Operations Report
HIGH GRADE ZONE (HGZ) PROJECT AT CRATER MOUNTAIN, PAPUA NEW GUINEA
During the year, the Company took appropriate precautions and actions to protect our staff and business operations, including
precautions as advised and suggested by the World Health Organization, the Australian Government and the Government of Papua
New Guinea (PNG).
First and foremost, our priority is the health, safety and wellbeing of our staff and the people of the communities in which we operate
and as such, the Company is actively monitoring the COVID-19 situation and its potential impacts on these groups.
Due to continual spread of the COVID-19 virus, the PNG Government put in place travel restrictions, both domestic and international,
which remains in place to this day. This combined with reduction in flight connections into PNG has hampered the Company’s ability
to move expatriate personnel in and out of PNG. Whilst recent changes have re-opened domestic travel in PNG, the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic is still being felt in the area where the Company operates, with many of the logistics providers remaining closed,
or offering limited services.
Due to the ongoing nature of these factors and their impact on our ability to access our operations reliably on an ongoing basis, all
production and exploration activities continue to remain suspended at present.
In the meantime, the Company remains focused on the renewal process of EL1115 and ML510 and is working closely with the Mineral
Resources Authority (MRA) to secure a new ten (10) year mining licence, in addition to working in parallel for the renewal and grant
of exploration licenses at the Company’s Crater Mountain Gold Project.

GOLDEN GATE GRAPHITE PROJECT, CROYDON, NORTH QLD
METALLURGICAL TEST WORK
•
•
FLOTATION RECOVERY OF 89.4% GRAPHITE OBTAINED FROM AN 850 MICRON SAMPLE AT A CONCENTRATE GRADE OF
76.9% CARBON.
TESTING OF VARYING GRAIN SIZE SAMPLES ONGOING TO DETERMINE THE OPTIMUM ON WHICH TO BASE ON-GOING
METALLURGICAL TESTING.
• ON-GOING TEST WORK TO FOCUS ON DETERMINING WHAT RANGE OF GRAPHITE END PRODUCTS SUCH AS FLAKE SIZE,
MICRONISING AND SPHERONISATION MIGHT BE POSSIBLE.
During the year the Company announced results from ongoing metallurgical test work on graphite mineralisation from the
Golden Gate Graphite Project at Croydon in North Queensland (Graphite Metallurgical Test Work, Golden Gate Graphite
Project, Croydon, QLD., 20 June 2022).
ALS Metallurgy Perth, undertook a flotation test on an 850 micron sample (composite 2) with encouraging results obtained.
A total of 89.4% of the graphite feed reported to a rougher concentrate, with the concentrate being found to have a graphite
grade of 76.9%. No attempt was made to purify the graphite as previous caustic baking of a lower grade graphite rougher
concentrate had provided an excellent graphite purity of 98.9%.
Testing of additional grain sizes is being undertaken to determine the optimum grain size for on-going test work. An
optimised flotation rougher concentrate of that selected grain size will then be prepared and screened to determine the
graphite flake size distribution which will indicate its potential market value. Based on previous petrographic examination,
it is anticipated that the mix of graphite sizes possibly present may include fine-flake, through to large, jumbo and perhaps
super jumbo flake sizes. If favourable results are obtained, test work would then be undertaken to establish if high value-
added micronisation and/or spheronisation graphite production might be economically achievable.
During the year, the Company announced that very high Indium assays up to 190.0 ppm were obtained from the re-assay
of six (6) selected intervals from three drill holes previously drilled at Anomaly A2 in 2006/2007 at the Company's
Polymetallic Project in North Qld (“High Indium Assays in Drill Core for Polymetallic Project” dated 9 November 2020). A
very high silver value of 2,250 g/t (0.225%) was also obtained from a 0.75m interval from hole DDH A2-008 (361.85-362.60m).
As previously announced to the ASX (High Graphite Recovery and Purity Obtained from Metallurgical Test Work, Golden Gate
Graphite Project, 24 July 2019), the Company drilled two diamond core holes in the thick graphite mineralisation in the previously
identified Golden Gate Graphite Project area in EPM 18616. The purpose of this was to obtain fresh graphite mineralisation for
metallurgical testing and to verify the previously reported drill intersections at the sites selected. The results obtained were as
follows:
•
•
Hole GGDDH 1701 62.7m @ 6.79% GC from 29.3m (cut off 3.4% GC
incl 7.0m @10.07 % graphitic carbon (cut off 9.4% GC)
Hole GGDDH 1702 53.9m @ 6.79% GC from 69.1m (cut off 3.1% GC)
incl 14.0m @ 8.79% graphitic carbon (cut off 6.1% GC)
As also announced to the ASX (Jumbo and Large Flake Graphite identified at Golden Gate, 12 April 2018), petrological examination
of drill core samples from both drill holes identified the presence of significant graphite flake sizes of 0.05 to 0.50mm and some
>0.5mm (fine, large, jumbo and some super jumbo flake size), with an average of around 0.25mm.
As composite sample (composite 1) of the graphite mineralisation from hole GGDDH 1701, had been consumed in previous test
work, a new composite sample (composite 2) was prepared from hole GGDDH 1702 for the recent test work. This sample was
taken from the top 18m of the graphite intersection which would perhaps approximate the first three benches of an open-cut
mining operation.
AERIAL ELECTROMAGNETIC SURVEY (HEM) OVER CROYDON TENEMENTS
•
•
HEM SURVEY OVER ALL 5 EPM’S IN QLD.
TARGETING GOLD, GRAPHITE & POLYMETALLICS.
The Company announced that it signed an agreement to undertake a helicopter borne Electro-Magnetic Survey (HEM), combined
with aeromagnetic surveying, over all 5 of its Queensland based tenements at Croydon (Aerial Electromagnetic Survey (HEM) to
be undertaken over North Queensland Croydon Tenements, 18 May 2022). The contractor engaged for the survey was New
Generation Geophysics (NRG) Xcite utilising their Airborne Electromagnetic (AEM) system. The survey has now been completed
with results anticipated.
The Company holds five Exploration Permits Mining (EPM) in the Croydon region of North Queensland for a combined area of
227.2 km2. The EPMs cover 5 priority aeromagnetic anomalies (A1, A2, A3, A5 and A6) interpreted from Government aerial surveys
and 3 residual gravity anomalies (G1, G2 and G3) identified from a combination of Government regional ground surveys and
detailed ground surveying by the Company (Figure 1,6).

Directors’ Report
Currently, there is strong renewed interest in the Croydon area, particularly for gold, as evidenced by the many small to medium
sized exploration companies who have taken up, or applied for, tenements covering most of the Croydon Goldfield and some of
its surroundings. Recorded gold production from the Croydon Goldfield has been almost one million ounces. This is considered to
offer considerable encouragement as modern day examination of similar worldwide occurrences of this size has often resulted in
the discovery of previously unrecognised significant world class +one million ounce hard rock gold deposits.
HEM SURVEYING
HEM surveying is considered to be the optimum technical choice for evaluating the potential of the Croydon tenements as the
technique has achieved outstanding success both in Australia and world-wide. The survey will target graphite mineralisation, gold
bearing quartz reef mineralisation and polymetallic mineralisation, and is capable of penetrating up to several hundred metres below
ground surface. Survey flight lines were orientated E-W with a N-S line spacing of 400m with 200m infill line spacing where better
anomaly definition was required. Excluding 200m infill lines, the survey overall will involve a total of 602 line kilometres of data
acquisition.
Detection of gold bearing quartz reefs by the EM technique is dependent on there being a reasonable presence of sulphides
associated with the gold mineralisation. However, detection of auriferous quartz reefs, even if they are low in sulphide content, will
be enhanced by the fact that the Croydon Goldfield Au occurrences are usually closely associated with graphite mineralisation which
provides an excellent EM response. Polymetallic mineralisation, where identified to date at Anomaly A2, is accompanied by pyrrhotite
which also provides an excellent EM response.
To the Company’s knowledge, detailed aerial EM surveying has not previously been conducted over the Company’s EPM’s or
surrounding regions. However, some ground EM surveying was undertaken in the 1930’s to late 1980’s and this identified numerous
strong EM anomalies within EPM 8795 and along the western margin of EPM 18616 (Figure 4).
It is anticipated that the HEM survey may identify extensions to some of the Company’s known gold and graphite prospects and it is
hoped that new prospects will also be identified.

HEM SURVEY OF EPMs 8795 AND 18616 – TARGETING GOLD AND GRAPHITE
Survey flight lines in EPMs 8795 and 18616 were orientated E-W with a N-S line spacing of 400m. Infill lines at 200m spacing were
undertaken where better anomaly definition was required (Figure 2). Excluding any 200m spaced infill lines, the 400m spaced lines
will involved a total of 177 line kilometres of data acquisition within the two tenements.

Directors’ Report
GOLD TARGETS
Figure 2: 400m spaced E-W flight lines, EPMs 8795 & 18616
There are around 60 old gold workings shown on Figure 3, within the Company’s EPMs 8795 and 18616, but there are many more
that exist that are not included. The gold deposits are contained within two main trends, one trending NW-SE along the eastern
margin of EPM 18616 with the other trending through EPM 8795 and the western margin of EPM18616. The latter trend has been
the more productive, accounting for more than 50% of the gold produced to date from the Croydon Goldfield.
Of particular interest is the identification of possible extensions of the Golden Gate quartz reef system (western side trend). The old-
time miners mainly worked the gold occurrences that were evident from quartz scree at ground surface and did very little sub-surface
exploration. As many of the gold occurrences in the Croydon Goldfield did not crop out, they were often only discovered by persistent
“blind” sinking of shafts.
It is considered likely that further review of the historical exploration and drilling data, combined with the EM results from the
upcoming HEM survey from other areas within EPMs 8795 and 18616, will identify more gold prospects that warrant drilling and
evaluation in addition to the Sunset North Prospect identified to date within EPM 8795. The Company is fortunate in that it has access
to old archived reports and maps covering previous company exploration and Au mining activities in the Croydon area.

GRAPHITE TARGETS
Graphite is an excellent conductor and generates strong EM anomalies. Significant EM anomalies within the area now covered by
EPMs 8795 & 18616, have been identified in a NW-SE trending zone by previous old EM ground based surveys conducted in the
1930’s to late 1980’s (Figure 4). This zone has a strike extent of at least 12km, only around 2km of which is partly located within the
restricted activities area of the Golden Gate Mining and Town Complex Heritage Area (Figure 4).
Previous exploration for graphite was undertaken by Central Coast Exploration NL and Pancontinental at Golden Gate within EPM
18616 which resulted in the discovery of extensive graphite mineralisation. Drill intercepts indicate the mineralisation has a north-
westerly strike and a shallow easterly dip. Approximately two thirds of the graphite mineralisation at Golden Gate is now located
within the Heritage and Buffer Zone which restricts exploration activities that would impact on the protected area. Specific permission
is required to undertake exploration or mining activities within the Zones and comply with the conditions set.
The source of many of the previous EM anomalies is not known but it is expected that they will encompass a mixture of sources.

Petrological examination and metallurgical test work undertaken on the graphite mineralisation obtained from two
diamond drill holes drilled at Golden Gate outside of the Heritage area has provided encouragement. In particular, the
graphite has been identified as being present in flake form, ranging in size from 0.05 to 0.50mm (< 0.18mm is fine graphite,
0.18 to 0.30mm is large flake size and 0.30 to 0.50mm is jumbo flake size), with an average size of around 0.25mm and with
strong evidence for it being of hydrothermal origin1,2. When a flotation concentrate was subjected to a two-stage caustic
bake, an impressive graphite product at a purity of 98.9% was obtained, indicating that the caustic bake stage was effective
in removing most, if not all, of the gangue contaminants from the sample1,2. For both the petrological examination and the
metallurgical testwork previous announcements, the Company is not aware of any new information that materially affects
the information provided at that time.
HEM SURVEY OF EPMs 13775 AND 26749 TARGETING POLYMETALLIC MINERALISATION
Survey flight lines were flown with an orientation of E-W with a N-S line spacing of 400m. Infill lines at a spacing of 200m spacing
were undertaken where better anomaly definition was required. The 400m spaced E-W flight survey lines for EPMs 13775 and 26749
are shown on Figure 5. Excluding any infill lines, the 400m spaced lines involved a total of 346 line kilometres of data acquisition.
The targets in these 2 EPMs are polymetallics which would be expected to generate strong EM anomalism due to their expected high
sulphide content, especially pyrrhotite. Widespread sulphide mineralisation was previously discovered in drilling by the Company at
Anomaly A2 in EPM 13775 (refer to ASX Announcement entitled “Polymetallic-tin massive sulphide drill intercepts show potential for
discovery of significant mineral deposits at Croydon, Qld”, 28 February 2012). It is hoped that the upcoming early to mid-June HEM
survey will define extensions of the known mineralisation at Anomaly A2 and generate new priority drill targets. It is also hoped that
priority targets will also be identified in the Anomaly A1 area. In addition, if as interpreted, the prominent NW-SE and WNW-ESE
trending faults within both tenements are hosting polymetallic mineralisation feeder zones to the Anomaly A1 and A2 mineralisation
(Figure 6), it is hoped that identification of new priority targets will be identified. It is interesting to note that an EPM has recently
been granted that adjoins the SE end of EPM 26749 and which appears to be targeting the Wallabadah Fault further along strike to
the ESE (Figure 6).

Directors’ Report
HEM SURVEY OF EPM 16002
There are three aeromagnetic anomalies, A5, A6 and A3 located within EPM 16002 (Figure 1). All three of these were included in the
HEM survey.
Survey flight lines were orientated E-W with a N-S line spacing of 400m. Infill lines at a spacing of 200m spacing were undertaken
where better anomaly definition is required. The 400m spaced E-W flight survey lines for the three separate blocks of EPM 16002 are
shown on Figures 7, 8 and 9. Excluding any 200m infill lines, the 400m spaced lines for the three anomalies covered a total of 79 line
kilometres of data acquisition.
ANOMALY A5
Aeromagnetic Anomaly A5, was ranked by geophysical consultant, Roger Deakin, as the most prospective aeromagnetic anomaly
after Anomaly A2 and is located about 17km NW of Anomaly A2 (Figure 1). This aeromagnetic anomaly is a small discrete, almost
circular low, approximately 30 nT in amplitude, 800m in diameter and located in the central western side of the encompassing EPM
block (Figures 1, 7). It occurs immediately SW of a larger anomaly complex that is elongated NW-SE, is about 20km in length and
about 10km in width. It was initially investigated by Spatiotemporal Geochemical Hydrocarbon (SGH) soil sampling. This indicated co-
incident polymetallic-silver-copper anomalism which was partly overlapped by gold anomalism all of which directly overlies the
central part of the main (western) aeromagnetic low which is a reversed magnetic high feature (refer to ASX Announcement entitled
“Gold and Silver-Copper-Polymetallic Anomalies Identified from SGH Soil Sampling at the A5 Anomaly Prospect, North Qld”, 12 June
2018). This has provided encouragement as the intersected A2 polymetallic mineralisation is also associated with a magnetic low
which is a reversed magnetic high.
Figure 7 shows the 4 sub-block tenement area of EPM 16002 that covers Anomaly A5 and the 400m spaced E-W flight survey lines.
Excluding any 200m spaced infill lines, this involved a total of 36 line kilometres of data acquisition.
Figure 7: 400m spaced E-W flight lines, Aeromagnetic Anomaly A5, EPM 16002
ANOMALY A6
Aeromagnetic Anomaly A6, was ranked as the most prospective aeromagnetic anomaly after Anomaly A2 and Anomaly A5 and is
located about 18km NE of Anomaly A2 (Figure 1). It consists of a N-S elongated low and a sub-circular, but spatially complex, high
(Figure 8). The anomalous high is immediately east of the low and the overall anomaly complex has affinities to Anomaly 2.
Figure 8 shows the 1 sub-block tenement area of EPM 16002 that covers Anomaly A6 and the 400m spaced E-W flight survey lines.
Excluding any 200m spaced infill lines, this involved a total of 11 line kilometres of data acquisition.

ANOMALY A3
This aeromagnetic anomaly is a small discrete, almost circular low, of approximately 20nT in amplitude and around 1500m in diameter
and is located 20 km west of Anomaly A2 (Figure 1). It is possibly part of, or at least associated with, relatively subtle, WNW and NW
trending positive linear anomalies that are more apparent further to the SE. It appears from the data that the anomaly is caused by
a body with reversed remanent magnetisation. The depths below ground surface to the main possible sources range from 170 to
245m.
Figure 9 shows the 4 sub-block tenement area of EPM 16002 that covers Anomaly A3 and the 400m spaced E-W flight survey lines.
Excluding any 200m spaced infill lines, this involved a total of 32 line kilometres of data acquisition.

Corporate
On 9 July 2021, the Company requested a voluntary suspension of its securities pending the finalisation of the details of a material
acquisition. The Company deemed a voluntary suspension necessary to enable the Company to manage its continuous disclosure
obligations and to avoid trading in its securities happening on a basis that is not reasonably informed. The voluntary suspension was
extended on 16 October 2021, 15 December 2021 and 16 March 2022.
On 16 September 2022, the Company announced it was not proceeding with the material acquisition. The Company is in the process
of considering alternative strategies and has made submissions to ASX seeking ASX’s confirmation that if the Company implements
its proposed alternative strategies (which largely involve continued exploration of the Company’s existing assets) that the suspension
of trading in the Company’s securities will be lifted. The Company expects the suspension to last until the earlier of the
commencement of normal trading on 31 December 2022, or by the release of an announcement by the Company.
On 31 January 2022, 11,531,995 ordinary fully paid shares were issued on the conversion of Performance Rights. A further
108,162,160 Performance Rights expired unexercised on 31 January 2022.
On 15 March 2022, the Company announced to the market that it had executed a new loan agreement for $2,000,000 with Freefire
Technology Ltd. The new facility is unsecured, has an applicable interest rate of 8% p.a. and is repayable one year from the date of
the first drawdown unless agreed otherwise in advance.
Significant Changes in the State of Affairs
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the consolidated entity during the financial year.
Matters Subsequent to the End of the Financial Year
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is ongoing. Operations at the Crater Mountain in Papua New Guinea were suspended during
the year as announced on 25 March 2020. The situation is continually developing and is dependent on measures imposed by the
Australian and Papua New Guinean Governments, such as maintaining social distancing requirements, travel restrictions and any
economic stimulus that may be provided.
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2022 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the Group's
operations, the results of those operations, or the Group's state of affairs in future financial years.

The Company has an ’exploration target’ of ‘multi-million ounces’ for the epithermal gold resources at the Nevera Prospect at Crater
Mountain Project. A targeting exercise was carried out by Mining Associates (“MA”) for the Nevera prospect using a simple 10x10x10m
block model informed by 5 m bench channel samples (not including rock chips) and a Nearest Neighbour (“NN”) estimation technique
with a limited search range. The NN method was chosen so that no averaging of the grades occurred although there is a risk that
estimates can be over selective. As the initial target is highly selective narrow underground mining, this is an acceptable approach.
An initial examination of the composited data shows two natural breaks in Au grade distribution. One at about 0.4 g/t Au and a second
at about 10 g/t Au. MA suggests that these represent low grade and high mineralisation events respectively. The block model was
informed using a 100m spherical search so that no assumption was made of the direction and trend of mineralisation. Informing
samples consisted of 2,766 5 m downhole composites and 1,479 5 m bench samples. No domain selection was used, but no blocks
above the topography were estimated. Volume covered is about 700 m long, 700 m wide and 100 m to 350 m deep (variable with
topography). This is certainly suitable for both selective mining and a bulk open pit. A bulk density of 2.5 t/m3 was used for reporting,
the grade tonnage plot using cut-off grades from 1 to 20 g/t Au was reported. The target for Nevera prospect bulk open pit mining
using a cut-off grade 1 g/t Au is 24 Mt @ 2.7 g/t Au for 2Moz of contained Au. The target for the HGZ only for selective underground
mining using a cut-off grade 10g/t is 60-100koz @ 13-30 g/t. The exploration targets are conceptual in nature as there has been
insufficient exploration to define them as Mineral Resources. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a
Mineral Resource under the JORC Code 2012. The exploration targets are not being reported as part of any Mineral Resource.
No New Information or Data
This report contains references to exploration results and Mineral Resource estimates, all of which have been cross-referenced to
previous announcements made by the Company. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that
materially affects the information included in the relevant announcements and in the case of estimates of Mineral Resources, that all
material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the relevant market announcement continue to apply
and have not materially changed.

The Company has a Remuneration and Nomination Committee. The Board has adopted a Remuneration and Nomination Policy
which provides advice on remuneration and incentive policies and practices and specific recommendations on remuneration
packages and other terms of employment for executive Directors, other senior executives and Non-Executive Directors. The
performance of the Company is taken into consideration when the remuneration policies of the Company are assessed by the
Committee. The Corporate Governance Statement provides further information on the role of this Committee.
Executive Remuneration
The remuneration policy ensures that contracts for services are reviewed on a regular basis and properly reflect the duties and
responsibilities of the individuals concerned. The executive remuneration structure is based on a number of factors including relevant
market conditions, knowledge and experience with the industry, organisational experience, performance of the Company and that
the remuneration is competitive in retaining and attracting motivated people. There are no guaranteed pay increases included in
the senior executives' contracts.
Fixed remuneration consists of base salary, superannuation and non-monetary benefits.
Non-Executive Directors
Fees and payments to Non-Executive Directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the Directors.
Non-executive Directors’ fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board.

Directors’ Report
Indemnity and insurance of auditor
The Company has not, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the Company
or any related entity against a liability incurred by the auditor.
During the financial year, the Company has not paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the auditor of the Company or any
related entity.
Proceedings on behalf of the Company
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the
Company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of
the Company for all or part of those proceedings.
Non-Audit Services
The Group paid $8,500 to RSM for non-audit services, relating to tax return preparation assistance, during the year. The Directors
are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another person or firm on the
auditor's behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001.
The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed above do not compromise the external auditor's independence
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
-
all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the
auditor; and
none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics
for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing
the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as advocate for the
Company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.
-
There are no officers of the company who are former partners of RSM.
Annual General Meeting
All resolutions at the Company’s 2021 Annual General Meeting on 26 November 2021 were passed.

Corporate Governance
The Board is committed to achieving and demonstrating the highest standards of corporate governance. As such, Crater Gold Mining
Limited and its Controlled Entities (‘the Group’) have adopted a corporate governance framework and practices to ensure they meet
the interests of shareholders.
The Australian Securities Exchange Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations – 4th
edition (‘the ASX Principles’) are applicable for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2020. The Group has chosen to
publish its Corporate Governance Statement on its website rather than in this Annual Report.
The Corporate Governance Statement and governance policies and practices can be found in the corporate governance section of
the Company’s website at http://www.cratergold.com.au.
This report is made in accordance with a resolution of Directors, pursuant to section 298(2)(a) of the Corporations Act 2001.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Crater Gold Mining Limited (the “Company”) and its legal subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Group.
Details of the principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are set out below. These policies have
been consistently applied to all years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Crater Gold Mining Limited is a for profit public Company, limited by shares and domiciled in Australia.
The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of the Directors, on 30 September 2022. The
Directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements.
Basis of preparation
This general purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting
Interpretations, and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act
2001. These Financial Statements also comply with International Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board (IASB).
New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The Group has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian
Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for, where applicable, the revaluation of
available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, investment properties, certain
classes of property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to
exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement
or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 2.
Parent entity information
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the Group only. Supplementary
information about the parent entity is disclosed in Note 28.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Crater Gold Mining Limited
(‘Company' or 'Parent Entity') as at 30 June 2022 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Crater Gold Mining Limited
and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'Group'.
Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or
has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to
direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They
are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the Group are eliminated. Unrealised
losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies
of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without
the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the
book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent.
Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the Group. Losses incurred by the
Group are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results in a deficit balance.
Where the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling interest
in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The Group recognises the fair value of
the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.
Operating Segments
Operating segments are presented using the 'management approach', where the information presented is on the same basis as the
internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM'). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources
to operating segments and assessing their performance.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Foreign currency translation
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Crater Gold Mining Limited's functional and presentation
currency.
Foreign currency transactions
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at
financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting date.
The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average exchange rates, which
approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences are recognised in
other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity.
The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of.
Revenue recognition
Sale of gold and other metals
Sale of gold and other metals is recognised at the point of sale, which is where the customer has taken delivery of the goods, the
risks and rewards are transferred to the customer and there is a valid sales contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of sales
returns and trade discounts.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised
cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate
that exactly discounts future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial
asset.
Other revenue
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.
Income Tax
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable income
tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences,
unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets
are recovered, or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for:
• When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a
transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor
taxable profits; or
• When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing
of the reversal can be controlled, and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable
amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets
recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount
to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future
taxable profits available to recover the asset.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current
tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same
taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously.
Crater Gold Mining Limited (the 'Parent Entity') and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated
group under the tax consolidation regime. The head entity and each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group continue to account for
their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated group has applied the 'separate taxpayer within group' approach
in determining the appropriate amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group.
In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the head entity also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the
deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group.
Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable
from or payable to other entities in the tax consolidated group. The tax funding arrangement ensures that the intercompany charge
Crater Gold Mining Limited
29
Notes to the Financial Statements
equals the current tax liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group member, resulting in neither a contribution by the head
entity to the subsidiaries nor a distribution by the subsidiaries to the Parent Entity.
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the Group’s normal
operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting
period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months
after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the Group's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for
the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer
the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are
subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the statement of cash flows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents
also includes bank overdrafts, which are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method, less any allowances for expected credit losses.
The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance.
To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue.
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses.
Trade and other receivables are generally due for settlement within 120 days.
Investments and other financial assets
Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the initial
measurement, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. They are subsequently measured at either amortised
cost or fair value depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on both the business model within which such
assets are held and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset unless an accounting mismatch is being avoided.
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been
transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is no reasonable
expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, its carrying value is written off.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets not measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income are classified as financial assets
at fair value through profit or loss. Typically, such assets will be either: (i) held for trading, where they are acquired for the purpose
of selling in the short-term with an intention of making a profit, or a derivative; or (ii) designated as such upon initial recognition,
where permitted. Fair value movements are recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include equity investments which the Group intends to hold for
the foreseeable future and has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon initial recognition.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortised cost or
fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the Group’s assessment at
the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument’s credit risk has increased significantly since initial
recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain.
Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit loss
allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset’s lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a default event
that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit
risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset’s lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of expected
credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of probability weighted present value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of
the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.
For financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is recognised within other
comprehensive income. In all other cases, the loss allowance is recognised in profit or loss.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Property, plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure
that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of plant and equipment over their expected
useful lives as follows:
Plant and equipment
3-7 years
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the Group. Gains and
losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. Any revaluation surplus reserve relating to
the item disposed of is transferred directly to retained profits.
Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises
the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date
net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate
of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the
asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease
term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any
remeasurement of lease liabilities.
The consolidated entity has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with
terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.
Exploration and evaluation assets
From 1 July 2017, the Group revised its accounting policy to expense all costs incurred in respect to the treatment of exploration and
evaluation expenditure. Prior to 30 June 2017, the Group would capitalise all exploration and evaluation expenditure and recognise
this as an exploration and evaluation asset in the statement of financial position on the basis that exploration activities are continuing
in an area and activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable estimate of the existence or otherwise of economically
recoverable reserves. The Group has determined that it is now more appropriate to account for exploration and evaluation
expenditure as an expense in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. An independent valuation of the
exploration and evaluation assets was previously undertaken. The Group has determined it is best to hold the value of the assets at
the level of the valuation until such time that new information is available which would indicate a material change to the independent
valuation.
Impairment of non-financial assets
Non-financial assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its
recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-in-use is the present value
of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or cash-generating unit to
which the asset belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to form a cash-generating unit.
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year and which are
unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured
and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
Borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the statement of
financial position, net of transaction costs.
On the issue of the convertible notes the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent
non-convertible bond and this amount is carried as a non-current liability on the amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion
or redemption. The increase in the liability due to the passage of time is recognised and included in shareholders equity as a
convertible note reserve, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in subsequent
years. The corresponding interest on convertible notes is expensed to profit or loss.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of
the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate
cannot be readily determined, the consolidated entity's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments
less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under
residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any
anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period
in which they are incurred.
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is
a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term;
certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the
corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.
Finance costs
Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in the period
in which they are incurred.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable
the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount
recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date,
taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are
discounted using a current pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is
recognised as a finance cost.
Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be settled wholly
within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
Share based payments
Equity-settled and cash-settled share based compensation benefits are provided to Directors and employees.
Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, performance rights or options over shares, that are provided to employees in
exchange for the rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount
of cash is determined by reference to the share price.
The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using an
appropriate valuation model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price
at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the
term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the Group receives the services that entitle
the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions.
The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period.
The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number
of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period
is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods.
The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined using an appropriate valuation
model, taking into consideration the terms and conditions on which the award was granted. The cumulative charge to profit or loss
until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows:
• during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date multiplied by the
expired portion of the vesting period.
• from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the reporting
date.
All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid to settle the
liability.
Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market conditions are
considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied.
If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An additional
expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share based
compensation benefit as at the date of modification.
Crater Gold Mining Limited
32
Notes to the Financial Statements
If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the Group or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a
cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the Group or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any
remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited.
If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is
recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award is treated
as if they were a modification.
Fair value measurement
When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is
based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the
absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market.
Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they
act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use.
Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are
used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified, into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance
of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed at each reporting date and transfers between levels are
determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either not available
or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market knowledge and reputation. Where
there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis is undertaken, which includes
a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, where applicable, with external sources of data.
Issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the
proceeds.
Dividends
Dividends are recognised when declared during the financial year and no longer at the discretion of the Company.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Crater Gold Mining Limited, excluding any
costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the
financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after-
income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average
number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from
the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from,
or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are
recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have
not been early adopted by the Group for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2022. The Group's has not yet assessed the
impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
2
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets,
liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical
experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the
circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements,
estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below.
Exploration and evaluation costs
The Directors have conducted a review of the Group’s capitalised exploration expenditure to determine the existence of any
indicators of impairment. Based upon this review, the Directors have determined that no impairment exists.

Financial Risk Management
The Group’s major area of risk is managing liquidity and cash balances and embarking on fundraising activities in anticipation of
further projects. The activities expose the Group to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including interest rate risk and price risk),
credit risk and liquidity 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. The Group uses different methods to measure
different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate, and other risks,
ageing analysis for credit risk.
Risk management is carried out under policies set by the Managing Director and approved by the Board of Directors.
The Board provides principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as, interest rate risk, credit
risk and investment of excess liquidity.
a.
Market risk
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency
that is not the Group’s functional currency. The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from
currency exposures to the Papua New Guinea Kina. As the Group is still in the development, exploration and evaluation stages, it has
not needed to use forward contracts to manage foreign exchange risk. The Board will continue to monitor the Group’s foreign
currency exposures.
Interest rate risk
The Group’s exposure to interest-rate risk is summarised in the following table.
Price risk
The Group is exposed to both commodity price risk and revenue risk. The commodity prices impact the Group’s capacity to raise
additional funds and impact on future gold sales. Management actively monitors commodity prices and does not believe that the
current level in AUD terms warrants specific action.
b.
Credit risk
The credit risk on financial assets of the Group which have been recognised in the consolidated Statement of Financial Position is
generally the carrying value amount, net of any provisions for doubtful debts. Management scrutinises outstanding debtors on a
regular basis and no items are considered past due or impaired.
c.
Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the ability of the Group to raise
funds on capital markets. The Managing Director and the Board continue to monitor the Group’s financial position to ensure that it
has available funds to meet its ongoing commitments.

1 Freefire Technology Limited
The Company has secured short-term, interest bearing loans totalling $13,776,771 (2021: $10,520,721) from its major shareholder,
Freefire Technology Limited (“Freefire”).
• The loan funds are to be used by the Company principally for the purpose of developing the High Grade Zone at the Company’s
Crater Mountain, PNG project and for general working capital.
Interest on the Principal Sums is payable by the Company to Freefire at the rate of 8% (2021: 8%) per annum.
•
2 ICBC Loan Facility
In the prior year the Company had a loan facility of up to $800,000 from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (Asia) Limited
(“ICBC”). This loan was repaid in full in December 2021.
The Company has assessed the potential interest rate risk on floating interest rate assets and does not consider the risk to be material
to the Company.

Notes to the Financial Statements
e.
Fair value estimation
The fair value of assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. The
fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current
market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments.
The Group measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that considers and reflects the significance of the inputs used
in making the measurements:
Level 1
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as
prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).
Level 3
Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (significant unobservable inputs).
The determination of what constitutes ‘observable’ requires significant judgment by the Group. The Group considers observable
data to be that market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and
provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.
The carrying amounts of trade and other receivables and trade and other payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due
to their short-term nature.
f.
Sensitivity analysis
Foreign currency risk sensitivity analysis
The Group is exposed to fluctuations in the value of the Australian Dollar to the PNG Kina (PGK) and United States Dollar (USD). The
carrying amount of the consolidated entity's foreign currency denominated financial assets and financial liabilities at the reporting
date were as follows:

Notes to the Financial Statements
Going Concern
4
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. The Group has incurred a net loss after tax of $2,706,453 and had
cash outflows from operating activities of $1,373,075 for the year ended 30 June 2022. As at that date, the Group had net current
liabilities of $17,915,798 and net liabilities of $16,652,552.
Whilst the above conditions indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt over the Group’s ability to continue as
a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at
the amounts stated in the financial report, the Directors believe that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will be
able to continue as a going concern, after consideration of the following factors:
a) The Company announced on 15 March 2022 that it had executed a new loan agreement for $2,000,000, the funding being
provided by way of an unsecured loan facility from the Company’s major shareholder, Freefire Technology Ltd. As at the date
of this report the undrawn balance is $1,181,000;
b)
c)
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, the Group has plans to raise further working capital through the issue of equity
during the financial year end 30 June 2023;
Freefire Technology Limited and key management personnel have provided an undertaking to not seek repayment of amounts
owed to them (refer to note 17 and note 18) for a period of at least 12 months from the date of this report; and
d) The Directors of the Company expect that major shareholders of the Group will support fundraising activities and reasonably
believe the Company will continue to receive financial support from Freefire Technology Limited, and the remaining debt owed
will not be called back for a period of at least 12 months from the date of this report.
On this basis, the Directors are of the opinion that the financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis and that the
Group will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due and payable.
Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities other
than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount of liabilities
that might result should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.

Segment information is presented using a “management approach”, that is segment information is provided on the same basis as
information used for internal reporting purposes by the chief executive and the Board. In identifying its operating segments,
management generally follows the Group's project activities. Each of these activities is managed separately.
The Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”) review EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation). The
accounting policies adopted for internal reporting to the CODM are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements.
Description of segments
Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief operating decision makers with respect to
operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in the annual
financial statements of the Group.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Segment Assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that received the majority of the economic
value form the asset. In most instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical condition.
Segment Liabilities
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is a direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the
segment. Borrowings are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include
trade and other payables and certain direct borrowings.
Croydon
This project consists of two sub-projects in far North West Queensland, the Croydon Polymetallic Project and the Croydon Gold
Project.

Non-Current Assets - Exploration and Evaluation
Opening net book value
Expenditure capitalised
Exploration costs impaired
Effect of movement in exchange rates
Closing net book value
The ultimate recoupment of costs carried forward for exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the successful
development and commercial exploitation or sale of the respective areas.
Some uncertainty exists as to the Group’s tenure at Crater Mountain. In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of
Mineral Resources an indication of impairment may exist if the right to explore in the specific area has expired during the period
and is not expected to be renewed. The Group has been engaged in discussions with the Papua New Guinea Government and has
made a renewal licence submission for EL 1115 and ML 510. To date, the Group has received no formal correspondence or
notification from the Government of Papua New Guinea. As a result of this uncertainty, the Directors resolved in the prior year to
fully impair $7,383,934 expenditure capitalised in relation to the Crater Mountain exploration and evaluation asset until such time
that the licences are officially renewed by the Papua New Guinea Government. The balance of exploration and evaluation at 30
June 2022 included $nil (2021: $nil) in relation to these exploration licences held in Papua New Guinea.

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in proportion to the
number of shares and the amounts paid on those shares held. The fully paid ordinary share have no par value and the Company does
not have a limited amount of authorised capital.
On a show of hands every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote and upon a poll each share shall

Capital risk management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can provide returns
for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital
to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
The Group would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or Company is value adding relative to the current
Company's share price at the time of the investment. The Group is not actively pursuing additional investments in the short term as
it continues to integrate and grow its existing businesses in order to maximise synergies.
The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2021 Annual Report.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Post Reporting Date Events
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is ongoing. Operations at the Crater Mountain in Papua New Guinea were suspended during
prior years, as announced on 25 March 2020. The situation is continually developing and is dependent on measures imposed by the
Australian and Papua New Guinean Governments, such as maintaining social distancing requirements, quarantine, travel restrictions
and any economic stimulus that may be provided.
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2022 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the Group's
operations, the results of those operations, or the Group's state of affairs in future financial years.
31
Contingent Liabilities
The Group's tenure at Crater Mountain is subject to a pending licence renewal submission made to the Papua New Guinea
Government. There is significant uncertainty as to whether future liabilities will arise in respect to potential closure and rehabilitation
costs in an event the licence renewal is denied. At this time the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient
reliability.
The Group does not have any other contingent liabilities (2021: nil).

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF
CRATER GOLD MINING LIMITED
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Crater Gold Mining Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group),
which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2022, the consolidated statement
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the
consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a
summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001,
including:
(i)
Giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2022 and of its financial
performance for the year then ended; and
(ii)
Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those
standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of
our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the
Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial
report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to
the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's
report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 4 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss after
tax of $2,706,453 and had cash outflows from operating activities of $1,373,075 for the year ended 30 June
2022. As at that date, the Group had net current liabilities of $17,915,798 and net liabilities of $16,652,552.
These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 4, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that
may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in
respect of this matter.

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.
In addition to the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section, we have
determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
Key Audit Matter
Exploration and evaluation
Refer to Note 13 in the financial statements
The Group has capitalised exploration and
evaluation expenditure with a carrying value of
$987,819 as at 30 June 2022.
We considered this to be a key audit matter due to
the significant management judgments involved in
assessing the carrying value of the asset including:
the basis on which
Determination of whether the expenditure can
be associated with finding specific mineral
resources, and
that
expenditure is allocated to an area of interest;
Determination of whether exploration activities
have progressed to the stage at which the
existence of an economically
recoverable
mineral reserve may be assessed; and
Assessing whether any indicators of impairment
are present, and if so, judgments applied to
determine and quantify any impairment loss.
How our audit addressed this matter
Our audit procedures included:
Assessing the Group’s accounting policy for
compliance with Australian Accounting Standards;
Assessing whether the Group’s right to tenure of
each relevant area of interest is current;
Critically assessing and evaluating management’s
assessment of whether any impairment indicators
were present at the reporting date;
Reviewing and enquiring with management the
basis on which they have determined that the
exploration and evaluation of mineral resources
has not yet reached the stage which permits a
the existence or
reasonable assessment of
otherwise of economically recoverable reserves;
and
Enquiring with management and reading budgets
and other documentation as evidence that active
and significant operations in, or relation to, the
area of interest will be continued in the future.
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included
in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2022, but does not include the financial report and the
auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair
view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal
control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true
and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as
a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic
alternative but to do so.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and
Assurance Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf. This
description forms part of our auditor's report.
