On 23 February 2017, Galena Mining Limited (“Galena” or “the Company”) entered into Share Sale Agreement to 
acquire all of the issued capital of Abra Mining Pty Ltd (“Abra”) from Abra’s sole shareholder, Bloomgold Resources 
Pty  Ltd.  The  Company  lodged  a  prospectus  with  ASX  to  enable  active  exploration  and  development  of  Abra 
Projects. The Projects are located 220km north of Meekatharra in Western Australia and are directed toward the 
identification  of  economic  deposits  of  base  metals.  These  metals  are  internationally  traded  and  backed  by 
international exchanges.  

The Mulgul Project (upon listing Galena to hold 100%) is a group of mineral tenements that host a large scale of 
Abra lead and silver deposits as well as other prospects. Previous explorers have identified numerous prospects 
at Mulgul. Anomlies that have been described in historic material include Hyperion, Genie, Thea, Iceberg and Anth. 
Several of these, most notably Hyperion and Genie, have been drill tested and are interpreted by Galena to have 
intersected Abra style mineralisation.

DIRECTOR’S REPORT 
For the period ended 30 June 2017 

Review of Operations (continued) 

The  Jillawarra  Project  (upon  listing  Galena  to  hold  100%)  is  a  group  of  mineral  tenements  that  host  several 
prospects. The tenure lies to the west of and along stride and up-plunge of the sediments that host Abra. Previous 
explorers have utilised a combination of geophysics, geochemistry and performed limited drill testing. The principal 
prospects identified to date include Woodlands, Quartzite Well and Manganese Range. The magnetic geophysics 
that has been used by previous explorers to identify these prospects indicates the presence of very strong magnetic 
anomalies in comparison to Abra. 

Upon the successful listing on ASX, the Company is putting programs in place to undertake exploration activities 
as set out in the Prospectus dated 12 May 2017.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) 

The remuneration report, which forms part of the Directors' Report, outlines the remuneration arrangements in place 
for key management personnel (KMP) who are defined as those persons having the authority and responsibility for 
planning and directing the major activities of the Company, directly and indirectly, including any director (whether 
executive or otherwise). 

Remuneration Philosophy 

The performance of the Company depends on the quality of the Company's Directors, executives and employees 
and therefore the Company must attract, motivate and retain appropriately qualified industry personnel. 

Remuneration policy 

Remuneration  levels  for  the  executives  are  competitively  set  to  attract  the  most  qualified  and  experienced 
candidates, taking into account prevailing market conditions and the individual's experience and qualifications. 

During  the  year,  the  Company  did  not  have  a  separately  established  remuneration  committee.  The  Board  is 
responsible  for  determining  and  reviewing  remuneration  arrangements  for  the  executive  and  non-executive 
Directors. 

The remuneration of executive and non-executive Directors is not dependent on the satisfaction of performance 
conditions.  Remuneration  and  share  based  payments  are  issued  to  align  Directors'  interest  with  that  of 
shareholders.

2017 for Messrs. Byass, Downes and Cairns and as per an appointment letter dated 12 July 2017 for Mr Morrison.

options exercisable at $0.30 on 30 June 2020 and 1,000,000 options exercisable at $0.40 on 30 June 2021. The 
options were issued to Directors prior to the period end. The options were not issued with performance criteria. 

The Company's Constitution provides that the remuneration of Non-Executive Directors will not be more than the 
aggregate fixed sum determined by a general meeting. Before a determination is made by the Company in a general 
meeting, the aggregate  sum of  fees  payable by  the  Company  to  the  Non-Executive  Directors  is  a  maximum  of 
$500,000 per annum. Summary details of remuneration of the Non-Executive Directors are provided in the table 
below. The remuneration is not dependent on the satisfaction of a performance condition.

Future Developments, Prospects and Business Strategies 

Further  information,  other  than  as  disclosed  in  this  report,  about  likely  developments  in  the  operations  of  the 
Company and the expected results of those operations in future periods has not been included in this report as 
disclosure of this information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Company. 

Environmental Issues  

The  operations  and proposed  activities of  the  Company  are  subject  to  State  and  Federal  laws  and  regulations 
concerning the environment.  As with most exploration  projects and mining operations, the Company’s activities 
are  expected  to  have  an  impact  on  the  environment,  particularly  if  advanced  exploration  or  field  development 
proceeds. It is the Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, 
including  compliance  with  all  environmental  laws.  In  this  regard,  the  Department  of  Minerals  and  Petroleum  of 
Western Australia from time to time, review the environmental bonds that are placed on permits.  The Directors are 
not in a position to state whether a review is imminent or whether the outcome of such a review would be detrimental 
to the funding needs of the Company.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

NOTE 1: 

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

These financial statements and notes represent those of Galena Mining Limited (the “Company”). Galena Mining is a 
public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. 

The  financial  statements  were  authorised  for  issue  on 28th September  2017 by  the directors  of the  Company.  The 
directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. 

Basis of Preparation 
The  financial  statements  are  general  purpose  financial  statements  that  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with 
Australian  Accounting  Standards,  Australian  Accounting  Interpretations,  other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the 
Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The Company is a for-profit entity for 
financial reporting purposes under the Australian Accounting Standards. 

Australian  Accounting  Standards set out accounting  policies  that  the  AASB has  concluded  would  result  in  financial 
statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  ensures  that  the  financial  statements  and  notes  also  comply  with  International 
Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this 
financial report are presented below. They have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated. 

The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified where 
applicable, by the measurement at fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities. 

Comparatives 
Galena Mining Limited was incorporated on  7 December 2016 and this is the Company’s first financial report since 
incorporation. As a result, there are no comparatives to include in the 30 June 2017 financial report. 

Accounting Policies 
The  following  is  a  summary  of  the  material  accounting  policies  adopted  by  the  Company  in  the  preparation  of  the 
financial report.  

a) 

Going Concern 

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business 
activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. 

The Company incurred a loss for the period of $726,328 and net cash outflows from operating activities of $331,797. 
These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to 
continue as a going concern.  

Subsequent to period end, the Company raised $6 million before costs upon admission to the ASX. In addition, the 
directors have prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Company will have sufficient cash flows to meet 
all commitments and working capital requirements for the 12 month period from the date of signing this financial report. 

Based on the cash flow forecasts and other factors referred to above, the directors are satisfied that the going concern 
basis of preparation is appropriate.  

Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and extinguish 
its  liabilities  other  than  in  the  normal  course  of  business  and  at  amounts  different  to  those  stated  in  the  financial 
statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of 
asset carrying amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable 
to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.

b) 

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. The Chief Operating Decision Maker is 
responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance. 

c) 

Foreign Currency Translation 

The  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Australian  dollars,  which  is  Galena  Mining  Limited’s  functional  and 
presentation currency. 

d) 

Income Tax 

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

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

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the 
period as well unused tax losses. 

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss 
when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity. 

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

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is 
probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset 
is  realised  or  the  liability  is  settled,  based  on  tax  rates  enacted  or  substantively  enacted  at  reporting  date.    Their 
measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the 
related asset or liability. 

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

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net 
settlement  or  simultaneous  realisation  and  settlement  of  the  respective  asset  and  liability  will  occur.    Deferred  tax 
assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities 
relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities 
where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability 
will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered 
or settled.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

NOTE 1: 

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  

e) 

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 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 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.  

f) 

Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure 

Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These 
costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development 
of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the 
existence of economically recoverable reserves. 

Accumulated  costs  in  relation  to  an  abandoned  area  are  written  off  in  full  against  profit  in  the  period  in  which  the 
decision to abandon the area is made.  

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward 
costs in relation to that area of interest. 

Costs of site restoration are provided over the life of the facility from when exploration commences and are included in 
the  costs  of  that  stage.  Site  restoration  costs  include  the  dismantling  and  removal  of  mining  plant,  equipment  and 
building structures, waste removal, and rehabilitation of the site in accordance with clauses of the mining permits. Such 
costs  have  been  determined  using  estimates  of  future  costs,  current  legal  requirements  and  technology  on  an 
undiscounted basis. 

Any  changes  in  the  estimates  for  the  costs  are  accounted on  a  prospective  basis.  In  determining  the  costs  of  site 
restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration due to community expectations and 
future  legislation.  Accordingly,  the  costs  have  been  determined  on  the  basis  that  the  restoration  will  be  completed 
within one period of abandoning the site.  

g) 

Financial Instruments 

Recognition and Initial Measurement  

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions 
to  the  instrument.  For  financial  assets,  this  is  equivalent  to  the  date  that  the  company  commits  itself  to  either  the 
purchase or sale of the asset. 

Financial  instruments  are  initially  measured  at  fair  value  plus  transactions  costs  except  where  the  instrument  is 
classified ‘at fair value through profit or loss in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. 

Classification and Subsequent Measurement 

Financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest method, 
or cost. 

Amortised  cost  is  calculated as  the  amount  at  which  the  financial  asset  or  financial  liability  is  measure  at  initial 
recognition  less  principal  repayments  and  any  reduction  for  impairment,  and  adjusted  for  any  cumulative 
amortization of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity a mount calculated using the effective 
interest method.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  

g) 

Financial Instruments (continued) 

Classification and Subsequent Measurement 

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted  investments. Valuation techniques are applied 
to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar 
instruments and option pricing models. 

The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is 
equivalent to the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and 
other premiums or discounts) over the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of 
the financial instruments to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected 
future  net  cash  flows  will  necessitate  an  adjustment  to  the  carrying  amount  with  a  consequential  recognition  of  an 
income or expense item in profit or loss. 

The Company does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to 
the requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments. 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 

(i) 
Financial assets are classified at “fair value through profit or loss” when they are held for trading for the purpose of 
short-term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an 
accounting  mismatch  or  to  enable  performance  evaluation  where  a  group  of  financial  assets  is  managed  by  key 
management  personnel  on  a  fair  value  basis  in  accordance  with  a  documented  risk  management  or  investment 
strategy. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying amount being included in profit 
or loss. 

Loans and receivables 

(ii) 
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in 
an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. 

Loans and receivables are included in current assets, where they are expected to mature within 12 months after the 
end of the reporting period. 

Held-to-maturity investments 

(iii) 
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable 
payments, and it is the Company’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured 
at amortised cost. 

h) 

Financial Instruments 

Held-to-maturity investments are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to mature within 
12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other investments are classified as current assets. 

Available-for-sale investments 

(iv) 
Available-for-sale investments are non-derivative financial assets that are either not capable of being classified into 
other categories of financial assets due to their nature or they are designated as such by management. They comprise 
investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments. 

They  are  subsequently  measured  at  fair  value  with  any  remeasurements other  than  impairment losses  and  foreign 
exchange gains and losses recognised in other comprehensive income. When the financial asset is derecognised, the 
cumulative gain or loss pertaining to that asset previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified 
into profit or loss. 

Available-for-sale  financial  assets  are  classified  as  non-current  assets  when  they  are  expected  to  be  sold  after  12 
months from the end of the reporting period. All other available-for-sale financial assets are classified as current assets.

Financial Liabilities 

(v) 
Non-derivative financial liabilities other than financial guarantees are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains 
or  losses  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  through  the  amortisation  process  and  when  the  financial  liability  is 
derecognised. 

i) 

Impairment of Assets 

At  the  end  of  each  reporting  date,  the  Company  assesses  whether  there  is  any  indication  that  an  asset  may  be 
impaired.  The  assessment  will  include  the  consideration  of  external  and  internal  sources  of  information  including 
dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. 
If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to 
sell  and  value  in  use,  is  compared  to  the  asset’s  carrying  value.  Any  excess  of  the  asset’s  carrying  value  over  its 
recoverable amount is expensed. 

Where  it  is  not  possible  to  estimate  the  recoverable  amount  of  an  individual  asset,  the  Company  estimates  the 
recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.  

j) 

Employee Benefits 

Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to 
balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within a 12 month period have been measured at the 
amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than 
12  months  have  been  measured  at  the  present  value  of  the  estimated  future  cash  outflows  to  be  made  for  those 
benefits.  

k) 

Equity-settled compensation  

The Company operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes.  The fair value of 
the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the 
vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account.  The fair value of shares is ascertained as the 
market bid price.  The fair value of options is ascertained using a Black –Scholes pricing model which incorporates all 
market vesting conditions.  The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of 
each reporting date such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments 
granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. 

l) 

Fair Value Measurement 

When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial is measures at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, 
the fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly 
transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place 
either; in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. 

Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability 
assuming they act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on 
its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data 
are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use 
of unobservable inputs. 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified, into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that reflects 
the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed at each reporting date 
and transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to 
the fair value measurement. 

For  recurring  and non-recurring  fair  value measurements, external  valuers may  be  used  when  internal  expertise  is 
either not available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market 
knowledge and reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to 
another, an analysis is undertaken, which includes a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and 
a comparison, where applicable, with external sources of data.

m) 

Issued Capital 

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. 

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. 

n) 

Earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share 

Basic  earnings  per  share  is  calculated  by  dividing  the  profit  attributable  to  the  owners  of  Galena  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. 

o) 

Provisions 

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

p) 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid 
investments with original maturities of 3 months or less. 

q) 

Revenue 

Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial 
assets. 

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). 

r) 

Borrowing Costs 

All borrowing costs are recognised as expense in the period in which they are incurred. 

s) 

Goods and Services Tax (GST) 

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

Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing 
and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. 

t) 

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments 

The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge 
and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on 
current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Company.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments (continued) 

Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure 

Exploration and evaluation costs are carried forward where right of tenure of the area of interest is current.  These 
costs are carried forward in respect of an area that has not at balance date reached a stage that permits reasonable 
assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves, refer to the accounting policy stated in note 1(d). 
Costs incurred in relation to the Abra Project have been expensed during the period and will continue to be expensed 
until the acquisition of Abra is complete. 

Share based payment transactions 

The Company 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.  Significant judgement may be required in determining the 
valuation technique adopted. The fair value of the options issued in the current period are determined by an internal 
valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the assumptions  detailed in note 13. The assumptions 
detailed in this note are also judgemental.   

For equity transactions with consultants and other employees, the fair value reflects the value attributable to services 
where applicable. Where there is no quantifiable value of services the value of options is calculated using the Black 
and Scholes option pricing model. 

For instruments issued with market-based conditions, alternative valuation methodologies would be adopted.  

u) 

New accounting standards for application in the current period 

In the year ended 30 June 2017, the Company has reviewed all of the new and revised Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are relevant to its operations and effective 
for the current annual reporting period.   

It has been determined by the Company that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards 
and Interpretations on its business and, therefore, no change is necessary to the Company accounting policies. 

v) 

New accounting standards for application in future periods 

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 company for  the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2017. The 
company's  assessment  of  the  impact  of  these  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations,  most 
relevant to the company, is set out below. 

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard replaces 
all previous versions of AASB 9 and completes the project to replace IAS 39 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and 
Measurement'. AASB 9 introduces new classification and measurement models for financial assets. A financial asset 
shall be measured at amortised cost, if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to 
collect  contractual  cash  flows,  which  arise  on  specified  dates  and  solely  principal  and  interest.  All  other  financial 
instrument assets are to be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss unless the entity makes an 
irrevocable  election  on  initial  recognition  to  present  gains  and  losses  on  equity  instruments  (that  are  not  held-for-
trading) in other comprehensive income ('OCI'). For financial liabilities, the standard requires the portion of the change 
in fair value that relates to the entity's own credit risk to be presented in OCI (unless it would create an accounting 
mismatch). New simpler hedge accounting requirements are intended to more closely align the accounting treatment 
with the risk management activities of the entity. New impairment requirements will use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') 
model to recognise an allowance. Impairment will be measured under a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk 
on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is 
adopted. The standard introduces additional new disclosures. The Company will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018 
and the Company expects the impact to be insignificant as there is no hedge instrument in the Company as at the date 
of these financial statements

v) 

New accounting standards for application in future periods (continued) 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard provides a 
single standard for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to 
depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which 
the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard will require: contracts (either 
written,  verbal  or  implied)  to  be  identified,  together  with  the  separate  performance  obligations  within  the  contract; 
determine the transaction price, adjusted for the time value of money excluding credit risk; allocation of the transaction 
price to the separate performance obligations on a basis of relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or 
service,  or  estimation  approach  if  no  distinct  observable  prices  exist;  and  recognition  of  revenue  when  each 
performance  obligation  is  satisfied.  Credit  risk  will  be  presented  separately  as  an  expense  rather  than  adjusted  to 
revenue. For goods, the performance obligation would be satisfied when the customer obtains control of the goods. 
For  services,  the  performance  obligation  is satisfied  when  the  service  has  been  provided,  typically  for  promises  to 
transfer services to customers. For performance obligations satisfied over time, an entity would select an appropriate 
measure of progress to determine how much revenue should be recognised as the performance obligation is satisfied. 
Contracts with customers will be presented in an entity's statement of financial position as a contract liability, a contract 
asset, or a receivable, depending on the relationship between the entity's performance and the customer's payment. 
Sufficient quantitative and qualitative disclosure is required to enable users to understand the contracts with customers; 
the significant judgments made in applying the guidance to those contracts; and any assets recognised from the costs 
to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. The Company will adopt this standard from 1 July 2018. The impact of its 
adoption is expected to be insignificant based on current levels of activity and will be reassessed once the Company 
generates revenue. 

AASB 16 Leases 
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces 
AASB 117 'Leases' and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Subject to 
exceptions, a 'right-of-use' asset will be capitalised in the statement of financial position, measured at the present value 
of the unavoidable future lease payments to be made over the lease term. The exceptions relate to short-term leases 
of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets (such as personal computers and small office furniture) where an 
accounting policy choice exists whereby either a 'right-of-use' asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to 
profit or loss as incurred. A liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised, adjusted for lease 
prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, removal 
or dismantling costs. Straight-line operating lease expense recognition will be replaced with a depreciation charge for 
the leased asset (included in operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease liability (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 will be improved as the operating expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation 
in  profit  or  loss  under  AASB  16.  For  classification  within  the  statement  of  cash  flows,  the  lease  payments  will  be 
separated into both a principal (financing activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities) component. 
For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases. The Company will 
adopt this standard from 1 July 2019 but the impact of its adoption is yet to be assessed by the Company. The impact 
of its adoption would be insignificant based on current activity.

Ordinary  shares  participate  in  dividends  and  the  proceeds  on  winding  up  of  the  Company  in  proportion  to  the 
number of shares held. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value. 

At the shareholders’ meetings each ordinary share is entitled to one vote when a poll is called, otherwise each 
shareholder has one vote on a show of hands. 

Capital risk management 

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so 
that it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. 

The Company’s capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets. 

Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, being mineral exploration, it does not have ready access to credit 
facilities,  with  the  primary  source  of  funding  being  equity  raisings.  Accordingly,  the  objective  of  the  Company’s 
capital risk management is to balance the current working capital position against the requirements of the Company 
to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. This is achieved by maintaining appropriate liquidity to 
meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required.

NOTE 16:  OPERATING SEGMENTS  

The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by 
the board of directors (chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation 
of  resources.    Once  the  Company  acquires  Abra  Project,  it  will  be  managed  primarily  on  the  basis  of  one 
geographical segment being Australia, and two business segments being mineral exploration and treasury. 

NOTE 17: 

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 

The  Company’s  financial  instruments  consist mainly  of  deposits  with  banks,  accounts  receivable  and  accounts 
payable. 

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the oversight and management of the Company’s exposure to 
a variety of financial risks (including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk). 

Credit risk 
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date to 
recognised  financial  assets,  is  the  carrying  amount,  net  of  any  provisions  for  impairment  of  those  assets,  as 
disclosed in the Statement of Financial Position and notes to the financial statements. 

The  Company  has  adopted  a  policy  of  only  dealing  with  creditworthy  counterparties  and  obtaining  sufficient 
collateral  where  appropriate,  as  a  means  of  mitigating  the  risk  of  financial  loss  from  defaults.  The  Company’s 
exposure  and  the  credit  ratings  of  its  counterparties  are  continuously  monitored  and  the  aggregate  value  of 
transactions is spread amongst approved counterparties. 

The company does not have any collateral. Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions 
is managed by the board.  The board’s policy requires that surplus funds are only invested with counterparties with 
a Standard & Poor’s rating of at least AA-.  All of the Company’s surplus funds are invested with AA Rated financial 
institutions. 

The Company does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or Company of receivables 
under financial instruments entered into by the Company. 

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

The responsibility with liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors. The Company manages liquidity 
risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and ensuring that adequate working capital is maintained. The Company’s 
policy is to ensure that it has sufficient cash reserves to carry out its planned exploration activities over the next 12 
months.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 

TO THE MEMBERS OF GALENA MINING LIMITED 

Report on the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Galena Mining Limited (the company), which comprises 
the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the period 7 December 2016 
to  30  June  2017  (“period”),  notes  comprising  a  summary  of  significant  accounting  policies  and  other 
explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the company. 

In our opinion: 

a)  The  financial  report  of  Galena  Mining  Limited  is  in  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001, 

including: 

i) 

Giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 30 June 2017  and of its 
performance for the period ended on that date; and 

ii) 

Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for Opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we 
comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to 
obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  financial  report  is  free  from  material  misstatement.  Our 
responsibilities  under  those  standards  are  further  described  in  the  Auditor’s  Responsibility  section  of  our 
report.  

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

Independence 

We  are  independent  of  the  company  in  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001  and  the  ethical 
requirements  of  the  Accounting  Professional  and  Ethical  Standards  Board’s  APES  110  Code  of  Ethics  for 
Professional Accountants (the code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have 
also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 

Key Audit Matter 

The key audit matter in our professional judgement, is of most significance to our audit of the financial report 
of the current period. This matter was 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 this matter. For the matter 
below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

Share based payment 

Why significant 

  How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

During the period ended 30 June 2017 the recognised 
value  of  share  based  payments 
totalled 
$323,074  as  disclosed  in  Note  13.  The  valuation  of 
share based payments is highly judgemental.   

issued 

A description of the judgement and estimates pertaining 
to share based payment transactions is outlined in Note 
1 (t). Significant judgement is required in relation to:  

 
 

The valuation technique; and 
The  assumptions  and  inputs  used  within  the 
model. 

Our work included the following procedures: 

  Obtaining management’s valuation model and 

o  Assessing reasonableness of the inputs utilised 
including strike price, share price at grant date, 
interest rate and dividend yield; 

o  Considering the expiry term; 
o  Performing recalculation on volatility adopted by 

management; 

o  Comparing industry volatility averages; and 
o  Preforming  valuation  recalculation  of  vesting 

expense.  

  Reviewing minutes of directors meetings, registers of 
members  and  securities  holdings  and  enquiring  of 
management to ensure all share based payments had 
been recognised; 

  Assessed 

the  appropriateness  of 
disclosures in Note 1 (t) and Note 13. 

the 

related 

Other Information 

Other  information  is  financial  and  non-financial  information  in  the  annual  report  of  the  company  which  is 
provided in addition to the Financial Report and the Auditor’s Report. The directors are responsible for Other 
Information in the annual report. 

The  Other  Information  we  obtained  prior  to  the  date  of  this  Auditor’s  Report  was  the  Director’s  Report, 
Shareholder  Information,  Schedule  of  Exploration  Tenements  and  Additional  Information  for  Public  Listed 
Companies. The remaining Other Information, if any is expected to be made available to us after the date of 
the Auditor’s Report. 

Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, the auditor does 
not and will not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of 
the Remuneration Report. 

In connection with our audit of the Financial Report, our responsibility is to read the Other Information. In doing 
so,  we  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. 

We are required to report if we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other Information in the 
Financial Report and based on the work we have performed on the Other Information that we obtained prior 
the date of this Auditor’s Report we have nothing to report. 

Directors’ Responsibilities 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 Note 1, the 
Directors also state, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial 
Statements, that the financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards. 

– 37 – 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue 
as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using a going concern 
basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have 
no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit.  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 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 Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and 
maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit.  

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the 
financial report. 

The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including assessment of the risks of material 
misstatement of the financial report,  whether due to fraud  or error. In making those risk assessments, the 
auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial report that gives a true 
and fair view 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 entity’s internal control.  

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. 

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of 
accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial 
report. 

We 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 company’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 company to cease to continue as a going concern. 

We 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 obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business 
activities within the company to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, 
supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.  

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.  

– 38 – 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The  Auditing  Standards  require  that  we  comply  with  relevant  ethical  requirements  relating  to  audit 
engagements. 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 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 

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in the directors’ report for the period ended 30 June 2017.  

Opinion 

In  our  opinion,  the  Remuneration  Report  of  Galena  Mining  Limited  for  the  period  ended  30  June  2017, 
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.
