Chairman’s Letter

The  past  12  months  have  seen  the  continued 
evolution  to  the  strategic  future  that  we  envisaged 
for  the  Company  as  a  result  of  the  corporate 
reorganisation  of  Peako  Limited  (some  years  ago 
now),  with  a  focus  of  exploration  activities  in 
Western Australia. The Company originally centred 
its interest on the Broadhurst project in the Paterson 
region, but in the recent years, we have focussed on 
our Eastman tenement in the East Kimberley. 

We  saw  a  future  for  Peako  in  base  metals, 
predicated  on  our  positive  perception  of 
the 
attractiveness  of  emerging  concepts  for  innovative 
forms  of  energy  generation,  storage,  transmission 
and  usage.  We  have  since  expanded  the  original 
vision  that  we  saw  for  the  East  Kimberley  to  also 
encompass  the  search  for  gold  and  rare  earths  in 
the region.  

WorldView-3  data,  integrated  with  historical  data, 
was used to generate a suite of targets and to plan 
an  intensive  field  campaign  which  commenced  in 
April 2021, as soon as the wet season ended, and 
is now in the process of concluding.  

A key outcome of our data compilation work during 
the  first  half  of  the  year  was  the  recognition  of  a 
latent gold potential across the Eastman E80/4990 
tenement  which  we  consider  to  have  been  widely 
overlooked  by  past  explorers.  This  led  us  to  apply 
for  additional 
to 
tenements  during 
encompass areas identified as having prospectivity 
for  gold.  The  Operations  Review  in  this  Annual 
Report includes a map showing our East Kimberley 
tenement  holdings  and  gives  an  indication  of  the 
strength  and  extent  of  our  conviction  in  regard  to 
these new application areas. 

the  year 

Our  Operations  Review  in  this  Annual  Report 
contains a summary of the activities in each of our 
project areas, including our original tenements in the 
Paterson region, which were part of the Company’s 
portfolio on its formation and at its subsequent listing 
on the ASX. 

Our  activities  in  the  past  year  were  substantially 
focused  on  our  tenements  in  the  East  Kimberley, 
albeit with some limitations in respect to field work 
during the first half as a result of travel and border 
the  COVID-19 
restrictions  brought  about  by 
this 
pandemic.  However,  we  did  not  allow 
impediment to unduly restrict our exploration efforts, 
as during this period we used other exploration tools 
not affected by border restrictions. We embraced a 
phase  of  digital  capture  of  historical  data  from 
exploration  undertaken  by  many  explorers  over 
more than 40 years in the Eastman area in order to 
maximise our knowledge of geology and to develop 
to  define  and 
potential  mineralisation  models 
prioritise targets.  We invested in a SQL database 
that  empowers  streamlined  workflows  for  data 
capture and will maximise data integration to drive 
our  geological  understanding  across  our  tenement 
areas. 

We  acquired  new  data  across  our  granted  East 
Kimberley 
tenements  via  Worldview-3  Satellite 
imagery,  with  specialist  geo-scientific  spectral 
processing  undertaken  by  Exploration  Mapping 
Group, Inc. in the United States. Interpretation of the 

For  the  foreseeable  future,  our  strategy  is  one  of 
exploration 
to  discover,  prove  and  develop 
resources in our own right. There was a time when 
this was impractical and unworkable because of the 
lack  of  depth  of  funding  for  junior  companies  in 
Australia. At least for the foreseeable future this is 
no longer the case. I am confident that our Company 
can  carry  a  discovery  on  to  proof  of  resource, 
through  to  development  and  into  production.  Our 
challenge is to make the discovery! 

I have pleasure in welcoming to our Board, Dr Paul 
Kitto. Dr Kitto has a wealth of experience within the 
mining industry in Australia and internationally and

Operations Report 

Over the past 12 months, Peako has focused on advancing its East Kimberley project, culminating in an 
intensive field program that commenced in April 2021.   

East Kimberley Project 

Peako’s  East  Kimberley  Project  covers  an  area  of  3,335  km2.  It  is  made  up  of  two  granted  tenements 
(E80/4990 and E80/5182) and five areas under application (E80/5346, E80/5472, E80/5220, E80/5623 and 
E80/5624) (Figure 1).  

Figure 1 Peako’s East Kimberley Tenement Package 

Historically, systematic exploration across the East Kimberley has lagged behind many of Australia’s other 
Proterozoic  provinces.  Past  exploration  programs  across  the  Project  area  have  generally  been  sporadic 
campaigns,  incorporating  numerous  explorers  across  multiple  commodities  and  fragmented,  non-
contiguous tenement holdings.  

Historical exploration was primarily guided by occurrences of surface gossan and geochemical anomalies. 
It has provided consistent encouragement of the area’s economic potential. At the same time, discovery 
efforts have been hindered by a mix of cover, subcrop, poorly understood regolith, deep weathering and 
complex  stratigraphy/structure,  despite  highly  favourable  host  rocks,  structure  and  known  mineralisation 
across the area.

Geological Setting 

The Eastman (E80/4990) and Wirana (E80/5182) tenements host a diverse Paleoproterozoic succession 
that is widely intruded by multiple granitoid phases and deformed by multiple orogenic episodes. The area 
represents the western-most window of the Halls Creek Orogen where volcanic successions of the bimodal 
Koongie Park Formation (KPF) volcanic belt (c. 1845 Ma) and the Lamboo Ultramafic (LUM) intrusive belt 
(c. 1850-1835 Ma) are well developed.  

Recently acquired satellite imagery together with rock geochemistry define an array of multistage, poorly 
constrained granitoid intrusions across the tenements, with compositions that include granite, granodiorite, 
diorite, monzogranite and granophyre.  

The geological diversity within the tenement package has driven the search for a wide range of commodities 
by present and past explorers. The Koongie Park Formation has demonstrated prospectivity for base (Cu-
Pb-Zn) and precious (Ag, Au) metals with postulated mineralisation styles varying from VHMS to SVAL-
hybrid styles, to epithermal and skarnoid mineralisation associated with widespread carbonate facies in the 
KPF stratigraphy. In addition, mafic to ultramafic intrusions of the Lamboo Ultramafic Complex (LUM) have 
demonstrated  prospectivity  for  base  metal  (Ni,  Cu)  and  precious  (Au,  PGE)  metals  with  potential 
mineralisation styles varying across magmatic, cumulate to intrusion or orogenic-related gold associated 
with deep crustal-tapping fertile structures. 

Tenement  application  E80/5520  is  located  35km  west  of  Halls  Creek  (Figure  1)  in  an  area  that  has 
undergone  minimal  historical  exploration  due  to  widespread  Cenozoic  cover  sequences.  Interpreted 
geology identifies fertile LUM rock types with known gold, nickel and base metal prospects in exposed areas 
adjacent to the tenement.  

A  major  500km  long  NE-SW  trending  fault  system  (Springvale-Billabong  Fault)  is  interpreted  in  central 
portions of the E80/5520 tenement and could provide a splayed structural setting prospective for structurally 
localised gold systems, similar to those observed at Nicholsons gold mine some 20 kms to south (Figure 
1). 

Tenement applications E80/5623 and E80/5624 cover the regional extensions of the NE trending structures 
observed in field mapping across the E80/4990 tenement. 

WorldView-3 Imagery 

Between July and August 2020 high-resolution WorldView-3 satellite survey was collected and processed 
across E80/4990 and E80/5182.  

Interpretation of the WorldView-3 imagery, integrated with historical map and data constraints, has assisted 
the definition of the complex geology and structure that characterise this part of the Halls Creek Orogen. 
Importantly, the imagery has provided constraints from shortwave infra-red (SWIR) bands to identify areas 
with clay, propylitic, silica and iron related alteration to assist target generation.  

Collectively, some 60 target areas were defined at Eastman for ground follow-up, with around 25 of the 
highest priority target areas having potential for gold, copper, zinc, nickel and PGE mineralisation.  

5 

2020 Field Program 

Field activities during 2020 were restricted to a narrow time window in September due to COVID-19 border 
restrictions. The delay of the 2020 field program provided an opportunity to integrate WorldView-3 data and 
captured  historical  datasets  to  define  and  implement  a  strategic  and  focused  field  campaign  targeting  a 
subset of priority targets, prior to the onset of the wet season. 

First pass reconnaissance field validation of priority target areas across the Eastman tenement commenced 
in mid-September and ran smoothly in response to the short time window available before the onset of the 
wet season.  

Samples of country rock, quartz vein and vein stockwork material collected across the target areas were 
submitted for assay.  Sampling results were highly encouraging and confirmed both the gold and base metal 
potential at several target areas. 

2021 Field Program 

Peako commenced field activities in April 2021 following conclusion of the wet season. The strategy was to 
evaluate the widely identified but often overlooked latent gold potential recorded in historical exploration 
data. For many past explorers, gold was peripheral to their base metal and PGE exploration focus at a time 
when many explorers did not analyse soil, rock or drill samples for gold.

New Vein Systems 

Two  new  mineralised  vein  systems  were  discovered  early  in  the  field  season  during  ground  truthing 
reconnaissance work following-up on a gold surface sample recorded in the historical data. Located in the 
east of the E80/4990 Eastman tenement, Peako has named these vein systems Appaloosa and Gypsy.  

Rock chip assay results confirm the systems to be mineralised with assays up to 12.7g/t Au at Appaloosa 
and 1.2g/t Au at Gypsy.  

An additional new vein system has been identified south of the Appaloosa area Peako has named “Shire” 
(refer Figure 2) which is also confirmed as mineralised by assays from rock chip samples. 

Figure 2 New Mineralised Vein System Discoveries 

7 

Appaloosa Mapping 

A campaign of detailed mapping at 1:2,500 scale was completed at Appaloosa (Figure 4) in conjunction 
with 1:10,000 scale interpretation of the easternmost parts of the E80/4990 tenement. The resulting maps 
defined a structurally complex mafic-ultramafic host rock sequence with multistage intrusions as a broad 
host rock framework for potential mineralisation. 

Figure 3 Geological map of the Appaloosa area and location of quartz-carbonate and gossanous veins 
that contain gold grades up to 12.7g/t  

At Appaloosa, outcropping mineralised gossanous quartz veins were mapped over an approximate 400m 
strike length. Importantly, Peako’s recent rock chip results not only confirm the presence of high-grade gold 
veins but also demonstrate the occurrence of multiple to stacked outcropping mineralised gossanous veins. 
Rock chip results from Appaloosa currently define the veins as outcropping over a 200m strike, with veins 
having gold grades that vary from 0.39g/t Au up to 12.7g/t Au.  

The outcropping mineralised veins at Appaloosa occur as narrow (up to 20cm) discontinuous veins within 
propylitic epidote altered massive gabbro. The veins can be continuous in strike over 15m but are mostly 
poorly exposed. Mineralised veins typically strike north to northeast with an east to southeast dip between 
45° to 70°. The mineralised veins are composed of grey quartz intermixed with goethitic boxwork likely after 
pyrite and arsenopyrite-rich sulphides.  

The  current  geological  configuration,  together  with  assay  results,  potentially  indicate  a  NE-trending 
mineralised corridor of over a 200-400m strike.

Aircore Drilling 

A suite of priority target areas were defined on the Eastman tenement for follow-up and drill testing during 
the 2021 field season.  

Peako’s aircore program was designed to test for geochemical anomalies in 10 targets across 7 separate 
areas that were defined from an array of prospective geological features including anomalous base metal 
and gold geochemistry (soil, rock, drilling), geophysics (VTEM, magnetics), prospective structure, as well 
as encouraging satellite imagery spectral indicators. Mineralisation styles tested by aircore geochemistry 
vary  between  the  target  areas  from  structural  to  intrusion-related  gold-copper  targets  to  extensions  of 
ultramafic rocks below cover sequences with potential for Cu-Ni-PGE mineralisation. In addition, a number 
of areas tested by our 2021 aircore program were designed to confirm and/or extend target areas where 
historical soil geochemistry programs had previously identified base metal anomalism but where previous 
explorers did not analyse for gold. 

The  drilling  was  carried  out  at  Eastman  between  April  and  July  2021.  A  total  of  473  aircore  holes  were 
completed  for  3,014m.  The  total  meterage  was  lower  than  anticipated  due  to  shallow  cover  and  more 
extensive subcrop than previously recognised.  

Figure 4 Summary of 2021 Field Season Activities to 30 June 2021 

EIS Funding 

Peako’s 2021 aircore drilling activities were supported by two Western Australian Government Exploration 
Incentive Scheme (“EIS”) co-funded drilling grants totalling $320,000. The Round 21 EIS grant is for an 
amount of $150,000 for 50% of direct drilling costs incurred prior to 30 June 2021. The Round 22 grant is 
for a further $150,000 amount for 50% of direct drilling costs incurred prior to 31 December 2021, as well 
as up to $20,000 towards mobilisation costs.

Exploration Pipeline – Wirana E80/5182 

The  Wirana  (E80/5182)  tenement  incorporates  an  area  of  421.9  km2  contiguous  to  Peako’s  Eastman 
(E80/4990) tenement (Figure 1). Regional geology and recently completed WorldView-3 imagery over the 
tenement confirm the area to contain prospective host rock sequences including LUM, Marboo Formation 
and numerous granitoid intrusions of undefined affiliation. The tenement has a widespread suite of historical 
base  and  precious  metal  prospects  (Figure  5)  and  has  only  undergone  precursory  work  by  historical 
explorers. 

First pass access and logistics field review was completed over the Wirana tenement during June 2021 to 
develop a reconnaissance rock sampling program over key prospects planned for later in the field season. 
The review established the presence of reasonable vehicular access to the eastern and northern parts of 
the tenement and also upgraded the existing track to the central southern parts of the tenement including 
the historical BHP Gossan 15 prospect.

Paterson Province, Western Australia 

Peako’s Broadhurst (Sunday Creek) Project tenement is located in the Rudall River area of the Paterson 
province of Western Australia (Figure 6). Peako also has three long standing applications for exploration 
licences located close to its Broadhurst Project tenement. Historical geological mapping indicates bedrock 
geology of the project area is largely carbonaceous shales and siltstones of the Broadhurst Formation, and 
lesser quartz sandstone and siltstone of the underlying Coolbro Sandstone Formation. 

Figure 6 The Sunday Creek - Broadhurst Tenement Area in the Paterson Province, Western Australia.  

The Broadhurst tenement is under-explored and hosts an array of encouraging features that indicate the 
potential of the area for Nifty (Cu) or Maroochydore (Cu-Co) style mineralisation. Historic exploration has 
been  minimal  and  fragmented,  comprising  a  ‘revolving  door’  of  explorers,  divided  in  commodity  focus 
between Base Metals or Uranium. Only very limited, precursory drilling has been completed on the tenement 
(a  total  of  6  holes  for  1,243m)  all  testing  for  Uranium,  with  base  metal  mineralisation  targets  in  the 
Broadhurst Formation remaining untested. 

A  program  of  field  mapping,  reconnaissance  and  rock  chip  and  soil  sampling  was  planned  across  the 
tenement during the year. The program was delayed due to Native Title consultation and is now scheduled 
to occur in early 2022.

Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the Year Ended 30 June 2021 

Note 1: Statement of significant accounting policies 

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial report is a general-purpose financial 
report,  which  has  been  prepared  in  accordance 
with  the  requirements  of  the  Corporations  Act 
2001,  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations 
and  other  requirements  of  the  law.  The  financial 
report has also been prepared on a historical cost 
basis.    The  Parent  Entity  is  registered  and 
domiciled in Australia.

Going concern 
For  the  year  ended  30  June  2021  the  Group 
incurred  a  net  cash  outflow  from  operating  and 
investing  activities  of  $2,081,558 
(2020: 
$695,422)  and  a  net  loss  after  tax  of  $714,743 
(2020: $487,110). As at 30 June 2021, the Group 
has positive working capital of $1,154,257 (2020: 
negative $196,593). 

The financial report has been prepared on a 
going concern basis. The Group raised 
$2,574,000 (before costs) in a share placement 
and share placement plan; both completed 
during July 2021. Directors expect that the Group 
will continue to meet its debts, if and when they 
fall due, for at least 12 months from the signing 
of the annual financial report. 

(b) Adoption of new and revised standards
Changes in accounting policies on initial
application of Accounting Standards

The Group has adopted all of the new and revised 
Accounting  Standards  issued  by  the  Australian 
Accounting  Standards  Board  (AASB)  that  are 
relevant to its operations and effective for annual 
reporting periods beginning on 1 July 2020.

recognise any additional amounts as an expense 
as the entity benefits from the expenditure – either 
by  applying  AASB  138  or  applying  another 
accounting standard.  
The impact of this decision has not had a material 
impact on the group’s financial statements.

Note 1: Statement of significant accounting policies (continued) 

All  transactions  and  balances  between  Group 
companies  are  eliminated  on  consolidation,

necessary 
accounting policies adopted by the Group.  

Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of 
subsidiaries  acquired  or  disposed  of  during  the 
year  are  recognised  from  the  effective  date  of 
acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, 
as applicable. 

Non-controlling  interests,  presented  as  part  of 
equity,  represent  the  portion  of  a  subsidiary’s 
profit or loss and net assets that is not held by the 
Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive 
income  or  loss  of  subsidiaries  between  the 
owners  of  the  parent  and  the  non-controlling 
interests  based  on  their  respective  ownership 
interests.     

(e) Exploration and evaluation

Exploration  and  evaluation  assets,  including  the 
costs  of  acquiring  tenements,  are  capitalised  as 
exploration  and  evaluation  assets  on  an  area  of 
interest basis.  Exploration and evaluation assets 
are  only  recognised  if  the  rights  to  tenure  of  the 
area of interest are current and either: 

(i)

from successful development or by sale

(f) Revenue recognition

Revenue  is  recognised  to  the  extent  that  it  is 
probable that the economic benefits will flow to the 
Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. 
The following specific recognition criteria must also 
be met before revenue is recognised:

equivalents  are  short 
liquid 
investments  that  are  readily  convertible  to  known 
amounts  of  cash  and  which  are  subject  to  an 
insignificant risk of changes in value.  Temporary 
bank overdrafts are included in cash at bank and 
in  hand.  Permanent  bank  overdrafts  are  shown 
within  borrowings  in  current  liabilities  in  the 
statement of financial position.

28 

Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the Year Ended 30 June 2021 

Note 1: Statement of significant accounting policies (continued) 

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, 
cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and 
cash equivalents as defined above, net of 
outstanding bank overdrafts. 

(h) Income tax

Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at 
the amount expected to be recovered from or paid 
to  the  taxation  authorities.  The  tax  rates  and  tax 
laws  used  to  compute  the  amount  are  those  that 
are  enacted  or  substantively  enacted  by  the 
balance date. 

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary 
differences  at  the  balance  date  between  the  tax 
bases  of  assets  and  liabilities  and  their  carrying 
amounts for financial reporting purposes. 

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all 
taxable temporary differences except: 

•

•

when  the  deferred  income  tax  liability  arises
from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an
asset or liability in a transaction that is not a
business combination and that, at the time of
the transaction, affects neither the accounting
profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
when  the  taxable  temporary  difference  is
associated  with  investments  in  controlled
entities,  associates  or 
joint
ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the
temporary difference can be controlled and it
is probable that the temporary difference will
not reverse in the foreseeable future.

interests 

in 

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all 
deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of 
unused  tax  assets  and  unused  tax  losses,  to  the 
extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be 
available  against  which  the  deductible  temporary 
differences  and  the  carry-forward  of  unused  tax 
credits  and  unused  tax  losses  can  be  utilised, 
except: 

• when the deferred income tax asset relating
to the deductible temporary difference arises
from the initial recognition of an asset or
liability in a transaction that is not a business
combination and, at the time of the
transaction, affects neither the accounting
profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

interests 

• when  the  deductible  temporary  difference  is
associated  with  investments  in  controlled
entities,  associates  or 
joint
ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset
is  only  recognised  to  the  extent  that  it  is
probable  that  the  temporary  difference  will
reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable
profit  will  be  available  against  which  the
temporary difference can be utilised.

in 

The  carrying  amount  of  deferred  income  tax 
assets  is  reviewed  at  each  balance  date  and 
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable 
that  sufficient  taxable  profit  will  be  available  to 
allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset 
to be utilised. 

Unrecognised  deferred  income  tax  assets  are 
reassessed  at  each  balance  date  and  are 
recognised  to  the  extent  that  it  has  become 
probable  that  future  taxable  profit  will  allow  the 
deferred tax asset to be recovered. 

Deferred  income  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are 
measured  at  the  tax  rates  that  are  expected  to 
apply  to  the  financial  period  when  the  asset  is 
realised  or  the  liability  is  settled,  based  on  tax 
rates  (and  tax  laws)  that  have  been  enacted  or 
substantively enacted at the balance date. 

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities 
are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists 
to set off current tax assets against current tax 
liabilities and the deferred tax assets and 
liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the 
same taxation authority. 

(i) Other taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised 
net of the amount of GST except: 

•

•

when  the  GST  incurred  on  a  purchase  of
goods and services is not recoverable from
the  taxation  authority,  in  which  case  the
GST  is  recognised  as  part  of  the  cost  of
acquisition  of  the  asset  or  as  part  of  the
expense item as applicable; and
receivables and payables, which are stated
with the amount of GST included

29 

Notes to the Financial Statements  
For the Year Ended 30 June 2021 

Note 1: Statement of significant accounting policies (continued) 

The  net  amount  of  GST  recoverable  from,  or 
payable  to,  the  taxation  authority  is  included  as 
part of receivables or payables in the statement 
of financial position. 

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

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

(j) Motor Vehicles, plant and equipment 

Motor Vehicles Plant and equipment are stated 
at cost less accumulated depreciation and 
impairment. Costs include expenditure that is 
directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. 
In the event that settlement of all or part of the 
purchase consideration is deferred, costs are 
determined by discounting the amounts payable 
in the future to their present value as at the date 
of acquisition. Subsequent costs are included in 
the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a 
separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is 
probable that the future economic benefits 
associated with the item will flow to the Group 
and the cost of the item can be measured 
reliably. 

All other repairs and maintenance are charged to 
profit or loss during the financial period in which 
they incurred. 

All  tangible  assets  have  limited  useful  lives  and 
are  depreciated  using  the  straight-line  method 
over their existing useful lives. 

Depreciation is calculated as follows: 

Motor Vehicles, plant 
and equipment 

10% - 33% on a 
straight line basis 

(j) Impairment of assets 

The  carrying  amounts  of  the  company’s  assets 
are  reviewed  at  each  statement  of  financial 
position  date  to  determine  whether  there  are 
indicators of impairment.  At each reporting date 
the  company  assesses  whether  there  is  any 
indication  that  individual  assets  are  impaired. 
Where  impairment  indicators  exist,  recoverable 
amount is determined and impairment losses are 
recognised  in  profit  or  loss  where  the  asset's 
carrying  value  exceeds  its  recoverable  amount. 
Recoverable  amount  is  the  higher  of  an  asset's 
fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For 
the  purpose  of  assessing  value  in  use,  the 
estimated future cash flows are discounted to their 
present  value  using  a  pre-tax  discount  rate  that 
reflects  current  market  assessments  of  the  time 
value of money and the risks specific to the asset. 

(k) Trade and other payables 

Trade payables and other payables are carried at 
amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods 
and  services  provided  to  the  Group  prior  to  the 
end  of  the  financial  period  that  are  unpaid  and 
arise when the Group becomes obliged to make 
future  payments  in  respect  of  the  purchase  of 
these goods and services. 

(l)Provisions 

Where  applicable,  provisions  are  recognised 
when the Group has a present obligation (legal or 
constructive)  as  a  result  of  a  past  event,  it  is 
probable that an outflow of resources embodying 
economic  benefits  will  be  required  to  settle  the 
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of 
the amount of the obligation. 

reimbursement 

When  the  Group  expects  some  or  all  of  a 
provision to be reimbursed, for example under an 
insurance  contract, 
is 
the 
recognised as a separate asset but only when the 
reimbursement  is  virtually  certain.  The  expense 
relating  to  any  provision  is  presented  in  the 
loss  and  other 
statement  of  profit  or 
comprehensive 
any 
of 
income 
reimbursement. 

net 

The  assets'  residual  values,  useful  lives  and 
amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted 
if appropriate, at each financial period end. 

If the effect of the time value of money is material, 
provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax 
rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability.

recognised as a borrowing cost. 

directly  to  equity  until  the  disposal  of  the  net 
investment, at which time they are recognised in 
profit or loss. 

(m) Share-based payment transactions

Equity settled transactions 
The fair value of options granted are recognised 
as an expense with a corresponding increase in 
equity. The fair value is measured at grant date 
and recognised over the period during which the 
grantee become unconditionally entitled to the 
options. 

(n) 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. 

(o) Earnings per share

Basic  earnings  per  share  is  calculated  as  net 
profit  attributable  to  members  of  the  parent, 
adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity 
(other  than  dividends)  and  preference  share 
dividends,  divided  by  the  weighted  average 
number of ordinary shares.  

(p) Foreign currency translation

Both the functional and presentation currency of 
Peako Limited and its Australian subsidiaries is 
Australian  dollars.  Each  entity  in  the  Group 
determines  its  own  functional  currency  and 
items  included  in  the  financial  statements  of 
each entity are measured using that functional 
currency. 

Transactions  in  foreign  currencies  are  initially 
recorded in the functional currency by applying 
the  exchange  rates  ruling  at  the  date  of  the 
transaction.  Monetary  assets  and  liabilities 
currencies  are 
foreign 
denominated 
retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the 
balance date. 

in 

All  exchange  differences  in  the  consolidated 
financial report are taken to profit or loss with the 
exception  of  differences  on  foreign  currency 
borrowings  that  provide  a  hedge  against  a  net 
investment in a foreign entity. These are taken 

Tax  charges  and  credits  attributable 
to 
exchange  differences  on  those  borrowings  are 
also recognised in equity. 

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms 
of  historical  cost  in  a  foreign  currency  are 
translated  using  the  exchange  rate  as  at  the 
date  of  the  initial  transaction.  Non-monetary 
items  measured  at  fair  value  in  a  foreign 
currency  are  translated  using  the  exchange 
rates  at  the  date  when  the  fair  value  was 
determined. 

the 

functional  currencies  of 

The 
foreign 
operations  are  not  nominated  in  Australian 
Dollars. As at the balance date the assets and 
liabilities  of  these  subsidiaries  are  translated 
into the presentation currency of Peako Limited 
at  the  rate  of  exchange  ruling  at  the  balance 
date and their income statements are translated 
at the weighted average exchange rate for the 
year.  The  exchange  differences  arising  on  the 
translations  are  taken  directly  to  a  separate 
component of recognised in the foreign currency 
translation reserve in equity. 

On  disposal  of  a  foreign  entity,  the  deferred 
cumulative amount recognised in equity relating 
to that particular foreign operation is recognised 
in profit or loss. 

(q) Trade  and  other  receivables  and  contract
assets

The  company  makes  uses  of  a  simplified 
approach  in  accounting  for  trade  and  other 
receivables  as  well  as  contract  assets  and 
records the loss allowance as lifetime expected 
credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls 
in  contractual  cash  flows,  considering  the 
potential for default at any point during the life of 
the  financial  instrument.  In  calculating,  the 
company uses its historical experience, external 
indicators  and  forward-looking  information  to 
calculate  the  expected  credit  losses  using  a 
provision matrix.

Operating segments are reported in a manner that 
is consistent with the internal reporting provided to 
the  chief  operating  decision  maker,  which  has 
been identified as the Board of Directors of Peako 
Limited. 

(s) Parent entity financial information

The  financial  information  for  the  parent  entity, 
Peako  Limited,  disclosed  in  Note  16  has  been 
prepared  on  the  same  basis  as  the  consolidated 
financial statements, except as set out below.

sale or exploitation, then the relevant capitalised 

that 

amount will be written off through profit or loss and

Recovery of deferred tax assets 

Significant management judgement is required to 
determine the amount of deferred tax assets that 
can be recognised, based upon the likely timing 
and  the  level  of  future  taxable  profits.  Currently 
the  Group  has  not  recognised  any  deferred  tax 
assets in the Statement of Financial Position.

from  the  financial  asset  expire,  or  when  the

The deductible temporary differences and tax losses do not expire under current tax legislation. 

Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because there is presently no 
expectation of future taxable profit against which the Group could utilise such benefits. 

Note 3: Earnings per share

per share is as follows:

instruments are interest rate risk and credit risk. 
The  Board  reviews  and  agrees  policies  for 
managing  each  of  these  risks  and  they  are 
summarised below.

Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the Year Ended 30 June 2021 

Note 13: Financial instruments (continued) 

Market risk 
There has been no change to the Group’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages 
and measures the risk from the previous period. 

Interest rate risk management 
All cash balances attract a floating rate of interest. Excess funds that are not required in the short term 
are placed on deposit for a period of no more than 6 months. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk 
and the effective interest rate by maturity periods is set out below. 

Interest rate sensitivity analysis 
At 30 June 2021, if interest rates had changed on cash and cash equivalent by 100 basis points (1%) 
and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s after tax profit would have been $9,939 (2020: 
$1,457) lower/higher as a result of higher/lower interest income on cash and cash equivalents. 

Credit risk management 
Credit risk relates to the risk that counterparties will default on their contractual obligations resulting in 
financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with credit worthy 
counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of 
mitigating the risk of financial loss from any defaults. 

Foreign currency risk  
The Group is exposed to foreign currency risk on purchases that are denominated in a currency other 
than the respective functional currency. The functional currency of the group is denominated is 
Australian dollars.  

Liquidity risk management 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. 
Liquidity risk is monitored to ensure sufficient monies are available to meet contractual obligations as 
and when they fall due. 

The  following  are  the  contractual  maturities  of  the  financial  liabilities,  including  interest  payments. 
Contractual amounts have not been discounted.

Independent Auditor’s Report 

To the Members of Peako Limited 

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Peako 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, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the 
year then ended, and notes to the consolidated 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: 

a  giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2021 and of its performance for the year 

ended on that date; and 

b  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 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 the key audit matter 

Exploration and Evaluation Assets Valuation (Note 8) 

At 30 June 2021 the carrying value of exploration and 
evaluation assets was $2,154,834.   

In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of 
Mineral Resources, the Group is required to assess at each 
reporting date if there are any triggers for impairment which 
may suggest the carrying value is in excess of the recoverable 
value. 

The process undertaken by management to assess whether 
there are any impairment triggers in each area of interest 
involves an element of management judgement.  

This area is a key audit matter due to the significant 
judgement involved in determining the existence of impairment 
triggers.   

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

•

•

•

•

•

obtaining the management reconciliation of capitalised
exploration and evaluation expenditure and agreeing to
the general ledger;

reviewing management’s area of interest considerations
against AASB 6;

conducting a detailed review of management’s
assessment of trigger events prepared in accordance
with AASB 6 including;

o

o

o

tracing projects to statutory registers, exploration
licenses and third party confirmations to determine
whether a right of tenure existed;

enquiry of management regarding their intentions
to carry out exploration and evaluation activity in
the relevant exploration area, including review of
management’s budgeted expenditure;

understanding whether any data exists to suggest
that the carrying value of these exploration and
evaluation assets are unlikely to be recovered
through development or sale;

evaluating the competence, capabilities and objectivity
of management’s experts in the evaluation of potential
impairment triggers; and
assessing the appropriateness of the related financial
statement disclosures.

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon 

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 our auditor’s report 
thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and 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 Group’s ability 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.  

47

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/ar1_2020.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 in pages 18 to 21 of the Directors’ report for the year ended 30 June

of the Corporations Act 2001. 

Responsibilities 

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance
