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 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.

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.

                        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.

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.

Directors' Report continued 

REMUNERATION REPORT 
The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001. 

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 

Remuneration Policy 
The remuneration policy of Genesis Minerals Limited has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and 
business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance 
areas affecting the Group’s financial results. The board of Genesis Minerals Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate 
and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the Group. 
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.

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.

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.

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. 

A 
(in part) 

The  skills  and  experience  of  the Directors  are  set  out  in  the  Group’s 
Annual Report and on the website.

objectives and progress in achieving 
them 

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

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.

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

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.

AASB  2010–10:  Further  Amendments  to  Australian  Accounting  Standards  –  Removal  of  Fixed  Dates  for  First-time  Adopters  [AASB 
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.] 
This Standard is not expected to impact the Group. 

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 
 
This Standard is not expected to impact the Group.

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 
(15,103,444) 
(4,109,645) 

2011 
CLP 

45,254,518 
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

The weighted average remaining contractual life of share options outstanding at the end of the financial year was 2.12 years (2011: 2.12), 
with exercise prices ranging from 12 to 31 cents. 

The weighted average fair value of the options granted during the year was 8.6 cents (2011: 7.6). The price was calculated by using the 
Black-Scholes European Option Pricing Model applying the following inputs: 

2012 

2011 

Weighted average exercise price (cents) 
Weighted average life of the option (years) 
Weighted average underlying share price (cents) 
Expected share price volatility 
Risk free interest rate 
Historical volatility has been used as the basis for determining expected share price volatility as it assumed that this is indicative of future 
trends, which may not eventuate.  
The life of the options is based on historical exercise patterns, which may not eventuate in the future.

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.
