Cautionary Statements
Forward-looking statements
This document may contain certain forward-looking statements. Such statements are only predictions,
based on certain assumptions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors,
many of which are beyond the company’s control. Actual events or results may differ materially from the
events or results expected or implied in any forward-looking statement.
The inclusion of such statements should not be regarded as a representation, warranty or prediction with
respect to the accuracy of the underlying assumptions or that any forward-looking statements will be or
are likely to be fulfilled.
Elementos undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after the date of this document (subject to securities exchange disclosure requirements).
The information in this document does not take into account the objectives, financial situation or particular
needs of any person or organisation. Nothing contained in this document constitutes investment, legal,
tax or other advice.
Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves
Elementos confirms that Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates used in this document were
estimated, reported and reviewed in accordance with the guidelines of the Australian Code for the
Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (The JORC Code) 2012 edition.
Elementos confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the Mineral
Resource or Ore Reserve information included in the following announcements:
“Cleveland Open Pit - High-Grade Mineral Resource Defined” announced on 3 March 2015;
“Cleveland Tailings Ore Reserve” released on the 3 August 2015;
“Cleveland Open Pit study adds $21m to cash flow” released on 20 August 2015; and
“Underground study doubles life of Tasmanian mine and adds $90 in pre-tax cash” released on 1
September 2015
The Company also confirms that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the
estimates in the Cleveland Mineral Resources and Reserves continue to apply and have not materially
changed. Elementos also confirms the form and context in which the Competent Person’s findings are
presented have not been materially modified from the dates of the announcements.
A separate Competent Person sign-off for the Annual Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves Statement is
set out in the Interests in Tenements section of this report.
Scoping study results and mining inventories
The scoping studies referred to in this document are based on a low-level technical and economic
assessment, which are insufficient to support estimation of Ore Reserves, or to provide assurance of an
economic development case at this stage, or to provide certainty that the conclusions of the scoping
studies will be realised.
Elementos advises that the scoping study results are partly drawn from Inferred Resources. There is a low
level of geological confidence associated with Inferred Mineral Resources and there is no certainty that
further exploration work will result in the conversion of Inferred Mineral Resources to Indicated Mineral
Resources or that the production target itself will be realised.
The term “mining inventory” is used to describe Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource within the mine
design. Whereas an Ore Reserve, as defined by the JORC code (2012 Edition), must be based on a study
at pre-feasibility study level or better and must not include Inferred Mineral Resources. As such, no Ore
Reserve can be publicly declared on the basis of these scoping studies.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Review of Operations
The Elementos board and management team are very pleased to be issuing this Annual Report to
our Shareholders. The year was about setting the development foundations for the Cleveland Project
over the next 24 months.
During the year, and subsequent to the completion of the financial year, the Company completed
a significant capital raising to fund growth activities. The new funding is being invested in a drilling
programme that is targeting an expansion of the Cleveland open pit mineral resource and the
completion of a metallurgical testing programme.
It is an exciting time to be involved in the global tin industry. The LME tin price is strong, new supply is
constrained by the lack of new development capital, tin’s critical involvement in the explosion of the
global energy storage industry is growing, and this helps to put a floor under the tin price.
It’s an exciting time to be a Shareholder of Elementos. The Cleveland project is one of the highest
grade, hard-rock, open pit, tin projects in Australia, and one of the most advanced projects in
development across the global tin market. The Tasmanian Government and local communities are
very supportive of the project. Furthermore, the board and management team have the expertise
and experience to bring this project into production.
Planned exploration and development activities for the Cleveland project this year are outlined
below.
DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY
A review of the Company’s development strategy
was carried out in the first quarter of the reporting
period. The review resulted in the development of a
new strategy for the Company moving forward.
The new strategy aims to expand the size of the
open-pit mineral resource through a diamond drilling
program targeting infill, strike and depth extensions
to the current 800,000 tonnes at 0.81% Tin and 0.27%
Copper open-pit

potential mineralisation beyond the current known
resource boundaries.
The Company also commenced an enhanced

test work programme
Figure 1. Cleveland Project Location
The new development strategy has the potential to significantly de-risk a future project development,
and significantly enhance the economics of the projects by:
Drawing on a larger, open-cut tin-copper mineral resource;
Creating a longer mine life project with higher-grade ore from the open-cut mineral
Improved cash flows from potentially higher metallurgical recoveries;
resources;
Early cash flow potential through simple, open-cut mining techniques;
Lowering the forecast mine dilution and ore losses through the design of one open-cut
operation; and
Compared to the underground operations, creating a lower risk profile to finance the project.

Review of Operations
MINERALS PROCESSING AND TESTWORK
The Company has commenced a metallurgical test work programme that is targeting increased tin
recoveries from both the hard rock and tailings resources in two phases of testing. The initial phase
of the enhanced metallurgical test work programme is nearing completion.
A 150kg bulk sample was collected from the two tailings dams at Cleveland for metallurgical test
work. Initial processing of the samples has been carried out at the ALS laboratory in Burnie. The test
work included initial sulphide flotation followed by gravity processing and tin flotation, utilising
conventional technology to produce a tin concentrate.
The second phase of the enhanced metallurgical test work programme was delayed until the
company completed a capital raising in July 2017. The test work programme has re-commenced
following the successful capital raising.
EXPLORATION
Ground Magnetics
The initial phase of the exploration strategy designed to increase open cut resources at Cleveland
involved the construction of a 30m line spaced grid over an area centred on the historical workings,
and the completion of a ground magnetic survey over the grid. The narrow line spacing was used to
maximise the potential to collect high resolution data from near surface features. The ground
magnetic survey was carried out over 33 line kilometres of grid.
The ground magnetic survey was completed by ModernMag, an Australian company with extensive
local and international experience. The collection of high resolution magnetic data will assist in
accurate targeting for the proposed shallow diamond drilling programme.
The tin mineralisation at Cleveland occurs predominantly as cassiterite within a replacement sulphide
orebody hosted by a carbonate rich sedimentary sequence. The sulphide mineralisation is
predominantly pyrrhotite, which is magnetic.
The ground magnetic data has been processed to highlight and better define magnetic responses,
controlling structures and lithological variations. The enhanced magnetic images have been
combined with pre-existing geological data to generate a number of new exploration targets. Work
subsequent to the reporting period has involved the 3D modelling of the ground magnetic anomalies
to more accurately determine the orientation of the anomalies and assist in the design of drill holes
to test these anomalies.
Diamond Drilling
An initial 16 hole diamond drilling programme was commenced subsequent to the reporting period.
The initial diamond drilling programme is designed to test infill, near surface and potential depth
extensions to the known open-cut mineral resources. The 16 hole programme commenced in August
2017 following the approval by Mineral Resources Tasmania.
A second phase diamond drilling programme is planned to test the ground magnetic anomalies
outlined in the Figure below (in the blue circles)..These anomalies represent targets outside the
existing mineral resource areas. Additional 3D modelling is underway to better define these drill
targets.

Page 11
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Director’s Report
On 20 January 2017, 2,350,000 unlisted options exercisable at 6.00 cents per option expired.
On 29 June 2017, the Company announced that:
it had received commitments to complete a private placement of 100,000,000 shares to be
issued at 0.60 cents per share (and 100,000,000 attaching options having an exercise price of
0.6 cents per option and expiring on 30 June 2018) to raise a total of $600,000 (before costs);
and
it would proceed with a non-renounceable rights issue to raise up to $1,423,947 (before costs)
on the same conditions as the abovementioned placement, by issuing up to 237,324,456
shares and 237,324,456 attaching options.
On 30 June 2017, 100,000,000 ordinary shares were issued, pursuant to the placement announced on
29 June 2017, raising $600,000 (before costs).
At 30 June 2017, the Company had 949,297,823 ordinary shares and 20,300,000 unlisted options on
issue.
Subsequent to 30 June 2017, between 9 August 2017 and 21 August 2017, 237,324,642 shares were
issued pursuant to the rights issue announced on 29 June 2017 and 337,324,642 unlisted options
(exercisable at 0.60 cents per option expiring on 30 June 2018) were issued pursuant to the
placement and rights issue announced on 29 June 2017.
Subsequent to 30 June 2017, 45,973,245 unlisted options (exercisable at 0.60 cents per option expiring
on 30 June 2018) were exercised in to 45,973,245 shares.
As at the date of this report, the Company had 1,232,595,710 ordinary shares and 311,651,397 unlisted
options on issue.
Financial Position
At 30 June 2017, the Group’s net assets totalled $4,795,541 (2016: $4,580,715) which included cash
assets of $655,868 (2016: $467,268). The movement in net assets largely resulted from the following
factors:
Operating losses of $769,493; and
Equity raisings totalling $1,050,000 (before costs) and receipt of ATO R&D refunds of $211,838
during the period were partially offset by cash outflows from operating activities ($693,759)
and cash outflows on exploration and evaluation assets ($354,585).
Throughout the year the Group focussed on:
progressing environment approvals and mining licences;
completing
required
technical studies
corporate/project funding; and
to attract suitable project partner/s and
exploring innovative ways of enhancing the value of the Group’ Cleveland Project
This focus resulted in souring additional equity funding to progress the Cleveland Project and repay
borrowings.
The Group’s working capital, being current assets less current liabilities has decreased from $407,257
in 2016 to $42,319 in 2017, however this is principally due to the re-classification of borrowings from
non-current to current, noting further that all borrowings have been settled since 30 June 2017.
Treasury policy
The Group does not have a formally established treasury function. The Board is responsible for
managing the Group’s finance facilities. The Group does not currently undertake hedging of any
kind and is not directly exposed to material currency risks.

Director’s Report
Liquidity and funding
Following the capital raisings and debt reduction completed between June and August 2017, the
Group has sufficient funds to finance its operations and exploration activities, and to allow the Group
to take advantage of favourable business opportunities, not specifically budgeted for, or to fund
unforeseen expenditure.
Significant Changes in State of Affairs
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group in the financial year.
Subsequent Events
On 29 June 2017, the Company announced that:
it had received commitments to complete a private placement of 100,000,000 shares to be
issued at 0.61 cents per share (and 100,000,000 attaching options having an exercise price of
0.6 cents per option and expiring on 30 June 2018) to raise a total of $600,000 (before costs)
(Placement); and
it would proceed with a non-renounceable rights issue to raise up to $1,423,947 (before costs)
on the same conditions as the abovementioned Placement, by issuing up to 237,324,456
shares and 237,324,456 attaching options (Rights Issue).
On 30 June 2017, 100,000,000 ordinary shares were issued, pursuant to the Placement, raising $600,000
(before costs).
The Rights Issue was made in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act with full details
set out in a Prospectus sent to Eligible Shareholders on 6 July 2017. The Rights Issue contained a debt
conversion facility.
Subsequent to 30 June 2017, the following events were completed as part of the Placement and
Rights Issue:
The Rights Issue was fully subscribed (after the entitlement and shortfall offers) resulting in
237,324,642 shares and 237,324,642 unlisted options (exercisable at 0.60 cents per option
expiring on 30 June 2018) being issued. 45,371,137 of these shares and options were issued to
the Company’s Chairman and largest shareholder, Andy Greig, utilising the debt conversion
facility to take up his Rights Issue entitlement ($272,226); and
100,000,000 unlisted options (exercisable at 0.60 cents per option expiring on 30 June 2018)

Business Results
The prospects of the Group in progressing their exploration projects in Tasmania may be affected by
a number of factors. These factors are similar to most exploration companies moving through
exploration phase and attempting to get projects into development. Some of these factors include:
Exploration - the results of the exploration activities may be such that the estimated resources
are insufficient to justify the financial viability of the projects. Elementos undertakes extensive
exploration and product quality testing prior to establishing JORC compliant resource
estimates and to (ultimately) support mining feasibility studies. The Company engages
external experts to assist with the evaluation of exploration results where required and utilises
third party competent persons to prepare JORC resource statements or suitably qualified
senior management of the Company. Economic feasibility modelling of projects will be
conducted in conjunction with third party experts and the results of which will usually be
subject to independent third party peer review
Regulatory and Sovereign - the Company operates in Australia and deals with local
regulatory authorities in relation to the exploration of its properties. The Company may not
achieve the required local regulatory approvals to continue exploration or properly assess
development prospects. The Company takes appropriate legal and technical advice to
ensure it manages its compliance obligations appropriately.
Social Licence to Operate – the ability of the Company to secure and undertake exploration
and development activities within prospective areas is also reliant upon satisfactory resolution
of native title and (potentially) overlapping tenure. To address this risk, the Company
develops strong, long term effective relationships with landholders with a focus on developing
mutually acceptable access arrangements. The Company takes appropriate legal and
technical advice to ensure it manages its compliance obligations appropriately.
Environmental - All phases of mining and exploration present environmental risks and hazards.
Elementos’s operations in Australia are subject to environmental regulation pursuant to a
variety of state and municipal laws and regulations. Environmental legislation provides for,
among other things, restrictions and prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions of various
substances produced in association with mining operations. Compliance with such legislation
can require significant expenditures and a breach may result in the imposition of fines and
penalties, some of which may be material. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner
expected to result in stricter standards and enforcement, larger fines and liability and
potentially increased capital expenditures and operating costs. Environmental assessments
of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and
directors, officers and employees. The Company assesses each of its projects very carefully
with respect to potential environmental issues, in conjunction with specific environmental
regulations applicable to each project, prior to commencing field exploration. Periodic
reviews are undertaken once field exploration commences.
Safety - Safety is of critical importance in the planning, organisation and execution of
Elementos’s exploration and development activities. Elementos is committed to providing
and maintaining a working environment in which its employees are not exposed to hazards
that will jeopardise an employee’s health, safety or the health and safety of others associated
with our business. Elementos recognise that safety is both an individual and shared
responsibility of all employees, contractors and other persons involved with the operation of
the organisation. The Company has a comprehensive Safety and Health Management
Page 14
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Director’s Report
system which is designed to minimise the risk of an uncontrolled safety and health event and
to continuously improving safety culture within the organisation.
Funding - the Company will require additional funding to continue exploration and potentially
move from the exploration phase to the development phases of its projects. There is no
certainty that the Company will have access to available financial resources sufficient to
fund its exploration, feasibility or development costs at those times.
Market - there are numerous factors involved with exploration and early stage development
of its projects, including variance in commodity price and labour costs which can result in
projects being uneconomical.
Environmental Issues
The Group is subject to significant environmental regulations under the laws of the Commonwealth
of Australia and states of Australia in which the Group operates.
The directors monitor the Group’s compliance with environmental obligations. The directors are not
aware of any compliance breach arising during the year and up to the date of this report.
Native Title
Mining tenements that the Group currently holds, are subject to Native Title claims. The Group has a
policy that is respectful of the Native Title rights and is continuing to negotiate with relevant
indigenous bodies.
Remuneration Report (Audited)
This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director and other key
management personnel.
The names of key management personnel of Elementos Ltd who have held office during the financial
year are:
Andy Greig
Director – Non-executive Chairman
Chris Dunks
Director – Non-executive (appointed 4 November 2015, ceased 5 July 2016)
Director – Executive (commenced 6 July 2016)
Corey Nolan
Director - Non-executive
Calvin Treacy
Director - Non-executive
Chris Creagh
Operations Manager (appointed 24 August 2016, ceased 31 December 2016)
Chief Executive Officer (appointed 1 January 2017)
Duncan Cornish
Chief Financial Officer and Company Secretary
Tim McManus
Chief Executive Officer (resigned 6 July 2016)
The Group’s remuneration policy seeks to align director and executive objectives with those of
shareholders and business, while at the same time, recognising the early development stage of the
Group and the criticality of funds being utilised to achieve development objectives. The board
believes the current policy has been appropriate and effective in achieving a balance of these
objectives.
Page 15
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Director’s Report
The Group’s remuneration policy provides for long-term incentives to be offered through a director
and employee share option plan and also through a performance rights plan (approved at the
Company’s 2016 AGM). Options may be granted under these plans to align directors’, executives’,
employees’ and shareholders’ interests. Two methods may be used to achieve this aim, the first being
performance rights and options that vest upon reaching or exceeding specific predetermined
objectives, and the second being options granted with higher exercise prices (than the share price
at issue) rewarding share price growth.
The board of directors is responsible for determining and reviewing the Group’s remuneration policy,
remuneration levels and performance of both executive and non-executive directors. Independent
external advice will be sought when required. No independent external advice was sought during
the current year.
Performance-Based Remuneration
Performance-based remuneration includes both short-term and long-term incentives and is designed
to reward key management personnel for reaching or exceeding specific objectives or as
recognition for strong individual performance. Short-term incentives are available to eligible staff of
the Group and may be comprised of cash bonuses, determined on a discretionary basis by the
board. No short-term incentives were made available during the year.
Long-term incentives are comprised of share options and performance rights, which are granted
from time-to-time to encourage sustained strong performance in the realisation of strategic
outcomes and growth in shareholder value. No long term incentives were made available during
the year.
The exercise price of the options is determined after taking into account the underlying share price
performance in the period leading up to the date of grant and if applicable, performance conditions
attached to the share options. Subject to specific vesting conditions, each option is convertible into
one ordinary share.
The Group’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration of board members and
key executives is set out below.
Directors
Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies
for time, commitment and responsibilities. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid
to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting and
is not linked to the performance of the Group. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be
paid to non-executive directors approved by shareholders is currently $250,000. One-third, by
number, of non-executive directors retires by rotation at the Company’s Annual General Meeting.
Retiring directors are eligible for re- election by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the
Company. The appointment conditions of the non-executive directors are set out and agreed in
letters of appointment.
Given the protracted negotiations of the partnering and funding process, the Company believes it
is prudent it continues to maintain a very low-cost corporate overhead and preserve its cash
resources. Consequently, following a board restructure at the end of October 2015 the board
resolved to reduce non-executive director fees (from $27,500 per annum plus superannuation) to
$25,000 per annum (including superannuation) and Andy Greig chose to not accept a (director) fee.
Following the resignation of the Company’s CEO on 6 July 2016, Chris Dunks was appointed as an
executive director and his fee was increased to $73,000 per annum (including superannuation) from
1 August 2016. If directors perform services for the Company that, in the opinion of the other directors,
is outside the scope of the ordinary duties of the director, the Company may pay that director for
those services in addition to the remuneration outlined above.
Page 16
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Director’s Report
Executives
The remuneration structure for executives is based on a number of factors, including length of service,
particular experience of the individual concerned, and overall performance of the Group.
The executives receive payments provided for under an employment or service agreement, which
incentives, and equity based performance
may include cash, superannuation, short-term
remuneration.
Chris Creagh was appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) on 1 January 2017, having previously held
the position of Operations Manager since August 2016. The key terms of the employment agreement
with Chris Creagh are:
Total Fixed Remuneration of $200,000 per annum (inclusive of superannuation);
Annual cash bonus at the discretion of the board (no STI was granted during the financial
year 2017);
Incentive package of 30.0m performance rights (yet to be determined and issued); and
90 days notice of termination by either party.
The Company has a services agreement with Corporate Administration Services Pty Ltd (“CAS”) and
Duncan Cornish, the Company’s CFO and Company Secretary. Under the agreement, CAS also
provides accounting, bookkeeping and administrative services. Both Elementos and CAS are entitled
to terminate the agreement upon giving not less than three months’ written notice. The base fee
under the services agreement is $120,000 per annum. On 21 December 2015 Duncan Cornish was
issued with 10.0 million unlisted options exercisable at 1.25 cents each on or before 31 July 2019
(vested immediately on issue).

As the Company is still in the exploration and development stage, the link between remuneration,
company performance and shareholder wealth is tenuous. Share prices are subject to the influence
of metal prices and market sentiment towards the sector, and as such, increases and decreases
might occur independent of executive performance and remuneration.

Roles and Responsibilities of the Board and Management
ASX CGC Principle 1
Lay solid foundations for management and oversight.
Role of the Board
The Board of Directors is pivotal in the relationship between shareholders and management and the
role and responsibilities of the Board underpin corporate governance.
The Board is committed to administering the policies and procedures with openness and integrity,
pursuing the true spirit of corporate governance commensurate with the Group’s needs.
Generally, the powers and obligations of the Board are governed by the Corporations Act and the
general law.
Without limiting those matters, the Board expressly considers itself responsible for the following:
Ensuring compliance with the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules (where appropriate) and all
relevant laws;
Oversight of the Group including its framework of control and accountability systems to
enable risk to be assessed and managed;
Appointing and removing the chief executive officer;
Ratifying the appointment and, where appropriate, removal of senior executives including
the chief financial officer and the Group secretary;
Input into and final approval of management’s development of corporate strategy and
performance objectives;
Monitoring senior executive’s performance and implementation of strategy;
Ensuring appropriate resources are available to senior executives;
Approving and monitoring the progress of major capital expenditure, capital management
and acquisitions and divestitures;
Page 27
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Corporate Governance Statement
Approving and overseeing Committees where appropriate to assist in the Board’s function
and powers.
The Functions, Powers and Responsibilities of the Board are set out in the Company’s Corporate
Governance Charter which is available from the corporate governance section of the Group’s
website.
The board meets on a regular basis to review the performance of the Company against its goals
both financial and non-financial. In normal circumstances, prior to the scheduled board meetings,
each board member
is provided with a formal board package containing appropriate
management and financial reports.
Appropriate background checks are conducted on proposed new directors and material
information about a director being re-elected is provided to security holders.
Written agreements are entered in to with directors and senior management clearly setting out their
roles and responsibilities.
The company secretary works directly with the chair and the executive director on the functioning
of all board and committee procedures.
Diversity
The Group is committed to workplace diversity and ensuring a diverse mix of skills amongst its
directors, officers and employees.
Recommendation 1.5 requires that listed entities should establish a policy concerning diversity. Whilst
the Group does not currently have a Diversity policy due to its size and nature of its operations, it
strives to attract the best person for the position regardless of gender, age, ethnicity or cultural
background.
As at 30 June 2017, the proportion of women in the whole organisation is a follows:
Male
Female

Performance Evaluation
The Board (in carrying out the functions of the Remuneration and Nomination Committees) considers
remuneration and nomination issues annually and otherwise as required in conjunction with the
regular meetings of the Board.
As the current CEO was recently appointed, no performance evaluation has undertaken.
No formal performance evaluation of the non-executive directors was undertaken during the year
ended 30 June 2017.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Corporate Governance Statement
Board Composition
ASX CGC Principle 2
Structure of the Board to add value
Nomination Committee
Recommendation 2.1 requires the Board to establish a nomination committee.
Although the Board has adopted a Nominations Committee Charter, the Board has not formally
established a Nominations Committee as the Directors consider that the Company is currently not of
a size nor are its affairs of such complexity as to justify the formation of this Committee. The Board as
a whole is able to address these issues and is guided by the Nominations Committee Charter. The
Company will review this position annually and determine whether a Nominations Committee needs
to be established.
The Nomination Committee Charter is set out in the Company’s Corporate Governance Charter
which is available from the corporate governance section of the Group’s website.
The Company is developing an appropriate board skills matrix. The skills, experience and expertise
relevant to the position of each director who is in office at the date of the Annual Report is detailed
in the director’s report.
Corporate Governance Council Recommendation 2.4 requires a majority of the Board to be
independent Directors. The Corporate Governance Council defines independence as being free
from any interest, position, association or relationship that might influence, or reasonably be
perceived to influence, in a material capacity to bring independent judgement to bear on issues
before the board and to act in the best interests of the entity and its security holders generally.
In the context of Director independence, “materiality” is considered from both the Group and the
individual Director perspective. The determination of materiality requires consideration of both
quantitative and qualitative elements. An item is presumed to be material (unless there is qualitative
evidence to the contrary) if it is equal to or greater than 10% of the appropriate base amount.
Qualitative factors considered included whether a relationship is strategically important, the
competitive landscape, the nature of the relationship and the contractual or other arrangements
governing it and other factors which point to the actual ability of the Director in question to shape
the direction of the Group.
In accordance with the Council’s definition of independence above and the materiality thresholds
set, all of the Company’ s directors are not considered to be independent and therefore the Group
does not currently comply with Recommendation 2.4:
Name
A. Greig
C. Dunks

Corporate Governance Statement
Elementos Limited considers industry experience and specific expertise, as well as general corporate
experience, to be important attributes of its Board members. The Directors noted above have been

Directors have the right to seek independent professional advice in the furtherance of their duties as
directors at the Group’s expense. Written approval must be obtained from the chair prior to incurring
any expense on behalf of the Group. Informal induction is provided to any new directors.
Act Ethically and Responsibly
ASX CGC Principle 3
Code of Conduct
The Directors are subject to certain stringent legal requirements regulating the conduct both in terms
of their internal conduct as directors and in their external dealings with third parties both on their own
and on behalf of the Group.
To assist directors in discharging their duty to the Group and in compliance with relevant laws to
which they are subject, the Group has adopted a Corporate Ethics Policy and Corporate Code of
Conduct within its Corporate Governance Charter.
The Corporate Ethics Policy sets out rules binding Directors in respect of:
a Director’s legal duties as an officer of the Company;
a Director’s obligations to make disclosures to the ASX and the market generally; and
dealings by Directors in shares in the Company.
The Corporate Ethics Policy, as set out in the Company’s Corporate Governance Charter is available
from the corporate governance section of the Group’s website.
Safeguard Integrity in Corporate Reporting
ASX CGC Principle 4
Audit Committee
The Board has established an Audit and Risk Management Committee which operates under a
charter approved by the Board.
Recommendation 4.1 states that an audit committee should be structured so that it:
i. consists only non-executive directors;
ii. consists of a majority of independent directors;
iii.
is chaired by an independent chair, who is not the chair of the Board; and
iv. has at least three members.
Page 30

independent (based on the Council’s definition). The Company does not presently comply fully with
Recommendation 4.1 having not met points i and ii above.
All members of the Audit & Risk Management Committee are considered financially literate in the
context of the Company’s affairs. The Company believes that given the size and nature of its
operations, non-compliance by the Company with Recommendation 4.1 will not be detrimental to
the Company.

That the Group’s financial reports are complete and present a true and fair view, in all
material respects, of the financial position and performance of the Group and are in

internal compliance and control.
The Group ensures that its external auditors are present at the AGM to answer any questions with
regard to the efficacy of the financial statement audit and the associated independent audit report.
Continuance Disclosure
ASX CGC Principle 5
Make timely and balanced disclosure
The Group duly complies with ASX and ASIC requirements for the timely and accurate reporting of
the Group’s financial activities, thus ensuring that the Group has disclosed all information which has
a material impact on shareholders. This includes the Annual Financial Report, Interim Financial
Report, quarterly cash flows, new and relinquished tenements and changes in directors and
shareholder interests and other events which are identified to be material. All ASX announcements
are available on the Group’s website.
Page 31
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Corporate Governance Statement
The Company Secretary is responsible for communication with the ASX, including responsibility for
ensuring compliance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the ASX Listing Rules and
oversight of information distributed to the ASX.
Respect The Rights of Security Holders
ASX CGC Principle 6
The Board of directors undertakes to ensure that shareholders are informed of all major developments
affecting the Group. Information is communicated to shareholders through the annual report, interim
financial report, announcements made to the ASX, notices of Annual General and Extraordinary
General Meetings, the AGM and Extraordinary General Meetings.
The Board encourages full participation of shareholders at Annual and Extraordinary General
Meetings to ensure a high level of accountability and identification with the Group’s direction,
strategy and goals. In particular, shareholders are responsible for voting on the re-election of
directors.
The Group also offers shareholders the option to receive ASX announcements and other notices from
the Company electronically.
Risk Management
ASX CGC Principle 7
Recognise and manage risk
The Board has established an Audit and Risk Management Committee which operates under a
charter approved by the Board.
Recommendation 7.1 states that an audit committee should be structured so that it:
i. consists only non-executive directors;
ii. consists of a majority of independent directors;
iii.
is chaired by an independent chair, who is not the chair of the Board; and
iv. has at least three members.
The members of the Audit & Risk Management Committee are Corey Nolan, Calvin Treacy and Chris
Dunks. The Committee is chaired by an independent director (Corey Nolan). While Messrs Nolan and
Treacy are both non-executive directors, Chris Dunks is engaged in an executive capacity. The
majority of the Committee are not independent directors, with only Corey Nolan considered as being
independent (based on the Council’s definition). The Company does not presently comply fully with
Recommendation 7.1 having not met points i and ii above.
All members of the Audit & Rick Management Committee are considered to have sufficient
technical, legal and industry experience in the context of the Company’s affairs to properly assess
the risks facing the Group. The Company believes that given the size and nature of its operations,
non-compliance by the Company with Recommendation 7.1 will not be detrimental to the
Company.

The Company has developed a basic framework for risk management and internal compliance and
control systems which cover organisational, financial and operational aspects of the Company’s
affairs. Further detail of the Company’s risk management policies can be found within the Audit and
Risk Management Committee Charter.
Recommendation 7.2 requires that the Board review the Company’s risk management framework
and disclose whether such a review has taken place. Business risks are considered regularly by the
Board and management at management and Board meetings. A formal report to the Board as to
the effectiveness of the management of the Company’s material business risks has not been formally
undertaken.
The Audit and Risk Management Committee Charter is set out in the Company’s Corporate
Governance Charter which is available from the corporate governance section of the Group’s
website.
The Company does not have a separate internal audit function. The board considers that the
Company is not currently of the size or complexity to justify a separate internal audit function, and
that appropriate internal financial controls are in place. Such controls are monitored by senior
financial management and the Audit and Risk Committee.
The Director’s Report sets out some of the key risks relevant to the Company and its operations.
Although not specifically defined as such, the risks include economic, environmental and social
sustainability risks. As noted above, the Company regularly reviews risks facing the Company and
adopts appropriate mitigation strategies where possible.
Remuneration
ASX CGC Principle 8
Remunerate fairly and responsibly
Remuneration Committee
The Board has not established a Remuneration Committee which operates under a charter
approved by the Board.
Although the Board has adopted a Remuneration Committee Charter, the Board has not formally
established a Remuneration Committee as the Directors consider that the Company is currently not
of a size nor are its affairs of such complexity as to justify the formation of this Committee. The Board
as a whole considers themselves to have sufficient legal, corporate, commercial and industry
experience in the context of the Company’s affairs to properly assess the remuneration issues
required by the Group and is able to address these issues while being guided by the Remuneration
Committee Charter. The Company will review this position annually and determine whether a
Remuneration Committee needs to be established.
Page 33
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Corporate Governance Statement
The Company believes that given the size and nature of its operations, non-compliance by the
Company with Recommendation 8.1 will not be detrimental to the Company.
It is the Company’s objective to provide maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high
quality Board and Executive team by remunerating directors and key executives fairly and
appropriately with reference to relevant employment market conditions. To assist in achieving this
objective, the Board links the nature and amount of executive director’s and officer’s remuneration
to the Group’s financial and operations performance. The expected outcomes of the remuneration
structure are:
retention and motivation of key Executives
attraction of quality management to the Group
performance incentives which allow executives, management and staff to share the rewards
of the success of Elementos Limited.
For details on the amount of remuneration and all monetary and non-monetary components for Key
Management Personnel during the period, please refer to the Remuneration Report within the
Directors’ Report. In relation to the payment of bonuses, options and other incentive payments,
discretion is exercised by the Remuneration Committee and the Board, having regard to the overall
performance of Elementos Limited and the performance of the individual during the period.
There is no scheme to provide retirement benefits to directors other than statutory superannuation.
The Remuneration Committee Charter is set out in the Company’s Corporate Governance Charter
which is available from the corporate governance section of the Group’s website.
Remuneration Policy
The Group’s remuneration policy is also further detailed in the Remuneration Report in the Directors
Report.
Non-Executive Director Remuneration
Non-executive directors are remunerated at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities.
Non-executive directors are remunerated by fees as determined by the Board with the aggregate
directors’ fee pool limit of $250,000. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to
non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
Independent consultancy sources provide advice, as required; ensuring remuneration is in
accordance with market practice. Fees for non-executive Directors are not linked to the
performance of the Group. However, to align Directors’ interests with shareholders interests, the
Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and are, subject to approval by
shareholders, periodically offered options and/or performance rights.
The Company has adopted a Trading Policy that includes a prohibition on hedging, aimed at
ensuring participants do not enter in to arrangements which would have the effect of limited their
exposure to rick relating to an element of their remuneration.
Other Information
Further information relating to the Group’s corporate governance practices and policies has been

ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Year Ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in
accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards, and other
authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. Elementos Limited is a
for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. The financial statements are
presented in Australian dollars.
The principal activity of the Group during the year was project development in Australia. The Group
is developing the Cleveland tin-copper-tungsten Project through a staged, low-capital development
strategy, which minimises upfront capital, with cash flow funding future stages. This ensures maximum
benefit from capital expenditure, delivering optimal value to shareholders.
Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes
also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. The financial statements are for the
consolidated entity consisting of Elementos Limited and its Controlled Entities. Elementos Limited is a
public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The financial statements have been
prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical cost modified by the measurement at fair
value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and liabilities. The financial report was
authorised for issue on 28 September 2017 by the directors of the Company.
Separate financial statements for Elementos Limited as an individual entity are no longer presented
following a change to the Corporations Act 2001. However, financial information required for
Elementos Limited as an individual entity is included in Note 22.
Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented
below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the
continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and discharge of liabilities in the
ordinary course of business. The ability of the Group to maintain continuity of normal business activities
and to pay its debts as and when they fall due is dependent on the ability of the Group to successfully
raise additional capital and/or successful exploration and subsequent exploitation of areas of interest
through sale or development. The Group has not generated any revenues from operations. During
the year ended 30 June 2017, the Group raised $1,050,000 of cash through equity raisings (before
costs). Since 30 June 2017 the Group has raised a further $1,151,721 of cash through equity raisings
(before costs and after debt reduction).
Should the Group not be able to raise further capital, dispose of assets when required or manage its
expenditure so as to conserve cash over the coming 12 months, there exists a material uncertainty
regarding the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and realise its assets and settle its
liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the
financial statements. The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts, or to the amounts or classification of
liabilities which might be necessary should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern.
Principles of Consolidation
Subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of
Elementos Limited ("Company" or "parent entity") as at 30 June 2017, and the results of all subsidiaries
for the year then ended. Elementos Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these
financial statements as the Group or the economic entity.
Page 39
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Principles of Consolidation (continued)
The names of the subsidiaries are contained in Note 20. All subsidiaries have a 30 June financial year
end and are accounted for by the parent entity at cost.
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group has control over an entity
when the Group is exposed to, or has a right to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity,
and has the ability to use its power to affect those returns. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the
date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that
control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group
companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides
evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of controlled entities have
been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Changes in ownership interests
When the Group ceases to have control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in
the entity is remeasured to its fair value, with the change in the carrying amount recognised in profit
or loss.
The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the
retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously
recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group
had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously
recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the
chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating
resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the
Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer.
Income Tax
The income tax expense/(income) for the year comprises current income tax expense/(income) and
deferred tax expense/(income). Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax
payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially
enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities/(assets) are therefore measured at the amounts
expected to be paid to/(recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Deferred income tax
expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the
period as well unused tax losses. Current and deferred income tax expense/(income) is charged or
credited directly to equity instead of profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or
charged directly to equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the
period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively
enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management
expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.

ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Income Tax (continued)
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 statements. 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.
The Company and its Australian 100% owned controlled entities have formed a tax consolidated
group.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to
the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of
the deferred tax asset can be utilised. The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be
realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income
taxation legislation and the anticipation that the economic entity will derive sufficient future
assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of
deductibility imposed by the law.
Exploration and Evaluation Assets
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area
of interest. Such expenditures comprise net direct costs and an appropriate portion of related
overhead expenditure but do not include overheads or administration expenditure not having a
specific nexus with a particular 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 which permits reasonable assessment of the
existence of economically recoverable reserves and active or significant operations in relation to the
area are continuing.
A regular review has been undertaken on each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of
continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
A provision is raised against exploration and evaluation assets where the directors are of the opinion
that the carried forward net cost may not be recoverable or the right of tenure in the area lapses.
The increase in the provision is charged against the results for the year. Accumulated costs in relation
to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit or loss in the year in which the decision to
abandon the area is made.
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.
Restoration Costs
Costs of site restoration are provided over the life of the facility from when exploration commences
and are included in the costs of that stage. Site restoration costs include the dismantling and removal
of mining plant, equipment and building structures, waste removal, and rehabilitation of the site in
accordance with clauses of the exploration and mining permits. Such costs have been determined
using estimates of future costs, current legal requirements and technology on an undiscounted basis.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Restoration Costs (continued)
Any changes in the estimates for the costs are accounted for on a prospective basis. In determining
the costs of site restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration
due to community expectations and future legislation. Accordingly, the costs have been determined
on the basis that the restoration will be completed within one year of abandoning the site.
The economic entity currently has no obligation for any restoration costs in relation to discontinued
operations, nor is it currently liable for any future restoration costs in relation to current areas of
interest. Consequently, no provision for restoration has been deemed necessary.
Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
At each reporting date, the economic entity reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible
assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an
indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less
costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset's carrying value. Any excess of the asset's
carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to profit or loss.
Financial Instruments
Recognition and Initial Measurement
Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the
entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is
adopted for financial assets.
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument
is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified
as at fair value through profit or loss are expensed to profit or loss immediately.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the
asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing
involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset.
Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled
or expire. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or
transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-
cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement
Financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the effective
interest rate method, or cost.
Page 42
ELEMENTOS LIMITED - ABN 49 138 468 756
ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Financial Instruments (continued)
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer an assets. Amortised
cost is calculated as:
(a) the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition;
(b) less principal repayments;
(c) plus or minus the cumulative amortisation of the difference, if any, between the amount
initially recognised and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method;
and
(d) less any reduction for impairment.
The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant
period and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or
receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected
life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to
the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net
cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of
an income or expense in profit or loss.
The economic entity does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture
entities as being subject to the requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to
financial instruments.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that
are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated as
such or that are not classified in any of the other categories. They comprise investments in the equity
of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.
Financial Liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at
amortised cost.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the economic entity assesses whether there is objective evidence that a
financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a
significant or prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an
impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-
term highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than 3 months.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Issued Capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Transaction costs (net of tax where the deduction can be
utilised) arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised in equity as a reduction of the share
proceeds received.
Share Based Payments
The economic entity makes equity-settled share based payments to directors, employees and other
parties for services provided or the acquisition of exploration assets. Where applicable, the fair value
of the equity is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with
a corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market
bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using a binomial lattice pricing model which
incorporates all market vesting conditions. Where applicable, the number of shares and options
expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at each reporting date such that the amount recognised
for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the
number of equity instruments that eventually vest.
Where the fair value of services rendered by other parties can be reliably determined, this is used to
measure the equity-settled payment.
Revenue
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates
applicable to the financial assets.
Employee Benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating
sick leave expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the reporting period are
recognised in liabilities in respect of employees' services rendered up to the end of the reporting
period and are measured at amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST (or overseas VAT), except
where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable. In these circumstances the GST (or overseas
VAT) 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. Cash
flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis except for the GST component of
investing and financing activities which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional and presentation currency of Elementos Ltd and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian
dollars ($A).

ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances (continued)
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates
prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-
end exchange rate. 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 measured. Exchange differences
arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss, except where deferred in
equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.
Group Companies
The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the
economic entity’s presentation currency are translated as follows:
assets and liabilities are translated at period-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting
date;
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period;
retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the
transaction.
Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are recognised in other
comprehensive income.
Government grants
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance
that the grant will be received and the group will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the profit or loss over the period
necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.
Government grants relating to exploration and evaluation assets that have been capitalised are
recognised by deducting the grant received from the carrying amount of the exploration and
evaluation asset recognised on the statement of financial position.
Earnings Per Share (EPS)
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity holders of the
Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial period adjusted for any bonus
elements in ordinary shares issued during the period.
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share
to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with
dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have
been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
New and Amended Standards and Interpretations Adopted During the Year
None of the new standards and amendments to standards that are mandatory for the first time for
the financial year beginning 1 July 2016 affected any of the amounts recognised in the current period
or any period prior and are not likely to affect future periods.
New and amended standards issued that are not yet effective during the year have not been
adopted in preparing these financial statements. These standards include:
1 – AASB 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers – applicable to annual reporting periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2017.
2 – AASB 9 - Financial Instruments – applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1
January 2018..
3 – AASB 16 - Leases – applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019.
None of these are expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements when they are
first applied.
Fair Values
Fair values may be used for financial asset and liability measurement as well as for sundry disclosures.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is based on the presumption
that the transaction takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the
absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. The principal or most
advantageous market must be accessible to, or by, the Group.
Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the
asset or liability assuming that market participants act in their best economic interest. The fair value
measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account the market participant's ability to generate
economic benefits by using the asset at its highest and best use or by selling it to another market
participant that would use the asset at its highest and best use. In measuring fair value, the Group
uses valuation techniques that maximise the use of observable inputs and minimise the use of
unobservable inputs.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial statements based
on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable
expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both
externally and within the economic entity.
Key Judgements:
Exploration and Evaluation Assets
The economic entity performs regular reviews on each area of interest to determine the
appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. These reviews
are based on detailed surveys and analysis of drilling results performed to reporting date. Exploration
and evaluation assets at 30 June 2017 were $4,745,000 (2016: $4,681,891).

On 23 December 2015, the Company executed a loan deed with the Company’s Non-Executive
Chairman Mr Andy Greig, a related party, with the following key terms:
Unsecured
No conversion rights
No requirement to repay principal or pay interest during the loan term
Repayable by the Company at any time (during the loan term)
On 24 February 2017, the Company and Andy Greig agreed to extend the repayment date of the
loan to 31 December 2018. All other terms and conditions of the loan remain unchanged.
Subsequent to 30 June 2017 the loan was repaid in full, as follows:
Andy Greig subscribed for his full entitlement in the Company’s Rights Issue of 45,371,137
shares and 45,371,137 free attaching unlisted options (exercisable at 0.60 cents per option
expiring on 30 June 2018) at a costs of 0.60 cents per share (and free attaching option). Andy
Greig utilised the Rights Issue debt conversion facility to take up his Rights Issue entitlement
costing $272,226, and reduce his loan by the same amount.
Andy Greig exercised 45,371,137 unlisted options (exercisable at 0.60 cents per option
expiring on 30 June 2018) in to 45,371,137 shares paying the exercise price of $272,226 by
reducing his loan by the same amount.
The Company made a final cash payment of $4,989 to pay the residual balance of the loan
and any accrued interest.

Exploration companies such as Elementos Limited are funded almost exclusively by share capital. In
December 2015, the Group also entered in to a loan agreement set out in more detail in Note 10
(Borrowings). The loan has been repaid subsequent to 30 June 2017.
Management controls the capital of the Group to ensure it can fund its operations and continue as
a going concern. Capital management policy is to fund its exploration activities principally by way
of equity, and where required, debt and/or project finance. No dividend will be paid while the Group
is in exploration stage. There are no externally imposed capital requirements.
There have been no other changes to the capital management policies during the year.

During the year ended 30 June 2016, 31million options were granted, 21million to employees
(includes 20million options issued to the then chief executive officer, Tim McManus, one of the
Group’s key management personnel) under the employee share option plan and 10million to a
consultant. The options vested on grant date and expire on 31 July 2019, except for 1million which
expire 31 July 2018.
The weighted average fair value of options granted during the year was 0.64 cents. The fair values
at grant date were determined by an independent valuator using a Black-Scholes option pricing
model that takes into account the share price at grant date, exercise price, expected volatility,
option life, expected dividends, the risk free rate, the impact of dilution, the fact that the options
are not tradeable. The inputs used for the Black-Scholes option pricing model for options granted
during the year ended 30 June 2016 were as follows:
grant dates: 26 August 2015 (for 21million options) and 21 December 2015 (for 10million options)
share price at grant date: 1.0 cent (for the 21million options issued on 26 August 2015) and 0.9
cents (for the 10million options issued on 21 December 2015)
exercise prices: 1.25 cents to 1.50 cents
expected volatility: 100%
expected dividend yield: nil%
risk free rates: 1.91% (for 1million options expiring 31 July 2018) and 2.12% (for 30million options
expiring 31 July 2019)
Expected volatility was determined based on the historic volatility (based on the remaining life of
the option), adjusted for any expected changes to future volatility based on publicly available
information.

NOTE 18: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
(a) Financial Risk Management Policies
The Elementos Group's financial instruments comprises cash balances, receivables and payables,
loans to and from subsidiaries and a loan from a related party. The main purpose of these financial
instruments is to provide finance for Group operations.
Treasury Risk Management
Key executives of the Company meet on a regular basis to analyse exposure and to evaluate
treasury management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and
forecasts.
The board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk
management framework. Management is responsible for developing and monitoring the risk
management policies and reports to the board.
Financial Risks
The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are interest rate risk, credit risk
and liquidity risk. These risks are managed through monitoring of forecast cash flows, interest rates,
economic conditions and ensuring adequate funds are available.
Interest Rate Risk
The Group's exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument's cash flows from
interest will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates, arises in relation to the Group's
bank balances. This risk is managed through careful placement of surplus funds in interest bearing
bank accounts.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
This risk is managed by ensuring, to the extent possible, that there is sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities
when due, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation.
The economic Group's activities are funded from equity and where required and available debt
and/or project finance. There is no requirement to repay principal or pay interest on the related party
loan during the loan term.
Credit Risk
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at
balance date to recognised financial assets, is their carrying amount, net of any provisions for
impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the
financial statements.
Credit risk arises from exposures to deposits with financial institutions and sundry receivables.
Credit risk is managed and reviewed regularly by key executives. The key executives monitor credit
risk by actively assessing the rating quality and liquidity of counter parties:
only banks and financial institutions with an ‘A’ rating are utilised; and
all other entities are rated for credit worthiness taking into account their size, market position
and financial standing.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2017

(d) Sensitivity Analysis
The Company has performed sensitivity analysis relating to its exposure to interest rate risk. At year
end, the effect on profit and equity as a result of a 1% change in the interest rate, with all other
variables remaining constant, is immaterial (2016: immaterial).
NOTE 19: SEGMENT REPORTING
Operating segments have been determined on the basis of reports reviewed by the board of
directors and the Chief Executive Officer (chief operating decision makers) in assessing
performance and determining the allocation of resources. The Group is managed primarily on a
geographic basis, that is, the location of the respective areas of interest (tenements) in Australia.
Operating segments are determined on the basis of financial information reported to the board of
directors which is at the consolidated entity level. The Group does not have any products or
services that it derives revenue from. The Group's exploration and development activities in
Australia is the Group’s sole focus, primarily focused around tin and copper. The Group's previous
exploration activities in Argentina and Chile have been discontinued and/or sold.
Accordingly, management currently identifies the Group as having only one reportable segment,
being the exploration of mineral assets in Australia. There have been no changes in the operating
segments during the year. Accordingly, all significant operating decisions are based upon analysis of
the consolidated entity as one segment. The financial results from this segment are equivalent to the
financial statements of the Group as a whole.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of Elementos Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Elementos Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the
Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, 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 2017 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.

Standards Legislation, other than for the acts or omissions of financial services licensees.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to Note 1 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.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide
a separate opinion on these matters. 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.
Carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets
Key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
The group carries significant exploration and
evaluation assets of $4,745,500 as at 30 June 2017 as
disclosed in note 5 to the financial statements.
The carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets
represents a significant asset of the company and
assessing whether facts or circumstances exist to
suggest that impairment indicators were present, and
if present, whether the carrying amount of this asset
may exceed its recoverable amount was considered key
to the audit.
This assessment involves significant judgement applied
by management.
We considered it necessary to assess whether facts and
circumstances existed to suggest that impairment
indicators were present, and if present, whether the
carrying amount of these assets may exceed its
recoverable amount.
Our procedures included, but were not limited to,
assessing and evaluating management's assessment of
whether any impairment indicators in accordance
with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral
Resources have been identified across the Group’s
exploration projects, the indicators being:
•
•
•
•
Expiring, or imminently expiring, rights to tenure
A lack of budgeted or planned exploration and
evaluation spend on the areas of interest
Discontinuation of, or a plan to discontinue,
exploration activities in the areas of interest
Sufficient data exists to suggest carrying value of
exploration and evaluation assets is unlikely be
recovered in full through successful development
or sale.
We verified current tenement licences to determine
that the group has the rights to tenure and maintains
the tenements in good standing. We obtained the
expenditure budget for the 2018 year and assessed
that there is reasonable forecasted expenditure to
confirm continued exploration spend into the projects
indicating that Management are committed to the
projects. We also reviewed ASX announcements and
Board meeting minutes for the year and subsequent
to year end for exploration activity to identify any
indicators of impairment.

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 2017, 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
