ANNUAL REPORT 2021 About Genmin
Genmin is an ambitious iron ore exploration and development company with a pipeline
of projects obtained through nine years of generative growth in the Republic of Gabon,
central West Africa.
The Company holds a 100% interest in six exploration
licences covering approximately 5,270km2. Genmin’s
Baniaka Iron Ore Project (Baniaka) and the Bakoumba
Iron Ore Project (Bakoumba) are located in south-east
Gabon near the provincial city of Franceville where
the Company has an extensive footprint and controls
all acreage prospective for iron ore. Baniaka and Bakoumba
represent a potential iron ore hub with 2,445km2 of
landholding and 121km of iron mineralised strike, with
only 13% drill tested with diamond drilling.
In 2021, Genmin commenced a Preliminary Feasibility
Study (PFS) for Baniaka, the Company’s flagship asset
with a Mineral Resource estimate of more than 260 million
tonnes (Mt) at an in-ground grade of 40.1% Fe1 reported
in accordance with the Australasian Code for Reporting of
Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves
(2012 Edition) (JORC Code).
Baniaka is favourably situated adjacent to existing and
operating bulk commodity transport and renewable energy
infrastructure.
The PFS considers a bulk, open pit mining operation with
proposed initial production of 5 million tonnes per annum
(Mtpa) of iron ore products, and subsequent expansion
to 10Mtpa. The Baniaka PFS is fully funded and due for
completion in the first half of 2022.
Genmin has commenced a Social and Environmental
Impact Assessment (SEIA) at Baniaka as part of the legal
process for a Mining Permit Application.
In the northwest of the country, Genmin is exploring for
iron ore at its early stage Minvoul/Bitam project.

ANNUAL REPORT 2021 Chairman’s
Letter
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
I am pleased to present Genmin Limited’s 2021 Annual Report to shareholders, and review
what was a pivotal year for our company. Genmin has prospered over its first twelve months
as a listed entity, successfully navigating the challenges of the global Coronavirus pandemic
to significantly progress our iron ore exploration assets in Gabon, central West Africa.
Our objective is to create shareholder value by developing
our flagship Baniaka project into a producing iron ore mine
and advancing our other assets. Genmin’s achievements
since listing to date reinforce this objective and exemplify
the Company’s commitment to the task.
On 10 March 2021, Genmin commenced trading on the
Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), after completing an
initial public offering with a capital raising of A$30 million.
Since listing on the ASX, Genmin has achieved a number
of milestones and continues to work steadily to reach
its objective.
In May 2021, we commenced an update of the Detrital Iron
Deposit Mineral Resource Estimate for the Tsengué and
Bandjougoy prospects at Baniaka. Completed in June
2021, the updated resource estimate was published with
Indicated Detrital Iron Deposit Mineral Resources materially
increasing from 11.6 million tonnes to 24.0 million tonnes.
The Baniaka Preliminary Feasibility Study commenced
in August 2021 to assess the development plan and
economics for a bulk, open pit mining operation at Baniaka,
with proposed initial production of 5 million tonnes per
annum of iron ore products and subsequent expansion to
10 million tonnes per annum. The study is on track and the
Board looks forward to reporting the findings, which are
expected at the end of Q2-2022.
In December 2021, completion of the pilot scale
metallurgical test work program by Bond Equipment in
South Africa and the value-in-use assessment by the
Central South University in China, was a major achievement.
Excellent value-in-use results for both Baniaka Fines
and Baniaka Lump iron ore samples confirmed Baniaka’s
potential to produce greener, high quality African iron ore.
Subsequent to these value-in-use results, Genmin entered
three non-binding Memoranda of Understanding with
Chinese parties for the offtake of 16 million tonnes of iron
ore over a period of two to three years. We are encouraged
by this interest for Baniaka’s iron ore products, which align
with China’s long-term strategy for Chinese controlled, and
African-sourced iron ore.
Throughout 2021, the Company expanded the depth and
breadth of its leadership group and team with various key
appointments. I would like to thank Managing Director and
CEO, Mr Joe Ariti Genmin’s founder who established the
Company in 2012. My thanks and congratulations to the
quality team Joe has assembled, for their dedicated work
over the past twelve months, shaping Genmin as a new
ASX Listed entity.
In conclusion, the Board takes this opportunity to thank
both existing and new shareholders for their continued
support. We look forward to updating you on our progress
at Baniaka as we strive to become Gabon’s first iron
ore producer.
Yours sincerely,
Michael Arnett
Non-Executive Chairman

GENMIN LIMITED | 2021 HIGHLIGHTSANNUAL REPORT 2021 16
ANNUAL REPORT 2021 Managing Director’s
Report
Dear fellow shareholders,
2021 was a significant year for our company and I am very pleased to look back on
a successful and productive period whereby we transitioned to a publicly listed iron
ore developer.
Prior to admission to the official list of the ASX our
shareholders had invested approximately US$35 million
to acquire and develop our 100% owned project portfolio.
During this time Genmin secured a footprint of over
5,270km2 of prospective land in Gabon, built strong and
long-lasting relationships with our stakeholders, defined
significant iron ore resources and commenced feasibility
studies on our Baniaka Project.
We listed on the ASX debt free with a market capitalisation
of approximately $136 million. Since then we have, as
planned, utilised some of our IPO funding to progress work
programs relating to the preliminary feasibility study at
Baniaka, plan resource definition drilling at Bakoumba and
continue regional exploration at the Minvoul/Bitam project.
We are targeting the definition of an Oxide Mineral
Resource at Bandjougoy to complement its detrital iron
deposit Mineral Resource and given its potential scale
and proximity to existing Mineral Resources at Tsengué,
Bandjougoy is likely to form the mainstay of initial mining
activities and infrastructure layout in the preliminary
feasibility study for Baniaka.
Not only can Baniaka deliver high-quality raw materials
to the iron making process, but it also fits China’s
decarbonisation policy with greener iron ore products
through a high proportion of Lump and mine site
infrastructure planned to be powered by renewable
hydroelectricity, and, secondly, its strategy to diversify its
raw materials supply chain away from traditional markets.
Baniaka now hosts a total Mineral Resource estimate
of 260 million tonnes at 40% iron with a low percentage
of deleterious elements. Commercial scale pilot plant test
work on the detrital iron deposits and Soft Oxide material
from Baniaka were outstanding. I am particularly pleased
with the achievement of premium 65% Fe product grades
from this plant test work.
During the reporting period, the Company commissioned
Central South University to undertake value-in-use test
work to provide a point of validation for the performance
of Genmin’s potential products in the iron making process
and provide initial exposure of these products in the
Chinese market.
Baniaka Lump has excellent thermal stability and
reducibility, and Baniaka Fines not only delivers high
iron grades and low deleterious elements but improves
Sintering efficiency with a 12.5% increase in productivity
and 8.6% lower solid fuel consumption when substituting
for some Australian Fines and Brazilian Fines currently
used in Sinter feed blends.
While working in Africa presents unique challenges, leading
the team through the COVID-19 pandemic has been
rewarding. I am proud that the design, implementation, and
maintenance of our infection control protocols has resulted
in minimal impact to our operations.
We remain on track to develop Baniaka into an operating
asset and to advance our exploration portfolio. I look
forward to updating shareholders on our activities as
we pursue our ambition of becoming Gabon’s first iron
ore producer.

ANNUAL REPORT 2021 ESG &
Sustainability
Genmin has operated in Gabon for over
nine years and is proud to be a respected
and long-term business partner of the
government and communities in which we
operate.
We are committed to supporting our local communities and
have forged positive and mutually beneficial relationships
with key stakeholders, working collaboratively towards
lasting environmental and economic wellbeing.
We do this by embracing the Gabonese regulatory
framework and international best practices. Genmin
also contributes to Gabon’s national and local economy
through its fiscal contributions to the Mining Administration
Fund which supports the equitable development of local
communities.
As we progress the development of Baniaka, to fulfill our
ambition of becoming Gabon’s first iron ore producer, our
commitment to Environmental, Social and Governance
(ESG) underpins our operating philosophy.
We are progressing the implementation of an ESG
reporting framework to formalise our practices, identify
areas for improvement, and provide full transparency of
our activities to all stakeholders.
CASE STUDY:
LE TOURNOI DES
TROIS FRERES
Genmin is the proud sponsor of a new,
annual football competition for the
communities around Baniaka within the
Haut-Ogooué province. The inaugural Le
tournoi des trois frères (three brothers’
tournament) will bring together local teams
from the communities of Mpassa, Lékoko
and Ogooué Létili. Launching in 2022, the
annual competition will take place on two
major Gabonese public holidays - Labor Day
on 1 May and Independence Day on
17 August.
ESG &
Sustainability
Digbee ESG Platform
Genmin has committed to an industry leading ESG
disclosure framework, which will allow the Company to
report on ESG performance across all operational and
corporate activities.
We have selected the UK-based Digbee ESGTM Platform
(Digbee), which offers standardised disclosure for mining
companies at all stages of maturity.
Managing Director & CEO, Mr Joe Ariti commented: “Our
partnership with Digbee demonstrates our commitment
to achieving full ESG transparency and to being
independently measured against our peers, as we work with
local and international stakeholders to advance our Baniaka
iron ore project to become a supplier of greener, high
value-in-use African iron ore”.
Founder and CEO of Digbee, Mr Jamie Strauss
commented: “Genmin’s decision to embrace ESG
disclosure through an independent assessment will provide
the management and Board with the tools to promote
its sustainable actions as well as identify areas of future
improvement. At the same time, it provides all types of
stakeholders with the means to engage, and reward based
on future actions.”
The Digbee ESGTM Platform presents a standardised, easy
to read ESG score ranging from A (maximum) to CCC
(minimum), with a supporting scorecard for industry and
peer benchmarking.
The ESG score is a measure of how a company is perceived
to be performing on a wide range of ESG topics, calculated
based on how its ESG programs are planned, implemented,
and reported.
This disclosure framework facilitates a culture of continuous
improvement and allows for transparent governance at the
board level.
Digbee’s independent assessments are made by leading
ESG experts, mapped to key global ESG standards
including those set by the World Bank, International Finance
Corporation, United Nations, Equator Principles and the
International Council of Mining and Metals. This impartial,
independent, third-party analysis awards credibility to
mining companies utilising the platform for their ESG
disclosure, through a fair and non-conflictive system.
We anticipate our inaugural Digbee score to be published in
mid-2023.
Health & Safety
We are pleased to report no serious workplace injuries
occurred at any of Genmin’s sites during the year.
The health and safety of our employees, contractors and
stakeholders is integral to the Genmin way. We strive for
zero-harm workplaces through the provision of safe and
healthy work environments. Our commitment to safety is
underpinned by a culture of teamwork through leadership,
to prevent injury, illness and promote wellbeing.
Safety reviews are included in our daily meetings and these
reviews feed into our continuous improvement system.
In response to the growing number of personnel and
increased activity in Gabon, Genmin engaged a full-time
site-based paramedic and health and safety officer. This
shared role provides first-responder coverage at Baniaka’s
Tsengué Base Camp (TBC) for potential incidents or
injuries, and day to day health and safety coordination.
21
GENMIN LIMITED | ESG & SUSTAINABILITYANNUAL REPORT 2021 COVID-19
Gabon continues to experience relatively low COVID-19
case numbers. The country’s national COVID-19
vaccination rate remains low with approximately 10%
of the population fully vaccinated.
Our early and robust response to mitigate potential impacts
of the COVID-19 pandemic has successfully facilitated the
continuation of site-based activities at Baniaka essential
for the PFS work program throughout 2021, and provided
protection of our site-based personnel.
While Genmin personnel are not immune to direct or
indirect exposure to COVID-19 in Gabon, Baniaka and
the TBC are considered low risk by virtue of their remote
location, some 30km distant from the nearest permanent
settlement.
Our business’ exposure to COVID-19 occurs directly
through potential infection of local and expatriate
personnel, and contractors’ workforces, and indirectly
through internal and global logistics chains, specifically the
procurement and transport of supplies and consumables in
support of its operations.
Through the development and implementation of
our COVID-19 Management Plan, we aim to provide
a workplace that meets or exceeds the World Health
Organisation guidelines for COVID-19 mitigation and
management, and ensures continuing operations with
minimal disruption due to the pandemic.
Genmin’s COVID-19 Management Plan has been
developed to minimise the spread of the virus through a
diligent testing regime and safeguard the local workforce
through a Company sponsored vaccination program.
Testing
In addition to any regulatory requirements, all personnel are
required to undertake a Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) prior to
and on arrival at TBC. RAT testing continues for ten days
after arriving at TBC. A negative RAT test is required for
entry to TBC. Isolation protocols are in place for positive
cases identified at TBC. No significant COVID-19 outbreaks
have occurred at TBC.
Workforce and Immediate Families
Vaccination Program
Genmin’s COVID-19 Management Plan includes a provision
for the progressive vaccination of all personnel. To achieve
this, Genmin, working with Gabon’s National Committee
for COVID-19 Vaccination, has implemented a company
sponsored vaccination program for local personnel and
their immediate families. Expatriate personnel working at
Baniaka are required to be fully vaccinated as a term of
their engagement.
The vaccination program commenced on 24 January 2022.
Vaccinations are administered at the Hospital Marcel Abeke
– COMILOG, a Haute-Ogooué provincial vaccination centre
located in the town of Moanda near Baniaka.
Social & Environmental
Impact Assessment
Consulting houses Golder Associates Africa (Pty) Ltd
(Golder1) and TEREA were appointed in September 2021
to manage the SEIA component of the Mining Permit
application required for Baniaka.
Golder has significant recent experience in Africa working
on similar SEIA programs. TEREA, has been engaged to
partner with Golder to undertake the environmental and
social baseline studies based out of its Libreville office.
TEREA also submitted a Project Notification to DGEPN,
on behalf of the Company. The Project Notification marks
the commencement of the formal Mining Permit process.
The Terms of Reference for the SEIA, which set out the
proposed content of the social and environmental base
line data collection program and subsequent impact
assessments, has been prepared in line with the DGEPN’s
recommendations.

Project
The Company’s primary focus is the feasibility (pre-development) stage Baniaka,
which is serviced by several established mining centres including Moanda,
the home to Gabon’s School of Mining and Metallurgy.
Baniaka comprises the Baniaka and Baniaka West
exploration licences covering a total area of 881km2, with a
total strike length of 85km of iron mineralisation. Baniaka is
further subdivided into 12 contiguous prospect areas.
Baniaka is geologically hosted in the Archean Chaillu Massif.
The Chaillu Massif extends to the south into the Republic of
Congo and hosts the Mayoko and Zanaga iron ore deposits.
Baniaka’s iron mineralisation is comprised of:
• a surficial blanket of unconsolidated DID underlain by;
• Oxidised Banded Iron Formations (Oxide) (BIF); in turn
underlain by
•
fresh magnetite BIF (Primary).
The DID and Oxide are enriched in iron and depleted in
impurities relative to the Primary mineralisation. Seven
(7) of the Baniaka prospect areas have MREs reported in
accordance with the JORC Code. Historical assessment
has included iterative metallurgical test work programs
and a mining concept study were completed to test the
amenability of Baniaka ores to shallow open pit mining and
the production of high-grade lump and fine products.

GENMIN LIMITED | OPERATIONS REVIEWANNUAL REPORT 2021 In 2020, Jianlong, China’s second largest privately owned
iron and steel enterprise, was ranked number eight (8) in
Global crude steel production (approximately 36.5Mt) and
in the same year, was ranked number five (5) inside China.
In the first half of 2021, Jianlong commissioned China’s
first hydrogen-based steel making production line, which
uses hydrogen rather than coking coal and blast furnace
technology to produce iron from iron ore. Jianlong’s goal
is to completely replace carbon as a reduction agent in iron
making.
Founded in 1950, Minmetals is one of China’s largest
multinational State-owned Enterprises. It is a major global
organisation involved in the development, production,
trading and value chain of metals and minerals. A key
direction of Minmetals is to ensure security of resources. In
2021, Minmetals ranked number 65 on the Fortune Global
500 (No 1 in the Materials sector) and its annual iron ore
trading volume is estimated at 40Mt.
CDSS is a privately-owned, leading specialist steel producer
in China with annual production of 3.5Mt. Its steel mills are
located near Changzhou City, approximately 180km west of
Shanghai. CDSS specialises in supplying steel to both the
auto industry and lift and escalator manufacturers.
The total quantity for the three (3) non-binding offtake
MoUs is 16Mt, which is in line with the production rates
being studied in the PFS.
Social and Environmental
Impact Assessment
The Company has commenced an SEIA for Baniaka after
the relevant project notification was submitted to DGEPN
in Gabon. A subsequent site inspection to Baniaka by
DGEPN and other government departments, has now
been completed as part of kickstarting the SEIA process.
Genmin is working through the SEIA Terms of Reference
for submission to DGEPN. Completion of the SEIA is a
requirement for a Mining Permit Application. Genmin has
engaged Golder in partnership with TEREA, a French
social environmental consultant with permanent offices
in Libreville, to manage the social and technical data
collection and processing for the SEIA, which is expected
to be complete by the end of 2022. Golder and TEREA
will undertake social, biological and physical baseline
data collection.
Pilot Plant Test Work
In support of the PFS, Bond, a South African specialist
mineral processing and engineering company, was
appointed to carry out pilot scale metallurgical test work
on 13 representative bulk DID and Oxide samples collected
from the PFS Prospects. The purpose of the test work was
to inform the process design criteria for the PFS, confirm
product yields and grade/quality, and provide bulk product
samples for subsequent VIU test work.
The flow sheet for the pilot scale test work was developed
using the results of Genmin’s prior test work campaigns for
Baniaka. These campaigns, which were largely undertaken
in the period 2014-2017, identified washing (scrubbing)
followed by screening and dense media separation as the
preferred process route to achieve optimal mass yields
at market grades for Lump and Fines products. Bond
constructed a purpose-built pilot plant with commercial
sized equipment to process the bulk samples.
Iron product grades from the pilot work range from 63.6 to
65.4%, with overall average mass yields between 55.5 and
65.3%. Average DID Baniaka Lump and Baniaka Fines yields
are 26% and 36% respectively for an overall average mass
yield of 62%, which is in line with earlier test work.
Based on these data, the expected split of Baniaka Lump
and Baniaka Fines product is 48% and 52% respectively.
Further test work was conducted using a pilot scale spiral
test rig to assess the Baniaka Pellet Feed size fraction
(nominally -0.5+0.05mm) focussing on Soft Oxide
mineralisation. A single stage spiral rougher test produced
a concentrate before cleaning of 62.5% Fe at a mass yield
of 41%.
Product samples comprising 700kg Lump and 700kg Fines
were sent to Central South University (CSU), located in
Changsha, Hunan province, central south China, for VIU
test work.
Value-in-use and Offtake
CSU characterised Baniaka Fines and Baniaka Lump
products as high grade (63-64% Fe), low silica (2.5-3.1%)
and low alumina (2.3%), and found low levels of deleterious
elements, suggesting a high-quality raw material for sinter
fines processing and blast furnace iron making.
CSU concluded that the substitution of Baniaka Fines at
up to 20% of the Sinter feed blend could improve Sinter
productivity by 12.5% and reduce solid fuel consumption by
8.6% with no change to the Sinter strength.
Following the positive VIU outcomes, Genmin
entered a total of three (3) non-binding Memoranda
of Understanding (MoUs), one with Jianlong Group
(Jianlong), one with China Minmetals Corporation
(Minmetals) and another with Changzhou Dongfang
Special Steeel (CDSS), for potential offtake agreements
for iron ore products from Baniaka.

GENMIN LIMITED | OPERATIONS REVIEWANNUAL REPORT 2021 Drilling
Mineral Resource Definition
& Growth Drilling
The drilling programs at the PFS Prospects have been
designed to grow the Mineral Resource inventory,
and secondly increase the geological confidence and
accordingly relevant JORC Code Mineral Resource
classification to allow the conversion of Mineral Resources
to Ore Reserves.
The 2021 work programs included:
• 2,930m of diamond drilling for 26 holes targeting
Oxide mineralisation at Bandjougoy;
Geotechnical and Hydrological Drilling
A total of eight (8) diamond geotechnical/hydrological drill
holes for 524.5m were completed in late 2021 in support
of PFS mine optimisation and design. These holes were
designed, and drilling supervised by Golder and tested the
Soft Oxide and DID zones at Bandjougoy and Tsengué.
Additional geotechnical samples were also collected
from pits and trenches at Bingamba North and Flouflou
to provide further geotechnical information for the DID
mineralisation.
Site Infrastructure
Significant upgrades to TBC were made during the early
part of 2021 in support of the site based PFS works.
• Auger drilling also at Bandjougoy, comprised 57 holes
Key work programs included:
for 815m targeting DID mineralisation;
• Auger drilling at Flouflou, comprised 127 holes for
1,706m targeting DID mineralisation;
• Auger drilling at Bingamba North comprised 19 holes
for 220m targeting DID mineralisation;
• 3,000m of reverse circulation (RC) infill drilling
targeting Oxide mineralisation at Bandjougoy; and
•
1,950m of RC infill drilling targeting Oxide mineralisation
at Tsengué.
The Bandjougoy prospect represents the single largest
target for additional oxide mineralisation at Baniaka, with
an Oxide Exploration Target of 67-124Mt at 35-49% Fe1.
• Refurbishment of the 31km access road to support
larger and higher frequency traffic during the PFS;
• Construction of a 50,000 litres bunded fuel storage
facility in support of diamond and RC drilling;
• Construction of stand-alone and COVID-19 isolation
accommodation and ablutions facilities;
• Refurbishment of camp water treatment facilities;
• Construction and expansion of office and technical
workplace facilities; and
• Refurbishment of the on-site sample preparation
laboratory.
1 The Bandjougoy Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource
and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.
35
GENMIN LIMITED | OPERATIONS REVIEWANNUAL REPORT 2021 Bakoumba
Bakoumba is an advanced exploration project, also hosted in the Archean Chaillu Massif, and
located approximately 35km west-southwest of the regional city of Moanda. Genmin has
received favourable sighter metallurgical test work results on a series of DID bulk samples
from Bakoumba. A number of drill targets have been defined for subsequent exploration
drilling in support of the estimation of a maiden DID Mineral Resource.
The results of this test work are highly encouraging and
suggest that this material is amenable to upgrade using
the proposed flowsheet for Baniaka.
Current and Planned
Work Programs
Genmin continues to maintain a logistical base and field
exploration camp at Bakoumba municipality for the
forthcoming drilling program. During the reporting period,
preparatory works in support of commencing exploration
activity included:
• Assessment of required earthworks to refurbish the
access road;
• Assessment of required upgrades for logistics and
camp facilities; and
• Procurement of the necessary spares and consumables
to fully refurbish the Company’s Mobile Drill V2000
Auger rigs.
The work program at Bakoumba for 2022 includes:
• Auger drilling targeting DID mineralisation at Lebombi
North, Koumbi, and Mabinga prospects;
• Estimation of a maiden DID Mineral Resource; and
• Scoping study level assessment of the potential viability
of the DID Mineral Resource.
Exploration History
Previous explorers focused on the base and precious
metals potential at Bakoumba with little acknowledgement
of the iron ore prospectivity. Work completed by Genmin
since acquiring the asset in 2014 includes:
• Detailed geological mapping and surface sampling,
confirming DID and Oxide mineralisation with rock
chip samples returning assays grading 21.2–56.6% Fe
(average 39.4% Fe);
• A total of 510 line-km of ground magnetic surveys,
and subsequent detailed modelling and interpretation
combined with airborne magnetics to define nine (9)
iron prospects; and
• Detailed mapping and pitting (185 vertical linear metres
of test-pitting in 44 pits) of high priority prospects with
27 of the 44 test pits exposing DID mineralisation.
The combined activities of mapping, surface sampling,
geophysical surveys and pitting by the Company have
confirmed a 36km strike length of semi-continuous BIF
at Bakoumba, similar in mode of occurrence to Baniaka.
Bulk samples for 20 of 44 test pits with head grades
greater than 40% Fe were subject to sighter metallurgical
test work, which comprised washing, screening, heavy liquid
separation and/or dense media separation and returned
mass yields ranging:
• 25.1 to 42.2% for Lump at iron grades of 62.3 to
64.3% Fe;
•
11.1 to 16.7% for Fines >1 mm at iron grades of 61.7 to
65.7% Fe; and
• 39.3 to 58.2% for combined Lump and Fines >1 mm
mass yields.

GENMIN LIMITED | OPERATIONS REVIEWANNUAL REPORT 2021 Minvoul/Bitam
Minvoul/Bitam is an early-stage exploration project located in the Woleu-Ntem Province in
northeast Gabon and is geologically hosted in the Archean North Gabon Massif. The North
Gabon Massif extends to the north into Cameroon and the Republic of Congo and hosts
several significant iron ore deposits.
Exploration History
Prior to Genmin’s acquisition, limited exploration for iron
had been completed at Minvoul/Bitam.
Exploration completed by Genmin subsequent to the
acquisition of the project in 2015, commenced with several
extensive reconnaissance mapping and surface sampling
campaigns that yielded encouraging rock chip samples of
BIF or enriched BIF. Iron assays were reported between
22.4% Fe and 64.1% Fe.
A subsequent high resolution magnetic and radiometric
airborne survey comprising a total of 25,842 line-kilometres
was completed to delineate the extent of magnetic BIF
units at the project. This geophysical survey identified
strong linear magnetic anomalies with an estimated total
strike length of 180km for Minvoul and 137km for Bitam with
a combined total of approximately 317km.
It was concluded that the magnetic anomalies identified
during the geophysical work are coincident with iron
mineralisation in the form of magnetite BIF and enriched
BIF, and warrant further systematic exploration for DID,
Oxide, and Primary BIF mineralisation.
Further assessment of the airborne geophysics identified
the presence of numerous thorium anomalies considered
to be high Th granitic intrusions. The presence of these
granitic intrusions implies prospectivity for intrusion-
related gold, iron ore copper-gold, porphyry copper-gold
and associated epithermal mineral systems. Genmin
subsequently considers the project to be prospective
for iron ore, gold and base metals, and has commenced
exploration works to test these hypotheses.
The Bitam exploration licence carries an endorsement for
iron, gold, copper and other metals.

Directors Report
Review of Results
and Operations
During FY21, the Group invested US$4.14m (2020:
US$1.21m) in exploration and PFS related activities.
The significant increase was a result of the successful
IPO followed by conducting the work as set out in the
Prospectus.
For FY21, the Group recorded a loss after tax of US$3.99m
(2020: US$2.81m), the increase was mainly caused by the
FX loss of US$1.14m (2020: US$ nil) as the Group’s actual

•
the selection, composition, performance and
appointment of members of the Board so that it is

and Nomination Committee Charter, which is
available on Genmin’s website under the Corporate

Executives who create value for shareholders; and
50
GENMIN LIMITED | REMUNERATION REPORTANNUAL REPORT 2021 Remuneration Policy
Non-Executive Director Remuneration
The overall level of annual Non-Executive Director fees
is approved by shareholders in accordance with the
requirements of the Corporations Act. In setting the fees,
the Board has regard to market rates and the circumstances
of the Company and consequent expected workloads of
the Directors.
The Board decides on actual fees to be received by
individual Directors within the quantum approved by
shareholders. The Non-Executive Director fees were set
at US$60,000 inclusive of statutory superannuation (if
applicable) and the Chairman’s fee at US$80,000 inclusive
of statutory superannuation (if applicable).
Mr Hodder does not receive any Non-Executive Director
fees from the Company as he is separately remunerated
by Tembo.
The Directors do not receive any additional fees for
membership on any of the Board committees. However,
any Director who performs extra services, makes any
special exertions for the benefit of the Company or who
otherwise performs services which, in the opinion of the
Board, are outside the scope of the ordinary duties of
a Non-Executive Director, may be remunerated for the
services (as determined by the Board) out of the funds
of the Company.
Non-Executive Directors may be invited to participate in
the Company’s Plan. Participation in the Plan is subject
to shareholder approval and will occur where the Board
believes it is in the best interests of the Company to include
Non-Executive Directors in the Plan, in particular where
such inclusion is designed to encourage Non-Executive
Directors to have a greater involvement in the achievement
of Genmin’s objectives.
The number of Rights pursuant to the Plan and the
hurdles attached to the Rights to be issued to Directors
are determined based on factors such as the role of the
Non-Executive Directors in the Company and their
involvement in achieving the objectives of the Company.
Managing Director and Senior Executive
Remuneration
The objective of the Company’s executive remuneration
is to ensure reward for performance is market competitive
and appropriate for the results delivered. The Executive
remuneration is aligned with achievement of strategic
and operational objectives and the creation of value for
shareholders.
Genmin plans to review and align its remuneration with
that of comparable organisations for roles at all levels
of the Company so that remuneration comprises both
fixed remuneration and performance based (at risk)
remuneration. The proportion of an employee’s total
remuneration that is at risk will increase with seniority and
with the individual’s ability to impact the performance of
the Company.
In accordance with accepted practice, it is intended that
the at risk elements of total remuneration will comprise
both short term incentives as a reward for performance
and long-term incentives that align medium and long term
shareholder interests.
Fixed Remuneration
Fixed remuneration of senior executives is to be
at a sufficient level to provide full and appropriate
compensation for the roles and responsibilities of that
executive. Fixed remuneration is to be set having regard
to the levels paid in comparable organisations at the time
of recruitment to the position, recognising the need to
maintain flexibility to take into account an individual’s
experience or specialist skills and market demand for
particular roles.
At Risk Remuneration
In addition to fixed remuneration more senior employees
may be entitled to performance based remuneration, which
will be paid to reward superior (as opposed to satisfactory)
performance.
Performance based remuneration is calculated against
predetermined and challenging targets, based on a
percentage of the relevant executive’s package, and
reviewed by the Board to guard against anomalous or
unequitable outcomes.
Performance based remuneration can comprise both short
term (usually annual) and long term (3-5 year) incentives.
Short-term Incentives
The Company currently does not have a short-term
incentive (STI) plan. The RNC regularly assesses the
situation and may consider developing a STI plan,
when necessary.
51
ANNUAL REPORT 2021GENMIN LIMITED | REMUNERATION REPORT Long-term Incentives
Long term incentives (LTI) may be provided to certain senior executives to reward creation of shareholder value and
provide incentives to create further value.
LTI awards will occur through the Plan. The Plan forms the “at risk” component of remuneration and Rights will generally
have a vesting period longer than one year.
The Rights are issued for no consideration and upon achievement of the relevant milestone, each will entitle the holder
to one fully paid ordinary share in the Company (unless the Board resolves in accordance with the Plan to provide an
equivalent cash payment). If the milestone is not achieved by the relevant expiry date, the Rights will lapse (unless
otherwise determined by the Board in accordance with the Plan).
LTI performance is measured annually and subject to the achievement of the performance hurdles, Rights will vest at the
completion of the annual review.
Target Remuneration Mix
The target remuneration mix for the Year is shown in the table below.
Fixed Remuneration - 40%
At Risk Remuneration - 60%

Relationship between Remuneration Policy and Company Performance
During the Year, the Company granted Performance Rights to KMP subject to various vesting conditions linked to the
Company’s three-to-five-year growth strategy and/or share price. Given the Company is still at exploration/feasibility
study stage and the Company does not currently generate any operating revenue, the Company did not set any STI for
the Year.
Details of KMP Rights are listed in the Share-based Payments section of the Remuneration Report.

Following shareholder approval at the AGM held on 27 May 2021, the Company amended Mr Amico’s Rights on the same
day. The closing share price of 27 May 2021 was AU$0.285. The fair value of the original Rights was US$1.01 per Right. For
the purpose of AASB 2, the amendments were treated as a beneficial modification. Given the share price at the point of
the amendment is lower than the original fair value, the fair value for the amended Rights remains at US$1.01.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2021
1. Statement of significant accounting policies
The Directors’ have prepared the general purpose financial statements of Genmin and its Controlled Entities
(the Group) in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, the Australian Accounting
Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. Compliance
with the Australian Accounting Standards results in full compliance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Genmin is a for-profit
entity for the purpose of preparing financial statements under Australian Accounting Standards.
Genmin is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Genmin listed on the ASX on
10 March 2021. The financial statements have been presented in United States Dollars (US$).
1.1 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs modified
by the revaluation of selected non-current assets and financial instruments for which the fair value basis of
accounting has been applied.
1.2 Basis of consolidation
The Group financial statements consolidate those of the parent Company and all its subsidiaries as of 31
December 2021. The parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its
involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the subsidiary.
All transactions and balances between group companies are eliminated on consolidation, including unrealised
gains and losses on transactions between group companies. Where unrealised losses on intra-group asset
sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment from a group
perspective. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary
to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are
recognised from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.
Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the portion of a subsidiary’s profit or loss and
net assets that is not held by the Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or loss of
subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on their respective
ownership interests.
1.3 Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currencies
The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States Dollars (US$).
The functional currency of the Group’s subsidiaries in Gabon and Republic of the Congo is CFA franc (XAF).
The rest of the Group’s subsidiaries and the parent company use US dollars as their functional currency.
Transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at their respective functional
currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition.
2021 | Financial Report 35
68
GENMIN LIMITED | NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSANNUAL REPORT 2021
Financial Report
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2021
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot
rates of exchange at the reporting date.
Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss with the
exception of monetary items that are designated as part of the hedge of the Group’s net investment in a foreign
operation. These are recognised in OCI until the net investment is disposed of, at which time, the cumulative
amount is reclassified to profit or loss. Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those
monetary items are also recognised in OCI.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the
exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign
currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or
loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition
of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item.
In determining the spot exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income on
the derecognition of a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability relating to advance consideration, the date
of the transaction is the date on which the Group initially recognises the non-monetary asset or non-monetary
liability arising from the advance consideration. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, Genmin
determines the transaction date for each payment or receipt of advance consideration.
Consolidation
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into US$ at the rate of exchange
prevailing at the reporting date and their statements of profit or loss are translated at the average exchange
rate for the period. The exchange differences arising on translation for consolidation are recognised in OCI.
On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of OCI relating to that particular foreign operation is
reclassified to profit or loss.
Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign
operation and translated at the spot rate of exchange at the reporting date.
1.4 Revenue
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.
Interest
Interest income is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.
Sale of assets
Sale of assets is recognised when the Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of
ownership.
1.5 Operating expenses
Operating expenses are recognised in profit or loss upon utilisation of the goods and service or at the date of
their origin.
1.6 Income tax
The income tax expense / (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense / (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.
2021 | Financial Report 36
69
GENMIN LIMITED | NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSANNUAL REPORT 2021
Financial Report
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2021
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 operate and generate taxable
income. The Board 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, deferred tax 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 or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or
substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred
income tax asset is realised, or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
A deferred tax liability in relation to investment property that is measured at fair value is determined assuming
the property will be recovered entirely through sale. 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 foreign operations where the Group 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.
1.7 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid
investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant
risk of changes in value.
Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial
position.
1.8 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at acquisition cost or manufacturing cost, including any
costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of
operating in the manner intended by the Group’s management.
Assets are subsequently measured using the cost model, cost less subsequent depreciation and impairment
losses. Depreciation is recognised on a straight-line basis to write down the cost less estimated residual value
of the assets. The following useful lives are applied:
• Plant and equipment: three (3) to five (5) years
• Office furniture and fittings: four (4) to five (5) years
Material residual value estimates and estimates of useful life are updated as required, but at least annually.
Gains or losses arising on the disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference
between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in profit or loss
within other income or other expenses.

GENMIN LIMITED | NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSANNUAL REPORT 2021
Financial Report
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2021
Useful lives of depreciable assets
Management reviews the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting date, based on the expected
utility of the assets to the Group. Actual results, however, may vary due to technical obsolescence, particularly
relating to software and IT equipment. The effect of any changes in estimates are accounted for on a
prospective basis.
Impairment Testing of Property Plant & Equipment
Assets are tested 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 of disposal 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 that suffered impairment
are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
1.9 Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as an
exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where the following conditions are
satisfied:
(a)
the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and
(b) at least one of the following conditions is also met:
(i)
the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful
development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or
(ii) exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the balance date reached a
stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically
recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest
are continuing.
Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore,
studies, exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of
depreciation and amortisation of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities. General and
administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where they
are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that
the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. The
recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which it has
been allocated being no larger than the relevant area of interest) is estimated to determine the extent of the
impairment loss (if any).
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the
revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does
not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised
for the asset in previous years.
Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the
relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance is then reclassified to
development.

for the year ended 31 December 2021
1.10 Equity and reserves
Share capital represents the historical value of shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs associated
with the issuing of shares are deducted from share capital.
• Foreign currency translation reserve – comprises foreign currency translation differences arising
on the translation of financial statements of the Group’s foreign entities into US Dollars.
• Acquisition of non-controlling interest reserve – comprises the amount of share capital issued by
the Parent of the Group in order to acquire non-controlling interests in subsidiaries.
• Options reserve – comprises the amount of options issued in lieu of payment of costs incurred.
• Performance right reserve – comprises the amount of performance rights issued.
1.11 Employee benefits
Share-based payment
Employees (including directors) of the Group may receive remuneration (e.g. performance rights) in the form
of share-based payments.
Equity-settled transactions
The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using
an appropriate valuation method.
That cost is recognised in employee benefits expense, together with a corresponding increase in equity
(performance rights reserves), over the period in which the service and, where applicable, the performance
conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period). The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions
at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the
Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. At each reporting date, the
Group revise its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest as a result of the effect of non-
market conditions. The expense or credit in the statement of profit or loss for a period represents the movement
in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.
Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date
fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Group’s best
estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are
reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated
service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the
fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or
performance conditions.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or
service conditions have not been met. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the
transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied,
provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.
When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognised is the grant date
fair value of the unmodified award, provided the original vesting terms of the award are met. An additional
expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognised for any modification that increases the total
fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee. Where an award
is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is
expensed immediately through profit or loss.

Financial Report
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2021
Cash-settled transactions
A liability is recognised for the fair value of cash-settled transactions. The fair value is measured initially and
at each reporting date up to and including the settlement date, with changes in fair value recognised in
employee benefits expense. The fair value is expensed over the period until the vesting date with recognition
of a corresponding liability. The approach used to account for vesting conditions when measuring equity-settled
transactions also applies to cash-settled transactions.
1.12 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions for legal disputes, onerous contracts or other claims are recognised when the Group has a present
legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic resources
will be required from the Group and amounts can be estimated reliably. Timing or amount of the outflow may
still be uncertain.
Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation, based on the
most reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the
present obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be
required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. Provisions are
discounted to their present values, where the time value of money is material.
Any reimbursement that the Group can be virtually certain to collect from a third party with respect to the
obligation is recognised as a separate asset. However, this asset may not exceed the amount of the related
provision.
No liability is recognised if an outflow of economic resources as a result of present obligation is not probable.
Such situations are disclosed as contingent liabilities, unless the outflow of resources is remote in which case
no liability is recognised.
1.13 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 Taxation Office or the relevant taxation jurisdiction that the
Group operates in. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset
or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive
of GST if the GST is not recoverable.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of
investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
1.14 Impairment of non-financial assets
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of non-financial assets to determine whether
there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable
amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared
to the asset’s carrying value. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their
present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money
and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of profit or
loss and other comprehensive income.

1.15 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 instruments. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the Company commits
itself to either purchase or sell the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted).
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instruments
are classified ‘at fair value through profit or loss’ in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss
immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below.
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 price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to
transfer a liability in orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where
available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation
techniques are adopted. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable
market data.
Amortised cost is calculated as (i) the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at
initial recognition; (ii) less principal repayments; (iii) plus or minus the cumulative amortization of the difference,
if any, between the amount initially recognised and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest
method; and (iv) less any reduction for impairment.
The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period
and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees,
transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliability
predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carry amount of the financial asset or
financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying
value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense in profit or loss. The Group does not designate
any interest in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the requirements of
accounting standards specifically applicable to financial statements.
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss or through other comprehensive Income
Financial assets are classified at ‘fair value through profit or loss’ or ‘Fair value through other comprehensive
Income’ when they are either held for trading for purposes of short term profit taking, derivatives not held for
hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable
performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair
value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Such assets are
subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in profit or loss if electing
to choose ‘fair value through profit or loss’ or other comprehensive income if electing ‘Fair Value through other
comprehensive income’.
(ii) Financial Liabilities
The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loan and borrowings, provisions for cash
bonus and other liabilities which include deferred cash consideration and deferred equity consideration for
acquisition of subsidiaries & associates.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings, and
payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
2021 | Financial Report 41
74
GENMIN LIMITED | NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSANNUAL REPORT 2021
Financial Report
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2021
Fair value
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are
applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions,
reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipts of cash flows expire or the asset is
transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risk
and benefits associated with the asset. Financial Liabilities are recognised where the related obligations are
either discharged, cancelled or expire. 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.
Derivative financial instruments
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are
subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. The accounting for subsequent changes
in fair value depends on the nature of the derivative and are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
1.16 Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies
Adoption of new and revised Standards
Genmin has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian
Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for an accounting
period that begins on or after 1 January 2021.
Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted
Genmin has reviewed the new and revised Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted for the year
ended 31 December 2021. As a result of this review the entity has determined that there is no material impact
of the Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted on the entity; therefore, no change is necessary
to entity accounting policies.
When preparing the financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and
assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting policies of the Group that
have the most significant effect on the financial statements.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
The Group capitalises exploration expenditure where it is considered likely to be recoverable or where the
activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of resources or
reserves. While there are certain areas of interest from which no reserves have been extracted, the directors
are of the view that such expenditure should not be written off since feasibility studies in such areas have not
yet concluded. In addition, the Group assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating
conditions and events specific to the Group, that may be indicative of impairment triggers.
Rights
The Board of Directors review the Rights on a regular basis to determine whether the conditions have been
met; and to assess likelihood of the performance conditions being fulfilled. Once the review is completed, the
Company makes the accounting adjustments to reflect the results from the review.

Potential deferred tax assets attributable to tax losses have not been brought to account at 31 December
2021 because the directors do not believe it is appropriate to regard realisation of the deferred tax assets as
probable at this time. These benefits will only be obtained if:
a) The company and the Group derive future assessable income of a nature and an amount sufficient
to enable the benefit from the deductions for the losses to be realised;
b) The company and the Group continue to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by law;
and
c) No changes in tax legislation adversely affect the ability of the Company and consolidated entity to
realise these benefits.

On 13 February 2017, Genmin entered into the Royalty Sale Agreement with Cape Lambert Resources
Limited (Cape Lambert) to purchase the royalty rights under the Deferred Consideration Deed – Mayoko
Iron Ore Project (Deed) for a total consideration of AU$1,000,000.
The current owner of the Mayoko Iron Ore Project (Mayoko Project) is SAPRO Mayoko SA (SAPRO). The
mining permit was granted on 9 August 2013 and is valid for 25 years.
Genmin is entitled to a royalty payment from the owner of the Mayoko Project of AU$1.00 per dry metric
tonne of iron ore product shipped from the Mayoko Project, which is escalated annually at CPI from a 2011
base date (Mayoko Royalty).
On 8 February 2018, Cape Lambert and Genmin agreed to vary the Royalty Sale Agreement and Genmin
would pay the consideration in two tranches:
• Current Cash Payment: AU$500,000 payable on completion and;
• Deferred Cash Payment: AU$500,000 payable within ten (10) business days after receipt of first
payment of the Mayoko Royalty.
As a result, Genmin classified the Mayoko Royalty as an Intangible Asset and booked it at cost of
US$395,285 (AU$500,000).
For the year ended 31 December 2021, the Mayoko Royalty payment condition has not yet been satisfied
as the Mayoko Project has not achieved commercial production. The carrying amount of the Mayoko Royalty
as at 31 December 2021 remains unchanged.

On 1 May 2020, Genmin signed the Convertible Note Deed (Deed) with Tembo Capital Mining Fund LP
(Tembo Fund). The Deed was approved by Genmin’s shareholders at the 2020 Annual General Meeting.
The key terms of the Deed are as follows:
• Genmin to raise up to US$3m by issuing up to 30,000 unsecured convertible note to Tembo Fund at
a face value of US$100 each, convertible into fully paid ordinary shares of Genmin (Facility);
• An establishment fee of 2% and interest rate of 10% per annum is payable on the Facility;
• The Facility has a Maturity Date of 30 June 2021, and the Repayment Amount will be due and payable
on 31 December 2021.
• Subject to certain regulatory approvals, Tembo Fund may elect to convert the notes into conversion
shares at the conversion price, which will equal or higher of:
o 100% subtract the 15% discount rate then multiplied by the price per share payable on the
basis of the fair market value that is determined by an independent expert and;
the floor price, which is US$0.15 per share.
o
Tembo Fund retrospectively received the Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB) approval of the Deed on

expects it will be able to meet any expenditure obligations imposed for any of the Exploration Licences that it
holds in the normal course of operations. If any expenditure obligations are not met, then the Company has
the ability to request a waiver of these obligations or to negotiate amended obligations for the remaining term
of the Exploration Licence or relinquish the Exploration Licence. The current total commitment over the next
three years is around US$2.5m.
Contingencies – Tax Audit on Genmin Congo
The Tax Authority in Republic of Congo conducted a tax audit on Genmin Congo SA for the calendar years
2017 and 2018. On 26 November 2021, the Tax Authority issued the Amended Confirmation of Adjustment,
and it states the amount owed to the Tax Authority is XAF 127,550,302 FCFA (US$220,534). Upon receiving
a Collection Notice, Genmin Congo will have three months to file an application to dispute the tax audit findings.

21. Financial instrument risk
21.1 Risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise of cash. The main purpose of these financial instruments
is to provide working capital for the Group and to fund its operations.
The Group does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes. The most
significant financial risks to which the Group is exposed are described below.
21.2 Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring cash levels on an ongoing basis against budget and forecast
cash flows. The Group’s operations require it to raise capital to fund its exploration program.
21.3 Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial
loss to the group. All cash balances held at banks are held at internationally recognised institutions.
21.4 Interest rate risk
The Group has minimal interest rate risk arising from cash and cash equivalents held as funds are held in US$
and converted to AU$ as required. Interest payable on US$ deposits is negligible.
21.5 Foreign currency risk
As a result of the Group operating overseas (Gabon), the Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk from
commercial transactions and recognised assets denominated in a currency that is not the Group’s functional
currency. The Group also has transactional currency exposures. Such exposure arises from purchases by an
operating entity other than the Group’s functional currency. The Group does not enter into forward foreign
exchange contracts or any other forms of foreign currency protection instruments and does not have a hedging
policy.
22. Fair value measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position are grouped
into three levels of a fair value hierarchy. The three levels are defined based on the observability of significant
inputs to the measurement, as follows:
• Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly
• Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The Group has recognised a retrospective embedded derivative upon receiving FIRB approval on 25
November 2020 (see Note 17). Genmin commissioned an independent valuation consultant to provide an
indicative share price for the purpose of the performance rights. Genmin used the same valuation methodology
and parameters to calculate the value of the embedded derivative for accounting purposes.
In the absence of an active market for an identical liability, the Group has selected a valuation technique that
is appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value.
An income approach has been used to convert estimated future cash flows into a single discounted present
value. The derivative was subsequently remeasured at reporting date will not change in value.
23. Capital management
When managing capital, the Board’s objective is to ensure the Group continues as a going concern as well as
to maximise the returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Board also aims to maintain
a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the entity.
The Board is constantly reviewing the capital structure to take advantage of favourable costs of capital or high
return on assets. As the market is constantly changing, the Board may issue new shares, return capital to
shareholders or sell assets.
