Detroit is Alderan’s flagship project and key focus, while exploration at Valley Crossroads and White Mountain projects is at an early stage. Kennecott Exploration Limited (KEX), a subsidiary of Rio Tinto, is exploring to earn an interest in the Frisco project. Figure 1: Alderan Resources project location in western Utah, USA Detroit Project, Utah The Detroit Project lies within the Detroit Mining District, approximately 175km southeast of Salt Lake City in Utah and contains numerous historical copper, gold and manganese mines. The district has been explored for copper and gold in the past but no one company was able to build a significant contiguous land position to enable District wide modern exploration. Most of the historical exploration focussed on the near surface Basin Porphyry oxide copper and Mizpah oxide gold deposits which lie on the eastern and south-eastern margin respectively of the Basin Complex porphyry. The Basin Porphyry copper oxide deposit was drilled in the early 1960s and Mizpah in the mid-1980s. The geology of the area consists primarily of moderately west to southwest-dipping, Cambrian age clastic and calcareous sediments that have been intruded by an Eocene poly-phase quartz diorite to quartz monzonite porphyry which has undergone phyllic alteration. During the year, Alderan increased its tenement position to a 24.7km2 block of contiguous leases. Three new option agreements executed with DMMP, the Miller/Myer companies and other small landowners enabled Alderan to carry out district-wide exploration for the first time. Prior to the consolidation, Alderan completed reconnaissance rock sampling and a ground magnetic survey over the area held at the time. It also carried out a seven-hole drilling programme focused on the Mizpah oxide gold deposit. Initial assessment Alderan’s first-pass assessment of its consolidated Detroit project area included stream and rock sampling and a ground magnetic survey. Alderan completed a high density, high sensitivity, bulk leach extraction gold (BLEG) stream sampling survey over the entire consolidated area and collected 197 rock samples during reconnaissance geological mapping (Figures 3 & 4). 8 Alderan Resources Limited Figure 2: Detroit tenement boundary and simplified geology. The stream sediment survey identified highly anomalous catchments with gold assays up to 88ppb against an anomaly threshold of 4ppb. Anomalous copper up to 99ppb was also detected. These results were strongly supported by rock samples assays with 28 samples grading >1.0g/t gold (maximum 9.0g/t Au) and 17 grading greater than 0.5% copper (maximum 3.2% Cu). The stream and rock results supported past exploration data in highlighting strong potential for a copper-gold rich porphyry intrusive system and an extensive gold mineralising system. Figure 3: Detroit copper in stream catchments and +1% copper in rock samples Figure 4: Detroit gold in stream catchments and +2g/t gold in rock samples. 9 Alderan Resources Limited The ground magnetics clearly outlined the 1.6km diameter Basin Complex as a ‘classic’ porphyry signature. The complex consists of the central Basin Main magnetic anomaly which is surrounded by a zone of low magnetics that is in turn ringed by a zone of variable magnetics. Basin Main is interpreted to be the potassic altered core of the porphyry which is surrounded by a pyritic phyllic altered zone characterised by low magnetics. The outer magnetic rim is thought to be a mixture of variably altered intrusives and skarns developed on the margin of the intrusive complex. Completion of 3D inversion modelling of the Basin Main anomaly (>0.03 SI units cutoff) indicated a 500m x 300m feature which extends to a depth of over 500m from surface. Petrographic examination of drill core from hole DD20M-003, which was drilled by Alderan towards the Basin Main anomaly prior to tenement consolidation in late 2020, confirmed potassic altered porphyry with increasing alteration and copper +/- molybdenum mineralisation down the hole. Induced Polarisation (IP) Geophysics Alderan’s next step was to complete a high-quality IP geophysical survey over the Basin Complex and surrounding area highlighted by the ground magnetics. The aim was to identify electrically chargeable and conductive bodies potentially caused by mineralisation and altered host rocks containing copper and gold. The IP data were processed and 3-D inversion modelled. The IP highlighted a large 2km x 2.5km chargeability anomaly (>20milliseconds cut-off) which engulfs the Basin Complex porphyry and wraps around the Basin Main magnetic anomaly. The highest chargeability occurs in the arcuate magnetic low surrounding Basin Main. This reinforced the interpretation that a halo of pyrite-rich, magnetite destructive phyllic alteration extends outward from a potassic altered core containing magnetite. Figure 5: Resistivity cross section through the Basin Complex chargeability and magnetics inversion models (chargeability @ >40milliseconds cut-off yellow iso-surface; magnetics @ >0.03 SI units cut-off red iso-surface). The blue zones surrounding the Basin Complex anomaly are resistivity lows interpreted to be cause d by propylitic clay alteration defining the limits of the complex. More resistive zones (red) can be seen on the eastern and western margins of the section. Northwest view. The 3D inversion modelling of the IP at a higher >40 milliseconds cut-off shown in Figure 5 indicates that the highly chargeable zone is mushroom shaped, approximately 1km in diameter near surface and narrows to a stem diameter of approximately 200m at 700m below surface. It also indicates that the Basin Main magnetic anomaly is less chargeable than the non-magnetic arc which surrounds it. This suggests that the Basin Main magnetic anomaly may be associated with less chargeable but interconnected copper sulphide minerals whereas the highly chargeable non-magnetic arc surrounding it is more likely due to pyrite in phyllic alteration. The IP also identified four new high chargeability anomalies on the margin of the Basin Complex - Southern, Copperhead, Northern Extension and Mizpah. At the >20msec cut-off, these anomalies all have strike lengths ranging from 0.9-1.1km and widths of 150-500m. High-grade gold occurs in rock samples collected at Copperhead, Mizpah and Northern 10 Alderan Resources Limited Extension with assays up to 9.1g/t, 6.9g/t and 1.2g/t respectively. They are all interpreted to have potential for distal disseminated gold deposits. Mizpah Prospect The Mizpah oxide gold deposit, located on the south-eastern margin of the Basin Complex, was extensively drilled in the mid-1980s. In late 2020 prior to tenement consolidation, Alderan completed a first-pass review of the available historical data, ground magnetics and an initial seven hole (1,113m) diamond drilling programme to test the full thickness of potentially mineralised stratigraphy below and down dip of the oxidised gold mineralisation and the mineralised intrusives and skarns highlighted in the magnetics. Encouraging gold assays were obtained from the holes submitted for analysis, with the best result in DD20M-006 which intersected a broad sulphide altered zone which contained 6.9m @ 1.98g/t gold within 83m grading 0.41g/t gold. This hole was drilled approximately 300m northwest of the focus of historical drilling. Holes DD20M-002 and DD20M-005 verified the results of historical drilling (hole DD20M-001 was abandoned) while hole DD20M-007 tested for an interpreted down dip extension 500m to the west of the focus of historical drilling. Holes DD20M-003 and DD20M-004 were drilled to test separate targets, the first towards the Basin Main magnetic anomaly and the second below anomalous gold in rock samples in a mineralised intrusive. Intercepts included: • DD20M-002: 13.3m at 0.42g/t Au from 51.2m • DD20M-005: 15.4m at 0.38g/t Au from 19.9m and 9.2m at 0.37g/t Au from 42.1m • DD20M-006: 83.0m at 0.41g/t Au from 35.8m including 6.9m at 1.98g/t Au from 84.6m • DD20M-007: 11.75m at 0.17g/t Au from 172.25m. Drill collar locations are shown in Figure 9. In August 2021, Alderan announced the results of a detailed review of the historical drilling at Mizpah which was done to delineate a near-surface oxide gold deposit. The review, which entailed assessing data from 197 holes drilled in the 1980s, strongly supports the potential for a distal disseminated gold deposit. The holes were drilled to an average depth of 28m and over an area of approximately 400m x 250m. Only one hole was drilled to over 100m (ended at 103.7m) as the holes were typically terminated when they intersected fresh rock regardless of whether there was mineralisation present. No quality assurance/quality control information is available for analytical data hence the drill hole assays are regarded by Alderan as indicative of exploration potential only. Importantly however, there were 40 holes which ended in highly anomalous grades of over 0.5g/t gold, and of these, 20 ended in +1.0g/t Au (max assay 9.1g/t Au). The location of the drill holes is shown in Figure 6. Figure 6: Mizpah 3D block model showing historical drill holes and section lines. The block model has been built using a nominal 0.1g/t gold cutoff from the historical (1980s) drill hole data. 11 Alderan Resources Limited Alderan used the historical drill hole information and assays to develop a 3D block model of the gold distribution at Mizpah which suggests: - - - - - The deposit is open along strike to the southeast and northwest and down dip to the southwest. The deposit remains open at depth with 20% of the holes drilled ending in highly anomalous gold mineralisation. There is potential for a second mineralised horizon at depth. The 3D inversion model chargeability anomaly at Mizpah, which was identified after the historical and Alderan drilling, is largely tested. The historically defined near surface Mizpah oxide gold deposit has exploration potential for 3.0-4.0Mt at a grade of 0.4-0.8g/t gold (40,000-100,000 ounces). It should be noted that this exploration potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, that there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. The review concluded that there is significant potential for extensions to the historical oxide gold deposit at Mizpah. The Southern, Copperhead and Northern Extension prospects are all regarded as analogous to Mizpah. They all have high order chargeability anomalies which lie on the margins of the Basin Complex porphyry, associated anomalous gold and copper in rock samples and occur in favourable stratigraphy and structural settings. Figure 7: Mizpah long section (D-D’) which suggests that the mineralized horizon is stratigraphically controlled and that a second deeper horizon is present (interpolated from holes drilled off the section line). It also highlights that the mineralisation is open to both the north and south. Figure 8: Mizpah cross section B-B’ suggests that the mineralisation is stratigraphic, dipping at approximately 20o to the west and open down dip to the west. A second deeper horizon is present. 12 Alderan Resources Limited Next Steps Alderan awaits assay results for 2,200 grid soil samples collected at Detroit. The samples were collected every 40m along lines 200m apart over the prospective stratigraphy and intrusives. The soil assays will assist in prioritising drilling and identifying new targets. A 10-hole (3,000m) diamond drilling programme to test seven targets is scheduled to commence in September subject to arrival of the contracted drill rig to site. The holes are planned to test a range of targets including the Basin Complex porphyry (Cu-Au-Mo), the distal disseminated gold prospects at Southern, Copperhead, Northern Extension and Mizpah plus the Martha Mine and Skarn (Au-Cu) prospects. This drilling programme is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2022. Figure 9: Stage 1 proposed drill holes and historical holes on the Basin Complex 3D inversion model chargeability anomaly (20-30 millisecond shell; yellow iso-surface) overlying the Basin Main magnetic anomaly (>0.03 SI units; red iso-surface). 13 Alderan Resources Limited Valley-Crossroads Project, Utah Black Rock Prospect Valley-Crossroads is located 300km south-southwest of Salt Lake City and adjacent to the Company’s Frisco Project in Utah. Alderan completed detailed geological mapping and first-pass rock sampling at the Black Rock Prospect to confirm historical exploration results which were open in all directions. The rock sample assays were highly anomalous with maximum grades up to 10.2% copper and 4.6g/t gold. The identified mineralisation lies close to the contact of two intrusions and is at the intersection of major WNW, NE and NNW structures. Calc-silicate skarn with magnetite and martite overprinted by hydrothermal dolomite-calcite-quartz that hosts oxidised chalcopyrite-bornite-pyrite is developed along these intrusive contacts. Specular hematite is common. During the March quarter, Alderan completed a three-hole diamond drilling programme to test the potential for thickening of the magnetite skarn mineralisation interpreted from Alderan’s aeromagnetic data. No significant mineralised zones were observed in the holes and analysis of core samples revealed no significant grades, with the best intersection being 5.5m grading 0.31g/t gold from 96.5m in hole VC21B-001. The aeromagnetic anomaly was interpreted to be caused by magnetite in intrusives. Frisco Project, Utah The Frisco copper-gold-silver project lies 300km south-southwest of Salt Lake City in Utah. The project is the subject of a farm in agreement with Kennecott Exploration (KEX), a subsidiary of Rio Tinto, where KEX can earn up to a 70% interest by spending US$30 million over 10 years. Frisco was explored historically, and more recently by Alderan, for copper and gold prior to this agreement. KEX exploration targets at Frisco are: 1) Porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum deposits: and 2) High-grade copper deposits associated with known breccias such as Cactus. KEX completed nine holes at Frisco during the year to test a range of targets including the Cactus Breccia Zone, Accrington and the previously undrilled Reciprocity chargeability anomaly. The results for holes SAWM0001-0004 were released by Alderan in March 2021 and the remaining results for holes SAWM0005-0009 released in June 2021. Hole SAWM0007 was abandoned due to difficult ground conditions and hole SAWM0009 was stopped short of its target depth. Significant intersections were obtained in four drillholes: - - - - SAWM0001: 41.0m @ 1.9% Cu, 0.62g/t Au, 7.1g/t Ag, 62.8ppm Mo SAWM0002: 12.0m @ 0.23g/t Au SAWM0004: 34.0m @ 0.99% Cu, 0.14g/t Au, 13.3g/t Ag SAWM0005: 16.7m @ 0.29% Cu, 1.6g/t Au. The Cactus drillholes confirmed the copper-rich pipe extends to a depth of more than 200m below surface, with hole SAWM0001 intersecting 41m grading 1.9% Cu, 0.62g/t Au and 62.8ppm Mo from 252m downhole. Potentially significant gold and copper mineralisation was intersected in extension drilling in hole SAWM0005 and shallow drilling in the zone between the Cactus and Comet Breccia pipes also intersected moderate gold grades in hole SAWM0002, indicating that potential still exists for mineralisation between these pipes. The highest grades of mineralisation intersected at Cactus and Comet are associated with tourmaline breccias. At Accrington, hole SAWM0004 highlighted the potential for significant mineralisation beyond previously defined ‘pods’ in an area of historical mining activity. The Reciprocity holes, SAWM0003 and SAWM0009, were designed to test a large IP chargeability anomaly. Neither hole intersected mineralisation to explain the source of the anomaly with hole SAWM0009 not reaching its target depth, hence the result is inconclusive. Following a review of the geophysical and drilling results, KEX is planning a high-resolution drone magnetic geophysical survey (Figure 10) to improve the geological and structural understanding of the project area, to better define known magnetic anomalies and to identify new targets for further exploration. This survey data will be processed and modelled ahead of a decision on further drilling. 14 Alderan Resources Limited Figure 10: KEX drill holes and proposed drone aeromagnetic survey at Frisco.

The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by Section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001. The remuneration report details the remuneration arrangements for KMP who are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company, directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company. Key Management Personnel The KMP of the Company during or since the end of the financial year were as follows: Directors Mr Ernest Thomas Eadie Mr Scott Caithness Mr Frank D Hegner Mr Peter Williams* Mr Nicolaus Heinen Position Non-Executive Chairman Managing Director Executive Director Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Period of Employment Appointed on 23 January 2017 Appointed on 6 April 2021 Appointed on 1 November 2017 Appointed on 13 May 2019 Appointed 1 March 2015 Resigned 23 September 2020 *Mr Williams held the role of Managing Director from 1 September 2019 to 6 April 2021, when he was appointed Non-executive Director. 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. 17 Alderan Resources Limited DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (continued) 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 financial year. 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. 18 DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (continued) Long-Term Incentive Plan Alderan Resources Limited The Company has implemented a Long-Term Incentive Plan.

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.

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 KMP and has implemented a Long- Term Incentive Plan which will generally be of value if the Company’s shares appreciate over time.

Other than disclosed above, the directors are not aware of any matters or circumstances not otherwise dealt with in this report or consolidated financial statements that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Group in subsequent financial periods. 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.

Alderan Resources Limited is a listed public company incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The separate financial statements of the parent entity, Alderan Resources Limited, have not been presented within this financial report as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in Note 19. The financial statements were authorised for issue on 29th September 2021 by the Directors of the Company. NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of preparation The financial report is a general-purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis. Material accounting policies adopted in preparation of this financial report are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. Historical cost convention The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for, where applicable, the revaluation of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Critical accounting estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed within Note 1. New and Amended Accounting Policies adopted by the Group The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. The adoption of these new and revised Accounting Standards and Interpretations has not resulted in a significant or material change to the Group’s accounting policies. The adoption of the new Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting from 1 July 2020 has not led to any changes in accounting or disclosure for the Group, but the new Conceptual Framework may be referred to if accounting matters arise that are not addressed by accounting standards. The adoption of the new definition of Material included in AASB 2018-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Definition of Material from 1 July 2020 provides a new definition of material, which now extends materiality consideration to obscuration and clarifies that materiality now depends on the nature or magnitude of information. Future effects of the implementation of these standards will depend on future details. 32 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. a) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent (Alderan Resources Limited) and all of the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it 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 over the entity. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 16. The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group. Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non-controlling interests”. The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non- controlling interests’ proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the Group. Losses incurred by the Group are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance. 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. When the Group changes the proportion of ownership of a non-controlling interest, the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid or received and the adjustment to the balance of the non-controlling interest, is recognised in equity as an adjustment to retained earnings. Such an adjustment to retained earnings does not meet definitions of profit and loss, or other comprehensive income, so is not disclosed in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Consideration paid or received for a non-controlling interest is valued as at the transaction date, not as at an earlier authorisation or contract date, because it does not meet the definition of a share-based payment. b) Operating Segments Operating segments are presented using the 'management approach', where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers (CODM). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance. 33 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) c) 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 current when: it is expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within twelve 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 twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when: it is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current. d) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash on hand and in banks and short-term deposits are stated at nominal value. For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash includes cash on hand and in banks, and money market investments readily convertible to cash within 90 days, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. e) Foreign Currency Translation The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars (AUD), which is also the functional currency of the parent company. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the parent company, using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the remeasurement of monetary items at year end exchange rates are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction (not retranslated). Non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined. In the Group's financial statements, all assets, liabilities and transactions of group entities with a functional currency other than AUD (the Group's presentation currency) are translated into AUD upon consolidation. The functional currency of the entities in the Group has remained unchanged during the reporting period. On consolidation, assets and liabilities have been translated into AUD at the closing rate at the reporting date. Income and expenses have been translated into the Group's presentation currency at the average rate over the reporting period. Exchange differences are charged/credited to other comprehensive income and recognised in the currency translation reserve in equity. On disposal of a foreign operation the cumulative translation differences recognised in equity are reclassified to profit or loss and recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity have been treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated into AUD at the closing rate. 34 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) f) Financial Instruments Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows which arise on specified dates and are solely principal and interest. All other financial instrument assets are 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. Financial assets may be impaired based on an expected credit loss model to recognise an allowance. Such impairment is measured with a 12-month expected credit loss model unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime expected credit loss model is adopted For financial liabilities, the portion of the change in fair value that relates to the Group’s credit risk is presented in other comprehensive income. Hedge accounting requirements align the accounting treatment with the Group’s risk management activities. The Group does not currently have any impaired financial assets, financial liabilities with changes in fair value due to credit risk presented in other comprehensive income, or financial instruments requiring hedge accounting. g) Trade and Other Payables Trade payables and other accounts are recognised when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. h) Trade and Other Receivables Trade and other receivable are amounts due from related parties and other receivables represent the principal amounts due at balance date plus accrued interest less, where applicable, any unearned income and provision for expected credit loss. i) Income Tax The income tax expense or revenue for the year is the tax payable on the current year’s taxable income based on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary difference at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probably that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in subsidiaries where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. 35 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) j) Plant and Equipment Plant and equipment has been 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 Motor vehicles Exploration equipment 3-5 years 7 years 3-5 years 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. k) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure 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. l) Leases The Group has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred. m) Revenue and Other Income Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised based on the transfer of promised goods or services to customers with an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Other 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. Research and development tax offset income is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Interest income is recognised using the effective interest rate methods, which, for floating rate financial assets, is the rate inherent in the instrument. All revenue is stated net of goods and services tax. 36 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) n) Goods and Services Tax (GST) and other similar taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except: – where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of any asset or as part of an item of expense; or – for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flows. o) Impairment of Assets Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which they are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units). p) Share-Based Payment Transactions The Company provides benefits to KMP of the Group in the form of share-based payments, whereby the KMP render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity settled transactions). The Company does not provide cash settled share-based payments. The cost of equity settled transactions with KMP are measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The cost of equity settled transactions are recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the vesting period). The cumulative expense recognised for equity settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired, and the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The profit or loss charge or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised for the period. No cumulative expense is recognised for awards that ultimately do not vest (in respect of non-market vesting conditions). q) Comparative Figures When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year. r) Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Alderan Resources Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year. 37 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) r) Earnings per Share (continued) Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares. s) 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. t) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the Group for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2020. The Group's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the Group, are set out below. Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework) The revised Conceptual Framework is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Conceptual Framework contains new definition and recognition criteria as well as new guidance on measurement that affects several Accounting Standards. Where the Group has relied on the existing framework in determining its accounting policies for transactions, events or conditions that are not otherwise dealt with under the Australian Accounting Standards, the Group may need to review such policies under the revised framework. At this time, the application of the Conceptual Framework is not expected to have a material impact on the Group's financial statements. u) Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below. Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure Exploration and evaluation costs have been capitalised on the basis that activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. 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. Share based payment transactions The Group 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. 38 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 2: SEGMENT REPORTING AASB 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Directors in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance.

The main risks arising from the Group'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 Group 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 Group 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. Categories of financial instruments Financial assets Cash on hand and in bank Trade and other receivables Financial liabilities Trade and other payables 30 June 2021 $ 791,510 131,603 923,113 262,888 262,888 30 June 2020 $ 2,133,424 221,516 2,354,940 348,044 348,044 49 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 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 Total 30 June 2021 $ 791,510 131,603 923,113 30 June 2020 $ 2,133,424 221,516 2,354,940 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. 50 Alderan Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 17: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued) At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Company's interest-bearing financial instruments was: Interest-bearing financial instruments Bank balances 30 June 2021 $ 791,510 791,510 30 June 2020 $ 2,133,424 2,133,424 The Company currently does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage interest rate risk. 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 2020. 30 June 2021 - Profit or loss 30 June 2020 - Profit or loss 100bp Increase 100bp Decrease 100bp Increase 100bp Decrease 7,915 (7,915) 21,334 (21,334) e) Liquidity risk 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.

A fluctuation in foreign exchange rates may affect the cost base of the costs and expenses of the Company. The carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary liabilities as at the reporting date expressed in Australian dollars are as follows: US dollar denominated balances Foreign currency sensitivity analysis 30 June 2021 $ 30 June 2020 $ 181,361 15,386 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 $1,813 (2020: $154); and net assets will increase/decrease by $1,813 (2020: $154). The Company’s sensitivity to foreign exchange rates has not changed significantly from prior year. g) Fair values The net fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities approximates their carrying value. The methods for estimating fair value are outlined in the relevant notes to the financial statements. NOTE 18: COMMITMENTS Exploration expenditure and annual lease/claim payments Committed at the reporting date but not recognised as liability: Within one year One to five years 30 June 2021 $ 30 June 2020 $ 1,205,143 - 930,105 121,287 1,205,143 1,051,392 Where the commitments are due in US Dollars, the Company has used the spot rate on 30 June 2021 as a conversion for the commitments into Australian Dollars. In order to maintain current rights of tenure to exploration tenements, the Company is required to outlay rentals and to meet the minimum expenditure requirements by the Mineral Resources Authority. Minimum expenditure commitments may be subject to renegotiation and with approval may otherwise be avoided by sale, farm out or relinquishment. These obligations are not provided for in the financial statements. 52 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021 NOTE 19: PARENT ENTITY INFORMATION Set out below is the supplementary information about the parent entity.

The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: a. b. giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2021 and its performance for the year then ended; and complying with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations), the Corporations Regulations 2001 and other mandatory professional reporting requirements; and There are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable. The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. 2. 3. This declaration has been made after receiving the declarations required to be made to the Directors in accordance with Section 295A of the Corporations Act 2001. This declaration is signed in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors. Mr Tom Eadie Chairman Dated this 29th day of September 2021 54 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 2021, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year 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 2021 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 Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure Refer to Note 9 in the financial statements The Group has capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure with a carrying value of $11,587,899 as at 30 June 2021. We considered this to be a key audit matter due to the significant management judgments involved in assessing the carrying value of the asset including: finding the basis on which  Determination of whether the 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. Our audit procedures included:  On a sample basis of the claims held by the Group, to supporting right of tenure agreed documentation; this  Agreeing a sample of additions to supporting documentation and ensuring the amounts are capital in nature and relate to the area of interest;  Assessing and evaluating management’s assessment of whether indicators of impairment existed as at 30 June 2021;  Assessing and recalculating the exploration and evaluation expenditure that was written off during the year;  Assessing management’s determination that exploration and evaluation activities have not yet reached a stage where the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves may be reasonably determined; and  Enquiring with management and reviewing budgets and other supporting documentation as evidence that active and significant operations in, or relation to, the area of interest will be continued in the future. Other Information 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 2021, 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: https://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf. This description forms part of our auditor's report. Report on the Remuneration Report Opinion on the Remuneration Report We have audited the Remuneration Report included within the directors' report for the year ended 30 June 2021. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Alderan Resources Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2021, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Responsibilities The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. RSM AUSTRALIA PARTNERS Perth, WA Dated: 29 September 2021 TUTU PHONG Partner CORPORATE GOVERNANCE The Company has adopted comprehensive systems of control and accountability as the basis for the administration of corporate governance. The Board is committed to administering the policies and procedures with openness and integrity, pursuing the true spirit of corporate governance commensurate with the Company's needs. In determining what those policies and procedures should involve the Company has turned to the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (4th Edition). Unless disclosed below, all the principles and recommendations of the ASX Corporate Governance Council have been applied for the entire financial year ended 30 June 2021 (Reporting Period). Alderan Resources Limited PRINCIPLES AND RECOMMENDATIONS (Summary) LAY SOLID FOUNDATIONS FOR MANAGEMENT AND OVERSIGHT COMPLIES COMMENT No. 1. 1.1 Yes A listed entity should have and disclose a board charter setting out: (a) The respective roles and responsibilities of its board and management; and (b) Those matters expressly reserved to the board and those delegated to management. 1.2 A listed entity should: (a) undertake appropriate checks before Yes appointing a person, or putting forward to security holders a candidate for election, as a director; and (b) provide security holders with all material information in its possession relevant to a decision on whether or not to elect or re- elect a director. A listed entity should have a written agreement with each director and senior executive setting out the terms of their appointment. 1.3 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. 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. Yes The Company maintains written agreements with each of its Directors and senior executives setting out their roles and responsibilities and the terms of their appointment. 58 1.4 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: (a) Have and disclose a diversity policy; (b) Through its board or a committee of the board set measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity in the composition of its board, senior executives and workforce generally; and (c) Disclose in relation to each reporting period: 1. 2. the measurable objectives set for that period to achieve gender diversity; the entity’s progress towards achieving those objectives; and 3. either: A. the respective proportions of men and women on the board, in senior executive positions and across the whole organisation (including how the entity has defined “senior executive” for these purposes); or B. if the entity is a “relevant employer” under the Workplace Gender Equality Act, the entity’s most recent “Gender Equality Indicators”, as defined in and published under that Act. If the entity was in the S&P / ASX 300 Index at the commencement of the reporting period, the measurable objective for achieving gender 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. Alderan Resources Limited 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. The Company was not in the S&P / ASX 300 Index at the commencement of the reporting period. 59 1.6 diversity in the composition of its board should be 30% of its directors of each gender within a specified period. A listed entity should: (a) have and disclose a process for periodically evaluating the performance of the board, its committees and individual directors; and (b) Disclose, in relation to each reporting period, whether a performance evaluation was undertaken in the reporting period in accordance with that process. Alderan Resources Limited Yes The Board reviews 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). During the reporting period, the Board collectively assessed their respective roles and contributions to the Company and determined they were appropriate. 1.7 A listed entity should: Yes The Board constantly assesses the performance of the Managing Director, the Company Secretary and other Key Management Personnel during the course of the year. (a) Have and disclose a process for periodically evaluating the performance of its senior executives; and (b) Disclose, in relation to each reporting period, whether a performance evaluation was undertaken in the reporting period in accordance with that process. 2. 2.1 STRUCTURE THE BOARD TO BE EFFECTIVE AND ADD VALUE No The board of a listed entity should: (a) Have a nomination committee which: 1) has at least three members, a majority of whom are independent directors; and 2) is chaired by an independent director; and disclose: 3) 4) the charter of the committee; the members of the committee; and 5) as at the end of each reporting period, the number of times the committee 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 Charter, which includes specific responsibilities to be carried out by those committees when they are established. The Company’s Nomination Committee Charter and Remuneration Committee Charter are available on the Company’s website. 60 met throughout the period, and the individual attendances of the members at those meetings; or (b) If it does not have a nomination committee, disclose the fact and the processes it employs to address board succession issues and to ensure the board has the appropriate balance of skills, knowledge, experience, independence and diversity to enable it to discharge its duties and responsibilities effectively. A listed entity should have and disclose a board skills matrix setting out the mix of skills and diversity that the board currently has or is looking to achieve in its membership. A listed entity should disclose: (a) the names of the directors considered by the board to be independent directors; (b) If a director has an interest, position, association or relationship of the type described in Box 2.3 but the board is of the opinion that it does not compromise the independence of the director, the nature of the interest, position, association or relationship in question and an explanation of why the board is of that opinion; and (c) the length of service for each director A majority of the board of a listed entity should be independent directors 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5 The chair of the board of a listed entity should be an independent director and, in particular, No Alderan Resources Limited No Yes 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. Details of the Directors and their independence status as at 30 June 2021 as follows: - - - - Tom Eadie, Non-executive Chairman – Not independent Scott Caithness, Managing Director – Not independent Bruno Hegner, Executive Director - Not independent Peter Williams, Non-Executive Director – Not independent The independence of each Director has been determined in taking into account the relevant factors suggested in The Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (4th Edition) as published by ASX Corporate Governance Council (Recommendations) (Independence Factors). The length of service for each director is disclosed in this Annual Report. No As disclosed in the response to Recommendation 2.3 above, none of the Directors are considered to be independent. However, the Company is confident that current composition of the Board is optimal for its current level of operations, and is therefore in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Board will review the balance of independence on the Board on an on-going basis, and will implement changes at its discretion having regard to the Company’s growth and changing management and operational circumstances. Mr Eadie is the Chairman and is not considered to be independent by virtue of him acting in the capacity of an Executive Chairman between 11 February 2019 and 1 September 2019. 61 should not be the same person as the CEO of the entity A listed entity should have a program for inducting new directors and provide appropriate professional development opportunities for directors to develop and maintain the skills and knowledge needed to perform their role as directors effectively. Yes Upon appointment to the Board new Directors are provided with Company policies and procedures and are provided an opportunity to discuss the Company's operations with senior management and the Board. The Company encourages its Director’s to participate in professional development opportunities presented to the Company and provides appropriate industry information to its Board members on a regular basis. Alderan Resources Limited INSTIL A CULTURE OF ACTING LAWFULLY, ETHICALLY AND RESPONSIBLY A listed entity should articulate and disclose its values. Yes The Board has adopted a Board Charter, Securities Trading Policy, Whistleblower Policy, Continuous Disclosure Policy and Shareholder Communication Policy which detail frameworks for acceptable corporate behaviour. 2.6 3. 3.1 3.2 A listed entity should: (a) Have and disclose a code of conduct for its directors, senior executives and employees; and (b) Ensure that the board or a committee of the board is informed of any material breaches of that code. 3.3 A listed entity should: (a) Have and disclose a whistleblower policy; and (b) Ensure that the board or a committee of the board is informed of any material incidents reported under that policy. Yes Yes These are available at the Company’s website. 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. The Company’s Whistleblower Policy is available at the Company’s website. It is a requirement of the Board that it is informed of any material breaches, none of which occurred during the reporting period. 3.4 A listed entity should: No The Company has not yet adopted an anti-bribery and corruption policy, however the Company will look to implement an appropriate policy in the near term. (a) Have and disclose an anti-bribery and corruption policy; and 62 Alderan Resources Limited No 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. The Directors require that management report regularly on all financial and commercial aspects of the Company to ensure that they are familiar with all aspects of corporate reporting and believe this to mitigate the risk of not having an independent committee. (b) Ensure that the board or a committee of the board is informed of any material breaches of that policy. SAFEGUARD THE INTEGRITY OF CORPORATE REPORTS The board of a listed entity should: (a) Have an audit committee which: 4. 4.1 1) has at least three members, all of whom are non-executive directors and a majority of whom are independent directors; and 2) is chaired by an independent director, who is not the chair of the board; and disclose: 3) 4) the charter of the committee; the relevant qualifications and experience of the members of the committee; and 5) as at the end of each reporting period, the number of times the committee met throughout the period, and the individual attendances of the members at those meetings; or (b) If it does not have an audit committee, disclose the 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. 4.2 The board of a listed entity should, before it approves the entity’s financial statements for a Yes The Board receives a section 295A declaration from the equivalent of the CEO and CFO for each quarterly, half yearly and full year report in advance of approval of these reports. 63 financial period, receive from its CEO and CFO a declaration that, in their opinion, the financial records of the entity have been properly maintained and that the financial statements 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 controls which is operating effectively. A listed entity should disclose its process to verify the integrity of any periodic corporate report it releases to the market that is not audited or reviewed by an external auditor. MAKE TIMELY AND BALANCED DISCLOSURE A listed entity should have a written policy for complying with its continuous disclosure obligations under Listing Rule 3.1. A listed entity should ensure that its board receives copies of all material market announcements promptly after they have been made. A listed entity that gives a new and substantive investor or analyst presentation should release a copy of the presentation materials on the ASX Market Announcements Platform ahead of the presentation RESPECTS THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS A listed entity should provide information about itself and its governance to investors via its website. A listed entity should design and implement an investor relations program to facilitate effective two-way communication with investors. 4.3 5. 5.1 5.2 5.3 6. 6.1 6.2 Alderan Resources Limited Yes Yes Yes As well as receiving management accounts and financial updates at each Board meeting, the Board receives a section 295A declaration from the equivalent of the CEO and CFO for each quarterly in advance of approval of these reports. The Company has a Continuous Disclosure Policy which includes processes to ensure compliance with ASX Listing Rule 3.1 disclosure and to ensure accountability at a senior executive level for compliance and factual presentation of the Company’s financial position. The Continuous Disclosure Policy is disclosed on the Company’s website. The Board approves all material market announcements made by the Company prior to release to the ASX and is notified once release has occurred. Yes The Company complies with this recommendation. Yes Yes 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. 64 Alderan Resources Limited 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. The Company puts all resolutions that are subject to the Listing Rules to a poll. Further the Chair has regard for the results of the proxy voting when deciding if a non-Listing Rule resolution should be put to a poll instead of by show of hands. 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. 6.3 6.4 7. 7.1 A listed entity should disclose how it facilitates and encourages participation at meetings of security holders. A listed entity should ensure that all substantive resolutions at a meeting of security holders are decided by poll rather than by a show of hands. RECOGNISE AND MANAGE RISK The board of a listed entity should: (a) have a committee or committees to oversee risk, each of which: Yes Yes No 1) has at least three members, a majority of whom are independent directors; and 2) is chaired by an independent director; and disclose: 3) 4) the charter of the committee; the members of the committee; and 5) as at the end of each reporting period, the number of times the committee met throughout the period and the individual attendances of the members at those meetings: or (b) if it does not have a risk committee or committees that satisfy (a) above, disclose that fact and the processes it employs for overseeing the entity’s risk management framework. 7.2 The board or a committee of the board should: Yes The Board currently reviews its risk management strategy on an annual basis at a minimum at a Board level. The Board considers it to be sound. (a) review the entity’s risk management framework at least annually to satisfy itself that it continues to be sound and that the entity is operating with due 65 regard to the risk appetite set by the Board; and (b) disclose, in relation to each reporting period, whether such a review has taken place. A listed entity should disclose: (a) if it has an internal audit function, how the function is structured and what role it 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. A listed entity should disclose whether it has any material exposure to economic, environmental and social sustainability risks and, if it does, how it manages or intends to manage those risks. 7.3 7.4 Alderan Resources Limited Yes The Company is not of the size or scale to warrant the cost of an internal audit function. This function is undertaken by the Board as a whole via the regular and consistent reporting in all risk areas. 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. 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. 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, 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 66 Alderan Resources Limited 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 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.
