CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
Dear Shareholder,
FY2022 has proven to be a watershed year in the short history of Galileo Mining Ltd with the discovery of the
Callisto palladium-platinum-rhodium-gold-copper-nickel target at our wholly-owned Norseman project in
Western Australia in May.
While discovery drill hole NRC266 returned significant palladium-platinum-gold-copper-nickel-rhodium
mineralisation over 33 metres, what made this a particularly outstanding discovery was all six RC drill holes in
the initial exploration program contained significant zones of mineralisation with strong confirmation of the
initial results from NRC266.
On the back of these results, we spent little time before kicking off our second round of RC drilling, consisting
of 16 holes for 3,939m, to expand on the early results with drilling designed at a 50-metre spacing across strike
and followed by drill lines along strike to the north.
Post year end, we reported assays from the first four RC drill holes of this second program at Callisto which
demonstrated the extensive continuity of mineralisation intercepted with significant thicknesses over 20 metres
at the 1.0 g/t 3E cut-off grade and over 30 metres at the lower 0.5 g/t 3E cut-off reported.
Most importantly, the mineralisation is open at the end of the 6,448,000-drill line where it starts to dip east,
further onto our granted Mine Lease. NRC278 ended in mineralisation at this location and will be completed
with a diamond drill rig, as will further step out holes to the east.
An additional eleven drill holes were completed with each drill hole intersecting disseminated sulphide
mineralisation geologically consistent with the first round of drilling.
A third round of RC drilling has now begun with diamond drilling scheduled to start this month.
At Fraser Range, we undertook a RC drilling campaign at Empire Rose prospect with drilling intersecting
disseminated sulphides. Meanwhile, at the Delta Blues prospect, two diamond drill holes tested a conductive
target beneath sulphide mineralisation at DB2 with matrix, stringer, and disseminated sulphides intercepted in
both holes.
We also acquired a new strategic Fraser Range tenement along strike from known nickel-copper sulphide
mineralisation at the Lantern Prospect where we are undertaking EM surveying to gain a better understanding
of the prospect’s potential. In addition, we are planning infill EM surveying of the highly conductive Green
Moon prospect to refine targets for drill testing.
On the corporate front, we were very pleased with the strong market support for our $20.4 million placement
post year end with $8.7 million of the funds coming from our major shareholders, Mark Creasy and IGO. This
funding allows us to aggressively explore this significant new palladium province within our Norseman Project
area.
In addition, we welcomed highly experienced mining lawyer Cecilia Camarri to the board as an Independent
Non-Executive Director. Cecilia’s appointment will assist us with our aim to transition from an exploration
company to a resource development company on the back of the Callisto discovery.

Lastly, I would like to thank our loyal shareholders for their unwavering support over the past year. With over
five kilometres of strike length at Callisto, I genuinely feel that we have a significant company-making discovery
with upcoming drilling campaigns to further unearth its mineralisation potential. Coupled with highly
prospective targets at the Jimberlana and Mission Sill prospects, ongoing exploration at Fraser Range and cash
in the bank to aggressively turn the drill bit, the potential to build on our mineralisation is very high and I can’t
wait to share our successes during FY2023 with you.
Yours faithfully,
Brad Underwood

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Galileo has two highly prospective West Australian resource and exploration projects (Figure 1) being:
1) The Norseman Project with exploration tenements prospective for palladium-nickel-cobalt deposits and
an existing JORC compliant cobalt-nickel resource, and
2) The Fraser Range Project with exploration tenements prospective for nickel-copper-cobalt deposits.
During the financial year, the Group’s main exploration activities moved from the Fraser Range Project to
the Norseman Project through a series of drilling campaigns, electromagnetic (EM) surveying and other
exploration activities.

Norseman Project
During the year, Galileo reported the discovery of significant palladium-platinum-copper-nickel-sulphide at
the Callisto target.1
Six holes for 1,142 metres were drilled at Callisto2. The target is a mineralised sulphide unit developed at the
base of an ultramafic sill where it intrudes into a package of sedimentary rocks.
Drill holes from the initial campaign were completed on two east-west lines spaced 50 metres apart with a 50-
metre drill spacing along the lines.
Each of the six drill holes intersected palladium-platinum-gold-copper-nickel sulphide intersections. Of the six
holes, drill hole NRC266 recorded the widest interval of sulphide mineralisation with sulphide abundance
increasing to the east in the drilling.
Interpretation of results from Callisto have shown similarities with South Africa’s Platreef deposits with
disseminated sulphide mineralisation hosted in the lower unit of a layered ultramafic sill.
Drill assays from NRC266 were analysed to include the presence of rhodium in addition to palladium-platinum-
gold-copper-nickel.3 These metals also occur in the Platreef deposits in a similar disseminated mineralisation
style and in a similar host rock. Petrographical examination of drill chips from NRC266 is ongoing with the
intention of describing the host rock in more detail.

In June, the Company commenced a second program of RC drilling at the Callisto discovery (Figure 2) to expand
on the early results with drilling designed at a 50-metre spacing across strike to be followed by drill lines along
strike to the north.4 In total, 16 drill holes were completed in this program and three pre-collars prepared for
diamond drill tails.

At J3 and J4 EM targets, results from drill holes adjacent to the previously reported massive sulphide intercept
in NAC105 were also reported.7 The bottom of hole sample from NAC105 was a follow up of sampling reported
on the 1st December 2021 and confirmed the palladium, copper, and nickel sulphide mineralisation previously
reported of 1m @ 0.24% nickel, 0.35% copper, 0.04% cobalt and 0.25 g/t palladium. NAC092, drilled 500m west
of NAC105, had an anomalous result of 1m @ 0.39% nickel, 0.17% copper, 0.03% cobalt and 73 ppb palladium
while NAC108, which was drilled 150m south of NAC105, also had an anomalous result of 4m @ 0.11 g/t Pd
from 16m. Both results extend the zone of interest of this prospect area and further demonstrates that this is
a priority area for follow up drilling.

Southern Mission Sill (MS1)
Galileo announced numerous aircore drill holes from the southern end of the Mission Sill prospect returning
anomalous palladium results greater than 0.1 g/t Pd (see Table 5). Drill holes were undertaken on drill lines
between 200 and 800 metres apart with a nominal drill spacing of 50 metres along the line. The target zone is
the contact between the ultramafic and mafic units of the Mission Sill. This contact can be delineated in the
magnetic imagery and previous RC drilling at this margin has encountered disseminated sulphides in fresh rock
(up to 5% in patches, with up to 74m @ 0.19 g/t Pd in fresh rock).8 Those assays considered to be significantly
anomalous contain greater than 0.1 g/t Pd over the width of the assay interval. Most assays were received from
four metre composite samples with three, two or one metre samples used where required by the end depth of
the drill hole.

The high nickel and cobalt results in NAC126 were drilled in a zone on the northern margin of the Jimberlana
Dyke where it comes in contact with the Mission Sill prospect. NAC126 is approximately 800m east of NAC105
which intersected massive sulphides in bottom of hole chips. Subsequent EM surveying around NAC105
delineated large EM conductors beneath drill hole NAC105. Additional EM surveying and IP surveying is now
being planned to follow up the results from NAC126.

for assay details. Metre numbers are the end of the interval ie. 33 denotes the interval from 32 to 33m
NAC 160 occurs at the interpreted contact between ultramafic and mafic rock. The drill line is a few hundred
metres north of the east-west trending Jimberlana Dyke.10 The area of interaction between the Jimberlana Dyke
and Mission Sill is a priority exploration target for upcoming work programs. Figure 10 shows the extent of
Mission Sill with the prospective target zone and the four kilometres of untested strike length with no palladium
exploration. This unexplored contact position will be targeted with first pass aircore drilling, IP surveying, and
follow up RC drill testing.

Planned work programs at the Norseman Project
The next assays from the second-round drill program at Callisto are anticipated in August 2022.
The third round of RC drilling at Callisto commenced in early August. This drilling aims to expand the known
mineralisation along strike and to the west.
Diamond drilling is also planned to start in August and will focus on the down dip zones to the east.
The drilling programs allow for a broader interpretation of the mineralisation setting, and a better
understanding of the regional potential for more discoveries.
Drill programs at the Mission Sill and Jimberlana prospects are also being planned for later in the year. These
programs aim to follow up on the multitude of anomalous aircore drilling results generated in these areas (see
ASX announcements dated 03/08/22, 08/03/22, 21/03/22, 24/03/22 and 28/03/22).
Fraser Range Project
While the priority for Galileo during the financial year was exploration at Norseman, the Company continued
to progress exploration work at its Fraser Range project.
EM surveying is ongoing at Galileo’s northern Fraser Range project area with the aim of defining new
undercover nickel targets for drill testing. Previous drilling at the Lantern South and Lantern East prospects has
established the area as highly prospective for sulphides. The conductive anomaly at the Easterly prospect is
northeast along strike from known sulphide mineralisation at the Lantern prospect and is ready for drill testing.
The conductive target at the Green Moon prospect requires infill EM surveying to refine the target prior to drill
testing. The current parameters of the EM models at these locations are shown in Table 8 with magnetic
background imagery shown in Figure 11.

During the March Quarter, Galileo undertook an RC drill campaign at the Empire Rose prospect consisting of
940m over six drill holes.11 All targets were under shallow cover and represented a combination of geological
and geophysical anomalies. Figure 12 shows the location of the six RC drill holes completed and summary logs
with drill hole details are contained in Appendices 1 and 2. Figure 8 ––Empire Rose prospect with 2022 RC drill
holes and geological/geophysical targets drill tested (over TMI magnetic image).
Figure 12 ––Empire Rose prospect with 2022 RC drill holes and geological/geophysical targets drill
tested (over TMI magnetic image)
Conductive anomalies EM1, EM2, and EM3 (drill holes FSRC001, FSRC003, FSRC002 respectively) were found to
be related to an interpreted graphitic shear zone with disseminated sulphides over significant drilled
thicknesses of greater than 50 metres in FSRC002.
Disseminated sulphides were predominantly pyrrhotite and pyrite and were typically 0.5 to 3% of the one metre
drilled interval, where recorded. FSRC004 was a short drill hole designed to ascertain the cause of the strong
magnetic anomaly beneath cover. The bottom of hole rock chips showed magnetic paragneiss/mafic
metasedimentary unit. FSRC005 and FSRC006 were drilled beneath ultramafic rock units first identified by
aircore drilling. More ultramafic rock was recognised from drill chips which will now be sent for petrographical
analyses to determine nickel fertility. Down hole EM surveying and laboratory assaying will also be used to
establish whether there are further targets for drilling within the prospect area.

GALILEO MINING LTD
ABN 70 104 114 132
Assays from diamond drilling completed at the Delta Blues prospect in the Fraser Range were also received
during the March Quarter. Although matrix, disseminated and stringer sulphides were intersected in drilling
(see ASX announcement dated 15 December 2021), assays indicated the majority of the sulphide was pyrrhotite,
in line with geological logging. Copper and gold values were sporadic through the sulphide zones with a
maximum copper value of 0.51% (from 399 to 400m in DBDD001) and maximum gold values of 0.20 g/t (from
181 to 182m in DBDD001 and from 298 to 299m in DBDD002).
In October 2021, Galileo reported the results of EM surveying from the Company’s Delta Blues prospect within
the Fraser Range Belt in Western Australia.12
This followed positive assay results from three reverse circulation (RC) drill holes completed in September at
the Delta Blues DB2 prospect13 with all three drill holes targeting the very top of a large electro-magnetic (EM)
conductor and all three holes recording sulphide intercepts with anomalous amounts of copper and gold.
DHEM surveying at the Delta Blues DB2 prospect defined a highly conductive target with modelled conductivity
up to 10,500 Siemens. The most conductive zone was positioned below drill holes DBRC001 and DBRC003.
Both RC drill holes recorded sulphide intercepts with anomalous amounts of copper and gold in the first round
of drilling undertaken at the prospect.14 Modelled conductor dimensions up to 500m by 500m represent a
large-scale target with all three drill holes completed to date showing sulphide indications over a minimum
strike length of 210 metres.
Drill holes DBDD001 and DBDD002 were subsequently drilled to test the conductive target beneath sulphide
mineralisation at the DB2 target (Figure 13).15
Figure 13 – Diamond drilling at the Delta Blues prospect in the Fraser Range
Matrix, stringer, and disseminated sulphides were intercepted in both drill holes (Figure 14). However, the
Company is unsure whether the modelled conductor can be adequately explained by the mineralisation
intercepted or is in part related to graphite which accompanies some sections of the sulphide mineralisation.16

Figure 14 - Matrix sulphide mineralisation at 399m downhole in DBDD001 (field of view approximately
20cm across)
Observed sulphides are predominantly pyrrhotite with minor chalcopyrite. Geological logging recorded typical
Fraser Range meta-sediments and mafic granulites as well as units of felsic (tonalite) intrusive rocks. The
intrusive units occur proximal and adjacent to the sulphides and may have a causative relationship. Felsic
intrusive samples from RC drill hole DBRC001 were examined petrographically under the microscope and were
determined to be trondhjemite, a variety of tonalite.
EM surveying at the Delta Blues DB1 prospect was not successful in replicating earlier modelling and the target
wasn’t drilled during this drill program.
Planned work programs at the Fraser Range Project
Ongoing EM surveying at Galileo’s northern Fraser Range project area with the aim of defining new undercover
nickel targets for drill testing.
The conductive target at the Green Moon prospect requires infill EM surveying to refine the target prior to drill
testing.
OPERATIONS POST YEAR END
Norseman Project
Post end of FY2022, Galileo reported drill assays from the first four RC holes of the second RC drill program at
Callisto and confirmed significant palladium-platinum-gold-copper-nickel results. 17
This included the highest-grade palladium and platinum assays recorded to date of 8.25 g/t Pd & 1.94 g/t Pt
over one metre in NRC275 which add even more prospectivity to the Callisto area with the possibility of high-
grade zones occurring within the mineralised system.
The Company reported significant thicknesses over 20 metres at the 1.0 g/t 3E cut-off grade and over 30 metres
at the lower 0.5 g/t 3E cut-off.
Mineralisation is open in all directions and now extends over 300 metres across strike on section 6,448,000N.

Eleven additional drill holes have been completed with each drill hole intersecting disseminated sulphide
mineralisation geologically consistent with the first round of drilling.18
The geometry of the sulphide mineralisation appears to be flat lying before it begins to dip to the east.
Mineralisation is not yet closed off on the flat lying areas to the west with the possibility of extensions to the
west at a relatively shallow depth below surface. Mineralisation is also open to the north, south and east.

CORPORATE
During the year, Galileo announced the appointment of highly experienced mining lawyer Cecilia Camarri as
an Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company.
Cecilia is Special Counsel at a WA law firm and has extensive experience specialising in the mining industry.
Cecilia acts as a legal adviser to private and listed mining companies and has both operational and
management experience.
As at 30 June 2022, the Group had cash and deposits of approximately $7 million.
Notably, post period-end Galileo successfully closed a placement of 17,000,000 shares at an issue price of $1.20
per share to raise gross proceeds of $20.4 million.
The Placement received strong backing, with $8.7 million of the funds coming from major shareholders, Mark
Creasy and IGO, and ensures the Company is well positioned for future exploration activities.
Risks to the Group due to the ongoing global COVID-19 health emergency continue to be monitored. The
Group’s cash position provides insulation to any longer-term unforeseen impacts to funding and operating
that may occur. All of Galileo’s projects are located in Western Australia and, although the future risk from
COVID-19 cannot be reliably estimated, the potential impact on Group’s operations over the next 12 months
does not appear significant.

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited)
The Directors of Galileo Mining Ltd present the Remuneration Report (‘the Report”) for the Group for the year
ended 30 June 2022 (“FY22”). This Report forms part of the Directors’ Report and has been audited as required
by section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
Key management personnel disclosed in this report
For the purposes of this Report, key management personnel (KMP) of the Group are defined as those persons
having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Group,
directly or indirectly, including a director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company, and its
subsidiaries.
Details of key management personnel:
Brad Underwood (Managing Director/Chairman)
Noel O’Brien (Non-executive Director)
Cecilia Camarri (Non-executive Director)
Mathew Whyte (Non-executive Director and Company Secretary)
Remuneration Philosophy
The performance of the Group depends upon the quality of its Directors and Executives. To prosper the Group
must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled directors and KMP.
To this end Galileo aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their
position and responsibility so as to align the interests of executives with those of shareholders and to ensure
total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
Remuneration and nomination issues are handled at the full Board level. Due to the small number of directors
and KMP no separate committee has been established for this purpose.
Board members, as per groupings detailed below, are responsible for determining and reviewing
compensation arrangements.
In order to maintain good corporate governance, the Non-executive Directors assume responsibility for
determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Executive Directors of the Group. The
Executive Directors in turn are responsible for determining and reviewing the compensation arrangements
for the Non-executive Directors.
The assessment considers the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of KMPs on a
periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring
maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high-quality Board and executive team.
Independent external advice is sought from remuneration consultants when required, however no advice has
been sought during the year ended 30 June 2022. The Corporate Governance Statement provides further
information on the Company’s remuneration governance.
Remuneration structure
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of Non-executive Director and Executive
Director’s remuneration is separate and distinct.
A. Non-executive Directors’ remuneration
Objective
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Group with the ability to attract
and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders.
Structure
The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at commercial market rates for comparable
companies for their time, commitment and responsibilities.
32
GALILEO MINING LTD
ABN 70 104 114 132
On appointment to the Board, all non-executive directors sign a letter of appointment. The letter summarises
the Board policies and terms including remuneration, relevant to the office of director.
The constitution and the ASX Listing rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors
shall be determined from time to time by shareholders at general meeting.
Non-executive directors receive a fixed fee inclusive of superannuation contributions. Fees for non-executive
directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. Subject to approval by shareholders, Non-executive
directors’ remuneration may also include an incentive portion consisting of Options and Performance Rights,
which are granted for the same reasons and objectives and on the same terms as Options granted to Executive
Directors as outlined in Section B below. To this end Non-executive Directors are also entitled to participate
in Galileo’s Long Term Incentive Plan (LTI Plan).
The remuneration of Non-executive Directors for the year ended 30 June 2022 is detailed in the table in
Section C of this Report.
B. Executive Directors’ remuneration
Objective
The Group aims to reward Executive Directors with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their
position and responsibilities within the Group and so as to:
- Align the interests of Executive Directors with those of shareholders.
-
Link rewards with the strategic goals and performance of the Group
-
Ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
Structure
In determining the level of remuneration paid to Executive Directors, the Board takes into account the
activities of the Group and available benchmarks.
An employment contract has been entered into with the Executive Director of Galileo. Details of this contract
are provided in Section D of this Report.
Remuneration consist of the following key elements:
Fixed remuneration
-
- Variable Remuneration – Long Term Incentive (LTI).
The proportion of fixed remuneration and variable remuneration is established for the Executive Director by
the Board. The table in Section C of this Report details the fixed and variable components (%) of the Executive
Directors of Galileo.
Fixed Remuneration
The level of fixed remuneration is set as a cash salary plus superannuation contributions so as to provide a
base level of remuneration which is both appropriate to the position and is competitive in the market.
Variable remuneration – Long Term Incentives (LTI)
Options
LTI grants to executives are delivered in the form of Options.
The table in Section C provides details of Options granted and the value of equity instruments granted,
exercised and lapsed during the year. Options were issued free of charge. Each option entitles the holder to
subscribe for one (1) fully paid ordinary share in Galileo upon the exercise of the option based on achieving
vesting conditions at a $0.20 exercise price. The terms and conditions including the service and performance
criteria that must be met are as follows:-
Each Option will only vest and become exercisable when the 60-day volume weighted average market price
(as defined in the Listing Rules) of Galileo’s quoted Shares first exceeds $0.60 per Share. Options not so
exercised shall automatically expire on the expiry date. Each Option entitles the holder to subscribe for one

GALILEO MINING LTD
ABN 70 104 114 132
Share in the capital of Galileo. Each Share allotted as a result of the exercise of any Option will rank in all
respect pari passu with the existing Shares in the capital of Galileo on issue at the date of allotment.
Relationship between remuneration and the Group’s performance
As the Group is a listed exploration Group, measuring performance is difficult. The most meaningful measure
of internal performance is on goals that have an exploration focus.
In considering the Group’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Board has regard to the
following indices in respect of the current financial year and the previous financial years:

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
The financial report of Galileo Mining Ltd for the year ended 30 June 2022 was authorised for issue in accordance
with a resolution of directors on 18 August 2022.
Galileo Mining Ltd is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on
the Australian Securities Exchange.
The address of the registered office is 13 Colin Street, West Perth WA 6005.
The Group’s principal activity during the year was mineral exploration. Major exploration activities during the
period are outlined in the Review of Operations as contained in the Directors’ Report.
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative
pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The financial report has also been prepared
on a historical cost basis.
For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Group is a for-profit entity.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and the accounting policies below have been
consistently applied to all of the years presented unless otherwise stated. The financial report is for the Group
consisting of Galileo Mining Ltd and its subsidiaries.
(b) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Galileo Mining Ltd (Galileo) and
its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2022 (the Group).
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with
the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the
Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities
of the investee);
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers
all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee:
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there
are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the
Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets,
liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the
statement of comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases
to control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders
of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling
interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of
subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group
assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of
the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

GALILEO MINING LTD
ABN 70 104 114 132
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity
transaction. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary
De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests
De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
Recognises the fair value of any investment retained
Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss
Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or retained
earnings, as appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets
or liabilities
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method.
(c) Compliance with IFRS
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to
International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report,
compromising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting
Standards.
(d) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations
Standards and Interpretations applicable to 30 June 2022
In the period ended 30 June 2022, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and
Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Group and effective for the current reporting
period. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact on the
Group’s accounting policies.
Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted
The Directors have also reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet
adopted as at 30 June 2022. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material
impact of the Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted on the Group.
(e) Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as an
exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where the following conditions are
satisfied:
-
-
the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and
at least one of the following conditions is also met:
-
the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful
development and exploration of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or
- exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the balance date reached a
stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically
recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest
are continuing.
Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore,
studies, exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of
depreciation and amortisation of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities. General and
administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where they
are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that
the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. The
recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which it has
46
GALILEO MINING LTD
ABN 70 104 114 132
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
been allocated being no larger than the relevant area of interest) is estimated to determine the extent of the
impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset
is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased
carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment
loss been recognised for the asset in previous years.
Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the
relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance is then reclassified to
development.
(f) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:
Plant and equipment – 2 to 6 years
Impairment
The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.
For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined
for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs, unless the asset’s value in use can be estimated to
be close to its fair value.
If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the
assets or cash generating units are written down to their recoverable amount.
Disposal
An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits
are expected to arise from the continued use or disposal of the asset.
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in profit or loss in the period the item is
derecognised.
(g) Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any allowance for impairment. Trade receivables
are generally due for settlement within periods ranging from 0 days to 30 days.
The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime
expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based
on days overdue.
(h) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at bank and on hand and
short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash
equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
(i) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past
event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to
settle the obligation at the balance date. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are
47
GALILEO MINING LTD
ABN 70 104 114 132
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflect the time value of money and the risks specific to the
liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised in finance costs.
(j) Other Income
Interest income
Interest income 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.
Government grants
Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised as other income in the Statement
of Comprehensive Income on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the related expenses are
incurred.
(k)
Income tax
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to
be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount
are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of
assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:
except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset
or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects
neither the accounting profit or taxable profit or loss; or
in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and
interest in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be
controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused
tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against
which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry–forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses
can be utilised:
except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from
the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the
time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries, associates and
interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the
temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against
which the temporary differences can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the
deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognised to
the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be
recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year
when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted
or substantively enacted at the balance date.
48
GALILEO MINING LTD
ABN 70 104 114 132
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the Statement
of Comprehensive Income.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and
the same taxation authority.
(l) Other taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation
authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of
the expense item as applicable; and
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of the
receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash
flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation
authority, are classified as operating cash flows.
(m) Trade and other payables
Trade payables and other payables are initially measured at fair value and subsequently carried at amortised
cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial
year that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the
purchase of the goods and services.
Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts
are unsecured and are usually paid with 30 days of recognition.
(n) Employee Entitlements
Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled
wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are
recognised in respect of employees services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the
amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
Long Service Leave
The liability for long service leave is recognised and measured as the present value of expected future
payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Consideration
is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service.
Based on the Company’s experience of employee departures, a long service leave liability is only recognised
once an employee has been employed by the Company for a period of 5 years. Expected future payments
are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national Government bonds with terms to
maturity and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
(o) Contributed equity
Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Group.
Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction
of the share proceeds received.
(p) Earnings/Loss per share (EPS)
Basic EPS is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing
equity (other than dividends), divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any
bonus element.
49
GALILEO MINING LTD
ABN 70 104 114 132
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members, adjusted for:
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends);
the after tax effect of dividend and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have
been recognised as expenses; and
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the
dilution of potential ordinary shares;
divided by the weighted average number or ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted
for any bonus element.
(q) Share-based payment transactions
The Group provides benefits to employees (including directors and executives) of the Group and to third
parties in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees and third parties render services
in exchange for shares or rights over shares (‘equity-settled transactions’).
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the
date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using an appropriate option pricing model.
In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than
conditions linked to the price of the shares of Galileo Mining Ltd (‘market conditions’).
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over
the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant
employees become fully entitled to the award (‘vesting date’).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date
reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion
of the directors of the Company, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available
information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions
being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is
conditional upon a market condition.
Until an award has vested, any amounts recorded are contingent and will be adjusted if more or fewer awards
vest than were originally anticipated to do so. Any award subject to a market condition is considered to vest
irrespective of whether or not that market condition is fulfilled, provided that all other conditions are satisfied.
If the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms
had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair
value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at
the date of modification.
If an equity-settled award is cancelled, other than forfeiture, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of
cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new
award is substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is
granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as
described in the previous paragraph.
The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation
of earnings/loss per share.
For equity-settled share-based payment transactions, the entity shall measure the goods or services received,
and the corresponding increase in equity, directly, at the fair value of the goods or services received, unless
that fair value cannot be estimated reliably, If the entity cannot estimate reliably the fair value of the goods
or services received, the entity shall measure their value, and the corresponding increase in equity, indirectly
by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
(r) Significant Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions
The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and
assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities with the next annual reporting
period are:
(i) Capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure
The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on a number
of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it
successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale.
Factors which could impact the future recoverability include the level of proved, probable and inferred
mineral resources, future technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, future legal
changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices.
To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable
in the future, this will reduce profits and net assets in the period in which this determination is made.
In addition, exploration and evaluation expenditure, other than acquisition costs, is expensed as incurred.
Acquisition costs in relation to mineral tenements are capitalised and carried forward provided the rights
to tenure of the area of the interest are current and such costs are expected to be recouped through
successful development, or by sale, or where exploration and evaluation activities have not, at balance
date, reached a stage to allow a reasonable assessment regarding the existence of economically
recoverable reserves.
(ii) Share-based payment transactions
The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to
the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined
by using either the Trinomial or Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon
which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-
settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. Refer to note 20 further
information.

The Group has certain obligations to perform minimum exploration work and to expend minimum amounts
of money on such work on mining tenements. These obligations may be varied from time to time subject
to approval and are expected to be fulfilled in the normal course of the operations of the Group. These
commitments have not been provided for in the financial report. Due to the nature of the Group’s
operations in exploring and evaluating areas of interest, it is difficult to accurately forecast the nature and
amount of future expenditure beyond the next year. Expenditure may be reduced by seeking exemption
from individual commitments, by relinquishing of tenure or by new joint venture arrangements. Expenditure
may be increased when new tenements are granted or joint venture agreements amended. The minimum
expenditure commitment on the tenements is shown below.

23. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and short-term deposits.
The Group has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade receivables, and trade payables, which
arise directly from its operations and other activities.
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the
basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of
financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Notes 2, 6, 11 and 13 to the financial
statements.
The Group manages its exposure to a variety of financial risks: market risk (interest rate risk), credit risk and
liquidity risk in accordance with specific approved Group policies.
Primary responsibility for the identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board reviews
and agrees policies for managing each of the risks identified.
The Group uses different methods to measure and manage different types of risks to which it is exposed. These
include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rate risk and assessment of market forecast for interest rate.
The Group manages credit risk by only dealing with recognized, creditworthy, third parties and liquidity risk is
monitored through the development of future rolling cash flow forecasts.
Interest rate risk
The Group’s current exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relate primarily to cash assets rates
and is managed by the Board approved investment policy. This policy defines maximum exposures and credit
ratings limits.
The following table summarises the impact of reasonably possible changes on interest rates for the Group at
30 June 2021. The sensitivity is based on the assumption that interest rate changes by 100 basis points with all
other variables held constant. The 100 basis points sensitivity is based on reasonably possible changes over a
financial year, using the observed range of actual historical rates for the preceding 3 year period. The analysis
is performed on the same basis for the comparative period.
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk arises from higher or lower interest income from cash and cash
equivalents. The Parent’s main interest rate risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and other assets with
variable interest rates.

Credit risk
Credit risk arises in the event that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument leading
to financial losses. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities and financing activities
including deposits with banks.

whom funds are deposited or invested, taking into account its financial position and past experiences.
Investment limits are set in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors based on the counterparty
credit rating. The limits are assigned to minimise concentration of risks and mitigate financial loss through
potential counterparty failure. The compliance with credit limits is regularly monitored as part of day-to-day
operations. Any credit concerns are highlighted to senior management.

mix of capital resources for the Group’s capital needs.
Liquidity risk
The responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors.
The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash or credit facilities to meet the operating
requirements of the business and investing excess funds in highly liquid short term investments. The Group’s
liquidity needs can be met through a variety of sources, including: short and long term borrowings and issue

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
Capital risk management
Capital consists of total equity $24,349,620 (2021: $19,238,440).
When managing capital, management’s objective is to ensure the Company continues as a going concern as
well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Management also aims
to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to
shareholders, issue new shares, enter into joint ventures or sell assets.
The entity does not have a defined share buy-back plan.
No dividends were paid in 2021 and no dividend will be paid in 2022.
There is no current intention to incur debt funding on behalf of the Company as on-going exploration
expenditure will be funded via equity or joint ventures with other companies.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
24. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO BALANCE DATE
Subsequent to balance date the Company completed a capital raising (refer ASX announcements 6 and 14 July
2022) to raise $20.4 million (before costs) by way of a placement to institutions and sophisticated investors
(“Placement”). Settlement of the placement occurred on 14 July 2022 when the Company issued 17,000,000 at
an issue price of $1.20 per share. As part of the fee for the lead manager to the Placement the Company also
issued on 14 July 974,615 unquoted Options with an exercise price of $2.40 and an expiry date of 14 July 2022.
On 14 July 2022 the Company announced 1,600,000 fully paid ordinary shares were issued in full satisfaction
of the exercise of 1,600,000 Performance Rights issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of the

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Members of Galileo Mining Ltd
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Galileo Mining Ltd (“the Company”) and its controlled entities
(“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2022,
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 Group is in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001, including:
(a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2022 and of its financial
performance for the year then ended; and
(b) 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 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.
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. We have determined the matters described below to be the key
audit matters to be communicated in our report.
68
Key Audit Matter
How our audit addressed the key audit
matter
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Note 10 to the financial report
In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and
Evaluation of Mineral Resources, the Group capitalises
exploration and evaluation expenditure.
Our audit focussed on the Group’s assessment of the
carrying amount of the capitalised exploration and
evaluation expenditure asset, due to this asset being
the most significant asset of the Group.
Our procedures included but were not
limited to the following:
• We obtained an understanding of the
key processes associated with
management’s review of the carrying
value of the capitalised exploration
and evaluation expenditure asset;
• We
considered
the Directors’
assessment of potential indicators of
impairment;
• We obtained evidence that the Group
has current rights to tenure of its areas
of interest;
• We examined the exploration and
evaluation budget for the year ending
30 June 2023 and discussed with
management the nature of planned
ongoing activities; and
• We substantiated a sample of
capitalised expenditure to underlying
support.
Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2022, but does not include the
financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
report, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the
financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
69
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually
or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users
taken on the basis of this financial report.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional
judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
−
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud
or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a
material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may
involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal
control.
− Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
− Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
− Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events
or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.
If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s
report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to
modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of
our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to
continue as a going concern.
− Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in
a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of
the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we
identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements
regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may
reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit
matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter
should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

REPORT ON THE REMUNERATION REPORT
Opinion on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June
2022.
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Galileo Mining Ltd for the year ended 30 June 2022
complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
Responsibilities
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration
Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian
Auditing Standards.
