills 
and experience necessary for the conduct of the Company’s activities as the Company’s business matures 
and evolves.   

The Company is currently developing a skills  matrix  which will indicate the mix of skills, experience and 
expertise that are considered necessary at Board level for optimal performance of the Board. The matrix 
will reflect the Board's objective to have an appropriate mix of industry and professional experience including 
skills  such  as  leadership,  governance,  strategy,  finance,  specific  technical  knowledge  and  international 
business experience. External consultants may be brought it with specialist knowledge to address areas 
where this is an attribute deficiency in the Board.

(a)   the names of the directors considered by the 

Nicolaus Heinen, Non-executive Chairman - Independent

However, the Company is confident that current composition of the Board is optimal for transitioning the 
Company into its next phase of operations, and is therefore in the best interests of the Company and its

3.1 

A listed entity should have a code of conduct for 
its  directors,  senior  executives  and  employees 
and disclose that code or a summary of it. 

Yes 

The Company has adopted a Code of Conduct, which provides a framework for decisions and actions in 
relation to ethical conduct in business.  All of the Company’s directors and employees are required to comply 
with the standards of behaviour and business ethics in accordance with the law and the Code of Conduct.  

The Code of Conduct is disclosed on the Company’s website.

SAFEGUARD INTEGRITY IN FINANCIAL REPORTING 

4.1 

The Board of a listed entity should have an audit 
committee which consists of at least 3 members 
all  of  whom  are  non-  executive  directors  and  a 
majority of whom are independent directors and 
the  committee  should  be  chaired  by  an 
independent director  who  is  not  the  chair  of  the 
board. 

If it does not have an audit committee, the Board 
should  disclose  that  fact  and  the  processes  it 
employs that independently verify and safeguard 
the  integrity  of  its  corporate  reporting,  including 
the processes for the appointment and removal of 
the external auditor and the rotation of the audit 
engagement partner.   

Yes 

The Board has not established a separate audit committee. Given the present size of the Company and the 
scale of its operations, the Board has decided that the full Board can adequately discharge the functions of 
an  audit  committee.  The  Board  will  establish  an  Audit  Committee  when  the  size  and  complexity  of  the 
Company’s operations and management warrant it. 

In  the  meantime,  the  Board  has  adopted  an  Audit  and  Risk  Committee  Charter,  which  includes  specific 
responsibilities relating to audit and risk, and which the Board uses as a guide when acting in the capacity 
of the Audit Committee.    

The Company’s Audit and Risk Committee Charter is available on the Company’s website.

comply  with 
the  appropriate  accounting 
standards  and  give  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the 
financial  position  and  performance  of  the  entity 
and that the opinion has been formed on the basis 
of  a  sound  system  of  risk  management  and 
internal control which is operating effectively. 

4.3 

A listed entity that has an AGM should ensure that 
its  external  auditor  attends  its  AGM  and  is 
available  to  answer  questions  from  security 
holders relevant to the audit. 

5. 

MAKE TIMELY AND BALANCED DISCLOSURES 

5.1 

A  listed  entity  should  have  a  written  policy  for 
complying  with 
its  continuous  disclosure 
obligations under the Listing Rules and disclose 
that policy or a summary of it.

The Board will continue to require a conforming declaration from the relevant key executive or executives 
before it approves the entity’s financial statements for each financial period, consistent with practise to date.

The  Company  has  established  a  website  on  which  it  maintains  information  in  relation  to  corporate 
governance,  directors  and  senior  executives,  Board  and  committee  charters,  annual  reports,  ASX 
announcements and contact details. 

The Company has adopted a Shareholder Communications Policy, which establishes principles to ensure 
that the shareholders are informed of all major developments affecting the Company’s state of affairs. 

The Shareholder Communications Policy is disclosed on the Company’s website. 

The Company encourages shareholders to participate in general meetings of the Company as a means by 
which  feedback  can  be  given  to  the  Company  and  allocates  scheduled  question  time  at  meetings  of 
Shareholders to facilitate participation at those meetings.

Alderan Resources Limited 

The  Company  engages  its  share  registry  to  manage  the  majority  of  communications  with  shareholders.  
Shareholders  are  encouraged  to  receive  correspondence  from  the  Company  electronically,  thereby 
facilitating  a  more  effective,  efficient  and  environmentally  friendly  communication  mechanism  with 
shareholders.  Shareholders not already receiving information electronically can elect to do so through the 
share registry, Automic Share Registry Pty Ltd at www.automic.com.au.  

The Board has not established a separate risk committee. Given the present size of the company, the Board 
has decided that the full Board can adequately discharge the functions of a risk committee for the time being. 
The Board will establish a Risk Committee when the size and complexity of the Company’s operations and 
management warrant it. 

In the meantime, the Company’s Audit and Risk Committee Charter includes principles to guide the Board’s 
oversight of the Company’s risk function.   

The identification and management of risk has been continually at the forefront of the Company’s recent 
activities.   

In  accordance  with  the  Audit  and  Risk  Committee  Charter,  the  Board  will  review  the  Company’s  risk 
management  framework  on  an  annual  basis.  Such  as  review  has  not  taken  place  since  the  Company 
adopted its risk framework and listed on the ASX. The Company intends to conduct this review prior to its 
next annual reporting date.  

Yes 

Given the present size of the company, the Board has decided that a formal internal audit function is not 
required for the time being. 

The risk management functions employed by the Board are summarised above. 

6.4 

A  listed  entity  should  give  security  holders  the 
option to receive communications from, and send 
communications  to,  the  entity  and  its  security 
registry electronically.

RECOGNISE AND MANAGE RISK 

7.1 

The  Board  should  establish  a  risk  management 
committee  made  up  of  at  least  3  members,  a 
majority of whom are independent directors, and 
chaired by an independent director. 

If  it  does  not  have  a  risk  committee,  the  Board 
should  disclose  that  fact  and  the  processes  it 
employs 
risk 
for  overseeing 
management framework.     

the  entity’s 

Yes 

Yes 

7.2 

The board or a committee of the board should: 

Yes 

(a)   review 

the  entity’s 

risk  management 
framework  at  least  annually  to  satisfy  itself 
that it continues to be sound; and  

(b)   disclose, in relation to each reporting period, 
whether such a review has taken place. 

7.3 

A listed entity should disclose:  

(a)   if  it  has  an  internal  audit  function,  how  the 
is  structured  and  what  role  it 

function 
performs; or  

(b)   if it does not have an internal audit function, 
that  fact  and  the  processes  it  employs  for 
evaluating  and  continually  improving  the 
effectiveness  of  its  risk  management  and 
internal control processes. 

7.4 

A listed entity should disclose whether it has any 
material  exposure  to  economic,  environmental 

Yes 

The Company provides its material risks below, including exposure to economic, environmental and social 
sustainability risks.  The Company will continue to disclose these material risks in the future in its annual 
report or elsewhere as appropriate.

and social sustainability risks and, if it does, how 
it manages or intends to manage those risks. 

Alderan Resources Limited 

Liquidity risk 

Certain securities are likely to be classified as restricted securities.  To the extent that Shares are classified 
as restricted securities, the liquidity of the market for Shares may be adversely affected.  

Limited exploration on the Frisco Project 

Although there have been various phases of exploration across the Tenements that comprise the Frisco 
Project, the prospects on which the Company are focusing are in the early stages of exploration and do not 
contain any resources  that  are consistent with the current JORC Code guidelines. Further evaluation of 
data  and  exploration  is  required  to  determine  whether  any  historical  mineralisation  estimates  within  the 
licences may be upgraded to be consistent with the current JORC Code guidelines. 

Exploration and evaluation risks 

Mineral  exploration,  development  and  mining  activities  are  high-risk  undertakings.  There  can  be  no 
assurance that exploration on these Tenements, or any other claims or leases that may be acquired in the 
future,  will  result  in  the  discovery  of  an  economic  ore  deposit.    Even  if  an  apparently  viable  deposit  is 
identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited. 

Title risks  

Mineral rights in the USA may be owned by private parties, local government, state government, federal 
government, or indigenous groups.  Verifying the chain of title for USA mineral rights can be complex and 
may require that remedial steps be taken to correct any defect in title.  Securing exploration and extraction 
rights  to  federally-owned  mineral  rights  requires  strict  adherence  to  claim  staking  and  maintenance 
requirements.  The Company has taken reasonable steps to verify the title to the Tenements in which it 
has,  or  has  a  right  to  acquire,  an  interest.  Although  these  steps  are  in  line  with  market  practice  for 
exploration projects such as the Frisco Project, they do not guarantee title to the Tenements nor guarantee 
that the Tenements are free of any third party rights or claims. 

Future capital requirements 

The Company's activities are likely to require substantial expenditure, in additional to the amounts raised 
under the Offer.  Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to Shareholders and any debt financing if 
available  may  involve  restrictive  covenants,  which  may  limit  the  Company's  operations  and  business 
strategy. 

Although  the  Directors  believe  that  additional  capital  can  be  obtained,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that 
appropriate capital or funding, if and when needed, will be available on terms favourable to the Company 
or at all. The Company's failure to raise capital if and when needed could delay or suspend the Company's 
business strategy and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's activities. 

Reliance on key personnel 

The  Company’s  future  depends,  in  part,  on its  ability  to  attract  and  retain  key  personnel.  Its  future also 
depends on the continued contributions of its executive management team and other key management and 
technical  personnel,  the  loss  of  whose  services  would  be  difficult  to  replace.  In  addition,  the  inability  to 

60 
 
 
 
Alderan Resources Limited 

continue to attract appropriately qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s 
business. 

Fluctuations in Commodity prices 

The Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations are heavily dependent 
on prevailing metals prices, particularly copper. There can be no assurance that the existing level of metals 
prices will be maintained in the future. Any future declines, even relatively modest ones, in metals prices 
could adversely affect the Company's business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.  

Exchange rate risks 

The Company operates in multiple currencies and exchanges rates are constantly fluctuating. International 
prices of various commodities, as well as the exploration expenditure of the Company are denominated in 
United  States  dollars,  whereas  the  Company  will  rely  principally  on  funds  raised  and  accounted  for  in 
Australian currency, exposing the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between 
the United States dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international markets. 

Other industry specific risks 

The Company’s activities are subject to a number of risks common to the conduct of mining exploration and 
the financing of mining exploration activities, including but not limited to: 

(a) 

(b) 

(c) 

(d) 

(e) 

(f) 

risks inherent in resource estimation; 

operation and technical risks; 

environmental risks; 

tenure risks; 

contract counterparty risks; and 

competition risks. 

8. 

REMUNERATE FAIRLY AND RESPONSIBLY 

8.1 

The  board  should  establish  a  remuneration 
committee which has at least three members, a 
majority  of  whom  are  independent  and  which  is 
chaired by an independent director.  

If  it  does  not  have  a  remuneration  committee, 
disclose that fact and the processes it employs for 
setting the level and composition of remuneration 
for directors and senior executives and ensuring 
that  such  remuneration  is  appropriate  and  not 
excessive 

Yes 

The Board has not established a separate remuneration committee. Given the present size of the company, 
the  Board  has  decided  that  the  full  Board  can  adequately  discharge  the  functions  of  a  remuneration 
committee for the time being.  

The  Board  will  establish  a  Remuneration  Committee  when  the  size  and  complexity  of  the  Company’s 
operations and management warrant it.   

In the meantime, the Board has adopted a Remuneration Committee Charter, which includes principles for 
setting and reviewing the level and composition of  remuneration for directors and senior executives and 
ensuring that such remuneration is appropriate and not excessive, including if required, the ability to obtain 
independent advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages. Until such time as the Remuneration 
Committee is established, the functions of this committee will continue to be carried out by the full Board. 

61 
 
 
Yes 

Each director has entered a separate employment or consultancy agreement with the Company.   

Alderan Resources Limited 

8.2 

A  listed  entity  should  separately  disclose  its 
policies and practices regarding the remuneration 
of non-executive directors and the remuneration 
of  executive  directors  and  other  senior 
executives. 

8.3 

A  listed  entity  which  has  an  equity-  based 
remuneration scheme should:  

N/A 

(a)  have  a  policy  on  whether  participants  are 
permitted to enter into transactions (whether 
through the use of derivatives or otherwise) 
which limit the economic risk of participating 
in the scheme; and  

(b)  disclose that policy or a summary of it. 

The remuneration of directors and senior executives is generally reviewed annually. As discussed under 
Recommendation 8.1 above, a Remuneration Committee Charter is in place, and the Board (in its capacity 
as the Remuneration Committee) in will consider its approach to remuneration in due course having regard 
to the Remuneration Committee Charter. Disclosure of the remuneration arrangements for Directors and 
senior executives will be disclosed in the annual reports of the Company in the future. 

The  Company  maintains  a  Securities  Trading  Policy  which  restricts  the  permission  for  employees  and 
directors to enter transactions which limit the economic risks associated with the participation in any of the 
Company's  equity  based incentive  schemes.  A copy  of  the  Securities  Trading  Policy  is available  on  the 
Company's website. 

The use of derivatives or other hedging arrangements for unvested securities of the Company or vested 
securities of the Company which are subject to escrow arrangements  is prohibited.  Where a director or 
other  senior  executive  uses  derivatives  or  other  hedging  arrangements  over  vested  securities  of  the 
Company, this will be disclosed.

* These claims have an undivided portion owned by Horn Silver Mines Inc., with the remainder owned by a 
third party.  Accordingly, Volantis’s leasehold interest covers only that portion owned by Horn Silver Mines 
Inc.   

** These claims are subject to a March 1, 2010 lease from Horn Silver Mines Inc. to Great American 
Resources, LLC.  

Note: The listed township and ranges are all according to the Salt Lake Base & Meridian.  The section 
numbers are listed for convenience in locating a particular claim and do not indicate that the entirety of a 
particular claim lies within the listed section or sections.  All of the claims are located in the Pruess or San 
Francisco Mining Districts except for the King Bird Claim, which is located in the Beaver Lake Mining District.  
Most of the mining claims were located and surveyed before the area was surveyed according to the public 
land survey system.  Thus, a formal, updated survey would be necessary to precisely locate the claims within 
the public land survey system.

* These claims have a subdivided portion owned by Horn Silver Mines Inc., with the remainder owned by a 
third party.  Accordingly, Volantis’s leasehold interest covers only that portion owned by Horn Silver Mines 
Inc.   

** These claims are subject to a March 1, 2010 lease from Horn Silver Mines Inc. to Great American 
Resources, LLC.  

Note: The listed township and ranges are all according to the Salt Lake Base & Meridian.  The section 
numbers are listed for convenience in locating a particular claim and do not indicate that the entirety of a 
particular claim lies within the listed section or sections.  All of the claims are located in the Pruess or San 
Francisco Mining Districts.  Most of the mining claims were located and surveyed before the area was 
surveyed according to the public land survey system.  Thus, a formal, updated survey would be necessary to 
precisely locate the claims within the public land survey system.
