At the Colosseum Gold Mine in California, a significant mineral resource was defined and REE experts confirmed a genetic link to the Mountain Pass Rare Earth Mine, increasing the prospectivity of discovering a major rare earth deposit. 2 ANNUAL REPORT 2022 Location of Dateline’s US assets drill program, the Company announced a Mineral Resource of 20.9Mt at 1.2g/t Au for 813,000 ounces of gold. The Colosseum Project is also prospective for rare earths, with the Company’s experts confirming the geology at Colosseum is genetically related to the nearby Mountain Pass Rare Earth Mine, the highest-grade rare earth mine globally. A gravity survey is planned to prioritise drill targets that are planned to be drilled during calendar 2022. The Gold Links Project, located in Gunnison County, Colorado has a long, rich history of high-grade gold mining over the past century. Multiple high-grade veins are associated with the historical mine workings, with grades of 15-30g/t Au common during the main mining period from 1896-1942. During the reporting period, the Company commenced ore mining and gold production from the Gold Links operation. Ore is mined and transported to the Lucky Strike mill for processing into gold concentrate. During the reporting period, the Company transitioned to an owner operated mining fleet and commenced the expansion of the Lucky Strike mill and flotation plant to 250tpd throughput. The Company also owns the Colosseum Gold Mine, located in California. The mine was purchased from Barrick in 2021 and had no exploration from when the mine closed in 1993 through to the sale date. After compiling the data into a digital relational database and completing a confirmatory 3 DATELINE RESOURCES Review of Operations Gold Links Gold Project (DTR 100%) During the reporting period, the Company made the decision to transition to an owner operated mining and exploration fleet at Gold Links. An agreement with Komatsu provided for new and near new equipment to be supplied to site. A new owner operated underground excavator was purchased during the reporting period and was delivered in late August 2022. Underground exploration drilling recommenced in the September quarter. Gold concentrate is produced at Lucky Strike, with the Company entering into an agreement with IXM International, for offtake of any concentrate produced for sale. Gold Links Plans – Current Year With the move to owner operated mining and exploration, the Company has increased flexibility with regards to opening new development areas and drill testing various vein sets. It is expected that development and exploration will be ongoing, providing a buffer of ore for future ore development. Dateline owns approximately 2,000 acres of freehold land in Gunnison County, Colorado USA. This region is part of the ‘Gold Brick District’ of the Colorado Mineral Belt. Since acquiring the permitted Gold Links Mine in 2016, the Company has consolidated ownership of additional mining and exploration ground in the region and now owns 100% of six permitted gold mines (Gold Links, Upper Gold Links Sacramento, Raymond, Carter and the Lucky Strike) and a permitted mill (Lucky Strike), collectively known as the Gold Links Project. During the reporting period, the Company’s focus has been on developing access to deeper section of the 2150 vein which is located in the original Gold Links mine. A mining contractor was engaged and undertook ~600 metres of development to allow underground drilling of the 2150 and West veins. The drilling program commenced in July 2021 and is ongoing using our own company purchased drill rig and company employed drillers. At the end of 2021, the Company made the Development Decision to commence ore mining from Gold Links. Ore was initially mined at a rate of between 50-100tpd to match the existing capacity of the Lucky Strike mill. Commissioning of the mill was initially undertaken at 50-80tpd, whilst during the reporting period, the Company made the decision to increase the circuit to 250tpd. The installation and commissioning of the 250tpd circuit was ongoing at the end of the reporting period. 4 ANNUAL REPORT 2022 Review of Operations Colosseum Gold Mine (DTR 100%) In March 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with LAC Minerals (USA) LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Barrick Gold Corporation to acquire the Colosseum Gold Mine, located in San Bernadino County, California. Colosseum was originally discovered in the early 1970’s, with production of ~344,000 ounces of gold between 1988 and 1993 from two open pits. At the time of cessation of activities, the gold price was at a cyclical low below $350/oz. No exploration has been undertaken at site over the past 25 years. Geology and Mining of the Breccia Pipes The development of the breccia pipes at Colosseum is interpreted to have occurred ~100my ago with the intrusion of felsic magma into the Pre-Cambrian sedimentary basement rocks. This event is regionally extensive with felsic dyke outcrops exposed over a distance of 10km between Colosseum and the Mountain Pass Rare Earth Mine to the southeast. The West and East breccia pipes have a tear-like appearance in plan view, each measuring ~800ft x 400ft. Both pipes are connected by a narrow dyke4. The East pipe has a relatively consistent grade vertically of ~1.3g/t Au, whereas the West pipe has more variability, with grades ranging from ~2.0g/t Au up to 4.4g/t Au. Mineral Resource Estimate Dateline compiled many technical reports, maps and sections for the Colosseum Gold Mine into a digital relational database, the first time this had ever been completed. A drill program was completed during the reporting period, designed to validate the drilling database and identify areas of mineralisation outside of the mineral resource envelope. The drill program was successful and enabled the Company to confirm a Mineral Resource estimate of 20.9Mt at 1.2g/t Au for 813,000 ounces of gold. This initial mineral resource is in line with internal expectations, given a 1.1Moz resource was defined pre- mining in the 1980’s and 344,000 oz of gold was produced. The validation drill program intersected several high-grade zones that are outside of the published mineral resource. These intersections included: • 100.6m @ 4.16g/t Au from 79.24m in CM22-05 confirmed with final assay results including ° ° ° 19.81 metres of 5.19g/t Au from 79.24 metres 3.05 metres of 13.78g/t Au from 80.77 metres 16.8 metres of 6.76 g/t Au from 112.78 metres 5 DATELINE RESOURCES Review of Operations ° ° 7.6 metres of 12.74 g/t Au from 132.59 metres 4.6 metres of 7.10g/t Au from 158.50 metres • 10.67m @ 13.71g/t Au from 18.29m in CM22-04 including ° 3.05 metres of 42.88g/t Au from 18.29 metres • 1.52m of 2.70g/t Au from 70.10 metres • 4.57m @ 6.96g/t Au from 18.29m in CM22-03 The drilling database includes two diamond drill holes (DDH-1 and DDH-2), drilled in 1972 by Draco Mines, with both drilled to ~3,000 feet (~1,000m). Both drillholes targeted a porphyry molybdenum deposit thought to lie beneath the pipes and not gold. Draco Mines intersected the high grade sedimentary breccia units at 2,600 feet (790m) below the surface. The Company believes that excellent potential remains to significantly expand the mineral resource at Colosseum and is planning further diamond drilling to test the depth extents of mineralisation. Rare Earth Mineralisation As part of the data compilation for Colosseum, Dateline identified several unexplained radiometric anomalies in historic USGS datasets. Given that Colosseum is located ~10km along strike to the north of the Mountain Pass Rare Earth mine, the highest-grade rare earth mine globally, further investigations were undertaken with regards to the rare earth potential of the project. The Company engaged US rare earth experts, Anthony Mariano PhD and Tony Mariano Jnr, to advise on the potential for rare earth mineralisation at Colosseum. Mapping and sampling by the experts identified a number of fenite dykes over an area of 1.6km at Colosseum. The majority of the samples assayed were anomalous for rare earths, with the REE experts opining that they believe there is potential for a significant carbonatite system at Colosseum. A gravity survey was completed post the reporting period to prioritise targets for drilling during 2022. 6 ANNUAL REPORT 2022 Review of Operations “ The Colosseum Project is also prospective for rare earths, with the Company’s experts confirming the geology at Colosseum is genetically related to the nearby Mountain Pass Rare Earth Mine, the highest- grade rare earth mine globally. 7 DATELINE RESOURCES DIRECTORS’ REPORT DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 The Directors submit their report on the consolidated entity (“the Group”), which consists of Dateline Resources Limited (the “Company” or “Dateline”) and the entities it controlled during the financial year ended 30 June 2022. 1.

The Company is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange Limited (“ASX”). The Company is a for-profit entity for the purposes of preparing the financial statements. The address of its registered office and principal place of business is disclosed in the Corporate Directory of the annual report. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ Report. 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently in these financial statements. (a) Statement of compliance The financial report is a general-purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) (including Australian Interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report of the Group also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board. The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 4 October 2022. (b) Basis of measurement The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis unless otherwise stated. (c) Principles of consolidation Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the group. (d) Foreign currency transactions (i) Functional and presentation currency Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Dateline Resources Limited, Dateline Fiji Pty Limited and Gunnison Gold Pty Limited’s functional and presentation currency. DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 (ii) Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in profit or loss. They are deferred in equity if they relate to qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges or are attributable to part of the net investment in a foreign operation. Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are presented in the income statement, within finance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement on a net basis within other income or other expenses. (e) Revenue recognition Revenue from contracts with customers Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the consolidated entity is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the consolidated entity: identifies the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract; determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised. Variable consideration within the transaction price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the customer such as discounts, rebates and refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from the customer and any other contingent events. Such estimates are determined using either the 'expected value' or 'most likely amount' method. The measurement of variable consideration is subject to a constraining principle whereby revenue will only be recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. The measurement constraint continues until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Amounts received that are subject to the constraining principle are recognised as a refund liability. Sale of goods is recognised at the point of sale, which is where the customer has taken delivery of the goods, the risks and rewards are transferred to the customer and there is a valid sales contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of sales returns and trade discounts. Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.

These and together with other amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations commencing from 1 July 2021 did not result in any material adjustments to the amounts recognised or disclosures in the financial report. Going concern (g) The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and liabilities in the normal course of business. During the year, the consolidated entity incurred a net loss of $14,359,734 (2021: $5,894,399 loss) a net cash outflow of $5,156,032 (2021: $6,933,707 inflow) and net cash out flow from operations of $10,941,610 (2021: $2,313,312). As at 30 June 2022, the consolidated entity also had a working capital deficit of $12,159,417 (2021: surplus $7,042,953). The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Group being able to generate sufficient funds to satisfy exploration commitments and working capital requirements. The Company has taken steps to ensure that it has adequate working capital to not only satisfy existing commitments but to also future expenditure required to meet its objectives. These include • A capital raising in July 2021 of $4,100,000, • The finalisation in January 2022 of a US$3,000,000 (approximately A$4,350,000) loan facility at attractive rates which is repayable over a 10-year period. • A capital raising in April 2022 of $243,100 • A capital raising in June 2022 of $4,305,000 • A capital raising in August 2022 of $4,406,750 • The consolidated entity’s projected cash flow analysis supporting its ability to meet its financial obligations, whereby we will control expenditure accordingly to our level of cash inflows. • Mining and milling which will continue at Gunnison and Sooner Lucky Strike and gold concentrate will be sold. • Additional funding that may be raised through various transactions including future fundraising from financial institutions and the market; and Issuing equity to settle future liabilities, if appropriate. • As a result of the above, the Company is very well placed to execute its corporate strategy and the directors believe that the going concern basis for the preparation of the financial report of the Group is appropriate. Should the Company not be able to execute its corporate strategy there will be a material uncertainty that exists relating to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustment has been made in relation to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the consolidated entity not continue as a going concern. Reverse Acquisition Accounting (h) Dateline Resources Limited is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. Dateline Resources Limited completed the legal acquisition of Dateline Fiji Pty Limited on 3rd October 2013. Under the principles of AASB 3 Business Combinations Dateline Fiji Pty Limited was deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes. Therefore, the transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition under AASB3. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements of Dateline Resources Limited have been prepared as a continuation of the consolidated financial statements of Dateline Fiji Pty Limited. DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 (i) Income tax Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income tax is recognised except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit; and in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future and the group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet 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. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities shall be offset only if: (j) there is a legally enforceable right to set-off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and (ii) the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either: (a) the same taxable entity; or (b) different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. (i) Other taxes Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are recognised net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and receivables and payables are stated with amounts of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position. Commitments or contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk or changes in value, and bank overdrafts. taxation authority.

Items of plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation (see below) and any 24 18 | P a g e 19 | P a g e ANNUAL REPORT 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 Income tax (i) Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income tax is recognised except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit; and in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future and the group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet 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. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities shall be offset only if: (j) (ii) the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation there is a legally enforceable right to set-off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and authority on either: (a) the same taxable entity; or (b) different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. Other taxes (i) Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are recognised net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and receivables and payables are stated with amounts of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position. Commitments or contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority. Cash and cash equivalents (j) Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk or changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Plant and equipment (k) Owned assets Items of plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation (see below) and any impairment losses. 19 | P a g e 25 DATELINE RESOURCES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self- constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a work condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment. When parts of an item of plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components). Subsequent costs The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other costs are recognised in the profit or loss as an expense as incurred. Depreciation Depreciation is charged to the profit or loss using a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of plant and equipment. Plant and equipment 3 years. Office equipment 3 years. Fixtures and fittings 3 years. The estimated useful lives in the current financial year are as follows: - - - - Motor Vehicles 3 years. - Mining equipment 10 years. The residual value, the useful life and the depreciation method applied to an asset are reassessed at least annually. Depreciation is commenced on plant, property and equipment once they are ready for use. (l) Exploration and evaluation Exploration costs are accounted for under the "Area of Interest" method, whereby costs are carried forward provided that rights to tenure of the area of interest are current and either there is a reasonable probability of recoupment through successful development and exploitation or by their sale, or exploration activities in the area have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable mineral reserves and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area are continuing. The ultimate recoupment of costs carried forward in respect of areas of interest still in the exploration or evaluation phases is dependent upon successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas. Exploration & Evaluation Assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. (m) Trade and other payables Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised costs and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. (n) Contributed equity Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 (o) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share shares issued during the year. Diluted earnings per share Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net profit or loss after income tax attributable to members of the Group, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after-income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares. (p) Investments and other financial assets Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the initial measurement, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair value depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on both the business model within which such assets are held and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset unless, an accounting mismatch is being avoided. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or have been transferred and the consolidated entity has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is no reasonable expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, its carrying value is written off. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets not measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Typically, such financial assets will be either: (i) held for trading, where they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the short-term with an intention of making a profit, or a derivative; or (ii) designated as such upon initial recognition where permitted. Fair value movements are recognised in profit or loss. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include equity investments which the consolidated entity intends to hold for the foreseeable future and has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon initial recognition. Impairment of financial assets The consolidated entity recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the consolidated entity's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain. 26 20 | P a g e 21 | P a g e ANNUAL REPORT 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 (o) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net profit or loss after income tax attributable to members of the Group, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.

The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the consolidated entity's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain. 21 | P a g e 27 DATELINE RESOURCES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset's lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate. For financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is recognised within other comprehensive income. In all other cases, the loss allowance is recognised in profit or loss. (q) Share Based Payments Equity-settled and cash-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of cash is determined by reference to the share price. The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions. The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods. The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into consideration the terms and conditions on which the award was granted. The cumulative charge to profit or loss until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: • during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date • multiplied by the expired portion of the vesting period. from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the reporting date. All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid to settle the liability. Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied. If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited. If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a modification. (r) Borrowings (s) Convertible Notes Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position, net of transaction costs. On the issue of the convertible notes the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond and this amount is carried as a non-current liability on the amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or redemption. The increase in the liability due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. The remainder of the proceeds are allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in shareholders equity as a convertible note reserve, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in the subsequent years. The corresponding interest on convertible notes is expensed to profit or loss. (t) Critical accounting estimates and judgments The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The Directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are described in the following notes: (i) Exploration & Evaluation Expenditure The Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation is set out in Note 2(l) above. If, after having capitalised expenditure under this policy, the Directors conclude that the Group is unlikely to recover the expenditure by future exploration or sale, then the relevant capitalised amount will be written off to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. (ii) Discounting The Group has discounted non-interest bearing payables to the vendors of acquired subsidiaries, refer note 13. This discount rate is reviewed annually. 28 22 | P a g e 23 | P a g e ANNUAL REPORT 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited. If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a modification. (r) Borrowings Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. (s) Convertible Notes The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position, net of transaction costs. On the issue of the convertible notes the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond and this amount is carried as a non-current liability on the amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or redemption. The increase in the liability due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. The remainder of the proceeds are allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in shareholders equity as a convertible note reserve, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in the subsequent years. The corresponding interest on convertible notes is expensed to profit or loss. (t) Critical accounting estimates and judgments The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.

Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are described in the following notes: (i) Exploration & Evaluation Expenditure The Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation is set out in Note 2(l) above. If, after having capitalised expenditure under this policy, the Directors conclude that the Group is unlikely to recover the expenditure by future exploration or sale, then the relevant capitalised amount will be written off to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. (ii) Discounting The Group has discounted non-interest bearing payables to the vendors of acquired subsidiaries, refer note 13. This discount rate is reviewed annually. 23 | P a g e 29 DATELINE RESOURCES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 (iii) Share Based Payments The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using the Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. Refer to note 17 for further information. (iv) Lease term The lease term is a significant component in the measurement of both the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Judgement is exercised in determining whether there is reasonable certainty that an option to extend the lease or purchase the underlying asset will be exercised, or an option to terminate the lease will not be exercised, when ascertaining the periods to be included in the lease term. In determining the lease term, all facts and circumstances that create an economical incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option, are considered at the lease commencement date. Factors considered may include the importance of the asset to the consolidated entity's operations; comparison of terms and conditions to prevailing market rates; incurrence of significant penalties; existence of significant leasehold improvements; and the costs and disruption to replace the asset. The consolidated entity reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option, if there is a significant event or significant change in circumstances. (v) Incremental borrowing rate Where the interest rate implicit in a lease cannot be readily determined, an incremental borrowing rate is estimated to discount future lease payments to measure the present value of the lease liability at the lease commencement date. Such a rate is based on what the consolidated entity estimates it would have to pay a third party to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset, with similar terms, security and economic environment (u) Inventory Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value on a 'first in first out' basis. Cost comprises direct materials and delivery costs, direct labour, import duties and other taxes, an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure based on normal operating capacity. Cost is determined on the following basis: (a) (b) (c) Gold and other metals on hand is valued on an average total production cost method Ore stockpiles are valued at the average cost of mining and stockpiling the ore, including haulage A proportion of related depreciation and amortisation charge is included in the cost of inventory the period in which they are incurred. Stock in transit is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises of purchase and delivery costs, net of rebates and discounts received or receivable. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. 30 24 | P a g e 25 | P a g e DATELINE RESOURCES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 (v) Right-of-use assets A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The consolidated entity has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred. (w) Lease Liabilities A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the consolidated entity's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down. (x) Finance costs Finance costs attributable the group’s financial arrangements are capitalised as part of the borrowing and amortised over the term of that borrowing or financial instrument. All other finance costs are expensed in 3 SEGMENT INFORMATION AASB 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance.

The consideration for the issuance of these Convertible Notes is the cancellation/extinguishment by Mr Johnson's of all amounts owing by the Company to Mr Johnson (or his nominee) immediately after the completion of a debt novation agreement which was also presented to and passed by shareholders at the same General Meeting. On 28 May 2021, the Company received from Mr. Johnson a Conversion Notice to covert 865,000 Convertible Notes into 8,650,000 shares at an issue price of $0.10 per share. Mr Johnson converted a further 1,100,000 Convertible Notes to 11,000,000 shares in July 2021 and another 916,992 to 9,619,920 shares in June 2022. This reduced the Convertible Notes outstanding as at 30 June 2022 to $1,008,311 (2021: $2,988,552). The Convertible Note Agreement approved by shareholders at the above meeting, provides for interest to be capitalised annually at a rate of 5% per annum.

The Group uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board of Directors. (a) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as it invests funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is managed by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate deposits.

Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financing loss from defaults. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any provision for losses, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk. All trade and other receivables are due within 30 days and none are past due. (i) Cash and cash equivalents The Group’s primary banker is Commonwealth Bank of Australia (2021 : Commonwealth Bank of Australia).

Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financing loss from defaults. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any provision for losses, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk. All trade and other receivables are due within 30 days and none are past due.

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised financial assets and financial liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and cash flow forecasting. The group's exposure to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period, expressed in Australian Dollars, was as follows: Cash at Bank and short-term bank deposits Financial assets Payables Borrowings SENSITIVITY 30-Jun-22 $ 30-Jun-21 $ 294,953 5,967,154 1,765,758 - (2,678,058) (6,867,350) (14,210,441) (9,091,718) At 30 June 2022, had the Australian dollar weakened by 10% against the US and Fijian dollar, with all other variables being constant, the net assets of the group would have reduced by $1,497,726 (2021: $1,110,213) and loss would have increased by $1,497,726 (2021: $1,110,213). At 30 June 2022, had the Australian dollar strengthened by 10% against the US and Fijian dollar, with all other variables being constant, the net assets of the group would have increased by $1,225,413 (2021: $908,356) and loss would have reduced by $1,225,413 (2021: $908,356). Liquidity risk management Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group’s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by continually monitoring cash reserves and cash flow forecasts to ensure that financial commitments can be met as and when they fall due. The terms of the group’s financial liabilities are detailed in notes 13, 14 and 15.

Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Material Uncertainty Regarding Going Concern We draw attention to Note 2(g) in the financial report, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $14,359,734 during the year ended 30 June 2022 and, as of that date, the current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $12,159,417. As stated in Note 2(g), these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2(g), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. 54 48 | P a g e ANNUAL REPORT 2022 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Share based payments and option valuation Note 17 The Group provides benefits to Directors and others in the form of share based payment transactions, whereby the Directors or others render services and receive shares or the option to purchase shares. These share based payment transactions are classified by the Group as equity settled share based payment transactions. Our procedures included but were not limited to: Considering the design and implementation of controls surrounding review of valuations at the Board level; The accounting for share based payments is a key audit matter because the expense recognised incorporates a judgemental value. Black Scholes model’s include inputs which require judgement. Obtaining agreements for options and limited recourse share purchase loans and assessing the accounting treatment in conjunction with the terms; The share based payment expenses were split between share based payment expenses / reserves or option valuation expenses / reserves, depending on their type as requested by management, however, are all captured under AASB 2 Share Based Payments. Obtaining management or expert valuation using Black Scholes models and supporting the inputs in the calculations to publicly available data; Considering the objectivity, competence and capabilities of any management expert used; Examining the disclosures made in the financial report. Options issued to directors were valued by management using a Black Scholes model, and the vesting periods were determined by the directors. These options were accounted for in the option valuation reserve. Limited recourse share purchase loans, which were accounted for as options under AASB 2 Share Based Payments were valued with the assistance of an expert valuer who also used a Black Scholes model. The limited recourse share purchase loans are within the share based payments reserve. The impact on the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2022 reflected a profit or loss charge of $316,568 to share based payments expense and $346,593 to option valuation expense. 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 2022, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. 55 49 | P a g e DATELINE RESOURCES INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 56 50 | P a g e ANNUAL REPORT 2022 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. REPORT ON THE REMUNERATION REPORT Opinion on the Remuneration Report We have audited the Remuneration Report included in the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2022. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Dateline Resources Limited for the year ended 30 June 2022 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.
