Arizona is at the heart of America’s mining industry and home to some of the world’s largest 
copper  discoveries.  Silver  Mountain,  which  comprises  three  prospects,  Pacific  Horizon, 
Scarlett and Red Mule, lies on the same geological setting that hosts world-class porphyry 
copper mines such as Bagdad, Miami and Resolution, one of the largest undeveloped copper 
deposits in the world. It also lies on the southern extension of the metallogenic belt that hosts 
United Verde and Iron King.

Managing Director, Mr Charles Bass stated: “We have undertaken the first modern exploration 
in very difficult and remote terrain at the Pacific Horizon and Scarlett Prospects. The results to date 
have confirmed the variety and complexity of mineralisation we believed was present. “The work of 
our exploration team and our consultant’s Dr Linus Keating, Dr David Compston and Dr Jeff Jaacks 
has been of great value and has added to our understanding  of our Silver Mountain Cu-Au Project.   

Having completed an aggressive exploration drilling program during the past year the Company is 
now compiling and reviewing the data to determine the next steps. It is early days, but the team is 
excited by the potential of Silver Mountain and other opportunities available in this world class 
mineral province. 

In addition to detailed analyses of the considerable amount of data obtained from our field work, 
we have been actively reviewing a number of other opportunities in Arizona to complement Silver

Chairman’s Report 

Since  listing  on  the  Australian  Securities  Exchange  in  March  2018,  Eagle  Mountain  has 
focussed its exploration and project evaluation work in Arizona, a premier mining jurisdiction. 

As detailed in this Annual Report, a successful first pass exploration program was completed 
at  our  Silver  Mountain  Project.  The  results  have  provided  the  management  team  with 
optimism  on  the  potential  of  Silver  Mountain,  with  further  work  to  be  undertaken  on  the 
various prospects identified in this complex province. 

In  conjunction  with  the  exploration  work  completed  at  Silver  Mountain,  a  considerable 
amount  of  time  was  spent  completing  due  diligence  on  several  greenfields  and  advanced 
opportunities identified to broaden the Company’s project portfolio. This process led to the 
Company  announcing  the    proposed  acquisition  of  an  80%  interest  in  the  Oracle  Ridge 
Copper  project  in  Arizona.  Oracle  Ridge  is  an  advanced  stage  opportunity,  comprising  an 
existing underground mine (currently on care and maintenance) with significant exploration 
upside.  

Oracle Ridge is complementary to the Silver Mountain providing Eagle Mountain with an ideal 
mix of advanced and greenfields exploration projects, and we look forward to completing the 
acquisition  of  this  exciting  project  and  commencing  a  significant  resource  expansion 
exploration program. 

To  lead  this  dual-project  strategy,  the  Company  announced  the  appointment  of  Mr  Tim 
Mason as Chief Executive Officer, commencing 15 January 2020. Tim has 18 years’ experience 
in  the  mining  and  engineering  sectors  across  a  broad  range  of  corporate,  operations, 
business  development  and  engineering  roles.   Tim  is an  underground  mining expert, who 
brings  significant  experience  in  project  development,  feasibility  studies,  financing  and 
operation start-ups to Eagle Mountain. I look forward to working with Tim and advancing our 
exciting project portfolio. 

Mr Charles Bass, Eagle Mountain’s founder and current Managing Director/CEO will remain 
as Managing Director for an appropriate period to ensure a smooth transition, particularly in 
regard  to  the  Company’s  corporate  activities  in  Arizona.  On  behalf  of  the  Board  and 
shareholders,  I  sincerely  thank  Charlie  for  his  hard  work  and  dedication  in  growing  Eagle 
Mountain and for the path he has created for all our future endeavours. I would also like to 
thank all Eagle Mountain staff and contractors for their continued hard work.  

Lastly,  we  are  very  fortunate  to  have  a  supportive  shareholder  base.  The  Board  and 
management thank you for your ongoing support and assure you we will continue to work 
diligently on executing our corporate strategy and building a Company of significance. 

Yours faithfully

Review of Operations  

Silver Mountain Project 

The  preliminary  drilling program completed  at  the  Silver  Mountain  Project  focused on  the  
Pacific Horizon, Red Mule and Scarlett areas. This program was completed over a nine month 
period  during  the  financial  year.  The  Company’s  drilling  contractor  together  with  Eagle 
Mountain  staff  completed  all  holes  in  compliance  with  regulatory  requirements  and  de-
mobilised from site in June of this year.  

Figure  2  below  shows  the  various  prospect  locations  and  illustrates  the  various  types  of 
mineralisation targets within the Silver Mountain Project.  

The Silver Dollar and Rhyolite targets were not tested by drilling as more exploration work is 
required before drill targets can be established.

Pacific Horizon 

Quartz-carbonate breccia is a key copper-gold mineralization style and was encountered in 
all drill holes completed at the Pacific Horizon. The current interpretation suggests that there 
are two different quartz-carbonate breccias: 

•  The  first  occurs  within  the  Volcanogenic  Massive  Sulphide  (VMS)  Horizon  itself  and 

tends to be smaller intervals with lower values; and 

•  The  second  occurs below the  Horizon footwall and tend to  be larger  intervals with 

more significant and anomalous assays. 

Drilling along the Pacific Horizon confirmed the very complex mineralogy at this target with 
results to date providing a significant volume of technical and structural information.  It was 
unexpected that quartz-carbonate breccia would occur below the Horizon footwall, and this 
has  given  us  cause  to  reassess  the  mineralization  genesis  and  model.    Dr  Jeff  Jaack’s 
geochemical analysis suggests a possible epithermal gold signature, and this model remains 
to be investigated. 

Figure  3  below  shows  a  hypothetical  long-section  illustrating  the  different  types  of 
mineralisation targets at the Silver Mountain Project.

all drill holes completed at the Pacific Horizon. The current interpretation suggests that there 

are two different quartz-carbonate breccias: 

•  The  first  occurs  within  the  Volcanogenic  Massive  Sulphide  (VMS)  Horizon  itself  and

has  given  us  cause  to  reassess  the  mineralization  genesis  and  model.    Dr  Jeff  Jaack’s 

geochemical analysis suggests a possible epithermal gold signature, and this model remains 

to be investigated. 

Figure  3  below  shows  a  hypothetical  long-section  illustrating  the  different  types  of 

mineralisation targets at the Silver Mountain Project. 

Mineralisation occurs abruptly with little anomalism either side of significant or anomalous 
intercepts. This may suggest that other “hidden” ore zones may occur near to or just off the 
drill  holes.  This type of discovery  is referred  to as “blind” as  there  is  little indication of  the 
mineralisation occurring outside if directly “hit” by drilling. 

Interpretation of assays received to date from drilling, indicate that: 
•  The VMS system along the Pacific Horizon has been overprinted with at least two phases 
of hydrothermal alteration. This is quite different to other VMS deposits in the region. 
•  There  are  at  least  two  mineralised  systems  intersected  by  drilling.  Newspaper  reports 

from the time of operation of the Pacific Mine talk about 4-5 veins being found. 

•  The same newspaper reports talk about gold values increasing in veins moving to the west 

• 

while copper grades decrease. 
Increased molybdenum and bismuth values are indicators of a potential buried porphyry. 
As  determined  from  a  surface  geochemistry  report  by  Dr  Jeff  Jaacks  (refer  to  the 
Independent  Geologist  Report  –  Eagle  Mountain’s  Prospectus  dated  23  January  2018), 
molybdenum and bismuth increase along the Pacific Horizon moving south-westwards 
from the Pacific Mine. The highest values encountered in the drilling were near the Buffalo 
mine and from holes that reached the lowest elevations; and   

•  A characteristic epithermal gold chemical signature occurs in the hydrothermal breccia 

and the meta-chert tuff of the Pacific Horizon. 

Scarlett 

Drilling at the Gold Vein target at the Scarlett Prospect area was designed to test the porphyry 
potential of the area. This is quite different to the mineralisation encountered along the Pacific 
Horizon. 

Results from two holes were inconclusive but did reveal indicators of a potential porphyry in 
the vicinity. 

The simplified types of alteration encountered in porphyry systems are illustrated below in 
Figure 4, including the shell-like alteration that occurs in porphyry systems both outside and 
below  the  main  ore  zone.  The  areal  extent  of  the  actual  ore  zone  comprises  only  a  small 
portion of the overall porphyry system.

Figure 4 Simplified alteration model of porphyry deposits. 

Porphyry-style alteration was observed in all holes drilled at the Gold Vein target, including: 

•  Propylitic alteration as chlorite disseminated in the hosting granodiorite and in vein 
selvedges.  The  overall  intensity  of  the  alteration  increases  with  depth  in  the  three 
holes completed 19SMDD014, 19SMDD015 and 19SMDD016. 

•  Thin  quartz-carbonate-K-feldspar  veins  are  widespread  in  the  drill  core  and  show 
alteration selvedges with white mica (sericite). Minor sulphides are associated with the 
veins. Alteration can be pervasive over several metres. This may represent the outer 
edge of a Phyllic zone. 

The  Company  was  very  encouraged  by  the  extent  and  style  of  alteration  encountered  in 
drilling.  Further work is required to understand where the mineralised parts of the system 
could be found.   

Red Mule and Rhyolite Target 

The VMS Horizon discovered near the Rhyolite target and south of Red Mule has a slightly 
different rock mineralogy that is similar to that of known VMS deposits in the district. This 
area requires  more field  work  including  mapping  and  sampling  before drill  targets  can  be 
established.

New Projects 

Although the Company’s focus had been on the highly prospective Silver Mountain Project, 
the Company was aware of several advanced project opportunities within Arizona that would 
complement the Silver Mountain Project.  

Subsequent  to  the  end  of  the  financial  year,  the  Company  has  announced  the  proposed 
acquisition of an 80% interest in the Oracle Ridge Copper project in Arizona. Eagle Mountain 
looks  forward  to  completing  the  acquisition  of  this  exciting  project  and  commencing  a 
significant resource expansion exploration program. 

Appointment of Chief Executive Officer 

Subsequent to the end of the financial year, the Board announced the engagement of Mr Tim 
Mason as Chief Executive Officer effective 15 January 2020. 

Tim is a Mining Engineer who holds an MBA and has 18 years’ experience in the mining and 
engineering sectors across a broad range of corporate, operations, business development 
and engineering roles. His recent roles of General Manager Operations and General Manager 
Projects  and  Innovation  involved  conducting  feasibility  studies,  project  development  and 
operations start-up, business development, project financing and corporate presentations

of the Commonwealth of Australia, a State or a Territory. The operations and proposed activities of the 
Group  are  subject  to  United  States  Federal  and  Arizona  State  laws  and  regulations  concerning  the 
environment. 

The  Board  believes  that  the  Group  has  adequate  systems  in  place  for  the  management  of  its

Short Term Incentive Payments 

The  Non-Executive  Directors  set  annual  Key  Performance  Indicators  (“KPIs”)  for  Executive  Directors. 
The KPIs are chosen to align the reward of the individual Executives to the strategy and performance 
of the Company. 

Performance  objectives,  which  may  be  financial  or  non-financial,  or  a  combination  of  both,  are 
weighted when calculating the maximum short term incentives payable to Executives. At the end of the 
year, the Non-Executive Directors will assess the actual performance of the Executives against the set 
Performance  Objectives.  The  maximum  amount  of  the  Short  Term  Incentive,  or  a  lesser  amount 
depending on actual performance achieved is paid to the Executives as a cash payment. 

No Short Term incentives are payable to Executives where it is considered that the actual performance 
has fallen below the minimum requirement. 

Shareholding Qualifications 

The Directors are not required to hold any shares in Eagle Mountain under the terms of the Company’s 
Constitution. 

Group Performance 

In considering the Company’s performance, the Board provides the following indices in respect of the 
current financial year: 

Loss for the period attributable to shareholders

Closing share price at 30 June 

$0.125

As  a  Group  focussed  on  exploration  activities,  the  Board  does  not  consider  the  loss  attributable  to 
shareholders  as  one  of  the  performance  indicators  when  implementing  Short  Term  Incentive 
payments.  

In addition to technical exploration success, the Board considers the effective management of safety, 
environmental and operational matters and successful management, acquisition and consolidation of 
high  quality  landholdings,  as  more  appropriate  indicators  of  management  performance  for  the 
financial year.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For the Year Ended 30 June 2019 

These  consolidated  financial  statements  and  notes  represent  those  of  Eagle  Mountain  Mining  Limited  and  its 
controlled entities (the “Group”). Eagle Mountain Mining Limited is a public limited liability company, incorporated 
and domiciled in Australia. 

The  Group  is  a  for-profit  entity  for  financial  reporting  purposes  under  Australian  Accounting  Standards.  The 
financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 were approved and authorised for issue by the Board of 
Directors on 17 September 2019.                       

1. 

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation of the 
financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. 

(a)  Basis of Preparation 

These general purpose financial statements for the reporting year ended 30 June 2019 have been prepared 
in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and 
other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board.  The  financial 
statements and notes comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. 

The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical cost and does not 
take into account changing money values or, except where stated, current valuations of non-current assets. 
Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets.   

(i)  Going Concern 

The Group has incurred a loss of $6,890,466 and a net operating cash outflow of $6,570,277 during the 
year ended 30 June 2019. Cash assets at 30 June 2019 were $1,879,883 and total liabilities at that date 
were $320,431. 

The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  on  the  going  concern  basis  which  contemplates  the 
continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal 
course of business. The ability of the Group to continue to adopt the going concern assumption will depend 
on future successful capital raisings, the successful exploration and subsequent exploitation of the Group’s 
mining licences and permits, and/or sale of non-core assets.  

The Directors will continue to manage the Group’s activities with due regard to current and future funding 
requirements. The Directors reasonably expect that the Company will be able to raise sufficient capital to 
fund the Group’s exploration and working capital requirements, and that the Group will be able to settle 
debts as and when they become due and payable. On this basis, the Directors are therefore of the opinion 
that the use of the going concern basis is appropriate in the circumstances. 

Should the Company be unable to raise the required funding, there is a material uncertainty that may cast 
significant  doubt  on  whether  the  company  will  be  able  to  continue  as  a  going  concern  and  therefore, 
whether it will be able to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and 
at the amounts stated in the financial report. 

(ii)  Basis of Consolidation 

The  financial  information  comprises  the  financial  information  of  Eagle  Mountain  and  entities  (including 
special purpose entities) controlled by Eagle Mountain (its “subsidiaries”). 

 Control is achieved when Eagle Mountain:  

• 

• 

• 

has power over the investee;  

is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and  

has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.  

Eagle Mountain reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that 
there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

were $320,431. 

The Group has incurred a loss of $6,890,466 and a net operating cash outflow of $6,570,277 during the 

year ended 30 June 2019. Cash assets at 30 June 2019 were $1,879,883 and total liabilities at that date 

The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  on  the  going  concern  basis  which  contemplates  the

The  financial  information  comprises  the  financial  information  of  Eagle  Mountain  and  entities  (including 

special purpose entities) controlled by Eagle Mountain (its “subsidiaries”). 

 Control is achieved when Eagle Mountain:  

has power over the investee;  

• 

• 

• 

is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and  

has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.  

Eagle Mountain reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that 

there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.  

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For the Year Ended 30 June 2019 

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

(ii)  Basis of Consolidation (Continued) 

The financial information of subsidiaries is prepared for the same reporting period as Eagle Mountain, 
using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting 
policies that may exist. All inter-company balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising 
from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs 
cannot be recovered. 

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to 
be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Total comprehensive 
income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of Eagle Mountain and to the non-controlling interests 
even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.  

Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in 
the  consolidated  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income  from  the  date  Eagle 
Mountain gains control until the date when Eagle Mountain ceases to control the subsidiary. 

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated 
as the difference between: 

the  aggregate  of  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  and  the  fair  value  of  any  retained 

• 
interest; and 

• 

the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and 
any non-controlling interests. 

All  amounts  previously  recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income  in  relation  to  that  subsidiary  are 
accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary 
(i.e. reclassified to profit and loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by 
the applicable Accounting Standards). The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary 
at  the  date  when  control  is  lost  is  regarded  as  the  fair  value  on  initial  recognition  for  subsequent 
accounting  under  AASB  9,  or  when  applicable,  the  cost  on  initial  recognition  of  an  investment  in  an 
associate or a joint venture. 

(iii)  New Accounting Standards Adopted in the Current Year 

Application of New and Revised Accounting Standards 

The Group has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations 
issued  by  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  (“AASB”)  that  are  mandatory  for  the  current 
reporting  period.  The  adoption  of  these  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  did  not  have  any 
significant impact on the financial performance or position of the Group during the financial year. 

Impact of Changes – AASB 9 Financial Instruments 

The Company has adopted AASB 9 from 1 July 2018 which have resulted in changes to accounting policies 
and  the  analysis  for  possible  adjustments  to  amounts  recognised  in  the  financial  statements.  In 
accordance  with  the  transitional  provisions  in  AASB  9,  the  reclassifications  and  adjustments  are  not 
reflected in the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2018. The Company has not recognised a 
loss allowance on trade and other receivables following assessment of the impact of the new impairment 
model introduced by AASB 9. 

Classification and Measurement 

On 1 July 2018, the Company has assessed  which business  models  apply to the financial instruments 
held by the Company and have classified them into the appropriate AASB 9 categories. The main effects 
resulting from this reclassification are shown in the table below.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

(ii) 

New Accounting Standards Adopted in the Current Year (Continued) 

On  adoption  of  AASB  9,  the  Company  classified  financial  assets  and  liabilities  as  measured  at  either 
amortised  cost  or  fair  value,  depending  on  the  business  model  for  those  assets  and  on  the  asset’s 
contractual  cash  flow  characteristics.  There  were  no  changes  in  the  measurement  of  the  Company’s 
financial instruments. 

There was no impact on the statement of comprehensive income or the statement of changes in equity 
on adoption of AASB 9 in relation to classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities.

amortised  cost  or  fair  value,  depending  on  the  business  model  for  those  assets  and  on  the  asset’s 

contractual  cash  flow  characteristics.  There  were  no  changes  in  the  measurement  of  the  Company’s 

financial instruments. 

There was no impact on the statement of comprehensive income or the statement of changes in equity 

on adoption of AASB 9 in relation to classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities. 

The  following  table  summarises  the  impact  on  the  classification  and  measurement  of  the  Company’s 
financial instruments at 1 July 2018:

The Company does not currently enter into any hedge accounting and therefore there is no impact to 
the Company’s financial statements. 

Impairment 

AASB 9 introduces a new expected credit loss (“ECL”) impairment model that requires the Company to 
adopt an ECL position across the Company’s financial assets from 1 July 2018. The Company’s receivables 
balance  consists  of  GST  refunds  from  the  Australian  Taxation  Office  and  interest  receivables  from 
recognised  Australian  banking  institutions.  While  cash  and  cash  equivalents  are  also  subject  to  the 
impairment requirements of AASB 9, an impairment loss would be considered immaterial. 

The loss allowances for financial assets are based on the assumptions about risk of default and expected 
loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the 
impairment  calculation,  based  on  the  Company’s  past  history,  existing  market  conditions  as  well  as 
forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period. Given the Company’s receivables are from 
the Australian Taxation Office and recognised Australian banking institutions, the Company has assessed 
that the risk of default is minimal and as such, no impairment loss has been recognised against these 
receivables as at 30 June 2019. Other amended standards adopted by the Group which do not have a 
material impact on the financial statements are: 

• 

• 
• 

AASB  2016-5  Amendments  to  Australian  Accounting  Standards 
Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions 
Interpretation 22 Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration 
Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments 

-  Classification  and 

Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have 
not been early adopted. 

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Mandatory or Early Adopted 

Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended, but are 
not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the Group for the reporting year ended 30 June 2019. 

The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations most relevant to the Group are set out below: 

AASB 16 Leases 

AASB 16 Leases will replace existing accounting requirements for leases under AASB 117 Leases. Under 
current  requirements,  leases  are  classified  based  on  their  nature  as  either  finance  leases  which  are 
recognised on the statement of financial position, or operating leases, which are not recognised on the 
statement of financial position.

For the Year Ended 30 June 2019 

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

Under AASB 16 , the Company’s accounting for operating leases as a lessee will result in the recognition 
of a right-of-use (ROU) asset and an associated lease liability on the statement of financial position. The 
lease liability represents the present value of future lease payments, with the exception of short term 
and low value leases. An interest expense will be recognised on the lease liabilities and a depreciation 
charge will be recognised for the ROU assets. There will also be additional disclosure requirements under 
the new standard. 

Based on the Company’s assessment to date, the adoption of AASB 16 is expected to have an immaterial 
impact on the financial statements of the Company due to the minimal number, if any, of non-cancellable 
leases  currently  entered  into  by  the  Company  which  would  not  fall  under  a  short  term  or  low  value 
exception. 

Transition 

The  Company  will  initially  apply  AASB  16  on  1  July  2019  using  the  modified  retrospective  approach. 
Therefore, the cumulative effect of adopting AASB 16 will be recognised as an adjustment to the opening 
balance of retained earnings at 1 July 2019 with no restatement of comparative information. 

When applying the modified retrospective approach to leases previously classified as operating leases 
under AASB 117, the Company can elect, on a lease-by-lease basis, whether to apply a number of practical 
expedients  on  transition.  The  Company  is  assessing  the  potential  impact  of  using  these  practical 
expedients. 

Based on the current assessment and  conditions  of  the Company,  it  is expected that the adoption of 
AASB 16 will have minimal impact if any on the financial statements of the Company. The actual impact 
of applying AASB 16 on the financial statements in the period of initial application will depend however 
on  future  economic  conditions,  including  the  Company’s  borrowing  rate,  the  composition  of  the 
Company’s  lease  portfolio,  the  extent  to  which  the  Company  elects  to  use  practical  expedients  and 
recognition exemptions, and the new accounting policies, which are subject to change until the Company 
presents its first financial statements that include the date of initial application. 

The  Company  anticipates  recognising  rights  of  use  assets  and  corresponding  lease  liabilities  of 
approximately $396,000 on 1 July 2019 in respect of the Group’s various property leases (refer note 20(b) 
for further details of the Group’s lease commitments). 

(b)  Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure 

Exploration and evaluation expenditure is generally written off in the year incurred, except for acquisition 
of exploration properties which is capitalised and carried forward. 

When production commences, any accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest which have been 
capitalised and carried forward will be amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion 
of  the  economically  recoverable  resources.  A  regular  review  is  undertaken  of  each  area  of  interest  to 
determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to the area of interest. The 
carrying  value  of  any  capitalised  expenditure  is  assessed  by  the  Directors  each  reporting  period  to 
determine if any provision should be made for the impairment of the carrying value. The appropriateness 
of the Group’s ability to recover these capitalised costs has been assessed at the end of each reporting 
period and the Directors are satisfied that the value is recoverable.  

The carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment at an 
overall level whenever facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the assets may exceed 
recoverable amount. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated 
recoverable amount. The assets are then written down to their recoverable amount. Any impairment losses 
are recognised in the income statement.

Transition 

The  Company  will  initially  apply  AASB  16  on  1  July  2019  using  the  modified  retrospective  approach. 

Therefore, the cumulative effect of adopting AASB 16 will be recognised as an adjustment to the opening

Based  on  the  current  assessment  and  conditions  of  the Company,  it is expected that the adoption of 

AASB 16 will have minimal impact if any on the financial statements of the Company. The actual impact 

of applying AASB 16 on the financial statements in the period of initial application will depend however 

on  future  economic  conditions,  including  the  Company’s  borrowing  rate,  the  composition  of  the 

Company’s  lease  portfolio,  the  extent  to  which  the  Company  elects  to  use  practical  expedients  and 

recognition exemptions, and the new accounting policies, which are subject to change until the Company 

presents its first financial statements that include the date of initial application. 

The  Company  anticipates  recognising  rights  of  use  assets  and  corresponding  lease  liabilities  of 

approximately $396,000 on 1 July 2019 in respect of the Group’s various property leases (refer note 20(b) 

for further details of the Group’s lease commitments). 

(b)  Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure 

Exploration and evaluation expenditure is generally written off in the year incurred, except for acquisition 

of exploration properties which is capitalised and carried forward. 

When production commences, any accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest which have been 

capitalised and carried forward will be amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion 

of  the  economically  recoverable  resources.  A  regular  review  is  undertaken  of  each  area  of  interest  to 

determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to the area of interest. The 

carrying  value  of  any  capitalised  expenditure  is  assessed  by  the  Directors  each  reporting  period  to 

determine if any provision should be made for the impairment of the carrying value. The appropriateness 

of the Group’s ability to recover these capitalised costs has been assessed at the end of each reporting 

period and the Directors are satisfied that the value is recoverable.  

The carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment at an 

overall level whenever facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the assets may exceed 

recoverable amount. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated 

recoverable amount. The assets are then written down to their recoverable amount. Any impairment losses 

are recognised in the income statement. 

(c) 

Trade and Other Receivables 

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using 
the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally 
due for settlement within 30 days. 

The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime 
expected  loss  allowance.  To  measure  the  expected  credit  losses,  trade  receivables  have  been  grouped 
based on days overdue. 

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses. 

(d) 

Interest Income 

Interest income is recognised as it accrues. 

(e) 

Foreign Currency Transactions 

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the Group which is Australian 
dollars at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured 
at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary 
items  measured  at  fair  value  are  reported  at  the  exchange  rate  at  the  date  when  fair  values  were 
determined. 

Exchange  differences  arising  on  the  translation  of  monetary  items  are  recognised  in  the  consolidated 
statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income.  Exchange  differences  arising  on  the 
translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is 
directly  recognised  in  equity,  otherwise  the  exchange  difference  is  recognised  in  the  consolidated 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. 

(f)  Operating Segments 

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may 
earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other 
components  of  the  same  entity),  whose  operating  results  are  regularly  reviewed  by  the  entity's  chief 
operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess 
its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. This includes start-up operations 
which are yet to earn revenues. The chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Board of 
Directors  taken  as  a  whole.  Management  will  also  consider  other  factors  in  determining  operating 
segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the 
Board of Directors. 

Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the Board of Directors. 

(g) 

Financial Instruments 

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 Group 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.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
For the Year Ended 30 June 2019 

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

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 
Group intends to hold for the foreseeable future and has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon 
initial recognition. 

Impairment of financial assets 

The  Group  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 Group'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. 

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. 

(h)  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. 

(i) 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term highly 
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. 

(j) 

Impairment of Assets 

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible 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 the other assets, the Group 
estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

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.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include equity investments which the 

Group intends to hold for the foreseeable future and has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon 

(k)  Property, Plant and Equipment 

If  the  recoverable amount  of an  asset  (or  cash-generated  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, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, 
in  which  case  the  impairment  loss  is  treated  as  a  revaluation  decrease.  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, unless the relevant asset is 
carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase. 

Property,  plant  and  equipment  assets  are  initially  recognised  at  acquisition  cost or  manufacturing  cost, 
including any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for 
the assets to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Group’s management.  

Property, plant and equipment assets are subsequently measured using the cost model which reflects cost 
less subsequent depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is recognised on a diminishing value 
basis to write down the cost less estimated residual value of the assets.  

Leasehold improvements are capitalised and subsequently amortised over the term of the respective lease. 

The following depreciation rates are applied to property, plant and equipment assets on the diminishing value 
basis:   

• 
• 

Motor vehicles: 25% 
Other property, plant and equipment: 20-50% 

Material residual value estimates and estimates of useful life are updated as required, but at least annually.  

Gains  or  losses  arising  on  the  disposal  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  assets  are  determined  as  the 
difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in 
profit or loss within other income or other expenses. 

(l)  Goods and Services Tax (GST)  

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (“ATO”).  In these circumstances, the GST is 
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables 
and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. 

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability 
in the statement of financial position. 

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

(m)  Taxation 

The  income  tax  expense  (revenue)  for  the  year  comprises  current  income  tax  expense  (income)  and 
deferred tax expense (income). 

Current income tax expense charged to the profit and loss is the tax payable on the taxable income using 
applicable income tax rates enacted or substantially enacted as at the end of the reporting period. Current 
tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the 
relevant taxation authority. 

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 

(ii)  designated as such upon initial recognition where permitted. Fair value movements are recognised 

of making a profit, or a derivative; or 

in profit or loss.

initial recognition. 

Impairment of financial assets 

The  Group  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 Group'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. 

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.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

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. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax 
bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial information. Deferred tax assets 
also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred 
income  tax  will  be  recognised  from  the  initial  recognition  of  an  asset  or  liability,  excluding  a  business 
combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. 

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries and associates, deferred tax 
assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can 
be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. 

(n)  Trade and Other Payables 

  Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost 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. 

(o)  Provisions and Contingencies 

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of a past event, 
for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably 
measured. 

(p) 

Employee benefits 

Short Term Employee Benefits 

Liabilities  for  wages  and  salaries,  including  non-monetary  benefits,  annual  leave  and  long  service  leave 
expected  to  be  settled  wholly  within  12  months  of  the  reporting  date  are  measured  at  the  amounts 
expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. 

Other Long Term Employee Benefits 

The liability for annual leave and long service  leave  not  expected  to  be  settled  within 12 months of the 
reporting date are measured at 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 
corporate  bonds  with  terms  to  maturity  and  currency  that  match,  as  closely as  possible,  the  estimated 
future cash outflows. 

Defined Contribution Superannuation Expense 

Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are 
incurred.  

(q)  Share Based Payment Transactions 

The  Group  recognises  the  fair  value  of  options  granted  to  Directors,  employees  and  consultants  as 
remuneration as an expense on a pro-rata basis over the vesting period in the consolidated statement of 
profit or loss and other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to equity. 

The Group provides benefits to employees (including Directors) of the Group in the form of share based 
payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares 
(“equity-settled  transactions”).  The  cost  of  these  equity-settled  transactions  with  employees  (including 
Directors) is measured by reference to fair value at the date they are granted. The fair value is determined 
using the Black Scholes option pricing model.

income  tax  will  be  recognised  from  the  initial  recognition  of  an  asset  or  liability,  excluding  a  business 

combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. 

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries and associates, deferred tax 

assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can 

be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. 

  Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost 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. 

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of a past event, 

for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably

Employee benefits 

Short Term Employee Benefits 

Liabilities  for  wages  and  salaries,  including  non-monetary  benefits,  annual  leave  and  long  service  leave 

expected  to  be  settled  wholly  within  12  months  of  the  reporting  date  are  measured  at  the  amounts 

expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. 

Other Long Term Employee Benefits 

The liability  for  annual  leave and  long  service  leave  not  expected  to  be settled  within 12 months of the 

reporting date are measured at 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 

corporate  bonds  with  terms  to  maturity  and  currency  that  match,  as  closely as  possible,  the  estimated 

future cash outflows. 

Defined Contribution Superannuation Expense 

incurred.  

(q)  Share Based Payment Transactions 

Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are 

The  Group  recognises  the  fair  value  of  options  granted  to  Directors,  employees  and  consultants  as 

remuneration as an expense on a pro-rata basis over the vesting period in the consolidated statement of 

profit or loss and other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to equity. 

The Group provides benefits to employees (including Directors) of the Group in the form of share based 

payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares 

(“equity-settled  transactions”).  The  cost  of  these  equity-settled  transactions  with  employees  (including 

Directors) is measured by reference to fair value at the date they are granted. The fair value is determined 

using the Black Scholes option pricing model. 

(r) 

Issued Capital 

Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Group. Any 
transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of 
the share proceeds received. 

(s)  Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments 

In  preparing  the  financial  information,  the  Group  has  been  required  to  make  certain  estimates  and 
assumptions  concerning  future  occurrences.  There  is  an  inherent  risk  that  the  resulting  accounting 
estimates will not equate exactly with actual events and results. 

(i) 

Significant Accounting Judgements 

In  the  process  of  applying  the  Group’s  accounting  policies,  management  has  made  the  following 
judgements, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts 
recognised in the financial statements: 

Acquisition of Silver Mountain Mining Pty Ltd 

On 7 December 2017 Eagle Mountain acquired a 100% interest in the issued capital of Silver Mountain 
Mining Pty Ltd, an entity which controls the Silver Mountain Project located in Arizona in the United States 
of America.  

Eagle  Mountain  acquired  the  entire  share  capital  of  Silver  Mountain  from  an  entity  associated  with  Mr 
Charles Bass. Mr Bass was a Director holding an interest in the entire shareholding of Eagle Mountain. As 
such, the Directors considered the acquisition to be a common control transaction. Accordingly, the excess 
in fair value of consideration given over the net assets acquired was allocated to a common control reserve. 

(ii) 

 Significant Accounting Estimates and Assumptions 

The  carrying  amount  of  certain  assets  and  liabilities  are  often  determined  based  on  estimates  and 
assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a 
material  adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  certain  assets  and  liabilities  within  the  next  annual 
reporting period are: 

Key Estimates – Impairment of Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure 

The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on a number 
of  factors,  including  whether  the  Group  decides  to  exploit  the  related  lease  itself  or,  if  not,  whether  it 
successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale. 

Factors  that  could  impact  the  future  recoverability  include  the  level  of  reserves  and  resources,  future 
technological changes, costs of drilling and production, production rates, future legal changes (including 
changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices. 

Key Estimates – Share Based Payment Transactions 

The Group 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.  Fair values of share options are determined 
using the Black Scholes option pricing model. Should the assumptions used in these calculations differ, the 
amounts recognised could significantly change.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 

Key Estimates – Taxation  

Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto related to taxation are based on the 
best  estimates  of  the  Directors.  These  estimates  take  into  account  both  the  financial  performance  and 
position  of  the  Group  as  they  pertain  to  current  income  taxation  legislation,  and  the  Directors’ 
understanding  thereof.  No  adjustment  has  been  made  for  pending  or  future  taxation  legislation.  The 
current income tax position represents the Directors’ best estimate, pending an assessment by the ATO. 

Key Judgment – Environmental Issues 

Balances  disclosed  in  the  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto  are  not  adjusted  for  any  pending  or 
enacted  environmental  legislation.  At  the  current  stage  of  the  Group’s  development  and  its  current 
environmental impact, the Directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate. 

(t) 

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities 

The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring 
basis, depending on the requirements of the applicable Accounting Standard. 

Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in 
an orderly unforced transaction between independent, knowledgeable and willing market participants at 
the measurement date. 

 (u)  Comparative Information 

Comparative information has been included for the period from when the Company was incorporated on 6 
September 2017 to 30 June 2018.

reports  are  provided  to  the  Directors  for  assessing  performance  and  determining  the  allocation  of  resources 
within the Group.  

Following the acquisition of Silver Mountain Mining Pty Ltd on 7 December 2017, the Group operates in Australia 
and United States of America.

Asset Acquisition

21.  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 

The  Group  has  exposure  to  a  variety  of  risks  arising  from  its  use  of  financial  instruments.  This  note  presents 
information about the Company’s exposure to the specific risks, and the policies and processes for measuring and 
managing those risks. The Board of Directors has the overall responsibility for the risk management framework 
and has adopted a Risk Management Policy.   

Other than the above, the Group has no contingent assets or liabilities outstanding at the end of the year. 

(a)  Credit Risk 

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument 
fails  to  meet  its  contractual  obligations,  and  arises  principally  from  transactions  with  customers  and 
investments. 

Trade and Other Receivables 
The nature of the business activity of the Group does not result in trading receivables. The receivables that 
the Group does experience through its normal course of business are short term and the most significant 
recurring  by  quantity  is  receivable  from  the  Australian  Taxation  Office.  The  risk  of  non-recovery  of 
receivables from this source is considered to be negligible. 

Cash Deposits 
The Directors believe any risk associated with the use of predominantly one bank is addressed through the 
use of at least an A-rated bank as a primary  banker. Except  for  this  matter  the  Group  currently has no 
significant concentrations of credit risk. 

(b) 

Liquidity Risk 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The 
Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient 
liquidity  to  meet  its  liabilities  when  due,  under  both  normal  and  stressed  conditions,  without  incurring 
unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.   

The Group manages its liquidity risk by monitoring its cash reserves and forecast spending. Management 
is cognisant of the future demands for liquid finance resources to finance the Company’s current and future 
operations, and consideration is given to the liquid assets available to the Company before commitment is 
made to future expenditure or investment.

21.  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued) 

(c)  Market Risk 

Market risk is the risk that changes in  market  prices,  such as foreign  exchange rates, interest rates and 
equity  prices  will  affect  the  Group’s  income  or  the  value  of  its  holdings  of  financial  instruments.  The 
objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable 
parameters, while optimising any return. 

Interest Rate Risk 
The Group has  cash assets which may be susceptible to fluctuations in changes in interest rates. Whilst 
the  Group  requires  the  cash  assets  to  be  sufficiently  liquid  to  cover  any  planned  or  unforeseen  future 
expenditure, which prevents the cash assets being committed to long term fixed interest arrangements, 
the Group does mitigate potential interest rate risk by entering into short to medium term fixed interest 
investments. 

Equity Risk 
The Group has no direct exposure to equity risk. 

Foreign Exchange Risk 
The Group holds a portion of its cash assets in US dollar denominated bank accounts and bank deposits. 
The Group is also significantly exposed to foreign exchange risk through transactions and arrangements in 
respect of its US based operations. 

Other than the above, the Group does not have any direct contact with foreign exchange fluctuations other 
than their effect on the general economy. 

The  Group  seeks  to  mitigate  foreign  exchange  risk  by  considering  capital  requirements  and  foreign 
exchange  rates  when  undertaking  treasury  transactions,  such  as  utilising  US  dollar  denominated  term 
deposits. 

22.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 

Credit Risk 
The Directors do not consider that the Group’s financial assets are subject to anything more than a negligible level 
of credit risk, and as such no disclosures are made (refer note 21(a)). 

Impairment Losses 
The Directors do not consider that any of the Group’s financial assets are subject to impairment at the reporting 
date. No impairment expense or reversal of impairment charge has occurred during the financial year. 

Interest Rate Risk 
At the reporting date the interest profile of the Group’s interest-bearing financial instruments was: 

Fixed rate instruments 
Financial liabilities 

Variable rate instruments

(c)  Market Risk 

Market risk  is  the  risk that  changes  in  market  prices,  such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and 

equity  prices  will  affect  the  Group’s  income  or  the  value  of  its  holdings  of  financial  instruments.  The 

objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable 

parameters, while optimising any return. 

Interest Rate Risk 

The Group has  cash assets which may be susceptible to fluctuations in changes in interest rates. Whilst 

the  Group  requires  the  cash  assets  to  be  sufficiently  liquid  to  cover  any  planned  or  unforeseen  future 

expenditure, which prevents the cash assets being committed to long term fixed interest arrangements,

Independent auditor’s report 
Independent auditor’s report to members 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion 
We have audited the financial report of Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (the Company and 
its subsidiaries (the Group)), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial 
position as at 30 June 2019, 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 
statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory 
information, 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 2019 and of 

its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and  

(ii)   complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 

(d) 

the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as set out in note 1. 

2001.  

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern 
We draw attention to Note 1 (a) (i) in the financial report, which indicates that the Group 
incurred a net loss of $6,890,466 and a net operating cash outflow of $6,570,277 during 
the year ended 30 June 2019. As stated in Note 1 (a) (i), these events or conditions, along 
with other matters as set forth in Note 1 (a) (i), 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. 

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 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.

Independent auditor’s report to members (continued) 

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

Key Audit Matters  
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most 
significance in our audit of the financial report of the current year. 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 matter described below to be the key audit matters to be 
communicated in our report. 

CARRYING VALUE OF EXPLORATION COSTS 

How our audit addressed it 

Our audit procedures included:  

—  A review of the directors’ assessment 
on the viability of the 26 patented 
mining claims and 424 unpatented 
mining claims, whether there were any 
indicators of impairment to those costs 
capitalised at the reporting date. 

—  We assessed the adequacy of the 

Group’s disclosures in respect of the 
transactions. 

Area of focus 
Refer also to notes 1(b), 1 (j) and 8 
The Group have incurred exploration 
costs in relation to exploration activities for 
Copper and Gold in the surrounding area 
of the Bradshaw Mountains of Yavapai 
County of Arizona, USA. Exploration and 
evaluation expenditure is generally written 
off in the year incurred, except for 
acquisition of exploration properties which 
is capitalised and carried forward. There is 
a risk the capitalisation of exploration and 
evaluation expenditure may exceed the 
value in use. 

An impairment review is only required if an 
impairment trigger is identified.  
Due to the nature of the resources 
industry, indicators of impairment applying 
the value in use model could include: 

—  Viability of the projects 

—  Changes to exploration plans and 

permits 

—  Loss of rights to tenements 

—  Changes to reserve estimates 

—  Costs of extraction and production

Independent auditor’s report to members (continued) 

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 2019 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.
