Chairperson’s Address 

On  behalf of  the  Board of  Globe  Metals  &  Mining Limited  (“Globe”  or  “the  Group”),  it  is my  pleasure  to 
present to you the 2018 Annual Report. 

Consistent with the strategy outlined in my address in the 2017 Annual Report, the Group has maintained 
momentum  on  cost  reductions  while  advancing  the  development  agreement  for  Kanyika,  updating  the 
engineering  studies  and  designs  as  part  of  a  program  aimed  at  finalising  the  technical  components  of  a 
Feasibility Study, and assessing a range of project financing options. 

The negotiations for the Kanyika Development Agreement with the Government of Malawi are progressing 
well with only a few areas requiring finalisation.  The feasibility study, technical designs and development 
plans are largely complete leaving the future focus firmly on project funding and off-take arrangements.  As 
a consequence of the demand and price outlook for niobium improving and financing opportunities gathering 
momentum  in  recent  times,  the  Board  and  management  is  optimistic  in  realising  project  financing  and 
development opportunities in the near term. 

On  a  positive  note  for  Kanyika,  global  steel  demand  is  predicted  to  maintain  strong  growth  driven  by 
infrastructure investment in developed and developing companies, according to latest reports by the World 
Steel  Association.   Worldsteel  forecasts  that  the  growth  in  global  steel  demand  will  be  4.5%  in  2019  in 
emerging and developing economies (excluding China).  And as demand for higher quality steels rises as a 
proportion of all steel demand, the need for niobium is increasing at a faster rate than steel output.  Industry 
reports forecast that the usage of niobium in steel production should increase by about CAGR 12% over the 
next decade.  These combinations of growth and demand bode well for the price of niobium.  As does the 
new  emerging  market  of  niobium  in  new  technologies  like  wind  turbines,  medical  imaging,  particle 
accelerators, as well as an exciting development in the manufacture of batteries for electrical vehicles.  In 
October  2017,  Toshiba  announced  that  niobium  would  be  a  critical  component  of  its  next  generation 
SCiBTM  rechargeable battery for electric vehicles; which it aims to have in production by fiscal year 2019, and 
which will have much improved performance, longer-life, quicker charging, and improved safety. 

In the coming year the Group will continue to be cost prudent, review and consider other cash generation 
opportunities  that  are  accretive  to shareholder value, and maintain momentum on Kanyika development 
opportunities.  

In closing, I thank all shareholders, board of directors, and employees for their support of the Group in the 
year past and I am looking forward to their continued support in the year to come.  

Yours sincerely, 
GLOBE METALS & MINING LIMITED 

ALICE WONG

•  advancing  its  Kanyika  Niobium  Project  towards  production  by  progressing  with  its  mining  licence 
application, that is only conditional on the finalisation of a Development Agreement and by seeking 
out and assessing a range of financing options; and 

•  assessment of other project opportunities focussed on cash-flow generation. 

Review of Operations 

Globe Metals and Mining Limited (Globe) is an Australian registered public company and has been listed on 
the ASX  since December  2005 (ASX: GBE). The Company has an administration and operational centre  in 
Lilongwe, Malawi in support of its on-the-ground Project exploration activities that currently employs 4 staff.  
The Malawi operations are supported from Globe’s corporate head office in Perth, Australia.    

Globe’s  Kanyika  Niobium Project,  which  is  located  in  central Malawi,  has  contains  niobium and  tantalum 
mineralisation commodities that are key additives in steel manufacture and electronics.   

Kanyika Niobium Project  

Overview 

Globe identified niobium and tantalum mineralisation in 2007 at Kanyika.  Subsequent drilling confirmed the 
mineralisation leading to an extensive exploration and metallurgical testwork program.  A scoping study in 
2008 and further drilling led to a feasibility study in 2012 and the release of a JORC (2004) Mineral Resource 
Estimate in January 2013 (refer below). 

During 2013, Globe commissioned metallurgical optimisation work, and subsequently in 2014 commissioned 
a pilot plant to demonstrate and further optimise metallurgical processes.

Product Marketing and Off-Take 

Globe continues to explore avenues for KNP product off-take to complete the KNP definitive feasibility study. 
In  an  effort  to  satisfy  purchasers  seeking  high-purity  niobium  products  –  samples  were  prepared  and 
distributed. 

Intellectual Property 

Intellectual property (IP) developed as part of the KNP feasibility study and subsequent optimisation work 
has  been  consolidated  into  provisional  patent  applications  that  were  initially  filed  with  IP  Australia  and 
subsequently filed with African Regional Intellectual Property Organisation (ARIPO).  

Development Agreement  

The Kanyika Exclusive Prospecting Licence (EPL1088) was due for expiry at the end of December 2014.  In 
early December 2014, Globe applied for a Mining Licence.  Globe received notification in June 2015 from 
Malawi Ministry of Natural Resources, Energy & Mining (MMNREM) that its application for a Mining Lease, 
currently registered as AML0026, has been approved subject to completion of a Development Agreement.  
The Development Agreement negotiations are continuing in good faith with the Government of Malawi. 

Government and Community Relations  

The Kanyika Workplace Certificate was renewed by the Ministry of Labour. The Relocation Plan is with the 
Ministry of Labour. A review of the Environmental Impact Assessment will be undertaken at the completion 
of optimisation activities. 

Project Development and Financing 

During  the  year,  the  executive  team  examined  opportunities  for  project  enhancement,  including 
reconfiguration of project arrangements, and had advanced discussion with various regulators, stakeholders 
and other parties regarding project development and financing.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2018 

REMUNERATION REPORT - AUDITED 

This remuneration report for the year ended 30 June 2018 outlines the remuneration arrangements of the Group in accordance with 
the requirements of Corporations Act 2001 (the Act) and its regulations.  This information has been audited as required by Section 
308(3C) of the Act. 

The remuneration report details the remuneration arrangements for Key Management Personnel (KMP) who are defined as those 
persons  having  authority  and  responsibility  for  planning,  directing  and  controlling  the  major  activities  of  the  Group,  directly  or 
indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the parent. 

For the purposes of this report, the term “executive” includes the Managing Director (MD), executive directors (where applicable) 
and senior executives of the Group. 

A. 

Remuneration Governance 

The Board of Directors has established a Committee for the purpose of reviewing and making recommendations with respect to the 
remuneration practices of the Company.   

The Committee comprises Mr Alex Ko (Chairperson), Mr Bill Hayden and Ms Alice Wong; all of whom are non-executive directors. 

The Board of Directors has prepared and approved a charter as the basis on which the Committee will be constituted and operated.  
The role of the Committee is to provide a mechanism for the determination, implementation and assessment of the remuneration 
practices of the Company, including remuneration packages and incentive schemes for executive Directors and senior management, 
and fees payable to Non-Executive Directors. 

The Committee is primarily responsible for making recommendations to the Board on: 
➢ 

the overarching executive remuneration framework; 

➢ 

➢ 

➢ 

the  operation  of  incentive  plans  (if  any)  which  apply  to  the  executive  team,  including  key  performance  indicators  and 
performance hurdles; 

the remuneration levels of executive directors and other KMP; and 

the fees payable to non-executive directors. 

The Committee’s objective is to ensure that remuneration policies and structures are fair and competitive, and aligned with the long-
term interests of the Group. 

The Corporate Governance Statement provides further information on the role of the Remuneration Committee. 

B. 

Remuneration Policy 

The  remuneration  policy  of  Globe  Metals  &  Mining  Limited  and  its  Controlled  Entities  has  been  designed  to  align  Director  and 
executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an 
annual basis  in  line with market rates and offering specific incentives, from time to time, that are based on  share  price and  key 
performance areas affecting the Group’s financial results.  

The  Board  of  Directors  of  Globe  believes  the  remuneration  policy  is  appropriate  and  effective  in  its  ability  to  attract,  retain  and 
motivate suitably qualified and experienced Directors and executives to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence 
between the Directors, executives and the Company’s shareholders.  

C. 

Remuneration Arrangements 

All  executives  receive  a  base  salary  (which  is  based  on  factors  such  as  length  of  service  and  experience)  and  superannuation  (in 
accordance  with  relevant  legislation).  Executive  remuneration  may  also  incorporate  a  component  of  performance  based 
remuneration.  

The  Board  reviews  executive  packages  annually  by  reference  to  the  economic  entity’s  performance,  executive  performance  and 
comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries. 

Non-executive directors are remunerated at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. 
The Board determines payments to 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 $600,000).  

The Board of Directors may exercise discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options.  

All remuneration paid to Directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Options are independently 
valued by corporate advisers using the Black-Scholes method and Monte Carlo Model.  Shares are valued at Market Value.

D. 

Performance Based Remuneration 

The Company believes that linking the remuneration of  Directors and executives with performance will be effective in increasing 
shareholder wealth. 

From time to time, the Board of Directors may  establish performance targets and  a  bonus system for the purposes of providing 
directors  and  executives  with  short-term  and  long-term  performance  incentives.    Such  incentives  are  offered  to  increase  goal 
congruence between shareholders and directors and executives.  

There are currently no incentive programs in place, apart from options which have previously been granted to the Managing Director 
and CEO. The options were not based on a percentage of salary.  The Board of Directors issued the options to the Managing Director 
and CEO as an incentive.

Under the ‘two strikes’ legislation which came into effect on 1 July 2011, if at least 25% of the eligible votes cast on the adoption of 
the remuneration report of the Company at two consecutive annual general meetings are against the adoption of the remuneration 
report, the Company must put to the shareholders a ‘spill resolution’.  If the spill resolution is passed, the Company must hold another 
general meeting of the Company’s shareholders (“spill meeting”) within 90 days of passing of the resolution.   

At the Company’s 2017 AGM, a resolution to adopt the prior year remuneration report was put to a shareholder vote pursuant to 
the requirements of Section 250R92) of the Corporations Act 2001.  Key Management Personnel, and their Closely Related Party(s), 
were  excluded  from  voting  on  the  resolution.    99.45%  of  votes  were  cast  against  adoption  of  the  resolution  reflecting  a  second 
successive strike, and hence, a spill resolution was put to shareholders at the Company’s 2017 AGM.  The spill resolution was passed 
at the Company’s 2017 AGM resulting in a requirement to call a spill meeting.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2018 

A spill meeting was held on 17 January 2018 at which all directorships were vacated as required, with the exception of the Managing 
Director, and resolutions were put to shareholders appoint persons as directors as per the notice of meeting.  The shareholders of 
the Company voted to return all of the directors who had been required to vacate office and no new directors were appointed. Given 
that the spill meeting resulted in all existing Directors being re-elected and no new Directors nominating, and in the absence of any 
feedback being received from shareholders despite request from the Company, the Board has taken no further action. 

No comments were made on the remuneration report at the 2017 AGM or at the 2018 Spill Meeting.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2018 

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The financial report of Globe Metals & Mining Limited for the year ended 30 June 2018 was authorised for issue in accordance with 
a resolution of directors on 28 September 2018. 

The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation of the financial report.  The 
accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. This financial report includes the consolidated financial 
statements and notes of Globe Metals & Mining Limited (‘Globe’ or ‘the Company’) and its controlled entities (‘Consolidated Entity’ 
or ‘Group’). Globe is a for-profit entity. 

a. 

Basis of Preparation  

The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, 
Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) 
and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for profit-oriented entities. 

(i)  Compliance with IFRS  

The financial report of Globe Metals & Mining Limited and controlled entities complies with Australian Accounting Standards, 
which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (‘AIFRS’). Compliance with AIFRS ensures 
that  the  financial  report,  comprising  the  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto,  also  complies  with  International  Financial 
Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). 

(ii)  New and amended standards adopted by the group 

None of the new standards and amendments to standards that are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 
1 July 2017 affected any of the amounts recognised in the current period or any prior period and are not likely to affect future 
periods. 

(iii) Historical Cost Convention 

The financial report has been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of available-for-sale financial 
assets which is measured at fair value. 

(iv) Critical accounting estimates 

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management 
to  exercise  its  judgement  in  the  process  of  applying  the  group’s  accounting  policies.  The  areas  involving  a  higher  degree  of 
judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in 
note 3. 

b. 

Principles of Consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2017. Control 
is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability 
to affect those returns through its power over the investee.  

Specifically, the Group controls an investee if, and only if, the Group has:  
► Power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee)  
► Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee  
► The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns  

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control. To support this presumption and when the Group 
has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in 
assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:  
► The contractual arrangement(s) with the other vote holders of the investee  
► Rights arising from other contractual arrangements  
► The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights  

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or 
more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and 
ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed 
of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the 
Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2018 

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Profit or loss and each component of OCI are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling 
interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the 
financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group 
assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated  
In full on consolidation.  

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.  

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the related assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest 
and other components of equity, while any resultant gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any investment retained is recognised 
at fair value.  

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 board of directors. 

d. 

Foreign Currency Translation 

Functional and presentation currency 
The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in 
which that entity operates, currently being the Australian Dollar for each of the entities. The consolidated financial statements are 
presented in Australian dollars which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. 

Transactions and balances 
Foreign  currency  transactions  are  translated  into  functional  currency  using  the  exchange  rates  prevailing  at  the  date  of  the 
transaction.  Foreign  currency  monetary  items  are  translated  at  the  year-end  exchange  rate.  Non-monetary  items  measured  at 
historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value 
are reported at the exchange rate at the date when the fair values were determined. 

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit and loss for the period, except where 
deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. 

e. 

Revenue Recognition 

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.  

Interest income is recognised as the interest accrues at an effective interest rate. 

f. 

Reserves 

The AFS reserve represents the gains and losses of available-for-sale financial assets. 

g. 

Income Tax 

Current Tax 
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax 
loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. 
Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).  

Deferred Tax 
Deferred tax is accounted for using the liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the 
carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items. 

In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the 
extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible temporary differences or unused 
tax losses and tax offsets can be utilised. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences 
giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which 
affects  neither  taxable  income  nor  accounting  profit.  Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  measured  at  the  tax  rates  that  are 
expected to apply to the period(s) when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates (and tax 
laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets 
reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Consolidated Entity expects, at the reporting date, 
to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2018 

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Current and Deferred Taxation 
Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, except when it relates 
to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where it arises 
from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of  goodwill or 
excess. 

The amount of benefits  brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on  the assumption that no adverse 
change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the Company will derive sufficient future assessable income 
to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law. 

h. 

Leases 

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

Finance leases are capitalised, recording an asset and a liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including 
any guaranteed residual values.   

Leased assets are depreciated on a diminishing value 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 are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period. 

Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as expenses 
in the periods in which they are incurred. 

Impairment  

Financial Assets 

i. 
(i) 
The group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial 
assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is 
objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss 
event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial 
assets that can be reliably estimated. In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged 
decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered an indicator that the assets are impaired.  

For loans and receivables, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present 
value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s 
original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss. 
If there is objective evidence of impairment for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference 
between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in 
profit or loss – is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss. 

Exploration and Evaluation Assets 

(ii) 
Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment when any of the following facts and circumstances exists: 
- 

the term of the exploration licence in the specific area of interest has expired during the reporting period or will expire in the 
near future, and is not expected to be renewed; 
substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area are not budgeted nor 
planned; 

- 

-  exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area of interest have not led to the discovery of commercially 
viable quantities of mineral resources and the decision was made to discontinue such activities in the specific area of interest; 
or 
sufficient data exists to indicate that, although a development in the specific area of interest is likely to proceed, the carrying 
amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale. 

- 

Where a potential impairment is indicated, an assessment is performed for each cash generating unit (“CGU”) which is no larger 
than the area of interest. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of the CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable 
amount. 

Non-financial Assets Other Than Exploration and Evaluation Assets 

(iii) 
The carrying amounts of the Consolidated Entity’s non-financial assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether 
there  is  any  indication  of  impairment.    If  any  such  indication  exists  then  the  asset’s  recoverable  amount  is  estimated.    The 
recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

j. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

Cash and short-term deposits in the statement of financial position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with 
an original maturity of three months or less. 

For the purposes of the Statement Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net 
of outstanding bank overdrafts. 

k. 

        Term Deposits 

Term deposits in the statement of financial position comprise of term deposits held by the bank which have a maturity of between 
three and six months. 

l. 

Exploration and Evaluation Assets 

Exploration and evaluation costs, including the costs of acquiring licences, are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets on an 
area of interest basis.  Costs incurred before the Consolidated Entity has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are recognised 
in the statement of comprehensive income. 

Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights of interest are current and either: 
- 
- 

the expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest; or 
activities in the area of interest have not, at the reporting 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. 

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in 
relation to that area of interest. 

Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable, 
exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified from 
exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  to  mining  property  and  development  assets  within  property,  plant  and  equipment  and 
depreciated over the life of the mine. 

m. 

Investments and Other Financial Assets 

Classification 
The group classifies its financial  assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and 
receivables, held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which 
the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and, in the case 
of assets classified as held-to-maturity, re-evaluates this designation at the end of each reporting date. 

(i)   Loans and receivables 
Loans  and  receivables  are  non-derivative  financial  assets  with  fixed  or  determinable  payments  that  are  not  quoted  in  an  active 
market. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting period 
which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in trade and other receivables (note 9) in the balance 
sheet. 

(ii)  Available-for-sale financial assets 
Available-for-sale financial assets, comprising principally marketable equity securities, are non-derivatives that are either designated 
in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures 
or  management  intends  to  dispose  of  the  investment  within  12  months  of  the  end  of  the  reporting  period.  Investments  are 
designated as available-for-sale if they do not have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments and management intends 
to hold them for the medium to long term. 

Financial assets – reclassification 
The group may choose to reclassify a non-derivative trading financial asset out of the held for trading category if the financial asset 
is no longer held for the purpose of selling it in the near term. Financial assets other than loans and receivables are permitted to be 
reclassified out of the held for trading category only in rare circumstances arising from a single event that is unusual and  highly 
unlikely to recur in the near term. In addition, the group may choose to reclassify financial assets that would meet the definition of 
loans and receivables out of the held for trading or available-for-sale categories if the group has the intention and ability to hold 
these financial assets for the foreseeable future or until maturity at the date of reclassification.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 
30 JUNE 2018 

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Reclassifications  are  made  at  fair  value  as  of  the  reclassification  date.  Fair  value  becomes  the  new  cost  or  amortised  cost  as 
applicable,  and  no  reversals  of  fair  value  gains  or  losses  recorded  before  reclassification  date  are  subsequently  made.  Effective 
interest  rates  for  financial  assets  reclassified  to  loans  and  receivables  and  held-to-maturity  categories  are  determined  at  the 
reclassification date. Further increases in estimates of cash flows adjust effective interest rates prospectively. 

Recognition and de-recognition 
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the group commits to purchase 
or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or 
have been transferred and the group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When securities classified 
as available-for-sale are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to 
profit or loss as gains and losses from investment securities.  

Measurement 
At initial recognition, the group  measures a financial asset at its  fair value  plus, in the case of a financial asset  not at fair value 
through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of 
financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss. Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity 
investments are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains 
or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are presented in 
profit or loss within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair 
value through profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss as part of revenue from continuing operations when the group’s right to 
receive payments is established. Interest income from these financial assets is included in the net gains/(losses). 

Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in a foreign currency and classified as available-for-sale are analysed 
between translation differences resulting from changes in amortised cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount 
of  the  security.  The  translation  differences  related  to  changes  in  the  amortised  cost  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss,  and  other 
changes in carrying amount are recognised in other comprehensive income. Changes in the fair value of other monetary and non-
monetary securities classified as available-for-sale are recognised in other comprehensive income.  

Details on how the fair value of financial instruments is determined are disclosed in note 2. 

n. 

Plant and Equipment 

Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.  

The depreciable amount of all Motor vehicle and Leasehold assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives.  
Plant  and  equipment,  Furniture  and  fittings  and  Software  assets  are  depreciated  using  the  diminishing  value  method.  The 
depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets vary from 3% to 40% with the average rate being 30%. 

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the statement of 
comprehensive income.  

o. 

Trade and Other Receivables 

Trade  receivables,  which  generally  have  30-90  day  terms,  are  recognised  initially  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  measured  at 
amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts.  

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when 
identified. An allowance for impairment is raised when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the 
debt. 

p. 

Trade and Other Payables 

Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at cost which is the fair value of consideration to be paid in the future 
for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Consolidated Entity. 

Payables to related parties are carried at the principal amount. Interest, when charged by the lender, is recognised as an expense 
on an accrual basis.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

q. 

Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) where, as a result of a past event, it is 
probable that an outlay of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate 
can be made of the amount of the obligation. 

Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement 
is recognised as a separate asset but only when the  reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is 
presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of any reimbursement. 

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a 
pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the 
liability. 

Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.  

r. 

Employee Benefits 

Short-term obligations  
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled 
within  12  months  after  the  end  of  the  period  in  which  the  employees  render  the  related  service  are  recognised  in  respect  of 
employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities 
are settled. The liability for annual leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits. All other short-term employee benefit 
obligations are presented as payables. 

Other long-term employee benefit obligations  
The liability for long service leave and annual leave which is not expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period 
in which the employees render the related service is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present 
value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period 
using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee 
departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the end of the reporting period 
on high quality corporate bonds with terms and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. 
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer 
settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur. 

Retirement benefit obligations  
All employees of the group are entitled to benefits from the group’s superannuation plan on retirement, disability or death or can 
direct the group to make contributions to a defined contribution plan of their choice.  

Contributions to superannuation funds are recognised as an expense as they become payable. Prepaid contributions are recognised 
as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available. 

Equity Settled Compensation 
The  Group  provides  benefits  to  employees  (including  directors)  of  the  Group  in  the  form  of  share-based  payment  transactions, 
whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (“equity-settled transaction”). 

The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they 
are granted. The fair value is determined by a valuation by using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the 
performance  conditions  are  fulfilled,  ending  on  the  date  on  which  the  relevant  employees  become  fully  entitled  to  the  award 
(“vesting date”). 

The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to 
which  the  vesting  period  has  expired  and  (ii)  the  number  of  awards  that,  in  the  opinion  of  the  directors  of  the  Company,  will 
ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at reporting date. No adjustment is made for  the 
likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value 
at grant date. 

Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been 
modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification, as 
measured at the date of modification.

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet 
recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated 
as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the 
original award, as described in the previous paragraph. 

s. 

Contributed Equity 

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.  Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in 
equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.  

Where any group company purchases the company’s equity instruments, for example as the result of a share buy-back or a share-
based payment plan, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is 
deducted from equity attributable to the owners as treasury shares until the shares are cancelled or reissued. 

Where  such  ordinary  shares  are  subsequently  reissued,  any  consideration  received,  net  of  any  directly  attributable  incremental 
transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the owners. 

t. 

Earnings Per Share 

Basic earnings per share 
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing: 
- 
-  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary  shares  outstanding  during  the  financial  year,  adjusted  for  bonus  elements  in 

the profit attributable to owners of the company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares 

ordinary shares issued during the year and excluding treasury shares 

Diluted earnings per share 
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account: 
- 
after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and 
-  weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive 

potential ordinary shares. 

u. 

Goods and Services Tax and other Value Added Taxes 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of Goods and Services Tax (GST) and other Value Added Taxes 
(VAT),  except  where  the  amount  of  GST  or  VAT  incurred  is  not  recoverable  from  the  applicable  taxation  authority.    In  these 
circumstances, the GST and VAT are recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.  
Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST and VAT. 

The net amount of GST or VAT recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as a current asset or liability in the 
statement of financial position. 
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flow on a gross basis.  The GST and VAT components of cash flows arising from 
investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authorities are classified as operating cash 
flows. 

v. 

Rounding of amounts 

The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in financial/Directors’ report) Instrument 2016/191. 
Therefore, amounts in the directors’ report have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, to the 
nearest dollar. 

w. 

Parent entity financial information 

The financial information for the parent entity, Globe Metals and Mining Limited, disclosed in note 28 has been prepared on the 
same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out below. 

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities 

(i) 
Investments  in  subsidiaries,  associates  and  joint  venture  entities  are  accounted  for  at  cost  in  the  financial  statements  of  Globe

New accounting standards and interpretations 

The Group applied all new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, which are effective for annual periods 
beginning on 1 July 2017. Although these new standards and amendments applied for the first time in 2018, they did not have a 
material impact on the annual consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Summary 

AASB 9 

Financial 
Instruments 

AASB 9 (December 2014) is a new standard which 
replaces AASB 139. This new version supersedes 
AASB 9 issued in December 2009 (as amended) 
and AASB 9 (issued in December 2010) and 
includes a model for classification and 
measurement, a single, forward-looking 
‘expected loss’ impairment model and a 
substantially-reformed approach to hedge 
accounting. 
The Standard is available for early adoption. The 
own credit changes can be early adopted in 
isolation without otherwise changing the 
accounting for financial instruments. 

Classification and measurement 
AASB 9 includes requirements for a simpler 
approach for classification and measurement of 
financial assets compared with the requirements 
of AASB 139.  
The main changes are described below. 
Financial assets 
a. 

Financial assets that are debt instruments will 
be classified based on (1) the objective of 
the entity's business model for managing the 
financial assets; (2) the characteristics of the 
contractual cash flows. 

b.  Allows an irrevocable election on initial 

recognition to present gains and losses on 
investments in equity instruments that are not 
held for trading in other comprehensive 
income. Dividends in respect of these 
investments that are a return on investment 
can be recognised in profit or loss and there 
is no impairment or recycling on disposal of 
the instrument. 

Financial assets can be designated and 
measured at fair value through profit or loss 
at initial recognition if doing so eliminates or 
significantly reduces a measurement or 
recognition inconsistency that would arise 
from measuring assets or liabilities, or 
recognising the gains and losses on them, on 
different bases.

Financial liabilities 

Changes introduced by AASB 9 in respect of 
financial liabilities are limited to the measurement of 
liabilities designated at fair value through profit or 
loss (FVPL) using the fair value option.  
Where the fair value option is used for financial 
liabilities, the change in fair value is to be 
accounted for as follows: 

► 

► 

The change attributable to changes in 
credit risk are presented in other 
comprehensive income (OCI) 

The remaining change is presented in 
profit or loss 

AASB 9 also removes the volatility in profit or loss 
that was caused by changes in the credit risk of 
liabilities elected to be measured at fair value. This 
change in accounting means that gains or losses 
attributable to changes in the entity’s own credit 
risk would be recognised in OCI.  These amounts 
recognised in OCI are not recycled to profit or loss if 
the liability is ever repurchased at a discount. 

Impairment 
The final version of AASB 9 introduces a new 
expected-loss impairment model that will require 
more timely recognition of expected credit losses. 
Specifically, the new Standard requires entities to 
account for expected credit losses from when 
financial instruments are first recognised and to 
recognise full lifetime expected losses on a more 
timely basis. 

Hedge accounting 
Amendments to AASB 9 (December 2009 & 2010 
editions and AASB 2013-9) issued in December 2013 
included the new hedge accounting requirements, 
including changes to hedge effectiveness testing, 
treatment of hedging costs, risk components that 
can be hedged and disclosures. 
Consequential amendments were also made to 
other standards as a result of AASB 9, introduced by 
AASB 2009-11 and superseded by AASB 2010-7, 
AASB 2010-10 and AASB 2014-1 – Part E. 
AASB 2014-7 incorporates the consequential 
amendments arising from the issuance of AASB 9 in 
Dec 2014. 
AASB 2014-8 limits the application of the existing 
versions of AASB 9 (AASB 9 (December 2009) and 
AASB 9 (December 2010)) from 1 February 2015 and 
applies to annual reporting periods beginning on 
after 1 January 2015.

AASB 15 specifies the accounting treatment for 
revenue arising from contracts with customers 
(except for contracts within the scope of other 
accounting standards such as leases or financial 
instruments). The core principle of AASB 15 is that an 
entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of 
promised goods or services to customers in an 
amount that reflects the consideration to which the 
entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those 
goods or services. An entity recognises revenue in 
accordance with that core principle by applying 
the following steps: 
(a)

(b) 
obligations in the contract 
(c)

the performance obligations in the contract

The key features of AASB 16 are as follows:

1 July 2019 

Lessee accounting 

Based on initial 
assessment, the 
group will be 
required to 
recognize 
additional right of 
use assets and 
corresponding 
liabilities  in the 
statement of 
financial position 
for the Group’s 
current operating 
leases. In 
addition, 
operating lease 
expense will be 
replaced with 
amortization of 
the right of use 
asset and interest 
expense. This 
impact is 
however not 
expected to be 
material. 

1 January 
2019 

1 July 2019 

The Group is in 
the process of 
assessing the 
impact of this 
interpretation. 

•  Lessees are required to recognise assets 

and liabilities for all leases with a term of 
more than 12 months, unless the 
underlying asset is of low value. 

•  A lessee measures right-of-use assets 

similarly to other non-financial assets and 
lease liabilities similarly to other financial 
liabilities.  

•  Assets and liabilities arising from a lease 

are initially measured on a present value 
basis. The measurement includes non-
cancellable lease payments (including 
inflation-linked payments), and also 
includes payments to be made in 
optional periods if the lessee is 
reasonably certain to exercise an option 
to extend the lease, or not to exercise an 
option to terminate the lease. 

•  AASB 16 contains disclosure requirements 

for lessees.  

Lessor accounting 

•  AASB 16 substantially carries forward the 

lessor accounting requirements in AASB 
117. Accordingly, a lessor continues to 
classify its leases as operating leases or 
finance leases, and to account for those 
two types of leases differently. 

•  AASB 16 also requires enhanced 

disclosures to be provided by lessors that 
will improve information disclosed about 
a lessor’s risk exposure, particularly to 
residual value risk. 

AASB 16 supersedes: 
(a) AASB 117 Leases 
(b) Interpretation 4 Determining whether an 
Arrangement contains a Lease 
(c) SIC-15 Operating Leases—Incentives 
(d) SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions 
Involving the Legal Form of a Lease 

The new standard will be effective for annual 
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Early 
application is permitted, provided the new revenue 
standard, AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with 
Customers, has been applied, or is applied at the 
same date as AASB 16. 

The Interpretation clarifies the application of the 
recognition and  
measurement criteria in AASB 112 Income Taxes 
when there is  
uncertainty over income tax treatments. The 
Interpretation  
specifically addresses the following:   
► Whether an entity considers uncertain tax 
treatments separately   
► The assumptions an entity makes about the 
examination of tax treatments by taxation 
authorities   
► How an entity determines taxable profit (tax loss), 
tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and 
tax rates   
► How an entity considers changes in facts and 
circumstances.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT  

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise of cash. The Group also has other financial instruments such as trade and 
other debtors and creditors, which arise directly from its operations, and available for sale financial assets. 

The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments and the Group’s policies for managing these risks are summarised 
below: 

Interest Rate Risk 

The Group does not have short or long-term cash deposits or debt, and therefore this risk is minimal.  An analysis by maturities is 
provided in (i) below. 

Credit Risk 

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group.  
The Group entity has adopted the policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or 
other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. 
The credit risk on financial assets of the Group is reflected in those assets' carrying amount net of any provisions for impairment. 

The Group currently holds majority of its cash and cash equivalents with National Australia Bank with a credit rating of Aa3. The 
Group believes the credit risk exposure is negligible given the strong credit rating of the counterparty. 

Foreign currency risk 
The Group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies arising from the sale and purchase of goods and services in currencies 
other than the Group’s functional currency.  The majority of expenses incurred are in AUD and therefore risk is not  significant. 
Monetary assets and liabilities of the Group denominated in foreign currencies are not material to the Group. 

Concentration risk 
The parent entity is exposed to concentration risk due to 94% of its cash and cash equivalents being held within the one financial 
institution – National Australia Bank.  The Group manages this risk through monitoring of the credit rating of the institution. 

Liquidity risk 
The  Group  manages  liquidity  risk  by  monitoring  forecast  cash  flows  and  ensuring  that  adequate  short-term  cash  facilities  are 
maintained.  At the end of the year the group held deposits at call of $9,338,603 (2017: $11,347,390) which are expected to readily 
generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk. 

Interest rate risk exposures

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk and the effective weighted average interest rate for each class of financial assets and 
financial liabilities is set out in the following table:

The Group has performed a sensitivity analysis in relation to interest income and movements in interest rates on financial assets 
and liabilities. The analysis highlights the effect on the current year’s pre-tax loss which would have resulted from movement in 
interest rates with all other variables remaining constant.

Fair value hierarchy 
All financial instruments for which fair value is recognised or disclosed are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, based on 
the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole, as follows: 

➢ 
➢ 

➢ 

Level 1 – Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities 
Level  2  –  Valuation  techniques  for  which  the  lowest  level  input  that  is  significant  to  the  fair  value  measurement  is 
directly or indirectly observable 
Level 3 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurements is 
unobservable 

For  all  asset  and  liabilities  that  are  recognised  at  fair  value  on  recurring  basis,  the  group  determines  whether  transfers  have 
occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the 
fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. 

The available-for-sale financial assets are level one in the fair value hierarchy.

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS  

The  preparation  of  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements  and  estimates  relating  to  the  carrying 
amounts of certain assets and liabilities.  Actual results may differ from  the estimates made.  Estimates and assumptions are 
reviewed on an ongoing basis. 

The key estimates and assumptions tat have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain 
assets and liabilities within the next accounting period are: 

Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

(i) 
The Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure results in expenditure being capitalised for an area of 
interest where it is considered likely to be recoverable by future exploitation or sale or where the activities have not reached a 
stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. This policy requires management to make certain 
estimates  as  to  future  events  and  circumstances,  in  particular  whether  an  economically  viable  extraction  operation  can  be 
established. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalised 
the  expenditure  under  the  policy,  a  judgement  is  made  that  recovery  of  the  expenditure  is  unlikely,  the  relevant  capitalised 
amount will be written off to profit and loss. Refer to note 12 for details of the judgement applied in the current period in relation 
to exploration and evaluation expenditure. 

Income taxes  

(ii) 
Judgement  is  required  in  assessing  whether  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  recognised  on  the  statement  of  financial 
position.  Deferred tax assets, including those arising from temporary differences, are recognised only when it is considered more 
likely than not that they will be recovered, which is dependent on the generation of future assessable income of a nature and of 
an amount sufficient to enable the benefits to be utilised. Refer to note  7 for details of the judgement applied in the current 
period in relation to income taxes. 

Tax provisions 

(iii) 
Judgement is required in calculating tax provisions relating to potential tax obligations in foreign jurisdictions where the 
legislation and case law is not established.  Tax provisions are recognised when it is considered more likely than not that an 
amount will be payable.  Refer to note 14 for details of the judgement applied in the current period in relation to tax provisions.  

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION  

The consolidated entity has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the 
Board of Directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. 

The consolidated entity has two reportable segments which are based on the stage of development of its projects, which are 
broadly in either of two groups: those in the exploration phase or those in the evaluation stage.  Unallocated results, assets and 
liabilities represent corporate amounts that are not core to the reportable segments. 

Prior period information may be restated to reflect the current composition of reportable segments.

Kanyika Niobium Project 
The Directors have considered the requirements of AASB 6: Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources, and have reviewed 
the carrying value of exploration and evaluation expenditures that relate to the Kanyika Niobium Project.  Based on the review, the 
directors consider the carrying value of the Kanyika Niobium Project is supported by the anticipated future value.  Furthermore, there 
are no indications that the carrying value of the Kanyika Niobium Project was impaired at 30 June 2018.   

Chiziro Graphite Project 
The carrying value of the Chiziro Graphite Project was written down to nil at 30 June 2017 following an assessment of the 
recoverable amount of the Chiziro Graphite Project 

Other 
The value of the Group’s interest in exploration expenditure is dependent upon: 

- 
- 
- 

- 

the continuance of the consolidated entity’s rights to tenure of the areas of interest; 
the results of future exploration; and 
the recoupment of costs through successful development and exploitation of the areas of interest, or alternatively, by their 
sale. 
no significant changes in laws and regulations that greatly impact the company’s ability to maintain tenure. 

The Group’s exploration properties may be subjected to claim(s) under native title, or contain sacred sites, or sites of significance to 
indigenous people.  As a result, exploration  properties or areas  within the tenements may be subject to exploration restrictions, 
mining restrictions and/or claims for compensation.   At this time, it is  not possible to quantify  whether such claims exist, or the 
quantum of such claims.

The Provision for Foreign Tax is based upon assessments received for value-added tax, non-residents tax and withholding tax 
from the Malawi Revenue Authority.  The provision has been estimated by the Company by considering advice from their tax 
experts and by estimating the expected outcome of the assessments based on the potential success of the claims. The 
Company is currently defending all of these claims.

(b)  Management of Share Capital  

The Directors primary objectivity is to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital available to the Group.  
At reporting date, the Group has no external borrowings. 

The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. 
Unmarketable Parcel Share Buy-Back 
An unmarketable parcel share buy-back program for holders of parcels of Globe shares with a market value of less than $500 was 
completed on 27 March 2018.  Under the program, the Company bought-back the shareholdings of holders of unmarketable 
parcels who did not elect to retain their shares, resulting in the Company buying back 3,806,689 shares at a total cost of $72k , 
representing a Buy-Back price of 1.9 cents per share. 
 Capital Risk Management 
The consolidated entity’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it 
can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce 
the cost of capital. 

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the consolidated entity may adjust the amount of dividends, return capital to 
shareholders, issue/buy-back shares or sell assets to reduce debt. 

The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as value 
adding  relative  to  the  current  parent  entity’s  share  price  at  the  time  of  investment.  The  consolidated  entity  is  not  currently 
pursuing additional investments in the short term as it continues to integrate and grow its existing businesses in order to maximise 
synergies. 

The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2017 annual report. 

(c) 

Terms of Ordinary Shares 

Ordinary shares participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in proportion to the number of shares 
held and in proportion to the amount paid up on the shares held. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value. 

At shareholders meetings each ordinary share is entitled to one vote in proportion to the paid up amount of the share when a 
poll is called, otherwise each shareholder has one vote on a show of hands. 

At the end of reporting period, there are 465,922,373 shares on issue. 

(d) 

Terms of Options 

At the end of reporting period, there were 2,000,000 options over unissued shares as follows: 
1,000,000 unlisted options, exercisable at $0.20 on or before 30 June 2019. 
1,000,000 unlisted options, exercisable at $0.25 on or before 30 June 2020.

Independent auditor's report to the members of Globe Metals & Mining 
Limited 

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Globe Metals & Mining Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries 
(collectively the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 
2018, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated 
statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes 
to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' 
declaration. 

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 
2001, including: 

a) 

giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2018 
and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and 

b) 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

Basis for opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial 
Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor 
independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting 
Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the 
Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other 
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.  

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

Key audit matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our 
audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit 
of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide a separate 
opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter 
is provided in that context. 

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the 
Financial Report section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit 
included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material 
misstatement of the financial report. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures 
performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying 
financial report.

1.  Carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation  

Why significant  

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets is 
subjective as it is based on the Group’s ability, and 
intention, to continue to explore the asset. The carrying 
value is also impacted by the results of exploration work. 
This creates a risk that the amounts stated in the 
consolidated financial statements may not be recoverable. 

Refer to note 12 – Exploration and evaluation assets to the 
consolidated financial statements for the amounts held on 
the consolidated statement of financial position by the 
Group as at 30 June 2018 and related disclosure. 

We evaluated the Group’s assessment of the carrying value 
of exploration and evaluation assets. In obtaining sufficient 
audit evidence, we: 

•  Considered the Group’s right to explore in the relevant 

exploration area which included obtaining and assessing 
supporting documentation such as license agreements 

•  Considered the Group’s intention to carry out 

exploration and evaluation activity in the relevant 
exploration area which included assessment of the 
Group’s cash-flow forecast models, as well as enquiries 
with senior management and Directors as to the 
intentions and strategy of the Group 

•  Examined the Group’s analysis of the commercial 

viability of results relating to exploration and evaluation 
activities carried out in the relevant licensed area to 
determine if anything has come to our attention that 
indicates they are not viable 

•  Assessed the ability to finance any planned future 

exploration and evaluation activity. 

2.  Provision for foreign tax 

Why significant  

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The Group is subject to the tax laws of both Australia and 
Malawi. As disclosed in note 14 to the consolidated financial 
statements, the Group recognised a provision for foreign tax 
based upon assessments received, which the Group is 
currently disputing. In determining the amount of the 
provision recognised, the Group has taken into account legal 
precedent and the advice of external experts. This is an area 
of significant judgment as detailed in note 3(iii) of the 
consolidated financial statements. 

We evaluated the provision for foreign tax and assessed 
correspondence from tax authorities and external tax 
advisors.  

We assessed the adequacy of the taxation provisions by 
considering factors such as the risk profile of each matter. 
We evaluated the judgments made in relation to the 
likelihood of litigation from tax authorities by comparing the 
Group's assessment against our own independent views 
which are based on our perception of risk. We involved our 
tax specialists in performing these procedures. 

Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information 
included in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report, but does not include the financial report and our 
auditor’s report thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report and 
our related assurance opinion. 

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, 
in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or 
our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited 
Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation 

For personal use only 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other 
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Responsibilities of the Directors for the financial report 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true 
and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for 
such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial 
report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or 
error. 

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the 
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease 
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes 
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit 
conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material 
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, 
individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of 
users taken on the basis of this financial report. 

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional 
judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or 
error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is 
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material 
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve 
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s internal control.  

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates 
and related disclosures made by the directors. 

Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, 
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or 
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we 
conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to 
the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our 
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. 
However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, 
and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that 
achieves fair presentation. 

Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business 
activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the 
direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit 
opinion. 

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the 
audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we 
identify during our audit. 

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements 
regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may 
reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. 

From the matters communicated to the directors, we determine those matters that were of most 
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current year and are therefore the key audit 
matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public 
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should 
not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be 
expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. 

Report on the audit of the remuneration report 

Opinion on the remuneration report 

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 8 to 12 of the directors' report for the year 
ended 30 June 2018. 

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Globe Metals & Mining Limited for the year ended 30 June 
2018, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
