REVIEW OF OPERATIONS PILBARA IRON ORE PROJECTS The Company has five distinct project areas, within the Pilbara region, that are all prospective for iron ore mineralisation. The Hamersley Project covers approximately 85km2 and is situated approximately 50km northeast of the Tom Price township in the Pilbara Region of Western Australia. Preliminary work by Cazaly Iron and a review of historical work conducted highlighted the potential for both channel iron deposits (CIDs) and bedded iron deposits (BIDs). Previous drilling within the tenement has confirmed the presence of pisolitic material and the results of a recent close spaced gravity survey have been particularly encouraging. Previous drilling has returned intersection grading up to 61% Fe. The project is very close to road and railway infrastructure providing potential future development advantages. A competitor’s proposed rail corridor crosses the northern portion of the tenement. Drilling is commencing in October 2008. PARKER RANGE IRON ORE PROJECT, Yilgarn Iron Province • • • Upgraded Mineral Resource Estimate for Mount Caudan Increased ownership from 80 to 100% (cid:131) 23.5Mt @ 55.4% Fe Indicated and Inferred Excellent results from 1st phase of metallurgical test work (cid:131) Higher lump (>57%) to fines (<43%) ratio for premium ore (cid:131) Lower than average hardness ores (cid:131) Excellent ore chemistry, DSO product • Drilling Re-commences (cid:131) Regional targets identified (cid:131) Upgrade and Infill Mount Caudan Resource • • Key Executive Appointments Pre-Feasibility Study to commence The Company has completed a resource update for Mount Caudan. The resource contains two primary ore-types; a heamatite - goethite Banded Iron Formation (BIF) and smaller component of secondary Canga and Detrital ore. All ore types have low levels of deleterious elements and are suitable for Direct Shipping Ore (DSO). 5 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities 5.

The Indicated portion of the deposit is situated within the central area of the deposit where drill section spacing is less than 120m with relatively continuous mineralisation along strike and down dip. There is considerable scope to greatly expand the resource through further exploration both along the known strike extent of the enriched BIF and at depth. Currently the deposit has only been drilled down to approximately 100m. The Company is confident infill drilling will confirm the consistency of mineralisation and enable the resource category to be raised to Measured and Indicated status. Metallurgical Test Work Results from the first phase of testwork on ores from the Mount Caudan deposit at Parker Range were highly encouraging with high Lump to Fines ratio and ore characteristics which indicate a potentially highly marketable product. A total of 32 composite samples were tested from four ore types recognised. The combined average result for all of these intervals was as follows: Product Mass Fe % Fe+Mn % SiO2 % Al2O3 % MnO % P% LOI % Mount Caudan Lump to Fines – All Ore Lump Fines % 53.2 46.8 57.4 55.5 Calc Head 100.0 56.6 58.8 56.7 57.9 5.

Recent work has also highlighted indicative options for products from the project. These include a single ‘Fines only’ product or a dual ‘Lump & Fines’ product stream. Indicative ore chemistry is as follows: Table 1.

Fe % (ex LOI) (Calcined Fe) determined by Fe(100-LOI)*100. This work has also shown that the ore has many similarities with Pilbara Channel Iron Deposits (‘CID’s’) with low Phosphorus levels and good upgrades in Fe content when calcined. Ongoing Exploration and Development Recent exploration work has involved field mapping and sampling the mineralised Banded Iron Formation (BIF) over the entire 16km strike length in the Project area. Significant discoveries include a 1.2km extension of the Mount Caudan iron outcrop, known as the “Rainmaker Prospect”. Rockchip results from Rainmaker reach up to 61.0% Fe and appear at surface to be a similar style of mineralisation to that found at Mount Caudan. This area is a priority for drill testing. RHODES RIDGE IRON ORE PROJECT Cazaly has exploration licence applications in respect of the Rhodes Ridge project which contains one of the largest undeveloped iron ore resources in Western Australia. Cazaly has agreed to transfer the tenements to FMG upon grant in return for a royalty from future production. Upon transfer of the tenements, Cazaly will receive an advance on future royalties calculated at $0.05 per tonne of the inferred JORC compliant resource contained in the Rhodes Ridge Project with an agreed minimum payment of $20 million and an agreed maximum of $100 million. The Rhodes Ridge Joint Venture which comprises a subsidiary of Rio Tinto Limited, Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd and Wright Prospecting Pty Ltd, has objected to the grant of the tenements on the basis that the Rhodes Ridge Joint Venture claims to hold rights of occupancy over the land pursuant to the Iron Ore (Rhodes Ridge) Agreement Authorisation Act 1972 (WA). Cazaly contends that the rights of occupancy have not been validly renewed and that the land is open for mining under the Mining Act 1978 (WA). 7 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities 5. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS The Mining Warden has determined that there should be a preliminary hearing in relation to whether or not the Rhodes Ridge Joint Venture has valid and subsisting rights of occupancy. This preliminary hearing was conducted in January 2009 and the decision is awaited. If the Warden determines that the Rhodes Ridge Joint Venture does not hold valid and subsisting rights of occupancy, there is no reason why the Rhodes Ridge Joint Venture should be heard in opposition to the grant of the tenements and Cazaly believes there is no reason why the tenement applications should not be granted. West Kalgoorlie Project The Company controls a substantial gold exploration and development portfolio in the Kunanalling, Ora Banda, Grants Patch, Carbine and Split Rocks regions, collectively known as the West Kalgoorlie project. These tenements cover approximately 533 square kilometres and now contain mineral resources of 612,000 ounces of gold. Activities for the period were focussed on completing the approvals stage for commencement of mining of the Catherwood deposit and advancing exploration over known prospects. Drill programmes were completed on the Backflip prospect at Grants Patch, the Boundary and Carnage prospects in the Ora Banda Project Area and the Sabrina prospect and Picante deposit in the Kunanalling Project Area. The Backflip prospect now represents a priority target for a significant high-grade resources amenable to mechanised underground mining. Financial Position The net assets of the economic entity have decreased by $1,524,297 from 30 June 2008 to $13.93 million in 2009, due largely to the write off of exploration expenditure. The economic entity currently has $3.8 million in cash assets which the Directors believe puts the economic entity in a sound financial position with sufficient capital to effectively explore its current landholdings. Future Developments, Prospects and Business Strategies The economic entity will continue its mineral exploration activity at and around its exploration projects with the object of identifying commercial resources. The economic entity will also continue to identifying new mineral exploration opportunities within Australia and the rest of the world for further potential acquisitions which may offer value enhancing opportunities for shareholders. The following significant changes in the state of affairs of the economic entity occurred during the financial period: On 12 March, the Company completed a placement of 4,242,424 ordinary shares and 2,121,212 options exercisable at 20 cents each on or before 28 February 2011 to a range of institutional investors. The placement raised $700,000 before costs. The funds raised were used for continued exploration and to fund working capital. On 11 May 2009 the Company issued a prospectus for a Non-Renounceable Entitlement Issue of Shares and Options to shareholders of 1 share for every 3 shares held at an issue price of 16.5 cents per share and one free attaching option for every two shares applied for to raise $3,587,093. The offer was closed on 7 June 2009 and the shortfall of the issue was placed in full by 16 July 2009. 8 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities 6. AFTER BALANCE DATE EVENTS On 3 July, the Company issued 1,577,940 Shares and 788,971 Options exercisable at 20 cents on or before 28 February 2011 as part of the shortfall from its Non-Renounceable Entitlement Issue offered pursuant to the Prospectus dated 11 May 2009. On 15 July, the Company issued 860,758 Shares and 430,380 Options exercisable at 20 cents on or before 28 February 2011 as part of the shortfall from its Non-Renounceable Entitlement Issue offered pursuant to the Prospectus dated 11 May 2009. On 28 July, the Company issued 544,538 Shares and 272,269 Options exercisable at 20 cents on or before 28 February 2011 being the balance of the shortfall from its Non-Renounceable Entitlement Issue offered pursuant to the Prospectus dated 11 May 2009. Between the 15 July and 1 September, 8,501 Shares on exercise of 8,501 Options exercisable at 20 cents on or before 28 February 2011. On 7 September 2009, the Company issued 2,377,040 to Gondwana Resources Limited as part consideration for the acquisition of the remaining interest in the Parker Range Iron project. On 8 September 2009, the Company issued 680,450 to William Robert Richmond as part consideration for the acquisition of the remaining interest in the Parker Range Iron project to take the Company’s ownership to 100%. Apart from the above, no other matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the financial period which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Company, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Company in future financial years. 7. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS The economic entity will continue its mineral exploration activity at and around its exploration projects with the object of identifying commercial resources. 8. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES The economic entity is aware of its environmental obligations with regards to its exploration activities and ensures that it complies with all regulations when carrying out any exploration work. The directors have considered the recently enacted National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (the NGER Act) which introduces a single national reporting framework for the reporting and dissemination of information about the greenhouse gas emissions, greenhouse gas projects, and energy use and production of corporations. At the current stage of development, the directors have determined that the NGER Act will have no effect on the company for the current, nor subsequent financial year. The directors will reassess this position as and when the need arises. 9 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities 9.

REMUNERATION REPORT Directorships of other listed companies Directorships of other listed companies held by directors in the three years immediately before the end of the financial year are as follows: Name Nathan McMahon Period of directorship Since May 2008 Since July 2008 Since May 2005 Company Hodges Resources Limited Catalyst Metals Limited Universal Coal PLC Bannerman Resources Limited From June 2008 to 17 December 2008 Northern Mining Limited Graynic Metals Limited Jackson Gold Limited Graynic Metals Limited Cortona Resources Limited Bannerman Resources Elixir Petroleum Limited Scimitar Resources Limited Hamill Resources Limited Venture Minerals Limited Gryphon Minerals Limited From April 2005 to December 2006 Since February 2005 to December 2006 Since March 2002 Since February 2005 Since January 2006 Since January 2008 From March 2004 to November 2008 Since November 2002 From November 2000 to September 2004 From May 2006 to July 2009 Since January 2004 Clive Jones Kent Hunter This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of Cazaly Resources Limited. Remuneration Policy The remuneration policy of Cazaly Resources Limited has been designed to align director objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an annual basis in line with market rates. The board of Cazaly Resources Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best directors to run and manage the company, as well as create goal congruence between directors and shareholders. The board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members is as follows: The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior staff members, was developed by the managing director and approved by the board after seeking professional advice from independent external consultants. In determining competitive remuneration rates, the Board seeks independent advice on local and international trends among comparative companies and industry generally. It examines terms and conditions for employee incentive schemes, benefit plans and share plans. Independent advice is obtained to confirm that executive remuneration is in line with market practice and is reasonable in the context of Australian executive reward practices. All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation and fringe benefits. The economic entity is an exploration entity, and therefore speculative in terms of performance. Consistent with attracting and retaining talented executives, directors and senior executives are paid market rates associated with individuals in similar positions, within the same industry. The Board however acquired and were issued shares as part of the terms of the Initial Public Offer. Board members have retained these securities which assist in aligning their objectives with overall shareholder value. Options have been issued to Board members to provide a mechanism to participate in the future development of the Company and an incentive for their future involvement with and commitment to the Company. Options and performance incentives will be issued in the event that the entity moves from an exploration entity to a producing entity, and key performance indicators such as profits and growth can be used as measurements for assessing Board performance. 11 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities 10. REMUNERATION REPORT (Cont’d) The executive directors and executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which is currently 9% and do not receive any other retirement benefits. All remuneration paid to directors is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Shares given to directors and executives are valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the director or executive. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology. The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The managing director in consultation with independent advisors determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Company. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company. Company Performance, Shareholder Wealth and Directors’ and Executives’ Remuneration The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders and directors and executives. This has been achieved by the issue of shares to the majority of the directors and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interest. Details of Remuneration for Year Ended 30 June 2009 The remuneration for each key management person and company executive of the company during the year was as follows: Short-term Benefits Post- employment Benefits Other Long-term Benefits Share based Payment Total Performance Related Cash, salary Cash Non- Other Super- Other Equity Options & profit cash annuation commissions share benefit $ Nathan McMahon – Managing Director (ii) 2009 2008 180,000 180,000 - - Clive Jones – Managing Director (ii) 2009 2008 180,000 180,000 - - Kent Hunter – Non Executive Director (iv) 2009 2008 26,312 25,000 - - Lisa Wynne – Company Secretary (v) 2009 2008 - - Total Remuneration 2009 2008 386,312 385,000 - - - - $ - - - - - - - - - - $ - - - - 5,976 33,497 36,911 22,036 42,887 55,533 $ - - - - - - 937 2,250 937 2,250 $ - - - - - - - - - - (i) $ $ % - 180,000 210,000 390,000 - 180,000 210,000 390,000 - 33,225 105,000 165,747 - 9,998 36,911 32,034 - 430,136 534,998 977,781 0% 54% 0% 54% 0% 63% 0% 31% 0% 55% $ - - - - - - - - - - i) The fair value of the Options is calculated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes model. ii) An aggregate amount of $180,000 (2008:$ 180,000) was paid, or was due and payable to Kingsreef Pty Ltd, a company controlled by Mr Nathan McMahon, for the provision of corporate and tenement management services to the Company. iii) An aggregate amount of $180,000 (2008:$ 180,000) was paid, or was due and payable to Widerange Corporation Pty Ltd, a company controlled by Mr Clive Jones, for the provision of geological services to the Company. iv) An aggregate amount of $5,976 (2008: $33,497) was paid, or was due and payable to Mining Corporate Advisory Services Pty Ltd, a company controlled by Mr Kent Hunter, for the provision of corporate advisory services to the Company. v) An aggregate amount of $36,911 (2008: $22,036) was paid, or was due and payable to Sila Consulting Pty Ltd, a company of which Ms Wynne is a Director, for the provision of company secretarial services to the Company. 12 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities 10.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial report covers the economic entity of Cazaly Resources Limited and controlled entities, and Cazaly Resources Limited as an individual parent entity. Cazaly Resources Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Basis of Preparation The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board1 and the Corporations Act 2001. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. (a) Principles of Consolidation A controlled entity is any entity over which Cazaly Resources Limited has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing the power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are considered. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 21 to the financial statements. As at reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the consolidated financial statements as well as their results for the year then ended. Where controlled entities have entered (left) the consolidated group during the year, their operating results have been included (excluded) from the date control was obtained (ceased). All inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group, including any unrealised profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity. Minority interests, being that portion of the profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests held by persons outside the group, are shown separately within the Equity section of the consolidated Balance Sheet and in the consolidated Income Statement. (b) Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. 20 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) Depreciation Depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment, including freehold buildings but excluding land. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the net cost or other revalued amount of each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: Class of Fixed Asset Plant and equipment Office furniture and equipment Motor vehicle Leasehold improvements Depreciation Rate 40.0% 18.0% 22.5% Term of Lease The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. (c) Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure Costs incurred during exploration and evaluation related to an area of interest are accumulated. Costs carried forward provided such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development, or by sale, or where exploration and evaluation activities have not at balance date reached a stage to allow a reasonable assessment regarding the existence of economically recoverable reserves. In these instances the entity must have rights of tenure to the area of interest and must be continuing to undertake exploration operations in the area. These assets are considered for impairment on an annual basis, depending on the existence of impairment indicators including: • • • • the period for which the Economic Entity has the right to explore in the specific area has expired during the period or will expire in the near future, and is not expected to be renewed; substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor planned; exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral resources and the Economic Entity has decided to discontinue such activities in the specific area; and sufficient key data exists to indicate that, although a development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale. Costs carried forward in respect of an area of interest that is abandoned are written off in the year in which the decision to abandon is made. 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) 21 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 (d) Leases Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership, are transferred to entities in the economic entity are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised, recording an asset and a liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. Leased assets are depreciated on a diminishing value basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the economic entity will obtain ownership of the asset or over the term of the lease. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period. Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. (e) Financial Instruments Recognition and Initial Measurement Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is adopted for financial assets that are delivered within timeframes established by marketplace convention. Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below. Derecognition Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity is no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expire. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. Classification and Subsequent Measurement (i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets classified as held for trading are included in the category ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on investments held for trading are recognised in profit or loss. 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (e) Financial Instruments (Cont’d) 22 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 (ii) Held-to-maturity investments Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-to-maturity when the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Investments intended to be held for an undefined period are not included in this classification. Investments that are intended to be held-to-maturity, such as bonds, are subsequently measured at amortised cost. This cost is computed as the amount initially recognised minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between the initially recognised amount and the maturity amount. This calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums and discounts. For investments carried at amortised cost, gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process. (iii) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process. (iv) Available-for-sale investments Available-for-sale investments are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as any of the three preceding categories. After initial recognition available-for sale investments are measured at fair value with gains or losses being recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is derecognised or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is recognised in profit or loss. The fair value of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market bid prices at the close of business on the balance sheet date. For investments with no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include using recent arm’s length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument that is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models. (f) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short- term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet. (g) Trade and Other Receivables Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 day terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An allowance for doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written off when identified. 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (h) Revenue and Other Income 23 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers. Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. Revenue from the rendering of a service is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). (i) Impairment of Assets At each reporting date, the Economic Entity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from the other assets, the Economic Entity estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In 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 for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generated unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the Profit and Loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. . A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in the Profit and Loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase (j) 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 Tax Office (“ATO”). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST. 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) 24 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the balance sheet. Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows. (k) Taxation The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income). 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 reporting date. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well 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 reporting date. 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. 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) Tax Consolidation 25 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax consolidation legislation. Each entity in the group recognises its own current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such taxes are measured using the ‘stand-alone taxpayer’ approach to allocation. Current tax liabilities (assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits in the subsidiaries are immediately transferred to the head entity. The group notified the Australian Tax Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group to apply from 1 July 2004. (l) Foreign Currency All foreign currency transactions during the financial year are brought to account using the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items at reporting date are translated at the exchange rate existing at that date. (m) Trade and Other Payables Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised costs and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the company prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the company becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. (n) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Economic Entity has a present obligation, the future sacrifice of economic benefits is probable, and the amount of the provision can be reliably measured. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. (o) Share Based Payments Equity-settled share based payments granted, are measured at fair value at the date of grant. Fair value is measured by use of a binomial model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Economic Entity’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest. For cash-settled share-based payments, a liability equal to the portion of the goods or services received is recognised at the current fair value determined at each reporting date. 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (p) Issued Capital 26 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received. (q) Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is calculated as net earnings attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for an bonus element. Diluted EPS is calculated as net earnings attributable to members, adjusted for: costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends; the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that would have been recognised as expenses; and other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element. (r) Employee Benefits Provision is made for the Economic Entity’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. (s) Joint Venture Entities A joint venture entity is an entity in which Cazaly holds a long-term interest and which is jointly controlled by Cazaly and one or more other venturers. Decisions regarding the financial and operating policies essential to the activities, economic performance and financial position of that venture require the consent of each of the venturers that together jointly control the entity. Cazaly has certain contractual arrangements with other participants to engage in joint activities where all significant matters of operating and financial policy are determined by the participants such that the operation itself has no significant independence to pursue its own commercial strategy. These contractual arrangements do not create a joint venture entity due to the fact that the policies are those of the participants, not a separate entity carrying on a trade or a business of its own. The financial statements of Cazaly include its share of the assets, liabilities and cash flows in such joint venture operations, measured in accordance with the terms of each arrangement, which is usually pro-rata to Cazaly’s interest in the joint venture operations. (t) Royalty Assets Royalty assets are valued in the accounts at cost of acquisition and are amortised over the period in which their benefits are expected to be realised. The balances are reviewed annually and any balance representing future benefits for which the realisation is considered to be no longer probable are written off 1.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (v) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments 28 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected. The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the group. Key Judgements – Deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure Exploration and evaluation costs are carried forward where right of tenure of the area of interest is current. These costs are carried forward in respect of an area that has not at balance sheet date reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves, refer to the accounting policy stated in note 1(c). Key Judgements Share based payment transactions The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the assumptions detailed in note 26. Key Judgment – Environmental Issues Balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. At the current stage of the company’s development and its current environmental impact the directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate. Key Estimate – Taxation Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto, related to taxation, are based on the best estimates of directors. These estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the company as they pertain to current income taxation legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current income tax position represents that directors’ best estimate, pending an assessment by the Australian Taxation Office. The financial report was authorised for issue on 22 September 2009 by the board of directors. 29 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 2.

ISSUED CAPITAL (a) Capital risk management The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Company does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Company’s capital risk management is the current working capital position against the requirements of the Company to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. The Company’s strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. The working capital position of the Company and the parent entity at 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2008 are as follows: Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Trade and other payables Working capital position 15.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, available for sale investments, cash and short-term deposits. The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the oversight and management of the Company’s exposure to a variety of financial risks (including fair value interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk). The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company. Interest rate risks The Company’s exposure to market interest rates relates to cash deposits held at variable rates. The Board constantly analyses its interest rate exposure. Within this analysis consideration is given to potential renewals of existing positions. Credit risk The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date is the carrying amount (net of provision of doubtful debts) of those assets as disclosed in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded are spread amongst approved counterparties. Liquidity risk The responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash or credit facilities to meet the operating requirements of the business and investing excess funds in highly liquid short term investments. Market risk Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. Sensitivity Analysis Interest Rate Risk and Price Risk The group has performed sensitivity analysis relating to its exposure to interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and price risk at balance date. This sensitivity analysis demonstrates the effect on the current year results and equity which could result from a change in these risks. 41 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont’d) Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis At 30 June 2009, the effect on profit as a result of changes in the interest rate, with all other variables remaining constant would be as follows: Change in profit/loss — — Increase in interest rate by 1.0% Decrease in interest rate by 1.0% 2009 $ 38,163 (38,163) 2008 $ 20,722 (20,722) Price Sensitivity Analysis Management believes the estimated fair values resulting from the valuation of listed investments and recorded in the balance sheet and the related changes in fair values recorded in the income statement are reasonable and the most appropriate at balance sheet date.

COMMITMENTS On 10 November 2003 the economic entity entered into a lease agreement with Giorgio Longo and Clotilda Aurora Longo for the premises known as entire First Floor, 22 Oxford Close, Leederville, Western Australia. The initial term, is for two (2) years expiring on 30 September 2006 in consideration for a rental fee of $30,000 per annum. The economic entity has negotiated an extension of the lease agreement with Giorgio Longo until 30 September 2010 for a rental fee of $60,000 per annum In order to maintain rights of tenure to mining tenements, the economic entity would have the following discretionary exploration expenditure requirements up until expiry of leases. These obligations, which are subject to renegotiation upon expiry of the leases, are not provided for in the financial statements and are payable: Not longer than one year Longer than one year, but not longer than five years Longer than five years Economic Entity 2008 2009 $ 2009 Patent Entity 2008 $ 5,335,168 597,676 - 5,932,844 2,741,354 3,038,275 171,528 988,718 - - 3,730,072 3,209,803 823,327 584,974 - 1,408,301 At the moment the economic entity has commitments in excess of cash, however the Board believes it will be able to raise the additional funds to satisfy the commitments for the future. If the economic entity decides to relinquish certain leases and/or does not meet these obligations, assets recognised in the balance sheet may require review to determine the appropriateness of carrying values. The sale, transfer or farm-out of exploration rights to third parties will reduce or extinguish these obligations. 21.

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICY The AASB has issued new, revised and amended standards and interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods. The Group has decided against early adoption of these standards. A discussion of those future requirements and their impact on the Group follows: • AASB 3: Business Combinations, AASB 127: Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, AASB 2008- 3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 3 and AASB 127 [AASBs 1,2,4,5,7,101,107, 112, 114, 116, 121, 128, 131, 132, 133, 134, 136, 137, 138 & 139 and Interpretations 9 & 107] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 July 2009) and AASB 2008-7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Cost of an Investment in a Subsidiary, Jointly Controlled Entity or Associate [AASB 1, AASB 118, AASB 121, AASB 127 & AASB 136] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). These standards are applicable prospectively and so will only affect relevant transactions and consolidations occurring from the date of application. In this regard, its impact on the Group will be unable to be determined. The following changes to accounting requirements are included: — acquisition costs incurred in a business combination will no longer be recognised in goodwill but will be expensed unless the cost relates to issuing debt or equity securities; — contingent consideration will be measured at fair value at the acquisition date and may only be provisionally accounted for during a period of 12 months after acquisition; — a gain or loss of control will require the previous ownership interests to be remeasured to their fair value; — there shall be no gain or loss from transactions affecting a parent’s ownership interest of a subsidiary with all transactions required to be accounted for through equity (this will not represent a change to the Group’s policy); — dividends declared out of pre-acquisition profits will not be deducted from the cost of an investment but will be recognised as income; — impairment of investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates shall be considered when a dividend is paid by the respective investee; and — where there is, in substance, no change to Group interests, parent entities inserted above existing groups shall measure the cost of its investments at the carrying amount of its share of the equity items shown in the balance sheet of the original parent at the date of reorganisation. The Group will need to determine whether to maintain its present accounting policy of calculating goodwill acquired based on the parent entity’s share of net assets acquired or change its policy so goodwill recognised also reflects that of the non-controlling interest. • AASB 8: Operating Segments and AASB 2007-3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 8 [AASB 5, AASB 6, AASB 102, AASB 107, AASB 119, AASB 127, AASB 134, AASB 136, AASB 1023 & AASB 1038] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). AASB 8 replaces AASB 114 and requires identification of operating segments on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Group’s Board for the purposes of decision making. While the impact of this standard cannot be assessed at this stage, there is the potential for more segments to be identified. Given the lower economic levels at which segments may be defined, and the fact that cash generating units cannot be bigger than operating segments, impairment calculations may be affected. Management does not presently believe impairment will result however. • AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements, AASB 2007-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 101, and AASB 2007-10: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 101 (all applicable to annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). The revised AASB 101 and amendments supersede the previous AASB 101 and redefines the composition of financial statements including the inclusion of a statement of comprehensive income. There will be no measurement or recognition impact on the Group. If an entity has made a prior period adjustment or reclassification, a third balance sheet as at the beginning of the comparative period will be required. 49 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009 • AASB 123: Borrowing Costs and AASB 2007-6: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 123 [AASB 1, AASB 101, AASB 107, AASB 111, AASB 116 & AASB 138 and Interpretations 1 & 12] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). The revised AASB 123 has removed the option to expense all borrowing costs and will therefore require the capitalisation of all borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Management has determined that there will be no effect on the Group as a policy of capitalising qualifying borrowing costs has been maintained by the Group. • AASB 2008-1: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standard – Share-based Payments: Vesting Conditions and Cancellations [AASB 2] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2009). This amendment to AASB 2 clarifies that vesting conditions consist of service and performance conditions only. Other elements of a share-based payment transaction should therefore be considered for the purposes of determining fair value. Cancellations are also required to be treated in the same manner whether cancelled by the entity or by another party. • AASB 2008-5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project (July 2008) (AASB 2008-5) and AASB 2008-6: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project (July 2008) (AASB 2008-6) detail numerous non- urgent but necessary changes to accounting standards arising from the IASB’s annual improvements project. No changes are expected to materially affect the Group. • AASB 2008-13: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB Interpretation 17 – Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners [AASB 5 & AASB 110] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 July 2009). This amendment requires that non-current assets held for distribution to owners to be measured at the lower of carrying value and fair value less costs to distribute. • AASB Interpretation 17: Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 July 2009). This guidance applies prospectively only and clarifies that non-cash dividends payable should be measured at the fair value of the net assets to be distributed where the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the assets is recognised in profit or loss. 50 Independent Auditor’s Report To the Members of Cazaly Resources Limited We have audited the accompanying financial report of Cazaly Resources Limited (the company) and Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities (the consolidated entity), which comprises the balance sheet as at 30 June 2009, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity and cash flow statement for the year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.

This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standards AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements, that compliance with the Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with IFRS. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Independence In conducting our audit, we followed applicable independence requirements of Australian professional ethical pronouncements and the Corporations Act 2001.

In determining what those high standards should involve the Company has turned to the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations, 2nd Edition. The Company is pleased to advise that the Company’s practices are largely consistent with those ASX guidelines. As consistency with the guidelines has been a gradual process, where the Company did not have certain policies or committees recommended by the ASX Corporate Governance Council (the Council) in place during the reporting period, we have identified such policies or committees. The Board of Directors of Resources Limited is responsible for corporate governance of the Company. The Board guides and monitors the business and affairs of Cazaly Resources Limited on behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable. Where the Company’s corporate governance practices do not correlate with the practices recommended by the Council, the Company is working towards compliance however it does not consider that all the practices are appropriate for the Company due to the size and scale of Company operations. For further information on corporate governance policies adopted by Cazaly Resources Limited, refer to our website: www.cazalyresources.com.au. Board Objectives The Board will develop strategies for the Company, review strategic objectives, and monitor the performance against those objectives. The overall goals of the corporate governance process are to: • • • drive shareholders value; assure a prudential and ethical base to the Company’s conduct and activities; and ensure compliance with the Company’s legal and regulatory obligations. Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight The board has adopted a Charter that sets out the roles and responsibilities of the board. This may be viewed at the Corporate Governance page of the Company’s website. The Charter includes, amongst other things that the Board will: • • • • • • • developing initiatives for profit and assets growth; reviewing the corporate, commercial and financial performance of the Company on a regular basis; acting on behalf of, and being accountable to, the Shareholders; identifying business risks and implementing actions to manage those risks; and developing and effecting management and corporate systems to assure quality reviewing the Company’s systems of risk management and internal compliance and control, codes of conduct and legal compliance ensuring that policies and procedures are in place consistent with the Company’s objectives, and ensuring the Company and its officers act legally, ethically and responsibly in all matters The Company is committed to the circulation of relevant materials to Directors in a timely manner to facilitate Directors’ participation in Board discussions on a fully informed basis. Senior Executives evaluation The Board consists of three (3) members, two of which hold executive roles as Joint Managing Directors. The board therefore undertakes ongoing self-assessment and review of performance of the Board, and individual directors annually. The Chairman of the Board is responsible for determining the process for evaluating Board performance. To facilitate optimal performance, the Executives participate in professional development programs. 57 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Principle 2: Structure the board to add value Composition The board currently consists of three directors, two executives and one non-executive. Details of their experience, qualifications and committee memberships are set in the directors report. All directors were in office at the date of this report: Clive Jones – Managing Director Executive Director since August 2003 Term in office – 73 months Nathan McMahon – Managing Director Executive Director since June 2003 Term in office - 75 months Kent Hunter Independent Non-executive director since August 2003 Term in office – 73 months Appointment Election of Board members is substantially the province of the Shareholders in general meeting. However, the Company commits to the following principles: • • the Board to comprise of Directors with a blend of skills, experience and attributes appropriate for the Company and its business; the principal criterion for the appointment of new Directors being their ability to add value to the Company and its business. Board Independence The Board has accepted the ASX Corporate Governance Councils definition of an Independent Director contained in their report titled “Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations, 2nd Edition.”. Mr Hunter is a Non-Executive Director and is considered to be Independent. In reaching that determination, the Board has taken into account: • The specific disclosures made in accordance with the Corporations Act, but each such director in respect of any material contract or relationship • That no such director is, or is associated directly with, a substantial shareholder of the company • Where applicable, the related party dealings referable to each such Director, noting that those dealings are not material under accounting standards. Full details of related party dealings are set out in the notes to the financial statements • That no such non-executive Director has within the last three years been employed in an executive capacity by the company • That no such non-executive Director is , or is associate with a supplier or customer of the company which is material under accounting standards • That such non-executive Director’s are free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonable be perceived to, materially interfere with the director’s ability to act in the best interests of the Company. Under the accounting standards, a matter is considered to be material if it is equal to or greater than 10% of the appropriate base amount. 58 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Mr McMahon is an Executive Director of the Company and does not meet the Company’s criteria for independence. Mr McMahon’s experience and knowledge of the Company make his contribution to the Board such that it is appropriate for him to remain on the Board. Mr Jones is an Executive Director of the Company and does not meet the Company’s criteria for independence. Mr Jones experience and knowledge of the Company make his contribution to the Board such that it is appropriate for him to remain on the Board. Given the size of the company and the industry in which is operates, the current Board structure is considered to best serve the Company in meeting its objectives, given its small capitalisation, limited resources and existing operations. The composition of the Board is reviewed on an annual basis to ensure that the Board has the appropriate mix of expertise and experience. Independent professional advice There are procedures in place, as agreed by the board, to enable directors to seek independent professional advice on issues arising in the course of their duties at the company’s expense. Remuneration and Nomination Committee As the entire board consist of three (3) members, the Company does not have a Remuneration and Nomination Committee. The Directors believe given the size and scope of the operations of the Company, it is sufficient for the full board to assume those responsibilities that are ordinarily assigned to a remuneration and nomination committee. Where appropriate, independent consultants are engaged to identify possible new candidates for the Board. Nomination Arrangements Where a vacancy is considered to exist, the Board will select an appropriate candidate through consultation with external parties and consideration of the needs of shareholders and the Company. Such appointments will be referred to shareholders for re-election at the next annual general meeting. All Directors, except the Managing Director, are subject to re-election by shareholders at least every three years. When a vacancy exists, through whatever cause, or where it is considered that the Board would benefit from the services of a new director with particular skills, the Board will determine the selection criteria for the position based on the skills deemed necessary for the Board to best carry out its responsibilities. The Board will then appoint the most suitable candidate (assuming one is available) who must stand for election at the next annual general meeting. Performance During the reporting year the Company did not conduct a formal evaluation of Directors and Executives. The Board undertakes an annual review of its own performance with external advice as appropriate. To facilitate optimal performance, the Board participates in professional development programs. Principle 3: Promote ethical and responsible decision making Code of Conduct The Directors, officers and employees of the Company are required to conduct themselves in accordance with the Company’s Code of Conduct which can be viewed on the Governance Page of the Company’s website. Share Trading Policy The Company also has policies concerning trading in the Company’s securities by directors, officers and employees. This policy can be viewed on the Governance Page of the Company’s website. Principle 4: Safeguard integrity of financial reporting Audit Committee Given the size and scope of the operations of the Company, the full board has assumed those responsibilities that are ordinarily assigned to a audit committee. 59 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities CORPORATE GOVERNANCE It is the Board’s responsibility to ensure that an effective internal control framework exists within the Company. This includes both internal controls to deal with both the effectiveness and efficiency of significant business processes, the safeguarding of assets, the maintenance of proper accounting records, and the reliability of financial and non information. Appointment of auditor The shareholders in a general meeting are responsible for the appointment of the external auditors of the Company, and the Board from time to time will review the scope, performance and fees of those external auditors. Principle 5: Make timely and balanced disclosure The Board has designated the Managing Directors as the persons responsible for overseeing and coordinating disclosure of information to the ASX as well as communicating with the ASX. The Company has a Continuous Disclosure Policy available for viewing on the Governance page of the Company’s website. Principle 6: Respect the rights of shareholders The Board of Cazaly is committed to open and effective communication, ensuring all shareholders is informed of all significant development concerning the Company. The Company has in place an effective Shareholder Communications Policy. This policy can be viewed on the Governance page of the Company’s website. Principle 7: Recognise and manage risk Identification and Management of Risk The Board’s Charter clearly establishes that it is responsible for ensuring there is a good sound system for overseeing and managing risk. Due to the size and scale of operations, risk management issues are considered by the Board as a whole. The Board’s collective experience will enable accurate identification of the principal risks which may affect the Company’s business. Management of these risks will be discussed by the Board at periodic (at least annual) strategic planning meetings. In addition, key operational risks and their management, will be recurring items for deliberation at Board meetings. A copy of the Company’s risk management policy can be viewed on the Governance page of the Company’s website. The Board is responsible for ensuring that risks, and also opportunities, are identified on a timely basis and that the group’s objectives and activities are aligned with those risks and opportunities. The Board has a number of mechanisms in place to ensure that management’s objectives and activities are aligned with the risks identified by the Board. These include: • Board receives regular updates on key risks associated with the development of the Company’s Parker Range Project and has commissioned a Pre-Feasibility on the Parker Range Project, which will also report on material risk for the project; • Implementation of Board-approved annual operating budgets and plans, then monitoring the actual progress against those; and The Board will seek to develop a more extensive Risk Management Policy over the coming year, which can then be used as a guide to be used throughout the company in identifying and communicating business risks. The Board has received assurance from the Financial Controller and Managing Director that the declarations made in accordance with section 295A of the Corporation Act 2001 are: 1. founded on a sound system of risk management and internal compliance and control which implements the policies adopted by the board 2. the Company’s risk management and internal compliance and control system is operating efficiently and effectively in all material respects. 60 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Principle 8: Remunerate fairly and responsibly Remuneration Arrangements As the entire board consist of three (3) members, the Company does not have a Remuneration and Nomination Committee. The Directors believe given the size and scope of the operations of the Company, it is sufficient for the full board to assume those responsibilities that are ordinarily assigned to a remuneration and nomination committee. Where appropriate, independent consultants are engaged to appropriate levels of remuneration . It is the company’s objective to provide maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality board by remunerating directors fairly and appropriately with reference to relevant employment market conditions. To assist in achieving the objective the Board links the nature and amount of executive directors’ emoluments to the company’s financial and operational performance. The expected outcomes of this remuneration structure are: • • Retention and motivation of Directors Performance rewards to allow Directors to share the rewards of the success of Cazaly Resources Limited The remuneration of an executive director will be decided by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee. In determining competitive remuneration rates the Committee reviews local and international trends among comparative companies and the industry generally. It also examines terms and conditions for the employee share option plan. • Where applicable, the Company is committed to remunerating its senior executives in a manner that is market- competitive and consistent with best practice as well as supporting the interests of shareholders. Consequently, under the Senior Executive Remuneration Policy the remuneration of senior executive may be comprised of the following: fixed salary that is determined from a review of the market and reflects core performance requirements and expectations; a performance bonus designed to reward actual achievement by the individual of performance objectives and for materially improved Company performance; participation in any share/option scheme with thresholds approved by shareholders; statutory superannuation. • • • By remunerating senior executives through performance and long-term incentive plans in addition to their fixed remuneration the Company aims to align the interests of senior executives with those of shareholders and increase Company performance. During the year there were no Non-Director Executives. The value of shares and options were they to be granted to senior executives would be calculated using the Black and Scholes method. The objective behind using this remuneration structure is to drive improved Company performance and thereby increase shareholder value as well as aligning the interests of executives and shareholders. The Board may use its discretion with respect to the payment of bonuses, stock options and other incentive payments. The maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is the subject of shareholder resolution in accordance with the Company’s Constitution, and the Corporations Act 2001 as applicable. The appointment of non-executive Director remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value of the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director. Usually Non-Executive Directors do not receive performance based bonuses and but may participate in equity schemes of the Company. The Board may award additional remuneration to non-executive Directors called upon to perform extra services or make special exertions on behalf of the Company. There is no scheme to provide retirement benefits, other than statutory superannuation, to non-executive directors. All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology. Full details regarding the remuneration of Directors, is included in the Directors’ Report. 61 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Explanation of departure from the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 2nd Edition During the financial year Cazaly strived to comply with the 8 Essential Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations where appropriate for the size and nature of the Company and Industry in which it operates. A summary of departure form the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations is outlined below: Best Practice Recommendation Notification of Departure Explanation of Departure 2.1-2.3 - Structure of the Board The majority of the board are not independent directors, the Chair is does not meet the criteria for Independence and the role of the Chair and CEO are exercised by the same individual 2.4 The board should establish a nomination committee The Company has not established a formal nomination committee 4.1-4.3 Safeguard integrity in financial reporting The Company has not established a formal audit committee 7.2 Risk Management System. The board has not requested that management design and implement a risk management and internal control system and report to the board on whether those risks are being managed effectively. The Board continues to strive to meet the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations or other such principles and guidance as the Board may consider appropriate form time to time, however the Board also recognises that complying the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 is impractical given the size of the company and the industry in which it operates. The Board instead aims to assess the independence of the Company’s non-executive Director on an ongoing basis requiring full disclosure where conflicts of interest arise. The Board (subject to members’ voting rights in general meeting) is responsible for selection of new board members and succession planning, and has regard to a candidate’s experience and competence in areas such as exploration, financial and administration. The wide commercial and technical experience of Messrs McMahon and Jones assists Cazaly in meeting its corporate objectives and plans. The Board continues to strive to meet the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations or other such principles and guidance as the Board may consider appropriate form time to time, however the Board also recognises that complying the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendation 2.4.is impractical given the size of the company and the industry in which it operates. The board consists of three (3) members and therefore the Directors believe, it is sufficient for the full board to assume those responsibilities that are ordinarily assigned to a remuneration and nomination committee The Board continues to strive to meet the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations or other such principles and guidance as the Board may consider appropriate form time to time, however the Board also recognises that complying the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 4.1-4.3 is impractical given the size of the company and the industry in which it operates. The board consists of three (3) members and therefore the Directors believe, it is sufficient for the full board to assume those responsibilities that are ordinarily assigned to an audit committee. The Board continues to strive to meet the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations or other such principles and guidance as the Board may consider appropriate form time to time, however the Board also recognises that complying the ASX Corporate Governance Council Recommendation 7.2.is impractical given the size of the company and the industry in which it operates. The board consists of three (3) members, two of which are joint executive managing directors and therefore the Directors believe, it is sufficient for the full board to assume the responsibilities of ensuring that risks and opportunities are identified on a timely basis and that the Company’s objectives and activities are aligned with those risks and opportunities. 62 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities 8.1 The board should establish a remuneration committee The Company has not established a formal remuneration committee Non-executive directors received options 8.2 Clearly distinguish the structure of non- executive directors’ remuneration from that of executives The Board continues to strive to meet the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations or other such principles and guidance as the Board may consider appropriate form time to time, however the Board also recognises that complying the ASX Corporate Governance Council Recommendation 8.1is impractical given the size of the company and the industry in which it operates. The board consists of three (3) members and therefore the Directors believe, it is sufficient for the full board to assume those responsibilities that are ordinarily assigned to a remuneration and nomination committee The Board continues to strive to meet the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations or other such principles and guidance as the Board may consider appropriate from time to time, however during previous reporting periods, the Company has issued options to Non-Executive Directors. Non-Executive Directors typically do not participate in equity or option schemes, however the Board has determined that, consistent with the size of the Company and the activities focused nature of business and shareholding structure, the Company will seek shareholder approval for the issue of share options to Non-Executive Directors from time to time. The Board believes the options issued to Non-Executive Directors provide them with a mechanism to participate in the future development of the Company and act as an incentive for their future involvement with and commitment to the Company. The Directors believe that the success of the Company in the future will depend in large part upon the skills of the people engaged to manage the Company's operations. Accordingly, it is important that the Company is able to attract and retain people of the highest calibre. The Directors consider that the most appropriate means of achieving this is to provide Directors with an opportunity to participate in the Company's future growth and an incentive to contribute to that growth and thus to enhance overall shareholder wealth creation. 63 Annual Financial Report 2009 Cazaly Resources Limited and Controlled Entities SCHEDULE OF MINERAL TENEMENTS AS AT 18 SEPTEMBER 2009 1 ELA 2 EL's 2 ELA's 1 ELA 1 ELA 1 ELA 1 EL 1 EL 1 ELA 1 ELA 1 ELA 1 ELA 2 ELA's 13 PL's 6 PL's 1 EL 1 EL PROJECTS ALICE HILL AU-7 MILE HILL TENEMENTS PROJECTS TENEMENTS 1 ELA 1 ELA FE-MININER FE-MT CECIL RHODES AU-ALBION DOWNS 4 EL's, 1 PL FE-MT EVELYN AU-BULONG AU-BURBANKS AU-CARASUE AU-CARDINIA BORE AU-CAROSUE AU-CHADWIN AU-COOLGARDIE AU-GOONGARRIE 1 ELA 4 PL's 2 PLA's 9 PL's 2 ELA's 3 PLA's 1 ELA 10 PL's AU-HIGGINSVILLE 1 EL, 1 ELA AU-LAKE LEFROY AU-MT CLIFFORD AU-MT WELD AU-RUBY WELL BIG BEN BLAIR 1 EL 2 PL's 1 EL 2 ELA's 1 ELA FE-MT SAMSON FE-MT WILKINS FE-MT.
