OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Corporate
With effect from 17 November 2017, Mr Ian Middlemas was appointed a Non-Executive Director and Chairman of
the Company. With effect from 9 April 2018, Mr Peter Woodman was appointed Managing Director of the Company.
On 4 May 2018, the Company lodged a Prospectus with the Australian Securities and Investment Commission and
the Australian Securities Exchange for the offer of up to 35,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.20 each, together
with one free attaching listed option for every three shares, to raise up to $7,000,000 before costs.
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 2
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
(Continued)
On 18 July 2018, the Company issued 35,000,000 ordinary shares at $0.20 and 11,666,402 listed options
exercisable at $0.20 each on or before 31 July 2021 raising $7,000,000 prior to costs pursuant to the Prospectus.
On 26 July 2018, the Company was granted admission to the Australian Securities Exchange with official quotation
occurring on 30 July 2018. The $7,000,000 raised (before costs) is being directed towards the Company’s
exploration programs planned to evaluate the potential of the Orpheus Project in the Fraser Range.
Operations
Orpheus Project – Fraser Range
Constellation holds the Orpheus Project (the “Project”), which comprises five tenements covering approximately
552km² in a prospective portion of the Fraser Range province of south eastern Western Australia (Figure 1). The
Orpheus Project includes a 70% interest in three mineral exploration licences and one mineral exploration licence
application, and a 100% interest in a further mineral exploration licence.
The Fraser Range province is considered prospective for nickel, copper and gold, and has attracted significant
exploration since the discovery of Independence Group NL’s (ASX: IGO) Nova-Bollinger nickel and copper deposit
in 2012. The bulk of the Project is strategically located along strike and mid-way between the Nova deposit to the
northeast and Independence Company’s Crux nickel prospect to the southwest. Recent work has confirmed a
number of targets within the Orpheus Project tenements and Constellation plans to undertake systematic
exploration to assess these targets.
Recent field work on E63/1281 and E63/1282 has confirmed three targets that require further ground work as a
priority and include two nickel-copper sulphide targets and one gold target. Two priority nickel-copper sulphide
targets have been identified on E28/2403 as a result of recent gravity surveys.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (Continued)
E63/1281 - Nickel
A review during the 2017 financial year of the airborne electromagnetic (“HeliTEM”) survey identified a new
conductive anomaly within the data set that has the potential to be related to a bedrock mineralised source below
the conductive cover. The HeliTEM anomaly shows no correlation to early time results related to surface conditions
and develops at a mid-time well above the system noise level and continues with a well-defined decay to the latest
times.
The target identified on E63/1281 for ground electromagnetic (“EM”) follow-up from the HeliTEM survey is
associated with elevated Ni-Cu-Co rock chips at surface. Soil sampling on an E-W grid with samples 50m apart on
100m traverses was completed in December 2017 and identified a coincident Ni-Co anomaly on the eastern portion
of the sampled area.
The presence of elevated Ni-Co in soil samples and Ni-Cu-Co in rock chips adjacent to the HeliTEM anomaly
indicates that undertaking a high powered ground EM survey to screen for potential buried magmatic Ni-Cu
sulphides is warranted.
E63/1282 - Nickel
During the 2017 review, several HeliTEM targets were identified on E63/1282 for ground EM follow-up. All targets
are under shallow cover and any sub crop found was weathered and leached.
Whilst some rare sub crop was located in the vicinity of target B3, the rocks were weathered and leached. Analytical
results from one such area of sub crop did not return any anomalous values. Some iron rich lag was sampled in
the vicinity of Targets B2 and B3 but again did not return any significant results.
Given the cover in the area and weathered and leached outcrop, ground EM is planned over these targets to
adequately screen them for magmatic nickel-copper sulphide potential.
E63/1282 - Gold
This is a ~3km long gold in soil anomaly (up to 13ppb Au) identified from historic sampling associated with a well-
defined NE-SW trending magnetic anomaly and follow-up work by Apollo Minerals Limited in August 2017 returned
results up to 27ppb gold in soil samples.
Soil sampling in December 2017 was completed over this target on a 100m x 50m E-W grid and has confirmed the
presence of the historic gold in soil anomaly, outlining a coherent 500m x 150m gold anomaly in the centre of the
sampled area. There are also a number of other anomalous gold in soil areas identified from this survey.
Shallow air core drilling traverses over the 500m x 150m anomaly are also planned.
E28/2403 - Nickel
On E28/2403 three conceptual magnetic targets were covered by a gravity survey on a 400m x 400m grid in 2017.
This was subsequently followed up by an infill gravity survey on a 200m x 200m spacing over two anomalies of
interest.
A ground gravity survey was completed over the north eastern portion of E28/2403 by Atlas Geophysics in 2017 for
Apollo Minerals Limited. The aim of the survey was to test for positive gravity anomalies that could represent
prospective rock types for magmatic Ni-sulphide mineralisation under cover.
The results of the survey were encouraging, with Bouguer gravity anomalies coincident with the circular magnetic
feature that constitutes the eastern target zone, and over the northern part of the central target zone.
The residual Bouguer anomalies have amplitudes of around 3 mGal, consistent with that expected for an ultramafic
intrusive below a cover sequence of around 80 to 100m.
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 4
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
(Continued)
Four regional MLTEM (Moving Loop Electromagnetic) test lines are planned to cover the strongest parts of the
gravity anomalies which would test for bed-rock conductors potentially associated with the thickest and/or
shallowest parts of the intrusions, whilst providing some idea of the variation of background EM response from the
cover and the presence of any regional formational conductors in the area. The survey is anticipated to commence
in early September quarter.
Results of Operations
The net loss of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2018 was $417,066 (2017: $162,174). This loss is
predominately comprised of exploration and evaluation expenditure and is attributable to the Company’s accounting
policy of expensing exploration and evaluation expenditure (other than expenditures incurred in the acquisition of
the rights to explore) incurred by the Company in the period subsequent to the acquisition of the rights to explore
up to the successful completion of definitive feasibility studies for each separate area of interest. In the current
financial year, the net loss also includes impairment of the exploration and evaluation asset of $50,000 to record
the asset at its recoverable amount based on an independent valuation.
On 30 April 2018, the Company entered into a Debt for Equity Subscription Agreement with its parent entity Apollo
Minerals Limited (“Apollo Minerals”). Under the terms of the agreement, Apollo Minerals agreed to forgive all loan
advances made to the Company in relation to exploration activities at the Orpheus Project. The loan balance
forgiven of $1,200,148 has been recognised directly in equity.
Financial Position
As at 30 June 2018, the Company had a net current asset deficiency of $114,895 (2017: net current asset deficiency
of $12,500). At 30 June 2018, the Company had cash reserves of $33,189 (2017: $nil), and borrowings of $100,000
(2017: $974,999). At 30 June 2018, the Company had net assets of $238,968 (2017: net liabilities $587,499).
Subsequent to 30 June 2018, the Company has listed on the Australian Securities Exchange through the issue of
35,000,000 ordinary shares in the Company at $0.20 per share amounting to a capital raising of $7,000,000 before
costs.
Dividends
No dividends were paid or declared since the start of the financial year. No recommendation for payment of
dividends has been made.
Future Developments and Results
The objective of the Company is to create long-term shareholder value through the discovery, development and
acquisition of technically and economically viable mineral deposits.
To date, the Company has not commenced production of any minerals, nor has it identified a Mineral Resource in
accordance with the JORC Code. To achieve its objective, the Company currently has the following business
strategy and prospect over the medium term; to conduct further field work to follow up targets identified at the
Orpheus Project.
These activities are inherently risky and the Board is unable to provide certainty of the expected results of these
activities, or that any or all of these likely developments will be achieved.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
(Continued)
REMUNERATION REPORT - AUDITED
This Remuneration Report, which forms part of the Directors' Report, sets out information about the remuneration
of Key Management Personnel (“KMP”) of the Company.
Details of Key Management Personnel
The KMP of the Company during or since the end of the financial year were as follows:
Directors
Mr Ian Middlemas
Mr Peter Woodman
Mr Robert Behets
Mr Mark Pearce
Other KMP
Chairman (appointed 17 November 2017)
Managing Director (appointed 9 April 2018)
Non-Executive Director
Non-Executive Director
Mr Clint McGhie
Company Secretary
Unless otherwise disclosed, the KMP held their position from 1 July 2017 until the date of this report.
Remuneration Policy
The Company’s remuneration policy for its KMP has been developed by the Board taking into account the size of
the Company, the size of the management team for the Company, the nature and stage of development of the
Company’s current operations, and market conditions and comparable salary levels for companies of a similar size
and operating in similar sectors. In addition to considering the above general factors, the Board has also placed
emphasis on the following specific issues in determining the remuneration policy for KMP:
(a)
the Company is currently focused on undertaking exploration, appraisal and development activities;
(b)
risks associated with small cap resource companies whilst exploring and developing projects; and
(c) other than profit which may be generated from asset sales, the Company does not expect to be undertaking
profitable operations until sometime after the commencement of commercial production on the project.
Remuneration Policy for Executives
The Company’s remuneration policy is to provide a fixed remuneration component and a performance based
component (short term incentive and long term incentive). The Board believes that this remuneration policy is
appropriate given the considerations discussed in the section above and is appropriate in aligning executives’
objectives with shareholder and business objectives.
Fixed Remuneration
Fixed remuneration consists of base salary, as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds and other
non-cash benefits.
Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board. The process consists of a review of Company and individual
performance, relevant comparative remuneration externally and internally and, where appropriate, external advice
on policies and practices.
Performance Based Remuneration – Short Term Incentive
Some executives are entitled to an annual cash incentive payment upon achieving various key performance
indicators (“KPI’s”), as set by the Board. Having regard to the current size, nature and opportunities of the Company,
the Board has determined that these KPI’s will include measures such as successful commencement and/or
completion of exploration activities (e.g. commencement/completion of exploration programs within budgeted
timeframes and costs), establishment of government relationships (e.g. establish and maintain sound working
relationships with government and officialdom), development activities (e.g. completion of infrastructure studies and
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 8
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
(Continued)
commercial agreements), corporate activities (e.g. recruitment of key personnel and representation of the company
at international conferences) and business development activities (e.g. corporate transactions and capital raisings).
These measures were chosen as the Board believes they represent the key drivers in the short and medium term
success of the Project’s development. On an annual basis, subsequent to year end, the Board assesses
performance against each individual executive’s KPI criteria. During the 2018 financial year, no bonuses were
approved, paid, or are payable.
Performance Based Remuneration – Long Term Incentive
The Board may issue incentive securities to some executives (if applicable) as a key component of the incentive
portion of their remuneration, in order to attract and retain the services of any executives and to provide an incentive
linked to the performance of the Company. The Board considers that for each executive who may receive securities
in the future, their experience in the resources industry will greatly assist the Company in progressing its projects
to the next stage of development and the identification of new projects. As such, the Board believes that the number
of incentive securities to be granted to any executives will be commensurate to their value to the Company.
The Board has a policy of granting incentive securities to executives (if applicable) with exercise prices at and/or
above market share price (at the time of agreement). As such, incentive securities granted to executives will
generally only be of benefit if the executives perform to the level whereby the value of the Company increases
sufficiently to warrant exercising the incentive securities granted.
Other than service-based vesting conditions, there are not expected to be additional performance criteria if incentive
securities are granted to executives, as given the speculative nature of the Company’s activities and the small
management team responsible for its running, it is considered the performance of the executives and the
performance and value of the Company are closely related. If other forms of incentive securities are issued, then
performance milestones may be applied.
During the year ended 30 June 2018, the Company issued 1,000,000 incentive options to Mr Peter Woodman as
part of his remuneration as Managing Director.
The Company’s Securities Trading Policy prohibits KMP’s from entering into arrangements to limit their exposure
to Incentive Securities granted as part of their remuneration package.
Remuneration Policy for Non-Executive Directors
The Board policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for time,
commitment and responsibilities. Given the current size, nature and risks of the Company, incentive securities have
been used to attract and retain Non-Executive Directors. The Board determines payments to the Non-Executive
Directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability.
Independent external advice is sought when required.
The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to Non-Executive Directors is subject to approval by
shareholders at a General Meeting. Total Directors' fees paid to all Non-Executive Directors are not to exceed
$250,000 per annum. Director's fees paid to Non-Executive Directors accrue on a daily basis. Fees for Non-
Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the economic entity. However, to align Directors' interests
with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and Non-Executive
Directors may in limited circumstances receive incentive securities in order to secure their services.
Non-Executive Director fees will commence upon listing of the Company on the Australian Securities Exchange.
Fees for the Chairman are presently $36,000 and fees for other Non-Executive Directors are $20,000 per annum.
These fees cover main board activities only. Non-Executive Directors may receive additional remuneration for other
services provided to the Company.
Relationship between Remuneration of KMP and Shareholder Wealth
During the Company’s project identification, acquisition, exploration and development phases of its business, the
Board anticipates that the Company will retain earnings (if any) and other cash resources for the exploration and
development of its resource projects. Accordingly the Company does not currently have a policy with respect to
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 9
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
(Continued)
REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED (CONTINUED)
the payment of dividends and returns of capital. Therefore there is no relationship between the Board’s policy for
determining the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP and dividends paid and returns of capital by the
Company during the current and previous financial years.
The Board did not determine the nature and amount of remuneration of the KMP by reference to changes in the
price at which shares in the Company traded between the beginning and end of the current and the previous four
financial years. Discretionary annual cash bonuses, when applicable, will be based on achieving various non-
financial key performance indicators to be determined by the Board. However, as noted above, KMP’s may receive
Incentive Securities in the future which generally will only be of value should the value of the Company’s shares
increase sufficiently to warrant exercising the Incentive Securities.
Relationship between Remuneration of KMP and Earnings
As discussed above, the Company is currently undertaking new project acquisition, exploration and development
activities, and does not expect to be undertaking profitable operations (other than by way of material asset sales,
none of which is currently planned) until sometime after the successful commercialisation, production and sales of
commodities from one or more of its projects. Accordingly the Board does not consider earnings during the current
and previous four financial years when determining the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP.
In addition to a focus on operating activities, the Board is also focused on finding and completing new business and
other corporate opportunities. The Board considers that the prospects of the Company and resulting impact on

current financial year.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies adopted in preparing the financial report of Constellation Resources Limited
(“Constellation Resources” or “Company”) for the year ended 30 June 2018 are stated to assist in a general
understanding of the financial report.
Constellation Resources is a Company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
The financial report of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2018 was authorised for issue in accordance with
a resolution of the Directors on 12 September 2018.
(a) Basis of Preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian
Accounting Standards (“AASBs”) and interpretations adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board
(“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial statements comprise the financial statements of the
Company. For the purposes of preparing the financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.
The financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for other financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss and available-for-sale investments, which have been measured at fair value.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars.
(b) Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern
which assumes the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realise its
assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.
The Company currently has no source of operating cash inflows other than interest income and funds sourced
through capital raising activities. As at 30 June 2018, the Company has $33,189 in cash and cash equivalents (30
June 2017: $nil) and a net working capital deficiency (current assets less current liabilities) of $114,895 (2017:
deficiency of $12,500).
Subsequent to 30 June 2018, the Company has listed on the Australian Securities Exchange through the issue of
35,000,000 ordinary shares in the Company at $0.20 per share amounting to a capital raising of $7,000,000 before
costs. As such, the Directors believe that the Company has sufficient cash resources to allow it to meet minimum
exploration expenditure commitments on existing tenements and undertake continuing activities designed to
advance the Orpheus Project and operate corporately for at least the next 12 months. For this reason, the financial
statements are prepared on a going concern basis.
(c) Statement of Compliance
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards
(“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
In the current year, the Company has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by
the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period. New and revised
standards and amendments thereof and interpretations effective for the current reporting period that are relevant to
the Company include:
•
•
•
AASB 2016-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for
Unrealised Losses which clarify that the existence of a deductible temporary difference depends solely on a
comparison of the carrying amount of an asset and its tax base at the end of the reporting period, and is not
effected by possible future changes in the carrying amount or expected manner of recovery of the asset;
AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to
AASB 107 which amend existing presentation and disclosure requirements to evaluate changes in liabilities
arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes; and
AASB 2017-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Further Annual Improvements 2016-2016
Cycle which clarify the existing disclosure requirements and scope of AASB 12 Disclosure of Interest in
Other Entities to apply to interests that are classified as held for sale or distribution.
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 20
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018
(Continued)
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet
effective have not been adopted by the Company for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2018. Those which
may be relevant to the Company are set out in the table below, but these are not expected to have any significant

(d) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid
investments with original maturities of 3 months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within
short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.
(e) Interests in Joint Ventures
The Company's share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of joint venture operations are included in the
appropriate items of the financial statements. Details of the Company's interests in joint ventures are shown at Note
20.
(f) Trade and Other Receivables
Trade receivables are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less a provision for any uncollectable debts.
An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are
written-off as incurred.
Receivables from related parties are recognised and carried at the nominal amount due and are interest free.
(g) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Expenditure on exploration and evaluation is accounted for in accordance with the 'area of interest' method and
with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources, which is the Australian equivalent of IFRS 6.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure encompasses expenditures incurred by the Company in connection with
the exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources before the technical feasibility and commercial viability of
extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable.
For each area of interest, expenditure incurred in the acquisition of rights to explore is capitalised, classified as
tangible or intangible, and recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset. Exploration and evaluation assets
are measured at cost at recognition and are recorded as an asset if:
(i)
the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and
(ii) at least one of the following conditions is also met:
•
the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development
and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; and
• 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 are continuing.
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 21
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018
(Continued)
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred by the Company subsequent to the acquisition of the rights to
explore is expensed as incurred, up until the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the project has been
demonstrated with a bankable feasibility study.
Capitalised exploration costs are reviewed at each reporting date to establish whether an indication of impairment
exists. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the capitalised exploration costs 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 is made to proceed with development, accumulated expenditure is tested for impairment and
transferred to development properties, and then amortised over the life of the reserves associated with the area of
interest once mining operations have commenced.
Recoverability of the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on successful
development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest.
(h) Payables
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received. Trade accounts
payable are normally settled within 60 days.
(i) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for
which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.
(j) Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognised at the fair value of the consideration received net of the amount of goods and services
tax (GST) payable to the taxation authority. Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic
benefits will flow to the Company and can be reliably measured.
Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset.
(k) Income Tax
The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the
notional income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable
to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial
statements, and to unused tax losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when
the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively
enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable
temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary
differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised
in relation to these temporary differences if they arose on goodwill or in a transaction, other than a business
combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and
tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the
temporary differences and it is probable that the differences 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.
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 22
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018
(Continued)
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income
tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent
that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly
in equity.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current
tax assets against tax liabilities and the deferred tax liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation
authority.
(l) Employee Entitlements
Provision is made for the Company's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to
reporting date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months have been measured at
the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable
later than 12 months have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made
for those benefits.
(m) Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to members of the Company for
the reporting period, after excluding any costs of servicing equity, by the weighted average number of ordinary
shares of the Company.
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the basic EPS earnings, adjusted by the after tax effect of financing costs
associated with dilutive potential Ordinary Shares and the effect on revenues and expenses of conversion to
Ordinary Shares associated with dilutive potential Ordinary Shares, by the weighted average number of Ordinary
Shares and dilutive Ordinary Shares.
(n) Goods and Services Tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST
incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of
the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial
position are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of
investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
(o) Use and Revision of Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the financial report requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that
affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an
ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if
the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both
current and future periods.
In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying
accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are
described Note 1(w).

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(p) Operating Segments
An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn
revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of
the same entity), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to
make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete
financial information is available. The chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Board of Directors,
taken as a whole. This includes start up operations which are yet to earn revenues. Management will also consider
other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment
information presented to the board of directors.
Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the Board of Directors.
The Company aggregates two or more operating segments when they have similar economic characteristics.
Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as prescribed by AASB 8 are reported separately. However,
an operating segment that does not meet the quantitative criteria is still reported separately where information about
the segment would be useful to users of the financial statements.
Information about other business activities and operating segments that are below the quantitative criteria are
combined and disclosed in a separate category for “all other segments”.
(q) Impairment of Assets
The Company 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 Company 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 the 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.
(r) Fair Value Estimation
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for
disclosure purposes.
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 reporting date. The quoted market price used
for financial assets held by the Company is the current bid price; the appropriate quoted market price for financial
liabilities is the current ask price.
The nominal value less estimated credit adjustments of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate
their fair values. 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 Company for similar financial
instruments.
(s) Issued Capital
Ordinary Shares are classified as equity. Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the
consideration received by the Company.
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.
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 24
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018
(Continued)
(t) Dividends
Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the
discretion of the Company, on or before the end of the year but not distributed at reporting date.
(u) Share-Based Payments
Equity-settled share-based payments are provided to officers, employees, consultants and other advisors. These
share-based payments are measured at the fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. Fair value is
determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model.
The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on
the Company's estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. At each reporting date, the Company revises
its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original
estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss over the remaining vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment
to the share based payments reserve.
Equity-settled share-based payments may also be provided as consideration for the acquisition of assets. Where
ordinary shares are issued, the transaction is recorded at fair value based on the quoted price of the ordinary shares
at the date of issue. The acquisition is then recorded as an asset or expensed in accordance with accounting
standards.
(v) Property, Plant and Equipment
(i)
Cost and valuation
All classes of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost.
Where assets have been revalued, the potential effect of the capital gains tax on disposal has not been
taken into account in the determination of the revalued carrying amount. Where it is expected that a liability
for capital gains tax will arise, this expected amount is disclosed by way of note.
(ii)
Depreciation
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis on all property, plant and equipment.
Major depreciation periods are:

(w) Significant judgements and key assumptions
The directors evaluate estimates and judgements incorporated into the financial report based on historical
knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events
and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Company.
(i)
Key judgements
The Company capitalises expenditure incurred in the acquisition of rights to explore and records this as an asset
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 (Note 1(g)). There are areas of interest from which no reserves
have been extracted, but the directors are of the continued belief that such expenditure should not be written off
since the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves.
Such capitalised expenditure is carried at reporting date at $350,000 (2017: $400,000).
The Company recognises share based payments in accordance with the policy at Note 1(u).

(c) Rights Attaching to Ordinary Shares
The rights attaching to fully paid ordinary shares (“Ordinary Shares”) arise from a combination of the Company's
Constitution, statute and general law.
Copies of the Company's Constitution are available for inspection during business hours at the Company's
registered office. The clauses of the Constitution contain the internal rules of the Company and define matters such
as the rights, duties and powers of its shareholders and directors, including provisions to the following effect (when
read in conjunction with the Corporations Act 2001 or Listing Rules).
Shares
(i)
The issue of shares in the capital of the Company and options over unissued shares by the Company is
under the control of the directors, subject to the Corporations Act 2001 and any rights attached to any special
class of shares.
Meetings of Members
(ii)
Directors may call a meeting of members whenever they think fit. Members may call a meeting as provided
by the Corporations Act 2001. The Constitution contains provisions prescribing the content requirements of
notices of meetings of members and all members are entitled to a notice of meeting. A meeting may be held
in two or more places linked together by audio-visual communication devices. A quorum for a meeting of
members is 2 shareholders. Subsequent to listing on the Australian Securities Exchange, the Company will
hold annual general meetings in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the Listing Rules.
Voting
(iii)
Subject to any rights or restrictions at the time being attached to any shares or class of shares of the
Company, each member of the Company is entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote at a general
meeting. Resolutions of members will be decided by a show of hands unless a poll is demanded. On a
show of hands each eligible voter present has one vote. However, where a person present at a general
meeting represents personally or by proxy, attorney or representative more than one member, on a show of
hands the person is entitled to one vote only despite the number of members the person represents. On a
poll each eligible member has one vote for each fully paid share held and a fraction of a vote for each partly
paid share determined by the amount paid up on that share.
Changes to the Constitution
(iv)
The Company's Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters
of the members present and voting at a general meeting of the Company. At least 28 days' written notice
specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

and E63/1695) in the prospective Fraser Range province.
Constellation Resources is required to sole fund all joint venture activities until the date it delivers a Bankable
Feasibility Study for a Mining Area to Enterprise Metals Limited.
21. SEGMENT INFORMATION
AASB 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the
Company that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the
segment and to assess its performance.
The Company operates in one segment, being exploration for mineral resources and in one geographical location
being Australia. This is the basis on which internal reports are provided to the Directors for assessing performance
and determining the allocation of resources within the Company.
22. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
Overview
The Company's principal financial instruments comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables,
trade and other payables and borrowings. The main risk arising from the Company's financial instruments is liquidity
risk.
This note presents information about the Company's exposure to the above risk, its objectives, policies and
processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital. Other than as disclosed, there have
been no significant changes since the previous financial year to the exposure or management of these risks.
The Company manages its exposure to key financial risks in accordance with the Company's financial risk
management policy. Key risks are monitored and reviewed as circumstances change (e.g. acquisition of a new
project) and policies are revised as required. The overall objective of the Company's financial risk management
policy is to support the delivery of the Company's financial targets whilst protecting future financial security.
Given the nature and size of the business and uncertainty as to the timing and amount of cash inflows and outflows,
the Company does not enter into derivative transactions to mitigate the financial risks. In addition, the Company's
policy is that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken for the purposes of making speculative gains.
As the Company's operations change, the Directors will review this policy periodically going forward.
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management
framework. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing the Company's financial risks as summarised
below.
Constellation Resources Limited ANNUAL REPORT 2018 36
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018
(Continued)
(a) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The
Board's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that the Company will always have sufficient
liquidity to meet its liabilities when due.
The contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments, are provided below. There
are no netting arrangements in respect of financial liabilities.

The Company is exposed to commodity price risk. These commodity prices can be volatile and are influenced by
factors beyond the Company's control. As the Company is currently engaged in exploration and business
development activities, no sales of commodities are forecast for the next 12 months, and accordingly, no hedging
or derivative transactions have been used to manage commodity price risk.
(c) Capital Management
The Company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern while financing the
development of its projects through primarily equity based financing. The Board's policy is to maintain a strong
capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the
business. Given the stage of the Company, the Board's objective is to minimise debt and to raise funds as required
through the issue of new shares.
The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the year. During the next 12
months, the Company will continue to explore project financing opportunities, primarily consisting of additional
issues of equity should it be required.
(d) Fair Value
The Company uses various methods in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument. The methods comprise:
•
•
•
Level 1 – the fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets.
Level 2 – the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).
Level 3 – the fair value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable
market data.

22. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The net fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities approximates their carrying value as at 30 June 2018
and 30 June 2017. The methods for estimating fair value are outlined in the relevant notes to the financial
statements.
The quoted market price represents the fair value determined based on quoted prices on active markets as at the
reporting date without any deduction for transaction costs.
(e)
Interest Rate Risk
The Company does not have any long-term borrowing or long term deposits as at 30 June 2018, which would
expose it to significant cash flow interest rate risk. Cash and cash equivalents as at 30 June 2018 are held in a no
interest cheque account. As at 30 June 2017, the Company had a non-current borrowing from its parent entity
Apollo Minerals Limited. Interest was not payable on the borrowing.
The Company currently does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage interest rate risk.
(f) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to
meet its contractual obligations. This arises principally from cash and cash equivalents and trade and other
receivables.
There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Company. The carrying amount of the Company's
financial assets represents the maximum credit risk exposure, as represented below:
Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents
Trade and other receivables

2017

The Company does not have any customers and accordingly does not have any significant exposure to bad or
doubtful debts. Trade and other receivables comprise primarily GST refunds. At 30 June 2018 none (2017: none)
of the Company's receivables are past due. No impairment losses on receivables have been recognised. With
respect to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from
default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.
23. COMMITMENTS
Management have identified the following material commitments for the Company as at 30 June 2018 and 30 June
2017:
Commitments for exploration expenditure:
Not longer than 1 year
Longer than 1 year and shorter than 5 years

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
(Continued)
Constellation Resources Limited
Independent auditor’s report to members
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most
significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were
addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming
our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
SHARE BASED PAYMENT
Area of focus
Refer also to remuneration report, notes 1 (u)
and 17
The Company entered into a share-
based payment arrangement during the
year. The options were issued to provide
long term incentives for the Managing
Director to deliver long term shareholder
returns.
The above arrangement required
significant judgements and estimations
by management, including the following:
— The evaluation of the grant date for
the arrangement, and the evaluation
of the fair value of the underlying
share price of the company as at the
grant date;
— The evaluation of key inputs into the
Black Scholes option pricing model,
including the significant judgment of
the forecast volatility of the share
option over its exercise period.
The results of this share-based payment
arrangement materially affect the
disclosures.
How our audit addressed it
Our audit procedures included:
— Evaluating the fair values of the
share-based payment arrangement
by agreeing assumptions to third
party evidence. In determining the
grant dates, we evaluated what were
the most appropriate dates based on
the terms and conditions of the
share-based payment arrangements.
— For the specific application of the
Black Scholes model, we assessed
the experience of the company
secretary who advised the value of
the arrangement. We retested some
of the assumptions used in the model
and recalculated those fair values.
We considered that the forecast
volatility applied in the model to be
appropriately reasonable and within
industry norms.
— We also reconciled the vesting of the
share-based payment arrangement
to disclosures made in the notes to
the financial report.

Independent auditor’s report to members
CARRYING VALUE OF EXPLORATION COST
Area of focus
Refer also to notes 1(g) and 8
How our audit addressed it
The Company has incurred exploration
costs for the Orpheus Project located in
the Fraser Range area. There is a risk
that accounting criteria associated with
the capitalisation of exploration and
evaluation expenditure may no longer be
appropriate and that capitalised costs
exceed the value in use.
An impairment review is only required if
an impairment trigger is identified. Due to
the nature of the mining industry,
indicators of impairment applying the
value in use model include:
— Significant decrease seen in global
mineral prices
— Changes to exploration plans
— Loss of rights to tenements
— Changes to reserve estimates
— Costs of extraction and production
Our audit procedures included:
— A review of the directors’ assessment
of the criteria for the capitalisation of
exploration expenditure and
evaluation of whether there are any
indicators of impairment to
capitalised costs.
— A review of the independent
valuation of the Orpheus Project.
— Assessing the viability of the
tenements and whether there were
any indicators of impairment to those
costs capitalised in the current
period.
— We assessed the adequacy of the
Company’s disclosures in respect of
the transactions.
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises
the information in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2018, 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 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.

Constellation Resources Limited
Independent auditor’s report to members
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 Company 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 Company or to cease operations, or has 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 these financial statements is
located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at:
