Directors' report 
30 June 2020 

The directors present their report, together with the financial statements, on the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as 
the 'consolidated entity') consisting of Freehill Mining Limited (referred to hereafter as the 'company' or 'parent entity') and 
the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year ended 30 June 2020. 

Directors 
The following persons were directors of Freehill Mining Limited during the whole of the financial year and up to the date of 
this report, unless otherwise stated: 

Raymond Charles Mangion 
Paul Davies 
Samuel Duddy (resigned 6 February 2020) 
Peter Hinner  
Wayne Johnson (resigned 29 August 2019) 

Impact of COVID 19 pandemic 
During the period ended 30 June 2020, the COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation (WHO). 
The pandemic has adversely affected the global economy, including an increase in unemployment, decrease in consumer 
demand, interruptions in supply chains, and tight liquidity and credit conditions. Since its outbreak, governments worldwide 
have  set  up  measures  to  contain  the  pandemic.  Many  countries  have  required  entities  to  limit  or  suspend  business 
operations, and have also implemented travel restrictions and quarantine measures. Monetary and fiscal stimulus packages 
have also been introduced in some countries. As the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve, the estimated financial impact 
cannot be reasonably determined at this juncture. The impact which COVID 19 has had on the consolidated entity is set out 
below. 

Chilean operations 
In  response  to  the  pandemic  the  Chilean  government  has  imposed  restrictions. These  have  resulted  in  delays  to  the 
processing of materials from the drilling program feeding in to the feasibility for the Yerbas Beunas project. Whilst there have 
been delays this has not impacted on the likelihood that the project will ultimately be feasible. 

Australian operations 
The impact of COVID-19 on the consolidated  entity's  Australian operations has  not  been material due  to  their scale  and 
nature of operations as a holding company. 

Dividends 
There were no dividends paid, recommended or declared during the current or previous financial year. 

Review of operations 
The loss for the consolidated entity after providing for income tax amounted to $3,321,938 (30 June 2019: $2,508,162). 

Refer to the Chairman's Letter that directly precedes this Directors' Report. 

Significant changes in the state of affairs 
On 2 September 2019, the company completed the acquisition of an 80 hectare tenement known as Arenas XI 1/20, located 
directly to the south of and adjoining to the Yerbas Buenas project area. 

Refer to note 14 of the financial statements for information on the shares issued in the company during the financial year. 

There were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the consolidated entity during the financial year. 

Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year 
Since 30 June 2020, the company has issued the fully paid ordinary shares :-

years. 

Likely developments and expected results of operations

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 
The objective of the consolidated entity's executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive 
and appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the achievement of strategic objectives 
and the creation of value for shareholders, and it is considered to conform to the market best practice for the delivery of 
reward. The Board of Directors ('the board') ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward 
governance practices: 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 competitiveness and reasonableness 
 acceptability to shareholders 
 performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation 
 transparency 

The board is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements for its directors and  executives. The 
performance of the consolidated entity depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy 
is  to  attract,  motivate  and  retain  high  performance  and  high  quality  personnel.    The  board  have  structured  an  executive 
remuneration framework that is market competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the consolidated entity. 

The reward framework is designed to align executive reward to shareholders' interests. The Board have considered that it 
should seek to enhance shareholders' interests by: 
● 
● 

 having economic profit as a core component of plan design 
 focusing on sustained growth in shareholder wealth, consisting of dividends and growth in share price, and delivering 
constant or increasing return on assets as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of value 
 attracting and retaining high calibre executives 

● 

Additionally, the reward framework should seek to enhance executives' interests by: 
● 
● 
● 

 rewarding capability and experience 
 reflecting competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth 
 providing a clear structure for earning rewards 

In  accordance  with  best  practice  corporate  governance,  the  structure  of  non-executive  director  and  executive  director 
remuneration is separate. 

Non-executive directors remuneration 
Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands and responsibilities of their role. Non-executive directors' 
fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. The Board may, from time to time, receive advice from independent 
remuneration consultants to ensure non-executive directors' fees and payments are appropriate and in line with the market.  

ASX  listing  rules  require  the  aggregate  non-executive  directors'  remuneration  be  determined  periodically  by  a  general 
meeting. The most recent determination, where the shareholders approved a maximum annual aggregate remuneration of 
$200,000. 

Executive remuneration 
The  consolidated  entity  aims  to  reward  executives  based  on  their  position  and  responsibility,  with  a  level  and  mix  of 
remuneration which has both fixed and variable components. 

The executive remuneration and reward framework has four components: 
● 
● 
● 
● 

 base pay and non-monetary benefits 
 Long-term performance incentives 
 share-based payments 
 other remuneration such as superannuation and long service leave 

The combination of these comprises the executive's total remuneration.

Freehill Mining Limited 
Directors' report 
30 June 2020 

Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary, superannuation  and non-monetary  benefits, are reviewed  annually  by  the 
Board based on individual and business unit performance, the overall performance of the consolidated entity and comparable 
market remunerations. 

Executives  may  receive  their  fixed  remuneration  in  the  form  of  cash  or  other  fringe  benefits  (for  example  motor  vehicle 
benefits)  where  it  does  not  create  any  additional  costs  to  the  consolidated  entity  and  provides  additional  value  to  the 
executive. 

The short-term incentives ('STI') program is designed to align the targets of the business units with the performance hurdles 
of executives. STI payments are granted  to executives based on specific annual targets and key  performance indicators 
('KPI's')  being  achieved.  KPI's  include  profit  contribution,  customer  satisfaction,  leadership  contribution  and  product 
management. 

The long-term incentives ('LTI') include long service leave and share-based payments including performance rights issued 
in accordance with the company's Equity Incentive Plan. 

Use of remuneration consultants 
During the financial year ended 30 June 2020, the consolidated entity did not engage remuneration consultants. 

Voting and comments made at the company's 29 November 2019 Annual General Meeting ('AGM') 
At the 29 November 2019 AGM, 99.48% of the votes received supported the adoption of the remuneration report for the year 
ended 30 June 2019. The company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM regarding its remuneration practices.

Freehill Mining Limited 
Chairman's letter 
30 June 2020 

Dear Shareholders, 

I am pleased to present to you this year’s annual report for Freehill Mining Limited in what has been a period of considerable 
progress.  

Despite 2020 being defined by the ongoing global pandemic caused by the COVID-19 virus, the year full of positives for our 
company and we have made excellent progress and unlocked significant value. We have delivered a fourfold increase in the 
Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of our 100%-owned Yerbas Buenas magnetite project and we have secured a new highly 
prospective asset that has significantly strengthened our portfolio of quality assets in Chile and given Freehill exposure to 
copper and gold.  

2020 saw the completion of our second drilling program at Yerbas Buenas which took the project’s JORC-compliant MRE 
from 18.4Mt @ 15.1% to 67Mt @ 19.1% - a very meaningful increase in both scale and grade. While we are confident that 
further drilling could define an even larger resource, the Board took the prudent decision to commence a prefeasibility study 
(PFS)  to  establish  a  purpose-built  plant  for  commercial  scale  production  from  the  Yerbas  Buenas  ore.  Refinement  and 
execution of the PFS to deliver commercial operations will be an important part of our focus for 2021. 

We are confident that we can establish Yerbas Buenas as a low-cost, long-life, dependable mining and processing operation 
supplying quality magnetite to local and international  customers. Interest from potential offtakers is most encouraging  and 
locking in supply agreements is a key deliverable for the Board in fiscal 2021.  

Part of our growth strategy has been to use our well-established presence in Chile to assess other assets that broaden our 
portfolio, complement our current asset base and growth strategy, and give us exposure to other attractive commodities. In 
March we entered into a Heads of Agreement to acquire the 750 hectare El Dorado tenement package which joins our Yerbas 
Buenas project and is highly prospective copper and gold.  

The project is located in an area that has a rich history of copper mining and preliminary exploration activity undertaken in the 
current year gives us every indication that El Dorado has excellent prospects. We are now well advanced with exploration 
there with the acquisition recently completed on favourable terms for Freehill.  

It  has  also  been  very  encouraging  to  witness  the  level  of  investor  support  for  the  Company  in  2020.  In  a  major  vote  of 
confidence for Freehill, we secured the support of experienced and respected investor Gavin Ross and his associated parties 
who committed $1.45m in the year and a further $600,000 subsequent to the end of the year. As well, we have welcomed 
some of our option holders converting their options into shares which has further strengthened our financial base. Freehill is 
well funded and we are pleased to have the ongoing financial support from our loyal shareholder base.  

We are confident that 2021 is shaping up to be another positive year for Freehill and we have a number of near-term catalysts, 
being  the  multi-faceted  exploration  programs  El  Dorado  and  the  delivery  of  the  Yerbas  Buenas  PFS,  that  will  both  surely 
deliver further value. 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, our shareholders for your support, our committed executives and exploration 
consultants, and the Board for their very solid guidance. 2021 is indeed full of promise.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies 

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies 
have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. 

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted 
The  consolidated  entity  has  adopted  all  of  the  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period. 

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted for 
the year ended 30 June 2020. 

The  adoption  of  these  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  did  not  have  any  significant  impact  on  the  financial 
performance or position of the consolidated entity. 

The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the consolidated entity: 

AASB 16 Leases 
The consolidated entity has adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019. The standard replaces AASB 117 'Leases' and for lessees 
eliminates the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Except for short-term leases and leases of low-value 
assets, right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position. Straight-
line  operating  lease  expense  recognition  is  replaced  with  a  depreciation  charge  for  the  right-of-use  assets  (included  in 
operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease liabilities (included in finance costs). In the earlier periods 
of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease under AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease expenses under 
AASB  117.  However,  EBITDA  (Earnings  Before  Interest,  Tax,  Depreciation  and  Amortisation)  results  improve  as  the 
operating  expense  is  now  replaced  by  interest  expense  and  depreciation  in  profit  or  loss.  For  classification  within  the 
statement of cash flows, the interest portion is disclosed in operating activities and the principal portion of the lease payments 
are separately  disclosed in financing  activities. For  lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially  change how  a 
lessor accounts for leases. The consolidated entity does not hold any material leases and has applied the practical expedient 
and not implemented lease accounting. 

Going concern 
These  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 normal course of business. 

As  disclosed  in  the  financial  statements,  the  consolidated  entity  incurred  a  loss  of  $3,321,938  and  had  operating  cash 
outflows of $2,652,660. 

These events and conditions indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the consolidated 
entity  will  continue  as  a  going  concern  and  therefore  whether  it  will  realise  assets  and  discharge  liabilities  in  the  normal 
course of business and at the amounts shown in the financial report. 

The directors have reviewed the cash flow forecast for the next 12 months from the date of signing this financial report, and 
assessed that there are reasonable grounds to believe the consolidated entity will be able to continue as a going concern 
due to the following factors: 
● 

 Since  30  June  2020  the  company  has  issued  a  total  of  11,054,540  fully  paid  ordinary  on  the  conversion  of  options 
raising $276,364; 
 Since 30 June 2020 the company has issued a total of 12,788,978 fully paid ordinary shares valued at $601,970 in 
relation to the conversion of debt and accrued interest; 
 Since 30 June 2020 the company has issued a total of 10,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares as part of a placement 
raising $600,000 before costs; and  
 Since 30 June 2020, the company has received a total of $525,000 in relation to debt with conversion option.  Interest 
is payable at 10% per annum and the borrowings expire in November 2021.  It can be converted at a 15% discount to 
7 day VWAP.   
 The consolidated entity is planning to raise further funds for working capital requirements, as required. The directors 
are confident, particularly given recent successful equity raisings, the consolidated entity will be able to access equity 
capital markets.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Accordingly, the directors believe consolidated entity will be able to continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to 
adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the financial report. 

The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the amounts or classification of recorded assets or liabilities 
that might be necessary should the consolidated entity not continue as a going concern. 

Comparatives 
During the current period certain items have been reclassified to ensure accurate disclosure. Comparative information has 
been reclassified and repositioned to be consistent with current year disclosures. 

Basis of preparation 
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate 
for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as 
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB'). 

Historical cost convention 
The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  under  the  historical  cost  convention,  except  for,  where  applicable,  the 
revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or  loss, financial assets at fair value through other 
comprehensive  income,  investment  properties,  certain  classes  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  and  derivative  financial 
instruments. 

Critical accounting estimates 
The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  the  use  of  certain  critical  accounting  estimates.  It  also  requires 
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity's accounting policies. The areas 
involving  a  higher  degree  of  judgement  or  complexity,  or  areas  where  assumptions  and  estimates  are  significant  to  the 
financial statements, are disclosed in note 2. 

Parent entity information 
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. 
Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 23. 

Principles of consolidation 
The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  all  subsidiaries  of  Freehill  Mining  Limited 
('company' or 'parent entity') as at 30 June 2020 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Freehill Mining 
Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'. 

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity 
when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the 
ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from 
the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. 

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are 
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset 
transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies 
adopted by the consolidated entity. 

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, 
without  the  loss  of  control,  is  accounted  for  as  an  equity  transaction,  where  the  difference  between  the  consideration 
transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable 
to the parent. 

Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and 
non-controlling  interest  in  the  subsidiary  together  with  any  cumulative  translation  differences  recognised  in  equity.  The 
consolidated  entity  recognises  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  and  the  fair  value  of  any  investment  retained 
together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Operating segments 
Operating segments are presented using the 'management approach', where the information presented is on the same basis 
as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM'). The CODM is responsible for the allocation 
of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance. 

Foreign currency translation 
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Freehill Mining Limited's functional and presentation 
currency. 

Foreign currency transactions 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the 
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation 
at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in 
profit or loss. 

Foreign operations 
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting 
date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average exchange 
rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences 
are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity. 

The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of. 

Revenue recognition 
The consolidated entity recognises revenue as follows: 

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

Other revenue 
Other revenue is recognised when the performance obligations are met and the right to receive payment is established. 

Income tax 
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable 
income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary 
differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the 
assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for: 
 When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a 
● 
transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor 
taxable profits; or 
 When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the 
timing of the reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable 
future. 

● 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only  if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax 
assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the 
carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable 
that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset.

Freehill Mining Limited 
Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against 
current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on 
either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. 

Current and non-current classification 
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. 

An  asset  is  classified  as  current  when:  it  is  either  expected  to  be  realised  or  intended  to  be  sold  or  consumed  in  the 
consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 
12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used 
to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. 

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; 
it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no 
unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities 
are classified as non-current. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current. 

Cash and cash equivalents 
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly 
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and 
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 

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

Investments and other financial assets 
Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the initial 
measurement, except for financial assets at fair  value through profit  or  loss.  Such assets  are subsequently measured at 
either amortised cost or fair value depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on both the business 
model  within  which  such  assets  are  held  and  the  contractual  cash  flow  characteristics  of  the  financial  asset  unless  an 
accounting mismatch is being avoided. 

Financial assets  are  derecognised  when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or  have  been  transferred and the 
consolidated  entity  has  transferred  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership.  When  there  is  no  reasonable 
expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, it's carrying value is written off. 

Financial assets at amortised cost 
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost only if both of the following conditions are met: (i) it is held within a business 
model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and (ii) the contractual terms of the financial 
asset represent contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest. 

Impairment of financial assets 
The consolidated entity recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured 
at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon 
the consolidated entity's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk 
has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without 
undue cost or effort to obtain. 

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.

Freehill Mining Limited 
Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

For financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is recognised within 
other comprehensive income (as at 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2018, the Group held no financial assets measured at fair 
value through other comprehensive income). In all other cases, the loss allowance is recognised in profit or loss. 

Exploration and evaluation assets 
Exploration and evaluation expenditure in relation to separate areas of interest for which rights of tenure are current is carried 
forward as an asset in the statement of financial position where it is expected that the expenditure will be recovered through 
the successful development and exploitation of an area of interest, or by its sale; or exploration activities are continuing in 
an  area  and  activities  have  not  reached  a  stage  which  permits  a  reasonable  estimate  of  the  existence  or  otherwise  of 
economically recoverable reserves. Where a project or an area of interest has been abandoned, the expenditure incurred 
thereon is written off in the year in which the decision is made. 

Pre-production mine sales are off-set against the carrying value of the exploration assets. 

Trade and other payables 
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial 
year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The 
amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. 

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. 

The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the statement 
of financial position, net of transaction costs. 

On  the  issue  of  the  convertible  notes  the  fair  value  of  the  liability  component  is  determined  using  a  market  rate  for  an 
equivalent  non-convertible  bond  and  this  amount  is  carried  as  a  non-current  liability  on  the  amortised  cost  basis  until 
extinguished on conversion or redemption. The increase in the liability due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance 
cost. The remainder of the proceeds are allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in shareholders 
equity as a convertible note reserve, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured 
in the subsequent years. The corresponding interest on convertible notes is expensed to profit or loss. 

Finance costs 
Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in 
the period in which they are incurred. 

Provisions 
Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past 
event, it is probable the consolidated entity will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made  of 
the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to 
settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. 
If  the  time  value  of money  is material,  provisions  are  discounted  using  a  current  pre-tax  rate  specific  to  the  liability.  The 
increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. 

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.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

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 high quality corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the 
estimated future cash outflows. 

Share-based payments 
Equity-settled and cash-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. 

Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the 
rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of cash 
is determined by reference to the share price. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using 
either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, 
the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend 
yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together  with non-vesting conditions that do  not  determine 
whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of 
any other vesting conditions. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting 
period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate 
of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit 
or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous 
periods. 

The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the 
Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into consideration the terms and conditions on which the award was 
granted. The cumulative charge to profit or loss until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: 
● 

 during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date multiplied by the 
expired portion of the vesting period. 
 from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the 
reporting date. 

● 

All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid to 
settle the liability. 

Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market conditions 
are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are 
satisfied. 

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An 
additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value 
of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification. 

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is 
treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied 
during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the 
award is forfeited. 

If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense 
is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award 
is treated as if they were a modification. 

Issued capital 
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, 
from the proceeds. 

Earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share 
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Freehill Mining Limited, excluding 
any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding 
during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year. 

Diluted earnings per share 
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. 

Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes 
Revenues,  expenses  and  assets  are  recognised  net  of  the  amount  of  associated  GST,  unless  the  GST  incurred  is  not 
recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of 
the expense. 

Receivables  and  payables  are  stated  inclusive  of  the  amount  of  GST  receivable  or  payable.  The  net  amount  of  GST 
recoverable  from,  or  payable  to,  the  tax  authority  is  included  in  other  receivables  or  other  payables  in  the  statement  of 
financial position. 

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities 
which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows. 

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority. 

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 consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2020. The consolidated 
entity has not yet assessed the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations. 

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  that 
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in 
relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and 
assumptions  on historical  experience  and on  other  various factors, including expectations of future  events, management 
believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal 
the  related  actual  results.  The  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  that  have  a  significant  risk  of  causing  a  material 
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are 
discussed below. 

Recovery of deferred tax assets 
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences only if the consolidated entity considers it is probable 
that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Deferred tax assets are not being recognised at 30 June 2020, because their realisation is not yet considered probable.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) 

Exploration and evaluation costs 
Exploration and evaluation costs have been capitalised on the basis that the consolidated entity will commence commercial 
production in the future, from which time the costs will be amortised in proportion to the depletion of the mineral resources. 
Key judgements are applied in considering costs to be capitalised which includes determining expenditures directly related 
to these activities and allocating overheads between those that are expensed and capitalised. In addition, costs are only 
capitalised that are expected to be recovered either through successful development or sale of the relevant mining interest. 
Factors that could impact the future commercial production at the mine include the level of reserves and resources, future 
technology changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes and changes in commodity prices. To the 
extent that capitalised costs are determined not to be recoverable in the future, they will be written off in the period in which 
this determination is made. 

Note 3. Impact of COVID 19 pandemic 

During the period ended 30 June 2020, the COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation (WHO). 
The pandemic has adversely affected the global economy, including an increase in unemployment, decrease in consumer 
demand, interruptions in supply chains, and tight liquidity and credit conditions. Since its outbreak, governments worldwide 
have  set  up  measures  to  contain  the  pandemic.  Many  countries  have  required  entities  to  limit  or  suspend  business 
operations, and have also implemented travel restrictions and quarantine measures. Monetary and fiscal stimulus packages 
have also been introduced in some countries. As the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve, the estimated financial impact 
cannot be reasonably determined at this juncture. The impact which COVID 19 has had on the consolidated entity is set out 
below. 

Chilean operations 
In  response  to  the  pandemic  the  Chilean  government  has  imposed  restrictions.    These  have  resulted  in  delays  to  the 
processing of materials from the drilling program feeding into the feasibility for the Yerbas Beunas project.  Whilst there have 
been delays this has not impacted on the likelihood that the project will ultimately be feasible. 

Australian operations 
The impact of COVID-19 on the consolidated  entity's  Australian operations has  not  been material due  to  their scale  and 
nature of operations as a holding company. 

Note 4. Operating segments 

Identification of reportable operating segments 
The consolidated entity is organised into one operating segment: Chilean Mining. This operating segment is based on the 
internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are identified as the Chief Operating Decision 
Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 14. Equity - issued capital (continued) 

The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as 
value adding relative to the current company's share price at the time of the investment. The consolidated entity is not actively 
pursuing additional investments in the short term as it continues to integrate and grow its existing businesses in order to 
maximise synergies. 

The  consolidated  entity  is  subject  to  certain  financing  arrangements  covenants  and  meeting  these  is  given  priority  in  all 
capital risk management decisions. There have been no events of default on the financing arrangements during the financial 
year. 

The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2019 Annual Report.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2020 

Note 16. Equity - dividends 

There were no dividends paid, recommended or declared during the current or previous financial year. 

Note 17. Financial instruments 

Financial risk management objectives 
The consolidated entity's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency risk, price 
risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity's overall risk management program focuses 
on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of 
the  consolidated  entity.  The  consolidated  entity  uses  different  methods  to  measure  different  types  of  risk  to  which  it  is 
exposed. These methods  include sensitivity  analysis  in the case of interest rate, foreign exchange and  other price risks, 
ageing analysis for credit risk. 

Risk management is carried out by the Board of Directors ('the Board'). These policies include identification and analysis of 
the  risk  exposure  of  the  consolidated  entity  and  appropriate  procedures,  controls  and  risk  limits.  The  Board  identifies, 
evaluates and hedges financial risks within the consolidated entity's operating units.  

Market risk 

Foreign currency risk 
The consolidated entity is exposed to foreign exchange risk in relation to its operation in Chile, and liabilities denominated in 
US dollars. 

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial  transactions and recognised financial assets and financial  liabilities 
denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and 
cash flow forecasting. 

The net carrying amount of the consolidated entity's foreign currency denominated financial assets and financial liabilities at 
the reporting date were as follows:

Price risk 
The consolidated entity is not exposed to any significant price risk. 

Interest rate risk 
The consolidated entity is not exposed to any interest rate risk. 

Credit risk 
The consolidated entity is not exposed to significant credit risk. 

Liquidity risk 
Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash 
equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable. 

The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by 
continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. 

Remaining contractual maturities 
The following tables detail the consolidated entity's remaining contractual maturity for its financial instrument liabilities. The 
tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which 
the financial liabilities are required to be paid. The tables include both interest and principal cash flows disclosed as remaining 
contractual maturities and therefore these totals may differ from their carrying amount in the statement of financial position.

During the prior year, legal claims were lodged in Chile by two separate former suppliers against Yerbas Buenas SpA (YB), 
a fully owned subsidiary of the company. The claims are in relation to alleged breaches of contracts by YB. 

In  addition,  YB  has  been  joined  in  three  labour  related  legal  claims,  in  relation  to  alleged  wrongful  dismissal  by  Lacerta 
Finance & Mining SpA (Lacerta) which resulted from the period where Lacerta was leasing the mining operations. 

The above matters are  in  the early stages of assessment however,  in consideration of advice from the Company’s  legal 
advisers in Chile, the directors believe that these matters will be resolved with minimal impact on the group position.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 

To the Members of Freehill Mining Limited

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Freehill Mining Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the 
Consolidated entity), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, the 
consolidated statement of 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 the directors' declaration. 

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

(i)  giving a true and fair view of the Consolidated entity's financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its 

financial performance for the year then ended; 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 Consolidated entity in accordance with the auditor independence 
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and 
Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant 
to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in 
accordance with the Code. 

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

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

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern 

We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report, which indicates that the consolidated entity incurred a loss of 
$3,321,938 and had net cash outflows from operating activities amounting to $2,652,660 during the year ended 
30 June 2020. As stated in Note 1, these events and conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, 
indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Consolidated entity’s ability to 
continue as a going concern. 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 matter to be communicated in our report. 

Key Audit Matter 

How our audit addressed this matter 

Carrying value of Exploration & evaluation assets 

Refer to Note 9 in the consolidated financial statements 

The consolidated entity has capitalised exploration 
expenditure,  in  relation  to  the  Yerbas  Buenas 
project,  with  a  carrying  value  of  $13.3m,  which 
represented  89%  of  the  total  assets  of  the 
consolidated  entity  as  at  30  June  2020.  We 
determined this to be a key audit matter due to the 
materiality of this asset in the statement of financial 
position  of  the  consolidated  entity,  and  also 
because of the significant management judgement 
involved 
in 
accordance  with  AASB  6  Exploration  for  and 
Evaluation  of  Mineral  Resources  (AASB  6), 
including: 

the  carrying  value 

in  assessing 

  Determination of whether expenditure can be 
finding  specific  mineral 

associated  with 
resources; 

  Assessment whether indicators of impairment 

exists; and 
  Determination 

of  whether 

exploration 
activities  have  progressed  to  the  stage  at 
which  the  existence  of  an  economically 
recoverable  mineral 
reserve  may  be 
determined.

Our audit procedures in relation to the carrying value 
of Exploration and evaluation assets included:  

  Assessing  whether  the  consolidated  entity's 
policy for capitalising exploration and evaluation 
asset  costs  is  in  accordance  with  Australian 
Accounting Standards; 

  Reviewing a sample of additions capitalised as 
exploration  and  evaluation  assets  to  determine 
whether the costs were appropriate to capitalise 
in accordance with AASB 6 and the consolidated 
entity’s accounting policy; 

  Obtaining evidence that the consolidated entity 
has valid rights to explore in the specific areas of 
interest; 

  Critically 

and 

assessing 

evaluating 
management’s assessment that no indicators of 
impairment  existed,  including  reviewing  the 
geologist’s 
there  are 
reasonable  prospects  for  eventual  economic 
extraction in the short term; and 

concluding 

report 

relevant  documentation, 

  Enquiring with management, and reviewing the 
consolidated  entity’s  ASX  announcements  and 
to  assess 
other 
management’s  determination  that  exploration 
activities  have  not  yet  progressed  to  the  point 
where 
the  existence  or  otherwise  of  an 
economically recoverable mineral resource may 
be determined.

Other Information  

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information 
included in the Consolidated entity's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020; 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 accordingly we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

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

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other 
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.  

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair 
view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal 
control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true 
and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.  

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Consolidated entity 
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 Consolidated entity or to cease 
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.  

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report

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

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and 
Assurance Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar2_2020.pdf . This 
description forms part of our auditor's report.  

Report on the Remuneration Report 

Opinion on the Remuneration Report

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Freehill Mining Limited., for the year ended 30 June 2020, complies 
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
