DIRECTORS AND COMPANY SECRETARY Directors The following directors have been in office since the start of the financial year to the date of this report unless otherwise stated: Nathan McMahon Clive Jones Terry Gardiner Company Secretary Mike Robbins 2. PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES The principal activity of the Group during the financial year was mineral exploration and evaluation activities as well as seeking out further exploration, acquisition and joint venture opportunities. There were no significant changes in the nature of the Group’s principal activities during the financial period. 3. OPERATING RESULTS & FINANCIAL POSITION The Group’s profit after tax for the year was $716,577 (2020: $1,719,306). The Group’s net assets at the end of the year are $17,310,152 (2020: $15,762,508). Cash and cash equivalents as at year end were $9,593,690 (2020: $10,085,562). Exploration expenditure, including tenement acquisitions, totalled $1,514,824 for the year (2020: $879,535). The main expenditure was on the Ashburton, Halls Creek, the Hamersley JV and new project generation. Exploration expenditure written off for the year was $544,414 (2020: $394,219). The main write offs related to new project generation costs and expenditures relating to the various tenements and/or applications that were relinquished (including two Ashburton tenements) during the financial year. Net administration expenses and employee benefits for the year totalled $871,516 (2020: $1,639,659). During the next financial year the Group intends to continue to further develop its current core projects whilst also exploring new key commodity opportunities both in Australia and overseas. 4. RISKS There are specific risks associated with the activities of the Group and general risks which are largely beyond the control of the Group and the Directors. The risks identified below, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the future financial performance of the Group and the market price of the Company’s shares. All mining ventures are exposed to risks and the Group continues to monitor risks associated with current projects whilst also analysing the risks associated with any new mining opportunities. These risks may cover such areas as: • Economic General economic conditions, introduction of tax reform, new legislation, the general level of activity within the resources industry, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Group’s exploration, development and possible production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities. 2 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 • Climate Change The Group recognises that physical and non-physical impacts of climate change may affect assets, productivity, markets and the community. Risks related to the physical impacts of climate change include the risks associated with increased severity of extreme weather events and chronic risks resulting from longer-term changes in climate patterns. Non-physical risks and opportunities arise from a variety of policy, legal, technological and market responses to the challenges posed by climate change and the transition to a lower carbon world. • Title Risk This may specifically cover mining tenure whereby country specific mining laws and legislation apply. Any opportunity in Australia and overseas will be subject to particular risks associated with operating in Australia or the respective foreign country. These risks may include economic, social or political instability or change, hyperinflation, currency non-convertibility or instability and changes of law affecting foreign ownership, exchange control, exploration licensing, export duties, investment into a foreign country and repatriation of income or return of capital, environmental protection, land access and environmental regulation, mine safety, labour relations as well as government control over mineral properties or government regulations that require the employment of local staff or contractors or require other benefits be provided to local residents. • Exploration Risk The Directors of the Company realise that mineral exploration and development are high risk undertakings due to the high level of inherent uncertainty. There can be no assurance that exploration of the Group’s tenements, or of any other tenements that may be acquired by the Group in the future, will result in the discovery of economic mineralisation. Even if economic mineralisation is discovered there is no guarantee that it can be commercially exploited. Any future exploration activities of the Group may be affected by a range of factors including geological conditions, limitations on activities due to seasonal weather patterns, unanticipated operational and technical difficulties, industrial and environmental accidents, native title process, changing government regulations and many other factors beyond the control of the Group. • Resource Estimates The Group’s projects may contain JORC Code compliant resources. There is no guarantee that a JORC Code compliant resource will be discovered on any of the Group’s other tenements. Resource estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates which were valid when originally calculated may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. In addition, by their very nature, resource estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations which may prove to be inaccurate. As further information becomes available through additional fieldwork and analysis the estimates are likely to change. This may result in alterations to development and mining plans which may, in turn, adversely affect the Group’s operations and the value of the Company’s listed shares. • Access Risks – Cultural Heritage and Native Title The Group must comply with various country specific cultural heritage and native title legislation including access agreements which require various commitments, such as base studies and compliant survey work, to be undertaken ahead of the commencement of mining operations. It is possible that some areas of those tenements may not be available for exploration due to cultural heritage and native title legislation or invalid access agreements. The Group may need to obtain the consent of the holders of such interests before commencing activities on affected areas of the tenements. These consents may be delayed or may be given on conditions which are not satisfactory to the Group. 3 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 • JV and Contractual Risk The Group has and may have additional options where it can increase its holding in the selective assets by achieving or undertaking selected milestones. The Group’s ability to achieve its objectives and earn or maintain an interest in these projects is dependent upon it and the registered holders of those tenements complying with their respective contractual obligations under joint venture agreements in respect of those tenements, and the registered holders complying with the terms and conditions of the tenements and any other relevant legislation. • Market conditions Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Group’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as: introduction of tax reform or other new legislation; interest rates and inflation rates; - general economic outlook; - - - changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors; - - the demand for, and supply of, capital; and terrorism or other hostilities. The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular. Neither the Group nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Group or any return on an investment in the Company. • Volatility in Global Credit and Investment Markets Global credit, commodity and investment markets have recently experienced a high degree of uncertainty and volatility. The factors which have led to this situation have been outside the control of the Group and may continue for some time resulting in continued volatility and uncertainty in world stock markets (including the ASX). This may impact the price at which any Listed Options and Shares trade regardless of operating performance and affect the Company’s ability to raise additional equity and/or debt to achieve its objectives, if required. • Commodity Price Volatility and Exchange Rates Risks If the Group achieves success leading to mineral production, the revenue it will derive through the sale of gold, iron ore, lithium or any other minerals it may discover exposes the potential income of the Group to commodity price and exchange rate risks. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by many factors beyond the control of the Group. Such factors include supply and demand fluctuations for commodities and metals, technological advancements, forward selling activities and other macro- economic factors such as inflation expectations, interest rates and general global economic conditions. Furthermore, international prices of various commodities are denominated in United States dollars whereas the income and expenditure of the Group are and will be taken into account in Australian currency. This exposes the Group to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international markets. If the price of commodities declines this could have an adverse effect on the Group’s exploration, development and possible production activities, and its ability to fund these activities, which may no longer be profitable. • Environmental Risks The operations and proposed activities of the Group are subject to each project’s jurisdiction, laws and regulations concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Group’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. Future legislation and regulations governing exploration, development and possible production may impose significant environmental obligations on the Group. 4 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 The cost and complexity of complying with the applicable environmental laws and regulations may prevent the Group from being able to develop potential economically viable mineral deposits. The Group may require approval from the relevant authorities before it can undertake activities that are likely to impact the environment. Failure to obtain such approvals or to obtain them on terms acceptable to the Group may prevent the Group from undertaking its desired activities. The Group is unable to predict the effect of additional environmental laws and regulations, which may be adopted in the future, including whether any such laws or regulations would materially increase the Group’s cost of doing business or affect its operations in any area. There can be no assurances that new environmental laws, regulations or stricter enforcement policies, once implemented, will not oblige the Group to incur significant expenses and undertake significant investments in such respect which could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition and results of operations. • Sovereign and Political Risk The Group has an 80% interest in two uranium applications in the Czech Republic and a 95% interest in the Kaoko Kobalt Project in Namibia. The Group’s interests in the Czech Republic and Namibia are subject to the risks associated with operating in a foreign country. These risks may include economic, social or political instability or change, hyperinflation, currency non-convertibility or instability and changes of law affecting foreign ownership, exchange control, exploration licensing, export duties, investment into a foreign country and repatriation of income or return of capital, environmental protection, land access and environmental regulation, mine safety, labour relations as well as government control over petroleum properties or government regulations that require the employment of local staff or contractors or require other benefits be provided to local residents. The Group may also be hindered or prevented from enforcing its rights with respect to government instrumentalities because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity. Any future material adverse changes in government policies or legislation in the Czech Republic or Namibia that affect ownership, development or mining activities, may affect the viability and profitability of the Group. The legal systems operating in the Czech Republic and Namibia are different to that in Australia and this may result in risks such as: - Different forms of legal redress in the courts whether in respect of a breach of law or regulation, or in ownership dispute. - A higher degree of discretion on the part of governmental agencies. - Differences in political and administrative guidance on implementing applicable rules and regulations including, in particular, as regards local taxation and property rights. - Different attitudes of the judiciary and court. - Difficult in enforcing judgments. The commitment by local businesses, government officials and agencies and the judicial system to abide by legal requirements and negotiated agreements may be more uncertain, creating particular concerns with respect to licences and agreements for business. These may be susceptible to revision or cancellation and legal redress may be uncertain or delayed. There can be no assurance that joint ventures, licences, licence applications or other legal arrangements will not be adversely affected by the actions of government authorities or others and the effectiveness and enforcement of such arrangements cannot be assured. Further, there is no guarantee that any applications for tenements will be granted or granted on conditions satisfactory to the Group. The Group’s future operations in the Czech Republic and Namibia may be affected by changing political conditions and changes to laws and petroleum and/or mining policies. The effects of these factors cannot be accurately predicted and developments may impede the operation or development of a project or even render it uneconomic. The above risks are not exhaustive but are the minimum exposure areas observed by the Group. 5 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 5. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS Projects Halls Creek (CAZ 100%) The Project is situated 25km southwest of Halls Creek and covers part of the Halls Creek Mobile Zone which is highly prospective for a range of commodities including copper, gold and nickel (Figure 1). The project includes the Mount Angelo North Copper-Zinc deposit, an extensive zone of near surface oxidised Cu-Zn mineralisation overlying massive Cu-Zn sulphide mineralisation. Previous results from work conducted by Cazaly at Mount Angelo included 64m @ 2.7% Cu (1.1% Zn), 62m @ 2.4% Cu (2.8% Zn), 37m @ 2.6% Cu (6.1% Zn), 16m @ 5.9% Cu, 18m @ 2.5% Cu. The Project area also hosts a large lower grade copper deposit associated with a high level porphyritic felsic intrusive at the Bommie prospect located 2.5km to the southwest of the Mount Angelo Copper-Zinc deposit. The Bommie prospect has a large geochemical footprint with coincident Cu-Mo-Bi that extends for 1.2km along strike and over 800m across strike. The porphyry system is host to significant mineralisation with previously reported drill intercepts including 170m @ 0.4% Cu, 178m @ 0.3% Cu and 136m @ 0.3% Cu. Higher-grade intercepts within the mineralised interval include 23m @ 1.0% Cu and 7m @ 1.3% Cu. Figure 1. Location of Halls Creek Project Drilling The Company has recently completed eight (8) RC holes and one (1) diamond tail drillhole at the Mount Angelo Cu-Zn prospect to confirm the continuity of shallow copper mineralisation and test potential extensions to known sulphide mineralisation along strike and down dip. The drilling also tested two adjacent geophysical targets including a strong down hole EM conductor and an IP chargeability anomaly. Intervals of various sulphides were logged in RC drill chips and diamond drill core. All drill samples were sent for analysis for Au, Pt and Pd analysis by Fire Assay and a 47 element suite by four acid digest with ICPMS finish. All analytical results are awaited. 6 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 The drill program was co-funded via the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS), a State Government initiative that aims to encourage exploration in Western Australia. The Company was successful in two applications for co-funding its drilling campaigns at Mount Angelo North (M80/0247) and at the Mount Angelo Porphyry Bommie Prospect (E80/5307) for up to a total of $300,000 subject to programme approvals and clearances. Figure 2. Long Section of Mount Angelo North Cu-Zn deposits with recent drill pierce points and previous intercepts Geochemistry - Surface Sampling A total of 283 soil samples were collected during the quarter on 200 or 100m x 80m grid across priority targets within the project area. 283 samples plus 61 historical soil samples were submitted for analysis for a 48 element suite using four acid digest with ICPMS finish. Analytical results were incorporated in the geochemical dataset and contours were generated for each element. Anomalous Cu, Zn, Mo, Bi results are shown on Figure 3 which highlights the location of the newly defined Noises prospect. The extensive surface geochemical signature at the Bommie prospect provides further encouragement for a large mineralised system. Drilling at the Bommie prospect will be conducted as soon as possible, following appropriate heritage clearances. Geophysics - Ground Magnetic Survey A 34 line kilometres ground magnetic survey was completed across priority target areas to generate a higher resolution dataset to assist with mapping the stratigraphy and mineralisation controls at the Mount Angelo North Cu-Zn deposit. The higher resolution magnetics were found to correlate well with a BIF marker horizon, and additional field mapping will be conducted to refine the BIF location along strike of the Mount Angelo North deposit. A defining feature of the Mount Angelo deposit is the recognition of this BIF unit which acts as a marker horizon within the VMS mineralisation. The unit represents seafloor sedimentation and is typically observed in volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits. The unit is seen in sporadic outcrops along strike for over 1km to the north of the deposit within felsic sediments which host the deposit mineralisation. This area is largely covered by surficial alluvium and has never been drill tested. 7 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 Figure 3. Location of the Bommie prospect and contoured Cu, Zn, Mo and Bi assay results for soil samples collected across the project area Further Work The Company anticipates the Halls Creek Project has significant upside and is highly encouraged by work completed to date. Further surface sampling and ground geophysics will be conducted in due course following the appropriate approvals and clearances to identify and refine new drill ready targets. Additional drilling will also be planned to test extensions to copper-zinc mineralisation at the Mount Angelo North Copper-Zinc deposit and any EM targets identified in the upcoming ground survey at the Bommie Prospect and over the more regional prospects including Noises. Drilling will also test a possible recently identified skarn like target. An EM survey was completed in the September’21 quarter to refine the HeliTEM chargeability anomaly located immediately along strike of known mineralisation. Positive results were announced on 30 September 2021. Ashburton Basin Project (CAZ 100%) Cazaly holds the rights to a major land position covering more than 2,450km2 in the Ashburton Basin, in the Pilbara region of Western Australia (Figure 4). The project covers major regional structures considered to be highly prospective for major gold mineralisation and occurs in the region hosting Northern Star’s (ASX:NST) Paulsen’s gold deposit and Kalamazoo’s (ASX:KZR) recently acquired Mount Olympus gold deposit. The Ashburton Basin forms the northern part of the Capricorn Orogen, a ~1000km long, 500km wide region of variably deformed metamorphosed igneous and sedimentary rocks located between the Yilgarn and Pilbara cratons. 8 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 Figure 4. Location of Ashburton Project relative to major gold deposits in the district The Company applied for tenure within the region following the recognition of the presence of a major deeply seated, crustal scale structure with the potential to host significant mineralisation, the Baring Downs Fault (‘BDF’, figure 5). The BDF lies centrally within the Ashburton Basin which to date has had very little modern exploration. Figure 5: Regional geological setting interpreted from a Deep Seismic Traverse (2010), Ashburton Project (ref: Johnson, SP, Thorne, AM and Tyler, IM (eds) 2011, Capricorn Orogen seismic and magnetotelluric (MT) workshop 2011: extended abstracts: Geological Survey of Western Australia, Record 2011/25, 120p.) In May and June 2021, the Company and its consultants collated and reprocessed all seismic, magnetic, gravity, geological and geochemical datasets across the Ashburton Project and conducted a major litho-structural interpretation of the region (figure 6). This reprocessing resulted in a far greater detailed interpretation of the region compared to previous processing and importantly, identified at least three previously unknown, large-scale, deep seated faults. 9 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 One of these newly identified faults shows a seismically reflective halo near-surface that may evidence alteration/fluid flow along this structure. The interconnected relationship between this deeply seated structure and associated smaller scale faults and deformation within the Wyloo Group has led to targeted areas considered prospective for gold mineralisation. Figure 6: Regional litho-structural interpretation of the Ashburton Basin The technical work conducted to date has successfully highlighted specific areas potentially hosting gold mineralisation. The Company is now finalising heritage access agreements and is designing first pass field work over the targeted areas. Kaoko Kobalt Project (CAZ 95%) Cazaly holds a 95% interest in the Kaoko base metal project located in northern Namibia approximately 800km by road from the capital of Windhoek and approximately 750km from the port of Walvis Bay. The project is situated immediately north of, and abuts, Celsius Resources Limited’s (ASX:CLA) Opuwo Cobalt project resource of 112Mt @ 0.11% Co & 0.41% Cu (CLA ASX: 16 April & 5 November 2018). McKenzie Springs (FIN 51% CAZ 49%) Sammy Resources Pty Ltd (a wholly owned subsidiary of Cazaly) is in joint venture with Fin Resources Ltd (ASX:FIN) over exploration licence E80/4808, the McKenzie Springs Project, located in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. The project lies south along strike from the Savannah nickel mine owned by Panoramic Resources Ltd and is prospective for intrusive - hosted nickel copper mineralisation. Mount Venn Gold Project (WML 80% CAZ 20%) The Mt Venn Gold Project is located 125km northeast of Laverton in the Eastern Goldfields Region of Western Australia and covers approximately 400km2 of prospective greenstone sequence. The project area lies within the Mount Venn-Yamarna-Dorothy Hills greenstone belt which is the most easterly major N-S striking greenstone belt of the Yilgarn Craton (figure 7). The belt is considered highly prospective for gold and nickel and is positioned along the western limb of the Yamarna Greenstone Belt that hosts Gold Road’s and Gold Fields’ plus 6Moz Gruyere Gold Mine. Together the Yilgarn greenstone belts account for 30% of the world’s gold reserves, most of Australia’s nickel production and other base metal and rare earth deposits. The project is subject to an unincorporated Joint Venture between the operators Woomera Mining Limited (Woomera) (ASX:WML) and Cazaly. 10 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 More recent work by Woomera has focused on the Three Bears Gold Trend, that extends over 7km strike and is highly prospective for gold mineralisation. During the June quarter the Mama Bear prospect, located along this trend was drill tested with 25 RC holes for 4,366m and 40 AC holes for 1,457m. Figure 7: Mt Venn Project showing the Mount Cumming Ni prospect and the Three Bears Project located 40km west of the 6Moz Gruyere Gold Mine Drilling results to date confirm the Mama Bear prospect has bedrock gold mineralisation continuity over 600m strike, however further exploration work is required in order to locate the higher grade zones within the mineralised system. Woomera has also planned a ground EM survey to be completed in the September quarter across the ultramafic complex at Mt Cumming, located at the northern end of the Mount Venn Greenstone Belt. Three mafic-ultramafic sills are identified within the Mt Cumming Mafic Complex, namely the Mt Warren Sill, Mt Cornell Sill and the Mt Cumming Sill (Figure 8). Previous airborne and ground EM surveys have identified 8 EM conductors at Mt Cumming that have a number of coincident rock chip and/or soil anomalies (Figure 8). The ground EM survey is designed to refine these targets and provide additional data to prioritise RC drill testing, which is also scheduled for the September quarter. 11 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 Figure 8. EM target locations within the ultramafic complex at the northern end of the Mount Venn Greenstone Belt Hamersley Project (PF1 70% CAZ 30%) The Hamersley Iron Ore Project is an unincorporated Joint Venture between the Company and Pathfinder Resources Ltd. (ASX:PF1). The project is located in the heart of the world-renowned Pilbara iron ore district and currently has a total Mineral Resource estimate of 343.2 Mt at 54.5% Fe (Table 1). The current Mineral Resource for the Hamersley Iron Ore Project is reported in accordance with the Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (2012) (JORC Code 2012) (refer to Pathfinder’s ASX Announcement dated 24 January 2020). Table 1: JORC Code 2012 Mineral Resource Estimate for the Hamersley Iron Ore Project 12 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 On 9 July 2021, the Company, together with Pathfinder, announced the sale of the project to Equinox Resources Limited who intend to undertake an initial public offer (“IPO”) and seek a listing on the official list of the Australian Securities Exchange. The IPO will raise between $7 million and $9 million (before costs) through the offer of between 35 million and 45 million shares, at an issue price of $0.20 per share. Under the proposed transaction, Cazaly will receive 15,0000,000 shares in Equinox plus between 2,550,000 and 2,850,000 performance shares (based on Equinox IPO subscription value) enabling Cazaly and its shareholders the ability to maintain exposure to the Project via the Company’s equity interest in Equinox. The proposed transaction will create a new listed entity, assisted by a dedicated board and management team, with a sole focus on exploration and development of the Project. The proposed spin- out will also allow Cazaly to focus its efforts on advancing its other 100% owned projects as well as exploring new opportunities. The IPO was lodged with ASIC and ASX on 31 August 2021. Other Field reconnaissance work will shortly be conducted at the recently granted Yabbie (formerly known as Brown Well) project (CAZ 100%) located in the Laverton district of Western Australia. Mineral Resources Limited (ASX:MIN) has stated that they expect to commence production from the Parker Range mine, where the Company has a royalty interest, in September 2021 quarter pending final approvals. Cazaly is reviewing its position in relation to its interest in two exploration applications in the Czech Republic as it continues to encounter in-country difficulties in advancing these to grant. The Company also continues to assess other potential project opportunities for the Company. Corporate Equity Issues During the financial year, 100% of the outstanding $0.029 (expiring 31 March 2021) and $0.039 (expiring 26 November 2020) options, were converted to fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, for proceeds of $767,650. Other On 19 April 2021, the Company announced the appointment of Ms Tara French as the new Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director of the Company. Tara was previously the General Manager of Exploration at Regis Resources Limited where she was employed for 14 years and played a key role in the company’s transition and growth over that time. In readiness for the commencement of Ms French on 12 July 2021, Clive Jones reverted to the role of Executive Director whilst Nathan McMahon became a Non- Executive Director. The Group continued to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely and has continually been managing the situation in a balanced, calm and measured way. 6. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS, PROSPECTS AND BUSINESS STRATEGIES The Group will continue its mineral exploration activity at and around its exploration projects with the object of identifying commercial resources. The Group has continued to reduce its tenement holdings but is also focussed on sourcing key commodity projects. 7. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN STATE OF AFFAIRS There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year. 13 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 8.

REMUNERATION REPORT - AUDITED This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of the Company. Remuneration Policy The remuneration policy of Cazaly has been designed to align Director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an annual basis in line with market rates and Group performance. The further tailoring of goals between shareholders and the Directors and executives is achieved through the issue of equity to the directors and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interest. The Board of the Company believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best personnel to run and manage the Company, as well as create goal congruence between Directors, executives and shareholders. The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the Directors and executives was developed by the Executive and approved by the Board after seeking professional advice from independent external consultants. In determining continuing, 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 plans and other benefit schemes. The Group is exploration and development focussed, and therefore speculative in terms of performance. Consistent with attracting and retaining talented people, the Directors and executives are paid market rates associated with individuals in similar positions, within the same industry. 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 remuneration paid to Directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed or carried forward on the balance sheet for time that is attributable to exploration and evaluation. 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 Executive, in consultation with independent advisors as necessary, determine and review Non-Executive Directors’ 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, all Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company. Employment Details All Directors have engagement contracts in place. Mr Jones is currently an Executive Director on a remuneration package totalling $216,804. Mr McMahon was previously a joint Managing Director of the Company but reverted to the role of Non- Executive Director upon the commencement of Ms Tara French as CEO. His engagement contract was adjusted to an annual equivalent fee of $60,000. Mr Terry Gardiner, a Non-Executive Director is employed by the Company on an annual salary of $50,000 (plus statutory superannuation). 15 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 11.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Cazaly Resources Limited (the Company or Cazaly) and its controlled entities (the Group). Cazaly Resources Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The financial statements were authorised for issue on 30 September 2021 by the Directors of the Company. Basis of Preparation The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. Standards, Australian Accounting Australian Accounting Standards set out in accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. These financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. Going Concern The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. (a) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by the Company at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity’s activities. Control will generally exist when the parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than half of the voting power of an entity. In assessing the power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are also considered. Where controlled entities have entered or left the Group during the year, the financial performance of those entities are included only for the period of the year that they were controlled. A list of controlled entities, as at 30 June 2021 is contained in Note 21 to the financial statements. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the Group have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the Company. Non-controlling interests, being the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, are shown separately within the Equity section of the consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income. The non-controlling interest in the net assets comprises their interests at the date of the original business combination and their share of changes in equity since that date. (b) Plant and Equipment 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. 25 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (c) Depreciation Depreciation is provided on plant and equipment. 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 depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are plant and equipment (40%), office furniture and equipment (18%) and motor vehicles (22.5%). The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The value for office furniture and equipment was written down to nil at 30 June 2021. 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 Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. (d) Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure Costs incurred during exploration and evaluations relating to an area of interest are accumulated. Costs are carried forward to the extent they are expected to be recouped through successful development, or by sale, or where exploration and evaluation activities have not yet 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. Accumulated costs carried forward in respect of an area of interest that is abandoned are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made. When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest will be amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to capitalise costs in relation to that area of interest. Costs of site restoration are provided over the life of the project from when exploration commences and are included in the costs of that stage. Site restoration costs include the dismantling and removal of mining plant, equipment and building structures, waste removal, and rehabilitation of the site in accordance with clauses of the mining permits. Such costs have been estimated of future costs, current legal requirements and technology on an undiscounted basis. (e) 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 consolidated group are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised by 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 straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term. 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. 26 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (f) Financial Instruments Financial Assets Initial Recognition and Measurement Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss. The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. The Group’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognised in the statement of profit or loss. This category includes listed equity investments which the Group had not irrevocably elected to classify at fair value through OCI. Dividends on listed equity investments are also recognised as other income in the statement of profit or loss when the right of payment has been established. Derecognition A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e., removed from the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position) when: • The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or • The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset. The Group considers a financial asset in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Group may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Group. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows 27 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) Financial Liabilities Initial Recognition and Measurement Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables as appropriate. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payable and convertible notes. The accounting policy on convertible notes are at 1(v). (g) 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-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. (h) 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. (i) Revenue and Other Income 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). (j) Impairment of Assets At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another standard (eg in accordance with the revaluation model in AASB 116). Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other standard. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. (k) 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 statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of financial position. 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. 28 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (l) 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. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. Cazaly 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. (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 Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. 29 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) 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 The Group operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the good or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amount is shown in the option reserve. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using a Black–Scholes pricing model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. (p) Issued Capital 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 earnings per share 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 Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end of the reporting period. 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. (s) Interest in Joint Operations A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. When a Group entity undertakes its activities under joint operations, the Group as a joint operator recognises in relation to its interest in a joint operation: • • • • • its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly. 30 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) The Group accounts for the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its interest in a joint operation in accordance with the AASBs applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. When a Group entity transacts with a joint operation in which a Group entity is a joint operator (such as a sale or contribution of assets), the Group is considered to be conducting the transaction with the other parties to the joint operation, and gains and losses resulting from the transactions are recognised in the Group's consolidated financial statements only to the extent of other parties' interests in the joint operation. When a Group entity transacts with a joint operation in which a Group entity is a joint operator (such as a purchase of assets), the Group does not recognise its share of the gains and losses until it resells those assets to a third party. (t) Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements 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 –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(d). 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. Key Judgments – 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. (u) Fair value measurements The Group measures and recognises the asset, ‘Financial assets held for trading’ at fair value on a recurring basis after initial recognition. The Group does not subsequently measure any liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. 31 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (i) Fair Value Hierarchy AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement requires the disclosure of fair value information by level of the fair value hierarchy, which categorises fair value measurements into one of three possible levels based on the lowest level that an input that is significant to the measurement can be categorised into as follows: Level 1 Measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. Level 2 Measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 Measurements based on unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. If all significant inputs required to measure fair value are observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If one or more significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the asset or liability is included in Level 3. (ii) Valuation techniques The Company selects a valuation technique that is appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value. The availability of sufficient and relevant data primarily depends on the specific characteristics of the asset or liability being measured. The valuation technique selected by the Company is the Market approach whereby valuation techniques use prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions for identical or similar assets or liabilities. When selecting a valuation technique, the Company gives priority to those techniques that maximise the use of observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs that are developed using market data (such as publicly available information on actual transactions) and reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would generally use when pricing the asset or liability are considered observable, whereas inputs for which market data is not available and therefore are developed using the best information available about such assumptions are considered unobservable. The following table provides the fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities measured and recognised on a recurring basis after initial recognition and their categorisation within the fair value hierarchy: Recurring fair value measurements Note Level 1 $ Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: 30 June 2021 Level 2 $ Level 3 $ Total $ - - Australian listed shares at fair value 2,491,151 unlisted Australian shares - 2,491,151 - - - Recurring fair value measurements Note Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: 30 June 2020 Level 1 $ Level 2 $ Level 3 $ - - Australian listed shares at fair value 1,514,427 unlisted Australian shares - 1,514,427 - - - - - - - - - 2,491,151 - 2,491,151 Total $ 1,514,427 - 1,514,427 32 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) (v) Revenue Recognition Grant revenue Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognised as income in equal amounts over the expected useful life of the related asset. When the Group receives grants of non-monetary assets, the asset and the grant are recorded at nominal amounts and released to profit or loss over the expected useful life of the asset, based on the pattern of consumption of the benefits of the underlying asset by equal annual instalments. Operating revenue Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customer. Interest revenue Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method. (w) Operating Leases The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Group as a lessee The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets. i) Right-of-use assets The Group recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right- of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets (office premises) are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets. This is 3 years. If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Group at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset. The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment. ii) Lease liabilities At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs. 33 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d) In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. The Group’s lease liabilities are included in Interest-bearing loans and borrowings, refer note 27. iii) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of machinery and equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Group as a lessor Leases in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income arising is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms and is included in revenue in the statement of profit or loss due to its operating nature. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned. (x) New, revised or amending accounting standards and interpretations adopted Adoption of new and revised Accounting Standards The Group has adopted all new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are relevant to its operations and effective for an accounting period that begins on or after 1 January 2020. Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted The Group has reviewed the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on issue not yet adopted for the year ended 30 June 2021. As a result of this review the Group has determined that there is no material impact of the Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted on the Company and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies. 34 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 2. 2.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, held-for-trading investments, cash and short-term deposits. The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the oversight and management of the Group’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 Group’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 Group. Interest rate risks The Group’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 Statement of Financial Position and notes to the financial statements. The Consolidated group 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 Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties. Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions is managed by the board. The board’s policy requires that surplus funds are only invested with counterparties with a Standard & Poor’s rating of at least A+. All of the Group’s surplus funds are invested with AA and A+ Rated financial institutions, the amount is $9,593,690 (2020: $10,085,562). Liquidity risk The responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors. The Consolidated group 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 Group’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.

The Group is managed primarily on the basis of its exploration and corporate activities. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis. Exploration Segment assets, including acquisition cost of exploration licenses, all expenses related to the tenements and profit on sale of tenements are reported on in this segment. Segment assets Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of economic value from the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location. Unless indicated otherwise in the segment assets note, deferred tax assets and intangible assets have not been allocated to operating segments. Segment liabilities Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables. Unallocated items Non-recurring items of revenue or expenses are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered part of the core operations of any segment. 2021 Revenue Interest received Other Total segment revenue Segment net operating profit (loss) before tax Depreciation Impairment of exploration assets Share based payments Segment assets Exploration expenditure Property, plant & equipment Segment liabilities Exploration $ Unallocated $ Total $ - 70,401 70,401 (473,121) - 543,522 - 5,294,693 - 63,390 53,006 202,300 255,306 1,189,6978 77,898 - 63,517 - 23,505 364,434 53,006 272,701 325,707 716,577 77,898 543,542 63,517 5,294,693 23,505 427,824 45 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Cazaly Resources Limited Annual Report 2021 2020 Revenue Interest received Other Total segment revenue Segment net operating profit (loss) before tax Depreciation Impairment of exploration assets Share based payments Segment assets Exploration expenditure Property, plant and equipment Segment liabilities Exploration $ Unallocated $ Total $ - 3,917,005 3,917,005 3,522,786 - 394,219 - 4,324,283 4,324,283 - 8,555 149,730 212,080 361,810 (1,803,480) 14,398 - 255,438 11,949,794 - 15,276 503,015 149,730 4,129,085 4,278,815 1,719,306 14,398 394,219 255,438 16,274,078 4,324,283 15,276 511,570 23.

Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. 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 Consolidated Entity 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 Evaluation and Evaluation Assets Our procedures included, amongst others: (Refer to Note 11) • Exploration and evaluation is a key audit matter due to: • The significance of the balance to the Consolidated Entity’s financial position. • The level of judgement required in evaluating management’s application of the requirements of AASB 6 Exploration of Mineral for and Evaluation Resources. AASB 6 is an industry specific accounting standard requiring significant the application of judgements, estimates and knowledge. This industry includes specific requirements for expenditure to be capitalised as an asset and subsequent requirements which must be complied for capitalised expenditure with continue to be carried as an asset. to • Assessed management’s determination of its areas of interest for consistency with the definition in AASB 6. This involved analysing the tenements in which the consolidated entity holds an interest and for the exploration programs planned those tenements. • For each area of interest, we assessed the Consolidated Entity’s rights to tenure by corroborating to government registries and evaluating agreements in place with other parties as applicable; • We tested the additions to capitalised expenditure for the year by evaluating a for sample of recorded expenditure consistency to underlying records, the the capitalisation requirements of Consolidated Entity’s accounting policy and the requirements of AASB 6; • We considered the activities in each area of interest to date and assessed the planned future activities for each area of interest by evaluating budgets for each area of interest. • We assessed each area of interest for one or more of the following circumstances that may indicate impairment of the capitalised expenditure: o the licenses for the right to explore expiring in the near future or are not expected to be renewed; o substantive expenditure for further exploration in the specific area is neither budgeted or planned o decision the Consolidated Entity to discontinue intent by or activities in the specific area of of interest lack due to commercially viable quantities of resources; and o data indicating that, although a development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying amount of the exploration asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or sale; and o We assessed the appropriateness of the related disclosures in note 11 to the financial statements. Other Information The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Consolidated Entity’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 accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the directors also state in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Consolidated Entity’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 Consolidated Entity or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. 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. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Consolidated Entity’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Consolidated Entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Consolidated Entity to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Consolidated Entity to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Consolidated Entity audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Report on the Remuneration Report We have audited the Remuneration Report included in the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2021. The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the remuneration report in accordance with s 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the remuneration report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Auditor’s Opinion In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of the Company, for the year ended 30 June 2021, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
