CHAIRMAN’S LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dear Fellow Shareholder,
It is with much pleasure that I present to you Dacian Gold’s fifth annual report.
In last year’s annual report I commented that the 2016 financial year was the most significant year of your Company’s
short history. Whilst true at the time, it does pale against what the 2017 year has achieved. To borrow from the pages
that follow in the last 12 months, Dacian Gold has completed:
• A bankable feasibility study delivering an initial Ore Reserve of 1.2 million ounces;
• A $150 million senior bank facility from three highly regarded banks on very favourable terms to the
Company;
• A $136 million equity raising through the issue of 65.5 million new shares;
• Its first hedge program selling 52,000 ounces of gold in FY2020 at an average price of A$1,782 per
ounce; and
• All requisite permitting to build the Mt Morgans Gold Project.
With the funding locked away and the permitting in place, Dacian Gold has commenced the following project and
construction activities at Mt Morgans:
• started underground mining at Beresford;
• started construction of the new 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment facility near Jupiter;
• nearly completed construction of a 400-room accommodation village; and
• started construction of all the mine-support buildings, workshops, temporary power station, changerooms
etc at Westralia.
There are some excellent photographs in this annual report that clearly show the rate of advance of mine development
and construction on numerous fronts.
And we are also very busy on the exploration campaign having completed over 850 drill holes at Cameron Well alone
during the year. We believe Cameron Well is shaping up as an emerging gold discovery, and possibly the third large
mineralised system at Mt Morgans, after Westralia and Jupiter. We have just drilled the very first diamond drill holes
into Cameron Well and recorded our best ever intersection of 2.3m @ 311.3 g/t gold from a depth of just 100m below
the surface. This is the best intersection we have recorded from all 3,204 holes drilled for a total of 313,000m at Mt
Morgans over the last 5 years, since the IPO.
We are busy recruiting people for the project and to resource head office for when we are in production early next year.
This financial year we have added 31 people to the Dacian workforce – the majority site based, although this doesn’t
include contractors on site, which at the time of writing amounted to an additional 335 personnel.
Everyone in the Company is very focussed on our stated objective of joining the gold producer ranks in March next
year. There is still a lot to do of course, but the Company is very fortunate to have a dedicated and hardworking team
of Dacian people and contractors, whom together I am confident will deliver this project on time and on budget.
I would also like to extend my thanks to you, the Shareholders, who have supported the Company in its capital raising
endeavours over the last 12 months, and your genuine interest in how the Company is progressing.
Rohan Williams
Executive Chairman

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION AND DACIAN GOLD’S CORPORATE OBJECTIVE
Dacian Gold’s Mt Morgans Gold Project (MMGP) is
located 25km west of Laverton, being approximately
750km north-east of Perth in Western Australia (see
Figure 1). The MMGP is a 520 km² tenement package
comprising predominantly granted mining leases. It is
situated in the Laverton gold district which is known to
contain approximately 30 million ounces of gold, making
it the second highest endowed gold district in Western
Australia, behind Kalgoorlie.
The MMGP has been the Company’s sole focus since its
IPO on the ASX in November 2012. In less than five years
since the Company’s IPO, Dacian Gold has achieved the
following key milestones at the MMGP:
•
•
•
•
•
discovered two +1 million ounce gold deposits at
Westralia and Jupiter (see Figure 2);
published an initial Ore Reserve of 1.2 million
ounces of gold following the completion of a
bankable Feasibility Study;
published an expansion PFS totalling 1.7 million
ounces, including the Ore Reserve;
executed a A$150 million senior project debt
facility for project development;
completed A$136 million equity funding for
project development; and
•
commenced infrastructure construction and
underground mining.
It was during the 2017 financial year that Dacian Gold
completed the bankable Feasibility Study delivering an
initial 1.2 million ounce Ore Reserve, the expansion
PFS, the project financing, the equity financing and the
commencement of construction and underground mining
at the MMGP.
Each of the key achievements completed during FY2017
is described in more detail in the following pages under
the headings Project Construction and Mine Development,
Project Financing, MMGP Feasibility Study, Ore Reserves
and Expansion PFS. Also included in this Annual Report
are descriptions of exploration activities at Mt Morgans,
under Exploration and Drilling, as well as the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve Statement.
Dacian Gold’s corporate objective is to develop the
MMGP into a leading, high-margin, long-life goldfield,
with first gold production in Q1 of CY2018. In addition,
Dacian Gold will maintain aggressive exploration
programs at the MMGP so as to realise the undiscovered
gold endowment that Company management believes
exists within the MMGP.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
MT MORGANS PROJECT CONSTRUCTION AND MINE DEVELOPMENT
Following completion of the A$150 million senior debt
facility in the December 2016 quarter and the A$136
million equity capital raising in early 2017, the Board
of Dacian Gold approved management to proceed with
development of the MMGP.
The infrastructure required to construct and develop the
MMGP comprised a new 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment facility
and tailing storage facility (TSF); establishment of raw-
water supply infrastructure (Borefield), a 400-person
accommodation village, construction of mine service
area facilities (including offices, workshops, fuel storage
and power distribution) at both the Westralia and Jupiter
Mine areas; administration complex, reticulation of
overland power from the power station, re-establishment
of previously used haul roads and service roads and
installation of mobile phone, data, voice and radio
communications infrastructure.
The bankable Feasibility Study capital cost estimate to
build the project was initially A$172 million but later
reduced to A$149 million following recognition of
several material cost savings.
There are two principal work areas within the MMGP:
1. The Westralia underground mines (Beresford and
Allanson), the accommodation village and the
Westralia mine service facilities (administration,
workshops and temporary power station) which
are all centred close to the Westralia open pit and
historic Mt Morgans township that lie in the western
part of the MMGP (Figure 2); and
2.
Lying 15km to the east of the Westralia area is the
Jupiter mine area where the new treatment facility,
Jupiter mine service facilities, haul road and the
main gas-fired power station will be constructed.
The 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment facility and TSF, together with
the Borefield and mine service infrastructure at Jupiter
are to be built by GR Engineering Services Ltd (GRES)
under a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) engineering,
procurement and construction (EPC) contract, signed in
April 2017.
The underground mining contract for Beresford and
Allanson was awarded to RUC Cementation Mining
(RUC), also signed in April 2017.
Construction of infrastructure around the Westralia
Mine Area, including the accommodation village and
Westralia Mine Service facilities, is being managed by
Dacian Gold.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
MMGP Project Construction – Jupiter Area
As noted above, the principal infrastructure being built
around the Jupiter area is the new 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment
facility and TSF; the permanent power station, the
main site administration complex and the Jupiter mine
workshops.
In April 2017 construction commenced on the 2.5Mtpa
CIL treatment facility and clearing of the mine service
area. Figure 3 shows the excellent progress made by
GRES in the 18 weeks from signing the EPC contract and
mobilising to site.
The EPC Contract is being undertaken on a GMP of
A$107.1 million with any under-run of the GMP to be
shared between the Company and GRES.
Figure 4 is a photograph of the transfer vault that will
sit under the coarse ore stockpile (refer Figure 3 for
location).

MMGP Project Construction – Westralia Area
The principal infrastructure being built around the
Westralia area is a 400 room accommodation village
and mine service facilities for the two new underground
mines located below the Westralia open pit (Beresford
and Allanson).
The accommodation village is being constructed on the
same site as the 1990s accommodation village (since
cleared and rehabilitated). Dacian Gold purchased a
high-quality, second hand camp that was built by BHP
for the Worsley Alumina upgrade that was completed in
2012.
Clearing for the accommodation village commenced in
late February 2017. Figure 5 is an aerial photograph of
the accommodation village taken in 2017 showing the
layout and progress of the village site.
The Westralia Mine Service Area (MSA) is located
immediately north-east of the Westralia open pit from
5
which the access portals to the Beresford and Allanson
underground mines are located. Construction of the
MSA commenced in April 2017, and upon completion,
will comprise:
• Dacian Gold and RUC mine administration complex
and change rooms;
•
First aid and mine rescue facilities;
ROM pad;
Light vehicle workshop; and
•
• Heavy vehicle workshop;
•
• 3MW temporary diesel-fired power station to supply
power to the underground operation, the MSA
generally and the Accommodation Village, located
1km north-west of the MSA.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Mine Development
In April 2017, the Underground Mining Services
Contract for both the Beresford and Allanson mines was
executed with RUC Cementation Mining, and mining of
the Beresford Decline commenced. Figure 7 shows the
Ore Reserve mine plan for both Beresford and Allanson
beneath the Westralia open pit.
The decline and an associated vent drive are sited
approximately 20m above the Westralia pit floor near
the southern end of the Westralia open pit. The decline
heads south to commence mining the southern and upper
sections of the Beresford lodes.
Good initial progress has been made on the decline
development with performance approximately 300m
ahead of schedule at the time of this report. Figure 8
shows the decline location in respect of the planned
mining at Beresford, as well as a photo of the newly
excavated underground decline.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
PROJECT FINANCING
During the 2017 financial year, Dacian Gold completed
the financing for the development and construction of
the MMGP with a combination of debt funding (A$150
million) and equity funding (A$136 million). The equity
funding was completed by way of share placements
and a non-renounceable accelerated entitlement offer;
whereas the debt financing was completed under a senior
project debt facility with Westpac Banking Corporation,
Australia and New Zealand Banking Group and BNP
Paribas (Financiers).
The combined funding of A$286 million (excluding costs)
will finance project construction, mine development,
exploration programs, an over-run facility, head office
costs and general working capital requirements up to
planned cash flow in April 2018.
The A$150 million Facility (Facility) contained terms that
are highly favourable to the Company and reflect the
Financiers’ detailed understanding of the Project. Whilst
the full terms of the Facility are confidential, the key
points are:
•
Project development debt facility of A$140 million
and cost overrun facility of A$10 million;
• No requirement to fully draw this Facility and no
financial penalties should this Facility not be fully
drawn;
•
•
•
Five-year tenor with a fixed schedule of repayments
starting September 2018 through to December
2021;
The Facility can be repaid early at any time without
restriction or financial penalty;
Surplus operating cash flows (after debt service)
from September 2018 can be distributed from
the project to the parent company (Dacian Gold)
subject to certain conditions – providing cash for
Dacian Gold to use as it sees fit;
• No mandatory hedging required, but a
discretionary hedging facility is available for gold
and currency;
• Minimal level of cash reserving and no mandatory
cash sweeping;
•
Security is provided via a fixed and floating
charge over the assets of Dacian Gold’s operating
subsidiary – Mt Morgans WA Mining Pty Ltd;
• Corporate guarantee provided by Dacian
Gold only during the period of construction,
commissioning and ramp up – which falls away on
achieving Project Completion; and
•
The Facility is drawn down in stages when needed
with interest payable only on the amounts drawn.
Financial Close of the Facility and the first draw down of
A$45 million occurred in August 2017.
The A$136 million equity financing (excluding costs) was
completed in two separate raisings:
• A A$26 million share placement in December 2016
at a share price of $2.50 per share; and
• A fully underwritten A$110 million institutional
share placement and accelerated non-renounceable
entitlement offer completed in March at a share price
of $2.00 per share.
The combined equity offerings resulted in the issue of
65.5 million new shares. At the time of writing this
Annual Report, the Company had 204.6 million shares
on issue.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
MMGP FEASIBILITY STUDY, ORE RESERVES AND MMGP EXPANSION
PRE-FEASIBILITY STUDY
On 21 November 2016, Dacian Gold published the
MMGP Feasibility Study (Feasibility Study) and MMGP
expansion Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS).
•
The Feasibility Study showed the project had the potential
to be a significant and low cost mid-tier WA-based gold
producer, with the following key metrics:
• A maiden 8 year Ore Reserve of 18.6Mt @ 2.0g/t
Au for 1.2 million ounces of gold that is estimated
to produce gold at an all in sustaining cost (AISC)
of A$1,039/oz;
• A site infrastructure capital expenditure of A$172M
that was subsequently reduced to A$149M after
capital savings were identified;
• Mine establishment capital costs of A$48M at
Beresford and Allanson (together the Westralia
Mining Area) and Jupiter;
•
Total capital costs for the MMGP is now estimated
at A$197M;
• Gold production will be principally sourced from a
large open pit mining complex at Jupiter and two
underground mines at Westralia; and
Project payback of less than 21 months (using
A$1,600/oz gold price) and initial Ore Reserve
to payback period ratio of 4.3, confirming the
MMGP’s potential as a high quality mid-tier gold
production centre.
The MMGP expansion PFS (see Cautionary Statement
below), assessed the potential impact of expanding the
Westralia Mine Area, with key outcomes including:
•
Potential increase of Ore Reserves to 21.4Mt @
2.4g/t Au for 1.65 million ounces of gold;
•
•
•
•
Potential increase in mine life from 8 to 9 years;
Potential reduction in AISC to A$970-975/oz;
Potential average gold production of 197,000
ounces per annum for the first 7 years; and
Increase in required capital expenditure of only
A$3M.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
Dacian Gold has concluded it has a reasonable basis for providing the forward-looking statements that relate to the Mt
Morgans expansion PFS that is included in this Annual Report. The detailed reasons for that conclusion are outlined in ASX
announcement dated 21 November 2016, which has been prepared in accordance with the JORC Code (2012) and the ASX
Listing Rules.
The expansion PFS outcomes are underpinned by a declared Ore Reserves (73%) and include a minor contribution (27%)
of Inferred Mineral Resource. The Company notes that an Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence and
that the JORC Code 2012 advises that to be an Inferred Mineral Resource it is reasonable to expect that the majority of the
Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration. Based on advice
from relevant Competent Persons, the Company is confident that a significant portion of the Inferred Mineral Resources for the
MMGP can be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with further exploration work.
The MMGP’s geology and mineralisation are well understood. Detailed logging of all drill holes together with excellent mine
geological documentation undertaken during the mining at Westralia, Jupiter and Transvaal in the 1990s provides Dacian
Gold with a high level of confidence it understands the lithologies and mineralisation characteristics of the mines that comprise
the MMGP.
The Company confirms that all material assumptions underpinning the Production Target and Forecast Financial Information
contained in the Company’s ASX announcement released on 21 November 2016 continue to apply and have not materially
changed.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
MMGP Feasibility Study
Mining / Ore Reserves
The initial Ore Reserve for the MMGP is 18.6Mt @ 2.0g/t
Au for 1.2Moz over an initial mining and treatment
period of 8 years. Table 1 is a summary of the MMGP
Ore Reserve.
The MMGP is essentially a large underground mining
complex at Westralia and a single large open pit at
Jupiter, both feeding a new 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment
facility. Of the initial Ore Reserve, Jupiter contributes
approximately 80% of the tonnage feed to the treatment
plant for 54% of the ounces. Correspondingly, of the
initial Ore Reserve, the underground mines contribute
46% of the ounces to the treatment plant and only 20%
of the tonnage.
Given the high-grade and high-margin nature of the
Westralia Mine Area ores, all material mined from the
Beresford and Allanson underground mines is prioritised
as early production sources in the mining and treatment
schedules in order to maximise the cash-margin from the
early stage mining at Mt Morgans.
The Feasibility Study was managed by Dacian Gold
with several well-regarded mining consultants assisting
in the estimation of Ore Reserves, including Orelogy
Consulting Pty Ltd, Entech Pty Ltd, Peter O’Bryan &
Associates, Groundwater Resource Management Pty Ltd
and Blueprint Environmental Strategies. GR Engineering
Services Ltd completed all infrastructure designs and
costings including the 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment facility.
The MMGP Feasibility Study confirms a technically
and economically feasible gold project beginning its
life with an initial Ore Reserve of 18.6Mt @ 2.0g/t Au
for 1.2Moz over an 8 year period with an estimated
average AISC of A$1,039/oz (US$779/oz).
Key outcomes from the Feasibility Study include:
• 3.8Mt @ 4.5g/t Au for 557Koz is mined from
underground mines of which 492Koz is mined from
the Westralia Mine Area (Beresford and Allanson)
at an estimated AISC of A$837/oz (US$628/oz);
• 14.8Mt @ 1.4 g/t Au for 643Koz is mined from
a single open pit, 1.8km long, up to 650m wide
and 220m deep in the Jupiter Mine Area at an
estimated AISC of A$1,193/oz (US$895/oz);
•
Infrastructure capital costs of A$172M (US$129M)
which were subsequently reduced to A$149M;
• Mine-establishment capital costs of A$48M
(US$36M) at Beresford, Allanson and the Jupiter
open pit so the mines can deliver high grade
stocks to the ROM pad ahead of Q1 CY2018
commissioning of the 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment facility;
The Feasibility Study production schedule delivers
171Koz in year 1, 224Koz in year 2, 196Koz in
year 3 and 152Koz in year 4 as the impact of the
high-grade high-margin Westralia Mine Area ores
reduces with the depletion of its initial Ore Reserve;
The low-cost nature of the preferentially mined high-
grade ores from the Westralia Mine Area provides
a Project payback period of less than 21 months
using a $A1,600/oz (US$1,200/oz) gold price;
and
The initial Ore Reserve period to payback period
ratio of 4.3 confirms the MMGP as a new, high
quality Australian mid-tier gold production centre.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Westralia Mine
Jupiter Mine
The Westralia Mine Area comprises the Beresford and
Allanson underground mines, both of which lie beneath
the historic 900,000 ounce Westralia open pit, and both
of which contain the down dip-continuation of those lodes
mined in the historic open pit (see Figure 7).
The Jupiter Mine Area is a single large open pit measuring
1.8km long, up to 650m wide and up to 220m deep (see
Figure 9). The initial Ore Reserve at Jupiter is 14.8Mt
@ 1.4g/t Au for 643,000 ounces and with an average
strip ratio of 7.5 over its 8 year mine life.
Beresford’s initial Ore Reserve is 2.4Mt @ 4.2g/t Au for
331,000 ounces which is to be mined at an estimated
AISC of A$845/oz (US$634/oz), whereas the Allanson
initial Ore Reserve of 0.9Mt @ 5.7g/t Au for 162,000
ounces has a corresponding estimated AISC of A$819/
oz (US$614/oz).
The three closely-spaced gold deposits that are mined
within the single 1.8km long Jupiter open pit are
Doublejay, Heffernans and Ganymede. Each of the
three deposits can be mined and scheduled separately
and have been assumed for the Feasibility Study to follow
the production schedule:
The Transvaal Ore Reserve of 0.5Mt @ 3.9g/t Au for
65Koz, mines ore that lies beneath the previously mined
open pit and underground mine. The estimated AISC
is A$1,074/oz (US$806/oz) and is scheduled for
commencement of mining in 2020.
• Heffernans: 323Koz mined at an estimated AISC of
A$1,108 (US$831/oz);
• Doublejay: 268Koz mined at an estimated AISC of
A$1,241 (US$931/oz); and
• Ganymede: 52Koz mined at an estimated AISC of
A$1,485 (US$1,114/oz).

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Processing
Over 100 cyanide-leach tests on top of extensive
comminution and gravity recovery tests of ores from
Beresford, Allanson and Jupiter have determined an
average expected recovery of 90.7% for the new
2.5Mtpa MMGP processing facility. This compares
favourably with the historic recovery achieved from the
old Mt Morgans CIP/CIL treatment plant (since removed)
which recorded a recovery of 91.4% from a 10 year
treatment history during the 1990s that processed over
10 million tonnes of ore and produced over 740,000
ounces of gold.
The main ore feed sources for the historic treatment facility
during the 1990s at Mt Morgans were Westralia, Jupiter
and Transvaal. The main ore feed sources for the newly
proposed 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment plant at the MMGP
is also Westralia (Beresford and Allanson), Jupiter and
Transvaal.
The proposed process design for the new plant
incorporates an SABC configuration (primary crush,
SAG mill, pebble crush and ball mill, see Figure 10
and compare with Figure 3) which is similar to the
configuration used during the 1990s at Mt Morgans.
The crushing and milling of ores is designed to produce a
P80 passing 106 microns. The MMGP ores exhibit coarse
gold able to be recovered using gravity concentrators.
Leach residence time will be 28 hours. Gold doré will
be smelted on site and transported to the refinery prior
to sale.
The process flowsheet for the new 2.5Mtpa CIL treatment
facility at the MMGP is similar to many other treatment
plants seen throughout the Western Australian gold fields.
Treatment costs are estimated at A$17.88 per tonne of
ore processed.
For the Feasibility Study, power was to be provided by a
diesel-fuelled 20MW power station built close to the site
of the treatment plant near to the Jupiter open pit mine. It
is anticipated the power station will be constructed under
a build-own-operate arrangement. Dacian Gold has
since determined gas-fired power as the preferred power
solution at Mt Morgans.
A breakdown of ore mined and ounces produced over
the initial 8 year Ore Reserve, by year, is shown in Table
2.

Project Permitting and Scheduling
The original estimated capital cost for all MMGP
infrastructure was A$172M (US$129M). As noted
above, this capital cost has now been reduced to
A$149M after identifying several capital savings from
areas including the treatment plant and the second-
hand accommodation village.
All regulatory approvals required to commence mining
and construction at the MMGP are in place. Table 3 is
a project schedule showing key deliverables leading to
gold production in Q1 CY2018.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
MMGP Expansion Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS)
Reported at the same time as the MMGP Feasibility Study
on 21 November 2016, the Company also released
the results of the MMGP expansion PFS assessing the
potential impact of expanding the Westralia Mine Area.
The expansion PFS does not include any changes to the
mining of the Jupiter and Transvaal Ore Reserves. Key
outcomes from the expansion PFS include:
•
•
The MMGP production may increase from an Ore
Reserve of 18.6Mt @ 2.0g/t Au for 1.2 million
ounces to 21.4Mt @ 2.4 g/t Au for 1.7 million
ounces;
The corresponding MMGP Ore Reserve AISC
may improve from A$1,039/oz (US$779/oz) in
the current Feasibility Study to a possible AISC of
A$970-975/oz (US$730-735/oz);
• A potential increase of the Westralia Mine Area
Ore Reserve of 492,000 ounces at an estimated
AISC of A$837/oz (US$628/oz) to 938,000
ounces at a possible AISC of A$795-805/oz
(US$595-605/oz);
• A potential average gold production of 197,000
ounces per annum for the first 7 years;
•
The mine life increases from 8 years in Ore Reserve
to potentially 9 years; and
• An assumed additional capital expenditure
of approximately $3 million to increase the
capacity of the tailings storage facility. No other
infrastructure, material changes to permitting
or financing requirements are assumed to be
necessary for the PFS.
The initial Ore Reserves of the Westralia Mine Area sit
along strike, above, and are geologically continuous
with an Inferred Mineral Resource of 3.5Mt @ 6.5g/t Au
for 715,000 ounces.
By applying the same mine design parameters used in
estimating the Westralia Mine Area Ore Reserves to
the contiguous Inferred Mineral Resource, it shows the
potential for an increased production scenario of the
MMGP to 21.4Mt @ 2.4g/t Au for 1.7 million ounces.
The potential future expanded production profile from
1.2 million ounces of Ore Reserves to 1.7 million ounces
as determined from the expansion PFS, accounts for a
38% increase in ounces. Significantly, the 1.7 million
ounces remains underpinned by 73% high confidence
Ore Reserves, and assumes a successful upgrade and
conversion of the lower confidence Mineral Resources at
depth.
No material changes to the Westralia mineralisation
is anticipated at depth, and the potential AISC of the
expanded MMGP potential production profile improves
from A$1,039/oz in the Ore Reserve to A$970-975/
oz (US$730-735/oz), in the case of the expansion PFS.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Expansion PFS – Mining
The individual production sources for the potential
1.7 million ounces considered in the expansion PFS
is shown in Table 4. The only change from the Ore
Reserve production sources described above under the
MMGP Feasibility Study section is from the Beresford
and Allanson underground mines. This expansion PFS
does not contain any material from the Jupiter Mine Area
MMGP Expansion PFS Mining Summary
and the Transvaal underground mine additional to the
defined Ore Reserves.
Figure 11 shows the extent of the possible production
of the Beresford and Allanson underground mines,
considered in the PFS.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
EXPLORATION AND DRILLING
Cameron Well Prospect
The Cameron Well Prospect is a large and high-quality
gold target located only 9km north-west from where the
Company is building a new 2.5Mtpa treatment facility
(see Figure 2). Since the mid-1990s, when minor
exploration identified shallow gold mineralisation, there
has been negligible exploration undertaken at Cameron
Well.
Dacian Gold’s first exploration campaign into the Cameron
Well area was a 133-hole, wide-spaced reconnaissance
drilling program (see ASX release 1 September 2016).
Since then the Company has completed an additional
722 aircore/RAB drill holes (see ASX releases of 1 May
2017 and 21 June 2017).
Dacian Gold’s exploration drilling has confirmed an
extensive zone of mineralisation and anomalism within
the near-surface oxide material over an area in excess
of 6km² at Cameron Well. The drilling completed by
Dacian Gold is a combination of aircore and RAB
drilling, which is designed to drill through the near-
surface oxide material without drilling into fresh rock.
Given the general reconnaissance nature of aircore and
RAB drilling, much of Dacian Gold’s exploration drilling
was initially completed on a 100m x 100m drilling grid
or a broader 200m x 100m drill pattern.
Following Dacian Gold’s recognition of outcropping
and mineralised syenite centrally located within a 1.1km
diameter magnetic complex (named the Cameron Well
Syenite Complex - see ASX announcement 7 February
2017), it has completed a 50m x 50m infill drilling grid
over the magnetic complex.
In total, Dacian Gold has now drilled 855 aircore/RAB
drill holes for a total of 34,359m; the average drill hole
depth (or depth of oxidised material at surface) is 40m.
The large-scale +6km² oxide gold anomaly at Cameron
Well defined by the 855 drill holes completed by Dacian
Gold is shown in plan view in Figure 12.
Figure 12: The Cameron Well Prospect showing the +6km² Oxide Gold Anomaly which contains
the circular Cameron Well Syenite Complex (labelled) now drilled to 50m x 50m drill-centres using
aircore/RAB drilling (highlighted by grey box). The Oxide Gold Anomaly is based on Total Gold
intersected in the broad-spaced reconnaissance aircore/RAB drilling.
16
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
There is no Mineral Resource associated with the
Cameron Well Prospect, however, given the extensive
nature of near-surface mineralisation and anomalism
the Company has identified, it is optimistic that there is
excellent potential for the discovery of both near-surface
oxide and deeper fresh rock-hosted gold mineralisation.
Clearly, any new Mineral Resource discovery at Cameron
Well has the potential to provide a material benefit to the
MMGP.
Key outcomes returned from the aircore/RAB drill holes
drilled during the FY2017 year include:
• Numerous mineralised and highly anomalous
intersections were returned;
•
•
The syenite that is centrally located within the
Cameron Well Syenite Complex is larger than the
mineralised Heffernans syenite at Jupiter;
Four bedrock targets identified within the Cameron
Well Syenite Complex are ready for immediate
drill testing, including a 1.5km long gold-bearing
structure; and
• Much of the magnetically altered rocks within the
Cameron Well Syenite Complex are resistive to
weathering which may be due to the silicification
effects associated with gold mineralisation.
Table 5 lists several of the mineralised intersections
returned from the 50m x 50m drilling within the Cameron
Well Syenite Complex. Figure 13 shows the location of
several of the intersections (see also ASX releases of 1
May 2017 and 21 June 2017). The widespread extent
of mineralised intersections from within the Cameron
Well Syenite Complex is clearly evident in Figure 13.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Figure 13 also shows the centrally located syenite body
within the core of the Cameron Well Syenite Complex.
The syenite body measures 500m x 200m in size with
approximately half of this dimension outcropping and
containing mineralised quartz veins assaying up to
12.1g/t Au (see ASX release of 7 February 2017). The
Cameron Well syenite is physically similar in appearance
and approximately twice the size of the mineralised
Heffernans syenite at Jupiter, located 10km to the south-
east.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Westralia Exploration Activity
In order to accurately place the initial mine development
for the planned stopes into the upper sections of the
Beresford orebody, Dacian Gold completed 24 surface
diamond drill holes in the second quarter of CY2017
(see ASX release 15 May 2017).

•
The hangingwall and central BIFs are the better
mineralised lode structures;
The two high grade shoot directions are steep (ca.
60 degrees) south and flat (ca. 20 degrees) to the
north; and
Numerous high-grade results were received from the
drilling program confirming:
•
The extensive nature of gold mineralisation within
banded iron formation (BIF) units at Beresford;
• Additional and potentially early mining opportunities
exist in the upper part of the Beresford mine with
high grade intersections reported outside the Ore
Reserve (see Table 6 and Figure 14).

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Europa
The previously undrilled Europa magnetic anomaly, lying
immediately south-east of the planned Doublejay sub-pit
at Jupiter, was drill tested with three diamond drill holes
early in the 2017 financial year. Two of the drill holes
intersected mineralisation with 16JUDD404 returning
4.5m @ 6.7g/t Au from 475m and 16JUDD405 returned
4.2m @ 1.7g/t Au from 297.8m with sheared basalt.
Visible gold in quartz veining within syenite was evident
in the 16JUDD404 intersection (see ASX announcement
10 October 2016).
Callisto
Dacian Gold completed lake diamond drilling at the
Callisto Prospect located 7km south of the Jupiter mine
and 7km west of the 8 million ounce Wallaby gold mine
late in the 2016 calendar year. Three lake diamond drill
holes were drilled using specialist lake drilling equipment
at Callisto for 2,285m (see ASX announcement 10
October 2016).
The Callisto Prospect is a large pipe-like and unexplained
strong magnetic anomaly measuring 1,200m long by
800m. It has a classic “donut” style magnetic anomaly
analogous to the large Wallaby gold mine, 7km to the
east.
Whilst minor intervals of the magnetic rocks that were
similar in magnetic intensity to that targeted were
intersected by the Dacian Gold drilling, the large body
of magnetic rocks that were considered to account for the
magnetic anomaly, were not intersected. The Company
interprets the large magnetic body to lie at a depth in
excess of 700m below surface, beneath that tested by
the three diamond drill holes completed.
Drill hole 16CADD001 did intersect a significant zone
of sericite-silica-albite alteration over 106m width (true
width unknown) at a depth of around 220m below
surface. Abundant extensional quartz veins and minor
pyrite / pyrrhotite developed was seen in the drill core.
Minor, sub-1 gram gold intersections, were observed in
places throughout the broad alteration zone.
The combination of a major gold-bearing structure and
alteration zone with the presence of the targeted magnetic
rocks (albeit at narrower than targeted intervals),
confirms the veracity of the Callisto target. The Company
will assess all of the geological and geophysical data
collected from the three diamond drill holes, with a view
of recommencing exploration at Callisto in the 2017
calendar year.

Since the date of the 2016 MROR Statement, the Ore
Reserve estimates for the Mount Morgans Gold Project
have increased from 28,000 tonnes at 9.2 g/t Au for
8,000 ounces to 18,585,000 tonnes at 2.0 g/t Au for
1,200,000 ounces (refer ASX release 21 November
2016).
The change in Ore Reserves between the 2016 and 2017
MROR Statements was due to the completion of extensive
resource definition drilling programs at the respective
deposits that have significantly increased the confidence
of the Mineral Resource estimates and completion of the
Mount Morgans Gold Project Feasibility Study, resulting
in initial Ore Reserves estimated at the Company’s 100%
owned Westralia, Transvaal and Jupiter deposits.
The Craic deposit was not included in the Feasibility
Study and was removed from the Ore Reserve and is
therefore not included in the 2017 MROR Statement.
The initial Westralia underground Ore Reserve was
estimated at 3,315,000 tonnes at 4.6 g/t Au for 493,000
ounces (refer ASX release 21 November 2016) which is
comprised of the Allanson and Beresford underground
mines.
The initial Jupiter open pit Ore Reserve was estimated at
14,751,000 tonnes at 1.4g/t Au for 643,000 ounces
(refer ASX release 21 November 2016).
The initial Transvaal underground Ore Reserve was
estimated at 518,000 tonnes at 3.9 g/t Au for 65,000
ounces (refer ASX release 21 November 2016).

STATEMENT
GOVERNANCE
Dacian Gold maintains strong governance and internal
controls in respect of its estimates of Mineral Resources
and Ore Reserves and the estimation process.
Dacian Gold ensures its sampling techniques, data
collection, data veracity and the application of the
collected data is at a high level of industry standard.
Contract RC and diamond drilling with QA/QC controls
approved by Dacian Gold are used routinely. All
completed holes are subject to downhole gyro or EMS
surveys and collar coordinates surveyed with DGPS.
All drill holes are logged by Dacian Gold geologists.
Diamond core is oriented and photographed. Dacian
Gold employs field QC procedures, including addition
of standards, blanks and duplicates ahead of assaying
which is undertaken using industry standards including
fire assay at Intertek and Bureau Veritas laboratories in
Perth and Kalgoorlie.
Assay data is continually validated and stored in DataShed.
Geological models and wireframes are built using careful
geological documentation and interpretations, all of
which are validated by peer review. Resource estimation
is undertaken by independent consultants and reported
under JORC 2012. Estimation techniques are industry
standard and include block modelling using Ordinary
Kriging. Application of other parameters including cut
off grades, top cuts and classification are all dependent
on the style and nature of mineralisation being assessed.
Ore Reserve estimation is overseen by in-house mining
engineers using third party consultants to complete
feasibility studies in mining, metallurgical, geotechnical,
environmental and social matters. Results are verified
by independent third party ore reserve specialist
consultancies.

Summary of Activities
Following the release of the MMGP Feasibility Study (see ASX announcement 21 November 2016), the Board approved
project construction in late 2016. At 30 June 2017, the Group was approximately 9 months away from first gold
production at the MMGP project.
Total capital costs to develop the MMGP project is $A197M including A$107M dedicated to the construction of a
2.5Mtpa CIL treatment facility currently under construction. At 30 June 2017, early stage progress had been made on
construction of the treatment plant, the 410 person permanent accommodation village and the Westralia Mine
Services Area. Underground mining at Beresford had also commenced.
As announced on 21 December 2016, the Group entered into a A$150M Syndicated Facility Agreement (Facility) with
Westpac Banking Corporation, Australia New Zealand Banking Group Ltd and BNP Paribas to fund the development
of the MMGP project.
During the period, the Group entered into its first gold forward sales contracts. A total of 51,999oz were forward sold
at an average price of A$1,782/oz. Contract delivery dates are across the 12 month period to 30 June 2020.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Short Term Incentive Payments
The Board may, at its sole discretion, set the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for the Executive Directors or other
Executive Officers. The KPIs are chosen to align the reward of the individual Executives to the strategy and performance
of the Company.
Performance objectives, which may be financial or non-financial, or a combination of both, are determined by the
Board.
No Short Term incentives are payable to Executives where it is considered that the actual performance has fallen below
the minimum requirement.
Following a performance evaluation process in respect of the 12-month period ended 31 December 2016, Short Term
incentive payments were made to Executives.
The Executive Chairman sets the KPIs for other members of staff, monitors actual performance and may recommend
payment of short term bonuses to certain employees to the Board for approval.
Shareholding Qualifications
The Directors are not required to hold any shares in Dacian Gold under the terms of the Company’s constitution.
Consequences of Company Performance on Shareholder Wealth
In considering the Company’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Board provide the following
indices in respect of the current financial year and previous financial years:
Loss for the year attributable to shareholders
$18,857,914
$21,832,884
$8,048,428
$5,620,640

As an exploration and development Company with its major asset currently under construction, the Board does
not consider the loss attributable to shareholders as one of the performance indicators when implementing Short
Term Incentive Payments. The Board considers that the success of exploration and feasibility programs, safety and
environmental performance, the securing of funding arrangements, the commencement of construction and responsible
management of cash resources and the Company’s other assets are more appropriate performance indicators to assess
the performance of management.

Independent Auditor’s Report
to the Members of Dacian Gold Limited
Report on the audit of the financial report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Dacian Gold Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries
(the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017,
the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated
statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended,
and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting
policies, and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the
Corporations Act 2001, including:
a Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its
performance for the year ended on that date; and
b Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities
under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the
independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the
Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional
Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have
also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance
in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the
context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we
do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Key audit matter
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Carrying Value of the provision for rehabilitation,
Note 1(o) and Note 16.
The Group recognised a rehabilitation provision of
$7,846,408 as at 30 June 2017 relating to the Mount
Morgan’s Gold Project (MMGP).
As disclosed in Note 1(o), the calculation of the
provision requires judgement in estimating the future
cost and expected timing of incurring these costs.
The Group reviews its rehabilitation calculations
annually or as new information becomes available.
Changes in estimate and underlying assumptions are
reviewed annually including changes to the mining
operations, local regulations and rehabilitation
requirements.
The process for determining the rehabilitation
provision involves significant management judgement
and subjectivity of the underlying assumptions in
determining the rehabilitation provision as the MMGP
transitions from an exploration asset to a
development asset.
This area is a key audit matter due to the
judgemental nature of the estimates and assumptions
used in the rehabilitation provision assessment.
Our procedures included, amongst others:
Obtaining an understanding of management’s
process for determining the rehabilitation
provision;
Evaluating the reasonableness of management’s
estimates and judgements to available supporting
documentation, including assessing estimates and
judgements determined by management experts;
Assessing the Group’s legal obligations with
respect to the rehabilitation requirements in
accordance with the Mining Rehabilitation Fund
2012 and the associated effect on the estimated
costs;
Recalculating the rehabilitation provision
calculation to check for mathematical accuracy;
and
Reviewing the appropriateness of the related
disclosures within the financial statements.
Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon
The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not
include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors’ for the Financial Report
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives
a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act
2001 and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the
preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using
the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or
to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a
71

material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at:
http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1.pdf. This description forms part of our
auditor’s report.
Report on the Remuneration Report
Opinion on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in page 31 to 37 of the directors’ report for the
year ended 30 June 2017.
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Dacian Gold Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2017,
complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
Responsibilities
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.
