DIRECTORS’ REPORT
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.

their roles as Directors of the Company.
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.
Directors are entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, accommodation and other expenses incurred in
consequence of their attendance at meetings of Directors and otherwise in the execution of their duties as Directors.
A Director may also be paid additional amounts as fees or as the Directors determine where a Director performs
extra services or makes any special exertions, which in the option of the Directors are outside the scope of the
ordinary duties of a Director.
Other Executives Remuneration
Mr Alexander Molyneux

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
__________________________________________________________________________________________
For the financial year, the Company’s focus remained the continued development of its Abra Base Metals Project
(“Abra” or the “Project”), which is a globally significant lead-silver project located in the Gascoyne region of
Western Australia (between the towns of Newman and Meekatharra, approximately 110 kilometres from Sandfire’s
DeGrussa Project).
Other than Abra, Galena holds a strategic package of exploration licences over the Jillawarra sub-basin that
extends over approximately 20-80 kilometres west of Abra (“Jillawarra Prospects”) and continues to undertake
exploration there.
ABRA BASE METALS PROJECT
Abra comprises a granted Mining Lease, M52/0776 and is surrounded by the Exploration Licence E52/1455,
together with several co-located General Purpose and Miscellaneous Leases. The Project is 100% owned by
AMPL, which as at 30 June 2019 was 91.11% owned by Galena, with the remainder owned by Toho (pursuant to
an Investment Agreement and Shareholders Agreement with Toho). Subsequent to the end of the financial year,
Toho invested a further $10 million into AMPL in accordance with the Investment Agreement thereby diluting
Galena to 86.67%.
Abra is well located with the availability of key infrastructure and close access to water, public roads, existing mining
operations and the towns of Meekatharra and Newman. Lead-silver concentrate will be transported by road to the
port of Geraldton (or potentially Port Hedland) in the mid-west of Western Australia.
Excellent pre-feasibility study (“PFS”)
Galena completed and announced a PFS for Abra (see Galena ASX announcement of 25 September 2018), with
the outcomes considered excellent.
The PFS envisaged a 1.2 million tonne per annum (Mtpa) throughput rate over an initial approximately 14-year life,
targeting high-grade lead-silver mineralisation ranging between 6.7-10.8% lead and 14.4-43.0g/t silver over the life
of mine (“LOM”). The PFS combines an underground mining operation with a processing plant employing
conventional milling and flotation. The production rate was selected after analysing different ore grades against
practical underground mining rates and optimising the Project’s future infrastructure, which is based on different
capital cost and grade optimisation scenarios. The PFS was superseded by the definitive/bankable feasibility study
(“FS”) announced shortly after the end of the financial year.
FS
On 11 October 2018, FS works for Abra were formally commenced with the appointment of leading Australian
engineering consulting and contracting company GR Engineering Services Limited (“GR Engineering”) (ASX:
GNG) to undertake key portions of the FS related to plant design, capital cost and operating cost estimation,
process and non-process infrastructure evaluation. During the past eleven years GR Engineering has completed
more than 40 design and construction projects and over 160 feasibility studies including several ‘flagship’ Australian
base metals projects.
The FS works continued during the financial year and outstanding results were announced subsequent to the year-
end (see Galena ASX announcement of 22 July 2019).
The FS envisages the same overall development concept of the PFS involving development of an underground
mine and conventional flotation concentration processing facility with a 16-year life producing a high-value, high-
grade lead-silver concentrate containing approximately 95kt of lead and 805koz of silver per year after ramp-up.
Based on a pre-development capital expenditure estimate of A$170 million, the FS modelled a pre-tax net present
value for Abra (at an 8% discount rate) of A$553 million and an internal rate of return of 39%.

Updated Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve
Concurrent with the announcement of the PFS in September 2018, the Company announced its ‘maiden’ Ore
Reserve. However, extensive drilling was ongoing at that time culminating in the 18 December 2018 announcement
of completion of an updated JORC Code compliant Mineral Resource estimate (“December 2018 Resource”) for
Abra, which was independently prepared by Optiro Pty Ltd (“Optiro”). In addition, Galena prepared an updated
JORC Code compliant Ore Reserve estimate (“December 2018 Reserve”).

Project development drilling
On 22 March 2019, Galena announced commencement of initial project development drilling program at Abra. The
Company then increased the scope of the project development drilling program to target drilling approximately
18,000 new cumulative metres of diamond core drill-holes at Abra adding approximately 30% new data to the
Project’s total drilling database.
One of the main benefits of the initial project development drilling program is to increase drilling density (25m x
25m or better) over key areas of the first three years production horizons and subsequently de-risk the mine plan
as early as possible. The program will generally aim to increase confidence within areas of the Abra Resource
already categorized as Indicated and Inferred.
By the end of the financial year, 27 drill-holes had been completed for 12,190 cumulative linear metres (i.e.
approximately 68% of the program). Assays for the six holes (AB103-AB108) were publicly announced on 5 June
2019 (see Galena ASX announcement), including the following significant intersections:
• 23.1m at 16.7% lead and 82g/t silver (including 3.5m at 51.4% lead and 95g/t silver) in hole AB107
• 19.3m at 13.4% lead and 50g/t silver in hole AB103
• 11.0m at 8.8% lead and 21g/t silver in hole AB104

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Initial project development activities
During the financial year, initial Abra development activities were commenced.
Three production water bores were drilled during the project development drilling program and those holes are
expected to provide enough water for project construction and commissioning (discussed further in the Company’s
FS disclosure – see Galena ASX Announcement of 22 July 2019).
An initial camp consisting of 80 accommodation units, the full-scale kitchen and mess hall and certain ancillaries
were purchased from a permanent modular construction manufacturer. The facilities were ordered to meet the
initial deployment of the construction workforce to Abra and to form the basis of the main long-term camp such that
additional accommodation units will be added over time to eventually have the capacity to house the full workforce
required for steady-state commercial operations. The facilities ordered are expected to be available ex-works
during the first quarter of the financial year to 30 June 2020.
Abra’s project design incorporates cement paste backfill in the underground mine plan, with paste being prepared
by an onsite pastefill plant utilising approximately 1/3 of plant tailings as raw material for the paste. In April 2019,
the Company entered into an Option Agreement that secures the right to purchase an existing pastefill plant that
meets the Project requirements. The intention is to exercise the right to purchase the pastefill plant at any time until
late April 2020 and then have the paste plant refurbished and relocated to Abra for use.
During the financial year a primary ventilation fan was ordered for fabrication as a key long lead-time item for the
underground mine development.
Final permitting
During the financial year, Galena made and continued to progress Works Approval submissions for construction of
the mine, proposed processing plant and tailings storage facilities for Abra with the Western Australian Department
of Water and Environmental Regulation (“DWER”). At the same time, Galena also continued discussions with the
Western Australian Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (“DMIRS”) regarding the Mining Proposal,
Mine Closure Plan and Environmental Management System applications for Abra.
Subsequent to the financial year, Galena announced that all major DWER and DMIRS approvals were concluded
(see Galena ASX announcement of 3 July 2019).
Commercial initiatives in support of Abra development – project financing
On 30 January 2019, Galena announced a transaction to bring in $90 million in project equity for Abra from Toho.
Then in April, the Company executed definitive agreements with Toho setting out the terms for Toho’s investment
of $90 million in three tranches for a 40% ownership interest in Galena’s previously wholly-owned subsidiary, AMPL
(the “Toho Transaction”). Key relevant terms of the Toho Transaction include:
•
Investment and investment structure – $90 million total investment to be made via the subscription of
new ordinary shares in AMPL such that Toho owns 40% of AMPL on completion of the full investment and
Galena retains 60%.
• Tranched payment – $20 million will be paid on initial closing of the transaction (for 8.89% of AMPL); $10
million will be paid once Galena issues the DFS for Abra (for a further 4.44% of AMPL); and $60 million will
be paid once project financing debt for the Project has been confirmed (for a further 26.67% of AMPL, taking
Toho’s total ownership in AMPL to 40.00%).
• Toho funding support – Toho will assist AMPL to procure, by leveraging the attractive programmes
available to it from its relationships with Japanese lenders, a contribution to project financing debt.
• Repayment of historical shareholder loans to Galena – As part of the Transaction, AMPL will repay
$10 million of historical shareholder loans back to Galena.
• Off-take – Galena and Toho will each enter into off-take agreements with AMPL to purchase their respective
share of AMPL’s high-grade high-value lead-silver concentrate on arms-length, benchmark terms. Each
party will have rights to market and on-sell their respective share of purchased off-take.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
__________________________________________________________________________________________
• During the financial year the first $20 million tranche was received from Toho and subsequent to the financial
year-end, the second $10 million tranche was also received (see Galena ASX announcement of 2 August
2019).
During the financial year, the Company and AMPL continued to advance discussions with multiple banks with
respect to the provision of project financing debt.
Near-Project exploration
During the financial year two drill holes were advanced within the greater Hyperion Prospect, which lies within
E52/1455 (i.e. part of AMPL).
The first diamond core drill hole, HY003, was drilled approximately 1.4 kilometres to the west of the historic HY1
drill hole which intersected 6.05 metres at 9.86% lead in the equivalent stratigraphic position of Abra’s Apron Zone.
HY003 was targeting a gravity and magnetic anomaly that was interpreted as being a western extension to the
main Hyperion Prospect which includes HY1. HY003 finished at 694 metres and did not intersect any significant
mineralisation.
The second drill hole at Hyperion, HYRC002D is a diamond core extension of a 2017 RC pre-collar, HYRC002
which had finished at 218 metres. The diamond core tail finished at 670 metres. HYRC002D is approximately 400
metres west of HY1 and was also targeting a gravity and magnetic anomaly interpreted as being an extension of
the main Hyperion Prospect. Noteworthy mineralisation, was intersected in the equivalent stratigraphic position of
Abra’s Apron Zone. This included 6.6 metres at 2.7% lead and 27g/t silver from 615.8 metres, including 0.3 metres
at 17.8% lead and 112g/t silver from 620.6 metres.
The Hyperion Prospect remains open to the north, east and south and continues to warrant further drill testing.
JILAWARRA PROSPECTS
Galena’s Jillawarra Prospects consist of Woodlands, Manganese Range and Quartzite Well, which are located
between approximately 20-80 kilometres or further to the west of Abra and reside within three granted Exploration
Licences, being: E52/1413; E52/3575 and E52/3630.
During the financial year, 3D inversion modelling of gravity and magnetic data at Woodlands and Manganese
Range delineated strong anomalies at both locations. These anomalies are interpreted as being prospective for
copper, gold, lead and silver and have yet to be tested with drilling.
CORPORATE
$10 million strategic investment secured for Galena from Kingfisher Capital / Tim Roberts
During the financial year, Kingfisher Capital Pte Ltd (“Kingfisher Capital”) (an investment vehicle of Tim Roberts)
invested $10 million into Galena in two tranches of $5 million each at $0.40/share. Each tranche also included the
additional issue to Kingfisher Capital of 2.5 million unlisted options to acquire Galena shares (1.25 million with a
strike price of $0.50/share and 1.25 million with a strike price of $0.60/share), with an expiry of four years from
issuance. The first $5 million tranche and combined issuance of shares and options in the Company was completed
on 26 March 2019 and on 17 April 2019, the second and final $5 million tranche and combined issuance of shares
and options in the Company was completed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1:
STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These financial statements and notes represent those of Galena Mining Limited and its controlled entities (together
referred to as the “Company” or the “Group” or the “Consolidated Entity”). Galena Mining is a public company,
incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The Consolidated Entity or the Group refers to the Company and the entity
controlled during the year and at the year end.
The financial statements were authorised for issue on 25th September 2019 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.
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 Group incurred a loss for the period of $2,420,609 and net cash outflows from operating activities of $9,366,750.
These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company and
Group to continue as a going concern.
The directors believe the Group is a going concern as they have appropriate plans to raise additional capital to fund
forecasted activities.
Should the Company or the Group 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 or Group 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.

NOTE 1:

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.
On 15 February 2019 the Directors resolved to revise the policy pertaining to AASB 6, Exploration for and Evaluation
of Mineral Resources with retrospective effect, whereby all costs incurred in acquisition and evaluation activities would
be expensed in the period in which they are incurred unless the expenditure related to an area that had either: (a)
already demonstrated economic or development potential; or (b) was integrated with a license that had already
demonstrated economic or development potential, considered part of the overall area of interest.
The Directors are of the view that this change in accounting policy provides a more conservative accounting approach.
In accordance with AASB 108, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, this change in the
application of AASB 6 requires a restatement of prior period comparatives.

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 amount calculated using the effective
interest method.
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.
Financial Liabilities
(iii)
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.

h)
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.
i)
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.
j)
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.
k)
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.
l)
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.

m)
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.
n)
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.
o)
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.
p)
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).
q)
Borrowing Costs
All borrowing costs are recognised as expense in the period in which they are incurred.
r)
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.

s)
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent, Galena Mining
Limited and all of the subsidiaries (including any structured entities). Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The
parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and
has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 23.
The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group
from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the
date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between
group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and
adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non-controlling
interests”. The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries
and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non-
controlling interests’ proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling
interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling
interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of
comprehensive income.
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.
Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Exploration and evaluation costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred unless the expenditure related
to an area that had either: (a) already demonstrated economic or development potential; or (b) was integrated with a
license that had already demonstrated economic or development potential, considered part of the overall area of
interest.
Share-based payment transactions
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity
instruments at the date at which they are granted. 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 17. 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 or in the case of share grants, the fair value of an ordinary share is utilised.
For instruments issued with market-based conditions, alternative valuation methodologies would be adopted.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1:
STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
u)
New accounting standards for application in the current period
In the year ended 30 June 2019, the Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and
Interpretations issued by the AASB that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the Consolidated Entity:
AASB 9 Financial Instruments
The consolidated entity has adopted AASB 9 from 1 July 2018. The standard introduced 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 that are solely principal and interest. A debt investment shall be measured at fair value through other
comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is to both hold assets in order to collect
contractual cash flows which arise on specified dates that are solely principal and interest as well as selling the asset
on the basis of its fair value. All other financial assets are 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 or contingent consideration recognised in a business combination) in other comprehensive
income ('OCI'). Despite these requirements, a financial asset may be irrevocably designated as measured at fair value
through profit or loss to reduce the effect of, or eliminate, an accounting mismatch. For financial liabilities designated
at fair value through profit or loss, 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 use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognise an allowance. Impairment
is measured using 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. For receivables, a simplified approach to
measuring expected credit losses using a lifetime expected loss allowance is available.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The consolidated entity has adopted AASB 15 from 1 July 2018. The standard provides a single comprehensive model
for revenue recognition. The core principle of the standard is that an entity shall recognise revenue to depict the transfer
of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to
be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard introduced a new contract-based revenue recognition
model with a measurement approach that is based on an allocation of the transaction price. This is described further
in the accounting policies below. Credit risk is presented separately as an expense rather than adjusted against
revenue. Contracts with customers are 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. Customer acquisition costs and costs to fulfil a contract can, subject to certain criteria, be capitalised as an
asset and amortised over the contract period.
It has been determined by the Group that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards
and Interpretations on the financial performance and position of the Consolidated Entity from the adoption of these
Accounting Standards

v)
New accounting standards for application in future periods
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 2019. The
Group’s assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant
to the company, is set out below.
Reference/ Title
Summary
AASB 16 Leases
Narrow scope
amendments to IFRS 9
and IAS 28 (AASB
2017-7)
AASB 16 will primarily affect the accounting by lessees
and will result in the recognition of almost all leases on
the balance sheet. The standard removes the current
distinction between operating and financing leases and
requires recognition of an asset (the right to use the
leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals for
almost all lease contracts. The accounting by lessors,
however, will not significantly change.
The IASB has issued amendments to IFRS 9 Financial
Instruments and to IAS 28 Investments in Associates
and Joint Ventures to aid with the implementation of
IFRS 9. Equivalent amendments to the respective
Australian Standards are expected to be issued shortly.
Annual Improvements

assets as probable at this point in time. These benefits will only be obtained if:
the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit
from the deductions for the expenditure to be realised; and
no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the benefit from the deductions for the
expenditure.

Terms and conditions of issued capital
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 Group 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 Group’s capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.
Due to the nature of the Group’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 Group’s capital
risk management is to balance the current working capital position against the requirements of the Group 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. The Group is
not exposed to externally imposed capital requirements.

NOTE 21: 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. Since the acquisition of the Abra Project, the Company manages primarily on the basis of one
geographical segment being Australia, and two business segments being mineral exploration and treasury.
NOTE 22:
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 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 of 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.

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

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

Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Why significant
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
As at 30 June 2019 the carrying value of
capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure
was $18,164,654 (2018: $8,823,858), as disclosed
in Note 9. This represents 37.6% of the total assets
of the consolidated entity.
The consolidated entity’s accounting policy in

Valuation of Share Based Payments
Why significant
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
During the year the consolidated entity issued
16,500,000 performance rights and 1,260,000
share appreciation rights as disclosed in Note 18.
The valuation of share based payments requires
judgement in determining the assumptions and
inputs used

assumptions and inputs are further described in
Note 1 (t) and Note 18 to the financial report.
in
Our work included, but was not limited to:
Reviewing the key inputs used to calculate the
including
value of share based payments
expected volatility, risk free interest rate, strike
price, share price at grant date and expiry date
of the right or option;
Performing recalculations of the valuation based
on the consolidated entity’s inputs.
We also assessed the appropriateness of the note
disclosures Note 1 (t) and Note 18.
Other Information
Other information is financial and non-financial information in the annual report of the consolidated entity 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.
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 to
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.
In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the consolidated entity’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 consolidated entity or to cease operations,
or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

PKF Perth
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 and 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, individual 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 consolidated entity’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
consolidated entity 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 consolidated entity 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.
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.
– 54 –
PKF Perth
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 year ended 30 June 2019.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Galena Mining Limited for the year ended 30 June 2019, 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.
