Chairman’s Report
Dear Fellow Shareholder
I am pleased to present the Annual Report of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2012.
During May 2012 Genesis Minerals Limited commenced exploration in San Juan, Argentina with its first ever drilling program
completed at the Poncha Gold Project. Significant gold mineralisation was intersected in the program and further drilling will be
completed as soon as practicable. It is an exciting time for the Company with inaugural drilling to also be completed at the Las Opeñas
Project (25km away from Poncha) to test high-grade gold targets. This program is scheduled to commence in the September 2012
quarter. Both Projects have the potential to deliver significant gold deposits for the Company.
Genesis has continued to advance the Dinamarquesa Gold-Copper Project and the Cerro Verde Gold-Copper-Silver Project, both of
which are located in the Atacama Desert near the regional City of Copiapó in northern Chile. At Dinamarquesa Genesis completed a
2,800m diamond drilling program during August and September 2011 with encouraging porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum
mineralisation returned from the drilling. High-grade gold results were also returned from narrow quartz veins. At Cerro Verde a
mapping and sampling program in September and October 2011, undertaken over a 4km by 2km area at Cerro Verde, outlined over
11.2km of prospective veins and structures. A number of high grade copper, gold and silver results were returned.
The Company continues to operate with an excellent team of employees and highly competent contractors. We are operating in
geological terrains that we consider to be highly prospective for gold and copper. As such we are in a great position to capitalise on the
strong global copper and gold prices. With four highly prospective projects and a dedicated, highly competent management team, the
Company is well positioned to leverage from exploration success.
We will continue to simultaneously pursue the acquisition of other highly prospective, advanced copper and gold projects in Chile and
elsewhere in Latin America.
During the year Genesis implemented a strategic investment alliance with Investmet Limited, which has provided us with funds to
underpin our ongoing exploration efforts in Chile and Argentina. Investmet has a proven track record of providing funding and technical
support for junior resources companies and we look forward to working closely with the Investmet team during 2013 and beyond.
On behalf of the Board I would like to thank you for your continued support and I look forward to keeping you informed of our progress
during the forthcoming year.
Mike Haynes
Chairman

Review of Operations (continued)
During the year Genesis Minerals Limited (“Genesis”) continued exploration on its Dinamarquesa and Cerro Verde Copper-Gold
Projects in northern Chile and commenced exploration at the Poncha and Las Opeñas Gold Projects in San Juan, Argentina.
At Dinamarquesa Genesis completed a 2,800m diamond drilling program during August and September 2011 with encouraging
porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum mineralisation returned from the drilling. High-grade gold results were also returned from narrow
quartz veins.
A mapping and sampling program during September and October 2011, undertaken over a 4km by 2km area at Cerro Verde, outlined
over 11.2km of prospective veins and structures. A number of high grade copper, gold and silver results were returned.
Genesis commenced its first drilling program at Poncha during May 2012, with significant gold mineralisation intersected. The
inaugural drilling at the Las Opeñas Project (25km away from Poncha) to test high-grade gold targets is due to commence in the
September 2012 quarter.
Figure 2. Argentinean Projects
Figure 1. Project locations
Poncha and Las Opeñas Projects, San Juan, Argentina
Genesis Minerals Limited has agreements with Teck Argentina Ltd. (“Teck”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Teck Resources Limited, to
acquire 100% of Teck’s right and interest in the Poncha and Las Opeñas epithermal gold projects in San Juan Province, Argentina
The Poncha and Las Opeñas Projects are located 200km northwest of the regional capital San Juan and about 40km northwest of the
town of Rodeo in the foothills of the Andes, at elevations of between 2,800m and 4,500m above sea level. Infrastructure in the area is
good. Access to the Projects is gained via good paved and gravel roads from Rodeo. The Projects are approximately 25km apart.
Poncha
A drilling program was commenced at the Poncha Project in the June quarter of 2012 and despite inclement weather restricting the 4,000
metre program to just 7 holes for 1,498 metres, very encouraging results were received. During May 2012 (see Genesis ASX release
dated July 30,2012) these results returned high-grade gold mineralisation in drill-hole 12 PODH 003, with analytical results including:
12.15m @ 4.87 g/t gold, 15.9 g/t silver and 0.49% zinc; and
5.25m @ 0.62 g/t gold, 12 g/t silver, 0.46% lead and 0.77% zinc
Very encouraging early results have been returned from several other holes drilled at the Epithermal South Target of the Poncha Project,
including:
12 PODH 002 - 1.95m @ 0.58 g/t gold, 102.2 g/t silver, +1% copper and 0.55% zinc
12 PODH 005 -10.6m @ 0.58 g/t gold
12 PODH 006 - 31.6m @ 0.32 g/t gold
The results support Genesis’ belief that Poncha has the potential to host a multi-million-ounce gold deposit in a high-grade epithermal
system.

Genesis Minerals Limited and controlled entities
Review of Operations (continued)
Hole 12 PODH 003 was drilled perpendicular to a previous drill hole PC13 (see Genesis ASX release dated April 6, 2011; see Figure 4)
that intersected:
266m @ 1.21 g/t gold including:
22m @ 3.01 g/t gold, 5.4 g/t silver, 0.3% zinc; and
61m @ 3.04 g/t gold containing
4m @ 10.84 g/t gold and 7.9 g/t silver, and
8m @ 10.91 g/t gold and 24 g/t silver.
Recent results indicate that the previous drill hole was probably oriented down-dip of, rather than perpendicular to, the mineralisation.
As such the geological controls on the location of this high-grade mineralisation are now much better understood and further drilling can
be optimally directed to evaluate the extensions of this mineralisation, which remains open in all directions.
Drilling indicates high-grade mineralisation associated with this zone probably extends to over 300m below surface. There is significant
potential to delineate considerable resources within this mineralised zone.

Genesis Minerals Limited and controlled entities
Review of Operations (continued)
Figure 3. Cross section 6,693,050N
Figure 4. Drill hole location plan Southern Epithermal Target
Mineralisation in 12 PODH 003 is associated with steeply dipping structures containing pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite (Figure 3).
Mineralisation at the Epithermal South Target is classified as an intermediate sulphidation epithermal system. These types of deposits
(eg. Kelian) typically have these high grade narrow sulphide-only veins within haloes of low grade gold mineralisation.
Holes 12 PODH 004 to 007 targeted an interpreted north trending
gold and zinc in talus fines geochemical anomaly and structural
zone 150m to the east of 12 PODH 003. This wide-spaced
drilling returned encouraging low grade gold mineralisation
associated with sulphide rich breccias. Hole 12 PODH 006
intersected a sulphide-rich breccia intrusion which warrants
further drilling to test for potential high-grade epithermal gold
mineralisation associated with breccia intrusions along the
interpreted north-south trending structural corridor.
Holes 12 PODH 004 to 007 intersected mostly argillic altered
dacite, lapilli tuffs and breccias. The polymictic breccias
intersected in 12 PODH 006 comprise clasts of porphyry, rhyolite
and fine grained sediments up to 0.3m in size. Clasts are angular
to sub-rounded and the breccia has a milled matrix. Cavities are
filled by clays and sulphides and alteration is mainly argillic,
The
with variable silicification and carbonate alteration.
polymictic breccias are interpreted to be phreatomagmatic
breccias.
Figure 5. Section 6,693,180N Southern Epithermal Target
Further Exploration
Genesis will recommence the suspended drilling program at Poncha as soon as weather conditions allow; with the program expected to
resume in October 2012. The program will continue to target a number of structural and geochemical anomalies at the Southern
Epithermal Target as well as the untested Northern Porphyry Target.
A large alteration system (2km by 2km) at the Northern Porphyry and Epithermal target (Figure 6), located about 2km north north-west
of the Southern Epithermal Target, remains to be tested. Previous drilling (PC003 and PC005) encountered 206m @ 0.14 g/t gold and
0.14% copper in PC003 and 133.5m @ 0.2 g/t gold in PC005 associated with porphyry hosted mineralisation. Epithermal mineralisation
at surface to the north of these drill holes within a large alteration system has not been drill tested. The area between the Southern
Epithermal Target and the Northern Porphyry Target is under talus scree, so any mineralisation in this area would be obscured by cover,
hence further exploration in this area is also warranted.

Las Opeñas
An extensive high-grade epithermal system has been identified at Las Opeñas at surface over 4.5 sq kms, with rock chip sampling and
mapping returning values of up to 49g/t gold, 183g/t gold and 6,800g/t silver. Channel sampling of mapped breccia bodies has returned
results including 20m @ 4.69g/t gold associated with strongly anomalous zinc, lead and silver. This area has never been drill-tested.
Las Opeñas is located approximately 25km from Poncha. Drilling is planned to commence in the September 2012 quarter.

Dinamarquesa and Cerro Verde Projects, Chile
Dinamarquesa
Genesis entered into an agreement in August 2010 with a private
Chilean company to acquire a 100% interest in the Dinamarquesa
Project in northern Chile. Limited previous wide spaced drilling had
delineated a number of high grade gold structures. The Project is
located within the highly mineralised Inca de Oro gold-copper belt
which forms part of the well-endowed Palaeocene Porphyry belt of
northern Chile.
The Project is located in the Atacama Desert in an area with excellent
infrastructure about 850 km north of Santiago, 90 km north of the city
of Copiapó and 75km east of the Pacific Ocean. The Project is 3km
south west of the small town of Inca de Oro which is connected by a
sealed highway between Copiapó in the south and Diego de Almagro in
the north.
The Dinamarquesa Project lies within a cluster of large Paleocene
porphyry deposits including the Inca de Oro Deposit, 4km east (388Mt
@ 0.38% copper and 0.1g/t gold, Pan Aust ASX Release 19 July 2012)
and the Carmen Deposit 5km south (45.8Mt @ 0.34% copper and
0.34g/t gold, Pan Aust ASX Release 14 August 2012), within the Inca
de Oro porphyry belt.
Figure 9 (Right) Location of the Dinamarquesa Project.
Exploration Completed
A 2,800m drilling program was completed at the Dinamarquesa Project
during August 2011. The purposes of this program were to follow-up high grade intersections returned from previous first pass, wide-
spaced drilling and to further test the porphyry copper-gold mineralisation at the Project.
Porphyry Copper Mineralisation
Highly encouraging results (see Genesis ASX release dated October 11, 2011) were returned from holes drilled to assess the porphyry
hosted copper-gold-molybdenum mineralised system, with extensive zones of copper-gold +/- molybdenum mineralisation intersected.

Cerro Verde
Genesis entered into an agreement in August 2010 with a private Chilean company to acquire a 100% interest in the Cerro Verde Gold‐
Copper‐Silver Project in northern Chile (Figure 9). Mining in the area dates back to the 1800s but only limited modern exploration has
been completed at the Project. Numerous high grade structures remain untested and the potential to discover new veins is considered
high; as is the potential to define a large porphyry system at the Project.
The Project is located in the Atacama Desert in an area serviced by very good infrastructure about 750 km north of Santiago, 80 km
south of the city of Copiapó and 75km east of the Pacific Ocean. The Project is easily accessed by a sealed road and well-formed gravel
roads from Copiapó. The altitude ranges from 1,800 to 2,200m, with low to moderate relief. Exploration can be conducted all year
round.
The Project hosts a sub‐parallel swarm of precious and base metal‐bearing quartz specularite veins exposed along the western flank of a
caldera system that is elongated north‐south. The host rocks comprise a sequence of Palaeocene andesitic volcaniclastics, dacite and
rhyolite flows, flow‐domes, diatreme‐like breccias, and dikes capped by a blanket of rhyolitic ignimbrites. Ore‐bearing veins cut the

entire stratigraphic column. Mineralised veins and structures strike north to north east with moderate to steep dips to the east and west.
Historic mining in the area dates back to the 1800’s with several high grade veins mined at depth. Only limited historic mining records
are currently available to Genesis. However, records indicate that in 1869 some 8,500 tonnes at ~17% copper were extracted from mines
in the area. Small scale mining and reclamation of old stockpiles continues at present.
Minor surface exploration was completed by Homestake between 1998 and 1999. Between 2004 and 2005, Hochschilds (MH Chile)
explored the area by surface mapping, sampling (334 surface samples) and limited diamond drilling (1,219m completed). The surface
rock chip sampling by Hochschilds highlighted significant gold, copper and silver surface mineralisation over a 4km by 2km area.
Strong arsenic, barium, bismuth, mercury, molybdenum, lead and stibnite anomalism is also present.
No other modern exploration is known to have been conducted at the Project.
Exploration Completed
A mapping and sampling program, undertaken over a 4km by 2km area at Cerro Verde during the second half of 2011, has outlined over
11.2km of prospective veins and structures (Figures 12 and 13). A total of 185 rock chip samples were collected during the mapping
phase with analytical results up to 17.3 g/t gold, 7.69% copper and 360g/t silver returned.
The veins and structures are defined by quartz-iron oxide (goethite +/- specularite) rich veins together with copper oxides. Individual
mineralised structures have been mapped to be up to 1,200m long, ranging from approximately 0.5m to over 8m wide. The mapped
structures commonly strike NNE and dip both steeply east and west. Very little drilling has been undertaken previously to test these
structures.
Mapping and a topographic survey in the central part of the Project has also highlighted a number of areas that host historical workings,
confirming the prospectivity of the Project. Only limited information is available on these workings.
Figure 12 Example of historical workings – Viscacha Shaft at the Cerro Verde Project
An orientation ground magnetic survey was completed during April 2012. This survey shows that some of the main structures can be
mapped using this technique.
Further exploration will comprise detailed rock chip sampling, geological structural mapping and geophysical surveying prior to drilling.
A number of areas within the Project area, that may host extensions to the delineated mineralisation, remain unexplored and warrant first
pass sampling and mapping. These include more than 4km of strike to the north, 2km of strike to the south and 1km of strike to the east
of the recently mapped area.

Risk Management
The board is responsible for ensuring that risks, and also opportunities, are identified on a timely basis and that activities are aligned with
the risks and opportunities identified by the board.
The Group believes that it is crucial for all board members to be a part of this process, and as such the board has not established a
separate risk management committee.
The board has a number of mechanisms in place to ensure that management's objectives and activities are aligned with the risks
identified by the board. These include the following:
• Board approval of a strategic plan, which encompasses strategy statements designed to meet stakeholders needs and manage business
risk.
Implementation of board approved operating plans and budgets and board monitoring of progress against these budgets.
•
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS
The Group raised $500,000 through the issue of 3,333,333 ordinary shares to institutional and sophisticated investors in March 2012. The
Group raised $2,200,000 through the issue of 22,000,000 ordinary shares as approved by shareholders at the general meeting on 21
March 2012. At this meeting, 5,000,000 ordinary shares were issued upon the conversion of convertible notes with a face value of
$500,000. The Group also raised $1,353,157 from the issue of 13,531,569 ordinary shares through an Entitlements Issue completed in
May 2012. Funds raised are being used to actively pursue the Group’s exploration projects.
AFTER BALANCE DATE EVENTS
No matters or circumstances, besides those disclosed at Note 19, have arisen since the end of the financial year which significantly
affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in
future financial years.
LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS
The Group expects to maintain the present status and level of operations and hence there are no likely developments in the entity's
operations.
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION AND PERFORMANCE
The Group is subject to significant environmental regulation in respect to its exploration activities.
The Group aims to ensure the appropriate standard of environmental care is achieved, and in doing so, that it is aware of and is in
compliance with all environmental legislation. The directors of the Group are not aware of any breach of environmental legislation for
the year under review.
The directors have considered the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (the NGER Act) which introduces a single
national reporting framework for the reporting and dissemination of information about greenhouse gas emissions, greenhouse gas
projects, and energy use and production of corporations. At the current stage of development, the directors have determined that the
NGER Act will have no effect on the Group for the current, nor subsequent, financial year. The directors will reassess this position as
and when the need arises.

The board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the Group is as
follows:
The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, was developed by the
board. All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience) and superannuation. The
board reviews executive packages annually by reference to the Group’s performance, executive performance and comparable information
from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries.
The board may exercise discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options. The policy is designed to attract the highest
calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth.
Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements.
The executive directors and executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which is currently
9%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits.
All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the company and expensed. Options are valued using the
Black-Scholes methodology.
The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and
responsibilities. The board determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market
practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that
can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (currently $300,000). Fees
for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder
interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company and are able to participate in the employee option plan.
Performance based remuneration
The company currently has no performance based remuneration component built into director and executive remuneration packages.
Group performance, shareholder wealth and directors' and executives' remuneration
The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase the direct positive relationship between shareholders’ investment objectives and
directors and executive’s performance. The Group plans to facilitate this process by directors and executives participating in future
option issues to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The Group believes this policy will be effective in
increasing shareholder wealth. For details of directors and executives interests in options at year end, refer to note 13 of the financial
statements.
Use of remuneration consultants
The Group did not employ the services of any remuneration consultants during the financial year ended 30 June 2012.
Voting and comments made at the Company’s 2011 Annual General Meeting
The Company received approximately 91% of “yes” votes on its remuneration report for the 2011 financial year. The Company did not
receive any specific feedback at the AGM or throughout the year on its remuneration practices.
Details of remuneration
Details of the remuneration of the directors and the key management personnel of the Group are set out in the following table.
The key management personnel of the Group include the directors and company secretary as per page 13 above.
Given the size and nature of operations of the Group, there are no other employees who are required to have their remuneration
disclosed in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001.

INSURANCE OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
During or since the financial year, the company has paid premiums insuring all the directors of Genesis Minerals Limited against costs
incurred in defending proceedings for conduct involving:
(a) a wilful breach of duty; or
(b) a contravention of sections 182 or 183 of the Corporations Act 2001,
as permitted by section 199B of the Corporations Act 2001.
The total amount of insurance contract premiums paid is $12,460 (2011: $8,905).
NON-AUDIT SERVICES
There were no non-audit services provided by the entity's auditor, Bentleys, or associated entities.

PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the
company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the company is a party, for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the
company for all or any part of those proceedings.
No proceedings have been brought or intervened in on behalf of the company with leave of the Court under section 237 of the
Corporations Act 2001.
GOING CONCERN
The accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the
realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Group incurred a loss from ordinary activities of
$5,117,531 for the year ended 30 June 2012 (2011: $2,497,617). Included within this loss was the write off of exploration expenditure of
$3,297,467 (2011: $1,475,095).
The net working capital position of the Group at 30 June 2012 was $1,746,444 (2011: $1,453,537) and the net increase in cash held
during the year was $485,582 (2011: $1,338,146 increase).
The ability of the Group to continue to pay its debts as and when they fall due is dependent upon the Group successfully raising
additional share capital and ultimately developing one of its mineral properties.
The Directors believe it is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis because the Directors have an appropriate plan
to contain certain operating and exploration expenditure if additional required funding is unavailable.
Refer to note 1(a) for further details.
AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION
A copy of the auditor's independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 19.
This Report of the Directors, incorporating the Remuneration Report, is signed in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.

Corporate Governance Statement
The Board of Directors
The company's constitution provides that the number of directors shall not be less than three and not more than nine. There is no
requirement for any shareholding qualification.
As and if the company's activities increase in size, nature and scope the size of the Board will be reviewed periodically, and as
circumstances demand. The optimum number of directors required to supervise adequately the company's constitution will be determined
within the limitations imposed by the constitution.
The membership of the Board, its activities and composition, is subject to periodic review. The criteria for determining the identification
and appointment of a suitable candidate for the Board shall include quality of the individual, background of experience and achievement,
compatibility with other Board members, credibility within the company's scope of activities, intellectual ability to contribute to Board's
duties and physical ability to undertake Board's duties and responsibilities.
Directors are initially appointed by the full Board subject to election by shareholders at the next general meeting. Under the company's
constitution the tenure of a director (other than managing director, and only one managing director where the position is jointly held) is
subject to reappointment by shareholders not later than the third anniversary following his or her last appointment. Subject to the
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, the Board does not subscribe to the principle of retirement age and there is no maximum
period of service as a director. A managing director may be appointed for any period and on any terms the directors think fit and, subject
to the terms of any agreement entered into, may revoke any appointment.
The Board considers that the company is not currently of a size, nor are its affairs of such complexity to justify the formation of separate
or special committees (other than an Audit Committee) at this time. The Board as a whole is able to address the governance aspects of
the full scope of the company's activities and to ensure that it adheres to appropriate ethical standards.
Role of the Board
The Board's primary role is the protection and enhancement of long-term shareholder value.
To fulfil this role, the Board is responsible for oversight of management and the overall corporate governance of the company including
its strategic direction, establishing goals for management and monitoring the achievement of these goals.
Appointments to Other Boards
Directors are required to take into consideration any potential conflicts of interest when accepting appointments to other boards.
Independent Professional Advice
The Board has determined that individual directors have the right in connection with their duties and responsibilities as directors, to seek
independent professional advice at the company's expense. With the exception of expenses for legal advice in relation to director's rights
and duties, the engagement of an outside adviser is subject to prior approval of the Chairman and this will not be withheld unreasonably.
Continuous Review of Corporate Governance
Directors consider, on an ongoing basis, how management information is presented to them and whether such information is sufficient to
enable them to discharge their duties as directors of the company. Such information must be sufficient to enable the directors to
determine appropriate operating and financial strategies from time to time in light of changing circumstances and economic conditions.
The directors recognise that mining exploration is an inherently risky business and that operational strategies adopted should,
notwithstanding, be directed towards improving or maintaining the net worth of the company.
ASX Principles of Good Corporate Governance
The Board has reviewed its current practices in light of the revised ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations with a
view to making amendments where applicable after considering the company's size and the resources it has available.
As the company's activities develop in size, nature and scope, the size of the Board and the implementation of any additional formal
corporate governance committees will be given further consideration.
The Board has adopted the revised Recommendations and the following table sets out the company's present position in relation to each
of the revised Principles.

The remuneration of management and employees is reviewed by the
Managing Director and approved by the Board.
Acting in its ordinary capacity the Board from time to time carries out
the process of considering and determining performance issues.
Matters reserved for the Board can be viewed on the Company
website.
Given the Group’s background, the nature and size of its business and
the current stage of its development, the board comprises three
directors, two of whom are non-executive. The board believes that
this is both appropriate and acceptable at this stage of the Group’s
development.
The position of Chairman and Managing Director are held by separate
persons.
The full Board is the Nomination Committee. Acting in its ordinary
capacity from time to time as required, the Board carries out the
process of determining the need for screening and appointing new
Directors. In view of the size and resources available to the Group it is
not considered that a separate Nomination Committee would add any
substance to this process.
Given the size and nature of the Group a formal process for
performance evaluation has not been developed.

The Group has established a Code of Conduct which can be viewed on

The Company has established a Diversity Policy, however, the policy
does not include requirements for the board to establish measurable
objectives for achieving gender diversity. Given the Company’s size
and stage of development as an exploration company, the board does
not think it is yet appropriate to include measurable objectives in
relation to gender. As the Company grows and requires more
employees, the Company will review this policy and amend as
appropriate.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
30 JUNE 2012
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have been
consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for the Group consisting of Genesis
Minerals Limited and its subsidiaries (“the Group”). The financial statements are presented in the Australian currency. Genesis Minerals
Limited is a company limited by shares, domiciled and incorporated in Australia. The financial statements were authorised for issue by
the directors on 24 September 2012. The directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements.
(a) Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations
issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. Genesis Minerals Limited is a for-profit entity for
the purpose of preparing the financial statements.
(i) Compliance with IFRS
The consolidated financial statements of the Genesis Minerals Limited Group also comply with International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
(ii) New and amended standards adopted by the Group
None of the new standards and amendments to standards that are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 July 2012
affected any of the amounts recognised in the current period or any prior period and are not likely to affect future periods.
(iii) Early adoption of standards
The Group has not elected to apply any pronouncements before their operative date in the annual reporting period beginning 1 July 2012.
(iv) Historical cost convention
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale
financial assets, which have been measured at fair value.
(v) Going concern
The accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the
realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Group incurred a loss from ordinary activities of
$5,117,531 for the year ended 30 June 2012 (2011: $2,497,617). Included within this loss was exploration expenditure of $3,297,466
(2011: $1,475,095).
The net working capital position of the Group at 30 June 2012 was $1,746,444 (2011: $1,453,537) and the net increase in cash held
during the year was $485,582 (2011: $1,338,146). The Group has expenditure commitments relating to work programme obligations of
their assets of $2,200,000 which potentially could fall due in the twelve months to 30 June 2013.
The ability of the Group to continue to pay its debts as and when they fall due is dependent upon the Group successfully raising
additional share capital and ultimately developing one of its mineral properties.
The Directors believe it is appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis because:
•
•
the Directors have an appropriate plan to raise additional funds as and when it is required. In light of the Group’s current exploration
projects, the Directors believe that the additional capital required can be raised in the market; and
the Directors have an appropriate plan to contain certain operating and exploration expenditure if appropriate funding is unavailable.
Should the Group not be able to successfully raise capital if required, it may be necessary to sell some of its assets, farm out exploration
projects, reduce exploration expenditure by various methods including surrendering less prospective tenements. Although the Directors
believe that they will be successful in these measures, if they are not, the Group may be unable to continue as a going concern and
therefore may be unable to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the
financial report.
(b) Principles of consolidation
(i) Subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Genesis Minerals Limited (“Company” or
“parent entity”) as at 30 June 2012 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Genesis Minerals Limited and its
subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Group.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating
policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting
rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date
that control ceases.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group.
29
Genesis Minerals Limited and controlled entities
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements continued
30 JUNE 2012
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are
also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries
have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive
income, statement of changes in equity and statement of financial position respectively.
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the separate financial statements of Genesis Minerals Limited.
(ii) Changes in ownership interests
The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of
the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling
interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling
interests and any consideration paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within equity attributable to owners of Genesis
Minerals Limited.
When the Group ceases to have control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair
value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of
subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, jointly controlled entity or financial asset. In addition, any amounts
previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the group had directly disposed of
the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to
profit or loss.
If the ownership interest in a jointly controlled entity or associate is reduced but joint control or significant influence is retained, only a
proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where
appropriate.
(c) Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The
chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has
been identified as the full Board of Directors.
(d) Foreign currency translation
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic
environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian
dollars, which is Genesis Minerals Limited's functional and presentation currency.
(ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end
exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss, except when they are
deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges or are attributable to part of the net investment in
a foreign operation.
Translation differences on financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation
differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in
profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets such as equities classified as
available-for-sale financial assets are included in the fair value reserve in equity.
(iii) Group companies
The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a
functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement
of financial position;
income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless that is not a
reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and
expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions); and
all resulting exchange differences are recognised other comprehensive income.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities, and of borrowings and other
financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a foreign
operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are repaid, the associated exchange differences are reclassified to
profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
(e) Revenue recognition
Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial assets.
(f) Income tax
The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable
income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to
unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting
period in the countries where the Company’s subsidiaries and associated operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically
evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It
establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it
arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction
affects neither accounting nor taxable profit nor loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted
or substantially enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the
deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable
amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments
in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable
that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when
the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a
legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
(g) Leases
Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Group, as lessee, has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are
classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s inception at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, the
present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other short-
term and long-term payables. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit
or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease
term.
Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Group as lessee are classified as
operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit or loss on a
straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
(h) Impairment of assets
Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment,
or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is
recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of
an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels
for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of
assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the
impairment at each reporting date.
(i) Cash and cash equivalents
For statement of cash flows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial
institutions, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown
within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
(j) Trade and other receivables
Receivables are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less a provision for any uncollectible debts. An estimate for doubtful
debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written-off as incurred.
(k) Investments and other financial assets
Classification
The Group classifies its investments in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables,
held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments
were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and, in the case of assets classified as
held-to-maturity, re-evaluates this designation at each reporting date.
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if
acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are classified as held for trading unless they are designated
as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets.
(ii) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.
They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting date which are classified
as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in trade and other receivables in the statement of financial position.
(iii) Held-to-maturity investments
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the
Group’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. If the Group were to sell other than an insignificant
amount of held-to-maturity financial assets, the whole category would be tainted and reclassified as available-for-sale. Held-to-maturity
financial assets are included in non-current assets, except for those with maturities less than 12 months from the reporting date, which are
classified as current assets.
(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets, comprising principally marketable equity securities, are non-derivatives that are either designated in
this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless management intends to
dispose of the investment within 12 months of the reporting date. Investments are designated available-for-sale if they do not have fixed
maturities and fixed or determinable payments and management intends to hold them for the medium to long term.
Financial assets - reclassification
The Group may choose to reclassify a non-derivative trading financial asset out of the held-for-trading category if the financial asset is
no longer held for the purpose of selling it in the near term. Financial assets other than loans and receivables are permitted to be
reclassified out of the held-for-trading category only in rare circumstances arising from a single event that is unusual and highly unlikely
to recur in the near term. In addition, the Group may choose to reclassify financial assets that would meet the definition of loans and
receivables out of the held-for-trading or available-for-sale categories if the Group has the intention and ability to hold these financial
assets for the foreseeable future or until maturity at the date of reclassification.
Reclassifications are made at fair value as of the reclassification date. Fair value becomes the new cost or amortised cost as applicable,
and no reversals of fair value gains or losses recorded before reclassification date are subsequently made. Effective interest rates for
financial assets reclassified to loans and receivables and held-to-maturity categories are determined at the reclassification date. Further
increases in estimates of cash flows adjust effective interest rates prospectively.
Recognition and derecognition
Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date – the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell
the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through
profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value and transaction costs are
expensed to the statement of comprehensive income. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the
financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in equity are included in the
statement of comprehensive income as gains and losses from investment securities.
Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through
profit or loss, transactions costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets
carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
32
Genesis Minerals Limited and controlled entities
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements continued
30 JUNE 2012
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or
losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are presented in the
statement of comprehensive income within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as part of revenue from
continuing operations when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in a foreign currency and classified as available-for-sale are analysed
between translation differences resulting from changes in amortised cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the
security. The translation differences related to changes in the amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss, and other changes in
carrying amount are recognised in equity. Changes in the fair value of other monetary and non-monetary securities classified as
available-for-sale are recognised in equity.
Details on how the fair value of financial investments is determined are disclosed in note 2.
Impairment
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial
assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective
evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that
loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be
reliably estimated. In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of
the security below its cost is considered an indicator that the assets are impaired.
(i) Assets carried at amortised cost
For loans and receivables, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value
of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original
effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss. If a loan or
held-to-maturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective
interest rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s
fair value using an observable market price.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring
after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognised
impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
(ii) Assets classified as available-for-sale
If there is objective evidence of impairment for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference
between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or
loss – is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment losses on equity instruments that were recognised in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss in a subsequent
period.
If the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale increases in a subsequent period and the increase can be objectively
related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through profit or
loss.
(l) Plant and equipment
All plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the
acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable
that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The
carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance
are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation of plant and equipment is calculated using the reducing balance method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts, net of
their residual values, over their estimated useful lives or, in the case of leasehold improvements and certain leased plant and equipment,
the shorter lease term. The rates vary between 20% and 40% per annum.
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its
estimated recoverable amount (note 1(h)).
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the statement of
comprehensive income. When revalued assets are sold, it is Group policy to transfer the amounts included in other reserves in respect of
those assets to retained earnings.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
(m) Exploration and evaluation costs
Exploration and evaluation costs are expensed as incurred.
(n) Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid.
The amounts are unsecured, non-interest bearing and are paid on normal commercial terms.
(o) Employee benefits
(i) Wages and salaries and annual leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the
reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured at the
amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
(ii) Share-based payments
The Group provides benefits to employees (including directors) of the Group in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby
employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (‘equity-settled transactions’), refer to note 22.
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are
granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the
performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (‘vesting
date’).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which
the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of options that, in the opinion of the directors of the Group, will ultimately vest. This
opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market
performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition.
Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised
for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a
replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original
award.
(p) 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. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition of a business are not included in
the cost of the acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.
(q) Earnings per share
(i) Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing
equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for
bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.
(ii) 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.
(r) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the
taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or
payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are
recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
(s) New accounting standards and interpretations
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2012 reporting periods. The
Group’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.
simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value;
simplifying the requirements for embedded derivatives;
removing the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets;
removing the requirements to separate and fair value embedded derivatives for financial assets carried at amortised cost;
AASB 9: Financial Instruments (December 2010) (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013)
This Standard is applicable retrospectively and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial
instruments, as well as recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments. The Group has not yet determined any
potential impact on the financial statements.
The key changes made to accounting requirements include:
allowing an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not
held for trading in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be
recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument;
requiring financial assets to be reclassified where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified based
on: (a) the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and (b) the characteristics of the contractual
cash flows; and
requiring an entity that chooses to measure a financial liability at fair value to present the portion of the change in its fair value due to
changes in the entity’s own credit risk in other comprehensive income, except when that would create an accounting mismatch. If
such a mismatch would be created or enlarged, the entity is required to present all changes in fair value (including the effects of
changes in the credit risk of the liability) in profit or loss.
AASB 2010–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2011) [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 101, 102,
108, 112, 118, 120, 121, 127, 128, 131, 132, 136, 137, 139, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 2, 5, 10, 12, 19 & 127] (applies to periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2013)
This Standard makes amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations as a consequence of the issuance of
AASB 9: Financial Instruments in December 2010. Accordingly, these amendments will only apply when the entity adopts AASB 9.
As noted above, the Group has not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements from adopting AASB 9.
AASB 2010–8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets [AASB 112] (applies to
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012)
This Standard makes amendments to AASB 112: Income Taxes. The amendments brought in by this Standard introduce a more practical
approach for measuring deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets when investment property is measured using the fair value model
under AASB 140: Investment Property.
Under the current AASB 112, the measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets depends on whether an entity expects to
recover an asset by using it or by selling it. The amendments introduce a presumption that an investment property is recovered entirely
through sale. This presumption is rebutted if the investment property is held within a business model whose objective is to consume
substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale.
The amendments brought in by this Standard also incorporate Interpretation 121 into AASB 112. The amendments are not expected to
impact the Group.
AASB 2010–9: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Severe Hyperinflation and Removal of Fixed Dates for First-time
Adopters [AASB 1] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012/1 January 2013)
This Standard makes amendments to AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards.
The amendments brought in by this Standard provide relief for first-time adopters of Australian Accounting Standards from having to
reconstruct transactions that occurred before their date of transition to Australian Accounting Standards.
Furthermore, the amendments brought in by this Standard also provide guidance for entities emerging from severe hyperinflation either
to resume presenting Australian-Accounting-Standards financial statements or to present Australian-Accounting-Standards financial
statements for the first time.
This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

2009–11 & AASB 2011–7] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013)
This Standard makes amendments to AASB 2009–11: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9, and
AASB 2011–7: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (December 2010).
The amendments brought in by this Standard ultimately affect AASB 1: First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards and
provide relief for first-time adopters from having to reconstruct transactions that occurred before their transition date.
[The amendments to AASB 2009–11 will only affect early adopters of AASB 2009–11 (and AASB 9: Financial Instruments that was
issued in December 2009) as it has been superseded by AASB 2010–7.]

AASB 1054: Australian Additional Disclosures (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013)
This Standard is as a consequence of phase 1 of the joint Trans-Tasman Convergence project of the AASB and FRSB.
This Standard relocates all Australian specific disclosures from other standards to one place and revises disclosures in the following
areas:
compliance with Australian Accounting Standards;
the statutory basis or reporting framework for financial statements;
whether the financial statements are general purpose or special purpose;
audit fees; and

AASB 2011-2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Trans-Tasman Convergence project – Reduced
disclosure regime [AASB 101 & AASB 1054] (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 July 2013)
This Standard makes amendments to the application of the revised disclosures to Tier 2 entities that are applying AASB 1053.
This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.
AASB 10: Consolidated Financial Statements (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013)
This Standard establishes a new control model that applies to all entities. It replaces parts of AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate
Financial Statements dealing with the accounting for consolidated financial statements and Interpretation 112Consolidation – Special
Purpose Entities.
The new control model broadens the situations when an entity is considered to be controlled by another entity and includes new guidance
for applying the model to specific situations, including when acting as a manager may give control, the impact of potential voting rights
and when holding less than a majority voting rights may give control. This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.
AASB 11: Joint Arrangements (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013)
This Standard replaces AASB 131 Interests in Joint Ventures and Interpretation 113 Jointly-Controlled Entities – Non-monetary
Contributions by Ventures. AASB 11 uses the principle of control in AASB 10 to define joint control, and therefore the determination of
whether joint control exists may change. In addition, AASB 11 removes the option to account for jointly controlled entities (JCEs) using
proportionate consolidation. Instead, accounting for a joint arrangement is dependent on the nature of the rights and obligations arising
from the arrangement. Joint operations that give the venturers a right to the underlying assets and obligations themselves is accounted for
by recognising the share of those assets and obligations. Joint ventures that give the venturers a right to the net assets is accounted for
using the equity method. This may result in a change in the accounting for the joint arrangements held by the Group.
AASB 12: Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013)
This Standard includes all disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and structures
entities. New disclosures have been introduced about the judgements made by management to determine whether control exists, and to
require summarised information about joint arrangements, associates and structured entities and subsidiaries with non-controlling
interests. The Group has not yet determined any potential impact on the financial statements.
AASB 13: Fair Value Measurement (applies to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013)
This Standard establishes a single source of guidance under AASB for determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. AASB 13 does
not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather, provides guidance on how to determine fair value under AASB when
fair value is required or permitted by AASB. Application of this definition may result in different fair values being determined for the
relevant assets.
AASB 13 also expands the disclosure requirements for all assets or liabilities carried at fair value. This includes information about the
assumptions made and the qualitative impact of those assumptions on the fair value determined. The Group has not yet determined any
potential impact on the financial statements.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd)
AASB 119: Employee Benefits (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013)
The main change introduced by this standard is to revise the accounting for defined benefit plans. The amendment removes the options
for accounting for the liability, and requires that the liabilities arising from such plans is recognized in full with actuarial gains and losses
being recognized in other comprehensive income. It also revised the method of calculating the return on plan assets. The definition of
short-term benefits has been revised, meaning some annual leave entitlements may become long-term in nature with a revised
measurement. Similarly the timing for recognising a provision for termination benefits has been revised, such that provisions can only be
recognised when the offer cannot be withdrawn.
Consequential amendments were also made to other standards via AASB 2011-10.
Interpretation 20: Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on
or after 1 January 2013)
This interpretation applies to stripping costs incurred during the production phase of a surface mine. Production stripping costs are to be
capitalised as part of an asset, if an entity can demonstrate that it is probable future economic benefits will be realised, the costs can be
reliably measured and the entity can identify the component of an ore body for which access has been improved. This asset is to be called
the “stripping activity asset”.
The stripping activity asset shall be depreciated or amortised on a systematic basis, over the expected useful life of the identified
component of the ore body that becomes more accessible as a result of the stripping activity. The units of production method shall be
applied unless another method is more appropriate.
(t) Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to
exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or
complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are:
Environmental Issues
Balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental legislation,
and the directors understanding thereof. At the current stage of the Group’s development and its current environmental impact the
directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate.
Taxation
Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto related to taxation are based on the best estimates of the directors.
These estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the Group as they pertain to current income taxation
legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current
income tax position represents that directors’ best estimate, pending an assessment by the Australian Taxation Office.
Exploration expenditure
Exploration and evaluation costs are expensed as they are incurred.
Share based payments
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. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, using
the assumptions detailed in note 22. If any of these assumptions were to change, there may be an impact on the amounts reported.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk),
credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and
seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group.
Risk management is carried out by the full Board of Directors as the Group believes that it is crucial for all board members to be
involved in this process. The Managing Director, with the assistance of senior management as required, has responsibility for identifying,
assessing, treating and monitoring risks and reporting to the board on risk management.
(a) Market risk
(i) Foreign exchange risk
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with
respect to the Chilean Peso (“CLP”). Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and
liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency and net investments in foreign operations. The Group has
not formalised a foreign currency risk management policy however, it monitors its foreign currency expenditure in light of exchange rate
movements. The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the reporting date was as follows:
Cash and cash equivalents
Trade and other receivables
Trade and other payables
Net CLP exposure
Net AUD exposure
2012
CLP
9,173,083
1,820,716

400,026
(16,169,770)
29,484,774
(8,092)
59,264
Sensitivity analysis
Based on the financial instruments held at 30 June 2012, had the Australian dollar weakened/strengthened by 10% against the Chilean
Peso with all other variables held constant, there would have been nil impact on the Group’s post-tax losses for the year (2011: Nil) and
immaterial movements to the Group’s equity for both years presented.
(ii) Price risk
Given the current level of operations, the Group is not exposed to price risk.
(iii) Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to movements in market interest rates on cash and cash equivalents. The Group policy is to monitor the interest
rate yield curve out to six months to ensure a balance is maintained between the liquidity of cash assets and the interest rate return. The
entire balance of cash and cash equivalents for the Group $2,040,132 (2011: $1,556,883) is subject to interest rate risk. The proportional
mix of floating interest rates and fixed rates to a maximum of six months fluctuate during the year depending on current working capital
requirements. The weighted average interest rate received on cash and cash equivalents by the Group was 3.4% (2011: 4.6%).
Sensitivity analysis
At 30 June 2012, if interest rates had changed by -/+ 80 basis points from the weighted average rate for the year with all other variables
held constant, post-tax loss for the Group would have been $8,850 lower/higher (2011: $6,750 lower/higher) as a result of lower/higher
interest income from cash and cash equivalents.
(b) Credit risk
The Group does not have any significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date is the
carrying amount (net of provision for impairment) of those assets as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the
financial statements.
As the Group does not presently have any debtors, lending, significant stock levels or any other credit risk, a formal credit risk
management policy is not maintained.
Credit risk related to balances with banks by ensuring surplus funds are only invested with counterparties with a Standard & Poor’s rating
of at least AA-, with material cash balances retained in AUD or USD.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (cont’d)
2.
(c) Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and ensuring sufficient cash and marketable
securities are available to meet the current and future commitments of the Group. Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, being
mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings.
The Board of Directors constantly monitor the state of equity markets in conjunction with the Group’s current and future funding
requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required.
The financial liabilities of the Group are confined to trade and other payables as disclosed in the Statement of financial position. All trade
and other payables are non-interest bearing and due within 12 months of the reporting date.
(d) Fair value estimation
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.
All financial assets and financial liabilities of the Group at the balance date are recorded at amounts approximating their carrying amount.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. The quoted market
price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price.
The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their
short-term nature.
3.
OPERATING SEGMENTS
Identification of reportable segments
The Group 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.
Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic
characteristics. For management purposes, the Group has identified only one reportable segment as exploration activities undertaken in
Chile. This segment includes activities associated with the determination and assessment of the existence of commercial economic
reserves, from the Group’s mineral assets in this geographic location.
Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments
Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to operating segments
are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial statements of the
Group.
Inter-segment transactions
An internally determined transfer price is set for all inter-entity sales. This price is re-set quarterly and is based on what would be
realised in the event the sale was made to an external party at arm’s-length. All such transactions are eliminated on consolidation for the
Group’s financial statements.
Inter-segment loans payable and receivable are initially recognised at the consideration received net of transaction costs. If inter-segment
loans receivable and payable are not on commercial terms, these are not adjusted to fair value based on market interest rates. This policy
represents a departure from that applied to the statutory financial statements.
Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of economic value from
the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.
Unless indicated otherwise in the segment assets note, investments in financial assets, deferred tax assets and intangible assets have not
been allocated to operating segments.
Segment liabilities
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment.
Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include
trade and other payables and certain direct borrowings.
Unallocated items
The following items of revenue, expense, assets and liabilities are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered part of
the core operations of the segment:
Head office and other administration costs.

(e) Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the company in proportion to the number
of and amounts paid on the shares held.
On a show of hands every holder of ordinary shares present at a meeting in person or by proxy, is entitled to one vote, and upon a poll
each share is entitled to one vote.
Ordinary shares have no par value and the Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital.
(f) Other equity securities
The amount shown for other equity securities is the value of the conversion rights relating to the convertible notes that were issued, and
then converted, during the current reporting period. The Group issued five convertible notes with a face value of $100,000 each during
the year to Investmet Ltd, a company of which Mr Delaney is deemed an associate, with a nil interest rate. The notes are convertible into
ordinary shares of the Company, at the option of the holder, or repayable on 30 April 2012. The conversion rate is 1 million shares for
each note held, plus a free attaching option, subject to prior shareholder approval, or 1.67 million shares for each note held if shareholder
approval is not obtained.
Shareholder approval was obtained at the general meeting held on 21 March 2012, and the notes were subsequently converted at the rate
of 1 million shares for each note held, with the shares issued on 12 April 2012. Details of amounts recognised in the financial statements
are as follows:

(g) Capital risk management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they may continue to
provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.
Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the
primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group’s capital risk management is the current working
capital position against the requirements of the Group to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. The Group’s strategy is
to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital
raisings as required. The working capital position of the Group at 30 June 2012 and 30 June 2012 is as follows:
Cash and cash equivalents
Trade and other receivables
Trade and other payables

Corporations Act 2001.

Michael Fowler
Managing Director
Perth, 24 September 2012

We have audited the accompanying financial report of Genesis Minerals Limited (“the
Company”) and Controlled Entities (“the Consolidated Entity”), which comprises the
consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2012, and the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and
consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary
of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’
declaration of the Company and the Consolidated Entity, comprising the Company and the
entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of
the financial report 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 is free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with
Accounting Standards AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial
statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing
Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit
engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the
financial report is free from material misstatement.
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
judgment, including the 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 and fair presentation of the
financial report 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. 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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our audit opinion.
In conducting our audit, we followed applicable independence requirements of Australian professional ethical
pronouncements and the Corporations Act 2001.
In our opinion:
a. The financial report of Genesis Minerals Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001,
including:
i.
giving a true and fair view of the Consolidated Entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2012 and of its
performance for the year ended on that date; and
ii.
complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001;
b. The financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1.
Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1(a)(v) in the financial report which indicates that the
company incurred a net loss of $5,117,531 during the year ended 30 June 2012. This condition, along with
other matters as set forth in Note 1(a)(v), indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast
significant doubt about the ability of the company to continue as a going concern and whether it will realise its
assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial
report.
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in directors’ report of the year ended 30 June 2012. 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.
In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Genesis Minerals Limited for the year ended 30 June 2012,
complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
