DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

Principal activities  

The principal activity of the entities within the Group during the year was the exploration for natural resources. There have 
been no other significant changes in the nature of those activities during the period. 

Review of operations  

The  Company’s  main  focus  was  building  its  cash  position  and  strengthening  its  balance  sheet  and  in  the  process 
increasing its shareholder base as new shareholders came in to support the future growth of the business. 

Resource  Star  successfully  carried  out  a  one  for  one  non-renounceable  Entitlement  Offer  at  $0.004  per  Share  to  raise 
$624,000 before costs during the quarter. 

The  Company  held  $460,485  in  cash  as  at  30  June  2014,  compared  to  $13,240  at  30  June  2013.    Fund  raising  for  the 
twelve months to 30 June 2014 was $641,000 before costs.  The Company has cash resources and liquidity for the near 
term but as it looks forward is still reliant on the ongoing support of significant shareholders and directors. 

The year ended June 2014 was challenging for the Company with limited funding opportunities and with the decision not to 
pursue the proposed new oil project on the agreed terms, the focus was on disciplined, restraint and cost cutting measures 
pending identification of a suitable transaction. 

During the twelve (12) month period to 30 June 2014 the Company completed the following:  

Ilomba Hill Rare Earth Project – Malawi 

No work has been undertaken; other than care and maintenance on EPL0264/08.    

Spinifex Uranium Project 

The  Spinifex  project  continues  to  be  identified  as  the  near-term  priority  for  Resource  Star  and  the  Company  is  currently 
reviewing the minimum expenditure condition of $70,000 by October 2014. 

The reports and applications have been submitted to the Department of Mines for an extension of term. 

Northern Territory Tenements 

Work completed on the Northern Territory tenements were of a developmental nature, as opposed to exploratory.  On this 
basis  there  are  no  exploration  activities  to  report  during  in  relation  to  the  Northern  Territory  tenements  during  the  June 
2014 quarter. 

All tenements in the Northern Territory are applications only. 

The  Company  has  until  31  October  2014  to  re-apply  to  the  Northern  Land  Council  for  the  granting  of  ELA25884  and 
ELA271749 at Edith River.  There was no exploration expenditure on ELA25884 and ELA271749 during the quarter. 

The Application For Consent Pursuant to Section 41(2(b) and in accordance with Section 41(5) and 41(6) of the Aboriginal 
Land Rights in respect to Mt Celica Project ELA24414 is still being reviewed by the Northern Land Council. 

Operating results for the year 

The statement of comprehensive income shows a net loss attributable to members of $614,347 (2013: loss of $3,459,124). 

Significant changes in state of affairs  

On 26 July 2013, the Company announced finalisation of the Spinifex Uranium Project Acquisition in accordance with the 
Agreement for Sale of Mining Assets. 

On 2 August 2013, the Company announced that it had entered into a binding terms sheet to acquire a 50% shareholding 
in D-Bar Leasing Inc. which holds a 100% working interest in 8 oil producing lease groups, 96 wells covering approximately 
2,732 acres located in Abilene, Texas, USA.  

On 12 August 2013, the Company announced the lapse of 3,000,000 Unlisted Options previously issued to the Managing 
Director due to the significant price differential between the exercise and share price. 

On  5  September  2013,  the  Company  announced  the  issue  of  110,000  Unsecured  Convertible  Note  and  the  subsequent 
conversion to 800,000 Fully Paid Ordinary Shares on 13 September 2013 in accordance with the terms and conditions of 
the Unsecured Convertible Note Deed.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

On  18  December  2013,  the  Company  announced  the  appointment  of  Mr  G  Karantzias  as  non-executive  director.  At  the 
same time Mr C Burrell stepped down as a director. 

On  4  February  2014,  Resource  Star  announced  the  completion  and  allotment  of  20,026,912  fully  paid  Ordinary  Shares 
following the receipt of a short term funding application form. Following the allotment, the Ordinary Shares are now a part 
of the class of quoted securities.  

On  28  May  2014,  the  Company  announced  the  completion  of  the  non-renounceable  entitlement  offer  to  raise  up  to 
$624,000 (before costs) which opened on 8 April 2014 and closed on 19 May 2014.  

Significant events after the reporting date  

On  2  July  2014,  Mr  C  Guy  resigned  as  a  Non-executive  director  to  the  Company.  Mr  R  Parker  was  appointed  as  Non-
executive director. 

On  1  August  2014,  Resource  Star  announced  that  it  has  executed  a  binding  terms sheet  pursuant  to  which  it  has  been 
granted an exclusive Option to conduct due diligence on Western Australian based cloud services provider Cloud Lands for 
the purpose of determining whether to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Cloud Lands. Due diligence continues up to 
the date of this report. 

On 1 August 2014, Mr M Walker was appointed as Non-executive director to the Company. 

On 12 September 2014, Mr S Cheema was appointed as Company Secretary with Ms Eryn Kestel subsequently resigning 
as Company Secretary. 

On 19  September, Resource  Star raised  $140,000 before  costs  through  issue  of 35,000,000 shares  under its placement 
capacity which was approved at the 16 September General Meeting of Shareholders.     

Other than the above, there has not been any matter or circumstance that has arisen after the end of the reporting period 
that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the 
state of affairs of the Group in future financial periods. 

Likely developments and future results  

The  management  team  and  Board  of  Directors  (“the  Board”)  of  the  Company  are  continuing  to  review  opportunities 
available to the Company and have secured an exclusive Option to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Australian cloud 
computing service and infrastructure provider Cloud Lands Digital Fortress Pty Ltd. Due diligence continues up to the date 
of this report. 

Any additional information has not been provided since the Directors believe that there may be an unreasonable prejudice 
to the Company. 

Environmental regulation and performance 

The  Company’s  operations  are  subject  to  environmental  regulations  under  Commonwealth  and  State  legislation  in 
Australia  and  Malawi.    The  Board  believes  that  the  Company  has  adequate  systems  in  place  for  the  management  of  its 
environmental  requirements  and  is  not  aware  of  any  breach  of  those  environmental  requirements  as  they  apply  to  the 
Group. 

Indemnification and insurance of officers and auditors  

During the year, the Company paid a premium in respect of a contract insuring the directors of the Company (as named 
above),  the  company  secretary  and  all  executive  officers  of  the  Company  and  of  any  related  body  corporate  against  a 
liability  incurred  as  a  director,  secretary  or  executive  officer  to  the  extent  permitted  by  the  Corporations  Act  2001.    The 
contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium. 
The Company has not otherwise, during or since the period, except to the extent permitted by law, indemnified or agreed to 
indemnify  an  officer  or  auditor  of  the  Company  or  of  any  related  body  corporate  against  a  liability  incurred  as  such  an 
officer or auditor. 

Proceedings on behalf of the Company 

No person has applied for leave of Court to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company or 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 any part of those 
proceedings. 

The Company was not a party to any such proceedings during the year.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

Remuneration report (audited)  

This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for key management personnel of the Company.  

The following persons acted as directors during or since the end of the financial year: 

Mr A Bell 

Mr R Parker 

Mr M Walker 

Director (non-executive) – appointed 6 August 2007 

Director (non-executive) – appointed 2 July 2014 

Director (non-executive) – appointed 1 August 2014 

Mr G Karantzias   

Director (non-executive) – appointed 18 December 2013 

Mr C Burrell 

Mr C Guy 

Director (executive) – appointed 9 April 2013, resigned 18 December 2013 

Director (non-executive) – appointed 9 April 2013, resigned 2 July 2014 

The  term  ‘senior  management’  is  used  in  this  remuneration  report  to  refer  to  Mr  M  Walker,  Mr  R  Parker  and  Mr  G 
Karantzias. 

The Board believes that the remuneration policy is appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best senior 
management to run and manage the Group. 

Remuneration philosophy 

The performance of the Group depends upon the quality of the directors and senior management.  The philosophy of the 
Group in determining remuneration levels is to: 

-  set competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high calibre employees; 

-  ensure that there is transparency in setting of corporate arrangements;  

- 

link executive rewards to shareholders’ value creation; and 

-  establish appropriate, demanding performance hurdles for variable executive remuneration.  Incentives are only paid 

once pre-determined KPI’s have been met. 

The Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the 
directors and senior management. 
The  Board  of  Directors  assesses  the  appropriateness  of  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration  of  directors  and  senior 
executives on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with an overall objective of ensuring 
maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board and executive team. 

Remuneration structure 

In  accordance  with  best  practice  Corporate  Governance,  the  structure  of  non-executive  director  and  executive 
remuneration is separate and distinct. 

Non-executive director remuneration 

The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain 
directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued) 

Remuneration report (audited) (continued) 

The ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to 
time by a general meeting. The latest determination was at the Annual General Meeting held on 28 February 2007 when 
shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration of $210,000 per year. 

The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned 
amongst  directors  is  reviewed  annually.    The  Board  considers  advice  from  external  advisors  as  well  as  the  fees  paid  to 
non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process.  No external advice was 
received during the year. 

Each director receives a fee for being a director of the Company.  

Senior Management and Executives 

Remuneration  consists  of  fixed  remuneration  and  variable  remuneration  (comprising  short-term  and  long-term  incentive 
schemes). 

Fixed remuneration 

Fixed  remuneration  is  reviewed  annually  by  the  Board.  The  process  consists  of  a  review  of  relevant  comparative 
remuneration in the market and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices. The Board has 
access to external independent advice, where necessary. No such advice was required during the year. 

Variable remuneration 

The  objective  of  the  short  term  incentive  program  is  to  link  the  achievement  of  the  Group's  operational  targets  with  the 
remuneration  received  by  the  executives  charged  with  meeting  those  targets.  The  total  potential  short  term  incentive 
available is set at a level so as to provide sufficient incentive to the senior manager to achieve the operational targets and 
such that the cost to the Group is reasonable in the circumstances. 

Employment contracts 

Executives 

There are no executive employment contracts as at the date of this report. 

Performance of shareholders’ wealth 

In considering the Group’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Board has regard to the following indices 
in respect of the current financial year and the previous four financial years: 

As at 30 June

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT  

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 

The Board of Directors of Resource Star Limited is responsible for establishing the corporate governance framework of the 
Group.  The Board guides and monitors the business and affairs of the Group on behalf of the shareholders by whom they 
are elected and to whom they are accountable. 

To ensure that the Board is well equipped to discharge its responsibilities, it has established guidelines and accountability 
as the basis for the administration of corporate governance.   

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE DISCLOSURES 

The  Board  and  management  are  committed  to  corporate  governance  and  to  the  extent  that  they  are  applicable  to  the 
Group  have  followed  the  Australian  Securities  Exchange  Corporate  Governance  Council  (CGC)  published  guidelines  as 
well as its own corporate governance principles and recommendations. 

In summary, Resource Star departs from the CGC’s recommendation in six (6) key areas:  

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

Recommendation 2.1 
Duriing  the  year  the  majority  of  the  Board  were  not  independent.    Only  one  (1)  of  the  three  (3)  Directors  is 
considered  independent;  as  one  Director  is  the  Executive  Director  and  the  other  Director  is  a  Director  of  a 
Company which is a Substantial Shareholder of Resource Star Limited. 

Recommendation 2.2 
The Chair is not deemed to be independent. The current Chair is an Officer of a Company which is a Substantial 
Shareholder of Resource Star Limited.  

Recommendation 2.4 
Resource Star Limited does not have a separate Nomination Committee.  The Company is of a size and a level of 
current  activity  that  enables  the  full  Board  to  be  able  to  deal  with  the  matters  normally  attended  to  by  the 
Nomination Committee.  

Remuneration  levels  are  set  by  the  Company  in  accordance  with  industry  standards  to  attract  suitable  qualified 
and experienced Directors and senior executives. 

Recommendation 3.3 
Due  to  the  current  nature  and  scale  of  Resource  Star  Limited’s  activities,  the  Company  is  yet  to  establish 
measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity to report against.   

Recommendation 4.2 
Resource Star Limited has established  an Audit Committee which is comprised of the directors the same as the 
Board.  Whilst this is  appropriate for a company the size  of Resource Star Limited  and  with the current level  of 
activity  it  does  mean  that  a  number  of  the  recommendations  are  not  met  –  does  not  consist  of  non-executive 
directors; does not consist of a majority of independent directors and is not chaired by an independent chair. No 
meeting was held during the year.  

The  Company  will  address  this  issue  in  the  forthcoming  year  by  appointing  an  additional  member  to  the 
Committee. 

Recommendation 8.1 
Resource Star Limited currently does not have a separate Remuneration Committee. The Company is of  a size 
and a level of current activity that enables the full Board to be able to attend to the matters normally attended to by 
the Remuneration Committee.  

The table below summarises Resource Star Limited’s compliance with the CGC’s recommendations.

remuneration of non executive directors will not  be  more than the  aggregate fixed sum by  a 
general meeting of shareholders. 

The  Board  is  responsible  for  determining  the  remuneration  of  any  director  or  senior 
executive, without the participation of the affected director. 

8.4 Companies should provide the information indicated in Guide to reporting on Principle 8.

STRUCTURE OF THE BOARD 

Independence 

As outlined in ASX Principle 2, Directors of Resource Star are expected to contribute independent views. 

Directors  are  considered  to  be  independent  when  they  are  independent  of  management  and  free  from  any  business  or 
other  relationship  that  could  materially  interfere  with  or  could  reasonably  be  perceived  to  materially  interfere  with  the 
exercise of their unfettered and independent judgment. 

An independent Director is a non-executive director (i.e. is not a member of management) and: 
• 

is not a substantial shareholder of the Company or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly with, a substantial 
shareholder of the Company; 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

within the last three years has not been employed in an executive capacity by the Company or its subsidiaries, or 
been a Director after ceasing to hold any such employment; 

is  not  a  principal  or  employee  of  a  professional  adviser  to  the  Company  or  its  subsidiaries  whose  billings  are  a 
material amount of the adviser's total revenue;  

is not a significant supplier or customer of the Company or its subsidiaries, or an officer of or otherwise associated 
directly or indirectly with a significant supplier or customer. A significant supplier is defined as one whose revenues 
from  the  Company  are  a  material  amount  of  the  supplier's  total  revenue.  A  significant  customer  is  one  whose 
amounts payable to the Company are a material amount of the customer's total operating costs; 

has no material contractual relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries other than as a Director of the 
Company; 

has not served on the Board for a period which could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere 
with the Director's ability to act in the best interests of the Company; 

is free from any interest and any business or other relationship which could, or could reasonably be  perceived 
to, materially interfere with the Director's ability to act in the best interests of the Company. 

Mr  Bell  (substantial  shareholder)  and  Mr  Walker  (substantial  shareholder)  are  not  considered  to  be  independent.    Even 
though  only  half  of  the  current  Board  is  independent,  the  Board  believes  that  the  current  composition  of  the  Board  is 
adequate for the  current size and activities and includes  an appropriate  mix  of  skills and expertise, relevant to Resource 
Star’s activities. 

When  a  Board  vacancy  exists,  through  whatever  cause,  or where  it  is  considered  that  the  Board  would  benefit  from  the 
service of a new Director with particular skills, in the absence of a Remuneration and Nomination Committee, the Board will 
consider a candidate or panel of candidates with the appropriate expertise. 

The  Board  then  appoints  the  most  suitable  candidate  who  must  stand  for  election  at  the  next  general  meeting  of 
shareholders.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONTINUED) 

Notification 

Resource  Star  has  reviewed  and  considered  the  positions  of  each  of  the  four  (4)  Directors  in  office  at  the  date  of  this 
Annual Report and consider that only two (2) of the four (4) Directors are independent.  Mr Karantzias and Mr Parker are 
independent Directors in accordance with the definition of independence above.  

This composition is not unusual for a company the size of Resource Star Limited and undertaking the level of activity that it 
currently does. 

Chair and Non-Executive Director 

The roles of the Chair and the Non-executive Directors are not to be exercised by the same individual. 

The  Chair  is  responsible  for  leading  the  Board,  ensuring  that  Board  activities  are  organised,  efficiently  conducted  and 
ensuring that the Directors are properly briefed for meetings. 

The Non-executive Directors are collectively responsible for the day to day activities of the Group.  

The  Chair must be  appropriately  qualified  and  have the required  experience to  discharge the  responsibilities for leading, 
managing  and  delegating  and  in  the  absence  of  a  Nomination  Committee  the  Board  from  amongst  themselves  have 
nominated the Director that they believe can fulfil the role of Chair. 

There  are  procedures  in  place,  agreed  by  the  Board,  to  enable  the  Directors  in  furtherance  of  their  duties  to  seek 
independent professional advice at the Company’s expense. 

Board Evaluation Process 

In the  absence of Nomination and Remuneration Committees, the Resource Star Board reviews its performance and the 
performance of individual Directors including the Managing/Executive Director. 

External  consultants  are  engaged  where  it  is  seen  to  be  beneficial  to  the  Company  when  undertaking  the  performance 
evaluation process. 

Performance evaluations in respect of the current Board have not yet been completed. 

In relation to the term of office, the Constitution specifies that one third of all directors must retire from office annually and 
are eligible for re-election at the Company’s Annual General Meeting. 

Remuneration and Nomination Committee 

The Board has not established a formal Remuneration or Nomination Committee.  

The  full  Board  attends  to  the  matters  normally  attended  to  by  a  Remuneration  or  Nomination  Committee.  The  Board 
acknowledges that when the size and  nature of the Company warrants a Remuneration and Nomination  Committee then 
the Committee will operate under a Charter approved by the Board.   

The  Board  is  responsible  for  determining  and  reviewing  compensation  arrangements  for  the  Directors  themselves  with 
remuneration levels being set in accordance with industry standards to attract suitably qualified and experienced Directors 
and senior executives.  

As at the date of this Report there is no scheme to provide retirement benefits to non executive directors. 

Details  of  the  Company’s  remuneration  philosophy  and  framework  and  the  remuneration  received  by  directors  and 
executives are provided in the Directors’ Report under the heading Remuneration Report.

Code of Conduct 

The Board acknowledges the need for the highest standards of corporate governance and ethical conduct by all directors 
and senior executives.  In light of this, Resource Star Limited has developed a Code of Conduct which has the full backing 
of the Board and is to be followed by the directors, senior executives and employees. 

This policy is regularly reviewed and updated as necessary. 

Diversity Policy 

Resource Star Limited is committed to workplace diversity and recognises the benefits arising from having a broader pool 
of  quality  employees,  improving  employee  retention  rates  and  tapping  into  all  available  talent.    Diversity  includes  such 
areas as gender, age and background. 

Resource Star Limited developed and approved a Diversity Policy in 2011 which has a focus of improving gender balance 
and working towards increasing the representation of women in management roles.  The Resource Star Limited Diversity 
Policy aims to achieve: 

• 

• 

developing a culture which takes into account domestic responsibilities of employees; 

as part of the annual remuneration review, assessing the gender pay parity across the business and implementing 
action plans to address any areas of concern; 

•  maintaining a workplace culture that supports difference and that enables each staff member to fully contribute to 

the best of their ability;  

• 

• 

• 

• 

identifying what is getting in the way of diversity success and taking action to address the issues; 

improved employment and career development opportunities for women; 

an environment that encourages the development of necessary skills and experience for leadership roles; and 

a workplace that is free for all forms of discrimination and harassment 

The proportion of women in Resource Star Limited is as follows:

Notification 

ASX Principle 3 recommends that companies  should  disclose  in  each annual report measurable  objectives  for  achieving 
gender diversity set by the Board in accordance with the Diversity Policy and progress towards achieving them. 

Due to the  current nature  and scale of  Resource Star’s  activities,  the  Board is yet to establish  measurable objectives  for 
achieving gender diversity to report against.  No measurable objectives will be established until the number of employees 
and level of activities of the Company have increased to sufficient levels to enable meaningful and achievable objectives to 
be developed.

Securities Trading 

Resource Star Limited has adopted a Securities Dealing Policy which is derived largely from the Corporations Act 2001 
requirements that applies to all directors, senior executives and employees. 

Under  this  Policy  and  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  it  is  illegal  for  directors,  senior  executives  and  employees  who  have 
access to price sensitive information which has not been published or is generally not available to: 

(a)  apply  for,  acquire,  dispose  of  or  enter  into  an  agreement  to  apply  for,  acquire  or  dispose  of  Resource  Star 

Securities; 

(b)  procure  another  person  to  apply  for,  acquire,  dispose  of  or  enter  into  an  agreement  to  apply  for,  acquire  or 

dispose of Resource Star Securities; or 

(c)  directly  or  indirectly  communicate  the  Material  Non-Public  Information  to  another  person  when  the  Insider 

knows, or ought reasonably to know, that the other person would or would be likely to: 
(i) 

apply  for, acquire,  dispose of  or enter into an agreement  to apply  for,  acquire or dispose of Resource 
Star Securities; or 
procure another person to apply for, acquire, dispose of or enter into an agreement to apply for, acquire 
or dispose of Resource Star Securities. 

(ii) 

Corporate Reporting 

In accordance with ASX Principle 7, a Non-Executive Director and the Chair have made the following certifications to the 
Board: 

•  That the Company’s financial reports are complete and present a true and fair view, in all material respects, of 

the financial positions and operational results of Resource Star Limited; and 

•  The financial reports are founded in a sound system of internal control and risk management which implements 
the  policies  adopted  by  the  Board  and  the  Company’s  risk  management  and  internal  controls  are  operating 
efficiently in all material respects. 

Audit and Risk Management Committee 

The Board has established an Audit and Risk Management Committee comprising of the same members as the board of 
directors – Mr Bell (Chairman), Mr Guy, Mr Karantzias and Ms Kestel is the Secretary of the Committee. The committee did 
not meet during the year.   

Whilst this is appropriate for a company the size of Resource Star Limited and with the current level of activity it does mean 
that  a  number  of  the  recommendations  are  not  met  –  does  not  consist  of  non-executive  directors;  does  not  consist  of  a 
majority of independent directors and is not chaired by an independent chair 

The Committee operates under Charter approved by the Board which is available from the Company’s webpage.  It is the 
Committee’s responsibility to ensure that an effective internal control framework exists within the Company.  The internal 
controls  that  the  Company  have  in  place  include  the  safeguarding  of  assets,  the  maintenance  of  proper  accounting 
records,  identifying  and  managing  risk  and  attesting  to  the  reliability  of  financial  information  as  well  as  non-financial 
considerations  such  as  the  benchmarking  of  key  performance  indicators.    The  Committee  also  provides  the  Board  with 
assurance of the reliability of the financial information included in the Interim Financial and Annual Reports. The Audit and 
Risk Management Committee is also responsible for:  

• 

Liaising with the external auditors on accounting policy and disclosure; 

•  Reviewing  and  meeting  with  the  external  auditors  to  review  the  Interim  Financial  and  Annual  Reports  before 

submission to the Board; and 

•  Overseeing risk management. 

In accordance with ASX Principle 7, the Board has established a Risk Management policy, which is designed to safeguard 
the Group’s assets and to ensure the integrity of the financial reporting. 

The  Company  has  as  a  standing  Agenda  item  Risk Management  and  on  a  regular  basis  the  Board  will  assess  the  Risk 
Management matrix and amend accordingly. 

The  Company’s  Policy  is  to  appoint  external  auditors  who  clearly  demonstrate  independence.  The  performance  of  the 
external auditor is reviewed annually by the Board but when the Committee is established it will be the responsibility of the 
Committee to complete this review. The auditors have a policy of rotating the audit partner at least every 5 years.

External Auditors 

Resource  Star  Limited’s  current  external  auditors  are  HLB  Mann  Judd.    As  noted  in  the  Audit  and  Risk  Management 
Committee Charter, the performance and independence of HLB Mann Judd is reviewed by the Committee. 

HLB Mann Judd attests to their independence by providing a statement as to their independence; which has been included 
in the 2014 Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2014. 

Risk Management 

The Board recognises that the identification and management of risk, including calculated risk taking, is an essential part of 
creating long term shareholder value. 

The Executive Director reports directly to the Board on the Group’s key risks and is responsible for designing, maintaining, 
implementing and reporting on the adequacy of the risk management and internal control systems. 

The  Board  monitors  the  performance  of  the  risk  management  and  internal  control  systems  and  determines  the  extent  to 
which  it  believes  the  risks  are  being  managed  and  the  adequacy  and  comprehensiveness  of  risk  reporting  from 
management. 

The Board must satisfy itself, on a regular basis, that risk management and internal control systems for the Company have 
been fully developed and implemented. 

The Company has identified specific risk management areas being strategic, operational and compliance. The Board has 
reviewed risks faced by the Company on a regular basis due to the current finance position of the Company.  

A detailed risk identification matrix will be prepared by management. High and very high risk issues will be reported to the 
Board. The Board is responsible for ensuring the Company complies with its regulatory obligations.  

The Board and externally appointed CFO equivalent provide written assurance on an annual basis that to the best of their 
knowledge  and  belief,  the  declaration  provided  by  them  in  accordance  with  Section  295A  of  the  Corporations  Act  is 
founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control and that the system is operating effectively in relation 
to financial reporting risks. 

These assurances can only be reasonable rather than absolute due to factors such as the need for judgement and possible 
weaknesses in control procedures. 

Any material changes in the Company’s circumstances are released to the ASX and included on the Company’s website. 

Continuous Disclosure 

In accordance with ASX Principle 5, Resource Star Limited has established a Disclosure Policy. 

The Policy is committed to:  

•  Ensuring that shareholders have the opportunity to access externally available information issued by the 

Company; 

•  Providing full and timely information to the market about the Company’s activities; and 

•  Complying with the obligations contained in the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act 2001 relating to 

continuous disclosure. 

The  Chairman  and  the  Company  Secretary  have  been  nominated  as  the  people  responsible  for  communication  with  the 
ASX.    This  involves  complying  with  continuous  disclosure  requirements  outlined  in  ASX  Listing  Rules,  ensuring  that 
disclosure with the ASX is co-ordinated and being responsible for administering and implementing this Policy.

Shareholder Communication 

In accordance with ASX Principle 6, Resource Star Limited has established a communications strategy policy. 

The directors of Resource Star recognises the importance of forthright communication and in order to prosper and achieve 
growth, it must (among other things) earn the trust of employees, customers, suppliers, communities and shareholders by 
being forthright in its communications and consistently delivering on its commitments. 

The Board aims to ensure that the shareholders on  behalf of whom they  act are informed  of all information necessary in 
order  to  make  effective  decisions  about  Resource  Star  and  to  be  kept  informed  of  all  major  developments  affecting  the 
Company in a timely and effective manner.  Resource Star follows three main forms of information disclosure: 

•  Continuous  disclosure  -  which  is  its  core  disclosure  obligation  and  primary  method  of  informing  the  market  and 

shareholders; 

•  Periodic disclosure - in the form of full-year and half-year reporting; and 

•  Specific information disclosure - as and when required, of administrative and corporate details, usually in the form 

of ASX releases. 

Further it is a Corporations Act requirement that the auditor of Resource Star Limited attends the Annual General Meeting.  
This provides shareholders with the opportunity to  ask the auditor questions concerning the conduct  of the audit and the 
preparation and content of the Auditor Report as contained in the 2014 Annual Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014 

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

(a)  Basis of Preparation 

The  financial  report  is  a  general-purpose  financial  report,  which  has  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  the 
requirements  of  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and complies with other requirements of the law.   

The accounting policies detailed below have been consistently applied to all of the years presented unless otherwise 
stated.  The  financial  statements  are  for  the  consolidated  entity  consisting  of  Resource  Star  Limited  and  its 
subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “the Group”). 

Except  for  cash  flow  information,  the  financial  report  has  also  been  prepared  using  the  accrual  basis  and  on  a 
historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities, which have been measured at fair value. Cost is 
based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets.  

The  Company  is  a  for  profit  listed  public  company  incorporated  in  Australia.    The  Company’s  principal  activity  is 
mineral exploration. 

(b)  Adoption of new and revised standards  

Changes in accounting policies on initial application of Accounting Standards 

In  the  year  ended  30  June  2014,  the  Directors  have  reviewed  all  of  the  new  and  revised  Standards  and 
Interpretations  issued  by  the  AASB  that  are  relevant  to  the  Group’s  operations  and  effective  for  the  current  annual 
reporting period. 

Standards and Interpretations adopted with no effect on the financial statements: 

It has been determined by the Directors that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of any other new and revised 
Standards and Interpretations on the Group’s business and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting 
policies. 

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted: 

The  Directors  have  also  reviewed  all  new  Standards  and  Interpretations  that  have  been  issued  but  are  not  yet 
effective for the year ended  30 June  2014. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no 
impact,  material  or  otherwise,  of  the  new  and  revised  Standards  and  Interpretations  on  the  Group’s  business  and, 
therefore, no change necessary to Group accounting policies. 

(c)  Statement of Compliance  

The financial report was authorised for issue on the day of the Directors’ Report. 

The  financial  report  complies  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  (“AASB”).  Compliance  with  AASB  ensures  that 
the  financial  report,  comprising  the  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto,  complies  with  International  Financial 
Reporting Standards (IFRS).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014 

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(d)  Basis of consolidation 

These  general  purpose  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  all  subsidiaries  of 
Resource Star Limited (‘company’ or ‘parent entity’) as at 30 June 2014 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year 
then  ended.    Resource  Star  Limited  and  its  subsidiaries  are  referred  to  in  this  financial  report  as  the  group  or  the 
consolidated entity. 
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using 
consistent accounting policies. 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and expenses 
and profit and losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full.  

Subsidiaries  are  fully  consolidated  from  the  date  on  which  control  is  transferred  to  the  Group  and  cease  to  be 
consolidated from the date  on which control is transferred out of the Group. The parent controls an entity when it 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 over the entity.  

Business combinations have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. 

(e)  Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements 

The  application  of  accounting  policies  requires  the  use  of  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  about  carrying 
values  of  assets  and  liabilities  that  are  not  readily  apparent  from  other  sources.  The  estimates  and  associated 
assumptions  are  based  on  historical experience  and  other factors that  are  considered to  be relevant. Actual  results 
may differ from these estimates.  

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period 
in which the  estimate  is  revised if it affects only  that  period or in the period  of  the  revision  and future periods  if  the 
revision affects both current and future periods. 

Exploration and evaluation costs carried forward  

The recoverability of the carrying amount of exploration and evaluation costs carried forward has been reviewed by 
the directors.  The Group capitalises expenditure relating to exploration and evaluation where it is considered likely 
to be recoverable or where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the 
existence of reserves.  While there are certain  areas  of interest from which no reserves have been  extracted, the 
directors are of the continued belief that such expenditure should not be written off. 

Recovery of deferred tax assets  

Deferred tax assets are only recognised as deductible temporary differences when management considers that it is 
probable  that  sufficient  future  tax  profits  will  be  available  to  utilise  those  temporary  differences.    Significant 
management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based 
upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits over the next two years together with future tax planning 
strategies.  The  Group  has  been  incurring  losses  and  presently,  it  is  not  known  when  the  Group  will  earn  taxable 
income. As such, deferred taxes have not been recognised.  

(f)  Revenue Recognition 

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

(i) Interest income 

Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial 
asset, using the effective interest rate method.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014 

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(g)  Cash and Cash Equivalents 

Cash comprises cash at bank and on hand. Cash equivalents are 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.    Bank  overdrafts  are  shown  within  borrowings  in  current  liabilities  in  the 
consolidated statement of financial position.   
For  the purposes  of the consolidated  statement of  cash  flows, cash and cash equivalents consist  of cash and cash 
equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. 

(h)  Trade and other receivables 

Trade  receivables  are  measured  on  initial  recognition  at  fair  value  and  are  subsequently  measured  at  amortised 
cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment.  Trade receivables are generally due for 
settlement within periods ranging from 15 days to 30 days.  

Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written 
off by reducing the carrying amount directly.  An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that 
the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered 
by  the  Group  in  making  this  determination  include  known  significant  financial  difficulties  of  the  debtor,  review  of 
financial  information  and  significant  delinquency  in  making  contractual  payments  to  the  Group.  The  impairment 
allowance  is  set  equal  to  the  difference  between  the  carrying  amount  of  the  receivable  and  the  present  value  of 
estimated  future  cash  flows,  discounted  at  the  original  effective  interest  rate.  Where  receivables  are  short-term 
discounting is not applied in determining the allowance.  

The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss within other expenses. When a trade receivable for 
which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent  period, it is written off 
against  the  allowance  account.  Subsequent  recoveries  of  amounts  previously  written  off  are  credited  against  other 
expenses in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. 

(i)  Foreign Currency Translation 

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

Transactions  in  foreign  currencies  are  initially  recorded  in  the  functional  currency  by  applying  the  exchange  rates 
ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated 
at the rate of exchange ruling at the end of the reporting period. 
All exchange differences in the consolidated financial report are taken to profit or loss. 
Non-monetary  items  that  are  measured  in  terms  of  historical  cost  in  a  foreign  currency  are  translated  using  the 
exchange rate as at the date of the initial transaction. 
Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date 
when the fair value was determined. 

(j) 

Income tax 

The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on the current year’s taxable income (loss) based 
on  the  applicable  income  tax  rate  for  each  jurisdiction  adjusted  by  changes  in  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities 
attributable to temporary difference and to unused tax losses.   
The current income tax charge (benefit) is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at 
the  end  of  the  reporting  period  in  the  countries  where  the  Company’s  subsidiaries  operate  and  generate  taxable 
income.  Management  periodically  evaluates  positions  taken  in  tax  returns  with  respect  to  situations  in  which 
applicable  tax  regulation  is  subject  to  interpretation.  It  establishes  provisions  where  appropriate  on  the  basis  of 
amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. 

Current  tax  assets  and  liabilities  for  the  current  and  prior  periods  are  measured  at  the  amount  expected  to  be 
recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those 
that are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. 
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the end of the reporting period between the tax bases 
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

(j) 

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

Income tax (continued) 

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

Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at the end of the reporting period and are recognised to 
the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. 

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

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss. 

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

(k)  Other taxes 

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

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

• receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included. 

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

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

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

(l)  Property, Plant and Equipment 

Plant  and  equipment  are  stated  at  cost  less  accumulated  depreciation  and  any  accumulated  impairment  losses. 
Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts 
is incurred.

1. 

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(l)  Property, Plant and Equipment (continued) 

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows: 

Plant and equipment – over 1 to 7.5 years 

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

(i) Impairment 

The carrying values  of  plant and  equipment are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date, with  recoverable 
amount  being  estimated  when  events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  the  carrying  value  may  be 
impaired. 

The  recoverable  amount  of  plant  and  equipment  is  the  higher  of  fair  value  less  costs  to  sell  and  value  in  use.  In 
assessing  value  in  use,  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  are  discounted  to  their  present  value  using  a  pre-tax 
discount  rate  that  reflects  current  market  assessments  of  the  time  value  of  money  and  the  risks  specific  to  the 
asset. 

For  an  asset  that  does  not  generate  largely  independent  cash  inflows,  recoverable  amount  is  determined  for  the 
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs, unless the asset's value in use can be estimated to be close to its 
fair value. 

An  impairment  exists  when  the  carrying  value  of  an  asset  or  cash-generating  units  exceeds  its  estimated 
recoverable amount. The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount. 

For plant and equipment, impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.  

(ii) Derecognition and disposal 

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits 
are expected from its use or disposal. 

Any  gain  or  loss  arising  on  derecognition  of  the  asset  (calculated  as  the  difference  between  the  net  disposal 
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised. 

(m)  Impairment of assets 

The  Group  assesses  at  each  reporting  date  whether  there  is  an  indication  that  an  asset  may  be  impaired.  If  any 
such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of 
the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and 
its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are 
largely  independent  of  those  from  other  assets  or  groups  of  assets  and  the  asset's  value  in  use  cannot  be 
estimated  to  be  close  to  its  fair  value.  In  such  cases  the  asset  is  tested  for  impairment  as  part  of  the  cash-
generating  unit  to  which  it  belongs.  When  the  carrying  amount  of  an  asset  or  cash-generating  unit  exceeds  its 
recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable 
amount. 

In  assessing  value  in  use,  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  are  discounted  to  their  present  value  using  a  pre-tax 
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. 
Impairment losses relating  to continuing operations are recognised in those  expense categories consistent  with the 
nature of the impaired asset. 

An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised 
impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is 
estimated.  A  previously  recognised  impairment  loss  is reversed  only  if  there  has  been  a  change  in  the  estimates 
used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case 
the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the 
carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for 
the asset in prior years.

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(n)  Trade and other payables 

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

(o)  Borrowing Costs 

Non-derivative financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value net of directly attributable transaction costs. On 
subsequent  measurement,  non-derivative  financial  liabilities  are  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective 
interest method. 

Convertible notes 
The  company  has  issued  convertible  notes  that  can  be  converted  to  share  capital  at  the  option  of  the  holder.  The 
company  has  determined  the  conversion  option  is  a  derivative  liability  that  is  required  to  be  valued  at  fair  value. 
Rather  than  valuing  the  liability  component  of  the  convertible  note  at  amortised  cost  and  the  associated  derivative 
liability  at  fair  value  the  company  has  elected  to  value  the  combined  instrument  at  fair  value.  The  movement  in  fair 
value  of  the  convertible  note  is  recognised  in  the  profit  and  loss  as  finance  charge.  The  basis  of  the  fair  value 
calculations and the material terms and conditions of the convertible note are set out in Note 11. 

The best evidence of fair value of a financial instrument, at initial recognition, is the transaction price, unless the fair 
value  of  the  instrument  is  evidenced  by  comparison  with  other  observable  current  market  transactions  in  the  same 
instrument or based on valuation technique using variable only obtained from observable markets. 

The company has elected to fair value the convertible note using valuation models for which not all the inputs are from 
observable markets. The  convertible  note  was initially  recognised  at  the  transaction price which varied from  the  fair 
value obtained from the valuation model used. 

(p)  Leases 

Leases  are  classified  as  finance  leases  whenever  the  terms  of  the  lease  transfer  substantially  all  the  risks  and 
rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. 
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term, except where 
another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset 
are consumed. 

(q) 

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. 

(r)  Earnings per share 

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

Diluted earnings per share are calculated as net profit/(loss) attributable to members of the parent, 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  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. 

(s)  Share based payment transactions 

Equity settled transactions 

The Group provides benefits to  employees (including key management personnel) of the  Group in the form of share-
based  payments,  whereby  employees  render  services  in  exchange  for  shares  or  rights  over  shares  (“equity  settled 
transactions”).

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

The cost of these  equity-settled  transactions  with  employees  is  measured by  reference  to the fair value  of  the  equity 
instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined using a binomial model, further details of 
which are given in Note 15 and the Remuneration Report. The fair value of options issued as approved by the Directors 
and  shareholders  are  recognised  as  an  employee  benefit  expense  with  a  corresponding  increase  in  equity.    The  fair 
value is measured  at grant date and recognised over  the period  during  which the employees become  unconditionally 
entitled to the options. 

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using the binomial option pricing model that takes into account 
the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the non tradeable 
nature  of the  option,  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. The fair value of the options granted excludes the 
impact  of  any  non-market  vesting  conditions  (for  example  (profitability  and  sales  growth  targets).  Non-market  vesting 
conditions  are  included in assumptions about the number of options  that  are expected  to become exercisable.  At  the 
end  of  each  reporting  period,  the  Group  revises  its  estimate  of  the  number  of  options  that  are  expected  to  become 
exercisable. The employee benefit expense recognised each period takes into account the most recent estimate. 

(t)  Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

Exploration  and  evaluation  expenditures  in  relation  to  each  separate  area  of  interest  are  recognised  as  an 
exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where the following conditions are satisfied: 

(i)  the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; 

(ii) at least one of the following conditions is also met: 

(a)  the  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditures  are  expected  to  be  recouped  through  successful 

development and exploration of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or 

(b)  exploration  and  evaluation  activities  in  the  area  of  interest  have  not  at  the  reporting  date  reached  a 
stage  which  permits  a  reasonable  assessment  of  the  existence  or  otherwise  of  economically 
recoverable  reserves, and  active  and  significant operations  in,  or in relation  to, the area  of  interest is  
continuing. 

Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore, studies, 
exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of depreciation and amortised 
of  assets  used  in  exploration  and  evaluation  activities.  General  and  administrative  costs  are  only  included  in  the 
measurement  of  exploration  and  evaluation  costs  where  they  are  related  directly  to  operational  activities  in  a 
particular area of interest. 

Exchange  (swaps)  of  exploration  and  evaluation  assets  are  accounted  for  at  the  carrying  amounts  of  the  assets 
given up with no gain or loss recognised. 

Exploration  and  evaluation  assets  are  assessed  for  impairment  when  facts  and  circumstances  suggest  that  the 
carrying  amount  of  an  exploration  and  evaluation  asset  may  exceed  its  recoverable  amount.  The  recoverable 
amount of the exploration and evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which it has been allocated being 
no  larger  than  the  relevant  area  of  interest)  is  estimated  to  determine  the  extent  of  the  impairment  loss  (if  any). 
Where  an  impairment  loss  subsequently  reverses,  the  carrying  amount  of  the  asset  is  increased  to  the  revised 
estimate of  its recoverable amount, but  only  to the  extent  that the increased carrying amount does not  exceed the 
carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in previous 
years. 

Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the relevant 
exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance is then reclassified to development. 

An  ‘area of  interest’ is an  individual geological area  which  is  considered to  constitute  a favourable  environment for 
the presence of a mineral deposit or an oil or natural gas field, or has been proved to contain such a deposit or field.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014 

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 

(u)  Going concern 

In  the  year  ended  30  June  2014  the  Company  recorded  a  net  loss  of  $614,347  (2013:  $3,459,124)  and  a  net 
operating  cash  outflow  of  $160,782  (2013:$  289,493),  resulting  in  the  Group  having  a  net  liabilities  position  of 
$94,049 (2013: net liabilities of $274,093), despite the Group having a market capitalisation of approximately $0.936 
million as at 30 June 2014. 

On 28 May  2014,  the  Company  announced the completion  of the non-renounceable  entitlement  offer to raise up to 
$624,000  (before costs) which opened on  8  April  2014 and closed on  19 May  2014. All Shares available under  the 
Offer had been taken up through a combination of entitlement applications, shortfall applications and the Underwriting 
Agreement.  The  number  of  new  ordinary  shares  subscribed  by  Shareholders  was  28,736,050  or  18%  of  the  total 
available under the Offer. The remaining 127,263,950 Shares were available to the Underwriter. 

The  Directors  anticipate  in  order  to  meet  its  working  capital  requirements  and  progress  its  planned  operational 
expenditure  further  funding  will  be  required  within  the  next  twelve  (12)  months  and  having  prepared  a  cash  flow 
budget  of  the  Group’s  working  capital  requirements  for  the  next  12  months  to  September  2015  and  have  already 
commenced planning to access additional funding.  

The Company’s ability to raise funds is further evident when post 30 June 2014, the Company raised $140,000 from 
a  sophisticated  investor  through  the  issue  of  shares  under  its  15%  Placement  Capacity.  The  funds  were  used  for 
short  term  working  capital.  The  Placement  Capacity  of  the  Company  was  revised  at  the  General  Meeting  of 
Shareholders  on  16  September  2014  and  the  board  intends  finalise  the  issue  and  allotment  of  the  remaining 
placement capacity to raise a further $312,000 before costs.  

Based on the above factors, the Board has a reasonable degree of confidence in securing sufficient additional funding 
for at least the next 12 months to September 2015 and believe it would be able to negotiate with interested parties, 
regarding a number of funding options that includes further debt and capital raisings. Should the Group be unable to 
raise sufficient funds, it would consider selectively reducing administrative costs It is recognised that in the event that 
the Company is unable to secure additional funding, it is likely to result in the existence of a material uncertainty that 
may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the Group may be 
unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in 
the accounts.  

(v)  Parent entity information 

In  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  these  financial  statements  present  the  results  of  the  consolidated 
entity  only.  The  financial  information  for  the  Parent  Entity  is  disclosed  in  note  23  and  has  been  prepared  on  the 
same basis as the consolidated financial statements. 

(w)  Operating segments 

Operating segments are presented in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating 
decision  makers  (“CODM”).  The  CODM  is  responsible  for  the  allocation  of  resources  to  operating  segments  and 
assessing their performance, and has been identified as the Board Directors of the Company.

The amounts of tax losses available have not been recognised at the date of the report.  It is expected that a certain 
amount  of  tax  losses  would  be  deductible  against  future  taxable  income  on  the  condition  that  certain  criteria 
imposed by the tax legislation have been met.   

The DTA not brought to account will only be realised if: 

(a)  future assessable income is derived of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised; 

(b)  the conditions for deductibility imposed by tax legislation continue to be complied with; and 

(c) 

the Company and Group are able to meet the continuity of business and/or continuity of ownership tests.

(i) Red Rock Resources Plc (Red Rock) is a substantial shareholder of the Company and holds more than 20% of the 
issued capital. The amount owed to Red Rock by the Group at 30 June 2014 was $Nil (30 June 2013: $26,880). The 
borrowing is unsecured and non-interest bearing.  

(ii) The Convertible Notes have a Face value of $1.00 and a 12 month maturity date from the date of issue and are 
unsecured. The Notes were issued in October 2013 and are convertible into Fully Paid Ordinary Shares at $0.0125 
per Note. Interest is payable at the rate of 5.5% per annum.  

For  financial  reporting  purposes,  the  Company  has  had  to  determine  the  fair  value  of  the  convertible  note  and  the 
derivative liability at initial recognition and period end. The fair value of the convertible notes and derivative liability as 
at  30  June  2014  were  $47,098  and  $2,902  respectively  and  were  classified  as  category  3  instrument  for  fair  value 
purposes.  

Their fair value was estimated by discounting the future contractual cashflows at the current market interest rate that 
are available to the group for similar instruments without a conversion option. The discount rate used was 12% based 
on unobservable market input. Had a discount rate of 15% been used, their fair value would have been $45,870 and 
$4,130 respectively.  

There were no transfers between categories during the period.

Management controls the capital of the Group in order to provide the shareholders with adequate returns and ensure 
that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. 

The Group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets. 
There  are  no  externally  imposed  capital  requirements.  Management  effectively  manages  the  Group’s  capital  by 
assessing the Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in 
the market.  These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues. 

There  have  been  no changes in the strategy  adopted by management to  control the capital  of the Group since the 
prior year. Refer to note 16 for how the Group manages its liquidity risk.

16.  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES 

The  Board  is  responsible  for  monitoring  and  managing  the  Group’s  financial  risk  exposures  by  monitoring  the  Group’s 
financial risk management policies and exposures and approves financial transactions within the scope  of its authority.  It 
also reviews the internal controls relating to currency risk, financing risk and interest rate risk.  The overall risk management 
strategy seeks to assist the Group to meet its targets, while minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance. 

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, cash, convertible notes and financial liabilities 
from related parties. 

The main purpose of these financial instruments is to finance the Group’s operations.  The Group has other financial assets 
and liabilities such as trade receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations.  The main risks arising 
from  the  Group’s financial instruments are cash  flow interest  rate risk, liquidity risk, foreign  exchange risk and credit risk.  
The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below. 

Details  of  the  significant  accounting  policies  and  methods  adopted,  including  the  criteria  for  recognition,  the  basis  of 
measurement  and  the  basis  on  which  income  and  expenses  are  recognised,  in  respect  of  each  class  of  financial  asset, 
financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 1 to the financial statements. 

Interest rate risk 
The  Group’s  exposure  to  the  risk  of  changes  in  market  interest  rates  relates  primarily  to  the  Group’s  cash,  short-term 
deposits and short-term borrowings.  The short-term debt is a fixed rate debt. Since the Group does not have any long-term 
debt obligations, the Group’s exposure to this risk is nominal. 

Market risk 
The Group’s exposure to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices 
relates  primarily  to  accounts  payables.    The  objective  of  market  risk  management  is  to  manage  and  control  market  risk 
exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising return.

Credit risk 
Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counter parties that could 
lead to financial loss to the Group.  The Group’s policy is to trade only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. 

It is the Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms will be subject to credit verification procedures.  
Cash and cash equivalents are held with Authorised Deposit Institutions (ADI) or an institution which has a Standard and 
Poor's (Australia) Pty Ltd rating of ‘A-1+’ for terms of a year or less. 

In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts 
is not significant. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group.  Details with respect to credit risk 
of trade and other receivables are disclosed in note 6. 

Liquidity risk 
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting 
its obligations related to financial liabilities.  The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding 
and flexibility through the  use of available funding facilities and capital raising. The liquidity risk is currently managed by 
the Board by monitoring the Group’s cash flow and commitments on a monthly basis.  

Refer to Note 1(u) for additional details. 

The  tables  on  page  48  reflects  all  contractually  fixed  pay-offs  and  receivables  for  settlement,  repayments  and  interest 
resulting from recognised financial assets and liabilities. Cash flows for financial assets and liabilities without fixed amount 
or timing are based on the conditions existing at 30 June 2014 and 2013.

     Foreign currency risk management 

Exposure  to  foreign  exchange  risk  may  result  in  the  fair  value  of  cash  flows  of  a  financial  instrument  fluctuating  due  to 
movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the Group holds financial investments and/or financial liabilities 
which are other than the AUD currency of the Group. 

The  Group  undertakes  certain  transactions  denominated  in  foreign  currencies,  hence  exposures  to  exchange  rate 
fluctuations arise.  

The carrying amount of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting 
date is as follows:

The  following  table  details  the  Group’s  sensitivity  to  a  10%  increase  and  decrease  in  the  Australian  dollar  against  the 
relevant  foreign  currencies.  10%  is  the  sensitivity  rate  used  when  reporting  foreign  currency  risk  internally  to  key 
management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. The 
sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at 
the  period  end  for  a  10%  change  in  foreign  currency  rates.  The  sensitivity  analysis  includes  external  loans  where  the 
denomination of the loan is in a currency other than the currency of the lender or the borrower. A positive number indicates 
an increase in profit or loss and other equity where the Australian Dollar (AUD) strengthens against the respective currency. 
For a weakening of the Australian Dollar against the respective currency there would be an equal and opposite impact on 
the profit and other equity and the balances below would be negative.

16.   FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued) 

The  fair  value  of  financial  instruments  traded  in  active  markets  (such  as  publicly  traded  derivatives,  and  trading  and 
available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period.  The quoted market price 
used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price.  These instruments are included in level 1. 

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is 
determined using valuation techniques.  The Group uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on 
market  conditions  existing  at  the  end  of  each  reporting  period.   Quoted  market  prices  or  dealer  quotes  for  similar 
instruments  are  used  to  estimate  fair  value  for  long-term  debt  for  disclosure  purposes.   Other  techniques,  such  as 
estimated  discounted  cash  flows,  are  used  to  determine  fair  value  for  the  remaining  financial  instruments. In  the 
circumstances  where  a  valuation  technique  for  these  instruments  is  based  on  significant  unobservable  inputs,  such 
instruments are included in level 3. There were no significant transfers between levels 1 and 2 during the year. 

The following table presents the changes in level 3 instruments for the years ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2013.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Resource Star Limited 

Report on the Financial Report 

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Resource Star Limited (“Resource Star” or “ 
the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement 
of  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2014,  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,  notes  comprising  a  summary  of  significant 
accounting  policies  and  other explanatory  information, and the directors’ declaration for the Group. 
The  Group  comprises  the  Company  and  the  entities  it  controlled  at  the  year’s  end  or  from  time  to 
time during the financial year. 

Directors’ Responsibility 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 is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1 
(c),  the  directors  also  state,  in  accordance  with  Accounting  Standard  AASB  101:  Presentation  of 
Financial  Statements,  that  the  consolidated  financial  report  complies  with  International  Financial 
Reporting Standards. 

Auditor’s Responsibility  

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted 
our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply 
with relevant ethical  requirements  relating  to audit  engagements  and plan and perform  the  audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.  

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures 
in  the  financial  report.  The  procedures  selected  depend  on  the  auditor’s  judgement,  including  the 
assessment  of  the  risks  of  material  misstatement  of  the  financial  report,  whether  due  to  fraud  or 
error.  In  making  those  risk  assessments,  the  auditor  considers  internal  control  relevant  to  the 
Company’s  preparation  and  fair  presentation  of  the  financial  report  in  order  to  design  audit 
procedures  that  are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an 
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
An audit also includes evaluating the 
appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made 
by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.  

Our  audit  did  not  involve  an  analysis  of  the  prudence  of  business  decisions  made  by  directors  or 
management. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 
for our audit opinion. 

Independence

In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.   

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
Opinion  

In our opinion:  

(a) 

the  financial  report  of  Resource  Star  Limited  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  2014  and  of  its 

performance for the year ended on that date; and  

(b) 

(ii)  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001; and  
the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 
1 (c).  

Emphasis of Matter 

Without modifying  our opinion,  we draw  attention to  Note 1 (u) in  the financial  report, which  indicates that the 
Group incurred a loss of $614,347 (2013: loss of $3,459,124) and experienced a net operating cash outflow of 
$160,782 during the year (2013: outflow of $289,493).  Those conditions, along with other matters set forth in 
Note  1  (u),  indicate  the  existence  of  a  material  uncertainty  that  may  cast  significant  doubt  about  the  Group’s 
ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern  and  therefore,  the  Group  may  be  unable  to  realise  its  assets  and 
discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. 

Report on the Remuneration Report 

We  have  audited the Remuneration Report included in the  directors’ report for the  year ended  30  June  2014. 
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report 
in accordance with section 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 Resource Star Limited for the year  ended  30  June  2014  complies 
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
