REVIEW AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Following the completion of Aldoro’s capital raising on 11 September 2018 and its successful admission to the ASX, the
Company acquired the following projects:
•
Kalgarin Project;
• Ryans Find Project;
•
•
Cathedral Belt Project; and
Leinster Project.
5 | P a g e
Directors’ Report
Ryans Find Project
Aldoro Resources Limited – Annual Report 2019
The Ryans Find Project is located 100km northwest of Southern Cross and covers a substantial part of the NNW-SSE
trending Watt Hills greenstone belt, part of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton. The Watt Hills greenstone belt is the
southern extension of the mafic-ultramafic complex that makes up the stratigraphically lower part of the larger
Diemals-Marda greenstone belt. It is close to the eastern margin of the Southern Cross Province and is bounded to the
east and west by Archaean granitoids and gneiss. The detailed structure of this Belt is not as well understood as other
Belts in Western Australia due to the typical poor outcrop and a general lack of exploration in the past.
Aldoro’s exploration initially focussed on the nickel-cobalt potential of ultramafic rocks within the Watt Hills
Greenstone belt. With recent appreciation in the nickel price, along with a decline in the cobalt price, the project is
being re-evaluated for the potential to host nickel sulphide mineralisation. Both Western Mining Corporation and
Arimco Mining Pty Ltd have reported encouraging results from nickel sulphide exploration at the Ryans Find project.
During the year, an orientation geochemical survey and geological reconnaissance was completed across the Ryans
Find Project, comprising 124 soil samples and 15 rock chips.
Figure 1. Geological Map of the Ryans Find Project.

Directors’ Report
Cathedral Belt Project
Aldoro Resources Limited – Annual Report 2019
The Cathedral Belt Project comprises 7 tenements located 250km northwest of Kalgoorlie (Figure 2), adjacent to nickel
sulphide discoveries made by St George Mining Ltd (St George) at the Cathedrals, Strickland and Investigators
Prospects.
St George has released thick intersections of high-grade nickel-copper cobalt-PGE mineralisation in drilling at these
Prospects (refer ASX Announcement ASX.SGQ 14 June 2019). More recently St George announced a new discovery of
nickel-copper sulphides confirming the potential for further occurences of nickel sulphide mineralisation in the
Cathedrals Belt (refer ASX Announcement ASX.SGQ 2 September 2019).
The Company’s tenements lie to the east, and west, of St George’s tenure (Figure 2) and the Company’s interpretation
is that the greenstones hosting the nickel-sulphide mineralisation extend into Aldoro’s tenure. Extensions to the
prospective ultramafic unit which hosts the nickel-copper mineralisation within St George’s Mt Alexander Project
would represent high priority targets for further exploration.
During the year, the final two tenements in application in the Cathedrals Belt Project were granted (E29/1029 and
E29/1031). The Company will shortly commence initial field activities at the project which will initially comprise
ground inspection of areas of interest identified in data from the Company’s high resolution aeromagnetic survey,
followed by surface geochemical and geophysical surveys.
Leinster Project
Exploration at the Leinster Project during the year successfully identified targets for nickel sulphide mineralisation.
Targets were identified in a high powered EM survey carried out by Aldoro Resources and are associated with known
and interpreted ultramafic units in the project area (refer ASX Announcement 18 December 2018). Aldoro is now
planning to test these targets in its maiden drilling programme, announced on 21st August 2019.
Drilling will test a series of bedrock conductors modelled within an intense, 1km scale electromagnetic (EM) anomaly
which appears to be associated with the contact of a high magnetic response unit (Figures 1 and 2). Investigation of
historical drilling has confirmed that the higher priority anomalies remain untested by drilling. The majority of the
drilling at the Firefly prospect is less than 100m in depth using RAB techniques, insufficient to test the conductors.
Significantly the highest priority targets lie within an embayment of the high magnetic response unit. Such
embayments are commonly hosts for sulphide accumulations in komatiitic basalt flows which are the setting for nickel
mineralisation in the Eastern Goldfields. The Leinster Nickel Project covers mapped and interpreted ultramafic units
located along strike from Talisman Mining’s Sinclair Nickel Project and BHP’s Leinster Nickel Operations, which include
the Perseverance, Rockys Reward and Venus Deposits (Figure 2).
The higher magnetic responses in the Firefly area have previously been determined by drilling to correlate to
ultramafic units with recent confirmation in drilling by Talisman Mining (Talisman) at the Amy Rix Prospect adjacent to
Aldoro’s Leinster Nickel Project (refer Figure 3, ASX.TLM Announcement 20 May 2019 and ARN announcement 23 May
2019). Results reported by Talisman include 21m at 1.03% Ni from surface and 32m at 0.78% Ni from surface
(SNAC0197 and SNAC0200) with broad, shallow nickel mineralisation reported over 500m of strike.

Directors’ Report
Kalgarin Project
The Company is currently designing a geochemical sampling programme across the Kalgarin Project, following the
detection of elevated Ni-Co results in its first pass survey (refer ASX Announcement 29 April 2019). The Kalgarin
Project is located along trend from Golden Mile Resources’ Quicksilver Nickel-Cobalt Project (Figure 2). During 2018
Golden Mile announced the identification of new EM targets along strike from the Quicksilver Project, which is an
encouraging sign for the potential of Aldoro’s Kalgarin Project to host Ni-Co mineralisation (refer Figure 2 and ASX.G88
Announcement 8 August 2018). A maiden Mineral Resource for the Quicksilver Nickel-Cobalt Project was published in
November 2018 (refer ASX.G88 Announcement of 19 November 2018).

The significant changes in state of affairs during and subsequent to the end of the financial year include:
• On 11 September 2018, the Company successfully listed on Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”), raising
$5,000,000 before costs.
MATTERS SUBSEQUENT TO THE REPORTING YEAR
On 6 September 2019, Aldoro entered into a binding option agreement to acquire 100% of Altilium Metals Limited
(“Altilium”). Altilium holds a series of advanced exploration projects in the Murchison Region of Western Australia
including the Penny South Gold Project in the Youanmi Gold Mining District and the multi-commodity Narndee Project
Area.
The Penny South Gold Project lies directly to the south of the Penny West Gold Project owned by Spectrum Metals
(ASX:SPX) and contains over 2.5km strike extension of the Penny West Shear, that hosts the historic high-grade Penny
West Gold Mine. Like the Penny West area, tenement E57/1045 contains limited outcrop and is overlain by 1m to 30m
of sand and sedimentary cover. The average depth of historic drilling within the Penny South Gold Project is less than
40m down hole. Aldoro intends to utilise a similar exploration strategy to that successfully implemented by Spectrum
Metals at Penny West to test surface anomalies at depth.

Company comprise of the Board of Directors, and at present there are no other persons employed by the Company in
an executive capacity.
The Company’s broad remuneration policy is to ensure the remuneration package properly reflects the person’s

B
Remuneration Governance, Structure and Approvals
Remuneration of Directors is currently set by the Board of Directors. The Board has not established a separate
Remuneration Committee at this point in the Company’s development, nor has the Board engaged the services of an
external remuneration consultant. It is considered that the size of the Board along with the level of activity of the
Company renders this impractical. The Board is primarily responsible for:
The over-arching executive remuneration framework;
•
• Operation of the incentive plans which apply to executive directors and senior executives, including key
performance indicators and performance hurdles;
• Remuneration levels of executives; and
• Non-Executive Director fees.
11 | P a g e
Aldoro Resources Limited – Annual Report 2019
Directors’ Report
Their objective is to ensure that remuneration policies and structures are fair and competitive and aligned with the
long-term interests of the Company.
Non-Executive Remuneration Structure
The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors consists of Directors’ fees. The total aggregate fixed sum per annum to
be paid to Non-Executive Directors in accordance with the Company’s Constitution shall be no more than A$300,000
and may be varied by ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in a General Meeting.
Remuneration of Non-Executive Directors is based on fees approved by the Board of Directors and is set at levels to
reflect market conditions and encourage the continued services of the Directors. The chair’s fees are determined
independently to the fees of the Non-Executive Director’s based on comparative roles in the external market. In
accordance with the Company’s Constitution, the Directors may at any time, subject to the Listing Rules, adopt any
scheme or plan which they consider to be in the interests of the Company and which is designed to provide
superannuation benefits for both present and future Non-Executive Directors, and they may from time to time vary
this scheme or plan.
The remuneration of Non-Executive is detailed in Table 1 and their contractual arrangements are disclosed in “Section
E – Service Agreements”.
Remuneration may also include an invitation to participate in share-based incentive programmes in accordance with
Company policy.
The nature and amount of remuneration is collectively considered by the Board of Directors with reference to relevant
employment conditions and fees commensurate to a company of similar size and level of activity, with the overall
objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of high performing Directors.
Executive Remuneration Structure
The nature and amount of remuneration of executives are assessed on a periodic basis with the overall objective of
ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of high performance Directors.
The main objectives sought when reviewing executive remuneration is that the Company has:
Coherent remuneration policies and practices to attract and retain Executives;
Executives who will create value for shareholders;
Competitive remuneration offered benchmarked against the external market; and
Fair and responsible rewards to Executives having regard to the performance of the Company, the
performance of the Executives and the general pay environment.

Relationship between Remuneration and Company Performance
Given the current phase of the Company’s development, the Board does not consider earnings during the current
financial year when determining, and in relation to, the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP.
The pay and reward framework for key management personnel may consist of the following areas:
a) Fixed Remuneration – base salary
b) Variable Short-Term Incentives
c) Variable Long-Term Incentives
The combination of these would comprise the key management personnel’s total remuneration.
12 | P a g e
Aldoro Resources Limited – Annual Report 2019
Directors’ Report
a)
Fixed Remuneration – Base Salary
The fixed remuneration for each KMP is influenced by the nature and responsibilities of each role and
knowledge, skills and experience required for each position. Fixed remuneration provides a base level of
remuneration which is market competitive and comprises a base salary inclusive of statutory superannuation.
It is structured as a total employment cost package.
Key management personnel are offered a competitive base salary that comprises the fixed component of pay
and rewards. External remuneration consultants may provide analysis and advice to ensure base pay is set to
reflect the market for a comparable role. No external advice was taken during the financial year. Base salary for
key management personnel is reviewed annually to ensure the KMP’s pay is competitive with the market. The
pay of key management personnel is also reviewed on promotion. There is no guaranteed pay increase
included in any key management personnel’s contract.
Variable Remuneration – Short -Term Incentives (STI)
Discretionary cash bonuses may be paid to KMP annually, subject to the requisite Board and shareholder
approvals where applicable. No bonus payments were made during the financial year.
Variable Remuneration – Long-Term Incentives (LTI)
Options are issued at the Board’s discretion. There have been no options issued to KMP at the date of this
financial report.

Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a)
Reporting Entity
Aldoro Resources Limited (referred to as “Aldoro” or the “Company”) is a company domiciled in Australia. The
address of the Company’s registered office and principal place of business is disclosed in the Corporate
Directory of the Annual Report. The financial statements are presented in Australian Dollars, which is Aldoro
Resources Limited’s functional and presentation currency.
(b)
Basis of Preparation
Statement of compliance
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance
with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board
(“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial statements comply with International Financial
Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Aldoro
Resources Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.
The annual report was authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 23 September 2019.
Basis of measurement
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with the historical cost
convention, unless otherwise stated.
New, revised or amended standards and interpretations adopted by the Company
The Company has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations
issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) that are mandatory for the current reporting
year.
• AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers; and
• AASB 9 Financial Instruments.
The new accounting policies are disclosed below. There is no impact on the Company for the year ended 30
June 2019 and the prior year financial statements did not have to be restated as a result.
(i) AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with Customers
AASB 15 Revenue from contracts with Customers replaces AASB 118 Revenue. AASB 15 was adopted by the
Company on 1 July 2018. AASB 15 provides a single, principles-based five-step model to be applied to all
contracts with customers.
The Company has considered AASB 15 in detail and determined that the impact on the Company’s sales
revenue from contracts under AASB 15 is insignificant on transition date, 1 July 2018, and at reporting date 30
June 2019.
(ii)AASB 9 Financial Instruments
AASB 9 Financial Instruments replaces the provisions of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and
Measurement that relate to the recognition, classification and measurement of financial assets and financial
liabilities, derecognition of financial instruments, impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting.
The adoption of AASB 9 Financial Instruments from 1 July 2018 did not give rise to any material transitional
adjustments on transition date, 1 July 2018, and at reporting date 30 June 2019.
23 | P a g e
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Aldoro Resources Limited – Annual Report 2019
Classification and measurement
Except for certain trade receivables the Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the
case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.
Under AASB 9 financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), amortised
cost, or fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). The classification is based on two criteria: The
Company’s business model for managing the assets; and whether the instruments’ contractual cash flows
represent ‘solely payments of principal and interest’ on the principal amount outstanding (the ‘SPPI criterion’).
The adoption of AASB 9 Financial Instruments from 1 July 2018 did not give rise to any material transitional
adjustments on transition date, 1 July 2018, and at reporting date 30 June 2019.
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current
classification.
An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in
the Company's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be
realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted
from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other
assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the Company's normal operating
cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting
period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the
reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Equity Instruments
Where the Company’s management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in
OCI, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the
derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognised in the profit or
loss as other income when the Company’s right to receive payments is established.
Impairment
From 1 July 2018 the Company assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses (ECLs) associated
with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. ECLs are based on the difference between the
contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to
receive. The shortfall is then discounted at an approximation to the asset’s original effective interest rate.
The Company assesses at each balance date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group
of financial assets is impaired. For trade and other receivables, the Company applies the simplified approach
permitted by AASB 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the
receivables. The expected credit losses on these financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix based
on the Company’s historical credit loss experience.

and Title
AASB 16
Leases
Summary
AASB 16 eliminates the operating and finance lease classifications for lessees current accounted
for under AASB 117 Leases. It instead requires an entity to bring most leases onto its balance
sheet in a similar way to how existing finance leases are treated under AASB 117. An entity will
be required to recognise a lease liability and a right of use asset in its balance sheet for most
leases. Subject to exceptions, a 'right-of-use' asset will be capitalised in the statement of
financial position, measured at the present value of the unavoidable future lease payments to
be made over the lease term. Subject to exceptions, a 'right-of-use' asset will be capitalised in
the statement of financial position, measured at the present value of the unavoidable future
lease payments to be made over the lease term.
The exceptions relate to short-term leases of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets
(such as personal computers and small office furniture) where an accounting policy choice exists
whereby either a 'right-of-use' asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to profit or
loss as incurred.
A liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised, adjusted for lease
prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any
future restoration, removal or dismantling costs.
Straight-line operating lease expense recognition will be replaced with a depreciation charge for
the leased asset (included in operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease
liability (included in finance costs).
In the earlier periods of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease under AASB 16 will be
higher when compared to lease expenses under AASB 117. However, EBITDA (Earnings Before
Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results will be improved as the operating expense
is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss under AASB 16.
For classification within the statement of cash flows, the lease payments will be separated into
both a principal (financing activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities)
component. For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor
accounts for leases.
Significant Judgements and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company’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 in Note 2.
(c)
Comparatives
As the Company was incorporated on 21 November 2017, comparative information is from 21 November 2017
to 30 June 2018.
(d)
Dividends
Dividends are recognised when declared during the financial year and no longer at the discretion of the
Company.
25 | P a g e
Aldoro Resources Limited – Annual Report 2019
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 2
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS 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 in these financial statements that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment
to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are disclosed below.
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.
NOTE 3
SEGMENT INFORMATION
Identification of reportable operating segments
The information reported to the Board of Directors (being the Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”), are the
results as shown in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income and Statement of Financial
Position.
The Directors have determined that there are no operating segments identified for the year which are considered
separately reportable.

Accounting Policy
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled in
exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the Company: identifies
the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract; determines the transaction price
which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction
price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct
good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a
manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised.
Variable consideration within the transaction price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the customer such as
discounts, rebates and refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from the customer and any other contingent events.
Such estimates are determined using either the 'expected value' or 'most likely amount' method. The measurement of
variable consideration is subject to a constraining principle whereby revenue will only be recognised to the extent that
it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. The
measurement constraint continues until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently
resolved. Amounts received that are subject to the constraining principle are initially recognised as deferred revenue
in the form of a separate refund liability.
Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the goods,
which is generally at the time of delivery.
Rendering of services
Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised over time as the services are rendered based on either a
fixed price or an hourly rate.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method.
Other revenue
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.

Potential deferred tax assets attributable to tax losses and other temporary differences have not been brought to
account at 30 June 2019 because the directors do not believe it is appropriate to regard realisation of the deferred tax
assets as probable at this point in time. These benefits will only be obtained if:
•
•
the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit
from the deductions for the expenditure to be realised; and
no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the benefit from the deductions for the
expenditure.

Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 6
INCOME TAX (continued)
Accounting Policy
The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax
expense (income).
Current Tax
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using
applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax
liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant
taxation authority.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year
as well as unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or
loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of
assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where
amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be
recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no
effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the
asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the
reporting period. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle
the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that
it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be
utilised.
Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint
ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary
difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that
net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and
liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or
different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of
the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or
liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
NOTE 7
LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing net loss for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of
the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the
Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average
number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into
ordinary shares.

Basic Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net profit or loss after income tax attributable to members of the
Company, 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 year.
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.

Other receivables are non-interesting bearing and are generally on terms of 30 days.
Trade Receivables
Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the
ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period
are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets. Refer to Note 1(b)(ii) for
expected credit loss allowance assessment.
Goods and Services Tax (‘GST’)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is
not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost
of acquisition of the asset of the assets or part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST
recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as a current asset or liability in the Statement of
Financial Position.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST on investing and financial
activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
Other Receivables
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for expected credit loss. Other receivables do
not contain impaired assets and are not past due. Based on the credit history, it is expected that these other balances
will be received when due.

Acquisition, exploration and evaluation costs associated with mining tenements are accumulated in respect of each
identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that the company’s rights of tenure to
that area of interest are current and that the costs are expected to be recouped through the successful commercial
development or sale of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable
assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves.
Costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the period in which the decision to
abandon the area is made.
Each area of interest is also reviewed annually, and acquisition costs written off to the extent that they will not be
recoverable in the future.

CONTRIBUTED EQUITY (continued)
Accounting Policy
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Aldoro Resources Limited – Annual Report 2019
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. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition
of a business are not included in the cost of the acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.
If the Company reacquires its own equity instruments, for example, as a result of a share buy-back, those instruments
are deducted from equity and the associated shares are cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss
and the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is recognised
directly in equity.
NOTE 13
FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk and
interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s overall risk management programme focuses on the
unpredictability of the financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance
of the Company. The Company uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is
exposed. These include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange risk and assessments of
market forecasts for interest rate and foreign exchange prices. Ageing analysis and monitoring of specific credit
allowances are undertaken to manage credit risk. Liquidity risk is monitored through the development of future cash
flow forecasts.
Risk management is carried out by Management and overseen by the Board of Directors with assistance from suitably
qualified external advisors.
The main risks arising for the Company are foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The
Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.
The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:
Financial Assets
Cash and cash equivalents
Trade and other receivables

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)
Interest rate risk
(ii)
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a
result of changes in the market interest rates on interest bearing financial instruments. The Company’s exposure to
this risk relates primarily to the Company’s cash and any cash on deposit. The Company does not use derivatives to
mitigate these exposures. The Company manages its exposure to interest rate risk by holding certain amounts of cash
in fixed and floating interest rate facilities. At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Company’s interest-
bearing financial instruments was:

Sensitivity
Within the analysis, consideration is given to potential renewals of existing positions and the mix of fixed and variable
interest rates. The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at the
reporting date. The 1% increase and 1% decrease in rates is based on reasonably expected possible changes over a
financial year.
At 30 June 2019, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant,
equity would have been affected as follows:

Profit

(2,060)
Credit risk
(b)
Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Company, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade and other
receivables and other financial assets. The Company’s exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of the
counterparty, with maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of the financial assets.
The Company’s policy is to trade only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. It is the Company’s policy that all
customers who wish to trade on credit terms will be subject to credit verification procedures.
In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Company’s exposure to bad
debts is not significant. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Company except for cash and
cash equivalents.
Liquidity risk
(c)
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The
Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity
to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or
risking damage to its reputation.
The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves from funds raised in the market and by
continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows. The Company does not have any external borrowings.
The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities:

• Safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders
and benefits for other stakeholders; and
• Maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the number of dividends paid to
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
Given the stage of the Company’s development there are no formal targets set for return on capital. The Company is
not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. The net equity of the Company is equivalent to capital. Net
capital is obtained through capital raisings on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”).

EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE
On 6 September 2019, Aldoro entered into a binding option agreement to acquire 100% of Altilium Metals Limited
(“Altilium”). Altilium holds a series of advanced exploration projects in the Murchison Region of Western Australia
including the Penny South Gold Project in the Youanmi Gold Mining District and the multi-commodity Narndee Project
Area.
The Penny South Gold Project lies directly to the south of the Penny West Gold Project owned by Spectrum Metals
(ASX:SPX) and contains over 2.5km strike extension of the Penny West Shear, that hosts the historic high-grade Penny
West Gold Mine. Like the Penny West area, tenement E57/1045 contains limited outcrop and is overlain by 1m to 30m
of sand and sedimentary cover. The average depth of historic drilling within the Penny South Gold Project is less than
40m down hole. Aldoro intends to utilise a similar exploration strategy to that successfully implemented by Spectrum
Metals at Penny West to test surface anomalies at depth.
The key terms of the acquisition are as follows:
• Aldoro will pay a $50,000 option fee to secure the exclusive option to acquire 100% of the issued share
•
•
capital of Altilium.
If the option is exercised, at completion Aldoro will issue Altilium shareholders a total of 10,800,000 fully paid
ordinary shares to acquire all outstanding shares in Altilium Metals Limited at a deemed price of $0.15 per
share.
1,000,000 unquoted options each exercisable within three (3) years from the date of issue, upon payment of
an exercise price of $0.225 to acquire one fully paid ordinary shares in ARN (GVC options).
Caedmon Marriott and Rhod Grivas to join the Board of Aldoro at completion of the acquisition.
•
• Aldoro will assume a maximum of up to $250,000 of liabilities and debts held by Altilium consisting of
$100,000 payment to the original vendors of the Narndee and Windimurra Projects, and up to $150,000 of
outstanding creditors.
Issue of 1,200,000 facilitator shares to Xcel Capital Pty Ltd.
•
Legal and technical due diligence on the acquisition is being undertaken. Completion of the acquisition and the issue
of Aldoro shares to the vendors and facilitators remains subject to shareholder and regulatory approval.
Aldoro has finalised binding terms for a share placement to raise capital for exploration activities and working capital
which was very well supported by the Altilium vendors in addition to the Aldoro directors who have subscribed for
$90,000 of the placement (subject to shareholder approval). The Company will issue 4,333,333 shares at $0.15 per
share to raise $650,000 (before costs) which represents a premium of 12.8% to the 20-day VWAP. On 18 September
2019, the Company issued 3,733,332 fully paid ordinary shares to professional and sophisticated investors at an issue
price of A$0.15 per share.
Other than stated above, there has been no other matter or circumstance that has arisen since the end of the financial
year that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Company, the results of those
operations, or the state of affairs of the Company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF
ALDORO RESOURCES LIMITED
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Aldoro Resources Limited (the Company), which comprises the statement
of financial position as at 30 June 2019, the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the
statement of changes in equity and the 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 Company is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001,
including:
(i)
Giving a true and fair view of the Company's financial position as at 30 June 2019 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 Company 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.

and
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included
in the Company's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, 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 Corporations 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 Company 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 Company or to cease operations, or have no
realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and
Assurance Standards Board website at: http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf. This
description forms part of our auditor's report.

Corporate Governance Statement
This Corporate Governance Statement is current as at 23 September 2019 and has been approved by the Board of the Company on that date.
This Corporate Governance Statement discloses the extent to which the Company will, as at the date it is admitted to the official list of the ASX, follow the recommendations set
by the ASX Corporate Governance Council in its publication Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (Recommendations). The Recommendations are not
mandatory, however the Recommendations that will not be followed have been identified and reasons provided for not following them along with what (if any) alternative
governance practices the Company intends to adopt in lieu of the recommendation.
The Company has adopted a Corporate Governance Plan which provides the written terms of reference for the Company’s corporate governance duties.
Due to the current size and nature of the existing Board and the magnitude of the Company’s operations, the Board does not consider that the Company will gain any benefit from
individual Board committees and that its resources would be better utilised in other areas as the Board is of the strong view that at this stage the experience and skill set of the
current Board is sufficient to perform these roles. Under the Company’s Board Charter, the duties that would ordinarily be assigned to individual committees are currently carried
out by the full Board under the written terms of reference for those committees.
The Company’s Corporate Governance Plan is available on the Company’s website at www.aldororesources.com.
