Chairman’s Report 

Dear Fellow Shareholder 

I am pleased to present the Annual Report of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2014. 

The 2013/14 year has in many ways been one of Genesis’ most busy years. 

Genesis completed a significant acquisition in March 2014 with the purchase of the Viking Gold Project in Western Australia 
from AngloGold Ashanti Australia. In August 2014 we completed our first drill program there which confirmed the potential of 
the project with high-grade gold results intersected along with near surface oxide mineralisation.  We believe the Viking 
Project gives us the very real opportunity to discover economic gold resources that we can rapidly bring into production 
through either standalone or toll treatment scenario.  Exploration at Viking can be completed rapidly and at a low-cost with 
the cost of drilling having dropped significantly over the past 12 months in Australia.  We look forward to advancing Viking in 
a significant way in the coming 12 months. 

Early in 2014 Genesis renegotiated the agreement over the Las  Opeñas precious and base-metal epithermal project located 
in the pre-cordillera of San Juan Province, Argentina.  Genesis completed a capital raising associated with the renegotiation 
of the agreement.  We were very pleased to welcome the Canadian resource major Teck Resources to the shareholder 
register in a meaningful way and we were delighted that Genesis’ shareholders both old and new have benefited from our 
ongoing involvement at Las Opeñas. 

As  part  of  the  renegotiation  of  the  Las  Opeñas  Project  Genesis  gained  access  to  a  suite  of  early  stage  but  highly 
prospective  gold  projects  in  San  Juan  in  Argentina  held  by  Teck  Argentina  Ltd.    These  Alliance  projects,  being  the 
Castaños,  Espota,  Fierro  and  Fortuna  Projects,  give  Genesis  the  opportunity to discover significant epithermal and or 
porphyry deposits by taking advantage of Teck’s geological knowledge of the San Juan pre-cordillera.  Initial exploration can 
be rapidly completed at low-cost with exploration to commence shortly and we look forward to bringing you news of on these 
projects. 

Genesis continues to pursue the acquisition of other highly prospective, advanced copper and gold projects in Australia, 
Chile, Argentina and elsewhere in Latin America. 

The junior equities markets remain difficult with restrictive access to capital however I remain optimistic about Genesis’ 
future.   

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.

Chairman

Review of Operations  

During the year Genesis Minerals Limited (“Genesis”) purchased 100% 
of the Viking Project (“Viking”) off AngloGold Ashanti Australia Limited 
(“AngloGold  Ashanti”).    Viking  comprises  a  significant  landholding 
(Figure  1)  in  the  Proterozoic  Albany-Fraser  Orogen  (“AFO”)  and 
adjoining  eastern  margin  of  the  Archaean  Yilgarn  Craton  in  what is 
considered  an  emerging  mineral  province  that  has  delivered  the 
Tropicana  gold and the Nova-Bollinger nickel discoveries.  In August 
2014 Genesis completed an initial short drilling program at Viking with 
shallow drilling confirming the strong potential to rapidly define a high-
grade gold system and near surface oxide mineralisation at the high-
priority Beaker Prospect. 

In  March  2014  Genesis  renegotiated  the  agreement  with  Teck 
Argentina  Ltd  a  wholly owned subsidiary of Teck Resources Limited 
(“Teck”)  over  the  Las  Opeñas  precious  and  base-metal  epithermal 
project  (‘Las  Opeñas’)  located  in  the  pre-cordillera  of  San  Juan 
Province, Argentina. Genesis was required to the complete a minimum 
of  2,400m  of  drilling  at  Las  Opeñas  by  September  30,  2014  with 
Genesis retaining its 100% interest in the Las Opeñas Project during 
this  period.    During  June  2014  Genesis  completed  an  eight-hole 
2,400m Phase 2 drill program which targeted the main known zone of 
extensive surface gold and base metal mineralisation, coincident with a 
large breccia system and Induced Polarisation features.  Wide zones of 
low-grade gold and base metals mineralisation was returned along with 
narrow high-grade gold 

As part of the renegotiation of Las Opeñas Genesis also took up the 
opportunity  to explore a number of early stage but highly prospective 
gold  projects  held  by  Teck  being  the  Castaños,  Espota,  Fierro  and 
Fortuna  Projects  in  San  Juan,  Argentina  (Figure  2)  (the  "Alliance 
Projects").   

Viking Project 

During  August  2014  Genesis  commenced  the  systematic  test  of  a 
series of high-grade vein targets and surface gold anomalies that have 
been  outlined  to  date  at  the  7km  x  7km  Beaker  Prospect  near  the 
historical gold centre of Norseman (Figure 3).  The Viking Project offers 
Genesis  the  unique  opportunity  to  define  shallow,  high-grade  gold 
resources  capable  of  being  rapidly  and  cheaply  advanced  towards 
development  with  the  significant  benefit  that  it  is  close  to  existing 
mining infrastructure. 

A  thirteen-hole  confirmatory  1,150m RC program (Figure 3) targeted 
the Beaker 4 and Beaker 2 gold zones which form part of the extensive 
Beaker Gold Prospect.   

Figure 1 

The initial shallow drilling at Beaker 4 focused on the Beaker 4 West 
structure (Figures 4 and 5) the western most structure currently defined 
at the Beaker 4 anomaly.  High-grade gold mineralisation (See Figure 5 
and Table 1) was confirmed from this drilling with best results including (see GMD ASX Release dated Septemb er 8, 2014): 

Figure 2 

  14VKRC001   7m @ 4.02g/t gold from 31m 
  14VKRC002  6m @ 6.04g/t gold from 73m (includes 3m @ 11.35g/t gold) 

Drilling highlighted a north-south trend to the Beaker 4 West structure with gold mineralisation open along strike and at 
depth  (see  Figures  3  to 5).  Future drilling at the Beaker 4 West structure will target the depth and strike extents of the 
Beaker 4 West structure. Mineralisation is associated with a moderately east dipping zone of sulphidic quartz veining within 
a biotite - sericite altered shear zone.

Wide  zones  of  near  surface  oxide  mineralisation 
(see Figures 6 to 7 and Table 1) were intersected at 
Beaker 2 including:  

  14VKRC009

10m (including 5m @ 1.88g/t gold) 

  14VKRC010

5m (including 5m @ 1.91g/t gold)  

  14VKRC011 

15m  @ 0.42g/t gold from 

15m 

These  intersections  form  a  +100m  wide  sub 
horizontal blanket of oxide mineralisation at Beaker 
2  which  requires  systematic  follow  up  over  the 
1.5km  strike  of  the  Beaker  2  gold  anomaly.  
Potential exists to define a large oxide gold system 
associated with a high-grade vein system.

Viking Background  

The Project comprises 6 granted exploration licences 
that  cover  some  530km 2  which  are 
located 
approximately 600km east of Perth and 30km south 
east of the town of Norseman (Figure 8).  Access to 
the  project  area  from  Kalgoorlie  is  via  the  sealed 
Celebration and Kambalda roads to the Coolgardie–
Esperance Highway to Norseman then various 4WD 
tracks  within  the Project.  Access into the Project is 
east  along  the  old  Telegraph Track, 18km south of 
Norseman via the Coolgardie–Esperance Highway. 

Genesis  purchased  AngloGold  Ashanti  Australia 
Limited’s  Viking  Project  Group  2  tenements during 
the  March  2014  Quarter  (see  GMD  ASX  Release 
dated  March  3,  2014).   The total purchase price for 
the project comprised: 

i. 
ii. 

iii. 

a $50,000 payment;  
a Deferred Payment of $2 per Measured or 
Indicated  (JORC  2012)  Resource  ounce 
defined on or partially on the Tenement Area 
as quoted in the first public announcement 
of a Measured or Indicated Resource on or 
partially on the Tenement Area; and 
a  royalty  payable  to  AngloGold  Ashanti 
equal  to  1.25%  of  the  Net  Smelter  Return 
generated from the sale of any gold mined 
or  produced from the Tenement Area, after 
commercial production of 25,000 ounces. 

The Project had received limited exploration prior to 
AngloGold Ashanti commencing ground acquisition in

2007. The majority of the historic work was completed in the Project area was by Western Collieries in the early 1980s 
exploring for lignite/coal within palaeochannels along the eastern margin of the tenements. No economic occurrences were 
identified. 

The Project overlies the south-eastern margin of the Yilgarn Craton and the adjacent Northern Foreland zone of the Albany-
Fraser Orogen.  The Northern Foreland zone is interpreted as variably reworked granites and metasediments of the Yilgarn.  
Northwest-oriented  Yilgarn  structural  trends  can  be  identified  within  the  Northern  Foreland  however  the  effects  of  the 
northeast trending AFO becomes more pronounced towards the Biranup zone to the southeast.  Well-developed pedogenic 
calcrete commonly overprints recent cover sequences. 

The Beaker prospect is located immediately southeast of the NE trending Jerdacuttup Fault within the Northern Foreland 
zone of the Albany Fraser Orogen.  Beaker is located dominantly within a block of variably sheared, folded and thrusted 
Archaean granites that retain some Yilgarn structural trends (NW – SE) and are little affected by the Albany Fraser orogeny.  
This block is bounded by a splay of the major Jerdacuttup Fault to the northwest and by a shear zone to the southeast.  
Both of these structures trend approximately northeast-southwest, parallel to the AFO.

Following the renegotiation of the Las Opeñas agreement Genesis completed a 2,400m drilling program at Las Opeñas 
during June 2014.  The drilling targeted the very  large, partially outcropping epithermal system with drilling intersecting wide 
zones of encouraging mineralisation hosted in breccia.  Results from the wide spaced program (see Table 2 and Figures 9 
to 11) testing the breccia system include:  

  14LODH015  126.4m @ 0.17g/t gold, 3.2g/t silver and 0.20% zinc  
  14LODH015  27.8m @ 0.26g/t gold and 0.52% zinc 
  14LODH015  36.7m @ 0.23g/t gold, 5.6g/t silver, 1.00% zinc and 0.13% lead  

High-grade mineralisation was also intersected associated with ENE trending structures.  Results include: 

  14LODH019  2m @ 7.45g/t gold, 256g/t silver, 0.61% zinc and 1.03% lead  
  14LODH020  1m @ 5.26g/t gold and 31.0g/t silver 

High grade mineralisation is within semi massive sulphide veins and veinlets associated with interpreted strike extensive 
(+5km  combined)  high-grade  structures  (see  Figure  9)  that  are  untested  by  drilling  and  require  systematic  follow  up 
exploration.  These structures are identified in part by mapping, surface rock chip sampling and magnetic interpretation.   
Very wide zones of strongly anomalous base-metal mineralisation (see Figure 11 and Table 2) have been returned from 
holes intersecting breccia hosted mineralisation at Las Opeñas, including: 

  14LODH015 - 307m @ 0.55% zinc from 98m 
  14LODH018 - 192.4m @ 0.50% zinc from 0m 
  14LODH020 - 31.2m @ 0.65% zinc and 0.19% lead from 14.7m 

A large area (700m x 600m) of zinc – lead mineralisation has been outlined closely associated with the breccia system.

Alliance Projects 

Genesis will explore for epithermal and porphyry hosted gold deposits within the Alliance Projects that are located in San 
Juan, Argentina (Figure 2).  The Projects lie within the north-south trending Upper Paleozoic-aged precious and base metal 
belt of the Andes in Argentina.  The Upper Paleozoic belt (Upper Carboniferous to Upper Permian) hosts several gold and 
copper-gold occurrences of porphyry, epithermal and possibly Intrusive Related Gold (IRG) affinity. The belt is roughly 500 
km long and 50 km wide, paralleling the north-south trending international border between Argentina and Chile. 

Genesis intends to leverage off Teck’s geological knowledge of the San Juan pre-cordillera and rapidly complete initial low-
cost, exploration programs over the Alliance Projects.  Exploration of the Alliance Projects in the 2nd half of 2014 will focus 
on  mapping,  geochemical  sampling  and  geophysical  surveying  at  the  Castaños  Project  (Figures 12 to 13) and initial 
geochemical  sampling  of  the  Espota Project (Figure 14) which contains an untested, strike extensive vein and breccia 
system.

OPERATING  AND  FINANCIAL  REVIEW 

Finance Review 
The  Group  has  recorded  an  operating  loss  after  income  tax  for  the  year  ended  30  June  2014  of  $1,757,105  (2013: 
$2,952,294). 
At  30 June 2014 cash assets available totalled $1,239,869 (2013: $1,109,319). 

The net assets of the consolidated entity decreased from $916,020 in 2013 to $755,540 at June 30 2014. This decrease is 
largely due to the following factors: 

• 
• 
• 

exploration of the Group’s projects; 

raising $1.6 million from 2 placements during the year; and 

normal operational overheads incurred in running a listed entity with an overseas subsidiary for 12 months.

Directors' Report continued  

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 $422,427 through the issue of 24,848,649 ordinary shares to institutional and sophisticated investors in 
March 2014. The Group raised $1,179,585 through the issue of 69,331,464 ordinary shares in May 2014.  

AFTER  BALANCE  DATE  EV ENTS 
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 s ubsequent, financial year. The 
directors will reassess this position as and when the need arises. 

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. 

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

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

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 9.25% (unless otherwise stated), and do not receive any other retirement benefits. 

All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Group 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 Group and are able to participate in the employee option plan. 

PERFORMANCE BASED REMUNERATION 

The   Group   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. 

USE OF REMUNERATION CONSULTANTS 

The Group did not employ the services of any remuneration consultants during the financial year ended 30 June 2014. 

VOTING AND COMMENT MADE ON THE GROUP'S 2013 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 

The Company received 100% of “yes” votes on its remuneration report for the 2013 financial year. The Company did not 
receive any specific feedback at the AGM  or throughout the year on its remuneration practices.

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.

Matters  reserved  for  the Board are included on the Company 
website in the Corporate Governance Section. 

The remuneration of management and employees is reviewed 
by the Managing Director and approved by the Board. 
Acting  in  its  ordinary  capacity  the  Board  from  time  to  time 
carries  out  the  process  of  considering  and  determining 
performance issues. 
Matters reserved for the Board can be viewed on the Company 
website. 

Given  the  Group’s  background,  the  nature  and  size  of  its 
business and the current stage of its development, the board 
comprises three directors, two of whom are non-executive.  The 
board believes that this is both appropriate and acceptable at 
this stage of the Group’s development. 

The  position  of Chairman and Managing Director are held by 
separate persons. 

The  full  Board  is  the  Nomination  Committee.  Acting  in  its 
ordinary  capacity  from  time  to  time  as  required,  the  Board 
carries out the process of determining the need for screening 
and appointing new Directors. In view of the size and resources 
available  to  the  Group  it  is  not  considered  that  a  separate 
Nomination  Committee  would  add  any  substance  to  this 
process. 

  Companies should disclose the 
process for evaluating the 
performance of the board, its 
committees and individual 
directors

The Group has established a Code of Conduct which can be

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.

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 30 September 2014. 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 b y 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 2013 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 2013. 

(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  $1,757,105  for  the  year  ended  30  June  2014  (2013:  $2,952,294).  Included within this loss was 
exploration expenditure of $995,148 (2013: $2,008,625). 

The net working capital position of the Group at 30 June 2014 was $779,271 (2013: $932,105) and the net increase in 
cash held during the year was $130,550 (2013: ($930,813)).The Group has expenditure commitments relating to work 
programme obligations of their assets of $398,000 which potentially could fall due in the twelve months to 30 June 2015. 

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. These conditions indicate a material 
uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. 
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 
The financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Genesis Minerals Limited at 
the  end  of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which Genesis Minerals Limited has the power to 
govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. Control will generally exist when the 
parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than half of the voting power of an entity. In assessing the 
power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential voting rights are also considered. 
A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 15 to the financial statements. 

As at reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the financial statements 
as well as their results for the year then ended.

1.  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  (continued) 

In  preparing the financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities in Genesis Minerals 
Limited have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to 
ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity. 

(c) Business Combinations 
Business  combinations  occur  where  an  acquirer  obtains  control  over  one  or  more  businesses  and  results  in  the 
consolidation of its assets and liabilities. 

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or 
businesses  under  common  control.  The acquisition method requires that for each business combination, one of the 
combining entities must be identified as the acquirer (i.e. parent entity).  The business combination will be accounted for as 
at the acquisition date, which is the date that control over the acquiree is obtained by the parent entity. At this date, the 
parent  shall  recognise,  in  the  consolidated  accounts  and  subject  to  certain  limited  exceptions,  the  fair  value  of  the 
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In addition, contingent liabilities of the acquiree will be recognised 
where a present obligation has been incurred and its fair value can be reliably measured. 

The acquisition may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. The method adopted for  the  
measurement  of  goodwill  will  impact  on  the  measurement  of  any  non-controlling  interest  to  be recognised in the 
acquiree where less than 100% ownership interest is held in the acquiree. 

The consideration transferred for a business combination shall form the cost of the investment in the separate financial 
statements.  Such  consideration  is  measured  at  fair  value  at  acquisition  date and consists of the sum of the assets 
transferred by the acquirer, liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interes ts 
issued by the acquirer. 

Included in the measurement of consideration transferred is any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration 
arrangement. Any obligation incurred relating to contingent consideration is classified as either a financial liability or equity 
instrument,  depending  upon  the  nature  of  the  arrangement.  Rights  to  refunds  of  consideration  previously  paid  are 
recognised  as  a  receivable.  Subsequent  to  initial  recognition,  contingent  consideration  classified  as  equity  is  not 
remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset 
or a liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value through the statement of comprehensive income, unless the 
change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date. 

All  transaction  costs  incurred  in  relation  to  the  business  combination  are  expensed  to  Statement of Profit or Loss 
and Other Comprehensive Income. 

(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 b alances 
Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the spot rate on the date of the transaction. 

At  the end of the reporting period: 

• 

Foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate; 

•  Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of 

the transaction; and 

•  Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value are translated using the rate at the date when fair value 

was determined. 

Exchange differences arising on the  settlement of  monetary  items  or  on  translating  monetary  items  at  rates different 
from  those  at  which  they  were  translated on  initial  recognition or  in  prior  reporting  periods are recognised  through 
profit  or  loss,  except  where  they  relate  to  an  item  of  other  comprehensive  income  or  whether they are deferred in 
equity as qualifying hedges.

1.  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  (continued) 

The  financial results and position of  foreign operations whose functional currency  is different  from  Genesis Minerals 
Limited's presentation currency are translated as follows: 

• 

• 

• 

assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date; 

income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for  the period where the average rate 
approximates the rate at the date of the transaction; and 

retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. 

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly  to  Genesis Minerals Limited's 
foreign  currency  translation  reserve  in  the  consolidated  statement  of  financial  position.  These  differences  are 
recognised in the consolidated  statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in  the period in which the 
operation is disposed. 

(e) Revenue and other income 
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue 
can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is  recognised. 

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 for the year comprises current income tax expense and deferred tax  expense. 

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

Current tax  assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered 
from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax  laws used to compute the amount are those that are 
enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date 

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

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

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

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

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

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

Deferred  income tax  assets are  recognised to  the  extent  that  it  is  probable that  future  tax  profits  will  be available 
against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

1.  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  (continued) 

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

(g) Leases 
Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the 
legal ownership that are transferred to the Group are classified as finance leases. 

Finance leases are capitalised by recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the fair value  of 
the  leased property or  the  present value  of  the  minimum lease  payments,  including  any  guaranteed residual values. 
Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest  expense for that period. 

Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the Group 
will obtain ownership of the asset or over the term of the lease. 

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all of the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged 
as expenses on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term. 

(h) Impairment of assets 
At  the  end  of  each  reporting  period,  the  Group  assesses  whether  there  is  any  indication  that  an  asset  may  be 
impaired.  The  assessment  will  include  the  consideration  of  external  and  internal  sources  of information. If such  an 
indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the  asset, being 
the  higher  of  the  asset's  fair  value  less  costs  to  sell  and  value in use to the asset's carrying value.  Value  in  use  is 
calculated  by  discounting  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  of  the  asset  or  cash-generating  unit  (CGU) at a pre-tax 
discount rate reflecting the specific risks in the asset / CGU. Any excess of the asset's carrying  value over its recoverable 
amount is expensed to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other  comprehensive income. 

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

Where  the  future  economic  benefits  of  the  asset  are  not  primarily  dependent  upon  the  asset's  ability  to generate  
net  cash  inflows  and  when  Genesis  Minerals  Limited  would,  if  deprived  of  the  asset,  replace  its  remaining future 
economic benefits, value in use is determined as the depreciated replacement cost of an asset. 

Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGU's are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill to nil and 
then to the other assets in the unit in proportion to their carrying amount. 

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. 

Assets,  other  than  goodwill  that  have  an  allocated  impairment loss are reviewed for reversal indicators at the end of 
each reporting period. After  recognition of an impairment loss, the amortisation charge for the asset is adjusted in future 
periods to allocate the asset's revised carrying amount on a systematic basis over its  remaining useful life. 

Impairment  losses  are  recognised  as  an  expense  immediately,  unless  the  relevant  asset  is  property,  plant  and 
equipment  held  at  fair  value  (other  than  investment  property  carried  at  a  revalued  amount)  in  which  case  the 
impairment  loss  is  treated  as  a  revaluation  decrease  as  described  in  the  accounting  policy  for  property,  plant  and 
equipment. 

Where  an impairment loss on  a  revalued asset is identified, this is debited against  the  revaluation  surplus  in respect 
of  the  same  class  of  asset  to  the  extent  that  the  impairment  loss  does  not  exceed  the  amount  in  the  revaluation 
surplus for that same class of asset.

1.  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  (continued) 

CASH  AND CASH  EQUIVALENTS 
Cash  and  cash  equivalents  include  cash  on  hand,  deposits  held  at  call  with  banks,  other  short-term  highly  liquid 
investments with original maturities of three months or less which are convertible to a known amount of cash and subject 
to  an insignificant risk of  change in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within  short-term borrowings 
in current liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial position. 

FINANCIAL  INSTRUMENTS 

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

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

CLASSIFICATION  AND SUBSEQUENT  MEASUREMENT 
Financial  instruments are subsequently measured at  either fair value, amortised  cost using the effective interest rate 
method,  or  cost.  Fair  value  represents  the  amount  for  which  an  asset  could  be  exchanged  or  a  liability  settled, 
between knowledgeable, willing parties in arm's length transaction. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are 
used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. 

The  classification of  financial instruments depends on the  purpose for which the  investments were acquired. 
Management  determines  the  classification  of  its  investments  at  initial  recognition  and  at  the  end  of  each reporting 
period for held-to-maturity assets. 

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

Loans and receivables are included in current assets, except for those which are not expected to mature within 12 
months after the end of the reporting period. 

SHARE  CAPITAL 
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly  attributable to the  issue of ordinary shares and 
share options for immediate are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects. 

DERECOGNITION 
Financial  assets  are  derecognised  where  the  contractual  rights  to  receipt  of  cash  flows  expires  or  the  asset  is 
transferred  to  another  party  whereby  the  entity  no  longer  has  any  significant  continuing involvement in the risks  and 
benefits  associated  with  the  asset.  Financial  liabilities  are  derecognised  where  the  related  obligations  are  either 
discharged, cancelled or  expired.  The  difference between  the  carrying  value  of  the  financial liability  extinguished or 
transferred  to  another  party  and  the  fair  value  of  consideration  paid,  including  the  transfer  of  non-cash assets or 
liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. 

(M)  PROPERTY,  PLANT  AND  EQUIPMENT 

Each class of property,  plant and equipment is carried at cost or  fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any 
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

1.  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  (continued) 

PLANT  AND EQUIPMENT 
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the asset. 

The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the 
recoverable amount from these assets. The  recoverable amount is assessed on the  basis of the expected  net cash 
flows that  will be received from the asset's employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have 
been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. 

DEPRECIATION 
The  depreciable  amount  of  all  fixed  assets  including  buildings  and  capitalised  leased  assets,  but  excluding 
freehold land, is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset's useful life to the Group commencing from  the time 
the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the  unexpired period 
of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Land is not depreciated. 

The estimated useful lives used for each class of depreciable assets are: 

CLASS  OF  FIXED  ASSET                                                                                                    USEFUL  LIFE  (YEARS) 

Plant and Equipment                                                                                                                             2 to 5 

The assets' residual values, depreciation methods and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end 
of each reporting period. 

(N) EXPLORATION  AND  DEVELOPMENT  EXPENDITURE 

Exploration, evaluation costs are expensed as incurred. 

(O) TRADE  AND OTHER  PAYABLES 

Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the  end of the  reporting period for goods and services 
received by  the Group during the reporting period which remain unpaid. The balance is recognised as a current liability 
with the amounts normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability. 

(P) PROVISIONS 

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

Provisions  are  measured  at  the  present  value  of  management's  best  estimate  of  the  outflow  required  to  settle the 
obligation  at  the  end  of  the  reporting  period.  The  discount  rate  used  is  a  pre-tax  rate  that  reflects  current  market 
assessments  of  the  time  value  of  money  and  the  risks  specific  to  the  liability.  The  increase  in  the  provision due 
to  the  unwinding  of  the  discount  is  taken  to  finance  costs  in  the  consolidated  statement  of  profit  or loss and other 
comprehensive income. 

Provisions  recognised  represent  the  best  estimate  of  the  amounts  required to settle the obligation at the end of the 
reporting period. 

(Q) EMPLOYEE  BENEFITS 

Provision is made for the Group's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the end 
of  the reporting period. Employee benefits that are expected to  be settled within one year  have  been measured at the 
amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled.

Genesis Minerals Limited and controlled entities 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements continued 
30 JUNE 2014 

1.  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  (continued) 

Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash 
outflows  to  be  made  for  those  benefits.  In  determining  the  liability,  consideration  is  given  to  employee  wage 
increases  and  the  probability  that  the  employee  may  satisfy  vesting  requirements.  Those  cashflows  are discounted 
using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected  timing of cashflows. 

EQUITY-SETTLED  COMPENSATION 

The Group operates equity-settled share-based payment share, right and option schemes. The fair value of the equity  to 
which personnel become entitled  is  measured  at  grant  date  and  recognised  as  an  expense over the  vesting period, 
with a corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the  market bid price. The 
fair value of options is ascertained using a Black-Scholes pricing model which incorporates all market vesting  conditions. 
The  amount to be expensed is determined by reference to  the fair  value of  the options, rights or  shares granted.  This 
expense takes in  account any  market performance conditions and the  impact of any non-vesting conditions but ignores 
the effect of any service and non-market performance vesting  conditions. 

Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account when considering the number of options expected to vest. At the end 
of  each reporting period, the Group revises  its  estimate  of  the number of  options or rights which are  expected to vest 
based on the non-market vesting conditions. Revisions to the prior period estimate are  recognised in profit or loss and 
equity. 

(R) BORROWING  COSTS 

Borrowing costs directly  attributable to  the  acquisition, construction or  production of  assets that  necessarily take a 
substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets,  until such time 
as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. 

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. 

(S) EARNINGS  PER  SHARE 

Genesis Minerals Limited presents basic and diluted earnings per share information for its ordinary shares. 

Basic earnings per  share is  calculated by  dividing the  profit  attributable to  owners of  the  company  by  the weighted 
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. 

Diluted  earnings  per  share  adjusts  the  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 
additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive  potential ordinary 
shares. 

(T) GOODS  AND  SERVICES  TAX (GST) 

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

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

(U) CRITICAL  ACCOUNTING  ESTIMATES  AND  JUDGMENTS 

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

1.  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  (continued) 

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities 
The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis, depending 
on the requirements of the applicable Accounting Standard. 
Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly (ie 
unforced) transaction between independent, knowledgeable and willing market participants at the measurement date. 
As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is used to determine 
fair value. Adjustments to market values may be made having regard to the characteristics of the specific asset or liability. 
The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation 
techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. 

To  the  extent  possible,  market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or liability (ie the 
market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the absence of such a market, the most 
advantageous market available to the entity at the end of the reporting period (ie the market that maximises the receipts 
from the sale of the asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction 
costs and transport costs). 

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant's ability to use the asset 
in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. 

The  fair  value  of  liabilities  and  the  entity's  own  equity  instruments  (excluding  those  related to share-based payment 
arrangements)  may  be  valued,  where  there  is  no observable market price in relation to the transfer of such financial 
instruments,  by  reference  to  observable  market  information  where  such instruments are held as assets. Where this 
information is not available, other valuation techniques are adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective 
note to the financial statements. 

Valuation techniques 
In the absence of an active market for an identical asset or liability, the Group selects and uses one or more valuation 
techniques to measure the fair value of the asset or liability, The Group selects a valuation technique that is appropriate in 
the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value. The availability of sufficient and relevant 
data primarily depends on the specific characteristics of the asset or liability being measured. The valuation techniques 
selected by the Group are consistent with one or more of the following valuation approaches: 

Market approach: valuation techniques that use prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions for 
identical or similar assets or liabilities.  

Income approach: valuation techniques that convert estimated future cash flows or income and expenses into a single 
discounted present value. 

Cost approach: valuation techniques that reflect the current replacement cost of an asset at its current service capacity. 

Each valuation technique requires inputs that reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would use when pricing the 
asset or liability, including assumptions about risks. When selecting a valuation technique, the Group gives priority to those 
techniques  that maximise the use of observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs that are 
developed using market data (such as publicly available information on actual transactions) and reflect the assumptions 
that buyers and sellers would generally use when pricing the asset or liability are considered observable, whereas inputs 
for  which  market  data  is  not  available  and  therefore  are  developed  using  the  best  information available about such 
assumptions are considered unobservable. 

Fair value hierarchy 
AASB 13 requires the disclosure of fair value information by level of the fair value hierarchy, which categorises fair value 
measurements  into  one  of  three  possible  levels  based  on  the  lowest  level  that  an  input  that  is  significant  to  the 
measurement can be categorised into as follows: 

Level 1  

Measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can 
access at the measurement date.  

Level 2  

Measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, 
either directly or indirectly

1.  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  (continued) 

Level 3 
Measurements based on unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. 

The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation 
techniques.  These  valuation  techniques  maximise,  to  the  extent  possible,  the  use  of  observable  market  data.  If  all 
significant inputs required to measure fair value are observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If one or more 
significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the asset or liability is included in Level 3. 

The Group would change the categorisation within the fair value hierarchy only in the following circumstances: 

(i) if a market that was previously considered active (Level 1) became inactive (Level 2 or Level 3) or vice versa; or 

(ii) if significant inputs that were previously unobservable (Level 3) became observable (Level 2) or vice versa. 

When a change in the categorisation occurs, the Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy (i.e. 
transfers into and out of each level of the fair value hierarchy) on the date the event or change in circumstances occurred. 

KEY  ESTIMATES  - IMPAIRMENT 
The Group assesses impairment at the end of each reporting year by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that  may 
be  indicative  of  impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of  relevant  assets  are reassessed  using value-in-use 
calculations which incorporate various key assumptions. 

KEY  ESTIMATES  - SHARE  BASED  PAYMENTS 
The  Group  measures  the  cost of equity-settled transactions with personnel 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  external  valuer  using  a  Black 
and Scholes model in the  case of  options and, in the  case of  performance rights, a hybrid share option  pricing  model 
that  simulates the  share price  as at  the  expiry  date  using a  Monte-Carlo  model.  The  valuation involves making key 
estimates such as volatility and expected exercise date. 

(V) ADOPTION  OF  NEW  AND  REVISED  ACCOUNTING  STANDARDS 

New and revised AASB’s affecting amounts reported and/or disclosures in the financial statements 

In  the  current  year,  the  Group  has applied a number of new and revised AASB’s issued by the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board (AASB) that are mandatorily effective from an accounting period on or after 1 January 2013. 

The Group has applied AASB 13 ‘Fair Value Measurement’ for the first time in the current year.  AASB 13 establishes a 
single source of guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures about fair value measurements.  The scope of 
AASB  13 is broad; the fair value measurement requirements of AASB 13 apply to both financial instrument items and non-
financial instrument items. 

AASB 13 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly 
transaction in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions.  Fair 
value under AASB 13 is an exit price regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another 
valuation technique.  Also, AASB 13 includes extensive disclosure requirements. 

In addition, standards on consolidation, joint arrangements, associates and disclosures were adopted.  The impact of the 
application of these standards is not material. 

Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted 

At  the date of authorisation of the financial statements, the Standards and Interpretations listed below were in issue but not 
yet effective. 

The Group does not anticipate that there will be a material effect on the financial statements from the adoption of these 
standards.

2. INCOME  TAX EXPENSE  (continued) 

At  30 June 2014 Genesis Minerals Limited had unused tax losses for which no deferred tax asset has been recognised 
in  the  amount  of  approximately  $2,980,207  (2013:  $2,690,317).  The  availability  of  these  losses  is  subject  to 
satisfying Australian taxation legislation requirements. The deferred tax asset attributable to tax losses has not been 
brought to  account in these financial statements because the Directors believe it is not presently appropriate to regard 
realisation  of the future income tax benefits probable. 

3. CASH  AND  CASH  EQUIVALENTS

7. 
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 2014 is  $779,271 (2013: $932,105)

11. FINANCIAL  RISK  MANAGEMENT 

The  Group's  overall  risk  management  programme  focuses  on  the  unpredictability  of  financial  markets  and  seeks  to 
minimise potential adverse effects and ensure that net cash flows are sufficient to support the delivery of the  Company's 
financial  targets  whilst  protecting  future  financial  security.  The  Group  continually  monitors  and  tests  its  forecasted 
financial position against these objectives. 

The main risks Genesis Minerals Limited is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and 
market risk consisting of interest rate risk, currency risk and commodity price risk. 

The Group's financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks,  accounts receivable and payable and loans to 
subsidiaries. 

The  totals  for  each  category  of  financial instruments, measured in  accordance with  AASB  139  as  detailed in  the 
accounting policies to these financial statements, are as follows:

FINANCIAL  RISK  MANAGEMENT  POLICIES 
The  Board  of  Directors has overall  responsibility for  the  establishment of  Genesis Minerals Limited’s financial risk 
management framework. This includes the development of policies covering specific areas such as foreign exchange 
risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and the use of derivatives. 

Mitigation strategies for specific risks faced are described below: 

The main risks Genesis Minerals Limited is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and 
market risk relating to interest rate risk, currency risk and commodity price risk. 

(A)  CREDIT  RISK 
Exposure to  credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of 
contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to Genesis Minerals Limited and arises principally from Genesis 
Minerals Limited's receivables. 

The  Group’s maximum exposure to  credit  risk  at  the  reporting date  in  relation  to  each class of  recognised financial 
assets  is  the  carrying  amount  of  those  assets  as  indicated  in  the  statement  of  financial  position.  Other  than  cash 
balances  and  term  deposits  held  at  bank  the  Group  does  not have any significant credit risk exposure  to any single 
counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. 

The Group's policy for reducing credit risk is to ensure cash is only invested with counterparties with Standards and 
Poor rating of at least -AA. 

(B)  LIQUIDITY  RISK 
Liquidity risk arises from the  possibility that  Genesis Minerals Limited might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or 
otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group manages this risk through the following 
mechanisms: 

• 

preparing  forward-looking  cash  flow  analysis  in  relation  to  its  operational,  investing  and  financial 
activities which are monitored on a monthly basis; 

•  monitoring  the  state  of  equity  markets  in  conjunction  with  the  Group's  current  and  future  funding 

requirements, with a view to appropriate capital raisings as required; 

•  managing credit risk related to financial assets; 

• 

• 

only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions; and 

comparing  the  maturity  profile  of  current  financial  liabilities  with  the  realisation  profile  of  current financial 
assets. 

(C)  MARKET  RISK 

Market  risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in 
market prices.

11. FINANCIAL  RISK  MANAGEMENT  (continued) 

i. Price risk 
Given the current level of operations, the Group is not exposed to price risk. 

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 recognises assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the Group'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.  At  2014,  the  Group's  Net 
CLP  exposure  was  $5,979,348  (2013:  ($1,541,672))  which  translated  to $11,523 (2013: ($3,237)) AUD. 

Had the AUD weakened/strengthened by 10% against the CLP, there would have been a nil (2013: nil) impact on the 
Group's post tax losses and an immaterial movement to the Group's equity for both years. 

iii. Interest rate risk 
Exposure  to  interest rate  risk  arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at  the  end  of  the 
reporting period, whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed  rate 
financial instruments. The Group is also exposed to earnings volatility on floating rate instruments. 

Interest rate  risk is managed by  maintaining cash in interest bearing accounts and having no interest bearing liabilities. 

ii.  Sensitivity analysis 
The  following sensitivity  analysis is based on  the  interest rate  risk exposures in  existence  at  the  end of  the reporting 
period. 

This analysis assumes that other variables are held constant.

The net exposure at the end of the reporting period is representative of what Genesis Minerals Limited was and is 
expecting to be exposed to at the end of the next twelve months. 

(D)  FAIR  VALUE  ESTIMATION 
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities can be compared to their carrying values as presented in the 
consolidated  statement of  financial position. Fair  values are  those amounts at  which an  asset could be exchanged, or 
a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. 

There are no financial assets or liabilities which are required to be revalued on a recurring basis. 

12. OPERATING  SEGMENTS 

Identification  of reportable segments 
For  management  purposes, the Group is organised into two main operating segments, the exploration of minerals in 
Chile  and  the  corporate  activities  and  administrative  costs  in  Australia.  The  accounting  policies  applied  for  internal 
reporting purposes are consistent with those applied in the preparation of these financial statements. 

Accounting policies adopted 

Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to operating

12. OPERATING  SEGMENTS  (continued) 

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 liab ilities 
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.

The  fair value  for  the  options granted is deemed to  represent the value  of  the  employee services received over  the 
vesting  period.  The  750,000  options  were  issued  in  3  tranches,  each  containing  250,000  options.  Each  tranche 
contained the following vesting conditions: 

• 

• 

• 

Tranche 1 - vest immediately

Directors' Declaration 

In the directors’ opinion: 

(a) 

(b) 

(c) 

the financial statements and notes set out on pages 27 to 49 are in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, 
including: 
(i) 

complying with Accounting Standards, the Corporations Regulations 2001 and other mandatory professional 
reporting requirements; and 
giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2014  and of its  performance for the 
financial year ended on that date; 

(ii) 

there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due 
and payable; and 

a statement that the attached financial statements are in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards 
has been included in the notes to the financial statements. 

The directors have been given the declarations by the chief executive officer and chief financial officer required by section 
295A of the Corporations Act 2001. 

This declaration is made in accordance with a resolution of the directors. 

Michael Fowler 
Managing Director 

Perth, 30 September 2014 

50 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We  have  audited  the  accompanying  financial  report  of  Genesis  Minerals  Limited  (“the 

Company”)  and  Controlled  Entities  (“the  Consolidated  Entity”),  which  comprises  the 

statement of financial position as at 30 June 2014, and the statement of profit or loss and 

other  comprehensive  income,  statement  of  changes  in  equity  and  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 

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 2014 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  statements  also  comply  with  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards  as  disclosed  in 

Note 1. 

Without  qualifying  our  opinion,  we  draw  attention  to  Note  1  in  the  financial  report  which  indicates  that  the 

Consolidated  Entity  had  operating  cash  outflows  of  $1,757,105  during  the  year  ended  30  June  2014.    This 

condition, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which 

may  cast  significant  doubt  about  the  ability  of  the  Consolidated  Entity  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 the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June 2014.  

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  2014, 

complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
