Review of Operations 

The Principal Activities of the year focused on: 

 

 

Identifying and evaluating, ASX listed gold exploration companies with substantial land holdings and or 
resources within established goldfields and or provinces. 
Evaluating the past exploration data, government and research data with the objective of enhancing the value 
the Company’s extensive land holdings in the Pilbara, Yerrida Basin and Eastern Goldfields of Western 
Australia, and the Adelaide Geosyncline and Stuart Shelf of South Australia. 

  Conducting and supporting research at CODES at University of Tasmania, particularly the gold, copper and 
cobalt content of pyrites, that are associated with sediment hosted gold mineralisation in the Pilbara, Yerrida 
Basin of Western Australia and the Tapley Hill formation in South Australia. 

Investment Activities 

The Company embarked on identifying and evaluating investment opportunities by researching 90 ASX listed Australian 
gold explorers with a focus on Australia and particularly Western Australia.  

Companies which had substantial land holdings in established gold fields or provinces, strong experienced 
management and a stable shareholder base were prioritised for further study. This resulted in 7 companies of interest of 
which De Grey Mining Limited was the standout with substantial potential for significant increased resources at a 
modest discovery and evaluation cost per ounce. An investment of $5 million in De Grey resulted in the DGO Gold 
securing a 7% interest along with options that would increase DGO’s interest to 10% on a fully diluted basis. The 
purpose of the funding is to support De Grey’s focus on increasing its gold resources and to conduct research on the 
gold mineralisation in the Pilbara.

Directors’ report 

Sediment Hosted Gold Discovery 

The Company completed comprehensive data compilation and evaluation of its extensive land holdings in Western 
Australia and South Australia including reviews of past exploration data, interpretation of airborne magnetic/ radiometric 
and gravity data, and research of academic literature applicable and government geological survey data. This research 
work has generated substantial targets at this point in the Pilbara, Yerrida Basin, and the Murchison in Western 
Australia. Work is ongoing in South Australia. 

Research and Development 

The Company has continued to conduct its research engagement with CODES at the University of Tasmania. The 
objective of the research is to target the discovery of world class sediment hosted gold, copper and cobalt mineralisation 
in the sedimentary basins of Australia. Detailed sampling of pyrite hosted by sediments is followed by laser ablation 
analysis of the gold copper and cobalt contents of the pyrite. The geological age of the sediments/ basins is also an 
important element in focusing the ongoing research. 

In particular, extensive sampling of favourable sedimentary diamond core has occurred at the Western Australian and 
South Australian central core libraries.

Non-audit services 

Details  of  amounts  paid  or  payable  to  the  auditor  for  non-audit  services  provided  during  the  year  by  the  auditor  are 
outlined in note 27 to the financial statements. 

The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services, during the year, by the auditor (or by another person 
or  firm  on  the  auditor’s  behalf)  is  compatible  with  the  general  standard  of  independence  for  auditors  imposed  by  the 
Corporations Act 2001.  

The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 27 to the financial statements do not compromise 
the external auditor’s independence, based on advice received from the Audit Committee, for the following reasons: 





all  non-audit  services  have  been  reviewed  and  approved  to  ensure  that they  do  not  impact  the  integrity  and
objectivity of the auditor, and 
none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in Code of
Conduct  APES  110  Code  of  Ethics  for  Professional  Accountants  issued  by  the  Accounting  Professional  & 
Ethical  Standards  Board,  including  reviewing  or  auditing  the  auditor’s  own  work,  acting  in  a  management  or 
decision-making  capacity  for  the  company,  acting  as  advocate  for  the  company  or  jointly  sharing  economic 
risks and rewards. 

Auditor’s independence declaration 
The auditor’s independence declaration is included on page 14 of the Annual Report. 

Proceedings on behalf of the company 

No  person  has  applied  for  leave  of  Court  to  bring  proceedings  on  behalf  of  the  Company  or  intervene  in  any 
proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purposes of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all 
or any part of those proceedings. The Company was not a party to any such proceedings during the year.

1.  General information  

DGO Gold Limited (the Company) is a public company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (trading under the 
code  DGO),  incorporated  in  Australia  and  operating  in  Queensland.    DGO  Gold  Limited’s  registered  office  and  its 
principal place of business are as follows:  

Registered office 
L17 41 Exhibition St 
Melbourne Vic 3000 

Principal place of business  
L17 41 Exhibition St 
Melbourne Vic 3000 

The Groups’ principal activity in the course of the financial year was to consider opportunities to acquire or joint venture 
gold  exploration  tenements  with  particular  emphasis  on  gold  based  on  research  undertaken  with  the  University  of 
Tasmania on sediment hosted gold deposits in Australia. 

The consolidated financial statements of DGO Gold Limited and its subsidiary (collectively, the Group) were authorised 
for issue by the Directors on 12 September 2018. 

2.  New accounting standards for application in future periods 
Accounting  standards  issued  by  the  AASB  that  are  not  yet  mandatorily  applicable  to  the  Group,  together  with  an 
assessment  of  the  potential  impact  of  such  pronouncements  on  the  Group  when  adopted  in  future  periods,  are 
discussed below: 

AASB  9:  Financial  Instruments and  associated  amending  standards  (applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods  beginning 
on or after 1 January 2018). 

This standard and its consequential amendments are currently  applicable to  annual reporting periods beginning  on or 
after 1 January 2018. This standard introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets, using a 
single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortised cost or fair value. To be classified and 
measured  at  amortised  cost,  assets  must satisfy  the  business model  test  for  managing  the  financial  assets  and  have 
certain contractual cash flow characteristics. All other financial instrument assets are to be classified and measured at 
fair  value.  This  standard  allows  an  irrevocable  election  on  initial  recognition  to  present  gains  and  losses  on  equity 
instruments  (that  are  not  held-for-trading)  in  other  comprehensive  income,  with  dividends  as  a  return  on  these 
investments being recognised in profit or loss. In addition, those equity instruments measured at fair value through other 
comprehensive income would no longer have to apply any impairment requirements nor would there be any 'recycling' 
of gains or losses through profit or loss on disposal. The accounting for financial liabilities continues to be classified and 
measured in accordance with AASB 139, with one exception, being that the portion of a change of fair value relating to 
the  entity's  own  credit  risk  is  to  be  presented  in  other  comprehensive  income  unless  it  would  create  an  accounting 
mismatch.  

The Group has evaluated the impact adoption of this standard and determined there will be no material impacts in the 
current reporting period. 

The Group anticipates that the investment in De Grey Mining Limited completed on 11 July 2018 will be carried at fair 
value through other comprehensive income. 

AASB 16 Leases 
This standard and its consequential amendments are currently  applicable to  annual reporting periods beginning  on or 
after  1  January  2019.  When  effective,  this  standard  will  replace  the  current  accounting  requirements  applicable  to 
leases  in  AASB  117  Leases  and  related  interpretations.  AASB  16  introduces  a  single  lessee  accounting  model  that 
eliminates the requirement for leases to be classified as operating or finance leases. This means that for all leases, a 
right-to-use asset and a liability will be recognised, with the right-to-use asset being depreciated and the liability being 
unwound in principal and interest components over the life of the lease.   

The  Group  has  evaluated  the  impact  adoption  of  this  standard.    Upon  adoption  of  this  standard,  it  is  the  Group’s 
intention to transition using the modified retrospective approach, where the right-of-use asset is recognised at the date 
of  initial  application  at  an  amount  equal  to  the  lease  liability,  using  the  entity’s  current  incremental  borrowing  rate.  
Comparative figures are not restated.   

Based on the transition approach and the entity’s current leasing arrangements the entity has determined there will be 
no material impacts in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions. 

There  are  no  other  standards  that  are  not  yet  effective  and  that  would  be  expected  to  have  a  material  impact  on  the 
group in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

3.  Significant accounting policies 

Statement of compliance 
The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations 
Act  2001,  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  of  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board’s  other 
authoritative pronouncements.  

The financial statements comprise the consolidated financial statements of the Group. For the purpose of preparing the 
consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.  

The financial statements and notes of the Group also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) 
as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.  

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations 

The Group adopted all new Accounting Standards and Interpretations effective for the year ended 30 June 2018. There 
were no material impacts on the financial statements of the Group as a result of adopting these standards. 

Basis of preparation 
The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for assets classified as held for sale that 
have been measured at fair value. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All 
amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.  

The  following  significant  accounting  policies  have  been  adopted  in  the  preparation  and  presentation  of  the  financial 
report: 

(a)      Basis of consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and controlled by the 
Company (its subsidiary) (referred to as ‘the Group’ in these financial statements). Control is  based on whether 
the  investor  has  power  over  the  investee,  exposure,  or  rights,  to  variable  returns  from  its  involvement  in  the 
investee, and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the returns.  

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated  statement of 
comprehensive  income  from  the  effective  date  of  acquisition  or  up  to  the  effective  date  of  disposal,  as 
appropriate.  

Where  necessary,  adjustments  are  made  to  the  financial  statements  of  subsidiaries  to  bring  their  accounting 
policies into line with those used by other members of the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income 
and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.  

(b)      Going concern 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates that the 
group  will  continue  to  meet  its  commitments  and  can  therefore  continue  normal  business  activities  and  the 
realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. 

Because of the nature of the operations, exploration companies, such as DGO Gold Limited, find it necessary on 
a  regular  basis  to  raise  additional  cash  funds to  fund  future  exploration  and  investment  activity  and  meet  other 
necessary  corporate  expenditure.  At  the  date  of  this  financial  report,  the  ability  of  the  group  to  execute  its 
currently planned exploration and evaluation activities requires the group to raise additional capital  with the next 
18 months.  

DGO  Gold  Limited  successfully  completed  a  capital  raising  in  July  2018  raising  $4,909,190  in  a  1  for  2  non-
renounceable  entitlement  offer  for  ordinary  shares  at  an  offer  price  of  $0.75  with  1  new  option  for  every  new 
shared issued. These options are exercisable at $1 on  or before 31 December 2021. The funding was used to 
subscribe to complete the placement in De Grey Mining.  

The  directors  have  concluded  as  a result  of the  requirement  to  raise  funds  in  the  future  there  exists  a  material 
uncertainty that may cast significant doubt regarding the group's and the Company's ability to continue as a going 
concern  and  therefore,  the  group  and  Company  may  be  unable  to  realise  their  assets  and  discharge  their 
liabilities in the normal course of business. Nevertheless, after taking into account the current financial position of 
the Company, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the group and the  Company will have adequate 
resources  to  fund  its  future  operational  requirements  and  for  these  reasons  they  continue  to  adopt  the  going 
concern basis in preparing the financial report. 

Should  the  Group  be  unable  to  continue  as  a  going  concern,  it  may  be  required  to  realise  its  assets  and 
extinguish its liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated 
in the financial statements.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

This financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded 
asset  amounts  or the  amounts  or  classification  of  liabilities  and  appropriate  disclosures  that  may  be  necessary 
should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern. 

 (c)      Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments 
that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in 
value.   

(d)      Employee benefits 

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long 
service leave, and sick leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being 
measured  reliably.  Liabilities  recognised  in  respect  of  short-term  employee  benefits  are  measured  at  their 
nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. 

The  Group  recognises  a  liability  for  long  service  leave  measured  as  the  present  value  of  expected  future 
payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected 
unit  credit  method.  Consideration  is  given  to  expected  future  wage  and  salary  levels,  experience  of  employee 
departures, and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting 
date on high quality corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the 
estimated future cash outflows.  

(e)       Financial assets 

Available for Sale (AFS) financial assets 
Listed shares held by the Group that are traded in an active market are classified as AFS and are stated at fair 
value. Investments in unlisted shares that are not traded in an active market but that are also classified as AFS 
financial  assets  and  stated  at  fair  value  (when  the  directors consider  that  fair  value  can  be  reliably  measured). 
Gains  and  losses  arising  from  changes  in  fair  value  are  recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income  and 
accumulated in the investments revaluation reserve, with the exception of impairment losses, interest calculated 
using  the  effective  interest  method,  and  foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  on  monetary  assets,  which  are 
recognised in profit or loss. Where the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative 
gain or loss previously accumulated in the investments revaluation reserve is reclassified to profit or loss. 

Investments  are  recognised  and  derecognised  on  trade  date  where  the  purchase  or  sale  of  an  investment  is 
under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market 
concerned,  and  are  initially  measured  at  fair  value,  net  of  transaction  costs  except  for  those  financial  assets 
classified as at fair value through profit or loss which are initially measured at fair value. 

Other financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets ‘at fair value through 
profit or loss’, ‘held-to-maturity investments’, ‘available-for-sale’ financial assets, and ‘loans and receivables’.  
The  classification  depends  on  the  nature  and  purpose  of  the  financial  assets  and  is  determined  at  the  time  of 
initial recognition.   

Effective interest method 
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating 
interest  income  over  the  relevant  period.  The  effective  interest  rate  is  the  rate  that  exactly  discounts  estimated 
future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period. 

Income is recognised on an effective interest rate basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets ‘at 
fair value through profit or loss’. 

Loans and receivables 
Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in 
an active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost 
using the effective interest method less impairment. Interest is recognised by applying the effective interest rate. 

Impairment of financial assets 
Financial assets, other than those at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at 
each reporting date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that as a result of one  
or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset the estimated future cash flows of 
the investment have been impacted.  

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the assets 
carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest 
rate.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued) 
(e)       Financial assets (continued) 

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with 
the  exception  of  trade  receivables  where  the  carrying  amount  is  reduced  through  the  use  of  an  allowance 
account.  When  a  trade  receivable  is  uncollectable,  it  is  written  off  against  the  allowance  account.  Subsequent 
recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying 
amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. 

With  the  exception  of  available-for-sale  equity  instruments,  if,  in  a  subsequent  period,  the  amount  of  the 
impairment  loss  decreases  and  the  decrease  can  be  related  objectively  to  an  event  occurring  after  the 
impairment  was  recognised,  the  previously  recognised  impairment  loss  is reversed  through  profit  or  loss  to the 
extent the carrying amount of the investment at the  date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the 
amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.  

In  respect  of  available-for-sale-  equity  instruments,  any  subsequent  increase  in  fair  value  after  an  impairment 
loss is recognised directly in equity.  

Derecognition of financial assets 
The Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flow from the asset expire, 
or it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another 
entity.    If  the  Group  neither  transfers  nor  retains  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership  and 
continues  to  control  the  transferred  asset,  the  Group  recognises  a  retained  interest  in  the  asset  and  an 
associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of 
ownership  of  the  transferred  financial  asset,  the  Group  continues  to  recognise  the  financial  asset  and  also 
recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.  

 (f) 

Exploration and evaluation assets 

An  exploration  and  evaluation  asset  shall  only  be  recognised  in  relation  to  an  area  of  interest  if  the  following 
conditions are satisfied: 

(i) 
(ii) 

the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and 
at least one of the following conditions is also met: 
 

 

the  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditures  are  expected  to  be  recouped  through  successful 
development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or 
exploration  and  evaluation  activities  in  the  area  of  interest  have  not  at  the  reporting  date 
reached  a  stage  which  permits  a  reasonable  assessment  of  the  existence  or  otherwise  of 
economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the 
areas of interest are continuing. 

Exploration,  evaluation  and  development  expenditure  incurred  is  accumulated  in  respect  of  each  identifiable 
area  of  interest.  These  costs  are  only  carried  forward  to  the  extent  that  they  are  expected  to  be  recouped 
through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that 
permits  reasonable  assessment  of  the  existence  of  economically  recoverable  reserves.  Accumulated  costs  in 
relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the 
area is made. Capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is also written off in circumstances where the 
Board has made a determination in consideration of external indicators of impairment.  

When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life 
of  the  area  according  to  the  rate  of  depletion  of  the  economically  recoverable  reserves.    A  regular  review  is 
undertaken  of  each  area  of  interest  to  determine  the  appropriateness  of  continuing  to  carry  forward  costs  in 
relation to that area of interest. 

(g) 

Impairment of tangible and intangible assets  

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine 
whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, 
the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). 
Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the 
recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent 
basis  of  allocation  can  be  identified,  corporate  assets  are  also  allocated  to  individual  cash-generating  units,  or 
otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent 
allocation basis can be identified. 

Intangible  assets  with  indefinite  useful  lives  and  intangible  assets  not  yet  available  for  use  are  tested  for 
impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. Recoverable amount is 
the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash 
flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments 
of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have 
not been adjusted.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, 
the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss 
is recognised in profit or loss immediately. 

Where  an  impairment  loss  subsequently  reverses,  the  carrying  amount  of  the  asset  (cash-generating  unit)  is 
increased  to  the  revised  estimate  of  its  recoverable  amount,  but  only  to  the  extent  that  the  increased  carrying 
amount  does  not  exceed  the  carrying  amount  that  would  have  been  determined  had  no  impairment  loss  been 
recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in 
profit or loss immediately. 

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

(h) 

Income tax 

Current tax 
Current  tax  is  calculated  by  reference  to  the  amount  of  income  taxes  payable  or  recoverable  in  respect  of  the 
taxable  profit  or tax  loss for the  period.  It  is  calculated  using  tax  rates  and  tax  laws  that  have  been  enacted  or 
substantively enacted  by reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or 
asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).  
The current tax asset is calculated by reference to the estimated Research and Development tax refunds relating 
to eligible research and development activities (R&D tax refunds)  during the financial year. The Company and 
the  Group  are  expecting  to  receive  research  and  development  tax  offset  with  respect  to  its  research  and 
development activities.  

Deferred tax 
Deferred  tax  is  accounted  for  using  the  balance  sheet  liability  method.  Temporary  differences  are  differences 
between  the  tax  base  of  an  asset  or  liability  and  its  carrying  amount  in  the  balance  sheet.  The  tax  base  of  an 
asset or liability is the amount attributed to that asset or liability for tax purposes. 

In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are 
recognised  to  the  extent  that  it  is  probable  that  sufficient  taxable  amounts  will  be  available  against  which 
deductible  temporary  differences  or  unused  tax  losses  and  tax  offsets  can  be  utilised.  However,  deferred  tax 
assets  and  liabilities  are  not  recognised  if  the  temporary  differences  giving  rise  to  them  arise  from  the  initial 
recognition  of  assets  and  liabilities  (other  than  as  a  result  of  a  business  combination)  which  affects  neither 
taxable income nor accounting profit. 

Deferred  tax  liabilities  are  recognised  for  taxable  temporary  differences  associated  with  investments  in 
subsidiaries,  except  where  the  Group  is  able  to  control  the  reversal  of  the  temporary  differences  and  it  is 
probable  that  the  temporary  differences  will  not  reverse  in  the  foreseeable  future.  Deferred  tax  assets  arising 
from deductible temporary differences associated with these investments and interests are only recognised to the 
extent  that  it  is  probable  that  there  will  be  sufficient  taxable  profits  against  which  to  utilise  the  benefits  of  the 
temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when 
the asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been 
enacted  or  substantively  enacted  by  reporting  date.  The  measurement  of  deferred  tax  liabilities  and  assets 
reflects  the  tax  consequences  that  would  follow  from  the  manner  in  which  the  Group  expects,  at  the  reporting 
date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  offset  when  they  relate  to  income  taxes  levied  by  the  same  taxation 
authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. 

Current and deferred tax for the period 
Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the income statement, except when it relates 
to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity. 

 (i) 

Leased assets 

Leases  are  classified  as  finance  leases  when  the  terms  of  the  lease  transfer  substantially  all  the  risks  and 
rewards  incidental  to  ownership  of  the  leased  asset  to  the  lessee.  All  other  leases  are  classified  as  operating 
leases.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Group as lessee 
Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised at their fair value or, if lower, at amounts equal to the 
present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The corresponding 
liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet as a finance lease obligation. 

Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve 
a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against 
income, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance  
with the Group’s general policy on borrowing costs. Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in the periods 
in which they are incurred. 

Finance leased assets are amortised on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. 

Operating  lease  payments  are  recognised  as  an  expense  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  lease  term,  except 
where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the  
leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in 
the period in which they are incurred. 

(j) 

Property, plant and equipment 

Plant  and  equipment,  leasehold  improvements  and  equipment  under  finance  lease  are  stated  at  cost  less 
accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition 
of the item. In the event that settlement of all or part of the purchase consideration is deferred, cost is determined 
by discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present value as at the date of acquisition. 

Depreciation  is  provided  on  property,  plant  and  equipment,  including  freehold  buildings  but  excluding  land. 
Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the net cost or other revalued amount of each 
asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over 
the period of the lease or estimated useful life, whichever is the shorter, using the straight line method. The  
estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting 
period, with the effect of any changes recognised on a prospective basis. 

(k) 

Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past 
event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made 
of the amount of the obligation. 

The  amount  recognised  as  a  provision  is  the  best  estimate  of  the  consideration  required  to  settle  the  present 
obligation  at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a 
provision is measured using the cashflows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the 
present value of those cashflows. 

When some  or  all  of  the  economic  benefits  required  to  settle  a  provision  are  expected  to  be  recovered  from a 
third  party,  the  receivable  is  recognised  as  an  asset  if  it  is  virtually  certain  that  reimbursement will  be  received 
and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. 

(l) 

Revenue 

Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to  the Group and the revenue can 
be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. 

Government grants 

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant 
will be received and the Group will comply with all the attached conditions. Government grants relating to costs 
are  deferred  and  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  over  the  period  necessary  to  match  them  with  the  costs  they  are 
intended  to  compensate.  Government  grants  relating  to  the  purchase  or  development  of  assets,  including 
exploration  and  evaluation  activities,  are  deducted  from  the  carrying  value  of  the  asset  unless  the  asset  has 
previously been written off in which case it is taken to income in profit or loss. 

Interest 

Interest  revenue  is  recognised  as  interest  accrues  using  the  effective  interest  method.  This  is  a  method  of 
calculating  the  amortised  cost  of  a  financial  asset  and  allocating  the  interest  income  over  the  relevant  period 
using  the  effective  interest  rate,  which  is  the  rate  that  exactly  discounts  estimated  future cash receipts through 
the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Other revenue 

Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. 

(m)  Share-based payments 

Equity-settled share-based payments with employees and others providing similar services are measured at the 
fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. Fair value is measured by use of the Black Scholes method. 
The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of 
non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. 

The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-
line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest. 

Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with other parties are measured at the fair value of the goods 
and services received, except where the fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which case they are measured 
at  the  fair  value  of  the  equity  instruments  granted,  measured  at  the  date  the  entity  obtains  the  goods  or  the 
counterparty renders the service. 

For  cash-settled  share-based  payments,  a  liability  equal  to  the  portion  of  the  goods  or  services  received  is 
recognised at the current fair value determined at each reporting date. 

(n)  Goods and services tax 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except: 

(i)  where  the  amount  of  GST  incurred  is  not  recoverable  from  the  taxation  authority,  it  is  recognised  as 

part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or 
for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST. 

(ii) 

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

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

4.  Critical accounting judgements and estimates 

In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, management is required to make 
judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from 
other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors 
that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments. 
Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

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

The  following  are  the  critical  judgements  (apart  from  those  involving  estimations,  which  are  dealt  with  below),  that 
management  has  made  in  the  process  of  applying  the  Group’s  accounting  policies  and  that  have  the  most  significant 
effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements: 

Impairment of assets and exploration and evaluation expenditure 
The  Company  determines  whether  non-current  assets  should  be  assessed  for  impairment  based  on  identified 
impairment  triggers.  At  each  reporting  date  management  assesses  the  impairment  triggers  based  on  their  knowledge 
and judgement. 

5.  Business and geographical segments 

The Group operates predominately in one business segment being the evaluation and exploration of mineral deposits in 
sediment hosted gold deposits in Australia.

(i)  During the 2016 financial year, the Company acquired 212,766 quoted shares in Talisman Mining Limited for the 
consideration  of  $100,000.  The  Directors  have  determined  that  the  fair  value  of  the  shares  in  Talisman  Mining 
Limited was $60,638 as at 30 June 2018 ($50,000 as at 30 June 2017) which has been based on the quoted price 
of the Talisman Mining Limited shares as at that date.  The resulting difference between the consideration and fair 
value as on acquisition has been recorded as movement in other comprehensive income of $10,638 in 2018. 

The  directors  have  made  the  decision  to  sell  the  available  for  sale  investments  in  the  next  12  months  and  as  a 
result  of  this  decision,  the  Talisman  Mining  Limited  shares  have  been  classified  as  Assets  classified  as  held  for

interest  carried  forward  as  an  asset  in  accordance  with  the  accounting  policy  set  out  in  note  3  (f).    The  ultimate 
recoupment  of  the  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  in  respect  of  the  areas  of  interest  carried  forward  is 
dependent upon the discovery of commercially viable reserves and the successful development and exploitation of 
the  respective  areas  or  alternatively  the  sale  of  the  underlying  areas  of  interest  for  at  least  their  carrying  value. 
Amortisation,  in  respect  to  each  relevant  area  of  interest  is  not  charged  to  the  income  statement  until  a  mining 
operation is ready for commencement or when tenements are relinquished.

22.  Contingent liabilities and contingent assets  

The Directors are not aware of any contingent liabilities or contingent assets that are likely to have a material effect on 
the results of the Group as disclosed in these financial statements. 

23.  Financial instruments 

(a)  Financial risk management objectives 
The  Board  monitors  and  manages  the  financial  risk  relating  to  the  operations  of  the  Group.  The  Group’s  activities 
include exposure to market risk, fair value interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk.  The 
overall  risk  management  program  focuses  on  the  unpredictability  of  the  finance  markets  and  seeks  to  minimise  the 
potential adverse effects on the financial performance.  Risk management is carried out under the direction of the Board 
of Directors. 

There have been no substantive changes to the Group’s exposure to financial instrument risk, its objectives, polices and 
processes for managing those risks or the methods to measure them form previous periods throughout these financial 
statements. 

(b)  Significant accounting policies 
Details  of  the  significant  accounting  policies  and  methods  adopted,  including  the  criteria  for  recognition,  the  basis  of 
measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, 
financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 3 to the financial statements. 

(c)  Market price risk 
The  Group  is  involved  in  the  exploration  and  development  of  mining  tenements  for  base  metals  including  gold  and 
copper. Revenue associated with metal sales, and the ability to raise funds through equity and debt are dependent upon 
the commodity price for resources. Currently the Group does not have any revenue from metal sales. 

(d) Interest rate risk 
There  is  a  limited  amount  of  interest  rate  risk  relating  to  the  cash  and  cash  equivalents  that  the  Company  holds  in 
deposits.  The Group will be exposed to further interest rate risk if it intends to borrow funds in the future for acquisition 
and development. 

(e) Credit risk management 
The maximum credit risk equals the carrying amount of the financial assets as recognised in the Statement of Financial 
Position. 

(f)  Fair value of financial instruments 
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows: 

 

 

 

the  fair  value  of  financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  with  standard  terms  and  conditions  and  traded  on 
active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices; and 
the fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined 
in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis; and 
the  Directors  consider  that  the  carrying  amounts  of  financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  recorded  at 
amortised cost in the financial statements approximate their fair values. 

Due to their short term nature, the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities approximate the fair 
values. 

(g)  Liquidity risk management 
Ultimate  responsibility  for  liquidity  risk  management  rests  with  the  Board  of  Directors,  who  has  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 monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and 
working capital and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets, expenditure commitments and liabilities. 

(h) Cash flow and interest rate risk 
The Group’s income and operating cash flows are not materially exposed to changes in market interest rates. 

(i)   Capital risk management 
The Group manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern.  The capital structure of the 
Group  includes  equity  attributable  to  equity  holders  of  the  parent,  comprising  of  issued  capital,  reserves  and 
accumulated  losses  as  disclosed  in  notes  14,  15  and  16  respectively.    The  Group  operates  its  exploration  and 
evaluation activities through its wholly owned subsidiary.  None of the Group’s entities are subject to externally imposed 
capital  requirements.    The  Group  intends  to  use  a  variety  of  capital  market  issues  to  meet  anticipated  funding 
requirements.  The  Group  currently  has  no  short-term or  long-term borrowings.  The  Group  does  not  have  any  unused 
credit facilities.

23. Financial instruments (continued) 

Fair value measurements recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position 
The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at 
fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable. 

 

 

 

Level  1  fair  value  measurements  are  those  derived  from  quoted  prices  (unadjusted)  in  active  markets  for 
identical assets or liabilities. 
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 
1  that  are  observable  for  the  asset  or  liability,  either  directly  (i.e.  as  prices)  or  indirectly  (i.e.  derived  from 
prices). 
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset 
or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT 

To the members of DGO Gold Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of DGO Gold Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the 
Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2018, the 
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement 
of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes 
to the financial report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the directors’ 
declaration. 

In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001, including:  

(i) 

Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2018 and of its 
financial performance for the year ended on that date; and  

(ii) 

Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.  Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial 
Report section of our report.  We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the 
financial report in Australia.  We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance 
with the Code. 

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been 
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the 
time of this auditor’s report. 

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

Material uncertainty related to going concern 

We draw attention to Note 3(b) in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions 
which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the 
group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its 
assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in 
respect of this matter.  

 BDO Audit Pty Ltd ABN 33 134 022 870 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 
110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee. BDO Audit Pty Ltd and BDO Australia Ltd are members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited 
by guarantee, and form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional 
Standards Legislation, other than for the acts or omissions of financial services licensees.

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report of the current period.  These matters were addressed in the context of 
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide 
a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty 
related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit 
matters to be communicated in our report.

For personal use onlyOther information 

The directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the 
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2018, but does not include the 
financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

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 has no realistic alternative but to do so.  

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that 
includes our opinion.  Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an 
audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material 
misstatement when it exists.  Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material 
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic 
decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at:
